Oat amiable democratic contempor ary explains the shortage in voluntary offerings to ltd Wilson campaign fond as compared with four years ago by making a savage attack on The Bee. That's a conclusive liuwer. v- So far, South Dakota is the only state which duplicates the situation in Nebraska, where candidates for presidential elector nominated in the republican primary repudiate their obligation to vote for the republican national standard bearers. In all other states, except Kansas and Cali fornia, where the controvery Is sail pending in ; the courts, republican nominees for electors unwilling vote for Taft have had the decency and honor to withdraw from the ticket- ' - - ' ' ' Money and Crops. "The treasury," Bays a Washington dispatch "will make no deposits this fall with the national banks to facil itate the movement of crops for the good and sufficient reason that such deposits are not needed." But this is such an ordinary bit of news as to attract almost no at tention in the din of Armageddon. It sinks into a small corner on the in side page under a dim heading. A great national campaign is on, a cru sade, and leather-lunged reformers are tearing up and) down the land hallooing unto men their shibboleths of salvation. Why divert the public mind with an announcement that the banks everywhere have ample money to move crops and therefore need no assistance? To people who think calmly and seriously the fact is no less Interest ing and satisfying because it la mot particularly startling. Nature gave us abundant crops and found the coun try able to handle them because it has never known more widespread prosperity than it has had for the last four years. If we are going to march to the strains of "Onward, Christian Soldier," let us proceed with old General Prosperity at the head of the column so as to give force and meaning to our song. Bee Ownership and Circulation. While it is doubtful whether con- gress has a right to use the pbetof fice to exact information from new papers as to ownership and circula tion, The Bee is promptly complying with the law recently enacted by re quiring it to file such a statement and the statement is freely made pub lic to our readers, and to all con cerned. The Bee Is nublished bv a corporation, whose share owners are individuals with no private Interest of any kind to subserve as against the public interest - The Bee has for years taken the public freely Into its confidence as to its circulation, so these figures are but a compilation for six months of circulation figures already accessible. )..' Irrigation and the West. The National Irrigation congress now holding its annual session in Salt take City, where twenty years ago It was organized, is attended by delegates from all over the world. This may be taken as a token of the magnitude of irrigation as a trans forming and developing power, Just as the prodigious conquests wrought in our own great west may be taken as the positive results. California, where Irrigation is far . advanced, with all its great strides, has, ac cording to recent reports thus far brought only one-sixth of its irrigable land under water. Other states make similar showings, and these enable us to appreciate what Is yet to be done toward the reclamation of this vast empire of semi-arid soil. The irri gation congress, while dealing with a centuries-old problem, has helped materially to promote the enterprise in this country, and its conventions, therefore, are among those that claim serious consideration. European War Scare. Judge Oary, executive bead of the steel trust now and then accused of having proprietary interest In equip ment for war, returns from Europe pained .and suprlsed , to note the prevalence of a war scare on the con tinent. Prosperity, he says, is quite general, but underneath all is a cur rent of discontent. People sigh for the future, and governments build upon the plan of war. Peace is not permanent, at least not so regarded. But why should this occasion alarm? What is more chronic than a war scare in Europe? Why should Americans let it trouble them when it seems to Indicate a perfectly nor mal condition? All we have to do is what we are doing, calmly standing by our guna exerting our beat en deavors to keep the peace and to pro mote world peace. What this nation has done or sought to do In the last few years has arrested the attention of other countries and, regardless of European miltarlam, set a solemn ob ject lesson before Germany, England, Russia and France, which they have not dared! to ignore. Tet faith in the ultimate triumph of peace over war calls for no senti mental notions as to its immediate consummation. Human, nature and national destiny ' are not suddenly changed. ,, , ; Hear the Bell Sing. , The situation In the democratic party In Nebraska seems to 4e something like thisthe Hltchcocks, the Shallenbergers. the Dahlmens and the Moreheads get the nominations.

Now that is a pretty hot shot. v Listen and you may hear a noise like a ball when the bull's-eye la hit. The new party Is not founded ' on principles, but on Roosevelt. .

In . the light of Boss Flinn's ad mission that he drew up a Joint agreement with Quay and Brown for neutral division of the spoils in Pennsylvania, perhaps his ardent es pousal of the bull moose now m&y be more clearly understood. ooklnBacfewarcl ThbDciy inOmalia GJMPULE.D FROM BEE flUE 1 r OCT. 2.

City Treasurer Hennlngs said personal taxes had been collected more promptly and with less difficulty than ever, 93 per cent of all being brought In In the last four months. J. H.

He has not been a spectacular president but he has been a safe man in a trying time. He has been progressive In his policies, and he has uniformly sought betterments along practical lines. He is not responsible for the control of con gress by an adverse political sentiment The president Is a republican, and he is pledged to the maintenance of republican principles. But he has shown no bitter ness or narrowness of partisanship. He has not directed his administration to the working out of revenges. He has sought friendly relation with the democratic leaders, and has been criticised for that He did his utmost to establish good re lations with republican insurgents, and his advances were boastfully character ized as efforts to divert them from their Ideals. The president Is of Judicial tem perament, and , therefore qualified to measure Issues from their various an gles. Prudence has characterized his work. It has been free, from the mani festations of hotheadedness. He has been derided as spineless, and yet he has not failed on occasion to manifest a high type of moral courage. Matters of large im portance have not been determined from the standpoint of personal interest They have been determined from the standpoint of the publio welfare. The inventive genius of his political ad versaries has found perplexity in pro viding a case against him. They have Slouk City Journal (rep.). as chief ex- . been driven to the alternative of making bogy men whom they have assigned to his company. They have not been able to cloud the president's good name. With the singular political combination against him, he stands today in the midst of the battle unsullied in his personal reputa tion. His mistakes, therefore, have been minor and not major. It is beyond denll that the teat has been severe. The Mexi can situation has been puzzling. He has dealt with it wisely. The troubles in the South American countries have placed the United States under stress of re sponsibility. We remain at peace with the world. The Panama canal is ap proaching completion, and no scandal at taches to the great work. There are del icate international questions, aggravated by congress, associated with its operation. The embarrassment would be greater than it is if the administration was of a frantic turn of mind. Our interests have been guarded, and no great concern of the United States at home or any where in the world has been neglected or bungllngly handled. It Is worth while to think of these things as the end of the campaign of this year approaches. In that association it is well to put a proper measure upon the Industrial situation, the general prosper, lty, of this people. It Is well to consider what Is. Whatever may be said, despite ail the complaint made In the line of politics, the fact stands forth that the service of the administration has been good, and that the sense of security un der that service has remained unshaken. MAN GAINS A DEFENDER Ida Tarbell Discourses Cheer up! Mere man and his rights have a staunch advocate in Miss Ida Tarbell, historian and essayist "All things oon iidered.M she writes in the American Magazine, "woman has been no greater sufferer from Injustice than man. I do not mean in saying this that she has not had her grave and unjust handicaps legal and social; I mean that when you come to study the comparative situations of men and women as a mass at any time and in any country you will find them more nearly equal than unequal, all things considered. "Women have suffered Injustice,, but parallel have been the Injustices men were enduring. It was not tne fact that he was a woman that put her at a dis advantage so much as the fact that might made right, and the "physically weaker everywhere bore the burden of the dnv. Go back no further than the beginnings of tms repuwio and admit all that can be said of the wrong In the lawi which prevent a woman controlling the property she had inherited or accumulated by her own efforts, which took from her a proper share of the control of her child we must admit the equal enormity of the laws which permitted men to exploit labor In the outrageous way they have. It was not because he was a man that the la- on "Human Injustice." borer was explolted-lt was because he was the weaker in the prevailing system. Woman's case was parallel she was the weaker in the system. "It has always been the case with men and women in the world that he who could, took and the devil got the hinder most The way the laborer's cause has gone hand In hand in this country the last hundred years with the woman's cause is a proof of the point In the '80s of the nineteenth century, for illustration, the country was torn by a workingraen's party which carried on a fierce agitation against banks and monopolies. Many of its leaders were equally ardent In their support of women's rights as they were then understood. The slavery agitation was coupled from the start with the ques tion of woman's rights. It was injustice that was being challenged the right of the stronger to put the weaker at a dis advantage for any reason because he was poor not rich, black not white, female not male that is, there has been nothing spe cial to women in the injustice she has suffured Axrpnt 1t rmrtlmlnr fnrm XTni. over, it was not man ss man who was responsible for this Injustice. Strong women have always imposed upon the weak men and women as strong men have done. In the essence It is a human not a sex problem this of Injustice." NOTE THE DIFFERENCE Treatment of the President by Eival Candidates. , New Tork Evening Post. Few things that Governor Wilson said or did, in his tour last week, evoked more immediate and positive ' comment among those who read the newspaper reports of his speeches, and were more promptly recognised by the press, Man his references to President Taft. Mr. Wilson, speaking at Minneapolis, in a part of the country where Mr. Taft is confessedly unpopular, had criticised the policies of the republican administration. But be added, speaking from the purely personal point of view: I want to pay my tribute of respect to the president of the United States. I do not believe that any man in Me United States who knows his facts can question the patriotism or the integrity or the publio purpose of the man who now pre sides at the executive office in Wash ington. - fWte doubt if there was a single listener to that utterance, or a single reader of It the following morning, who did not say tot himself: 'This is a magnani mous campaigner, and a gentleman." We are Impelled to call the Incident .to mind, in the light of the comment made yesterday on the president of the United States by another opposing presidential candidate. Observing, from his platform at Springfield, Mo., fa campaign banner bearing the name of the president of the United States, Mr. Roosevelt said (we quote from the report in his New fork organ): "Any man who supports the receiver of stolen' goods stands on a level with the receiver of Me stolen goods. He Is a dishonest man, and Is unfit to asso ciate with honest men." We wonder how many readers of this remark said to themselves, when they laid their) paper down, "This may be an energetic publio man, but is he a mag nanimous campaigner, and Is he quite a gentleman?" meBeftUlerlSox Sr . u J Proof Taft Sentiment is Growing. HEBRON. Neb., Oct i-To the Editor of The Bee: I have been noticing the political situation in this part of the state for the last few weeks and note that the Taft following is growing stronger in Mis county every day.

I was out about seven hours, all the time I could spare, and sent In a petition of eighty- four names, and they are all for Taft The Rooseveltians have contended that two-thirds of this county would go tor Roosevelt, but it is an even bet that the Taft men are as strong as the Teddyltes, and if I had time to canvass this county I could get as many (and that Is putting It mild) Taft men on a petition as there are Roosevelt TUa progressive-republican talk Is all talk. , HENRY ALLEN BRAINERD, .
