Flaying: a Wide Open Game.
The) political disturbance in Mexico is begin
ning to take on something of resemblance to
another Mexican national Institution, the game
of "monte," in which no limit is placed on the
number of players, where anybody can demand
a turn of the cards for any sum of money, great
or small, and where the "bank" is under obliga
tions to "take a tap at any time." The latest
player in the gane Is Felipe Angeles, sometime
artillery chief In one of the "armies," who
thinks he will make as good a president as any
and who will stand as a new head for "Pancho".
Villa to fight "under. Angeles' announced aspi
rations are sot such at give any support to the
probability of immediate composition of dif
ferences now holding back peace for Mexico.
Crafty Carransa has reopened the way to Mexico
City, thereby in part meeting the demands of
the United States and forestalling action prom
ised for this week by our government. In this
may be seen the cleverness of Obregon, who still
looms far over all the others in qualities of
leadership. Talk of a 'conference" to talk over
settlement, regardless of Carransa, persists, and
(he first chief still holds to his declaration not
to consult with VUla or Zapata until they sur
render, in which event the conference will quite
likely be brief. The solution of the Mexican
problem is yet to be found.

Employment for Eyerybodj.
"The specter of unemployment has been ban-
ihhed." says Dr. Karl Jlellfrich, secretary of the
imperial German treasury, in a statement re
counting the achievements of the war. Not only
in Germany, but in England, Belgium, France,
Austria. Russia, Holland, Italy and other coun
tries has unemployment disappeared. The great
est forces of workmen ever assembled are work
ing overtime in a most gigantlo undertaking.
Human life and human achievement are being
wiped out In staggering totals by this tremen
dous aggregation of skilled worker in tha trade
of destruction.
Back of the lines women and children are
tolling at unwonted tasks to keep the machinery
of communal life In motion. The abnormal ac
tivity has spread to other countries than those
actually at war. Neutral nations are being railed
upon to exert themselves in extraordinary ways,
that they may contribute something to th
progress of the war. It Is a time that surpasses
In Us superabundance of employment any th
world has ever recorded. Nor' is there any im
mediate prospect of another extensive period of
enforced Idlenees for anybody. Between tbre
and four millions of the smartest skilled work
ers lu Europe have been slain In battle during
the twelve-month of the war, and more than that
many are permanently crippled. Their Jobs are
open.
Indeed, the "specter of unemployment" has
rot only been banished, but it Is driven so far
back Into the discard that It will be a long time
before any complaint is again beard of lack of
work.
Pointers On Political Pie
Loup City Timee-lndependent, (dem.): At laat th
patronage aqtiabhle In Nebraska aeema to have been
adjusted and Prealdent Wllaon haa made th appoint
ments. We hav no fault to find with the men choaen.
They are all competent men and old-time democratla
fighters. It la true that other men were picked out
for three places, who were perhaps Junt aa competent
and Jtit aa deaervtng. but aomehody hed to be disap
pointed. Where don la don and the Nebraska demo
crats are glad It Is done.
Kearney Tlmea, (dem ): No democrats, In on the
know, ever doubted, after the resignation of Mr.
Hryan. that Tom Allen would be the choice for dis
trict attorney, If the Lincoln gentleman wanted It.
Mr. ftryan'a request would have abeolutely asaured
thla thing coming to paaa. While Mr. Bryan wni a
member of the cabinet he probably would not hav
made the requeat. but he naturally occupied a more
strategical noa'tlon In patronage mattera. Involving a
relative, after he had left than ha did before. And If
he wanted a certain man for the position and cared to
make the request, how could ha have been turned
down? There la no question but Senator Hitchcock
felt thla true, and, though he perhaps desired aomeone
elae, he will no doubt bow gracefully to the Inevitable.
Senator Hitchcock knowa th game of polltlca and,
withal, we firmly bcllev he Is a good loaer. If tn
reality he has lost anything.
liaattnga Republican, (dem.)! The Nebraska ap-
pointmenta announced Friday from the Whit limine
would Indicate somewhat of a compromise division be
tween Hitchcock and Bryan Flynn and McCune of
Omaha of the Hitchcock picking and Ixiomla and Alton
satisfactory to the Hryan end of It. If there la any
advantage Hitchcock'a way It la explained by the ap
pointment of Hrynn'a brother-in-law, Tom Allen. Pvt
the appointments have been made and we suppose it
la up to all democrats to feel satisfied and. look
pleaaant.
Newman Grove Reporter, (Ind ): Some more of the
federal plums In Nebraska have fallen Into tha bate
of the faithful workera. Two of them are Bryan men
and two are Hitchcock men. And there la still no
peace In the democratic: party In Nebraaka. The Bryan
men got the best jobs.
Peward Blndc. idem.): After two long years of
weary waiting, President Wilson appointed two Bryan
and two Hitchcock democrata to th big federal of
flrea In Nebraaka. - Thus Bryan secures the two heat
offlcea for his frlenda, but what Penator Hitchcock will
do when the appointments come before th senate for
confirmation remains to be seen.
Broken Bow Republican, (dem.): President Wllaon
gave the federal plum tree a somewhat vigorous shake
laat week and four of ita Juiciest pluma dropped
within reach of four of "th faithful" In Nebraska,
The flrat two tore classed aa Bryan men and th laat
two aa Hitchcock men. So It looka like an "even
break" for the two democratic factions so far. Of
course, the senator will hav a chance for another
say" In tha matter when It come for aenatorlal
confirmation of these appointments. But, as th sen
ator will have a campaign of hla own on hand at
that time, many people believe he will be In a poaltion
to do nothing but "take hla medicine," regard lese of
how distasteful it may be to him.
St. Paul Phonograph, (item.): ffonor Hltchooeli
says he will discuss the appointment of two Bryan
men to federal positions "later," Inferring that when
the appointments are brought up in the senate for
confirmation, h may hav something to do or say.
It cornea to a pretty paaa when any one man can exert
such Influence over th democratic party In this stat.
Th prealdent haa appointed four men to Important
federal poeltlona In this stat. Two are known to b
Bryan men. The silk stocking gentleman from Omaha,
who is now misrepresenting tb democrats In th sen
ate at Washington, la satisfied with the appointment
of the two Hitchcock men, but when it comes to tho
two Bryan men he dealrea to wait a while before say
ing anything. Our senator will return to washing
ton next December to again harass the beat demo
cratic prealdent that we ever had, and then h win
return horn during the campaign and tell th "dear
pepul" how he admire the president. In the hop
that li wlU again secure the nomination for th sen
ate. If he doea, and It looka Ilk he may, he will b
In for th moat beautiful drubbing that any on man
ever received In the etate. Whenever any man be
comes so big that he must hav everything his own
way, or elae h won't play, then we say It Is time
tor a change.

KEARNEY, Neb., Aug. 1 To the Editor
of Tb Be: Obviously th Wllaon ad
ministration has little. If any, confi
dence In th efficacy of Mr. Bryan's
proffered war panacea, for while he (Mr.
Bryan) propounds hla plana at five hun
dred and up per, the United Statea gov
ernment la elaborately preparing for war.
Which fact leada one to believe that it la
reasonable to presume that the United
States War department la in possession
of facts relative to th European war sit
uation which hav not aa yet been dK
vulged to th reading public, and also,
that congress believes war la Inevitable.
It may be true, however, that the unuaual
activity la merely a precautionary proce
dure, th incentive for which can log
ically be attributed to the Insolent atti
tude of th Imperial German government
toward the government of th United
States.
Germany la obstinate and fully cognis
ant of her position aa a fighting power
among th nations of tho world, and will
not concede a single point to th United
Btates or any other nation In th present
controversy. The United States govern
ment Is not Ignorant of tha United Statea'
available resources and ability to compel
fair treatment to her cltlsens, but th
American people are Intelligent to such a
degree as to possess the Instinct of equity
and to know th difference between right
and wrong and willing to be shown and
glad to apologise when wrong, but firm
and determined when In th right.
Prealdent Wilson -should be sure he Is
right in the German-American contro
versy, then exhaust every known pro
cedure and counsel th most learned dip
lomats In an effort to bring Germany to
se tb facta as this government sees
them. To determine whether or not we
ar In ths right this government ahould
plao Itself In th position which Ger
many occupies, then ask. "What woutd th
United States government do if It waa at
war with England and Germany with
full knowledge of the fact that tti
United 6tatea had established a blockade
of th English porta, In an effort to
bring England to aubmUsIon and termin
ate tha war, and Germany ahould persist
In carrying contraband to England?"
Would th United States submarine re
spect th German flag when It was
known to float over a cargo of contra
band billed for England and Intended to
b ud to aid and etrangthen our enemy?
Maybe thla German-American controversy
la an open question? Take your time,
Prealdent Wllaon, to get right and do all
In your power to keep ua out of th fuss.
but If it la poasibl only by sacrificing
national honor, and you don't want to
do that, wblatl and we'll report for duty
