There stems to be plenty of apples

The profiteers evidently get their

There is still a lingering suspicion
that the war to make the world safe

-:o:-
Before the war there were 37,908
departmental clerks and other civil
employees of the government in
Washington. Now there are 100,110,
which shows that among other costs
the high cost of government is not
taking anybody's dust.

A piece of good news for the cloak,

nation's wealth. This 49 per cent
they are now losing must be going
to the retailers.

Robbers cleaned out a bank at IU

bank probably will get some new cal

up for business on the morning of the
next holiday.
It has been reported in New York
papers that the French are seriously
considering a tax on American tour
ists, which might possibly equal one
half of the total amount spent by the
tourist in Europe. "If this proves
true", writes one indignant reader to
the New York Tribune, "many of us
will stay at home." That might be
the result France hopes forNwith the
tax. And what then?
PES 'YEAR IN ADVANCE
31 ASTER OR SERVANT?
A. MN Steele of Ohiowa, Neb.
v.-rites the World Herald as follows
"The World-Herald has repeatedly
castigated W. J. Bryan for giving
bis support to Woodrow Wilson at
th Baltimore convention. Does the
World-Herald think that Mr. Brvan's
act In supporting Woodrow Wilson
caused the defeat of Champ Clark?
Will you please publish this letter
and your reply?"
The World-Herald has criticised
Mr. Bryan's conduct at the Baltimore
conTcntlon because he grossly and
flagrantly betrayed not only the dem-
crats of Nebraska, who had elected
him to represent them and given
him his instructions, but because he
violated the sound and vital Ameri
can principle that the people have a
right to instruct their representa
tives and to have those instructions
obeyed.
Mr. Bryan had helped make the
fight in Nebraska for the direct pri
mary election of delegates to nation
al conventions, and for a primary
preference vote for president that
should serve as instructions to the
delegates to elected.
Under that law he presented him
self as a candidate for delegate to
the Baltimore convention, pledging
himself faithfully to carry out the
instructions of the democratic voters
provided only they were not for Jud-
son Harmon of Ohio.
He was elected, under instruct icu
to vote for Champ Clark, and under
the theory of the law no less than
by his own promise that instruction
was binding upon him.
He violated it to defeat the nom
ination of Champ Clark and by rea
son of his violation of instructions
Champ Clark was defeated.
Mr. Bryan voted for Champ Clark
until the time came when it became
apparent that he was about to be
nominated, Laving commanded more
than a niajority of the votes of the
convention for several successive bal
lots. To prevent it Mr. Bryan at
tacked Champ Clark as "the Wall
street candidate", on the pretext that
the New York delegation had com?
to his support, and changed his vote
to Wilson, taking with him the votes
of such other Nebraska delegates as
he could persuade to follow him in
violating instructions.
The attack on Champ Clark's in
tegrity and democracy was malicious
ly and contemptibly false, just as
have been similar attacks that Mr.
Bryan has made on other honorable
democrats. Whatever sins and short
comings may be charged to Champ
Clark of Missouri, that of subservi
ency to Wall street or other special
interests is not one of them. He is
his own man, an honest and fearless
man, and whatever mistakes he
makes are his own mistakes and not
the result of some one pulling secret
strings on him. N
Mr. Bryan violated instructions at
Baltimore not primarily because he
preferred Wilson to Clark, but be
caues he was hoping and. planning,
by tearing down one candidate after
another, to bring about his own
nomination. His support of Wilson
was half-hearted and hesitating, as
indicated by his declaration that he
would decline to vote ror Wilson the
moment the big New York delega
tion should come to his support.
Then, as now, in the convention fight
and in the primary fight, there was
no candidate for the democratic nom
ination whom Mr. Bryan was willing
loyally and whole-heartedly to sup
port. And the'reaso was that he
was his own "dark horse."
Mr. Bryan not only broke faith
with the democrats of Nebraska at
Baltimore, but he "played horse
with them in the primary campaign.
He refused to take them into his
confidence as to his ambitions and
purposes. He stabbed the primary
law In the back. He established a
precedent for other acts of betrayal
of public trust. He is now asking
that the democrats of Nebraska put
the seal of approval on his doctrine
that when he goes to a national con
vention by their suffrage he does so
not as their servant but as their mas
ter and that they can give him no
instructions he is obliged to respect.

Those new Chicago prices of $200
and$250 forappendicitis operations
are not likely to come down, either,
as long as production is so low and
the demand is so abdominal.
The rather promiscuous use of fire
arms in Germany seems to indicate
that the provision oKthe armistice
requiring that guns be checked at
the door was not fully complied with.
-:o:
How can a reputable scientific
weekly assert that lightning rods
have gone out of use, just when those
of the multitude of presidential can
didates sire giving the country the ap
pearance or one Tig asparagus bed?
