Championing the democratic appeal for reten- tion in power, one of the ardent newspaper ad- vocates of Wilson makes this statement: The campaign seems to bid fair to be waged on what the Wilson administration has done rather than upon what the Hughes administration would do. Hughes has made it clear that he would have done nothing that Wilson has done. b Under stress of partisan enthusiasm, this is not correctly put. The record of the democratic party is properly subject to attack, even though Wilson as president has inevitably done things which any president in his place would likewise have done. Hughes has not said that he would have done nothing that Wilson has done, but he has made it clear that Wilson has done a lot of things he would not do. Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, prom- ise to uphold and protect the rights of American citizens everywhere and then wantonly sacrifice them with, at best, warning that they are in for- eign lands or on the seas at their own risk. Hnghes would not, as Wilson has done, pro- claim a poligy of nonintervention in Mexico while actively in'vening to help one blood-steeped faction win over another no more bloody. Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, fritter away two years of valuable time, with Europe aflame with war, pooh poohing preparedness as wholly unnecessary and then suddenly embrace a preparedness program contradicting all his former professions, Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, force on the statute books a tariff in utter disregard of American labor and industry under pretense of reducing the high cost of living, and then, when it failed to produce the needed revenue, or to reduce the cost of living, resort to war qx'en in time of peace. Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, help any combination of interests to club congress hto enacting a law under time limit without investi- gation or information. Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, pledge himself to canal tolls exemption and then go to congress in person to have the exemption law repealed. Hughes would not, as Wilson has done, sol- emnly commit himself to a one-term presidency and then present himself for re-election, No, Wilson has probably done some things that Hyghes would also have doné, but he has done these things, and many more, that Hughes would not have done. 3 Visiting. Nurse Tag Day. Tag days have come to be considered some- thing of a nuisance, and are frowned upon as such, but one to which Omaha cheerfully submits as an annual affair, is promoted in the interest of the Visiting Nurse association. This is one of the better known charities of the city, conducted by philanthropic women who give their time to the work of alleviating suffering and mitigating sickness among the poor. The money raised by their “tagging” goes to benefit the most helpless, and, therefore, the most deserving. The man “who wears a tag today may feel he has con- tributed to a good cause and will know'in advance that ‘what he has given will not be wasted. That is why Omaha will welcome the taggers, and with each mite donated wish the Visiting Nurses all suceess in their work. — | Neutral Mails and British Interference. British interference with neutral rights has reached a point where mails from the United States to the Far East are to be carried by army transports to make certain they may reach their destination without being held up by a British warship, This phase of the war can hardly be noted with satisfaction by Americans, who have been assured by thelr president that everything possible is being done to maintain and protect our rights in all parts of the world. The matter has long been under consideration through the channels of diplomacy. More than a year has elapsed since the first note, protesting against limitation of freedom of the seas and interruption of communication between neutrals, was dis- patched from Washington to London, and as yet no satisfactory reply has been had. Months ago a note specifically dealing with'the mail question was sent, but it rem unanswered. |/ The British cabinet calmly ignores the com- munications from Washington, although unoffi- cial intimations have been received that indicate no modification of existing policy is contemplated in London. So far the administration has not shown even the spirit of Sweden in meeting the situation by retaliation.' OQur government has pursued a course of tacit submission to continued violation of neutrality, which does not square with the repeated protestations. Congress threatens to force the hand of the executive by attaching riders to the emergency revenue measure, but this will only serve to em- phasize the sorry failure of the negotiations of the State department with England. Something New for Tennessee. The presence of a republican candidate for president of the United States on the sacred soil of Dixie is an unusual experience for the demo- crats of the southland. Therefore the reception accorded Mr.‘Hnlhu by the chivalrous Tennes- seeans was essentially partisan democratic, but its ending was typically American. Heckling is not established as a custom of political campaign- ing in the United States, but the imported prac- tice was well encountered by the republican candi- date, who by his fairness and frankness, as well as by his ‘positive force, finally won hearty cheers of the crowds addressed at Nashville. The south is democratic, but'not as solid as the brigadiers would have the public believe. Leaven of a new life is working among the voters there, and a change in political lines is coming. The - old- time ruling oligarchy, tottering on its last legs, will be forced to fight this time as never before, if it withstands again the onslaught of popular government represented in the nation by the re- publican party. —— The Florence bank robber closed his season's engagement with befitting thrills and dash in San Francisco. Had the holdup's discretion equalled his nerve there is no telling how long he might have enjoyed “easy money.” But his methods lacked variety. Sameness of object and means marked his trail and wrought his timely finish. The abounding fruitfulness of Nebraska soil is good to look upon in field, orchard or garden. Its real glory is limited to the range of vision. The state fair exbibits present the complete spectacle in tabloid form, and reveals the fruitful | teamwork of soil and toil.

The members of the North Omaha brass band repaired to the residence of Prof. A. R. Toozer, it being his fiftieth birthday, and after a serenade the boys were ushered in when their leader, A, J. 4. Lauger, stepped forward and with a short speech presented him, on behalf of the boys, with a beautiful gold-headed cane with the inscription “Presented by the N, O. B.” thereon. M. Buck and wife of North Auburn, Neb., are in the city the guests of W. H. Green. President Bechel of the city council was look- ing around for a place to invest his share out of the last appropriation ordinance in a new over- coat to replace the one taken from his office by an enterprising sneak thief, “O'Keefe is sick, Timme is out of town and Corliss and me can't do business alone,” said Mike Leahy in accounting for the closed doors of the county commissioner's rooms.

A fat man playing horse on all fours for the kiddies is a spectacle worth while. It is great fun for the kids and for the fat man if he has the saving grace of humor in his system. Uncle Tow hopped around on all fours, puffing and grunting between times with his 190 odd pounds of avoirdu%oil. Four-year-old Flo tried vainly for a udle hold, astride or sideways, but the abundant girth was too much for short arms. After slipping off the elevation repeatedly the youngster “You big, fat slob!” “Say that again,” commanded Uncle Tow as he collapsed on the sward. “1 said “You big, fat tHing!" But the logy came too late. had entered the surplus flesh. The barb 1916, EPOCHS IN RAILWAY HISTORY Air-brakes were first used on Americap passenger trains in 1868. The total number of railroad employes in the United States is about 1,740,000. More than 50,000 passenger cars are in use on railroads in the United States. More than 2,500,000 cars of all classes are | used by the railroads of this country. The first vestibuled train was put into service on the Pennsylvania road in 1886. The first Pullman sleeping car was put into operation on the Chicago & Alton road i 1865, The aggregate mileage of railway tracks of all kinds in the United States is nearly 380,000 miles. The first raflroad to reach the Missouri river was the Hannibal & St. Joseph road, completed in 1859, One of the first railroads in America was « gravity rosd constructed at Mauch Chunk, Pa., for the transportation of coal. Three years after the Chicago & Alton road established its sleeping car service the first dining ear was put into service.on the same road. The latest available figures show the total operating expenses of the railroads in the United States to be in excess of $2,250,000,- 000 a year. My One of the first American locomotives was built by the West Point (N. Y.) foundry for the South Carolina railroad, which was opened in 1830. The first great trunk line system in America was the Cleveland & Toledo rail- road, which established a continuous line of 1,000 miles between Boston and Chicago in 1868, The first locomotive used in the United States was “The Stourbridge Lion,” brought over from England and put into service on the Honesdale & Carbondale railroad in Pennsylvania in 1829, The South Carolina railroad, which began cperation between Charleston and Augusta in 1888, had a continuous line of 185 miles, which at that time was the longest line of rallroad in the world. The first passenger cars used on American railroads were of the English type. The mod- ern American type of car with the aisle running through the center was first put into general use on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad in the early ’60s. The first railroad in America built ex- pressly for transporting freight and pas- s was the Baltimore & Ohio, which gularly opened in 1830, after having been operated for a time as a horse-rail- road. At the time of opening the road had a total length of fourteen miles, PRSROSRRAY WOMEN’S ACTIVITIES.
