Massachusetts. I ' While campaign managers for both President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt are claiming a triumph in Massachu setts, unbiased analysis will, we be llere, disclose substantial advantage for Mr. Taft. On tbe face of the re turns, the delegates elected are di vided, bait and half, while tbe prefer ential vote gives the president a sub tantlal majority over tbe colonel. If the delegates therefore carry ont their Instructions regarding the sev eral districts and the state at large as their constituencies, Taft will bave twenty-six and Roosevelt tea of tbe thirty-six votes in the convention ap portioned by the Bay state. Aside from capturing more than two-thirds of the delegation. Presi dent Taft has demonstrated that the Roosevelt wave, which bad seemed apparently irresistible in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Nebraska and Oregon, is not necessarily overpowering wherever a direct primary vote la had. The president baa met In per son the fighting forced upon him by the opposition, and baa done so with measurable success, which will be strongly encouraging to him and bis supporters in the state that are yet to select their delegate. Thomas C. Dawion. The death of Thomas C. Dawson. resident diplomatic officer for the Slate department, In charge of our relation with Central and South America, will cause keen regret among all who knew him personally or officially, particularly among tbe people hereabouts, because he was re garded as a Council Bluffs boy. While a native of Wisconsin, "Tom" Daw son lived for many years in Council Bluffs, where he practiced law, hav ing previously followed his profession and been in newspaper work at Des Moines. H waa an ardent and ener getic republican, rendering the party good service In th famou 189 campaign, and paving th way to enter tbe diplomatic corps a secre tary of th legation In Brasll, from which be roe by successive promo tion to be minister to Ban Domingo, to Colombia, to Chile, and finally chief of the division of Latin affairs for the State department. Mr. Daw son' career I a fine example of what can be accomplished by a young man of vigor. Intelligence and good abil ity devoting himself to the public service, and staying by It.. The Harvester Truit Suit Tba government' action to dis solve tbe so-called Harvester trust on the ground ot Its being a com bin In restraint of trade will follow out the usual linea of prosecution, but will undoubtedly be attended by greater public interest than baa hung upon th outcome of any recent similar case, chiefly because ot the political controversy thst ha revolved about this alleged monopoly. It has been classed as on of tb "good" trusts, In contrast with th ordinary run ot trusts, which ar considered aa "bsd." Quit apart from any political ilg-. nlflcance, however, the Harvester combine ia on that touches a very vital element In our economic life th farming community, first, and ao a determination ot It character and relation to the law will nave It chief bearing on a different class of people. Th government ought to have Its case rather well In hand. Inasmuch as tbe Investigation Into tbls Industry has been In progress for five years, run ning through two administrations. Tba fact that representative of the trust bave made themselves conspicu ously activ la national politics should not, and, ot coarse, will not. be allowed to prejudice tb outcom on way or tb other. Another Democratic Bid. The aweeplcg antt-lnjunctloa bill reported by Chairman Clayton of th house judiciary committee is mani festly another democratic bid for votes. Labor leaders have long ad vocated the principles thts measure embodies, but even tbey probably have little expectation ot the bill' enactment Into law. The bill pro vide specifically against blanket In junctions, reiterate the unrestricted right of the workman to assemble peaceably and uphold the boycott and right of withholding patronage by concerted agreement. This I uch a radical and sudden manifestation of love for th laborer da tb part of tbe democracy that It mut naturally arouse suspicions. The democratic majority of the judiciary committee has no more idea ot pass ing this bill thsn of abolishing th tariff, but that will not interfere with their manufacture of campaign capi tal out of it to the limit Good Men for Commissioner. Prior to tbe city primary The Bee undertook to point out which of the republicaa candldatea aeemed. In It judgment, to have particular quali fications and claims oa the voters. Most of these men won out la the first round, and are before the peo ple (or a second choice. Nothing has happened since the primary to change The Bee's opinion as to the merit of the men It has commended, but quite the contrary, Ita judgment has been confirmed la various ways. For example, this la what The Bee said of Alfred C. Kennedy when he was running aa aa Independent, wholly on his own resource and record: Although bora la New Tor It state. Al fred C. Kennedy baa resided over forty years light hers la Omaha, be leg adu- catwl n our public schools, and engaged in I lii. mbI .nit. luuliuai f. .r nvm than in tbe real estate business for more than twenty-five years. Ha has served tbe public whenever called upon In various honorary positions oa the school board, oa the Library board. In numerous char itable and philanthropic organisations. He Is clean, capable, conscientious, trust worthy, level-headed, broad-vlfloned. a high-class man In every respect, lie Is not a fanatic, an extremist or one-idea man. How ha could be Ignored In any aet of endorsements supposed to be made on a merit basis la Incomprehensible. It ought to be a privilege for our people to be permitted to vote for such a man to Inaugurate the new regime In city affairs. Since the primary the Citlxena' union ha accepted The Bee's judg ment of Mr. Kennedy, though it Is plain he would not bave been nomi nated except for The Bee's support. The Citzens' union has taken him up In order to get his personal strength for those to whom they before gsve preference over him. We repeat, that Mr. Kennedy would make a good man for commissioner, with or with out tbe Citizens' union endorsement. It seems to me that what you propose to do with Canada la admirable from every standpoint.

Not a bad show ing, thst. It Is gratifying to have our own ambassador's word for It that Mex ico's Intentions are tbe best toward American and that American resi dents In the neighboring country are not in extreme danger. Neverthe less and notwithstanding, handsome is as handsome does. One of the current magazines has been digging up the signature of our great-grandfather, which are repro duced to show what funny marks they msde when signing deed. Still, they are not much funnier, or harder to read, than some of our own.

When the Frankfurt, the first vessel to pick up the stricken ship' distress call. asked for further Information Its operator waa called "a tool" by th Titanic oper ator and told to keep off. In the exact words ot Harold Bride's testimony before the senate committee, "W told him to stand by, to keep out ot tt sod not to Interfere with his instrument, as we were In communication with th Carpathla." And according to th Calltornlan'a wireless operator, when that vessel ad vised th Titanic of the presence of ice fields the response was, "Shut up, shut up. I am busy working Cap Race." The retaliatory tactics of the Caitror- nhu's operator ar disclosed la his own words: "I jammed him. I was stronger than Caps Race. Therefore my signs is came la with a banc, and he could reach ate and he could not reach Cape Race-" Whea the government cruiser Chester, with one of th best wireless operators In th United States navy on board. asked for new from tb Carp this, tt waa rebuffed.

Army Oeseral Of rice re. Th appointment of a major general to fill a vacancy la that grade caused by tna osata of Usosral F. D. Orant ha been the occasion of much animated speculation among army officers. It has beea felt that there waa a possibility of ths appointment of Brigadier General D. H. Brush, who will retlrs on May . This wsuld afford an opportunity to appoint another major general and two brigadier. It la also under con sideration at the White House, It Is un derstood, to appoint a major general oa or two ot the brigadier who a re next due for retirement Those who will retire following General Brush are Gen eral W. 8. Schuyler In April. 1U; R. D. Pott In September, 1914; F. A. Smith In May, 111; R. W. Hoyt In October, nil; M. P. Mau In September, 1911, and W. W. Wotherspoon In November, Ult, There have been some sign that General Woth. erapoon would be selected, although In that event hs would "Jump" Funston, Bliss, Mill and Pershing In th order named, all of whom, however, retire after General Wotherspoon, Bits retiring In Dsoembsr, UU, and Mill In May of the following year. There Is a remote chance that General Funston, who head th list of brigadiers, will be appointed, but, as hs does not retire until lira, he I de stined to be considered as having plenty of tint for th attainment of th grade ot malor general. Whea It come to th appointment of a brigadier, tt la evsn a mora difficult matter to specify. Th cavalry candidate most conspicuous are Colonel . Z. Btssvsr, Fourth cavalry. and t- 1. McClernand, First cavalry, the farmer retiring la August, 1913, and th latter In December of till year. 'If th election I made from the coast artillery, the candidate to be eonaldered are apt to be Colonel F. S. Strong and C. J.
