The Dawes commission was made up of hard lea tied men, and the advance summary of its report is in accordance with what might have been looked for. No miracle is wrought for Germany, no easy way out is promised. On the contrary, it is expected tiffit Germany will work* out her own salvation. Not entirely alone, for there Is promise in the plan that outside aid will be liberally and generously pro vided, but only to the extent that is absolutely t.ceded to give the ^Germans a fair start on their way back to national stability and prosperity. One of the regrettable conclusions reached by the commission is that by no means can the repatriation • •f German gold he enforced. In round numbers, i' ,600,000,000 in gold, owned by German citizens, is in hiding in other countries. This will return to Germany only when its owners have renewed their confidence in home affairs to the extent of being willing to deposit and invest their capital in home enterprises. w * m France will be asked to evacuate the Ruhr, turn ing back to their owners the mines and plants seised, and to the German people the control of the terri tory now occupied. How this will fit in with the French program may be judged from the presence of Poincare at the head of the ministry. He is un alterably opposed to such concession, unless France be given guaranties by other nations for Germany’s promptly meeting payments of reparations. The French election for deputies comes in May, and any such decision will very likely cut considerable figure in the result, if it be not indeed the chief issue at the polls. The stalemate reached in the reparations matter J is comparable with that'which existed before Amer i ica became an active participant in the war. France holds the Ruhr, but is paying for that all she re eeives in return. Germany can hot progress with the industrial heart of tha country held by her creditor. This situation must be broken up before any real headway is made toward a final settlement. Leaving the exact amount of debts to be de termined by France and Germany in conference, the commission has struck closely to its object, that of providing methods by which the industrial and com mercial life of the German nation can be preserved. Long bargaining may follow between the two na tions concerned before a definite conclusion is reached. The goal is not impossible. France, of course, will demand the utmost, while Germany will offer the least possible. Somewhere between the two the facts should be determined. The world ex pects that Germany will pay fully for the damage wrought in France, no matter how long it takes, so the point to be settled finally is how much must she pay. That may be settled in conference between the nations, and it may call for intervention on part of other nations, but it must be settled., « a * A new German gold bank, with a capital of $S0, 000,UUU. affords the means for stabilizing the cur rency of the country. One-fourth of the capital stock to be taken by the reichsbank. and three fourths by the public, leaves ample room for the conclusion that most of the gold will come from out side the realm. One-half of the directors are to be German, the other half to he one each from Amer ica, England, France, Italy, Holland, Belgium and Switzerland, will give the bank international control, and yet leave its affairs in the hands of the Germans. They and one other will constitute a majority of the board at any time. Forbidding the hank to support treasury issues will effectually stop the flood of fiat money, while the rentenmarks and similar issues will be replaced by gold bank issues. A loan of *80,000,000 in gold is also contemplated. Through these devices it is hoped to restore health to the in dustry and commerce of the nation. • • • In the end though, any success that may come from the efforts of the Dawes commission rest with the Germans themselves. Two things they have no right to expect. One is that the world will accept their view of reparations, the other is that the world will continue to support them in the course that has brought the country to what is virtual collapse. Politic* is left to Germany, but with the implied mes sage that something is looked for besides political agitation. Any form of government, adopted by the Germans themselves will be accepted by the world, but the whole time and energy of the people must he devoted to getting hack to solid material footing, and not to the carrying on of revolts, revolutions, or similar political maneuvers. Whether the report finally squares with the fore cast is not so very important. The provisions out lined can not be greatly modified in any report. How they will be received is another matter. In Ger many the spirit is sufficiently submissive at the mo ment to accept any reasonable solution. The ^tumbling block will be found in France, hut even there reason may come forth and show the way to peace once more. HOW DOES PREUS GET THAT WAY? Having felt some of the impress of the farmpr labor steam roller, Governor Preus is apprehensive of the third party. Only on such grounds ran one understand his telling the president that I.a Follette will carry all the northwestern states on a third party ticket. Governor Preus may feel authorized to speak for Minnesota, although some room for doubt on this point exists. He certainly does not fully understand the spirit of Nebraska. Nebraskans never have shown a disposition to go very far in the wake of a third party movement. In 1892. when populism was at its very highest point In this state, and .lamps It. Weaver was it prophet, a fair test was made of the sentiment of the people. .fame.« E. Boyd. on behalf nf the democratic national committee, advised democrats to vote for Weaver, for the reason tha! such a vote would be half a vote for Cleveland. The scheme proved a boomerang, for the voters turned to Harrison, and gave him tne Mate by more than .'IO.OOQ. Our people have always been "regular*," that Is they have wanted either republicans or democrats in office, and have voted accordingly. There is little reason to think they will discontinue this course now. Whilp Nebraska has swung back and forth, first with one, then the ofher, of the old parties, only on purely local issues has a third party been ahle to make any headway. Never has it jumped the track in national elections. Regardless of the assertions made by the third party supporters, nothing so far disclosed indicate* * trend toward such an organization in Nebraska. I nless all signs fail when November comes around the electoral vote of this state will be given to one or the other of the old party nominees. Such votes as are cast for the third party candidate, whoever he may be, will count merely as an expression of protest. DOLOROUS DEMOCRATS SING OLD SONG. A “green and yellow melancholy" seems to have settled on the democratic mind, hut-its exponents are not letting concealment hamper them. On the other hand, they are persistently peddling, with whatever enthusiasm they can muster, their old time nostrum. Free trade is what the nation needs. With the tariff wall broken down, so that the flood of foreign goods and wares of all description can enter the country without restraint, they will heal all our economic, social, industrial and political ills. They tell us the farmer needs access to the mar kets of the world, and point to the exports of 300, 000,000 bushels of wheat some years ago as proof of what may happen again. Lender similar circum stances, yes. When the farmers of the United States sent 300,000,000 bushels of wheat abroad, it was because the only available supply of wheat in the world was in this country. Other producers had been cut off by the war. Now that fields in other countries are turning out w'heat, the market for American-grown grain is cut down. Keep a world war going all the time, stop raising wheat in other regions, and the export demand will be increased here. Has any one forgotten the sacrifices made in this country, in order that Europeans might eat wheat while we ate substitutes? Suppose the tariff is taken off wheat, will the Canadians turn to Europe for a market, with the United States so close at hand? If our ports are open to the manufacturers of the world without restriction, how long can American factories keep open, unless they meet European conditions? Hav ing met them, what happens to the home market? fan u worker who is getting $7 to $1“ a week con ‘unic* as much as one who is getting that much a day? “When other comforts fail and helpers flee,” the democrat turns to free trade as naturally as water runs down hill. But farmers know that their salvation does not lie in the direction of pulling down other industries. The farmer’s status must be brought up, and the effort now being made by the president to bring it up is along right lines. FIRST AID IN THE SCHOOLS. Modern lifp may or may not be more strenuous than that of the past, hut it pays more attention to some things. Among them is the prevention of ac cidents. Casual readers might not think so, as they daily scan the list of those who are overtaken by mishaps of various kinds. Yet it is undoubtedly true that more accidents would happen were it not that people are well trained to be on the alert continually to avoid getting hurt or hurting others. Together with this goes the science of treating those who have suffered injury in any way. First aid is a real science, even for the most trivial of hurts. We are taught how to treat cuts, buhns, bruises, at least until the doctor comes. Then we ate told how to revive those who are apparently dead. Drowning, electric shock, asphyxiation, per I haps ate three forms of injury that are most fre i quently encountered and from the clutches of which victims may be called back to life if properly handled. The proposal to add a course of first aid to the Central High list of studies is a good one. It might be extended to other grades. No youngster ran know too much about such work. Knowledge of what to do in emergency is valuable to anyone, and if imparted early will stick with the individual through life. None may ever be called upon to use it, and yet any may be required to exercise such ability. The more of practical knowledge that can he instilled with the process of imparting the cultural, the better for all. First aid is well worth a place on any teaching program. While the army is curing the colds in the head of congress through poison gas, it might he in place to remind the world that the average member is immune to one certain kind of gas. tin the surface it would seem that Governor f’inchot had about enough to occupy his time in Pennsylvania. One of the late Edward Rosewater’s maxims was, "When the polls are closed is time to stop lying." The roorback crop has been uncommonly light this year. Well, pick your winners today. f --—-V Homespun Verse —By Omaha's Own Poet— Robert }( orthi-nglon Dnt ie THE OLD FASHIONED RADIO PROCRAM !.ast right the old time melodies I'amn drifting In n* mysteries, As fascination prevalent Jn the bewitching Instrument Within the humhle cot of mine I heard the time worn notes divine Divine because the sole of them Elucidate* the whole of them.

Last Mummer, the home life of ihe city was almost paralysed liv the breaking down of Ihe water system anil the newspapers then told tli^pen |ile that someone was to blame, and that such conditions should not occur again. Now h seems that cer tain newspapers, at least, are insisting upon Ihe retaining of lug business men upon the water board, on th» ground that everything has been well done. Mr. Raxter says that we ara all stockholders, and if we an- stock holders, why can t we vote for our directors and change them as we think best and why should some of the newspapers tell us Iasi summer that things were had and now they want the same men returned to the water board? I think that we ought to have men on the water hoard who will represent small home owners and who will not spend four months of the year out of Omaha. MRS. JOHN SIIIKLDS. Drake Court. A Republican'* Reaction*. Omaha.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: 1 send you a copy of a letter that 1 sent to Congressman William Francis Stevenson of the Fifth South Carolina district in reply to his demand that young Theodore Roosevelt resign as assistant secre tary of the navy under a republican administration. It 1? time we had some of the good old-fashioned republicans In congress and puss laws under the constitution cutting down representation in states where hundreds of people are not per mitted to vote, and in these states more white people than black are pre vented from voting. If the young men of the south, both white and blaek, were good enough to go to Europe to fight for Wilson's "democracy," they ought to be good enough to vote when they live in what Wilson railed a democ racy. But consistency is not with the democratic party. FRANK A AGNEW. Congressman William Francis Steven son. Washington. D. f\ Dear Kir. I suppose you will think it is very Impertinent for a, lawyer “away out west'* to a«k you a few political questions, especially as that lawyer is the son of a man. surgeon of the Sixth Illinois cavalry, who went with Sherman to the sea, a number of years ago. But I see you have been “jumping all over" young Theodore Roosevelt for not resigning from a near repub lican cabinet position. What differ ence does It make to you whether he resigns or not" it is no skin off your hack is It? I am not one of the crazy Roosevelt worshipers, for 1 think I'heodore Roosevelt, sr . was • > hiatus for the ele« tion of Wilson.

A. H ZIMMERMAN. \\ h> He Wants Sl»nn. Lexington, Neb—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: I find that the sentiments expressed in your editorial a few days since, rdathe to Mr. Norris, exists quite generally in this vicinity. In the 12 years that Mr. Norris has represented us in the sen ate he has been unable to do any constructive work on account of him being neither a republican nor a democrat and being unable to work with either party. If there was ever a time our state needed legislative help it is this state now ns to our agriculture and therefor power and Irrigation development. It looks to us that Mr. Sloan has proven his ability along the.se lines. In the house and should be the man Nebraska needs in the senate. J. M. N. Try It Out on Wheat. Albion, Neb.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: I have just read the in terview with N. B. 1'pdlke in The Omaha Bee as to the McNary-Haugen hill. 1 am very pleased to know that you are In favor of legislation of this kind and also that von feel that congress will do something along these lines during this session of congress. I would like to see this tried out on wheat alone, for l believe that hv putting wheat to the price It should lie It. will settle the whole question. We have the same 15 cent loaf of bread that we did during the war, and I believe that three-fourths of the peo ple of Albion buy bakers bread, so a good price for wheat would not ef fect the price of bread, and also put the price of wheat up and the govern ment will have a great many people paving income tax that are now try ing to figure out how they will pay their debts. 1 like The Omaha Bee. and it is doing a great work for the western people GEORGE \V. WILLIAMS. The Modernist Treat her*. Omaha—To the Kditor of The j Omaha Bee: While the reprobate, j confidence hetraying politicians over the land, high up In spheres of trust, have done much the last years tc test the faith of the masses in their government, the so-called ‘‘modernist preachers" have done far mote to blight the hopes, to deaden the faith, to foster unrestraint: and disrespect for human and divine authority as touching the masses, and their num bers are legion over the land. Most of us have neither the time nor the capacity to delve deeply Into i the scriptures arid their mysteries for spiritual food arid strength, and henre ' must go to - the churches for them, I where men are trained in the gospel and paid to preach It. Hungering for the bread of life, we go to a gTcat ihurch and its preacher tells ti* that Christ was not divine, of mlrac ulous birth, but wan juat a good man of flesh and b\pod For years we had found great happiness and solar* in worshiping him with th» Father, as divine We left that church aa myriads left their rhurrhrs al! over jth* land, wondering, doubting fear ling. Could this great learned preacher be right? Surely he would new thus defv the holy tempi* WT* go to another church and the preacher tells us that God did not create the earth In si* literal day*, and while that preacher keeps ha! lowed the seventh literal day a* the Sabbath, we will go away wondering If after all our God could not speak j a world Into existence? Out to an other great church we go, which for more than 200 years has been noted ' for its evangelism, for Its Implicit i faith In the Infallibility of the Bible, and lot its preacher, taking Job f*t his text, repudiate* satan g part In Jobs persecution, saving this was •imply Ailing in stuff stage acting, that satan took m> such park with God and Job. What will ce the eff*', t of this man gling of the scriptures un the young, who tomorrow will rule the political ur I spiritual life of this nation? Will thc-e preachers ever hark l>aok to the faith of the.r fathers to the In- j terrogitorie* and admonitions of the Savior who, before his crucifixion said In Peter. on whom he built his church. "Peter, do you love me? Feed my sheep But, Peter, do you love me' Feed mv laml**.” OFORGF R CHII.D. Lutheran* Not Modernist*. Omaha—To the Editor of The Oma ha Bee: For fear that many persons of the various Protestant faiths will accept the statement of Rev. Whit comb of Calvary Baptist church. I feel, as a Lutheran, that perhaps 1 should comment. He is reported to have said that the reason he had not been entangled in disputes With his congregational brothers, was that the different faiths were so closely ss sociated. This. I believe, is as broad as the Idea tha’ Protestantism Is backing tiie K. K. K. Both, I be lieve, are absolutely untrue. The Lutheran church stands for the Bible as the infallible word of God and a rule of faith and practice. We tako the Bible at its word and not at what we lielieve it means. In doctrine the 1 ,ut lie ran church as: closely associated the Baptist church as night and day. Rev. Whitcomb ran say what he pleases but ho needn't draw - t tie Lutheran church as: closely associated , With tb# Bftpttitt. I and J. No Oil in It.

Republican candidate for director of the Metropolitan Utilities District (Water Board) because he firmly stands for the operation of the water board in the interest of the small home owners and those who are building their homes. His dynamic energy, his wide experience in handling men, and his platform of ‘ Courtesy in the Gas and Water offices," are making a wide appeal to the rank and file. He has no political ambitions or poMcal tte-ups. He lives in Omaha twelve months every year. He is not rich. He is making his own way in the business world. He has the qualifications of experi ence and ability. He represents that great portion of stockholders of the Utilities District which consists of the rank and file of the people, Allan Tukev has the courage of his convictions, and he has pledged himself to fight for the interests of all the people. Five years ago, at the time of the worthouse riot, the whole city lwked to Allan Tukoy as leader of the big body of volunteers who established peaoe in a few hours, without even a suggestion of violence.
