Money in the Middle We it.
The answer of the reserve banks of the
laddie, went to Secretary McAdoo s offer to
place government money with them for the mov
ing of the crops, la a fair Indication of the gen
ersl conditions in this part of the country. The
n.snaRers of the reserve banks replied to the
secretary of the treasury that plenty of money Is
on hand In this region for all purposes. Busi
ness generally is good, and the farmers are so
comfortable In their situation that they may
sell this season's crop at their leisure. Forced
marketing Is no longer in vogue In the great
western empire. A steady, regulated movement
of fTops to market has succeeded the old-time
rush, and Is bringing Its reward In shape of bet
ter returns to the producer. Harvest time always
ri fords a new Impulse for business, though, and
Just now all lines are feeling the impetus given
by the assurance of another record breaking
yield. The backing of the United States treas
ury is a good thing to have, but the west does
rot require it.
What'i the Constitution Between Friends ?
What's the constitution between friends any
way? The democratic guardians of this sacred
srk of the covenant down at the state house
have each taken a solemn oath to obey and en
force the constitution of Nebraska, but are now
adays busy finding ways to violate it. One sec
tion of the constitution says expressly:
No money ehnll be drawn from the treaaury ax
ce.pt In pursuance to a specific appropriation made
by law.
But when the state treasurer refused to
honor warrants drawn In favor of the fire war
den for moneys which the legislature had failed
to appropriate, the attorney general advised that
the requisitions be nonetheless honored because
the fire warden's office collected fees In suffi
ciency to rover the amount. To overcome the
persistency of the treasurer's refusal, leave was
finally asked of the supreme ourt to file an
application for a writ of mandamus, whereupon
the treasurer suddenly discovers that the ap
propriation of firo warden's fees mado by the
proceding legislature of 1913 Is available up to
Ft pt ember 1 last. Presto, change! The treas
urer reconsiders his refrsal, the attorney gen
eral withdraws his nai usiui petition, and the
tug-of-wsr Is temporarily postponed.
But another section of the state constitution
reads:
Kach lestnlnturc nhall make appropriation for the
expenses of the sovernment until the aspiration of
tho flrat fiscal quarter after the adjournment of the
next reaulnr aeaalon, and all appropriations ahall end
with such flHCal quarter.
It usually has been assumed that the appro
priations of each legislature lapsed not later
than July of each biennial year. The purpose
Is to prevent continuing appropriations and
make each administration stand financially on
Its own bottom. If this provision of the consti
tution, therefore, means anything, it is hard to
sre how the appropriation referred to remains
available to the first of September without laps
ing, except by stretching the plain letter of the
law.
Incidence and Coincidence.
A somewhat remarkable Illustration of the
working of the law of probabilities comes from
Washington Just now. The fortuitous presence
tt the nation's capital at the same time of the
Little Olant and the former secretary of state
riade it possible for them to call together on the
attorney general, on whose recommendation
primarily rests the filling of a vacancy on the
federal bench. It is not to be thought that this
meeting and call was prearranged; far be It
from such. It Just happened that Mr. Thomp
son had some business at Washington in connec
tion with an Irrigation project that could be put
off no longer; Mr. Bryan remembered that
something be had overlooked till then required
his attention at the capital, and, most remark
able of all, Mr. Gregory had Just ended his little
vacation trip. Altogether, it seems a wonderful
working out of the proposition that everything
it ill happen that ought to, but it isn't very en
couraging to other aspirants for the ermine,
when they reflect on what occurred when
I'rother-ln-Law Tommy Allen shied his hat into
the ring.
Word from Stefantton.
Out of the icy vastnesa of the north polar
region comes a message that will make the
world -turn from the war for a moment, while
it gives Its tribute of regard to the personality
of a rugged man. Tbe word is from Vllhjalmur
Stefansson, and announces his safety and that
of his two companions, who were last seen by
the party under his leadership, drifting to the
north on an ice floe that had been broken away
from the main body by an arctle gale. When
Stefansson last came back to civilization from
the north, he brought with him the story of a
race of blonde Esquimaux, and for months the
sctentlflo world was agog over this and other
discoveries he had made. What additional In
formation he will have of his adventures and in
cstIgatlon since he drifted from sight of land
in March of last year may not even now be con
jectured, but It is some gratification to know
that this hardy explorer has conquered the ad
versities of that forbidding land, and may yet
come back to astonish us with further informa
tion, curious If not useful, of men and beasts
under the very top of the world.
Because "St. Paul day" put tt over "Mln
neapolls day" at tbe state fair, the Minneapolis
Journal knocks on the whole system of so
called "special" days for different cities at such
public shows. It calls the awarding of days to
cities " silly custom" without any compensat
ing benefit. We fear, however, Minneapolis
wculd not have discovered how "silly" It all is,
had "Minneapolis dsy" only scored bigger than
St. Paul day."
It took thirty days to raise the Sunday cam
paign expense money in Paterson. and twenty
tlx days to raise it in Des Moines, where, how
ever, the budget was much smaller than in
tlther Paterson or Omaha. The impression
given out thot In this respect Omaha is proving
a "tight-wad" Is entirely unwarranted.
The -attentions paid by foreigners to Miss
Columbia sre too precipitate to command
cousinly favor. The danger of kidnaping, how
eter, is remote. Tbe great American heiress is
sufficiently experienced to wink tbe other eye
and whisper: "Gentlemen, this Is too sudden."
Now for the New Dances
Irew Tork Times
UNTIL, the other dey many prraons In New York
and other eaatam rttica were thought to be pretty
well pooled on the lateat dance etepa. This
created a certain amount of amateur competition tor
the dancing master. The dancing maatera of the
Second district, which Includes a number of eaatern
states, have Juat developed a plan of campaign, how
ever, which they calculate would put the teaching of
the very lateet steps under their control for a few
montha. and at the end of that period they will meet
again to create mora new faahlona In dancing. This
step waa taken In an effort to outflank what many
of them have termed their greateat enemy, tha New
Tork cabaret, which, they Bay. waa creating new
dance atepa faater than the dancing maatera them
aelvea could learn them.
The flanking movement waa decided upon at a
meeting of tha Second dlatrlct maatera held In Dur-
yea's Dancing academy following the Congresa of
American Dancing Maatera held last week In this city
Aa a consequence New York has now at least ten
new dancea to learn. All were demonstrated by Oscar
Duryea, and after looking on awhile the gathered
male and female dancing maatera from thla and other
cltiea, the former In ahlrtaleevea and the latter look
ing aa wilted from the heat aa ever did suffering dance
ptipila In any of their arhools, took teaaona in tha new
atepa until they felt that they were letter per foot
perfect.
The nil mra of the new dances aa made public In
clude tha perlcon, the globe trot, the national fox tro.
the exposition waits, the march mllltalre and the
eyncopated waltz. The other four new dancea are
thoae "standardised" by the Dancing Masters' con
gress. The perlcon. It la explained. Is intended prin
cipally for exhibition purposes The globe trot la a
rollicking, barn-dancy eort of thing Intended for the
youngest of the younger generation. The march mlll
talre Is a product of the dance psychology produced
by tha war. The others sre new forms of old dances.
According to Robert C. Campbell, an Albany dance
teacher, who presided, the tendency of dancers la to
return to some of the graceful features of the waits,
and the aim of the dancing maatera Is to invent new
and graceful steps to take the place of eome of the
horrora" that the cabaret haa produced.
"We want to purge present day dancing," ha aald.
"Variations of the old waits stepa have been Intro
duced In a number of the new dancea that are being
brought out. Last year was a comparatively poor
year for the dancing Instructor despite the number of
dancing schools that aprang up everywhere, for the
war depression seemed to take people's minds from
the art, but wa expect a boom in dancing thla seaaon.
It can ba sensed already, and coupled with It will be
a return to common-sense ideas In dancing. The hesi
tation steps will not be so popular thla year aa they
have been; the eyncopated waits will continue
popular."

for adequate military and naval equip

There Is no doubt that your editorial
will meet with a favorable opinion
throughout the state. Expieaslons of
popular aentiment coming to me from
frlenda Ir various parts of our state, con
vince me that Nehraskans stand for a
policy of adequate naval defense.
During my absence on summer vaca
tion, some of my friends took It upon
themselves to elect me to the office of
president of the Nebraska section of the
Navy league of the United Ptatea. and
upon my return, they urged me to ac
cept the office. This I have done be
cause of the conviction held that t.'ncle
Sam must maintain a strong navy for
national defense, and to promote our
commerce throughout the world. My
convictions along this line have boeii
more than confirmed by the utterances
of aome of the best men of the nation,
and the Navy League of the United
States haa Issued a number of pamphlets
on the aubject. which throw a strong
light upon the nation s condition of un

Editor of The Bee: I have been a sub

I am always Intensely Interested In the
column headed "The Bee's Letter Box."
Of late, however, there have appeared
a number of articles from one Luclen
Stebblns. and from hla attacka on the
Christian religion a right thinking man
Is forced to believe him a product of the
"dark agea."
I say. If this religion Is so obnoxious
to Mr. Stebblns, perhaps the civilised
world would not miss him greatly should
he betake himself to some pagan country
where the religion would better fit hla
ideas.
The church of Jeaua Chrlat is tha most
broadening and rathollo organisation
among men, since Its vision Is to the
ends of the world whither the gospel Is
being carried and aince its cltisenshlp is
in heaven as well aa In the earth.

such unmanly utterances. I live In the

Lutheran church refuses to Join other
denominations In an appeal for peace to
the governments of Europe on the ground
that It ia a political move. The report
aaya It la not the policy of tha Lutheran
church to participate In politlca or to
take action looking toward the Influenc
ing of governments. I can see nothing
political about any church trying to bring
about peace. The Lutheran church In
America haa been trying to Influence tha
government to place an embargo on arma
and ammunition to tha alllea. At nearly
every church council or meeting through
out the United States they have aent pro
teata to President Wilson In regard to
this. Which Is tnore of a political move?

OMAHA, Kept. I7.-To tha Editor of
Tha Bee: Since the Christiana of tho
city are all too busy working for Ood
and enjoying tha feast of their Uvea to
pay any attention to what tha alnners
are saying against thla religious move
ment I win venture a word. If thla '
"bunch" would only uaa their energy j
against me vtoes of our land as strongly
as they are using that energy against
one who Is out tooth and nail for the
Bible, they might accomplish something.
If Mr. Sunday delivered a speech with
out hitting tha vices you'd never hear a
word out of theae knocaera. Hit a cur
and ha always yelps. A man doesn't aet
up a howt. Tve paid mora to churches
and preachers than I will give to "Billy
Sunday. I won't have to. because "Billy"
Sunday la reaching out and getting every,
body Interested. Moat preachers have no
interest In you unleaa you belong to their
cnurcn or nave the money. In lh
churches the expenses all fail on a few,
and that's why wa each pay mure to
preachers thsn any of us do to "Billy"
Sunday. He gets only a little from each.
Too many preachera have such a cold,
formal way of shaking hands that they
repel people from the church.
Any belief Is all right for some people.
There's a bunch that's always alck or
always Imagine they are Insulted. Such
a bunch needs Christian Scletve, because
It's the only science on earth that can
find anything the matter with them, and
It flnrta It and sends them on their way
rejoicing.
In any reform It Is a fact that Just as
quick as one fellow forges ahead ef tha
rest and accomplishes things extraordi
nary, then half the "bunch Jumps onto
him and they would kill him If they
could. It la all Jealousy born of the devil
and nothing else. The "likes of you"
cannot hurt "Hilly" Sunday, and It only
does people good to know he hit you.
