Death of Congressman Latta..
While not unexpected, the death of
CongreMman Jamea p. Latta of the
Third Nebraska district comes as a
shock to his many friends outside as
well as throughout the state. That be
possessed a host of friends and ad
mirers made during nearly a half cen
tury of residence In Nebraska was at
tested by the huge majority he ran up
on his last contest tor re-election,
which represented much more than his
mere party following. These tributes
were brought to him by bis own
rugged character and sterling person
allty for he made no pretense at
either oratory or statesmanship. He
stood aa a sturdy pioneer farmer
evolved Into a solid business man with
a comfortable fortune by persistent
and well-directed effort and square
and honest dealing with his fellow
men. The high esteem in which he
was held by his colleagues In the halls
of congress Is attested by the fact that
when the make-up of the committees
was under consideration at the begin
ning of the recent extra session he
was given Important and keenly sought
assignments despite his open declara
tion that be wanted no committee
places at all.
World Prices.
Another list of comparative prices
for the present and a year ago has been
issuea and on the whole the showing
is not discouraging, that is, it is not
Indicative of a rising tendency, though
on some commodities the scale is up
ward and in most cases the causes ob
vious.
. At best, however, prices are hih
enough to make the man hustle who
has to buy. But we seem to
nearer the solution of this cost-of.
living problem, which most thinking
people are ready to admit, is not local
to this or any other country, but quite
wona-wiae m its scope and character
Starvation in China, rioting in France.
Dreaaiines in England and nubile
clamor in the United States against the-
common objective, would seem to offer
ample evidence of that.
And why world-wide? Admitting
that it is, the -explanations are too
numerous and too conflicting. The
overproduction of gold has been as
signed as the reason. In the firat
place, however, it is not certain that
there is an overproduction of gold, if
by that we mean more gold than is
needed to supply the world's demand.
The annual output of all
mines in the world, according to the
statistician's figures, amounts to $400,-
000,000 a mere bagatelle as com
pared with the demands. Why, three-
fourths of this total output, it is said,
is consumed in dentistry, Jewelry and
the like, before ever the matter of
coinage Into money and circulation in
trade is reached. "
The veteran New York editor, Hor
ace White, once said that the only way
an Increasing "supply of gold could af
feet the prices of commodities was by
Increasing the demand for them. This
brings up an Interesting phase of the
present-day question. We have com
plained bitterly because the Increase
in prices - seems to be more on the
staples than on luxuries. If we ac
cept the theory that tie output of gold
Influences the cost of living, we have
an illustration rigbt here. For the
general rise in prices began with the
prodigious discovery of old In Call
fornla and Australia and this rise ap
plied first to the articles most in de
mand and spread as the trade inter
course in gold and those commodities
spread. Certainly, it was a fact that
the rise in prices did not advance uni
formly, but on those things which the
local miners most wanted first. That
gold production la an element in world
prices is generally accepted, but it is
not the sole element, any more than
that this hlgh-cost-of-llving is a local,
or political problem.
The First Prerequisite.
Discussing proposed Improvements
In the direction of providing a perma
nent plant for the Nebraska State fair,
the Lincoln Journal declares:
It g;oe without saying that no mora ex
pensive buildings should ba erected until
a comprehensive plan Is adopted for the
entire plant
In this the Journal is eminently cor
rect, tor there is so more reason why
the public money should be wasted on
state fair improvements than It sbould
be waated In response to any other use
ful or useless demand. Having sec
cured, the permanent location of the
fair, it is natural that Lincoln should
want a permanent plant built for It at
the state's expense, but there should be
more behind the argument than the
mere spending of money in Lincoln.
The obstacle to be overcome Is the re
luctance to Invest large amounts In
costly buildings to be used only one
week In the year. A permanent state
fair plant, should there ever be one.
should be adapted to a permanent ex
position of the state's resources, and
erected upon a plan, not only compre
hensive and systematic, but holding
that purpose In view.
. What the Journal says about state
fair bulldfngs is even more applicable
to state university buildings. The de
velopment of the university campus
and equipment should also be accord'
lng to a comprehensive plan that looks
forward to the future. That is why
The Bee has advocated the transfer of
the university from the present 111
adapted' downtown site, that never can
be made to meet requirements except
at a colossal outlay, to the roomy uni
versity farm where It would be fully
accessible, and could be easily and
economically projected and built on a
comprehensive plan for the entire plant
Instead of continuous reconstruction
and patchwork. That la why The Bee
thinks It a waste of public money to
erect new buildings on the old campus,
whose abandonment is inevitable and
only a question of time.
Kipling as a Political Seer.
That Rudyard Kipling has not made
a huge success of dabbling in politics
must be due to the time and ways he
dabbles. Many years sgo he under
took to tell Canada what to do with
its tariff and provoked a mighty storm
of protest against his lntrnslon. Now,
be writes a labored letter to a Mon
treal newspaper rrom some remote vil
lage in England, presuming to suggest
what action Canada should take on
reciprocity. Whatever Canadians may
think of the advice, Kipling betrays,
not only his keen anti-American preju
dice, but a density as to the facts in
the case, which is really surprising.
He has swallowed the old annexation
bogey book, bait and line, and warns
Canada that closer relations with the
United States now will mean vassalage
later. Being so thoroughly saturated
with the old feudal notions, Mr. Kip
ling is unaole to appreciate that such
a thing is impossible on this continent.
Annealing to Canada's pride with a
reminder that it is fast assuming arge
proportions aa a nation, itself, he fiids:
Why. then, when it hss made itself
what It is, should it throw the enormous
rifts of Its Inheritance and Its fut f Into
the hands of a people who by th"l- haata
and' waste have so dissipated their own
resource that even before national middle
age they are driven to seek virgin fields
for cheaper food and living T
Much of this sort of tallt will bring
aonther sharp recession in the tide of
Mr. Kipling's popularity, which even
the acceptability of his earlier works
has -failed effectually to resist." He
evidently bad omitted to Inform him
self on the ' essential point that this
proposed reciprocity treaty, whether It
is to be regarded as good or bad, may
be terminated at the pleasure of either
country and that It does not bind
Canada forever and aye, as he seems
to think, in the avaricious grasp of a
more powerful nation. The conserva
tives of England who got Mr. Kipling
to write his letter sbould have given
him better data from which to make
hisrgament.
A Trifle Premature.
Nebraska's new commission plan law
went Into effect July 7. On the same
day The Bee started out Its commis
sion plan petitions, which had been
signed, sworn to and filed before the
month was up. The commission plan
election was held, after due notice, on
September 2, and the vote In favor of
adoption recorded more than two to
. . a, IV.
one. BO lar, SO good, since an uio yiw
limlnary steps have been thus far com
pleted. The commission plan, however,
cannot become operative in Omaba un
til the commissioners are chosen and
installed,' and the election of commis
sioners ' cannot take place until next
April. April, 1912, Is still six months
ahead of us, and while it is naturally
to be expected that possible candidates
for commissioners' Jobs will lose no
time in getting busy, it is a trifle pre
mature to become excited this early
over an event that is not to be pulled
off for weeks and months. The people
of Omaha have a lot of things in sight
that will demand their a.ttAntinn t
the interval, and will have plenty of
time to take up the matter of manning
the commission plan government after
some of these more lmmHnt ..
pressing propositions are out of the
way.
It is a good rule not to try to cross
a bridge until you have got to it, and
also not to cross more than one bridge
at'a time. The Bee will not neTt
the
commission plan proposition nor
overlook the reason for it, which Is to
Improve our city government, when the
time is ripe for action.
It is officially announced that the
place on the University of Nebraska's
payroll, vacated by our old friend, Jas
per L. McBrlen, who called himself
"directoi of the University Extension
bureau," Is not to be filled. The uni
versity authorities are to be com
mended for their wise action, for how
could the arduous labors so ably per
formed by McBrlen be successfully car
ried on by anyone else? -
If their preferred candidates had
been beaten in the primary, our local
democratic organ would be exerting it
self Just as bard to Incite Third ward
republicans to revolt and come across
for the democratic ticket. That agile
sheet, that was allied with Dennlson
s gainst the commission plan in the
last election, can play them coming and
going, Just so it boosts the democratic
game.

OMAHA'S COMMISSION PLAN.
Beatrice Sun: Omaha has decided to
adopt the commission plan of city govern
ment, snd the ms.lorlty wss sufficiently
large to show that the people are not
afraid of a new departure.
Beatrice Express: Some good work waa
done In Omaha by friends of the commis
sion form of government, snd It passed
by more than two to one. No doubt the
majority of the people of Beatrice favor
the change In city government, but the
friends of the plan should not be caught
napping. There Is some opposition and
this opposition will be actively In evidence
shortly.
Wausa Gazette: fTh commission form
of government was adopted In Omaha at a
special election last'Saturday by a vote of
two to one. This ought to be the dawn
of a new political era In the history of
our state metropolis. There Is eons'derable
In the city administration In Omaha that
will stand Improvement, and If the com
mission form is all that IS claimed for
it by its advocatea. Its beneficial results
cannot help being felt in Omaha.
Blair Pilot: Omaha adopted the commis
sion form of government Saturday by more
than a two to one vote, and will elect
seven commissioners at the regular fall
election. The World-Herald pulled back on
the plan during the campaign for two very
poor reasons one wss that The Bee was
supporting the new plan and the other
was that the democrats already have con
trol of the city government and any
democratic government Is good enough for
the World-Herald, no matter how bad It Is.
Hastings Republican: Now that Omaha,
Nebraska's greater metropolis, is the first
city in the state to adopt the commission
form of government there Is a feeling
abroad that certain Interests will endeavor
to prevent that city from making a satis
factory try-out of it to the end that other
cities In the state may not be so anxious
to adopt the new system of conducting
municipal affairs. Just how wisely and
how well Omaha will succeed will depend
on the character of the men and the hon
est endeavor that will be put forth to
make it the success hoped for.
Central City Nonpareil: Put on your
good clothes the millenlum Is at hand,
for Omaha has adopted the commission
form of government. In the election the
proposition carried by a vote of about two
to one. the notorious Third ward being the
only section of the city to register a ma
jority against it Evidently the better
class of citizens of that city are begin
ning to assert themselves. The commis
sion form of city government is not per
fection by any means, but it is a vast
Improvement over the kind we have been
used to in our big cities and It ought, to
help Omaha
Grand Island Independent: By a vote of
approximately two to one. Omaha adopted
the commission plan of government, and
will, at the next general city election, elect
seven commlssloners-at-large and along
non-partisan lines. Instead of ward coun
cllmen and a mayor. The seven commis
sioners will select one of their own num
ber for mayor. This plan, applied to the

spirit of the law. to devote their entire
time to city affairs.
Kearney Hub: Omaha adopted the com
mission form of government by a decisive
majority, there being 5,662 votes in favor
to 1.263 against. .The campaign was not
particularly aggressive In favor of the
proposition, and the elements opposed did
nt nresent any organized lineup at the
polls, so that the vote may be taken aa
a fair, normal expression on
Omaha voters for a change. Possibly any

change of administration and a breaking
up of the Dahlman regime would have

THE WAGES OF SET.
Washington Herald: The lesson of It all

tencethe wages of sin is death.
St. Louis Times: But the point seems to
us to be not so much the final question of
k n.nt or innocence of thus one person.
but the fact that a rich man accused of a
most serious crime has been arrested, tried
n rnvieted within less than two monuis,

legal talent at his command.
CMro Inter Ocean: With the lire oi a
bnman hftinr still human though most de-
nraved In their hands these Virginia
farmers were not ashamed to pray together
for divine guidance.. They were never in
disagreement The. proofs were to clear
n,i convincing-. They felt that they could
not do otherwise than condemn the ac
cused by the punishment decreed by human
and divine law tor nis crime.
Baltimore American: The appearance oi
principals in unsavory cases on the stage
in any cspaclty and In moving pictures ae
urvH all the denunciation It receives. The
Influence of this notoriety and the com
mercial value placed upon it by those quick
n t&ka sdvantace of the unhealthy, mor
bid public curiosity in such cases is about
the worst which could be brought to bear
upon young Immature minds. It lessens
their horror of crime to see such an atmo
sphere thrown around it, and It puts a
cash premium upon its actual commission.
T healthv nubile ODlnlon the explotlng of
this notoriety Is nauseating. And in many
cases the sound public opinion has mane
the commercial appeal a failure.

A HAPPY LIFE
Fir Henry Watton.
How happy Is he born snd taught
That aerveth not another's will;
Whose armor Is his honest thought
And simple truth his utmost skill!
Whose passions not his masters are: '
Whoe soul Is still prepared for death
Untied unto the world bv care
Of public fame or private breath;
Who envies none that chance doth raise,
Nor vice: who never understood
How deepest wounds are given by praise;
Nor rules of state, but rules of good;
Who hath his life from rumors freed:
Whose conscience Is his strong retreat;
Whose state can neither flatterers feed.
Nor ruin make oppressors great;
Who God hath late snd early pray
More of His grace than gifts to lend;
And entertains the harmless day
With a religious book or friend;
This man Is freed from servile bands
Of hope to rise or far to fail;
Lord of himself, though not of lands.
And having nothing, yet hath all.
