A meeting of the Chamber of Commerce special committee with a committee from the Grain exchange, held yester day afternoon, discussed the situation from all its an gles, but particularly from that of transportation. As c result this resolution was adopted: “Resolved. That the railroads be requested, through the Association of Railway Executives, and the presidents of individual western lines, to pub lish immediately, on short notice, with the consent of the Interstate Commerce commission, emergency all-rail rates on wheat and flour shipped frkm all points in the United States, ihcluding all grnln on hand in elevators or at storage points, to Atlantic. Gulf and Pacific ports for export, on the basis of 75 per cent of the rates now in effect: these emergency rates to expire January 30, 1924: that grain shipped on these emergency rutes be allowed only one inter mediate at transit or proportional rate-breaking point, except that one aditional stop may be made for milling purposes; and that storage in transit, milling or rate-breaking point, and also at elevator at seaport be limited to thirty days." The effect of this must be apparent to even the toast informed. It means a concession covering a period of six months during the busiest time of crop movement of 25 per cent on the wheat tariff. The concession is intended to stimulate the export move ment, and, as it is to be made nation wide and in cludes all tidewater ports, there is no charge of sec tionalism contained in its provisions. Any reduction in carrying charges should en courage buying, and even at the prevailing prices, will give the raiser great assistance, because the cut in freight rates should be immediately reflected in the price at the farm. Such a concession will aid the American farmer to meet the competition of both Canada and Ar gentine, because it will bring wheat grown in Ne braska, for example, that much nearer to the world market on terms more nearly equal. This is a factor of prime weight in the problem, for the exportable surplus of the wheat crop of the country means the difference, between profit and loss, and the American wheat farmer is at a distinct disadvantage in the matter of getting his crop to market. If the Omaha movement for an emergency wheat rate meets the same prompt endorsement that fol lowed the announcement of the “buy a thousand bushels,” or “say it with flour,” did, it will have sup port that should carry it through. There can be no doubt of the concern of the railroads in the condi tion of the farmers, especially those of the west, who are dependent entirely upon rail transportation for all they sell and all they buy. Anything that helps (he farmer will in'turn help the railroad, and this most practical suggestioVi should have the undivided hupport of all lines involved. Such a step would be accepted by the people as a proof that the railroads are willing to help in time of public emergency, and would be appreciated ac cordingly. .lust now the interests of all are in timately concerned in the farm situation, and co op* ration by all agencies is but a matter of patriotic duty. FRANCES WILLARDS WORK. Lots of people still living will recall how bands of devoted women knelt and prayed in saloons, asking that the hearts of the keepers be changed, and that the traffic in liquor be ended. These will also recall that many a cask of wine, many a barrel of lisky, many a keg of beer, was drained in tff r in response, and that some of the saloons out of business. That was the crusade of 50 ago. It did not win the day for prohibition, but it did mark another step toward the goal. Out of the crusade grew the Women’s Christian Temperance union, and with that body came Fran ce* Willard, who was its secretary from 1874 to 1879, and its president from that year to her death. Of her it is written that she did more for the cause of temperance than any one other person in all his tory. She would have rejoiced if she had been spared to note the remarkable bouquet just presented to Miss Anna A. Gordon, now president of the W. C. T. U. The women literally said it with flowers, 26,000 and more in a great mass, each flower repre senting a new member of the White Ribbon organ ization, sent in by the various states of the union, a significant notice of the progress made during the last year. Here is one mighty agency of reform. Its projects may not always seem practical, or even popular*, but there is no gainsaying the power of these women, when they exert their influence along any line de cided upon. In Miss W'illard’s time they had only the weapon of moral suasion to support them; now they have the ballot, and they know how to use it with good effect and discrimination. 'rtey may say it to Miss Gordon with flowers, but they will say it to the world with votes. ASYLUMS FOR THE INSANE. One good old stock story of the organizer is laid to rest, perhaps forever, by the incident at the Illinois asylum for criminal insane. For many years it has been the practice of the orator, at a certain point in his discourse/ to tell how one keeper can control many lunatics, because the latter can not or ganize. At the Illinois asylum they did organize. This argues that the old story is ail wrong, or mme of those alleged lunatics were not so crazy as they had made the jury think. One of the defenses most frequently resorted to in criminal cases is that of insagity. Many a murderer has escaped the pen alty that otherwise would have been inflicted upon him, because his lawyers were able to convince the jury that therfr client was insane when he committed the crime. Few scandals have been greater in con nection with such trials than the appearance of ex pert alienists, one of whom will nnawer yes and the other no to a hypothetical question, containing thou sands of words, the thread and details of which can only be followed by close attention and study, yet all dealing with a suppositious state of facts, sup posed to fit the case in hand. The moral to this, if it has any, is that asylums phould be kept for insane persons, und if criminals are sent there, it should only be after their sanity is thoroughly tested. Society should be made abso lutely secure against the lunatic who once has com mitted murder. ^ NOT A THREAT. BUT A PROMISE. One thing is clearly evident from the wording of the manifesto just sent out from Manila. Manuel Quezon and his associates certainly do not hope to influence action in America by such tactics, but they may be able to strengthen their position in the is lands. So far as independence for the Philippines is con cerned, that is a matter for time to determine. The government of the United States made the promise many years ago, but did not fix the date. The pre amble to the Jones act of 1916 recites that “it has always been the purpose of the people of the United States to withdraw their sovereignty over the Philip pine islands and to recognize their independence as soon as a stable government can be established therein.” Under this act the Filipinos have their own lawmaking and administrative machinery, subject to the executive authority of a governor general, ap pointed by the president of the United States. President Harding sent General Wood and W. Cameron Forbes, a former governor general, to in vestigate political and industrial conditions in the is lands. In their report they recommended, among other things, “that the present general status of the Philippine islands continue until the people have had time to absorb and thoroughly master the powers already in their hands.” That time, seemingly, has not yet arrived. Quezon and his followers are ac cused of ambitions that spring from personal interest rather than a patriotic desire to serve the whole of the people of the islands. Quezon is shrewd and resourceful, and his present attitude is one that will embarrass General Wood not a little, although it is not at all likely he will quit under pressure growing out of political maneuver ing. He recommended to the president "that under no circumstances should the American government permit to be established in the Philip pine islands a situation which would leave the United States in a position of responsibility without authority." These recommendations of the Forbes-Wood com mission have guided and probably will continue to guide the course of the Hording administration. Our government is not interested solely in the advanced class around Manila, but in the many thousands of tribesmen in Ihe remote parts of the archipelago, who are slowly being brought under the influences of civilization. The job we set out to do in the Philip pines is not fully accomplished. When the time has come, the United States will withdraw and give to the people there self-government, with all its bless ings and all its responsibilities. HE ONLY MADE US LAUGH. Long, long ago, when the grandfathers of today were little boys, and pictures on the barn doors and sides of the crossroads groceries were very real, a popular ditty announced: “Oh. Van Atnburgh is the man— He goes with all the shows. He stickK his head in the lion's mouth And tells you all he knows.” And that was the day of the clown. Each circus had one; some had no elephant, and every now and then one would show up with no animals at all, but all had a clowri. He was the life of the party, the center of all the activities that took place in the ring. He cracked his jokes and the ringmaster cracked his whip, and for weeks after the circus had pulled up its stakes and left, the funny clown was remembered. His songs and his jests lived long after his departure, just as "A Christmas gambol oft would cheer A poor man’s heart through half the year.” Such a clown was A1 Miaco, who 70 years ago joined with Yankee Robinson's circus, and for two generations followed the business. He was first a contortionist, then an acrobat, then a pantomimist, and always a clown. Miaeo’s career was not exclu sively confined to the “big tops,” for he made many a tour of the country with a “hall show,” taking part in the famous Hanlon and other similar produc tions. Probably he made more people laugh than any other man of his time. Now, Ai Miaco is dead. Millions who saw him in the ring or on the stage will pause an instant to think kindly of the man who gave his life to giving pleasure to the world. He did nothing great, per haps, but he did make us laugh, and the world needs laugh makers. * Harry Daugherty is going to San Francisco, to make a fight for the right of workingmen to or ganize labor unions, but this will not keep a lot of critics from firing at his injunction record.

Keep tlio Parks Inviolate. From the Wyoming State Tribune. ' Commercialism is the peril of our national park system. “rteguniless of all facts and figures, arguments, appeals and threats, any plan, however meritorious on its face, for the commercial exploitation of parks, must by the very nature of its aims and purposes be immediately doomed to failure. Good projects, bad projects, indifferent projects, all must face the same fate, for It Is at last the established policy of the government that our national parks must and shall forever be maintained in absolute, un impaired form, not only for the pres ent, but for all time to come, a policy which has the unqualified support of the fereat American now in the White House, whose sole ambition is to ad minister the government without fear or favor in behalf of the peace and prosperity, happiness and contentment of the entire people of tills country. “This is the fixed policy of the administration, and I can assure you it will not be modified. “Yellowstone history Is replete with crises where the friends of the park and the park Idea have had to tight with a heroism worthy of its explorers and discoverers to retain it Intact against the bold and presumptuous claims of the advocates of special privilege, determined to commercialize this land of wonder, to build railroads through it, tunnel its mountains, dam Its lakes and streams, and secure stranglehold monopolies with small compensation of the government and total loss to the people." The words are those of Dr. John Wesley Hill, personal representative of the president of the United States and the secretary of the Interior, and they were delivered at tne 1923 open ing of Yellowstone National park. Within the past few years Ameri cans have seized upon their national parks as a part of their conception or the greatness of America The plain people now feel toward their public playgrounds somewhat as they feel toward Old Glory—"Hands Off!" They passionately desire to defend them and to keep them inviolate. But powerful interests, undiscovered by legislative setbacks, still are seek ing to exploit the areas set aside for the whole people. Montana arid Idaho, for instance, are engaged In a never ending struggle to enter Yellowstone park and defile Its natural wilderness with all manner of power pants, reser voirs and irrigation ditches. Dr. Hilt's message, coming as It apparently does directy from Presi dent Hardiag, Is highly encouraging. But Wyoming, with the greatest of all playgrounds within its borders, must lememher that eternal vigilance Is the [rice of victory. Alcohol as a Crop. From the New York World. A question is raised by the Ameri can Agriculturist which may test the loyalty of the American farmer to those phases of the Volstead act which Involve in red tape the manu facture and use of alcohol for indus trial purposes. If alcohol w-ere aa freely made and dispensed as gaso line there would be difficulty In pre venting its occasional diversion for use as a beverage, yet in a year such as the present, with surplus grain in prospect, the temptation to manufac ture commercial alcohol Is strong. According to one farmer inter viewed by the Arlculturlst. the Vol stead act Is more easily to lie for given for interfering with the right to drink than for "compelling th# farming communities to allow to go to waste a large quantity of material which, collected and turned Into In dustrial alcohol, would prove a boon to the whole country " la the aver age farmer willing to lose his surplus rather than have any traffic- with the devil that lurks In firewater? Or would he gladly convert unsalable grain Into a commodity so readily marketable and so generally useful ns alcohol? If there are many years of grain surplus, and if gasoline gets too ex pensive, alcohol may yet haul trac tors. may yet take up the slack In the grain market, may yet be Im portant as a crop. Is If any more wicked to burn corn alcohol in a truck than to burn the corn itself |n a kitchen stove? Surplus Miner*. From ths Illinois Miner In the days when millions of men were looking for work, the brutal critics of the coal miners demanded that the surplus miners leave the mining Industry and seek employment elsewhere. This was merely asking them to go forth and starve. Now. however, the situation Is i hanged. There Is employment to be had In other Industries. The miners ought to take advantage of the situa tion and thin out their ranks to the number required to operate the mines.

If QUIVEV, I (Seal) Notary Public -r-1 Getting away from the main road a lit tle, yet keeping within hailing distance of Omaha, w« find In Th# Omaha Bee of July 24, 187fl, the following story, copied from the Cheyenne Lead# Colonel Car rington was well known in Omaha and Sergeant Gibbon*, one of the city's veter ans. served under him at Fort Kearney, and was in the famous “wagon box" fight after the Fetterman massacre. "HOW OLD FORT KEARNEY WAS LOCATED." "Old Fort Phil Kearney was situat ed in a most exposed and defenseless place, commanded by bluffs on every side. Indians could come within a couple of hundred yards of the stock ade without being observed. A dozen hetter sites could have beeij selected in the Immediate vicinity. The offi cers of the expedition explain the mat ter in this way: "Colonel Carrington commanded the ISth infantry. When he was sent out by the government to prospect for a site, his wife, a lady of some will, ac companied him. From old Fort Cas per, at Platte bridge, they wandered on. and on, northward, until they reached this point on the old Mon tana road. Carrington always carried a bugle, as he loved to sound the calls himself. One morning he arose from his bivouac as usual, and was going out of his tent, bugle In hand, when Mrs. Carrington said: " 'Henry, Henry, where are you go ing with that bugle?' “ 'Why, Margaret, my dear,’ he re plied, 'I am going to sound the call, so that our march may be resumed.’ " 'You may march a:! you please,’ •aid she. 'but not one foot further In this direction am I going This is as good a place for your fort as any you can find.’ "Henry laid down the bugle. The march was not resumed. Margaret had her way. and so Fort Phil Kear ney of gory memory came to be built "When Captain Drummond of the dragoons went to the rescue of Fetter rnan and got killed for his pains, Mrs. Drummond gave Carrington a terrible tongue-lashing, calling him a poltroon and many other names. The colonel hail her, Mrs. Carrington. Mrs. Orton apd two other ladies—ail that were in the fort—placed in the magazine, laid the train, and was ready to Mow them and the whole concern up In case the Indians forced the stockade, which they were quite capable of do ing, had they attempted the feat. It was a riiiracle that they did not. as Carrington had less than 90 men left. The colonel is now on the retired list. His wife, Margaret, died a few year* ago, and, strange to relate, the sec ond Mrs. Carrington Is none other than Mrs. Drummond, widow- of the dragoon officer, on whose account sh# insulted her present hushand so ‘-•—■My." cannot do this That 1*. It cannot compel any member to leave that trade and seek another trade It could encourage the process The in dividual miners could carry it out. The operators are to blame for the condition that exists. They insist upon operating about 4.000 unneces sary mines and keeping a full force of men on hand who work part time They do this so as to have the full force on hand in case there should come a time when full production would he required. As they pay the men only for part time, this costs the operators nothing except that they would have less expense If they con fined themselves to fewer mines. It Is highly uneconomical both from the operators and from a national point of view. It Increases the price of coal. The operators could cure this cop ditlon at any time by shutting down the unnecessary mines and letting the men go while it Is possible for them to get other Jobs The Fnlted Mine Workers have suggested this to the I'ntted States coal commission. The union has over 900.000 rpembers, who are employed part of the time It states that It would prefer to lose 200,000 of these and let the remainder have full time jobs.

Auburn, Neb.—To the Kdltor of The Omaha Bee: Do you all notice how nicely and gracefully the World-Herald backs up, when It gets Just so far? They do an awful lot of worrying about our present tariff putting the price of sugar up and the price of wheat down. They compare the prices of farm products at the close of the Wilson administration with present prices. We will admit that the prices of some farm products are lower now than then, but some are also higher now than then. The World-Herald shows a decided Inclination to steer clear of pointing with pride to the Cleveland, Wilson, Gorman free trade democratic admin istration. They steer shy of making any reference or comparison of prices of farm product* now and during the Cleveland democratic administration. Here is where they back up. Of course they do not want to attract the attention of our people to that financial panic and business depres sion administration. They call President Harding on the mat for speaking of what the present administration has done for the farmer and criticise him quite sharply for mentioning anything of the kind. The Harding administration has been Instrumental In preventing the farm ers from going through Just such strenuous hard times which they did during the Cleveland free trade ad ministration. Why. my dear W-H., a farmer can get more than twice as much now for a load of cobs as he could for a load of corn during the Cleveland. Wilson, Gorman free trade administration; eight times as much for a bushel of corn, three times as much for a bushel of wheat, five times as much for a ton of hay. four to ten times as much for a milk cow; now, as then, poultry, butter, eggs, all kinds of fruit and other farm products are many times the price now that they were during the Cleveland free trade administration. During the Cleveland free trade ad ministration the factories were all closed in the United States, mines all shut down, everybody out of employ ment. Coxey's army of a million Idle men marched to Washington. Free soup houses all over the country, to feed unemployed rhen and their famil ies. Thousands of men offering to work for their board then: now farmers are paying $45 to $60 per month for hired help and mechanics are getting from $R to $15 per day. During the Cleveland free trade ad ministration young women were tick eled to death to find a place where they could get 50 cents per week for housework. Today many girls ar get ting 50 cents per hour for the same kind of work. Today any one who wants work can get It. Today any man. woman or child can go to a pic ture show, theater, ball game or a prize fight. During the Cleveland free trade term they could go no place ex '■ept to free soup houses to head off starvation. Never in the history of this world was there a country on the globe which showed such marked con trast of had and good times as be tween the Cleveland free trade admin istration and the McKinley republican high tariff administration, and the wondrous change from bad to good times was due to the Dlngley protec tive tariff bill taking the place of the Wilson, Gorman free trade bill. The remarkable Improvement In conditions and the growth In commer cial prosperity was never equaled or anvwhere near approached In so brief a time In the history of any country In the world The increase In com merce of the United State* wrs never so great as during the high protective tariff adopted by the McKinley ad ministration There never was In the hlstorv of anv eountrv prosperity so great, so lasting, so far spreading as that which began during the McKin ley administration of high tariff President Harding has kept us out of "war”—no. that was President Wil son. who did that But President Harding by causing protective tariff to take tt>e place of the democratic free trade bill has kept the farmers and every one else from going through Just auch an ordeal of hard times and starvation as the peo ple did 3a years ago durirv the Cleve land free trade times N'netv per cent of the hard times that the United State* has ever seen since our first president was elected was when the democrats removed protective tariff and gave ns free trade Instead All these assertions are facts and /■ .

Expert salesmen will sell you tickets and answer all inquiries about freight stand out self-evident and undeniable. The Cleveland free trade depression is not the only free trade hard times this country has seen. Other times before that, when our people were ! given free trade, the only sound of a hammer heard In the land was that of the sherifT knocking off stock to the highest bidder. The stock was taken from farmers for taxes past due, which the farmer was unable to pay. The World-Herald people are becom ing frantic over the price the farmer has to take for his wheat, but they lose their bearings now and then and mention the high prices which the farmers are getting for corn, hay. cat tle, etc., but these people are doing their utmost to have the farmer un derstand that If the Fordney-McCum ber tariff could tie erased from the records so five bushels of wheat could be shipped Into the United States from other countries free, for each bushel now on hand, thus making six times as much wheat in the United States as there now is. it would bring the pries of wheat up. I do not think the Nebraska farmer could stand such prosperity. Why should the Fordney-McCumber tariff bill discriminate between wheat and other products? The facts are, the tariff bill has nothing to do with the present price of wheat except to prevent those millions of bushels of wheat from foreign countries coming Into the United States free, thus sav ing the farmers from having to take 23 cents per bushel for their wheat in stead of the price they are now get ting: in fact, the bill keeps all farm products from coming down to a level with the Wiison-Gorman free trade bill. At a recent meeting of bankers they assured the people that there was a very noticeable increase in bank deposits so far this year. I wonder who is putting this money in the banks? The prize fighters, I suppose. The farmers say, “Give credit where credit Is due," so we will have to hand It to the W. H., that with amazing regularity they become very much in terested in the farmers' welfare, for a while, before elections. The United States cannot compete with foreign countries In the produc tion of goods. Our people have to pay more for the raw material and a much higher wage to their help than do the foreign countries Without a protec tive tariff the American factories would have to close, thus putting mil lions of men and women out of em ployment and every one knows what that would mean. If a man was em ployed. drawing wages and had to pay for a pair of boots, would he not be a thousand times better off than though he was idle and could get a pair of boots for $1. but had to do without, because he had no money to buy them? Can t you people who are so op posed to protective tariff, wise up and get this free trade stuff out of your system?
