Knee the secretary of war .returned from the orient his candidacy ha shown a remarkable gain in strength. This gain -is likely to be continuous. Taft is the most convincing and win ning personality among all the aspir ants for the republican nomination. The demonstration at Cooper Union shows the kind of impression he can make on an unfriendly audience when he devotes himself to the practical side of politics. Moreover, he has the whole strength of the Roosevelt administration behind him; he represents Mr. Roosevelt's policies more ably, sagely and judi cially than Mr. RoosevelthiMself rep resents 'them, and unless the republi can party is prepared to emancipate itself from Mr. Roosevelt, Judge Tart is the "logical candidate" in every sense of that much-abused expression. New York World (dem.) OWE OF THE nMAsTCIAI. The world's production of gold wsh $425,000,000 last year and continues to climb. A hundred years ago the yield was $12,000,000. Eight years ago it was $262,000,000. The world's stock of gold' has doubled since 1893. In recent years the line of profit it working gold ores has been lowered from $14 to $2. The output is prac tically sure to go on increasing. It is said that this great yield of gold is the main cause of the advance in the cost ooaylitioawiheeostof transportation is of tar leMiMfMrtaace than the qnes tioa of swearing the lacUitiet seeded. We already have hyfiur the cheapest railroad freight rates a the world rates that are the Marvel of the people of European countries. , What we Bead bow is not lew rates, freight or passein ger, but a vast increase ia facilities for handling wariness. Of all the absurd Movements of the last 12 Months in the railroad and 'political worlds nothing elseqsjito equals the ewbrt to force down 'railroad rates. It is. almost puerile ia its shortsightedness. It has coat oar country billions of dollars without a redeeming thing to the cre dit aide. Money for railroad expan sion eaaaot possibly be had under, present conditions. Infinitely 'better would it be for the whole counfry if the people would recotaise that, in stead of reducing rates, the railroads mast be given full authority to make aJ general advance in rates commensur ate with the increased cost of doing business. The railroad business Must, be given an opportunity to make pro fits large enough to tempt capital from everywhere to seek investment in rail road securities. Men are not going to put their aponey into such enterprises subject to the dangers of legislation and they would be foolish if they did unless the profit is great enough to justify such risks. To attempt to limit the earnings to 6 percent, or even 10 per cent, or to any fixed aMoant, is not only absurd, but eco nomically false, for any attempt to limit the earnings of legitimate' busi ness undertakings will inevitably react and cost the country far and more than the difference-between a fixed in come and the profit which might otherwise be made. Their own pre servation would necessarily require of the railroads as favorable rates as could be given with safety for them selves and their future. Of recent years the public seems to have come to the conclusion'that men with bulging bank accounts are wait ing eagerly for an opportunity to put money into railroad securities, thoiigb the control of the railroads is taken from them, and though other peopl who have ao interest in them are given authority to fix the rates at which they can. do business. The idea i very fallacious. The capital needed for railroad expansion is not going to seek railroad investment, but railroad men must seek the capital with dili gence. It must be presented in such way as to indicate profits large enough to justify the risk, or otherwise those who have the bulging bank account" will keep their money themselves or else put it in securities ovtr which they do have some control. Asa field for investment the railroad is no long er an attractive-proposition, and this, toot comes at a time when never in our history do we so much need money for railroad expansion.

The republicans of Netaaska are for Taft for their presidential caadi date, aad the desaocrats are for Bryan. 8o what is the ase of having an ex- i priMary election to select the The srcM of the state is discussing ejajte generally the Make-up of Ne hrasks's delegation to the national re pahKcaa convention. The names of oar most prominent republican leaden are Mentioned as those who alaoaM not go as delegates, but few are gaatd that should be so honored. For the delegates to be named by the wangrenaoaal district convention, we have net heard oae single name men- We take it that ao one will i try to he a candidate who is not and oat Taft men, for Nebraska's vase sheald he east solidly for the se- f war.

But on the other side is the larger outgo for necessities. In striking the balance thePadvantage is decidedly on the side of present conditions. Steady employment at good wages is more than an onset for living expenses, which are to some ex tent adjustable. In Mr. Bryan's famous Chicago con vention speech he said the bankers of the world had cornered gold, and that a few of them -met daily ia a back room to fix its price.. He is likely to be the democratic candidate agaie this year. What has he to say now of the gold supply and the cost of commodi ties? The low price of farm products in 1896, and for several years preced ing, was a theme on which he spoke pathetically. He denounced what he called a conspiracy to crucify numkind on a cross of gold. Now the com plaint is that gold pours out so freely that prices, in which it is nwasured, are soaring. Another branch of the subject is'a dearth of carrency, with nearly $500,000,000 a year ia. fresh gold coming from the mines. But, after all, these problems are oa the aide of pleatitude, aad ao doubt can be worked oat satisfactorily unless there can be too unmh of a good thing like gold. St Louis Globs-DeMocrat.

We ought within the next five or ten years to put one-half as much money into the enlargment of railroad facili ties as the total amount now represent ed in all the stocks and bonds on the railroads of the country. Where is so vast a sum to come from? If it should not come, then business will be halted, railroad facilities will grow steadily worse instead of better, and the country will suffer as it has suf fered for .the last few years because the railroads were unequal to the volume of traffic. The country holds its hands up in horror, and justly so, at the disastrous railroad wrecks, but railroad wrecks happen to a consider able - exteat because the volume of traffic is largely beyond the facilities of the railroads, and partly, too, be cause men have been taught during the last few years to seek to get as much as possible aad give as little of faithful work ia return as possible. While railroad employes generally are faithful to their trust, somcinefficient men, without a sense of their responsi bility, have eagerly grasped at this teaching aad feel that the railroads and the world at large owe them a liviag whether they eara it or aot, aad the aati-railroad agitatioa is largely responsible for this. Until these two things have beea chaaged the railroads mast labor under tre ureudous dsadvaatages.

Peo ple may theorize as much as they please; they may. say that railroads must be forced to expand, that they must be capitalized at exact cost, that the promoter's and the bankers's pro fits most be eliminated; but they will wait till doosasday before they secure railroads oa these conditions. The only possible chance for railroad con struction on a large scale is to make investment in railroad enterprises and railroad securities more attractive than can be found by large capitalists anywhere else in the world.
