Cady for OoTernor. .
The candidacy of A. E.- Cady for the
republican nomination for . governor
ought to appeal with special force to
Nebraska republicans at this particu
lar time. There la no question tbat
with- a candidate afthe bead of the
state ticket of vigor and force , com
manding the confidence ot the penplj
by bis own record and personality. Ne
braska can -be wholly redeemed from
democratic rule at the coming election.
Mr. Cady la ocie of the strongest
characters among our, public men. lie
is a pioneer of Nebraska who- bas con
tributed to Its upbuilding for more
than a third of a century, a successful
business man respected and admired
by all who kno him. He has served
the people in the legislature more than
once and has never been found want
ing. He has responded to every call
of his party. He worked In the har
ness as chairman of the state commit
tee which conducted the successful
campaign that kept Nebraska in the
republican column in 1892. ' M
Aa state senator in 1905 Mr. Cady
sponsored the constitutional amend
ment for a state railway commission,
without which the reform measures
enacted by the subsequent republican
legislature could not ' have materi
alized. On the liquor question he has
stated his position plainly: that while
he personally believes the . present
local option law adequate, , be would
not assume
as executive to obstruct
the enactment by the legislature of a
bill changing the option unit. .. He has
always stood for clean government and
against graft and official corruption
and has never let anyone doubt his
uncompromising attitude toward pub
lic thieves.
On national questions Mr. Cady bas
been outspoken for the Roosevelt-Taft
policies and is in thorough accord with
the reform program put through by
congress to carry out the recommenda
tions of these two great presidents.
In a word, Mr. Cady is the kind of a
candidate behind whom all the repub
lican forces could be quickly rallied
to put up a united front against the
democratic opposition.
The opportunity to secure a candi
date of the high character and ability
conceded to be possessed by Mr. Cady
has seldom come to republicans of this
state. Mr. Cady ought to be nomi
nated, and will be the nominee if the
republicans who want the highest type
of standard-bearer will go to the polls
and vote for him at the primary next
Tuesday. -.-..
Versatility. ; .
Report has it that Mr.. Bryan will
stump Iowa in the interest 'of his old
friend,. Claude Porter, who is running
for governor on the democratic ticket
and on a vet platform. In the mean
time he will be, leading the, fight for
county option or ultimate prohibition
In Nebraska.
Johrl G. .Woolley, the former pro
hibition leader 'in this country, once
said he would call wrong wrong wher
ever be found it, "in bell, Halifax,
Norway or New York." But Mr. Bryan
Is a versatile politician. It will not
cost blm the least exertion to stretch
his oratory to fit both cases at one and
the same time. He can jump from a
prohibition platform in Lincoln tb an
antl-prohibltlon rostrum in Des Moines
without missing a word, or seriously
discommoding his argument. It will
not be the first time Mr. Bryan has
run a two-ring circus.' It will cause
him no more difficulty than It caused
him in 1904 to stump half the country
for Judge Parker, whom he had vllll-
fied and denounced as a tool of the
money power before his nomination at
St. Louis; no more difficulty than It
caused him to preach free silver as the
paramount Issue, '.'which is never set
tled until settled right," in 1896; im
perialism as the chief bugaboo in
1900, and government ownership in
1906; the trusts In 1908. An- man
who could go to Washington and urge
the democratic senators into voting
for the Paris treaty, and then go out
on the stump in the succeeding cam
paign and denounce as republican per
fidy tbat treaty which eould never
have been consummated but for votes
delivered by his influence any man
who could make such quick turns as
these, will have no difficulty whatever
In preaching for a dry democracy in
Nebraska and a wet democracy In
Iowa.
Fewer Deaths on Bailroadi.
Only 253 passengers of railroad
trains were killed during the year
ended June 30, as compared to 381
the year previous. This is still too
many, but the reduction is great and
It is encouraging, for it not only shows
what can be done in the way of pro
tecting the lives of people who ride on
railroads, but It also Illustrates the
fact that railroads are making a faith
ful effort In that drectlon.
The public and the government have
been holding up 'to "the American rail
roads the small number: of deaths on
European lines and demanding an Im
provement. The effect has been whole
some. Our lines have not yet reached
the low list of the continental roads,
but they will very soon at the present
rate of reduction. It Is apparently true
that the big railroad managements In
this country today are more deeply
concerned In the ways and means of
controlling speed than of attaining it,
and the problem before them Is, not
so much how to facilitate the quick
delivery of passenger and freight, as
how to make the conveyance of its
human traffic safe and secure.
Toward attaining this end millions
are being expended In modern devices,
and. In this, as in 'Other departments
-of railroad srvlo,. weotern lines take
a leading part. The Union Pacific bas
perhaps done more with its wonderful
block signal system to revolutionize
this movement than any other line,
and it has aroused among all roads a
healthy rivalry for the protection of
life.
Still the railways have a long
stretch before them to reach what
they should. Last year, while only 263
passengers were killed, 4,944 trespas
sers met death and 3,625 employes.
The roads probably should not be held
accountable for the deaths of the tres
passers, but they are responsible In
some measure, at least, for the safety
of their employes. It is another
wholesome sign, however, that they
seem to appreciate this fact and are
endeavoring to take care of it.
Another Six Million Acres.
Secretary Wilson of the Department
of Agriculture says the government
has decided to take 6,000,000 acres of
land out of the forest reserves In the
mountain sections and convert them
into homesteads, adding: "But we
are not going to get a man a home
stead upon which to start a lumber
company."
And that is the keynote precisely.
Homesteads are not for the speculator,
nor for the man looking for a chance
to use the land for other than a home
and the government can do no better
service to the real homeseeker than
by standing squarely on Its original
purpose as thus expressed by Secretary
Wilson. ' '
Several western states with large
forest reserves have for a long time
urged the president to set aside such
part of them for homesteads as could
be used for cultivation. The demand
sprang from legitimate and reasonable
conditions, first of which was the need
for more homestead entries, and the
government bas fully satisfied itself
of the justice of it. Moreover, the oc
cupation 'of this land, on which valu
able crops may be raised, will increase
the taxable area and lighten, the tax
burden on all the people In these
states by bringing more in to produce
new wealth and greater revenue. In
stead of destroying or impairing the
forests in these reserves, the system of
habitation will have precisely the op
posite effect, for It will create land
breaks across which fire will not be
so likely to travel and will place the
homesteaders there as constant pro
tectors of the forests.
It has not been stated bow this
6,000,000 acres of land is to be al
lotted to the homesteaders, but if on a
half section basis, it will give . to
18,760 families each a tract of 320
acres, while if it is to go in quarters
it will bring in 37,600 new settlers,
or, rather, that many households, with
160 acres apiece. In either case it
represents another tremendous stride
toward the peopling and development
of ine west. 3
Congressman Hitchcock's official or
gan reproduces an article from Col
lier's Weekly knocking on Senator
Burkett for enumerating the things he
got for Nebraska aa constituting one
reason for his retention at Washing
ton. The chief argument Congressman
Hitchcock can urge in his own behalf
Is that he bas spent six years at Wash
ington without getting anything for his
constituents and can promise to dorne
more if promoted to the other end; of
the capitol. : .; . ,"
Writing to an eastern paper on thl
county option issue, Editor Dobbins of
the Lincoln News has this to say: '
Aa the governor's part in legislation
relate only to attaching his approval or
disapproval, the question will, In fact,' be
sent to the legislative districts for settle
ment. That is exactly what The Bee has
been -contending all along, and if so,
no one's republicanism cart be deter
mined by his Bupport of or opposition
to county option.
There is no good reason why the
hides of animals slaughtered at South
Omaha should ' not be tanned ' and
worked up into leather and leather
products right here. The manufactur
ing industries which Omaha ought to
encourage particularly are those which
transform the raw material of field,
farm and range into finished articles
for general consumption.
A lot of literature on behalf of one
of the candidates for nomination oh
the democratic ticket is going out on
letterheads of the "democratic city
central committee." If anything like
this were perpetrated by a republican
committee, what a howl would be
raised.
Prohibition is not in sight In Texas
just because the people are to have the
chance to vote for or against it. Such
an opportunity in Texas more likely
means tbat prohibition will be out of
sight as soon as the votes are counted.
The railroad lawyers of the country
who met at Portsmouth, N. H., to try
to crack the new railroad law found
it too bard a nut for one sitting and
have adjourned until October 1, when
they will renew operations.
Mayor "Jlm'a" creosote block veto
puts the city attorney up to defend
something which he haa said is in
defensible. A little thing like that,
however, never bothers a lawyer.'
The favorable publicity which the
only legislative candidate on the re
publican ticket who signed up "State
ment No. 1" Is receiving from demo.
cratlc sourees speaks for itself.
The redoubtable "Jerry" Howard,
who in the late legislature at Bryan's
command helped enact the so-called
Oregon law, writes to The Bee to say
that he forgot to sign "Statement No,
1." As a law-maker "Jerry" might be
a great success If he did not have to
compete with the bunch of grafters
with whom he was associated at Lincoln.

The accomplishments of a parcel post
agreement with Hungary tenda to force the
same Issue at .home. People naturally ask
why it is that eleven pounds of merchan
dise can go by mall to a foreign country,
while only fpyr jpounds will be taken by
the same agency. for transmission betwoen
cities here; and further, why the long dis
tance mail should1 ie carried at the rate
of 13 cents a pound, while 16 cents is the
home rate. Of course it is a Very long story.
The government goes into these foreign
arrangements, n pat, because of Its obli
gation' aa amjrnjer of the Postal Union,
while It abstains from ' granting the same
prlvHegpaa. at home because It haa not yet,
seen fit to take over the express business,1
as any . extensive popularisation pf the
parcels post idea would do. Good argu
ments may be made on both sides of this
project; but most people would clearly like
to see the government take up this work.

Governor Marshall holds with the Carlisle

He advocates a (straight revenue revision,

In the footsteps of the men who dominated
Indiana in the days of its democratic In

boom depend upon contingencies. It Ohio
and Indiana, go 'republican this year both
booms will dlsapear. If Ohio goes republl

we may not. expect him to become In those

A dull, dreary, somnolent aummer atmos

cabinet and others big enougn to get away
without aaklng for a vacation have fled to
cooler reglona, and only the mild-mannered
civil service clrk rubbers through the twi
light corridors of public buildings. In
Washington It is night all night In the
night time and every day Is Sunday, save
In the great building at the comer of North
Capitol and II streets. There It Is day all
day In the daytime and It knows no night.
The rumbling machinery whirs Incessarftly,
reports a correspondent of the New York
Times, and tired shift Is replaced by shift
indifferent as tb what quarter of upper or
nether sky the sun may be disporting his

to the railway station.
For this Is now the great ammunition fac

Talks for people
A year or so ago the United States
woke up, rubbed Its eyes and looked
In wonder at the "On to Canada"
movement among Its farmers thou
sands had gone, thousands were pre
paring to go.
Why?
The Canadian government had
looked at Its vast acres lying Idle and
realized what it would mean to have
them peopled by the thrifty Yankees
across the border; railroad men had
also looked and realized what it would
mean to them to have these acres un
der cultivation.
By and by came much "literature"
advertising the postblIitle8 of farming
in Canada,, painting in rosy hues tne
climate and conditions, calling atten.
tlon to the number of bushels of wheat
to the acre, shipping facilities, the
small cost of land and numerous other
reasons why the i American farmers
should come over. .-.l.-rVf .. r

advertising is a matter, of history.
What can't be accomplished through
good advertising? . ,
Indeed, there are .very few under
takings that cannot be carried taj. a
successful issue through adverting,
If It Is dono rightly, honestly, cour
ageously. Advertise something the people
want, in a way that carries conviction,
and they will respond, no matter how
many miles they have to travel to
do so. ,
If you want to sell anything that ia
of UBe to. the public, advertise. '
If you want to do anything people
a country, build a railroad or hold a
convention advertise!
