' . ' A - ' ; Coal Shortage Scare. . ;From the Missouri river east coal dealers are raising the cry of an anthracite shortage, as a result of diminished outputs at the mines, to gether with the heavy draft made upon American supplies as .a result of the British strikes. Some of the reports of supplies on hand as com pared with the normal at this time of the year, are startling. Chicago, New York and Boston and all the great consuming centers, not except ing Omaha, are in the same predica ment. In New York and Boston dealers are holding conferences to which hey invite representatives from the mines, to devise with them jome solution of the problem. One suggestion . is that consumers go lightly on their early orders, leaving purchases to le made in January, when the demand is usually light. , Something is radically wrong with the management of the great, pro lific mines of this 1 country when autumn is allowed to catch our docks and bins empty and at the mercy of circumstances. We have had no se rious tie-up of operations as a result of labor disputes, and even though British ships had to load from Amer ican docks during the period of the English strikes, that should not have been sufficient' to cause , such an alarming scarcity of coal for Amerl can use when the machinery of our own mineB was running full "blast, or might have.'' been-' so run, without much interruption. Of course, these coal shortage reports generally seem more serious in August than in De cember, and- yet the advance of prices already tends to . suggest real gravity, , , ", , s. Tbe Reverie. Side-of the Recall. One of the possibilities of the re call Is that it may be invoked by one element in the community as well as by the other. This has been shown by the effort made in Oakland, Cel., by what was referred to as "the law less element," to oust city official who persisted in enforcing a "lid" law. The result was defeat 'for the lid lifters, but the experience illus trates the expense and possibilities involved in this new political device. In some communities such an effort might have succeeded and officials whose Only, offense had been rigid enforcement of a law enacted by the 'people' representatives would have been, turned out as "unfaithful" or "inefficient" public servants. At least some odious charge would have attached to them. The. recall work both(ways. It has a dual character and may be em ployed for ill as well as good pur poses and results. The Oakland ex ample;' while net entirely' unique, doubtless will have tbe effect of arousing., new public interest, one way or another, 'la this experimental Instrument, especially' in cities that are contemplating tbe adoption of the recall system. Political fortunes turn on very slight circumstances sometimes, and it is possible to con jure up prejudices against very good officials and by this mean ac complish their overthrow for the benefit of a small part of the pec pie. High Prices and Corn. , The Nebraska farmer who predict $1 corn before the year is out cer tainly takes no chances at least in saying that the high price of corn is here to stay. He might go further and say . that high prices of every thing are here to stay. They are be cause they have been a factor In raising the general standard of living and we are not likely ever to fall back much from the plane on which we are now enjoying ourselves, though much remains to be done in the matter of economic read just tneat. It is this, lnvoIving.fcl6ser economy and higher efficiency, rather than a decisive reduction r of prices to which it is more reason able for ;u8 to' look.' ,-V... As to corn, our friend Is right In pointing to the multiplicity of staple purposes it Is serving, as one' of the chief reasons why that cereal will continue to bring a high price. As a food article It Is more extensively used today than ever, and this as well as its use in commerce and industry will continue rather than abate. Every indication points to an upward rather than a downward tendency. , , ' . Of course, it is a mere coincident that Mr. Funk, 'the bull moose can didate for governor of Illinois, Is a multi-millionaire. The' same might be said of George Whatagob Per kins, Boss Fllnn, the McCormicks, Dan Wanna, Dick Quay and a- few Others. But what's the use? Let the people rule, that is, all except the colored people. ' White, black, Jew, Gentile, Prot estantr Catholic, make up the procession 'of Jullu Rosenwald's beneficiaries, by which philanthropy assume a cosmopolitanism further to commend it. That Chicago promoter who bor- rowed $1,500,000 without ':. a cent actually, to his credit is almost as good a financier as the New York police officer who saves 1200,0(10 in eight months out of an annual salary of SJ.250. How is it possible to believe that the New York district attorney's of fice has accumulated more evidence in the graft-murder cases than it really, needs,' since Detective f Burns had nothing to do with the accumu lation? Or perhaps he will later show that he directed the investi gators by some occult means. Yet the country does not forget those signed letters by Theodore RooseVelt and E. H. Harrlman, when "we (were) are both practical men." , If the arrest 6f aldermen. In De troit continues much longer, it may become aeecessary for the people of that city to prove that they are not aldermen. .

FINANCIAL AID FOR THE FARMERS System in Operation Abroad Feasible in; This Country. New York Tribune. ' Ambassador Irishman's report on the operation of the Ralffelsen system of rural banks In Germany, recently pub lished by the State department will be an Important aid In working out Presi dent Taft's plan to give to th farmers of th country the command of capital and credit for their enterprises on fair terms; such as the manufacturer and the business man enjoy. This Is a practical, progressive measure which does not lend Itself particularly well to the sensational ism of demagogues, but It promises more for tho prosperity and happiness of the Industrious millions . of small means dwelling In the country than do air the loudly advertised political nostrums. The Tribune has more than once re ferred to th Ralffelsen banks and th improvement they have wrought in Im poverished districts In Germany and Ire land, and we have urged the Introduc tion of some similar system Into th United State by which farmers lacking the capital to cultivate their fields to the greatest profit and contribute to the food supply of the nation the lanreet possible crops might be enabled to carry on their business efficiently. Arlcultur is probably the least efficiently conducted Industry in the United States. Educa tion Is doing much to Improve It. The growing cost of food makes the problem acuta not only for th farmer but for th whole nation. Commissions have been ap pointed to study tbe subject Mr. Roose velt, while president had the rural re gions surveyed by sociologists. Much has been said about the need of schools and social opportunities and amusements to resist the trend to the cities. But down at botton the rural problem la one of economics, and no business can be prosperous and attractive when carried on with .inadequate equipment and inade quate credit The lack of thtsm ieave vast stretches of our fields half tilled. Copitai stands ready today to finance on easy terms the enterprises of th mer chant or manufacturer. It would gladly b at th command of the farmer, but our system does not make such co-operation easy and safe. It Is not that capital is shy of agriculture in Itself. Vast sums are put into large farming enterprise, either through mortgages or through In vestments In irrigation and farm com panies. But the machinery does not exist for co-operation with th small pro prietor, whose preservation and prosper Ity are fn hope of democracy. This machinery the' Ralffelsen-system sup plies, and Mr. Taft's leadership in direct ing attention to the possibilities of ex tending rural credit by this means points to a genuinely larger democracy and more extended prosperity. THE SHAME OF DETROIT Besponsiblity for the Disgrace Put on the Voters. Detroit Free Press. " ' The blame for Detroit's present dis grace cannot be all thrown off onto tho aldermen, however deeply they may be Involved In these charged misdeeds. Borne part of It, and a very large part, too, at taches to th cltlsens of Detroit, the voters who put the aldermen where they ar. Ignorance cannot be pleaded. The cltl sens have been put on guard about this matter very often. The newspapers, the Municipal league, the , ministers, have been talking about It. For years it ha been notorious that our aldermen were In receipt of salaries insufficient to at tract competent and honest men, but that there was no lack of applications for tho Jobs. The voters have known that the pay received by aldermen Is only flOO a month, and they have seen men give np for them salaried places that paid $1,800 or more a year. They have known that some of the aldermen have no other oc cupation than their official sutiea, and th inference was unei capable. The $1,200 a year that went to th aldermen from the city treasury was not enough to sup port existence in these days' of ..high prices, and even from Its meager sum must be deducted the constant outgo ot contributions to every charity appeal that started In the city, to say nothing of th cost of campaign contribution to po litical parties, and the other endless de mands upon officeholders Yet we, th citizens and voters of De troit, knowing all these things and being average men of Intelligence, have been electing' to the council men whom we knew to hay no other means of support than the money that they would get from their office, and we knew that they were not getting enough honestly to sus tain bare livelihood. We stand convicted, we voters, of complicity in these bribery crime. W have deliberately or with criminal Indifference to our duties chosen the men who have now brought upon us what we are content to call shame. We knew.' We knew. , What are we going to do about it? The Individual, culprits, hav been caught. They will repent and reform. But if the legally guilty are reforming what of th morally guilty 1 Are the voters of De troit to continue in the courses that they hav been following? Will they keep on sending men to public office who ar ob viously exposed to temptation, and as ob viously yielding to the temptation? Th aldermen we have had have not been creditable .to us for th most part, but they ar the kind of aldermen that has suited Detroit heretofore or they Wouldn't have been where they were. They got into offlc through , the voters. What kind of aldermen do the voters Intend to put Into office now? SAD) DT FUN.

The appeal of a committee of eminent lawyers to'niembers ofthe bar 'of' the supreme court ',ti' 'raise, a fund of f),000 for. the widow and two daughters of the lat Associate Justice John M. Harlan, calls attention to the extremely modest estate 'of th Jurist who, for nearly thirty-four years was a member of our highest tribunal. He left an estate ap praised at less than $2,500. , ...e conduct of certain Judges, in very rare instances, who have been oblivious of the ethical Impropriety Involved in fis cal obligations to those who might ap pear before them as litigants, ha been under public surveillance of late and th results of tnvestlgatibn have given advo cates of the recall tbe specious warrant they heeded for their attempts to under mine popular confidence in the Judiciary. Tne" honorable poverty" of Jutle Harlan Is an eloquent rebuke to those who 'as sail bur court venal and aver that It Is a common practice Among Judges to remov th blindfold and deflect ttv scales for Croesus against Lazarus. The example of Justice Harlan as a Jurist who strove to interpret the law as no respecter of persons IS by no means uniqiie. It Is the rule; which the very rare exception merely prove. It is to the credit ot the legal profession that most lawyers stand willing to sacrifice the lib eral emoluments of successful private practice, not for the comparatively slender Income that is' Incommensurate with the personal distinction and high responsibility of membership in the Judiciary. ' ' ' ' ' NEGLECTED NEEDS OF AGRICULTURE Present Situation Calls for Safeguards for the Future. . Minneapolis Journal. , In fifty years w shall be unable to feed our population, unless radical re forms ar adopted in " our agricultural methods." . '. So the National Sol) Fertility league was told Jby Its president, who further said: - "This country will Inevitably face a famine in food unless the soil Is greatly Improved," and"th agricultural situa tion In tne United States has been so neglected that within twenty years w will be forced to Import our principal food products from other lands." . This would seem preposterous, were It not really true. Th United States, the greatest and most fertile stretch Of lands In th temperate son, so neglected and mismanaged. Every platitude ever uttered concerning th importance, th Indlspcnsablllty of agriculture ' to the prosperity and the morals of a ; nation) , Is true, absolutely true. Hence every welt considered effort made by a government to' fortify, to In tensify, to expand Its agriculture. Is justified. , It a nation can spend $400,000,000 . on a great canal, can stimulate manufacture and trad by every manner ot means, It can well afford, to apply to agriculture similar attention and support. To be sure, the situation provokes the projection of unsound schemes, expensive and showy. But so does every worthy cause.. On the other hand, if it Is demon strated that $3,000,000 a year of. the nation's- money distributed among the states to support agricultural colleges is an effective method of agricultural Im provement the price . Is not staggering. Congress spends much more money every year on absolutely worthless fads or things that Have not even the pretension of fads. The tact is that this agricultural caua Is the most Important of all the cause to th fore. It will better repay study and .expenditure. Neglected, it will cost u dearly. Wisely dealt with, it will re ward us well. HeBeesleHerBox Ti : ' uJ Commends Tk Be Eterrt. OMAHA, Aug. 1J.
