WHAT DO YOU MEAN, “CHAOS”?
“Oh, that mine adversary had written a book,"
exclaimed the sorely smitten patriarch, in the midst
of hot contention. Had he lived today he might have
made it “platform” instead of “book,” and have re
joiced.
Stimulated and uplifted by the ringing, resonant
keynote emitted by "Pat” Harrison and the stern
and corroding sarcasm of Chairman Walsh, the
democratic platform writers approached their task
hi a state of mental exaltation. How good they
felt:
; “Long boastful that It was the only party 'flt to
• govern,'" they said, “the republican party has
f proved Its inability to govern even itself. . ^ .
„ This nation can not afford to entrust its welfare to
; a political organization that can not master Itself.
.... A vote for Coolldge Is a vote for chaos!''
* • v
What a luminous, edifying example of self-gov
ernment the democratic party now presents. Ten
t^ys after that boasted plank was adopted, we find
tjje weary delegates, embittered, divided, led or
driven from candidate to candidate, unable to agree
oft any choice for nominee. After two weeks of
Unremitting effort, bickering, quarreling and threat
ening, even democratic newspapers begin to shed
tears, and see but little hope. One of the most
ardent newspaper supporters sighs for a “boss.” A
“boss,” it recites, might—
, “have made the convention function more efficiently
and more satisfactorily to the rank and file of the
• party than a thousand free and Independent indi
vidualists have been able to do for themselves.”
The trouble with the democratic convention is
not a lack of bosses—they are plagued with them.
Surely no one will deny that Tammany is a boss—
nor “Peg-Leg” George Brennan—nor Tom Taggart,
whose “privileges” at French Lick Springs require
tbe winking of the law. And who would deny the
tftie “boss” to Hearst, who kicked out the League
of Nations and turned the back of the democratic
pjirty upon its own patron saint, Woodrow Wilson.
* • *
' • '
• Dan Stephens of Fremont, chairman of the Ne
braska delegation at the convention, has it right.
He sees the issue. He may differ from those whe
still discern the rosy tints of dawn hovering over
Madison Square Garden, but he knows. He is there
in the middle of it. He is a blunt man, Dan Steph
ens, and he’ believes in telling the truth. And here
is the way he tells it:
“The question at issue before this convention
iis whether the ‘bosses' or the people's delegates are
to name the candidate.
"Up »e the present time the bosses have suc
re 'ded in throwing enough sops to the f vorite sons
'rom various states to divide the vote of the people
so that the people are unable to make a nomination.
“On one side McAdoo and the favorite sons are
dividing the vote of the people. On the other side
are the bosses, reactionaries and bootleggers, back
ing A1 Smith and the other wet candidates repre
senting eastern states which seldom if ever go
democratic. (
• “George Brennan, the Illinoi* boss, throws a few
! votes to our favorite son, th' ^ ivernor, to the gov
ernor of Kansas, a senator f m Arkansas and to
- candidates from other states, as a sop to keep them
'in the field.
“These candidates in no way represent him or
are in sympathy with his views, yet with this sup
he is able to hold these favorite sons In the field
and thereby defeat the nomination of McAdoo, who
has received votes from 43 states and has solid
■ delegations from some 23 states.
“These states that are voting for McAdoo con
trol 257 votes In the electoral college and yet the
bosses have been able, through the Influence of the
favorite sons, up to the present time, to defeat the
nomination of the popular candidate.
J “McAdoo has a clear majority In the conven
, tlon, If the votes could be got to him, and he Is en
. titled to the nomination. But unless t^ie people at
home take a hand and see that they are no longer
; misrepresented by their delegates, they are likely
, to get A1 Smith as their nominee or somebody
, equally disappointing."
• • •
No equivocation about Dan Stephens. “Brother
Gharlie,” too, it seems, has been a tool of the bosses
-^-hanging on to his paltry votes in the hope that
Ijtehtning might strike him.
I The answer at Madison Square is to be
found in the clash of petty personal ambitions.
Gharlie Bryan is one of the answers and Nebraska
owes a debt of gratitude to Dan Stephens for hav
ing pointed it out.
Verily, "this nation can not afford to trust its
welfare to a political organization that can not mas
ter itself.” The democratic party is that organiza
tion it so accurately describes and rightfully con
demns.
' Look at the record made at New York, view the
proceedings day by day, and then ask the platform
builders, “What do you mean, ‘chaoB’?”
SPEAKING OF NEBRASKA.
; Nebraskans are to be pardoned if now and then
tjiey pause in their delightful task of building a
greater and a better state to boast of what Ne
braska has. But there are some things worth boast
ing about that Nebraska has not.
For instance, Nebraska is one of two states that
does not owe a dollar of state bonded indebtedness
Wisconsin being the other one.
That is really something to boast about, isn’t it?
Not only is Nebraska free from bonded state debt,
but it is the owner and possessor of several millions
of dollars’ worth of bonds issued by sister common
wealths. These bonds are the investment of the
permanent school fund of Nebraska, which fund is
now in excess of $10,000,000. In other words, the
permanent school fund of Nebraska represents about
$50 for each child of school age in the state.
While we are pointing with pride to the many
good things we have in Nebraska, let us pause now
and then to point with equal pride to one thing we
haven’t got—a bonded state debt.
WHEN A BOY DIES.
When one whose days has reached the patriarch’s
allotment moves to his rest, little occasion is noted
for sorrow. Those he leaves behind will miss him,
but they do not begrudge him the reward that is
his at the completion of his task. When a strong
and lusty man is cut off in his vigor, there is regret,
for he leaves a task unfinished. And for the boy,
who is called just as he is stepping into the open
door of life, there is real sorrow, for he leaves a
task uncommenced. His promise, whatever it may
have been, is unfulfilled.
Every father and mother in the land today is
sending to the White House unuttered but tender
and effective messages of loving sympathy. The
sorrow that has fallen upon the president and his
wife, and the brother of the boy who has journeyed
on ahead is shared by all.
How wide is the door through which the spirit
may escape, even at a time when it seems most care
fully guarded, was never better shown. A little
thing, so insignificant and such a common experience
among active, energetic boys and girls, opened the
way. All that medical science or skill could do was
not enough to' stop the gap. “He cometh forth as
a flower, and is cut down.”
Calvin Coolidge, Jr., had modeled his life on a
splendid example. One of the pictures that have
become familiar to Americans is that of Calvin Cool
idge, Sr., and his boys. Again and again are they
shown together, and the fact is but attributable to
the intimate bond that held them close. A com
munity between father and sons sacred and full of
meaning. One has dropped out of the picture, here
on earth. The bond will be the stronger now.
A CANDIDATE AT LAST.
“Fighting Bob” La Follette is finally a candi
date for President of the United States. “Bob” has
been itching to be a candidate for years. In fact
it has beenfthe sole ambition of the Wisconsin sen
ator since long before Roosevelt took the Progres
sive nomination for himself in 1912. “Bob” had it
all lined up in 1912 in fact, but Roosevelt slipped
around him and made off with the prize.
So “Bob” has been trying to whip up issues ever
since in the hope of developing another great de
mand for himself as a candidate for President.
“Bob” has been lurid enough, more lurid than
ever in fact, but somehow he couldn’t whip up
much enthusiasm. Something must be done about
it, however. He just must be a candidate. “Bob”
is getting along in years. He finally determined
that the year 1924 must see the great adventure, or
never.
The opportunity came in the serious illness of
Eugene V. Debs, many times candidate of the So
cialist Party. “Gene” couldn’t run. The Social
ists needed a candidate—and the bargain was made.
In order to make it look as if there was a great
demand from the “peeppl,” that “Bob” sacrifice
himself, there was staged a "progressive” conven
tion in Cleveland on July 4. Those who read the
proceedings of that gathering, however, remember
the names of the steering committee: Morris Hill
quit, Victor Berger, Judge Jacob Pauken, William
H. Johnson—and several other Socialist Party
leaders.
On Sunday, July 6, these same men moved over
to the regular Socialist Party convention, joined
up with socialist mayor of Milwaukee, Daniel Hoan,
and laid the foundation for a Socialist “endorse
ment” of “Fighting Bob.”
The net result of La Follette’s life ambition—
to be a candidate for president—finds him taking
“Gene” Debs’ place as the candidate of the Socialist
Party.
The fact of the matter Is that Victor Berger, so
cialist congressman from the Milwaukee district;
Mayor Daniel Hoan, socialist mayor of Milwaukee,
and the Socialist Party organization throughout
Wisconsin, have for years been the mainstay of
La Follette’s strength in Wisconsin.
La Follette has always run as a Republican. But
his main backing has been the socialist leaders. He
has been edging over closer nnd closer to Berger
and Hoan, until he,has finally come out under his
true colors.
As the substitute candidate of the Socialist Party
he may poll as many socialist votes as the high water
mark for “Gene” Debs, 914,000 in 1920. Many of
the “comrades,” however, are sticklers for party reg
ularity and “Fighting Bob” doesn’t carry a mem
bership card, as "Gene” Debs does.
However that may be—“Boh” is a candidate for
President. He ought to he happy.
Filipino soldiers who turned bolshevik and mu
tinied may later thank whatever God thev worship
they were not serving under Trotzky when they
pulled their stuff. They would have found out what
a blank wall is for.
We hope Charlie Salter’s new automobile gives
him as much joy as it did the donors, and that he
be spared for a long time to ride in it.
If the democrats really want to end the
deadlock, we suggest they get together on Jiggs nnd
Barney Google.
Fighting Bob La Follette now has a chance to do
his stuff. He will never get away with another bluff.
Even New York will not be sorry when the
democrats go home.
The Free Ice and Milk Fund is 100 per cent serv
ice. Get in.

UPRIGHT UFRIGHTUS.
Rnv* tny friend, Upright Ufrlghtus,—
"Finding wrong will never right us,
Nor will grumbling east our fault* nnd flaw* awny.
This complaining makes rue nervous;
What wo need the most Is Service
To upbuild our faith nnd keep us from decay.
"Time Is ripe for ardent fighting;
Purdy foolish Is reciting
Day by day the shallow messnges sod vsln.
Now has dawned the day to rally
Round Integrity, and aally
Forth to honest goodllneea and godly gnln."
But I ask Upright Ufrlghtus,—
While I differ with bronchitis,—
How we'll hope to make our honest efforts win
Till we cleanse both cot nnd palace.
And let gravity from chalice
Drain the last atomic quantities of sin.

Voire for McAdoo.
Omaha—To the Editor of The
Omaha Bee: I note In an editorial
today that you again take a whack
at McAdoo. and also a whack at W,
J. Bryan because he has been sup
porting Mr. McAdoo. I have noted
for some time that The Omaha Bee
has been continually throwing bricks
at McAdoo. Luckily Mr. McAdoo is
so well and popularly known that the
bricks thrown by an Omaha paper
are not felt.
The question comes to my mind,
that If The Omaha Bee has so much
stuff on McAdoo In the way of cor
ruption, etc., why don't they present
It to the American Bar association
or the courts. Everyone knows that
the charges regarding oil made
against McAdoo all fell flat In the In
vestigation, but still The Omaha Bee
keeps harping and harping on the
subject. Whether this harping Is
simply because The Omaha Bee Is a
republican newspaper and McAdoo Is
a democrat, or for some other reason,
nobody seems to know. The fart re
mains that there is plenty of real oil
dope on the republican leaders with
out singling out one lone democrat
and trying to establish a case.
I lived In Washington, D. C., for
four years, and I know that McAdoo
was, next to Wilson, the most popular
man there during that time He 1*
still popular; he has ability, and It ill
behooves any Omaha newspaper to
keep pecking away at the man. I-et's
have more news and less fault-find
ing. I am a republican, but I don't
approve of such tactlca on tb* part
of any party paper—democrat or re
publican. Let's cut It out now and
forever. H. R. SHANLEY.

at a 14,000 automobile. A polite salesman sauntered out and
actually endeavored to sell It to us. After several minutes of

may be stated that we agreed with the polite salesman as to
price, but were unable to come to an agreement on terms.
"Be careful; death Is so permanent," Is a sign adorning a
filling station In North Omaha. Which reminds us that a lot
of people who tried to gain a minute actually gained an eternity
of time. The auto driver who boasts to us that he drove 200
miles In six hours merely advertises that he Is anxious to wake
up on the other side. We hereby announce our Independent
candidacy for the legislature, our purpose being to Pass a

who travel faster than 40 miles an hour on public roads.
We easily recall the time when the Police Gazette was
found mostly In barber shops and saloons, and was considered
by Truly Good People to be something to be Shunned and Its
devotees Prayed For. But the Pink ’Un was a Great Family ^
Journal compared to scores of flashy, trashy, sex-arousing and
virtue-flouting periodicals lavishly displayed on practically
every news stand. A free press Is one thing; a licentious press
Is quite another thing.
Horace Davis says the height of impudence Is for man
seated In a crowded street car to try to flirt with a woman
hanging to a strap. We can match that. Being somew-hat old
fashioned we recently arose from our seat in a crowded street
car to make room for a frail, gray-haired lady, but before she
could bow her thanks and take the seat a painted flapper of
about 17 slid Into It with a pert giggle. Then and there we
determined to become more active in the organization ef
branches of the Bedslat Club.
Most denunciations of "big business" fall from the lips of
men who give personal testimony to their poor business.
Twenty-eight years ago Mr. Bryan Insisted that mankind
