nounced with great .ado that no cam
palgn contribution exceeding $10,000
would be received from any one per
on. It turns out-that the treasurer
of bis ( committee admits., having
Evaded this limitation by putting in
10,000 for himself, and two $9,000
chunks under the names of his sons.
It would seem; that campaign pub
licity aa. advocated by our demo
cratic friends is Intended only for
' toother fellow ,t , . . . ;
! Governor Beneen's 1? ositioi.
Ic announcing his' purpose as the
republican nominee for governor in
Illinois to support President Taft for
re-election as the regular republican
nominee . for. president, Governor
Deneen takes the only position that
can be logically defended. In so
doing, be recognizes the fact, whict
Senator Dixon as the Roosevelt cam
palgn manager concedes, that "Col
onel Roosevelt has resigned from the
republican party," and aa a candi
date of a third party will have no
more in common with the republican
party than with the democratic, or
populist, or socialist, or prohibition
parties.
The political situation In Illinois,
however, is not different in essence
from that prevailing in other states,
including our own state of Nebraska,
where nominations were made by the
respective parties in advance of the
national conventions, and before the
new third party was anything more
than a threat. Governor Deneen
makea It clearly understood that he
has not resigned from the republican
party, and retention of membership
in the party .imposes an obligation
of loyalty to the standard bearers
beading the ticket, an , obligation
which would be violated just as much
by taking up with the third term
candidate as it would be following
after the democratic, or the socialist
nominee. ' . . . .
Again the Scalp Bounty.
The agitation of . a revival at the
next session of the Nebraska legisla
ture of the bounty system for the
protection of game recalls some ex
periences this and other western
states have bad along that line.
Scalp bounties have, of course, served
some very good purposes, but is open
so . easily to great abuses, wherein
lies much that Is objectionable.
The mention of coyotes in this
connection brings to mind the indus
try of coyote breeding which went on
In a state to the west of us for years
under the' beneficent stimulus of a
coyote bounty. , Of course such a
thing would scarcely be attempted
in -Nebraska In this day and the
aspirants for legislative honors who
contemplate a campaign based upon
the bounty slogan may have In mind
only the best interests of the public,
but if they should succeed in shaping
measures of this character they prob
ably would find It no easy task to
push their bills through the channels
of the legislature.
From this distance, while there Is
no desire to prejudice their pros
pects, a good rich vein of humor
may, by close discernment, be de
tected In these nicely laid plans.
High Cost of Fraud.
In apite of; the government's in
creased vigilance in running down
fraud perpetrated' through the malls,
150,000,000 more was thus filched
from the people in 1911 than in
11 10, the total harvest for last year
amounting to, $130,000,000. That is
equal to nearly $1.50 per capita, an
exceedingly heavy ' toll' for this
species of graft to make upon the
American people. Those who do not,
or think they do not, contribute to
these frauds.' may not con-,
sclously feel the affect of this stu
pendous draft, but it is felt, never
theless, and keenly.
Human credulity causes the gov
ernment a great deal of anxiety and
exertion. The Postoffice depart
ment, first-securing ..the. .enactment
of more effective laws, has redoubled
Its efforts . to prevent this form of
crime, but wfhout 'general, cp-opera-tlon
it finds its work, extremely dif
ficult. Yet it cannot all be laid to
that, for this abuse is due as much
to greed of gulllbles as the inade
quacy of law. Fakers and grafters
simply take full ' advantage of the
lack of effective measures for reach
ing them. Now that the government
has gone at it systematically, on the
basis of its experience, the work of
prevention may be expected to
achieve results.
Growth of Population. ;
So much has been said about our
urban population growing faster than
our rural In the last decade that the
fact is quite well understood by now
and yet our urban population in the
smaller centers did not make dls-
couraglngly heavy increases, so to
speak, as compared with the rural.
The largest growth was in communi
ties from 600,000 to 1,000,000 In
habitants, t Their percentage of in
crease was 83 per cent. The com
munities of 1,000,000 and more
gained only 82.2. per cent, and yet
that is far beyond the rural growth
or the growth of the entire popula
tion of the country, whose .increase
was only 21 per cent. y,
' Tbe logic of this drift, toward the
congested centers must make us the
more mindful of the complex social
problems that there arise to stare
us sternly In the face. They must
be met. They cannot be evaded.
Failing, as we thus far have, to .divert
the streams of Internal and external
migration Into the larger open spaces
of the country, wo shall have to treat
them where they are. ' 8ome stu
dents of the situation predict that
by 1920 half our population vHll be
concentrated in cities. . , If ;ao,! then
all tbe more urgent Is the need tor
adapting ourselves to the Intricacies
of this great problem now; '
Now that Japan and Russia have
signed thai, alliance,' what are they
going to do about it! ' ' '
SIDELIGHTS ON THE CONVENTION
Victor Rosewater in the Kevv York Independent.
(Mr. Rosewater. editor of The Omaha Bee, presided over the sessions of
the republican national committee and of the convention Itself until 8tvtor
Root was elected temporary chairman. Despite his modest disclaimer no one
can speak with more authority than be In regard to the question o con
tested delegates, upon which Mr. Roosevelt primarily justifies his bolt.
Editor Independent)
The Invitation to contribute to The In
dependent an article on the question of
the contested delegates at Chicago opens
up a field broader than I can possibly
cover. Being neither a lawyer nor a con
teat expert, and having no longer Im
mediate access to the records, I could not
assume to explain the contests in detail,
but having presided over the sessions at
which they were submitted, perhaps I
can throw a few sidelights helpful to a
better understanding of the case on the
part of the public.
In the first place, it should be remem
bered that the tentative, adjudication of
contests by the national committee In
making up tbe temporary roll ls.no new
thing. Four years ago I sat through the
contest hearings which determined titles
to 216 delegates' seats, and this year; the
tame duty devolved upon the committee
with reference to disputes over 262
sests. I mention the number of contests
particularly to show how Impossible It
would be for any one acting In the
capacity of juror, or Judge, to remember
the circumstances and Issues of all of
them as presented in quick succession.
Four years ago the fact toon developed
that of the 216 contests presented to the
national committee, the vast majority of
them I should say nine-tenths of them
were absolutely fictitious and trumped
up by inspiration of trouble breeders..
That the same was true to almost as
great an extent this year, when the num
ber of contests totaled 862. likewise
quickly became apparent. Aa case after
case was either withdrawn or fell of Us
own weight under the unanimous vote of
the committee, the Roosevelt men and
the Taft supporters Joining in condem
nation, It was inevitable that suspicion
should attach to all of the cases' cham
pioned by the same contest attorneys
who had practically confessed to the Per
petration of these fakes. It may be said,
without fear of contradiction, that most
of the contests In the southern states
followed the appearance of a mysterious
stranger who had, by some occult power
or covert Influence, set in motion unsuc
cessful place hunters and other discor
dant elements for some reason dissatis
fied with what the regular organisations
and their conventions had done.
A word as to the committee's proced
ure: The necessity for a code of rules
governing eontest hearings is se)f-ev.
dent. ' It was recognised by the national
committee four years ago by the appoint
ment of a subcommittee of three mem
bers to draft such a code, and the report
of this committee was at that time
unanimously adopted. It provided for
executive sessions, thirty minutes to a
side, for state contests and fifteen min
utes to a side for district contests, sub
ject to extension of time en motion or
restriction on agreement for consolida
tion, withdrawal of contestants and their
attorneys after presentation of the ease,
and immediate decision by the commit
tee without debate by vivi voce unless'
demand for a roll call were sustained by I
twenty members. The committee which
formulated ' these rules consisted of
George H. Carey of Oregon, F. B. Kellogg
of Minnesota and Frank Streeter of New
Hampshire Mr. Kellogg being the only
one of the ' three remaining on the na
tional committee. When the question of
rules arose this time, the draft which
Mr. Kellogg had helped to frame was no
longer satisfactory to hlra and
those associated with him ss the
Roosevelt floor managers, ' and they
asked for various changes. Their
demand for publicity was met by a
modification of the rsqulrement for ex
ecutive sessions, the doors being opened
to the extent of permitting two repre
sentatives of each 6f the fjve great press
associations to be present throughout the
proceedings, an arrangement for taking
down stenographically every word ut
tered, and making the transcript available
dally to any of the press correspondent!
who might wish to examine it. The de
mand for reducing the number required
to order, a roll call was not met, the
committee adhering to the view that a
lesser number than two-fifths would
merely stimulate dilatory motions and
encourage filibustering, when at beet It
would be difficult to compute the work
ahead in the limited time without night
sessions. 1 believe it was wise to ac
cord full publicity to the contest hear
ings, although the effort was to turn at
tention and remarks from the evidence
and arguments to the reporters at the

press tables; ever on the alert for smart
sayings and sensational outbursts.
Another point which should hsve a
bearing on the public attitude is the
manner" in Which the' Roosevelt people
treated their own memberships on the
committee. Of the fifty-three committee
men, twe ' were supposed to favor the
candidacy 'of LaFollette and twelve or
thirteen the candidacy of Mr. Roosevelt
At various stages of the proceedings the
Roosevelt opokesmen made loud objee
tlon to" partlslans sitting In Judgment In
these cases, although In no instance did
any one vote on any case Irr which he
waa personally Interested.'. The Roose
velt members, however, seemed to regard
their own seats on -the committee as
mere voting rights to be transferred at
will, and" from the -outset scandalously
overdid the privilege of being represented
by proxy. At the opening session on of
their proxies was given o,ver to the
political correspondent of a friendly Chi
cago newspaper, and later those proxies
were passed around among Mr. Roose
velt's campaign managers and advisers,
and even eontest attorneys, to be voted
in favor Ot seating Roosevelt delegates
Irrespective of the evidence or merits of
the case. When the California contest
ras presented Francis J. Heney sat at
the attorney's table, and at its conclusion
moved over Into a proxy's seat to vote
on other contests. The same perform
ance was repeated by an attorney who
represented . the Roosevelt side In the
Michigan contest. Governor Hadley,
Governor Stubbs, Judge Deuel and Lucius
Littauer as members of the Roosevelt
"strategy board" sat from day to day
on proxies, voting them for the Roose
velt contestants whenever a division was
had.' Later the Roosevelt people In
minority reports to the convention pro
tested against participation In the cre
dentials committee of members of the
national committee who . had .already
heard the cases a protest unprecedented
and unheard of but carefully refrained
from making objection to Mr. Heney's
membership In the credentials committee,
although Mr. Heney had proxled him
self through the whole contest proceed
ings before the national .committee, and
his name was Incongruously signed to
the protest
The ' admitted manufacture of three
fourth of their contests, the farming out
of proxies to be voted Irrespective of
the evidence, the' flagrant resort to
epithets, personal abuse and gallery
plays, were naturally not calculated to
help win contests which at best might
turn upon the benefit of a doubt. Their
method of presentation also eouid not
but react, for while the code governing
hearings prescribed, as I have said, cer.
tain rules to be observed, the Roosevelt
peoples' persistently recognised no rules,
and set about deliberately to evade them.
By courtesy of general consent, mem
bers of the committee were permitted to
ask questions to elicit further Informa
tion without charging up the time thus
consumed. Seizing upon thte loophole
certain Roosevelt representatives on the
committee would post themselves in ad
vance as to points at Issue, and .then, un
der, pretense of , asking questions, rwould
argue the case over again after the time
for presentation had , expired, often for
getting or neglecting to put the question
mark at the end of .their remarks. In
this fashion the Interrogators, ostensibly
serving as Judge or juror; behaved more
as a battery of prosecuting attorneys.
Not content with this, on several peca
sloni they undertook to reargue again
after the contestants had withdrawn, and
could no longer answer back, under the
guise of offering explanations of their
vote.
Looking backward at the whole pro
ceedings, and comparing th hearings of
this year with those of four years ago,
I am convinced that as a rule the con
tests Instituted by the Roosevelt people
were not set up with any idea of expec
tation of having, their delegates seated,
but for' the purposs, first, of making a
showing in the published claims of
pledged delegates, and second, of laying
a foundation for the cry of fraud In the
event they failed to control the conven
tion. Fortunately, no one Is called on to
Inquire what might have happened had
the Roosevelt campaign managers been
in control of the national committee, and
counted a majority of Its members as
subservient as those which they voted by
proxy.
people are allowed to rest there and If
so how long, before the police take
them in.
Don't you think the police are a little
too quick In arresting men for vagrancy?
I have been in Portland. Ore., Salt Lake
City, Denver and Chicago and have
rested In all the little squares they have
scattered around and have never been
molested by the police. .
Of courre I realise that the police must
keep an eye on the square, but when it
comes to arresting . a man who has
merely bat down to rest In his rambles
around the city, I think it Is going too
far and the police should be Instructed
In regard to this matter.
