that the first schedule to bo pending
would be the schedule covering farm
products.' 'I am surprised also,' ho
declared, 'that my colleague, who has
been fighting bravely and gallantly
to unshackle the members of the
house from the tyranny of tho rules,
should undertake to bring some
shackles into the senate. Yet my
distinguished colleague seeks to
make it impossible for me to defend
the only products of our home peo
ple.' Demanding to know who was
dissatisfied with the tariff, the sen
ator declared the time had come to
end the tariff discussion. He agreed
with President Taft, he said, that the
country needed a rest."
Tho senate judiciary committee

BRYAN AND HIS PARTY
It is news when Mr. Bryan is in
vited to a democratic meeting. Tho
managers of the coming Baltimore
conference take special pains to say
that Mr. Bryan will be invited. The
amount of protesting it takes to
prove that Mr. Bryan is still to bo
recognized as "a" democratic leader
to saynothlng of "the" leader
points where lies the largest spot on
the democratic sun, aB viewed
through the eastern telescope.
For Mr. Bryan will not go. No
man willingly views the arrangement
for his own execution, and Mr. Bryan
understands perfectly that tho Balti
more meeting Is part of the plan to
reorganize and "conservatize" and
de-Bryanize tho democratic party for
1912 as was done for 1904. If he is
to be kicked out he will naturally
prefer absent treatment.
This situation presents no slight
problem to tho Parkerizers. They
couldn't get along with Bryan if they
would, and wouldn't if they could.
But they remember what happened
in 1904. The Bryan they pulverized
and cast to the winds then took the
platform for their candidate, but his
followers voted for Roosevelt. Last
week's Commoner has a letter from a
Virginia democrat saying: "William
Jennings Bryan commands a demo
cratic .following lnrr?nr thnt v
other llvine American. To nnt imun
him in said conference it would bo a
'Hamlet without a ffhnKL Mr
Bryan's personal following Is at least
larger than that of any othar domo-
Crat, HOW throw him flown nnil nnf
loso his supporters?
Tho only way open, which yet
leaves a chanco to win, la tho one
to which tho reorganize arc appar
ently steering. Mr. Bryan's strength
is in tho west and south. The south
need not bo considered. It has to go
democratic on tho negro question re
gardless of presidential preferences.
Tho west will bo abandoned to the
republican progressives, and the fight
made for the east. There tho repu
diation of Bryan may gain them an
much support, particularly financial,
as it loses. And tho solid south, with
tho addition of Now York, New Jer
sey, Connecticut, Massachusetts,
Maine, Delaware and Ohio or Indiana
has votes enough to elect a president.

NEBRASKANS LOVED IIEIt
Mrs. Vanessa M. Goff, who passed
from this life last Thursday morning,
has been a resident of Lincoln during
tho past fifteen years. Being of an
exceedingly quiet and retiring dispo
sition, she was not known to a wldo
circle of acquaintances, but by a few
warm friends with whom bIio camo in
contact in the lines of new and pro
gressive thought, she was esteemed
as a woman of more than ordinary
Intettlgenco and. mental energy,
which she maintained until the last.
Sho is the last of a family of eight
brothers and sisters who, with their
parents, Spencer H. and Fanny M.
Smalley, moved from western New
York in 1843 to Warren county, Illi
nois', where sho resided tho greater
part of her life. From Illinois sho
moved to Kearney, Nob., thence to
Lincoln.
Physically fragile, with .large spir
itual and mental development,
lived on tho higher plane of life,
seeking always tho host In thought
and deed; full of gcncrousi, helpful,
self-denying impulses, ever nympa
thetlc with tho Joys and sorrowB of
others, UiIh gentlo woman faced
bravely, with no fears, tho waking
in an unknown world. It wan flttlnK
that on UiIh occasion of bidding a
loving good-byo to all that remained
of tho physical tho simple service
should consist of tho reading by tho
Rev. Arthur L. Wcathorly of All
Soul's church of hor favorite selec
tion from Ralph Waldo Emorson'B
Immortal address, beginning: "In
thlB refulgent summer It ha been a
luxury to draw tho breath of life;"
also "Tho Problem," and Whlttier'fl
"Eternal Goodness."
Sho had lived to a rlno ncn and
now only tho tender memory of her
gentlonc&B and tho music of her volco
remains as a benediction to hor sur
viving daughtor and two sons.
Gono with many a Houl-queatlon-ing
unanswered, may sho find In
somo "World Beautiful" all hor love
liest dreams como true. Lincoln

both interest and profit."
Hon. Champ Clark sayo: "I havo read 'Blahop Sunbeam
and am delighted with it. The parable of the Good Samari
tan and Saint Paul's Rhapsody on Charity in the thirteenth
chapter of the First Corinthians are among my favorites In
the Bible, and your book seems to be bottomed on them."
Dr. I. K. Punk, of Funk & Wagnalls Company, publishers
of the Literary Digest says: "'Charming,' 'helpful,' 'ex
ceedingly suggestive,' are some of the adjectives which I

reading It. The whole is a dynamo of sunshine and love.
Sunshine, good nature and love have wonderful power. Tho
world Is raised on the wings of hope and love but is
seldom driven upwards. The wholo book is an Inspiration
of loving service. It is a contribution which I am sure
tho world will not let die."
