"The Great Snpportinf Factor."
From the moothly bulletin on business con
ditions J uft Issued by the National City bank of
New York, which institution has exceptional op
portunities to Wl the financial pulse of the
country, we take the following sentence, Indi
cating where the hope of the induetrlal revival
lies:
The middle wee! Ik In excellent condition be
cause of the high price farm products are com.
msndtn. and Its huylna- powers are certain to he
a reat supporting; factor In the situation for the
year to come.
That tells the story In a few words, and ex
plains why the middle west Is the cynosure of
all eyes in the business world. The middle west
has the raw materials, and is ready to furnish
the consumption market as soon as Its products
are convertible. No field exists anywhere so
inviting for the cultivation of manufaeturers,
merchants, producers and every one who has
things to sell that are worth buying. The mid
dle west Is the "great supporting factor" in the
situation, and Is bound to continue so for at
least a year to come.
The Mantle of Charity.
From one of our country exchanges for
obvious reasons, we do not mention the nme
we take the following extract:
When you tnlk ahout the subsidized press there
are hut few large city papers which are not subsi
dised hy the llfuor trust. The real facts of the
suicide which shocked this community last week
were sent to several city papers, Omaha World-
Herald, Omaha Pee and Fremont Tribune, and we
believe in every riui the reference to the victim's
liquor habit wtm suppressed. Therefore the real
fact In tne case waa covered up a ad the pet saloon
Interests were shielded from all unfavorable notice,
when It Is senerally known that the victim's down
fall lay at the door of the saloon.
Now, we do not know anything about this
particular case, but accepting the facts as set
forth, what a terrible arraignment it Is of the
boartless editor who sees no good object by
placarding an unfortunate suicide as a "drunk
ard" just to hit the liquor devil a rap on the
knuckles. We presume the poor wretch who
has passed to the great beyond had at least a
few friends, and possibly a family, who over
looked his frailties and found some faint streaks
of pure gold In him. "De mortuis nil nlst
bonum" is a pretty good rule to follow and to
be disregarded only where pulling aside the
mantle of charity promises to accomplish some
thing worth while for the living.
Virginia's going "dry" seems to have been
on the theory that "charity begins at. home."
for while It has prohibited the sale of liquor to
Its own citizens, it has not forbidden its manu
facture for shipment to other states.
Some day busy Nebraskans will find time to
exploit the rare scenic beauties of our state and
hen they do some of our own and other people
iwlli open their eyes in wonderment, both at the
rrodigles and our tardiness in exploiting them.
Our Outlying Boulevards.
It Is only a question of time when our people
will develop the natural driveways that skirt
the environs of Omaha and when they do we
shall have as picturesque system of boulevards
as can be found anywhere. Kansas City, whose
outlying districts strikingly resemble Omaha's
has developed eighty miles of connected boule
vards within and without the corporate limits
and anyone who has ever driven over this pretty
chain of roadways and Is familiar. with Omaha's
topography, Its wooded hills and commanding
eminences, can appreciate what is within our
reach.
As a matter of fact, the time Is close at hand
when we should turn our attention more defi
nitely In this direction. To be sure, some of
these roads are already moderately well Im
proved, but none Is as yet up to its possibilities.
Only lately our attention has been called, with
a good deal of chagrin, to the miserable condi
tion of the Omaha-Lincoln-Denver road between
this point and Lincoln. While, of course, this
ought to be corrected as soon as possible, much
is to be done even nearer home. About the worst
bit of driving surface In or around the city is
that strip of so-called boulevard from Fort
Omaha to the Florence line north. Any driver
who can do so avoids this stretch, which recalls
the old corduroy roadway of other days more
than anything we know of. Just why this road
Is left In Its present condition is unexpllcable,
except as another case where there Is no fixed
responsibility,
Will Alaska Furnish More Gold?
One commercial need acutely felt In the
United States as a result of the war Is for gold.
Of foodstuffs, building materials, fue' and other
supplies we have abundance. But the govern
ment has found it necessary to arrange a $100,-
000,000 gold pool to meet an emergency de
mand.
It is especially interesting that just at thlsi
time Alakka reports another big gold discovery
and the Influx of another horde of gold pros
pectors. Great predictions are made of this as
the largest of all Alaskan gold booms thus far.
It would be a mighty impetus to the country's
efforts to meet the tstk put upon it hy warring
Europe if this proved true. But, lest someone
hasten to remark upon the strange coincidence
of a big gold discovery at a time when a larger
volume of gold is needed, let us repeat what the
Tacoma Tribune has said to the effect that all
of our remarkable mineral discoveries have
come "when Jaded conditions of business were
needing relief." Citing the California boom of
1I4S-49, the silver finds In Nevada, Idaho and
Montana and Colorado Immediately after the
civil war and lastly the great Yukon gold up
heaval In the '90s.
If Alaska is to come to the relief of a lag
ging gold supply, this Is the auspicious time.

You will, of course, have formed our
own opinion as to the rights and wronRi

letter Box and find great pleasure and
education In "most" of same, but It
seems that the column has lately been
monopolized by German sympathizers.
rhn do not seem to know enough to

These gentlemen and their followers
seem so anxious to have the headlines of
the dally papers show that the armies of

trary to facts.

ARLINGTON, Neb.. Oct. 4.-To the Ed
itor of The Be: I see In the Letter Box
of your paper that George Olthoff thinks
thd Germans hsve done so much for the
Lnlted 8tatea and that Germany la such
good friend of ours.
Now I think the United States has
more than amply repaid all Germans for
what they have done for It. and further
more, Germans ought to be pretty glad
to be her Instead of being over In Eu
rope fighting for royalty. Had he kaiser
crossed over into France where It bordora
on Germany he might have accomplished
something. Instead of trying to cross
through Pelglum. nut the fart of the
matter Is, he thought he could whip all
Europe and will find himself mistaken.
Oermany tried to butt In when wa
fought Spain, but one of her admirals
was told how to head In by Admiral
Dewey, and later our president told the
kaiser whst he must do and quickly, too.

Thirty-four t'nlted states senators will be elected
by populsr vote this fall. The terms of sixteen demo
cratln and sixteen republican senstors now serving will
expire March I, 1915, end twr vacancies are to be filled
where senstors now hold by sppolntment.
Even though the lections should reveal no marked
shift of political strength, there will be a numlier of
notable changes In the make-up of the senate, es
pecially on the republican side. Neither Senator Root
of New Tork rror Senator Burton of- Ohio, two of the
ablest members of the present minority, have sought
re-election. Senator Perkins of California, who Is
serving his third term, will drop out next spring, and
also Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin. Senator Prls
tow of Kansas and Senator Crawford of South Pakotu.
have been beaten at the primaries by other candidates
for the republican nomination.
On the democratic sldo. the election of Represen
tative Underwood to succeed Senator White of Ala
bama, who was elected last spring to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Senator Johnston, Is assured.
In Louisiana. Representative Broussard has been
nominated by the democrats to succeed Senator Thorn
ton. In every other case where a democratic senator
now represents the stste he has been renominated by
his party. In practically all the states except In the
south where United States senators are to be elected
the progressives haVe entered the race.
In addition to the thirty-two senators regularly-to
be chosen, two others will be elected, one In Georgia
to succeed Senator West, who was appointed on the
death of Senator Bacon, and another In Kentucky,
where Senator Camden, appointed, on the death of
Senator Bradley, has been nominated by the democrats
for the short term, and former Governor Beckham for
the long term.
Moral Leader of World.
Philadelphia Tubllc Ledger.
Not the least significant feature of the present war
Is the constant appeal of the combatants to public
opinion In the United States. The position of this
country as the most. Important neutral power does not
wholly account for It. Neither does the president's
offer of mediation snd the possibility that It may
eventually be accepted furnish a sufficient explana
tion. What the European nntlons particularly Germany
Franco and Great Britain ask Is something more than
the preservation of strict neutrality, which. Indeed,
they may take for granted. They seek to submit the
case to us as a moral court of last resort. The kaiser
addresses the president personally, some of his most
eminent subjects set forth the German side In an
elaborate document; the Belgians send over a commis
sion, the Austrian ambassador at Washington writes
a magaslne article, the British newspapers are filled
with vindications for the benefit of American reader:).
An object so striven for Is obviously important.
In other words, our nation has gained something
like moral leadership of the world. Europe would not
be so anxious for our favor were it not of the utmost
value. There Is, of course, no reason why we should
play the braggart and boaster, or assume an attitude
of superior virtue; to do that would be to discredit
the distinction. Nevertheless, It Is worth while for us
to consider seriously the causes which have brought
us to this eminence and given us a central "place In
the sun."

It Is an Instance of the prevalence of Ironle fate
over the effort of the railways to get their rates
raised, that they secured a grant of rehearing Just In
time to have the statistics show a marked Increase in
the activity of cara. The reports for August of the
American Railway association, a strictly corporate
organisation, showed that during August 33,300 Idle and
side-tracked cars had gone Into operation. The report
for the first half of September swells this total by
27,277.
Over 60.000 Idle cars put Into operation in about six
weeks! This Is a dismal record of the railroad Idleness
which, according to their representatives. Is threat
ening to reduce them to ruin unless they get the full 5
per cent advance. In their gloomy view, the reduction
of Idle cars In August meant that cars were loaded
and "backed up" as fur as Iowa owing to the blockado
on exports. The September Increase In activity must
back them ud to Denver, If not clear to California.
But what 'fatuity It is for the railroads to put Idle cars
Into operation when they cannot move them accord

People and Events
Submarines Score
GRINS AND GROANS.
Pittsburgh Dispatch: The sinking of
three British armored cruisers of type
described as "obsolete," and certainly
rather aged, is not a grave reduction of
the British naval surremsry. But the
fact that they were sunk by submarines
rsrrles the very serious suggestion that If
the latrst super-dreadnaughts go into
action they will be Just as liable to this
attack and may meet the same fate.
New Tork' Times: The British loss In
the engagement Just reported was meas
urably compensated by the destruction of
two German submarines. The Herman
navy at the outset of the wsr had
twenty-seven of these destructive craft
and ten building. Three have now been
lost. The engagement took place near the
German coast. Indicating that British war
vessels are assembling in hostile waters
and that a great naval battle may not be
long deferred.
.-pringiieia KepuDiican: This success
will doubtless Inspire the Germans to new
endeavors with their submarines, of
which, however, they had completed but
twenty-four to England's seventy-two ten
months ago. and then had but twelve
buljdlnir to England's twenty-two. Yet
even if the submarine may prove the ves
sel of the future, through eventual devel
opment in slse, cruising radius and speed,
it Is not In Its present development capa
ble of accomplishing the actual command
of the sea. England's mastery there Is
not seriously threatened.
Indianapolis News: 'The loss except the
loss of life, which was undoubtedly great
Is, of course, not serious. The enormous
British flet will hardly feel it. Tha
question Is as to the possibility of future
attacks of a similar nature. Two have
already been attempted on shrps at some
distance from the shore, and In both
esses the submarines were destroyed by
gunfire. It Is conceivable that they might
have been and that others may be suc
cessful. Blockade work must be a ner
vous business In these days of torpedoes

BEFORE your grandfather was a father, men
who were good judges said, "CEDAR BROOK,
to be sure." Judge Wm. H. McBrayer was a
good Judge, as history will show. At the early age

superior quality for bourbon whiskey which his brand,
CEDAR BROOK, has maintained to this very day.
