"BLUE SKY" AND POLITICS. For the moment the mist of obscurity with which the d nio ratie party surround iU condemnation of the rod system lift. That advocate of democratic regularity, the Lincoln Star, in commentinK on Charles JI. Randall's pledge to do away with any unneres nary U(t ofllriala makes hold to suRCst two spu iflc code bureaus that it withci to we rliminatpd. It .: "Wh.'t la ii (uiiik Id do nln.ut atjrli iiNrlcaa ap (iniiilnKia on lh aula iiovrniiiinl aa the Imrraii of aoi'uilllra ami th tiiru of mar lit) a, lioih of whl. li mninialn I'U puyrolla anil aind lura iumi of moiiry?

Franker warning could not be jciven to the farm iri of N'tbranka that if the demorrata are iflven con trol of the atate the department of agriculture ia to be crippled or deatroyed. Uefore the eitabliahment of the civil adminiKtrative code there wag no atate agricultural department. It wax in rchponae to the degire of the farmer for gome authoritative source of market information, independent of the gtativti cal gervlec of the buyerg of their productg, that the bureau of market wag ettablighed. If the itnue were to be put up to them, the demand f or enlnrge ment of this atate function rather than ila abolition would be almoNt unanimoua. Nebraska, one of the leading agricultural gtate, could not afford to be without bureau of information on crop and prices such a all other farming states maintain. The question of what state ofTiccg should be abol ished is not one to be left to a prejudiced reply. The suggestion of the democratic organ that the bureau of securities also be dissolved is one that strikes at the pocketbook of all the people, city dwellers and farmers alike. Without this there would be little or no protection against blue sky promoters. ' The public remembers the flood of fake promotion schemes that took millions of dollars from Nebraska investors a few years ago. Their permits to sell stock had been obtained in the days before, the code. It was to prevent just such fraud that the bureau of se curities was established under the code department of trade and commerce. Not one of the blue sky cases brought to prosecution originated since the time this bureau took charge. The blue sky laws of Ne braska have not only been strengthened, but they have been more strictly enforced than when this matter was left to the desultory consideration of a clerk in the railway commission. Now at last it is apparent what the democratic parly would, in its blind prejudice against the busi nesslike methods of the code system, force on the people of Nebraska. The blunt admission of the Lin coln Star proves that only chaos would result from the abolishment of the code. The people would be left without protection, slipshod methods would be restored in the state capitol and the spoilsmen would revel In jamooree of irresponsibility. How much better Is the plan set forth by the re publican platform and amplified by Mr. Randall as the republican candidate for governor. Instead of advocating the junking of the whole framework of state government, he adopts the commonsense atti tude of seeking to find ways to make it less expensive and more responsive to the needs and desires of the people. If there are too many employes on the pay roll, he will weed them out. But he will do nothing to cripple the service a state should render to its citizens. the result is not s!a an indication of the cu. Hovr, Vr, Eve's theory is intrimiifitf, even if it sag not th effect of Mother Ee' pnmnt. MEANING Of LODGES VICTORY. When Henry Cabot Lodg- was renominated for enator by th Vetera of Mataarhusett, something mora than local iuue wea involved. Senator Lodge, as chairman of the senate committee on foreign rela tions, hsl incurred the utmoat degree of displeasure from the democrats, because he had tried so to amend the League of Nations covenant as to make it accept able to Americans. He did nt oppose the underly ing principle of the league, but at all times expressed himself as willing to support any workable plan tu do away with war. What he objected to was th sur render of the sovereign power of the United States over its own affair to the control of a superstate, such aa th League would create. Especially did he wish to retain the right of th people to decide through congress whether they should go to war with another nation, and not to give that decision into the hands of the League. President Wilson opposed the Lodge reservations, which were adopted by the senate, prevented ratifi cation .of the Tresty of Versailles and defeated the League of Nations so far as America fa concerned. His Influence was exerted in this recent campaign to defeat Lodge. The growing ability of the United States, outside the League, to help solve the problem of Kurope has now raised the doubt whether its independent position is not more Influential than could have been possible in the League, either with or without reser vations. If I-oiige needed further approval of his course, the voter of Massachusetts have provided it. Primary results In Michigan, Washington and ether stntes suggest the thought that the voters are willing to take further steps with the republicans in preference to allowing the democrats again to play with power. ONE OF THOSE INOPPORTUNE MOMENTS ; SUNSHINE, OR JUST MOONSHINE. Let ua for a moment turn from golf and tennis, baseball and pinochle, and give a little attention to something that ought to interest "W. J. B." as touch ing on and appertaining to his argument with Charles A. Darwin regarding th descent of man. Dr. F. ('. Kve of London, addreing a group of British biolo,' gists, announces that sunshine is the original source of life To gt thia straight, read what the doctor says ! "Py the ordinary trm energy e mn ca. . parity to do work etirh aa mata in a river or furl, fnoit or minahlne. 8unhlna la tha source of prac tically all mmy on earlh.

Hays, asking that he use his influence with moving picture producers to eliminate some of the "wild- nets" from western dramas and other screen plays will find an approving echo In many a heart. In fact, it is a request that may be met without doing any especial violence to either the art or the finance of the industry. For Mr. Hays, however, it may not be so easy. The film makers are like Ephraim was, joined to their Idols. All their appsratus for producing thrillers is set up and in full operation, and the output is going big, even if the populace is becoming a teeny-weeny bit weary of the "excitement" purveyed by witness ing a lot of things that never happen anywhere out side of movieland. One of the leading producers writes in his own magazine some brief but pointed remarks on the topic. He advises ambitious scenario makers to stick to probabilities in their work. Few men are abso lutely white, and even fewer all black, he says, but there are plenty of grays, and therefore, to strike the human note, characters must be drawn in gray. Yet this same producer offers as his latest triumphs a film in which the hero is removed in soul as well as in body by plastic surgery, A twisted nose is made into a Grecian beak, eyebrows are leveled, and an ugly face is altered until it is of classic beauty, and along with this comes such alteration of character as to change a criminal into one of the noblest of men. In the course of the play the hero escapes from a state prison by throwing a lassoo over a spike on top of the wall, springing from the wall to the top of a swiftly moving passenger train, and then catching a trailing rope dangling from a passing airplane, and so riding off to safety, guards firing at him all the while. This may include probabilities, but it will cause even the confirmed moving picture patron to wish that the manager had followed his own advice and used more grays in his drawing. If the Rotarians generally take up the proposal, the moving picture men may realize that out of Waukesha comes some thing besides spring water. l lit I Vf'l' Fjwrw3r i!

"Know thyself" is a philosophical injunction to which may well be added, "Know thy neighbor." A great deal of the pleasure of Ak-Sar-Ben arises out of the new acquaintanceship that it encourages be tween Omaha and its neighbors in Nebraska and Iowa. The recent comments of the out-state editors after their reception here goes to show that to become ac quainted with Omaha is to admire it. The same feel ing will be taken back home by the thousands who are on their way to attend the fall festival. It would be unfortunate indeed were all the visit ing to be one-sided. Omahans have much to enjoy and to learn fro-i traveling out into Nebraska, visit ing the bustling towns and the splendid farms. To understand the achievements and the needs of the agricultural sections is as necessary as to have the country familiar with the place and functions of the metropolis. A group of Omaha business men has Just returned from a visit to Lexington, Neb., where they familiar ized themselves with irrigation development in that western country. Among this party were the presi dent of one of the greatest railroads, the president of one of Omaha's largtst banks, a pioneer railroad leader and a representative of the Federal land bank That men of this caliber should drop their busy rou tine to go out and visit with their neighbors speaks volumes for the feeling of mutual interest between town and farm. The future holds a great advance In the use of Irrigation in Nebraska. That future is all the brighter because Omaha understands the needs and benefits of these project. Night mail flights across the continent come pretty near annihilating distance, even if they do not disturb time. Twenty-eight hours from New York to n Francisco is the schedule.

This editorial ;s written primarily for the blu bankers of the east who by their control of credit cause prices to rise and full. We believu that these men do not realize the acrious nma of another winter of low grain prices, not only to the farmers, but to all the people whose prosperity depends upon the farmers. Wheat, which is Hh cents a busliel on middle western farms nt the pres. ent time, Is lower than It hae been at any time during the last seven year", and is lower than the price which customarily prevailed during the prewar period from 1910 to 1914. Oats nt 25 cents a bushel on Iowa farms are arnnewliat higher than a year aifo, but still are only about two-thirds as hiRh as back In the prewar period. New corn evidently will brlntr around 85 cents a bushel on the farm, n price which is some, what better than the price which caused considerable burning of coi n lust fall, but a price which neverthe less Is scarcely three-fourth of tho prewar norma lto Hoks, which have proved the f irmer's salvation durinit the past year, are evidently goinx to drop nntl! they are around $8 a hundred in the early winter, at coun try shippini; points. At this price the man who buys corn at 85 cents a bushel from a neishbor Is able to make a verv Kood profit, but the man who raises both his corn and hoes receives slightly less than his prewar income, whereas his expenses are far above the prewar. The farmers of the middle west are now waking up to the fact that they are entering their third season of subnormal purchasing tower. Durlnif the past two years thpy have been wonderfully patient. They have continued to produce to the best of their ability, believing that surely the distressing sliuntion could not con tinue, for more than a year ur two. Roth coal men and railway shopmen struck at the first siiKitestlon of low ering; their wages to a point which was tlil above the prewar level In purchasing power. For two years tha farmers have remained on the Job and produced to tho limit, In spite of the fnct that their purchas ing power was thereby reduced until it was scarcely otie-hnlf the prewar i.ornml. Kor a year we have been preach ing thnt we were on the vencn of n Kijsini'sr revival, snd that In this nvlval the farmer would find hit hare of prosperity.

And Now Here's the C.rei k Illoc. Ir. ni ti" Kanicaa City Journal. The ijreek bloc in Spokane Is roused by the statement of a candi date for cimitreps that Demosthenes was .1 traitor. Il Is to be hoped question of this character will not become Issues on our elections, for their tendency to divide voters Into groups must be apparent 10 every student of history. Some 1111 Kiiarded allusion to Philip of M.i- c. edon nilRht now put the whole state of Washington in the doubtful column. While in principle we would be the lai-t to advocate puttinir restric tions on the freedom of speech of candidates, prudence would require that they avoid classical contro versies as much as possible. It louses feelins. The Greeks of Spokane probably don't know whether Demosthenes was a traitor or not; It msy not bo clear In their minds whether he was an Athenian or a Thebun, or what his political views were on the subject of (ireek nationality; but they have beard he was a (ireek and they don't like to hear him knocked. Our candidates should be careful. They may think it safer to discuss Ksarhaddon than tho tariff, hut they can never know how the As syrian bloc might lake an Illusion to that ruler. Ite went out and raked in Kirypt, and that involves tho view of tho Kgyptlan bloc, which may oniitrol a considerable vote. All these allusions are safest avoided. Tt might have been sup posed that the Issue, raised by Do mosthenes had been quieted by the passage of time, hut candidates never can be sure of those things. Tho Greek orator appears to have had a large following even though he lost out In his oiimpiiUfn, and (Ireek thought in Spokane Is still for him. It seems to think ho didn't get an honest count. Mavbe not, but candidates had better lay off of it. They bad bet ter let a little time go by and in tho 'iieantlme discuss something afo like the bonus or tho anti-H nchlng bills. Otherwise we are likely tu have our elections decided by Creek and I'erslan and ltabylonlan and Egyptian and fart ha Ken Ian and Komiin and Phoenician blocs and we all know what un un-American blng the bloc is.
