RANDALL SHOWS BRYAN HIS MISTAKE
Thu qunlitii-a of first cls fighting; man art
tliselotioJ a Charles II. Randall unlimbcra fr hit
governorship campaign. Urother Charlpy Bryan
may have more exneriene at an orator, but it ii
Kumlull who poaMBat'i the actual knowledge on pub'
he (lui'Mtioim.
The republican eandidute for governor liit the
lullVcye in hin speech ut Broken How, where he
look up hit opponent' discussion of taxes. Bryan,
it, appi'iim, did not even know what hit total taxes
were, let fileiie the amount going to the state on hi
Ijinutr county farm. From every stump he ha
told with tears in hi voice how his taxea increased
from nlinoht rmthintf under democratic rule to $300
under the repuMican adminiHtration. The informa
tion presented by Randall should mollify the grief
and raxe of his antagonist, for Itryan is thereby as
sured thut his taxes are in reality considerably lesi
thun 300 $222.31, to be exact.
Out of this sum $40.13 goen into the state tress-
ury the remuindcr beinjr. taken by the school dis
trict and county. If Urother Charley desires to re
duce his taxes, he need not neck the uovcrnership,
but had better move out on his quurter section and
look into the finaneiul affairs of the school district.
Since li16 Aryan's taxes for the support of schools
have grown from $10.60 to $163.56. Ilia complaint
on taxes, therefore, fulls on the schools.
Like many other politicians, the democratic can
didate for Kovernor has never taken the time to ana
lyze his tax receipt. Randall's effort to clear up his
erroneous impression that it is the state administra
tion that is laying the heavy burden on him may put
a crimp in Erycn's oratory, but at the same time
it ouKht to put he campaign on a more practical
and truthful basis. Randall, in his business like way,
shows thut out of each dollar paid as taxes Bryan
gives 18 cents to the state, 69 cents to the schools
and 12 cents to the county. Having had his
trouble diagnosed by a practical man, Bryan may
now act nbout reducing taxes at home and cease to
pursue the vague theories that have been leading
him so far afield.
There is something more in this encounter be
tween the republican and democratic candidates
than appears on the surfce. Voters will ask them
selves whether it is safe to entrust the executive
control of a great state to a man who has been re
vealed to lack the business ability to understand
that not all the taxes he pays goes to the state, but
that almost 82 per cent is taken for county and
school support. His campaign speeches are full
of similar inaccuracies. It has been shown that in
citing tax increases he has before this added county
and state taxes together, giving the total as the state
levy. He has even promised to cut taxes 20 per
cent if elected governor, disregarding the fact that
the Average state tax is only 19 per cent of the
whole.
Such a man of wind and water is the democratic
candidate for governor. Charles H. Randall, with
his experience in the legislature and in business life,
bulks head and shoulders above him. The people
can trust Randall's judgment and experience, but
there is nothing in the past of his opponent that
promises anything but empty agitation and eensa
ional efforts for publicity.
RADIO AND THE WEATHER.
There was a time when the weather predictions
of the government were regarded as an unwarranted
expense on the taxpayers. Today they are recognized
as a most valuable service, without which great loss
would befall farmers, shippers and navigation in
terests. To know in advance of storms and frost,
of heat and cold is a means of preventing immense
wastes.
The more quickly these reports can be spread,
the greater the saving. Therein lies one great ad
vantage of the use of radio brondcasting. More
than 2,000 hours of operating time, worth at a con
servative estimate $150,000 has been saved to vessels
on the Great Lakes by one of the smaller weather
bureau stations. Vessels are not only warned off
the lakes because of approaching storms, but they
re also advised when it is safe to proceed and what
route to take to avoid heavy sens and adverse cur
rent. The overhead expense of an idle boat averages
$75 an hour. Thus, it meant $37,500 to a fleet of
50 vessels sheltered at Detour, Mich., when the wire
less advised them that conditions would permit them
to sail immediately instead of 10 to 16 hours later.
Another fleet of 40 boats was assured of safety six
hours ahead of the time it had intended to venture
out, thus saving $ l,000 to the hipowners.
Life, time and money is economise.! by the radio
weather service of the Department of Agriculture.
Everyone benefits throutjh the fact that the louses
t.f Industry are mt often charged to consumers.
v The ativernment today Is performing many such
1 functions, costing money, but returning it many felJ.

AS THE GREAT WEST DOES IT.
Ones upon a tint a young man with a serswny
beard, spectacles and a smite that moitly was teeth,
dawned upon the untrammeled native land of the
eowboy and the billiard. Medors might never have
been widely celebrated had it not been for Theo
dore Rooaevelt, but he put th town on the map. As
a ranchman and a deputy sheriff, he was a factor in
the life of ths writ, and in tho days he was eon
tent to get over twenty-five to thirty miles a day on
ths burrican deck of a broncho. Express trslns
"them times" whizzed along at ths terrific rate of
eighteen to tweny-flvs miles an hour, when the track
was clear and going ws food.
Now comes another Theodore Roosevelt. He Is
st Cheyenne In ths forenoon, with a dst to speak
In Omaha in the evening. The running time of the
train he travels on la only fifty miles an hour. "Not
enough," says "T. R." II, and he leaves ths express
train for an air-mail plane, and flies over the prairie
from the Wyoming capital to the Nebraska metrop
olis st the rats of 12S miles an hour.
Herein may be noted the true spirit of the west,
It was typified in Theodore Roosevelt, the ranchman
at Medora; it is exhibited by his son, the assistant
secretary of navy, on hit way to Omaha. It is the
spirit of go ahead, get there, take a chance If must be,
but make the point. Not reckless, but daring; ener
getic, active, accomplishing, making the world go
around and setting mankind's business on a better
basis each day, because it eliminates lost motion,
takes up the slack, and gets results. And that is
another reason why the west is big.
FROM CHICAGO TO THE SEA.
When the middle west gets an idea Jnto its head,
and is convinced that it is right, nothing ran turn
it. One of the things this midland country Is sure
of is that it wants the St. Lawrence waterway. In
disputable farts show that an open water lane from
the Great lakes to the Atlantic ocean would save
from & to 10 cents a bushel on the cost of shipping
grain to Kurope. This would mean a saving of
$336,000,000 a year. The same ratio of economy
would apply to other provisions and freight of all
kinds.
The states benefiting from the waterway pro
duce three-fourths of America's wheat, 70 per cent
of the corn, half the cattle, hogs, horses, butter, eggs,
cheese and wool, and 85 per cent of the iron ore,
40 per cent of the copper and coal, 76 per cent
of the zinc and 45 per cent of the lead.
In spite of all the opposition from eastern port
nterests, the central west is determined to open
the seaway. The campaign Is active in every state
of tin's region, with ths united backing of farmers
and business. The Board of Trade in Chicago is now
forming an association with a membership fee of
$50, to push this cause. This is the spirit that wins.
The west will not forever be landlocked.
WANTED MORE PIKERS.
In a burst of sarcasm a banker recently de
clared: "A piker is a man who lives within bis in
come.'
Unquestionably the spendthrift class does look
with contempt on those who "pinch the pennies"
and keep strict account of their expenditures. That
scorn, however, is no more keen than is felt for
'deadbeats" on the part of those who meet their
bills promptly.
It sometimes seems that the whole system of
modern life is keyed on inducing people to spend up
to the limit of their ability. There is, however, no
worse form of slavery than being in debt to have
spent one month's wages before it has come in, and
to be constantly behind. The free spenders may
not be pikers, but they can not disclaim their own
cheap and gaudy characteristics, even though they
are gilded.
There are however, wholesome influences at work
to encourage thrift. Of particular interest is the
manner in which the virtue of saving is being bred
n the minds of children. In the schools of Omaha
one day each week is set aside as "banking day,",
and every boy and girl is encouraged to bring a coin
to deposit, even if nothing more than a penny. Riv-
Iry is keen among the different classes for what is
called "the "banking honor," a pennant which is
awarded to the class in which the largest number of
children make a deposit. Notice, it is not the total
amount that is emphasized, but the number of chil
dren interested in thrift.
If saving can be made a habit thus early, the
haracter of the new generation can be molded so
that waste and extravagance will seem like old
fashioned sin. Thrift means more than conserva
tion of money, however. The thrifty one has too
much respect for time to waste it; too much respect
for his tools to injure or waste them. Determina
tion, steady purpose, sustained energy and the abil
ity to discriminate between false pleasures and real
enjoyment are the fruits of saving. If this be ths
definition of a piker, then the world may well wish
for more.
GEORGIA'S WOMAN SENATOR.
It was not left to the people to elect the first
woman senator. Governor Hardwick of Georgia has
filled the vacancy left by the death of Thomas E.
Watson by the appointment of Mrs. W. H. Felton,
the 87-year-old widow of a congressman. In Minne
sota and Wisconsin two women are running for ie
senatorxhip, but should they be elected, some
thing of the novelty already will have worn off.
The motive of the governor in making this selec
tion is not explained. II himself is to be a candi
date for the position In the approaching primary.
While a itraceful honor has been bestowed upon
this southern woman, yet Hardwick has not taken
any chance of building up the political future ef a
possible opponent. No man of 7 would consider
;nnic a national political campais-n, nor dues it

ng objections to tho use of cas for

Artificial illumination is an at

hem of things which ordains that

Illuminating gas are injurious. Light

such constant Illumination will rob

There Is still among us a dlsnosl-
tlon to look upon a good maay things

was urred aeafnst the airplane by
those who said that had It been in

been provided with wings. The auto-

The bright side of the story is, of
course, the fact that after we hnd our

we turned to that without any con

The creat hope In all this Is that
