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.

AMERICA ANNEXES AN ARTIST.
Soma artists are born in America, and some are
adopted. John McCormack waa one of a long line
of musiciana to acknowledge hi debt to the United
State by taking out citizenship papers. The latest
h Mischa Elman, the noted violinist, who has just
become full-fledged citizen by taking out his final
.naturalization papers in New York.
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

SPORT AS AN EDUCATOR.
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.

Much has been said and written about
Nebraska's new state capitol, ex

of approbation and criticism, three
facta stand out. The building in to

and it is to be sufficiently large to

Illinois Central System Urges Co-operation
in the Movement of Coal
The Illinois Central System is facing the problem of providing coal cars for
transporting fall and winter bituminous coal supplies from the mines to its patrons
Ordinarily this task is performed partly during the summer, before the heavy traffic
occasioned by the movement of the crops begins. 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. '
