A Place for Omaha to Oct Buj.
Minneapolis Is Jubilating through Us naws
pppers over a new and assured achievement from
which great things are expected, being the es
tablishment ot "a central Industrial tract" upon
i hlch It hopes to build up a large manufacturing
center. With the last obstacle removed. It Is
now possible, we are told, for Minneapolis to
provide 100 new industries with factory sites.
Ideal In trackage facilities and arrangement and
relation to the city, with terminal service by
every one of the nine railroad systems centering
there. At one corner of the tract is to be a
Joint freight depot where lese-th en-carload lota
cf both "In" and "out" freight for all these
roads is to be handled.
"Consider what this means toy the commerce
of Minneapolis." exclaims the Journal, and It
tells uo that the three principal factors that have
brought this admirable project to fruition are
"the Industrial association, splendidly officered
and with an 'investing membership quite rep
resentative of Minneapolis commercial and other
interests;' a city government, which, through the
council, has made the replattlng of the tract
possible, and haa pushed through the Immediate
opening and Improvement of a center arterial
radway; and the nine railroad systems con
verging, in Minneapolis" each Indispensable to
the accomplishment
The Bee calls attention to what Minneapolis
la doing aa an example of municipal and civic
progressive! for the purpose ot spurring on
Omaha to make fuller use of our opportunities.
With our exceptional and peculiarly favored
natural conditions and abundance of railroad
trackage freely accessible, we are not sure
Omaha requires the setting aside of a special
manufacturing center, but we do know that a
great deal more can be done than haa been done
for encouraging and building up new Industrial
enterprises here, employing labor which In turn
circulates the wagea earned through the chan
nels of retail trade. The very fact that Minne
apolis, Kansas City and other growing western
cities are so active along these lines should ad
monish us In Omaha that we, too, must get busy.
Making Ready for Winter.
Existence along the battle front in Europe
may he a trifle more precarious than on the
crowded streets of a modern cly, or In the busy
workshops of the world, but It Is also Just a lit
tle bit more comfortable for the soldier than the
humble home he bad to provide for himself out
cf his meager earnings. It is to continue, ap
parently, for the Italian government has Just
placed an order with American firms for a huge
supply of lumber,-to be used In making com
fortable the trenches its soldiera are to occupy
during the coming winter months. Thla action,
and the preparations already made by others of
the belligerents, pressges another winter in the
field, where the soldiers will be cared for in the
most tender fashion. The luxurious life ot the
soldier, compared to the Inconveniences the
European worklngmen must endure, ought to
make the service so attractive aa to avoid the
necessity of conscription in England. It's a
long time since Washington spent the winter at
Valley Forge, or since Napoleon's men frose to
death on the retreat from Moscow. General
January and General February are still In the
service, hut they are no longer the mighty and
deciding factors in campaigns.
Hark Taplej Back Number.
Mark Tapley must give over his well-worn
laurela and stand out of the way of Mr. William
McAdoo aa the champion optimist. While Mr.
McAdoo's colleagues in the president's cabinet.
Messrs. Daniels and Garrison, are outlining their
plans for a greater army and navy, at the esti
mated expense of several hundred millions, the
secretary of the treasury . goes airily along his
way without any expressed uneasiness. His.
budget obligations will be more than halt a bil
lion dollars greater than the incoming revenue
of the government, but this fact doesn't worry
htm in the least He sketchlly tells of bond
Iisues and the like to care for the deficit and
suggests' that some extraordinary measures may
be resorted to, but he haa no doubt the money
will be forthcoming. Thus the proposed expen
diture ot more than a hundred millions a month,
with an Income of less than half that amount,
la only a trifle to this democratic chancellor of
the exchequer. Even Robert Law, were be
alive, would surely admire the sang frold of Mr.
McAdoo, but It'a a cheerful outlook for the great
American taxpayer If the democrats have their
way.
Collapse of tho
Montessori Cult
aaaea Magaalne.
DR. MARIA MONTKfiSORI haa now ben on the
Pacific coaat for almort fla monthe. but - tha
Nmt that ran la aald of the vlalt la that It re
e'lltcd In mutual disappoint mrnt. It la reported that
tha eminent Italian pedaaogue, after aha had Inves
tigated tha altuatlon. eaclalmed that she had been
misled. Apparently aha waa astonlahed to find thai
tha kindergarten education of children between I and
i waa almost universal In America. And It must
have grieved both the dottoreaea and her managere
that tha offer of personal Instruction by the beat ad
vertised educator In tha world attracted lece than
one-half of tho maslrnum number of students that
ware to be aecepted.
Tha truth of tha whole matter la that Montessori
and her work ware overboomed In order to stimulate
tha sal of her "didactics material" at l0 a set. ome
of her warmest admire re now admit that she ha
been evarex plotted. It la hardly necrsaary to aay that
Dr. Montessori herself had no part In and probably
waa entirely Ignorant of tha publicity campaign
launched In tha United 6tatea to exploit her system
commercially.
In one of tha beat California kindergartens and
kindergarten training schools a dozen small children
ranging In age from Vj to I years had the choice
between tha Montessori and tha usual kindergarten
material. t After the first two day they positively
declined to handle tha Montessori material. Tho
apparatus designed to educate the enses of back
ward, feeble-minded children bored these normal
youngster after they had mastered Its uae In an
hour. And In almost every American Montessori
achool moat of tha material la either not used at all
or ale employed la a manner atrictly forbidden by
tha book.
Tho Monteiaoii method la deelaned primarily to
educate tha senses and through thla sense education
bring out tha personality of the Individual child. Un
fortunately the ago or personality of the avcraae
American child la overdeveloped. Its Individuality
does not need additional stimulation; rather It needs
to be guided Into the Interwoven paths of social ac
tivity and social discipline. The gradual recognition
of this fact marks tha end of tha Montessori cull
without, however, diminishing the usefulness of many
parts of tha system, particularly a It applies to the
training of defective. Still If tha Montessori boom
had accomplished nothing except to demonstrate tho
widespread. Intense Interest In educational affair on
tha part of the American parents. It would have beep
worth tha money.
Mr, Bryan and Hii Party.
On the eve ot a presidential cam
pa.'gn year, the democratic party flnda its
future largely ahadowed by William Jen
rings Bryan's personal j power. The "Great
Commoner" still looms large as a . domi
nating factor tn the affaire of hla party. Nation
ally, the president and his adherents may not
endorse the Bryan ideals, nor fall tn with the
Pryan plans, but they hesitate to Incur his op
position, and will undertake to placate him at
ary reasonable cost la Nebraska, he still holds
his party organisation la his hand, hla Influence
being almost decisive oa any question of party
policy or expediency. Our democratic senator
fully realises this, and. however galling, he la
forced to submit with whatever grace he may to
the Bryan demands. Mr. Bryan's unique posi
tion gives him power he know how to wield,
and the demoerailo party will make no move
without reckoning on him.
The reading world has been surfeited with
stories of atrocities in Belgium and Turkey, In
Russia and Poland. What haa gone before will
be quickly overshadowed when the Balkan
sir tea break Into the killing business. The
ralkana have been the home of atrocities ever
since the Macedonian cry broke into the records
of the near east '
Note that "Billy" Sunday's meeting for State
university students at Lincoln waa held In
a church, and not in one of the university as
sembly halls. In this respect the university is
in exactly the same position as our public
schools. The constitution of Nebraska ex
pressly bars the propagation ot denominational
religion as any part of the public school system.
Our city commissioners promise to push the
work so the road to the cemetery will be In
passable condition again before the winter sets
in. Still, that Is the last road most of us want
to be booked to travel.
Twice Told Tales
Always Too Sides.
It used to be said of tha lata United State Senator
Allison of Iowa that tn conversation he wa tha moat
conservative man la tha United 3tatea. To get him
to aay plain "Ye" er plain "No" to any proposition
until he had gone thoroughly into tha matter, waa
next to Impossible. If ha wasn't aura, ha qualified the
statement Dvcn If ha waa aura, he waa likely to
qualify It In order to be aafe.
Once so tha tala runs he waa making a campaign
ing tour through tha atata of Nebraska. The train
upon which tie rode, with a party of other prominent
republicans, passed a great pasture where thousands
upon thoueands of sheep, so newly and so neatly
sheared that tha pink hldea ahowed through tho
cropped wool end, ware nibbling at tha herbage, all
with their head pointed In the same general direction.
One of tha group turned to two of hla companlona.
"I've got Allison now." ha confided. "I'm going
t make him commit himself for once. Listen I"
Ha dropped back two eeaU to where tha senator
from Iowa aat. and slipped Into the vacant place
alongside him. o '
"Senator," ha began, with a flirt of hla thumb to
ward tha browsing flock, that's quite a lot of sheep
out yonder In that pasture, eh?"
Allison atared through tha window aa though ap
proximately to compute tha number.
"Ahem." ha said: "there do seem to be a consider
able number of aheap there."
"Did you ever aea mora aheep than that at one
time In your whole lifer praaaed tha conspirator.
1 may have," responded Senator Allison after due
reflection, "and then again I may not."
"Well," said tha other desperately, "you're willing
anyhow to admit that they'va been pretty cloielj
sheared, aren't youT" -eiy
Tha senator took another look before answerlno
"Well." ha admitted, "they .pp.a7 hlv. been
aheared-on thla elda,"-eturdy SnXt
A Fable.
The lion waa telling tha leopard why ha roared In
tha Jungle when going about hunting. "Doing busi
ness openly and with plenty of advertising," the lion
aald, "la what haa made my reputation. I got my
characterisation aa king of the beasts by blowing my
born. Always let tha other fellows know you are
around and they will respect you and fear you."
A rabbit hiding and shivering In a clump of pampas
grass overheard this conversation, and all tha next day
ha pondered upon 1L Ha decided It waa better to have
tha other animals fear him than te live himself in
constant terror. So the rabbit filled hla lungs with a
great breath and tried to roar Ilk a lion.
A coyote, learning of tha rabblt'a whereabouts by
hla roar, hopped onto the rabbit and' ate him up.
If you haven't got the goods, there la no use to
advertise. ,
Old Rafe astli,

turned etate'a evidence and whose testimony went to
prove that Choate'a client had Instigated the theft.
"Wall," asked Choate, "what did ha aayT Tell ua
how and what ha spoke to you."
"Why." aald tha witness, "he told ua there waa a
man In Beaton named Choata and he'd get ua out If
they caught ua with tha money In our boots."

OMAHA, Oct .-To tha Editor of Tha
Bee: Permit me to congratulate Tha
Bee upon the stand you have taken
attainst the street fate and carnival. For
year I have lifted up my voice against
thla cheap form of amusement. 1 have
always felt that It waa undignified and
heilttting for a city like Omaha to allow
auch a form of amusement on it atreet.
Many of tha amaller town and citl have
ruled them out Thla I not saying any
thing about tha Immoral and vlcloua In
fluence of suh an amusement
What will take It place a an attrac
tion to draw people from outside the city
and to raise money necessary T
I have no doubt that now that the city
owna tha Auditorium, that a aeries of
popular concerte and lectures and enter
tainments of various aorta, given by sinn
ers, speaker and entertainer of national
repute, would draw fully aa well and
would be uplifting and helpful. A fee no
larger than Is paid to enter tha carnival
ground would pay the expenses and
mora. There are a number of men like
myself who could be persuaded to put up
our $10, or even more, that In the past
have not been doing so because wa did
not wlh to be considered patron of uch
a disgusting affair aa the carnival haa

Who' Hand Dig She Shakef
NORTH PLATTE, Neb., Oct 16,-To
the Editor of The Bee: I read in Tha
Bee of Mr. Sunday's sermon about tha
lady who worked so hard to win the $30
cut glass prixe and aa ahe was beaten by
only two points ahe wa so disappointed
that ahe , went to bed and waa 111 for
two daya. Then her son went to the
gambling house and won the money and
gave It to hla mother and told her to
buy the cut glasa dish, etc
When Mr. Sunday came to that town
this lady attended the aervlce and, tak
ing her stand for Christ, told Mr. Sun
day aha would never play carda again.
Now I may be more fortunate than
thoae who listened to Mr. Sunday Tues
day afternoon, because 1 heard two re
vivals. Three or four months ago w
had a revival In North Platte, conducted
by Lowry and Moody, and Mr. Lowry
told ua about the same lady that Mr.
Sunday had the experience with, men
tioned above, but Mr. avowry aald that
aha shook his hand and promised him
never to play carda again.
So I thought maybe you would be able
to satisfy my curiosity aa to whose hand
the lady really did shake, for It doea
not eeem probably to me that they
could toothj have had so identical an ex
perience. W. O. FLEISHMAN.

OMAHA, Oct 15. To the Editor of Tha
Bee: Referring to a special from Lincoln
appearing In your columns a short time
ago, to the effect that tha plumber' and
steam fitter' union ef Lincoln had
adopted a resolution protesting against
the action of the recent convention of
tha Nebraska State Federation of Labor
In opposition to prohibition. I beg to
call attention to a reply made hy Samuel
Qompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor to Congressman
Hobson, which reply read as follow and
axplalna Itself:
WASHINGTON. D. C. Sept 3. 1911.
My Dear Mr. Hobson: Your favor of
August Zlat reached my office during my
ahuenre on official business, and this Is
the first opportunity I have had to reply
thereto. I beg to assure you that I ap
preciate the honor of your selecting me
as a member ef the National Constitu
tional Prohibition committee on co-operation,
but I must ask you to excuse me
from accepting or serving upon the com
mittee. I am frank enough to aay to you
that I am out of harmony with tho
prohibition movement by constitutions!
provision or statute enactment. I know
of a better way other than by lngallsei
f'rohlbltlon to secure temperance and
empnrate habits, not only tn tho liquor
traffic, but In any of the personal
activities of men.
There is no movement In all the country
so potent to muke the people temperate at
Is the much misunderstood and mis
represented organised labor movement of
the country. Increasing waxes, estab
lishing a shorter work-dav, affording the
opportunities for the cultivation of ct
ter tastea, better aspirations, hlpher
Ideals, which the better standard of liv
ing and freedom of burdensome. Ion
hours of toil will bring, the opportunity
for better iiomes and surroundlnss and
better worKing conditions, all of these I
repeat hsve been more potent and will
prove to be more potent In establishing
temperance and temperate ha:tta than
anv attempt to reeutate the nersonal
habits or to Inaugurate prohibition by
Saw.
As you Will observe. I am not In har
mony with the purpose of your move
ment, and hence cannot consistently ac
cept an appointment upon the commit
tee. I, therefore, attain respectfully re
quest you to remove my name from the
national constitutional committee on co
operation. SAMUEL OOMPKKS,
"President American Federation of

Of comparative nutritive values. Dr.
Hutchison, the famous dietitian, says
that meat contains practically 75
vrater, macaroni only 10. In other
words, when you pay J1.00 for meat,
you pay 75c of that 451.00 for water.
And it's so easy to digest and so easy
to prepare Faust Macaroni. Besides
serving it as the whole meal, you
should serve it often as a side dish.
