Champ Clark would make an !n jflutsntial president, when he cannot, fas speaker of the boose, get himself ; seriously taken even in a moet sol troo public speech. Already, In four days leas than two months after the election, the complete Maine returns are in, and ' the people may kaow precisely how the state went. Glddap. The Water board has already started In to organize Its forces of employes beginning with mala inspec tors. We may now expect ah ebjeet lessoa In nonpartisan appointments. Senator La Folltte would lad. if he got tba republican nomination for president, that these democratic papers and "ataUteaien". were oaly joking In thilr compliments to him. If the : judge, jury, witnesses and lawyers would go off to a distant Isle In the sea and try that McNa rosra case and come back and tell us the verdict It would suit most people. "Oh, well. It s ofily Champ Clark." Utlly observed the Er'.U.'a fcrolga secretary when advised that 'the pecker had declared alne-tejithe of ita Xcicriczca tzTcr n&aexitVtm ol paz&da. "I aA&il lot hctAttr aJcn.: 1 Maine's Muddle. Thr people of Maine have found out. two months after their election, Ibsl the Mate retains conBtHlatlonal prohibition, at leaat nominally. Tho result is satisfactory to neither the prohibitionist nor the antla. The former rcalUa that a majority of 758 votes on an Issue of this character Is far too scant to offer much en couragement for either tbe enforce ment of the law or the future,' espe cially with the majority in cities over whelmingly adverse. The antlu know It mean nothing but a dead letter law so long as public sentiment In the cities Is so violently opposed to It. Maine, therefore, bas not solved Its problem in these belated election returns. Indeed, Governor Plulstcu, lender of the opposition, gives notice of his Intention to convene the legis lature in extra session for the spe cific purpose of submitting to the people a proposed amendment to tba constitution by which laws regulat ing the liquor traffic and possible of enforcement may be enacted. The legislature la to meet in February. It will be but a short time, then, until Maine will have this same' question to vote on again in another form. Since not even tho friends of pro hibition In that state. have1 shown tbat this organic law baa been en forced In the cities, it would gecim tbat they would prefer another law tbat could1 be enforced there as wall as in tho smaller towns and rural districts, where, rt Is admitted,' pro hibition has been effective. Governor Flaisted, who baa spent hla lifetime in Maine, and ought to know the sit uation, declares: Thera la no nuestlon about the desire of tha cities to ljnprnv conditions by adopting aome other method of dealing with the liquor traffic. An amendment to tha constitution ahouid ba submitted to the people, to ha voted upon next Hep- te-mber, under tha terms of which cities should hav tha right to Invoke and en act IochI IrrlKlatkin within their own limits. It la tba old principle that without public sentiment committed to en forcement It la Impossible; to make any law effective or prevent It from becoming a dead letter and when a law txtcomea dnad letter It would be much better off the statute books. Constructive Railway Policies. A Railway Business Association Bulletin, dealing with legislation and executive policies affecting the rail roads, makes much of the claim tbat "viewing the whole country the most far-reaching tendency Is a diminu tion or complete cessation of law making affecting the carriers." It goes on to show that: ' Aloft striking of all. Uia states which have bean pioneers In regulation, end have up to a reasnt period done moi In that direction seem to bava nearly. ur Si Jn given e 4h auat tor furthw Mstrtctloava and. are now evincing anxiety,, to. attract capital for the development of transporta tion and business. It also snys: " Reparta from the forty states whose lilaturee met in 1911 show that a marked tendency, already widespread, has developed in the direction of a con structive policy affecting railways and in many inatanocs attocUng Industry end buRtneaj aa well. It then quotes several governors at the recent conference of governors as enunciating euch constructive policies, Governor Aldrlch being quoted ns emphaalzlng "the Impor tance of having the rallroada thrifty and prosperous and making legiti mate dividends upon actual .invest ments." Why, then, in face of these facts. do other intereata profess apprehen sion over the eltuatlonT But this Bulletin Is entirely overlooking the real. point If It does not see that the reason for thla cessation la railroad legislation la tbat moat of the crying abuses calling for legislation have been remedied. " That is the case fn practically every one of those states in woicn rcierence is mado as "pioneers" In thla field or legislation and the railroads have adapted them selves to it without aerioua diffi culty. t It would be a great mistake for the rallroada to Imagine that the people had receded from the splen did advaoce they have achieved And the fact that after they have en acted the lawa that were needed they are rested upon their oara ought to be the beat evidence to the rallroada of their good faith and proof that nothing beyond a square deul was or Is dealred. Potash Mines in Alaska. Report comes of the discovery of immense potash deposits In Alaska. Are wo to have another "New Ul dorado," another rush for the great northwest? Probably not, for the government will take care ot the product, and permit no monopoly by private prospectors. This lends the cheerful aspect that In event of the reports proving true we may be spared the untoward happenings auch rs have followed the taking up of coal and timber claims in the penin sular. It ha been well aald tbat potash in abundance upon American soil would be moro valuable than gold, particularly at this time when we are getting started on our system of in tensive agriculture and are ao long on gold and abort on potash. For potash would become the hand maiden of that modern method. Scientists eay it Is tbo peerleaa fer tUlxer end would ret the coat of preaent fertllliatloa In two. Such returns woo Id ho evn aa grrat In raJua as tho allaying- and precluding of further dVsputee with our friend, (iermnnj, over this precious re source. It wduld not make nny dif ference to us then how much potash Germany held n corner on. JuNt so we had our vast Alaskan fields left. Nothing is small in Alattka. Gold, coal, timber are all more abundant than anywhere else. So potash, if It has been discovered, must underlie the surface of tbat great natural kingdom of wealth in Inexhau3tlble quantities. Of course, we shall know definitely about this matter before congress seta to work this winter constructing a new form of govern ment for Alaska. Good-Bye, Champ. Good-bye, Champ Clark, ao far as your presidential asplratlona go. Your political gooso Is cooked. There la no longer anything to it, and you might aa well aave your money and your voice. Your reiteration In favor of an nexing Canada haa put on the finish ing touches, for that old democratic warhorao, Edgar Howard, says ao, and -he drives It In with this pro nouncement: Pjch a dlaplny of Jlngolam ought to put Champ Clark clear nutaldo tha lilts of pokxlliln preNlrtentlnl candidates. A public man who la no lucking In the traits of common decency an to pioclalrn that his country want to annex a peoplo and a country with, whom our oven nation is at perfert peace la a man too dangerous to he thotiKht of aa a pteHldentlal poaslblltty. It la paid that Champ Clark wait once a Mlaaourl mule driver, lie "till talks ilka one. It goes without saying that if Cbamp la out of the running it will behoove democrats to unite on some other man moro available for' the oneroua Job of democratic standard bearer. Of course, Edgar is too mod eat and too discreet to propose a sub stitute, but we bava no compunction in divulging aa tha name of hia firat favorite our distinguished fellow cit izen, William Jennings Dryan. Our amiable democratic contem porary, Senator Hitchcock's per sonal organ, throw's bouquets at It self for conducting "an honorable campaign," although it has been re peatedly raught eelf-convlcted of de liberate misrepresentation and de ception, and has been throwing mud Indiscriminately from beginning to end. What would It do if It were waging a dishonorable compalgn It's funny, really funny, to have the democratic organ tell how the democrats presented "a complete ticket for the six offices of justice Of the peace In Omaha and for the same number of constables," while "the republicans renominated the same old bunch," but neglect to say fihe same people were on both tickets. Oh, what a difference an extra label makes. ' More rigid regulations to govern lodging houses are demauded by the health commissioner. Perhaps If the first Inspection be made by the building inspector, and the second by the fire warden It might, in some cases, save the health depart ment from going to the trouble. Another place, where our election laws need repairing la to require the Judges and clerks of election to report for duty at least half an hour be fore the time to open the polls and make sure that the machinery is In working order before the voters pre sent themselves. The suggestion la made that the musical director of a band or" or chestra should face the audience In stead of the musicians. We think so, too, In order that be may eee what la coming to him.

OMAHA, Nov. 8.-T0 the Editor of The Lee: An article in The Kutxlay Bee Quotes from "a book." (the tlt.e aot given), wrlttnn by an unnamed "professor" who seekw to discredit Christian Science and Its leader by repeating allegations too often refuted to be seriously comtidtred by an enllglttened public. In the limited space of a brief para graph this anonymous "profeasor" Incor rectly clasalflea Chriatian Hclence, con demns his own misconceptions of its methods, a tehee a gllmpee of Its pur pose, but obacurts his vision by denounc ing Its lder, irrespective of age or ver acity. The superficial observer may deem all mental methods Identical, but the honest investigator soon learns that no analogy exist between Christian Bclence, based upon the Llvlne Mind,' as tha only con sciousness, and other metaphysical sys tems dependent upon the human mind and Its modes. Christian tclantlfrts under stand that In exact ratio of their obedi ence to Ood are they freed from human despotism, consequently they deprecate personal control and eschew esoteric methods. The life end work ef the leader of Christian Science Is a true Index to her character, and are so well known that any attempt to impugn her motives or acts must prove abortive. Her insistent admonition to follow her only as she follows Christ Is a sufficient denial of the accusation that she demands obedi ence to personal requirements. The Chriatian Scientist is not "com pelled to be a book agent," but he Is In spired by gratitude to recommend the In quirer to a careful study of literature which opened his own eyes to man's God given dominion over evil. He assuredly regards the healing of sickness and sin an the "be-all and end-all of human life," for this work, already begun by Chris tian Science, will be carrlod to comple tion; discord of every nature will be eliminated, harmony reinstated and God's kingdom will be established upon earth Whosoever will may prove to his satis faction the availability and adaptability of Christian Science to every human necessity. NELLIE M. JOHNSON Crock Hlerh School Foot HaIlU OMAHA Nov. .-To the Editor of Tha Bee: In The Sunday Bee I was a very Interested reader of an article which waa a resume of the history of th Omaha High school foot ball elevens. Th writer ot your article has evidently over looked some ot the best players ever turned out by this school or any other high school. For Instance, ther was Kugene (Oene) Tracy, the greatest half back of them all, and with the exception ot Will F.nglehart, the brightest star who ever wore a moleskin for our high school. Tracy, thotlgh comparatively light, waa one of the longest and surest ground gainers turned out by any west era high school. II had a natural "high knee" action when running with the ball which made him practically impossible to tackle successfully. If I am not mistaken Tracy was a member ot the high school team from 1K93 to 1901, inclusively. Then ther was Harry Welch, who played tackle on th eleven with Tracy. Surely no one could forget the tawer of strength he added to the high school line, with his weight, great strength and clear head. Will Thlrkles, the lamented colored boy who died while yet In school, was Tracy's mate at halt for season and one half. Thlrkles waa one of the best-liked students In the whole school and was a veritable demon as a sure ground gainer and tackier on th team. To those of us who were students In the high school from VSSI to 190S and who have followed the records of the players since ther csn be no exception taken to the fact that of points made for the team no one player contributed more than Ouy Thomas, who played end. Thomas, besides being swift as lightning snd a remarkajle tackier, was without a peer as a punter. To anyone who wit nessed the game between Tarklo college and Omaha High school the way Thomas saved tha day by punts ranging from fifty to sixty yards was a revelation and there could bo no question of his ex trcino power as a punter. Now, my memory may play a few tricks with me aa to th exact number ot years th above player wore th "O.H.8." sweater for proficleocy In foot ball, but it is perfectly accural aa t the ability f the players. I am sure that there M any uumber who will agree with ru In fact th team which was whipped Into shape from W to X'jOI was almost ex cluslvely on of star. Ther might be named In addition to the above, Tom Brown, a Colored, boy, Roberts, Griffith, Htandevcn, Lehmer, Hutchinson. Marah and Coryell. Without deputing the nate- ntent oonoaralnaT later playeis it seetna irapoaalbl o wrlto at all of th various tennis without first mentioning Kn tie- hart, Tracy, Thlrkles, Welch and Thomas and then th other as I huve atuted.
