ADD www.wlMnnwrwlrt U r eld as wall as then- Alaska, Oregon and Montana have joined the Taft column. Thf, Mr. Boyd, Columbus voters will reciprocate next fall. An effort to 'make Bryan second choice was defeated by Minnesota Democrats. Money may possibly "make the mare go," but it didn't stem the John son tide in Minnesota. Mr. Bryan has not alluded to 'pre datory wealth" since his booster fell down in the attempt to buy Minnesota. Taft has made good. His manager claims enough pledged and instructed votes to nominate him on the first ballot and then some. The Senate has taken another swat at Roosevelt by passing the bill pro viding for the restoration of the motto', "In God we Trust," to the coins. The question now uppermost in the public mind is not "who struck Billy Patterson," or "where is the lost Char lie Ross"; but "where is Mrs. Gunness." Who is Franklin Murphy? He must be something more than a "small potato," for New Jersey Republicans have declared for him for Vice Pre sident Senator Jeff Davis threatens to tump the North for Bryan if the Ne braskan wins out at Denver. If the Democrats are hard up the Republi- will pay the hall rent. The national convention of the socialist party held in Chicago last Thursday, nominated Eugene V. Debs'for president, and demanded the abolition of the United States senate. With only Minnesota pledged to his support, Johnson is not counted on to put up much of a fight at Denver. When the convention convenes Bryan will probably be nominated on the first ballot The contest between the two factions the Democratic party in Minnesota re salted in the defeat of the Bryan boos ters. Governor Johnson was endors ed as the choice of the state for Presi dent A resolution declaring for the Nebraska man for second choice was defeated. A Missouri judge has placed dray men in the same class of business with railway corporations, by deciding that they are common carriers. It is now in order for the jobbers of Lincoln and Omaha to go before the State Board of Transportation and demand a cut in dray rates. . Who will entwine, his tentacles around second place at the Denver Convention? There are several el ligables in the Superanuated Club. Among them Grandpa Davis of West . Verginia, who was good enough for Parker in 1904 and ought to be good enough for W. J. Bryan in 1908. Mr. Bryan is quoted in a Washing ton interview with endorsing thefila nastering tactics of his party in con gress. When the democrats had a ansajonty in the house, at the time Springer was speaker, Mr. Bryan de aomnced what he now commends. At that time the Republican members the filibusters. There is said to be an organization inside the Democratic party of Platte eonnty sort of a wheel within a wheel that will make an effort to .carry the primaries for George W.

Railways are great distributors of wealth great circulators of money. According to figures produced by Gil son Willets, the magazine writer, the Pennsylvania company spent $600, 000 eliminating a curve at Trenton to save three minutes; the Santa Fe spent $10,000,000 on the Belen cut-off in order to save seven minutes; the New York Central spent $1,000,000 to save two minutes on the Spuyten-Duyvil cut-off; Harriman, on the Luciri cut off across Salt Lake spent $4,000,000 to save two hours, and the Baltimore & Ohio spent $7,000,000 for a tunnel near -Baltimore to save fifteen minutes. Willets, in his article in Leslie's Weekly, from which the above figures were taken, does not mention the Lane cut-off between Fremont and Omaha which will cost the U.P. company be tween two and three million dollars. "A careful counting up of the cost of railroad improvements, new roads and railroad development that had been planned for the next ten years," writes Mr. Willets, "shows a total of $4,000,000,000. Now they are aban doning those costly plans, pending the return to common sense on the part of the politicians who regard anti-railroad legislation as a stepfather to pub lic office. Meantime the fact remains that the nation is most wide awake, most rich, most powerful, most pro gressive, whose railroads are the best and most extended. We're it among nations because we've got half the total railway mileage of the world 220,000 miles; while Ada, with her mere 40,000 miles of railroads, is least prosperous. Note how the three rich est states are those richest in railways. Illinois alone has 12,000 miles of rail way; Pennsylvania,-ll,000; New York, 9,000; Vanderbilt lines serve 20,000 miles of territory; Pennsylvania lines, 20,000; Harriman system, 25,000; Hill lines, 19,000, and soon through the country are railroads running 56,000 locomotives and 34,000 passenger cars and 2,000,000 freight cars carrying last year the stupendous productions of factory and mine and soil represent ed by a railroad freight tonnage-iof nearly two billion tons." While railway corporations, like in dividuals, are selfish, yet, on the other hand, they are a public necessity and should .not be subject to unjust legisla tion or compelled to reduce freight rates below a basis that would not warrant the payment of fair dividends to stockholders, and reasonable wages to employees. It appears to be a pop ular fad, at present, for politicians to lambast the railways and other corpo rations for all our national' ills, real and fancied. - Mr. Bryan wants the government to spend ten or twelve billion dollars in in buying up all the railway lines in the country, and thus remove the rail way question from politics. President Roosevelt is not in favor of Bryan's idea, but insists that the government should control, but not own the rail way lines. To a certain extent the government should control railway corporations, but not to the extent advocated by the extremists whose policy, if adopted, would paralyze bus iness. The state of Nebraska has already reduced passenger fare in the state from three to two cents, and the railway companies are obeying the law. The Journal does not presume to know just how cheap the railways of Ne braska can carry freight and still pay fair dividends, reasonable wages to employees, continue to keep the road led in repair and meet other necessary expenses. It is evident, however, that a further reduction in the receipts of the severaj railway lines traversing the state would mean a reduction in the wages of all employees. Anticipating that such would be the case, the railway employees of the state have organized' the Railway 'Em ployees Protective Association. Mem bers representing the association are circulating petitions throughout the state asking that the State Railway Commission refrain from making any further reduction in freight rates at the present time. The employees feel that they are justified in the course they have taken. Many of the train men and shopmen are now idle or working on part time, and they realize that a reduction in freight' rates means a cut in wages. THE ATCHISON IDEA. A society banded together for the purpose of enforcing prohibition has re quested German-American citizens to leave Atchison, alleging! that the Ger man citizens are responsible for the lawless condition said to exist in that city. This is not the first time German citizens have been ordered to "pack np and get out," for having opinions con trary to those advocatedby other peo ple of a community. - In New Orleans, Charleston, . Richmond and other southern cities at the breaking out of the civil war, the governors of the states in rebellion ordered all Germans to leave who were friendly to the Yan kees, and many of them obeyed the 4m jf BwVV jwTv,vAj 1 1 III knssssE. snnnnKx:ssnnmif yr nwmwsK awwHwwwWyb. wwwwwwwwW .wWwwwwwwVwwwwwWwwwwUuWyyVV WBmSm wwZwEwwwfeLn Lww--B-wwwwV.LwwwHk da3yilP 50 Bishds of Wheat 100 Brands of Oats And all email grain in like pro portions are not unusual yields ia Jhe famous TRAMPING LAKE drstriot of WESTERN CANADA.

At Richmond, the capitol of the Confederacy, some of the Germans, who had property interests, took the oath of allegiance to the Davis government an oath which they were too patriotic as Union men to consider binding. It was this class of Germans that furnished valuable information of a military character to the authorities in Washington and be friended Union prisoners at Bell Isle and Libby prison. During the border warfare which raged between the free state people and the Missouri cut throats, the German citizens of Atchi son, Lawrence and other towns in eastern Kansas fought side by side with the other free state people to pro tect the homes of loyal citizens and defend Kansas people against the raiders from Missouri. It was the German citizens .of St. Louis and other Missouri towns that assisted .Union men in keeping the state from joining the Confederacy when the notorious Governor Jackson and his band of conspirators undertook to gain control of the government military post near St Louis, secure the arms, ammuni tion and other supplies and turn them over to the faction in Missouri hostile to the Lincoln government. The action of the men composing the Atchison association, styling them selves moral reformers is un-American and not in harmony with the constitution or the sentiment of the land. Men differ on questions of pol itics and public policy as they have a right to do, and should be protected in that right If a community fails, to enforce the law of the state or munici pality, it is either through negligence, or lack of public sentiment that those who offend are not punished. The fault is not with the law, but with the people as a whole. When an associa tion of men go so far as to request those who are not in harmony with their views on certain questions to leave the country they are treading dangerously near the line which tends to turn public sympathy against them and in favor of those they attempt to persecute by depriving them of a right guaranteed to them by the constitution. Think of it ! Fifty million dollars of "predatory wealth" will be expend ed by the Union Pacific Railway Com pany in construction work this year on the main line and branches. What does it mean? It means that the so called financial flurry, is over, that even in a presidential campaign work will continue and labor be .employed at remunerative wages. Nebraska people will absorb some of this $50, 000,000, and Columbus people and Columbus .business men come in for a portion of the money. With every prospect for a good crop at fair prices, calamity howlers in Nebraska will not succeed in turning the state over to the Bryanites. The tariff is at least the foster mother of trusts and should be done away with, but the democrat who has not the courage of his conviction to come out boldly for free trade should not talk. His so called "tariff reforms" is the usual democratic buncombe al ways indulged in. If tariff is wrong at all it is wrong in principle and op poaition to tariff means free trade. All talk of "tariff for revenue only" and "tariff reform" and tariff reduction" is amplr democratic rot and is the words of the political cowards and Free Lance. Chris Gruenther, the shrewdest Democratic politician and political manipulator in Platte eonnty, k too busy recruiting Bryan Volunteers to boost the candidacy of Edgar Howard for congress. This is a disappointment to some of Mr. Howard's friends, but the editor of the Signal evidently de sires to be fair, and those who are inclined to criticise hiss for the course he has 'taken should remember that Mr. Gruenther, as the leader of his party in Platte county, and one of the most influential and popular Demo- cratrin the state, cannot, with dignity, and in justice to the other candidates, mix in a scramble and become ar par tisan of any particular candidate; for, as Mr. Gruenther says, owing to his "active connection with the state com mittee and the Bryan Volunteers, the slightest comment might be mis construed." And now there is a prospect of an other multi-millionaire breaking into the United States Senate. Thomas F. Ryan, of New York, one of the shrewd est manipulators on Wall street, may, in the near future, represent the state of Virginia in the senate. He is a democrat and controls the political machinery of that state, and is report- red to have political aspirations. i Governor Hughes has announced that he could not accept second place on the ticket. Roosevelt said the same thing in 1900, but the party drafted him and he was forced to ac cept UP TO BRYAN. Everybody familiar with national politics knows now that a vast amount of money, was spent by the silver in terests in 1896 and again in 1900 in the effort to secure the election of Mr. Bryan, but the facts were less obvious at the time of their occurrence than since, just as the country- has been illumined as to the contributions made to the Republican campaigns of those years. But of late Mr. Bryan has de veloped acute antipathy to the misuse of money in politics. And, if he has been quite partisan in pointing his illustrations, he has justly denounced the practice in general. But now comes the shocking story that his back ers in Minnesota used thousands of dollars to defeat instructions in that state for Governor Johnson, on the theory that if Minnesota could, by such blandishments, be passed into the Bryan column,' the Johnson boom would collapse and disappear. This charge ought to be "meat for Mr. Bryan. He should have it investigat ed forthwith, and, if it is true, he should proceed to banish the perpe trators of the crime from the fold of Democracy. And if it should be shown that he had knowledge of what was going on, Mr. Bryan should be a real Spartan, acknowledge the fact and use his eloquence to justify his transgression or to plead his pardon. Plainly, it is up to him to do some thing. Kansas City Star. HIS PLEA FOR A BIG NAVY. H. H. Carr, president and treasurer of the National Farmers' association, is in favor of an American navy big enough to make it invincible. "Un preparedness for defense," he says in a letter sent out from the headquar ters of the association in Chicago, "is the chief cause of nearly every nation al conquest Our vast coast line makes us exceedingly vulnerable. Coast de fenses and mines are local in their in fluence, while the utility of a fleet is unbounded." Mr. Carr goes on to remind us that since the Spanish war the United States has become a world power. We have assumed-wide responsibilities and our interests are scattered over the seas. The president of the association therefore goes on record, in behalf of agriculture, the largest industry in the country, as urging Congress "to add to our most effective weapon of de fense." This letter, coming from an organi zation representing agriculture, the most peaceful vocation, may not draw the sympathy of all who are engaged in agricultural pursuits, but that it will strengthen the cause of those who believe that as long as the world is not yet ready for the olive branch the best way to insure peace is to prepare for war, cannot be denied. Lincoln Star. THE MAN FROM ARKANSAS Senator Jeff. Davis,- of Arkansas, had another inning in the senate yes terday. He had his speech typewrit ten in order that "no intemperate lan guage night escape his lips on this occasion." Among other "mild" re marks, he suggested that John D. Rockefeller and J. Pierpont Morgan should be indicted for treason. He also paid his respects to the press as follows: "Let Scavengers of plutocracy howl; truth, God's living truth where are its defenders? Miserable travesties upon noble manhood, post-graduates ia all art of slander or defamation, I challenge the nbeidued press; thepeo- pie knowyour designs and spurn yorr pretense, whether under show of argn-, meat or more servient hypocrisies. Go, damnable imps of pelf and greed. I defy your taunts. Tear to fragments my political career if 'it comport with your execrable will. Stifle and distort ma, every utterance. Not satisfied, if such be your brutal frenzy, lash my poor form into insensibility. Then if it be your further pleasure, gnaw from my stiffening bones every vestige of quivering flesh. Howl in wretched bestiality through my own innocent blood, as it drips from your fiendish visages. Drag then, if you want, what remains, into the filth and the vermin of your foul dens, and burn it upon the altar of Baal, or scatter it before the friendly winds of heaven to your betterr-the carrion crows of the field. All that they may do, all and more, if there yet be open further depth of infamy to a polluted, besotten press." The .public understands Jeff. Davis pretty well. He is a political dema gogue whose capital is violence, vitu peration and scandal. As a rule, he is regarded as a joke, but if he is any thing more, it is nothing good. Abuse of the industrious and prosperous has enjoyed a certain unwarranted popu larity, and he may please a certain cms that choose to be down-trodden, but no sensible man questions that Rockefeller and Morgan are better citizens, and have done more for the country than Davis, and others who try to be 'equally radical, ever can hope to accomplish. Indeed, Davis never hopes to accomplish anything but his own advancement It is likely, also, that Rockefeller and Morgan are selfish, as most men are. But there is this difference: The man who seeks advancement by the building up of a great industry, must, whether it is his aim or not, assist in the advancement of many of his fellow creatures. The history of finance, industry and com merce is replete with the names of lieutenants who are almost as great as the captains, and the army of well paid, comfortably situated employees is almost innumerable. On the other hand, the man who is always shouting about trouble and hard times, makes a great deal of both that others must endure, while he poses as a savior at a fat salary. As to the press, the public has too much confidence in its integrity to be deceived by the voice of a senatorial anarchist Subsidized organs there are, it is true, but they rarely have much influence or prosperity, and the best the public can hope from other pub lications is that they remain free, from the Davis habit of crying with grief for subscribers and advancement Atchison Globe. AN IMPARTIAL VlfiW OF BRYAN. Nothing will teach him poltical wisdom; His head is not built to hold it His processes of thought do not yield it He cannot think right on the great concerns of political policy and statecraft. Doubtless he would if he could, but the power has not been given him. What has been given him is a remarkably strong, en during body, a magnificent assurance, an engaging manner and a wonderful gift of speech. He is full of talent; he makes many friends; he is one of the best talkers in the world. . These gifts have won him the leadership that he enjoys. He is a great fellow, is Dr. .Bryan, but he is not a great states man and never will be. He is a fair moralist, a great entertainer, and would probably have made a notable preacher or an extraordinary actor. That he has great gifts is indisputable; that he has great personal attractive ness is evident So also is it evident to any thoughtful student of his rec ord that he is unfit to be trusted with the great responsibilities of the presi dency.

Two Ways of Preserving and Serving Tengue Hominy with Meat Salt Fish Skin Used to Clear Ceffee. Tongues are used fresh, corned, or smoked.. To cook, wash them thor oughly and bend the tip around to the root, fastening in place with a skewer. Smoked tongue should be freshened by covering with cold water and heat ing to the scalding point, then drain ing and adding fresh water. Repeat If necessary. Fresh tongues can be put Into boiling water, but all tongue should be cooked slowly until tender, then peeled and fastened In shape un til ready to serve. raised Tongue. Wash the tongue, skewer' it into shape and cover with boiling salted water. Simmer until tender, then peel off the skin and dredge with flour. Try out some salt pork and cook a slice of onion In it until slight ly brown. Then add the tongue, and when brown, put it in a pan or dish that can be closely covered. Add the onion, one-fourth cupful of finely cut turnip and carrot mixed, and a little salt and pepper. Surround with boil ing water to half cover and cook cov ered for two hours In a moderate oven. Turn after the first hour, adding more water If necessary. When done, re move to a hot platter, thicken the broth with a little flour diluted with cold water to pour and add more sea soning if necessary. Strain the gravy over the tongue. Hominy to Serve with Meat. Sprinkle half a cupful of fine hom iny into a pint of boiling salted water. Boil for five minutes, then cook over hot water for an hour, and if too thick add a little boiling water or hot milk. When done and cool enough to han dle, shape into cylinders, small cakes, or balls, and dip in egg, then in fine bread crumbs. When ready to serve fry in deep, hot fat If liked, a table spoonful of melted butter and a round ing teaspoonful of finely minced pars ley may be added when the hominy Is done. A more simple way of prepar ing the hominy Is to turn It while hot into a buttered shallow pan. spread smooth on top and when cold cut in diamonds or any desired shape and saute in hot butter or fat Fricassee of Fowl. When making a fricassee of fowl set It aside with the prepared sauce for two or three hours so that the pieces of meat may become thoroughly im pregnated with the sauce. This applies also to game or rabbit Salt Fish Skin in Coffee. Adding a small piece of the sum of salt codfish to billed coffee to clear aC Is an old-time method, practiced in country places where the eggs had to be sold to add to the support of the family. There is a gelatinous com pound in the fish skin which acts In the same way as a similar substance in the egg. The skin of any flsb could be used, but the salt nsh skin could be kept on hand for daily use. Fish glue or cheap Isinglass can be purchased at the druggists, and it is often used for clearing coffee. ' 'Jellied Figs. Wash a pound of whole figs and cook in boiling water until the skins are tender. Soak two level table spoonfuls of granulated gelatine in a half cupful of cold water for 20 min utes, then add it to the hot liquid and figs. When dissolved add one-half cup ful of ugar. then measure the liquid, adding to It enough orange juice to make three cupfuls. Set aside in a cold place and stir occasionally until It begins to thicken. Then stir in the figs, cut in pieces and pour into a mold wet with cold water. Chill thor oughly and serve with cream or boiled custard. Eggs and Tomatoes. Beat six eggs until very light Add half a teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper, three drops of onion juice and one and one-half cupfuls of rich milk. Mix thoroughly and pour into buttered cups, set in a pan of hot water in the oven and cook 20 minutes or until firm. Make a sauce of two level tea spoonfuls., each of butter and flour H. C.

When an outfit for sterilizing milk Is not handy the milk may be steril ised as follows: Fill an ordinary nurs ing bottle with milk. In a boiler put a piece of wood an inch thick, then water to the depth of an Inch. Plug the bottle with a clean piece of cot ton so that it will not touch the bot tom. Allow to steam for aa hour at least and then put the milk away in a cool, dark place. Several bottles of milk may be sterilized at oace. SOME SIMPLE GOOD THINGS. Fer the Breakfaet anal Dinner and Disss rt. TaMe Mix one cupful of sifted bread four, one-half cupful of yellow granulated cornmeal, two level teaspooafuls of baking powder, one-half level teaspooa ful of salt and one rounded tablespoon ful of sugar; stir In one cupful of milk, one well-beaten egg and two table spoonfuls of melted butter or lard. Beat it thoroughly and turn Into greased muffin pans and bake ia a quick oven about 90 minutes. The secret of a good baked potato is first a round structure, then a smooth surface, a well-scrubbed skin and a hot but not too hot oven; if oaked too quickly the part nearest the skin chars, but when just right, the, thin outer skin will peel off easily, leaving a mass of snowy meal inside. Bake from 30 to 40 minutes and when soft on pressure remove and serve "at once. When the skins are thla and of a deep red color I frequently do not pare the apples, but at all times I am careful to remove all the core, espe cially every bit of the lining of the seed cells, and to bake them In gran ite or earthen, never in tin. aa tin gives them an unpleasant favor and a dingy color. Fill the core cavities with sugar, heaped or scant accord ing to the tartness of the apples; add also a few grains of salt and autV clent water to half cover the apples. Bake in a quick 'oven and baste fre quently. Delineator. HOME-MADE DESK PADS. Few Materials Needed te Useful Article. Make Thia - A desk pad thatr with a little care and dexterity, can be made at .home successfully was seen among some new things not long ago. Two pieces of cardboard, about 20 by 14 inches in size, were pasted to gether at one of the longer edges, mak ing what looks like a pageless book cover. This was covered by a piece of flowered cretonne neatly turned at the edges, and these raw edges covered by a piece of firm white paper, which ex tended over the entire inside of the pad. Two or more pieces of blotting paper were Inserted and fastened by ribbons passed through both v covers" and blotting paper and tied oa the out side. A piece-of ribbon of the same shade, but wider, was fastened so that it ran diagonally across each cover and, tying, held the leaves in place. Have Ingenious Arrangement, Recently the New York Tribune made mention of a new East side philanthropic movement, the Volka kitchen, a "kosher" eating place for orthodox Jews. At first It was be lieved that on Saturday It could be open only for s:;yper and not for lunch eon, as religious Jews do not handle money or tickets on the day of rest However, an ingenious plan has been devised by means of which luncheon can be served on the Jewish Sabbath. This plan Is the simple one of adopt ing badges or pins instead of tickets. On Friday small badges are sold for seven cents. The observant Jew pins It on his coat from which It is re moved upon his entering the following day. Thus he obtains his Sabbath luncheon from the Volka kitchen with out breaking a law or tradition.
