AMONG THE FOLKS IN HISTORY One of the AVu lhol( The other aide of the picture wa unintentionally revealed by Senator Walnh of Maachuitti in hia addrens in Omaha Saturday. The dutie singled out for condemnation by thin vlaitor from the manufac turing region of New Kngland were thoe protect inir the farmer!) of the went. It wu the tariff on augar, fruit and wool that ho mentioned apecifically, He hat before thin heen quoted a laying that the duty on wheut would add $100,000,000 to the na tion'a bread bill. It look a if there i some contradiction in Sena tor Walh'a theory. First he tell the farmer that a tariff will not give them better price for their product. Then in the very next breath, he tell consumer that the tariff i going to raiae the price of wool, augar, wheat, lemon, raisin, almond, figs, date, and goodnes know what else, clean out of The pla'in fact i that the present tariff is the only one in which the agricultural industry of the west ha received the same consideration a the eastern mill districts. And if protection had heen ac corded only the manufacturera of New England the chancel are that he would not now be heard com plaining. Senator Walsh' tariff apcech .needs to be rewritten before it i used in Nebraska. It is alleged by democratic politician that the duty on wheat has not been of any benefit to the fanner. The fact explode thia allegation. What we want to call attention to i the item of wheat, which is another of Hitchcock's pet topics. The democratic argument all turns on the relation be tween American and Canadian prices. Let' see: On February 1, 1921, the closing price on May wheat in Chicago was $1.43 1-44; at Winnipeg that day May wheat closed at $1.65, or practically 22 cents over the American figure. , On May 27, 1921, the emerg ency tariff act, levying a duty of 35 cents per bushel on wheat went into effect, and on February 1, 1922, May wheat closed in Chicago at $1.19 1.19 V4 , and in Winnipeg at $1.16, a net change in favor of the American farmer of 25 cents per bushel. If the Ameri can wheat had gone down proportionately to the fall ing off in the Canadian price, the quotation would have been $1.13 only, a fact of sufficient interest to justify a little defense of the benefit of the protective tariff. But, the present situation is even more interesting. On September 27, 1922, December wheat closed in Chicago at. $1.05, while in Winnipeg the closing quotation was 94 cents. If the decline at Chicago had followed that at Winnipeg, the quotation for De cember wheat on the American market on September 27, 1922, would have been 82 cents a bushel. Democrats may work up a feverish state of sym pathy for the Canadian wheat raisers, but the republi cans are chiefly interested in Nebraska' agriculture, and here the price of wheat is at least 23 cent a bushel higher than it would be, were it not for the protective tariff. PROMOTION OF AMERICAN IDEALS. A special committee reported to the convention of the American Bar association at San Francisco, uggeting plan for counteracting the ipread of rad icaliam in the United State. One difficulty, the com mittee reported, is: "Mnny of our people are convinced tluit the fnnntltutlon wi Intended a an aid to the rleh find powerful . . , They ilo not know that no man In ho poor or no oleure that he can not. In the hour of threatened injury, turn to tht Constitution n hi proteetimi agalnitt the wrongful acta of the rich and aorlnlly prominent." , Some discunsion of the prejudice against courts follows this, and the committee says: "Confidence in the courta muat b revived. Faith In the Justice of America muat he reatnred," To accomplish this end the committee recom mend that more stress be laid on teaching patriot ism in schools, and the organized group be inter ested in arousing a sentiment more favorable to the courts. Also: "Impreaalng upon meiuhera of the bar tluit they are called to duty aa leader in educatlonul and patriotic effort and making them realize that they are aworn to uphold and oVfend the Constitution and the lawa of our country." In this latter recommendation dwell the greater hope for the effectiveness' of any reform sought in the. existing situation. If the men of the law set about in earnest, they can restore public faith in the courts, and induce men to rely on the Constitu tion for protection. But so long aa crime goes un punished, perpetrators of fraud are permitted to enjoy the fruit of their swindling, and the poor man finds justice out of his reach because of the cost of carrying on litigation, so long will the bar association likely hear reports from committees similar to that made at Snn Francisco. Justice should be made more certain, less costly, and speedier in the United States. limner Mar, If.

In 190S, at the aita of 17 he came from Russia, with a European reputation already established. A few year later he brought hi parent and three iter. Here he hat added to hia fame; the degree of appreciation that he hat met can be gauged by hit net earning of from 175.000 to 100,000 a year. Not always I gratitude returned for the support given musical s;eniu from abroad. America likes to hear that such men a Mischa Elman find themselvea at home here. FRUITS OF A REPUBLICAN POLICY.

The chancellor of an eastern university advises all students to take part in some form of college sport. His reason is that the training and discipline gained from participation in organized sport of any sort will be of service in the major effort of acquir ing knowledge in the class or lecture room. Discip line and training, team work and the submerging of the individual for the good of the whole are lessons that each student needs to learn. A broadening of vision, a clearer outlook, a greater faculty for seeing the other fellow's side, with the consequent breaking down of the walls of selfishness that shut off the true picture of life, must come from the active practice of any of the games now prevalent at the big schools. It is not essential that one make the team, or become adept in the pursuit of a particular sport, but it is required that the matter be pursued sufficiently to develop the spirit of true sportsmanship, for that is opposed to the self-centered attitude sought to be overcome. When this done, the student will take up his scholas tic work with better zest, and, by reason of his com munication with other students on campus or field, or in the gymnasium, he will get more out of his college life than if he remains a recluse and a grind. Principally, the course, if followed, will have the effect of keeping the youngsters in touch with one another in a way that will help each to know the other and to compare himself with others as to what he can do. And that is of sufficient importance to justify the plan. Philadelphia is all upset by the discovery that guides in Independence hall have been charging vis itors for a peep at the Liberty bell and the room where the Declaration of Independence was tigned.

Omaha To the Editor of The Pee: Much has been said and written about Nebraska's new state capitol, ex cavations for which are now practic ally completed. And from the storm of approbation and criticism, three facta stand out. The building in to be unique, different a new idea in architecture. It is to be beautiful, and it is to be sufficiently large to accommodate the now overcrowded departments of the state government. Nebraskan will be proud of their new capitol, even those who today speak of It with skepticism. It la something new and that should be its strongest recommendation. It sheruld mean something to be the pioneer. To build a house that la distinctive and npart from any other house of Its kind should be a prlde ful thing. Particularly so, If that structure Is to be the home of the government of a mighty state, because the capitol building Is, In a sense, representative of tho state. It stands for the people over whose destinies the officials housed therein preside, They point to p,fL-J ,A h Nroief wr:Li-f ISgh h i 'J t i thC ; ft fe VV it with pride. Hmhtsetrt visit It. It Is the hub of tlm commonwealth. It should I Well built. iM-iiutlful, rep resviitative. And because the new j capitol Will l ail of .fce things, Nebraska will never have cause to be any thing but proud of it. Mot the building Itself can have no Influence on thn happiness and pros perity of tht people of thl state. It Is the men who will t elected to office, and who will use that building aa their headquarters, who will hava It tn their power to add lo tha build ing the ono thing It never will have without them tha dignity of noble tradition. Their actions, their unselfish, loyal, patriotic efforts, not from selfish mo tives, but In tho interest of and for the betterment of the people of Ne braska, who will elect them, and who will have confidence (n them. Will go Inunessuriibly further In tha direc tion of giving tha new structure a place In the hearts of their fellow citizens than all the planning and studying and painstaking labor of architect and artisans. The builder can make beauty, but the earnest aelf abnegation of good men la the only thing that can create sentiment and affection.

And because of these things, may the people of the great grain empire of Nebraska choose, well and wisely the men who will represent them In the legislative chambers and execu tive rooms of their new capitol build ing. May the men ao chosen acovpt the responsible taska to which they will be elevated with humility ami understanding. May they bend thep energlee toward the common good with uncompromising determination, that the now unborn generations of the great Cornhusker atate may potiv with pride and love to the building which their forbeara caused to he. built.

Owing to the miners' strike in the bituminous coal fields, which continued for nearly five months, from April 1 to August 22, the heavy movement of coal and the movement of the crops come at the same time this fall. During the miners' strike the side tracks of the railroads were crowded with many thousands of idle coal cars. Reserve supplies of coal were exhausted, and all coal bins are now practically empty. Every informed person will appreciate that no railway system could keep itself adequately equipped to meet such a situation as this. However, the Illinois Central System organization is proceeding to the task of mov ing as many tons of coal from the mines to dealers, consumers and industries as it is humanly possible to move with its facilities. By the prompt loading and unloading of cars and by direct billing of cars to avoid delays occasioned by reconsignment coal mine operators, coal dealers and coal consumers can aid materially in accelerating the coal movement. With the people demanding coal to keep them warm and prevent suffering f his winter and with in dustries demanding coal to keep up production, thus avoiding unemployment, every person should constitute himself or herself a committee of one to see that no coal car is delayed for even one unnecessary hour. We appeal to coal mine operators, coal dealers and coal consumers to co-operate with this company in preventing unnecessary delay in the loading and unloading of coal cars. We believe thnt the prompt movement of coal cars has never been no necessary as it is at this time. We also believe that, if we receive 100 per cent co-operation from coal mine operators, coal dealers and foal consumers in the prompt loading und unloading of coal cars, no one dependent upon the Illinois Cen tral System for transportation will suffer from cold this winter. About 7.J per cent of the hituminou n coal loaded on the Illinois Central System rails is unloaded at destinations on other lines, Therefore, one of our problems is to get cars unloadetl promptly on our connecting lines and rt turned to in for quick delivery tn the mines. In this we need an I ask the greatest co-operation even of those whom we do not directly serve. Tht Illinois Central System owns 30,ilt7 open top can suitable for nal loading To thia number nhnuld be added 5,000 new coal cars which we have recently pur chased. Two thousand of these cars are now being delhered, and delivery of the remaining n.ono has been promised in November in time to take nut in the heavy coal traffic thia fall.
