President Diaz goes marching on and never promises them a golden rule, either. Did Mr. Bryan select Montreal in order to avoid a home-coming ovation on the dock? It was quite noticeable that the Tammany tiger did not appear In the Roosevelt parade. For a man of his temperament, Mr. Roosevelt stayed away from the auto mobile a long time. Jury fixing must be pretty easy in Chicago U K can be done from a win dow across the street. Hearst is advocating a third party. In addition to the Independence league, or has that been put to sleep? " Those made-ln-advancfl pictures of the Taft-Roosevelt meeting will now have to be called in and rescinded. The worst of it ia we have yet to hear from those Chautauqua stump ora tors bow It was they saved the nation. The same combine of two democrats and one republican continues to run tne pie counter at me county court bouse. Thus far, however, it has not been necessary to can out the militia to quell insurgency in the vicinity Oyster Bay. of Did any one notice that cordial greeting Mr. Bryan extended Mr. Wat son when the latter announced his re turn to the democratic party? Two of the anti-Saloon Insurrection ists are lawyers. Trust the lawyers to upset the apple cart if the preachers Insist on keeping the cash register. One of the bright signs of the times Is that the reputable lawyers are be ginning to take a stand against the shyster and his "tricks of the trade.' ( It Is plain now that in so strenuously opposing the fight the clergy was seek ing to defend its own name Johnson and Jeffries are both sons of ministers. Nearly a 20 per cent increase in bank clearings in Omaha for the first half ot this year as compared with the first bait ot last year. That looks like business. One of the members of the dlscred lted Douglas delegation to the late democratic legislation Is talking about seeking a vindication by running for congress. Next! Mr. Bryan says he never discusses politics when outside of his own coun try, but he did not hesitate when visit ing San Juan hill to aim a few vicious and malicious remarks at Theodore Roosevelt Jack London is a prophet aa well as literary genius, or as much so. He says that "the fighter with the quality of the abysmal brute will win at Reno." Now, anyone who could not ptek the winner on this tip must be ob tuse, indeed. That Meeting at Beverly. President Taft and former President ftoosevelt have met, laughed, talked and parted and so far as those present or those absent have been able to dis cern, the meeting prored to be as cor dial as It could have been between two old friends and mutual admirers who had not seen one another for sixteen months. It was. In fact, Impressive in Its spirit of affectionate friendship. The two men chatted for more than two hours, punctuating their conver sation with frequent peals of laughter, Indicating that they were really enjoy ing themselves. Since last they had met both had had many new and strange experiences, and doubtless they found enjoyment In exchanging these exper iences. If any disappointed statesman or politician can find in the meeting at Beverly the least sign of a disinte grated friendship he must have a pene trating vision. We believe the popu lar verdict will be that Taft and Roose velt are just as good friends today and as they were March 4, 1909, when one stepped out of the White House to make way for tha other. As a simpl i matter of fact, why. should they not lie? Nothing has happened to estrange them; President Taft has gone on car rying out, as far as they extended, the Roosevelt policies and giving the coun try an able, courageous and exceedingly strong administration and that too without any apparent thought that he in his conduct was amenable to any one Individual, but to the whole people. All this talk of Taft upsetting what are known as Roosevelt policies is pure fiction, but Industriously circu lated to take hold of unthinking minds. As time proceeds, however, and people view things in the light of dispatsion ate judgment, they are brought to real ize that whose ever policies have been carried ont, the Taft administration has thus for been productive of tangible results. With bis keen in sicht, Theodore Roosevelt sees this and must have expressed delight many times to his old friend and taken to himself a degree of pride in the vindi cation of his own judgment in recom mending William II. Taft to the people as the best man they could select to succeed him as their chief executive. A severe blow, Indeed, Is this meet ing at Beverly to the sinister hopes and aspirations of those persons who have been fanning flames of prejudice in the foolish expectation that Roosevelt and Taft would cease to be friends and political co-workers. Good Move for Maryland. Governor Crothers is exerting some practical influence in organizing a movement for the betterment of the farms and farmers of Maryland. His mission is not new, of course, being akin to the Roosevelt country life commission project, but it is unique so far as states are concerned, except as It bears some relation to the back' to-tbe-farm colony plan of Governor Hadley In Missouri. Farmers of Maryland have for years cultivated their soil without much definite aim and little or no scientific knowledge as to soil culture or the need for varying crops. They have pursued the old lines of plowing and planting and reaping without due thought of the future and their soil has become Impoverished until today the situation calls for. prompt and In telligent action. Governor Crothers, who is a practical farmer, therefore, proposes a commission of experts who shall go over the state, studying every condition and need and then applying such remedies as will meet the case, These experts are to teach the farmers by communities the lessons of modern farming, not merely conduct little hearings and cross-examinations and go away and leave the work; It is not to be an academic uplift, but an actual Improvement. Already the governor has begun bis general mission of betterment by hav lng good roads built and Maryland needed good roads. This be believes Is one of the first things necessary in the whole system of advancement, for it will strike a heavy blow to the old order and serve to break the farmers loose from it at the very outset and make them eager for further Improve ment. The gospel of good roads needs no further defense In this country. Undoubtedly if this work is faith fully carried out it will result in a vast enrichment ot the Maryland farmers and a general enlargement in the state's wealth, for It begins at , the source ot that wealth. Farm after farm In that old state Is said to be shamefully neglected because the owner or occupant believes it no longer capable of producing good crops. If this principle of soil culture and intensified farming is properly ap plied and works out as It has in other states, then these Idle or half-tilled farms will be brought back Into com mission and made to do what they are actually capable of doing, which, will mean vast new wealth for Maryland and individual prosperity to Jts farm ers and merchants. Work for the Tariff Board. The tariff board created by the last congress at the Instance of President Taft can do no greater service to tb people than give them the real facta about the tariff in Its effect upon pro ductlon, wages and the cost of living Fundamentally its work is educational and if it can displace ignorance with enlightenment as to these simple mat ters, It will be accomplishing its pur pose. Such education would have great Influence on tho people and per haps dispel blind prejudice and open the way toward honestly solving prob lems that actually exist Advocates ot a protective tariff be- lleve it safeguards American labor against cheap labor competition, while opponents contend It does not and nearly every man, whether he has ever given any time to the study of the question or not, has his own deep-set conviction on the subject and does not hesitate to air it. Congresses have never beeu able to enact tariff laws that satisfied all the people because of their conflicting Interests, but a tariff built upon scientific lines would, it Is believed, give th least cause for dissatisfaction. If the tariff board In its mission of Investigation could get the facts and bring them to light so that they may be presented to the general public, It should be the means of accomplishing great good and clarifying the whole situation. - Making a Soft Place to Alight. Another announcement from Mr. dryan may be expected shortly In which to events that have transpired while he was out of the country may be expected to cut a figure. The first of these is the final proc- lamatlon by Governor Shallenberger declining to accede to Mr. Bryan's de- and that he reconvene the legislature in special session to submit an Initia tive and referendum amendment to tha state constitution. The second Is the unexpected pro nouncement of Richard L. Metcalfe, as sociate editor ot the Commoner, at the Columbus banquet against Inserting a county option plauk advocated by Mr. Bryan into the democratic state plat form. The question that Is being asked on all sides is, Was Mr. Metcalfe acting by himself or did he have a hunch by wireless from the distinguished pas seng'er on a' trans-Atantlc steamer. The Metcalfe proposal to ' relegate county option as a local Issue to the respective legislative districts, where It properly belongs, has sound and con clusive argument behind it. But Mr. Bryan had gone on record uncondi tionally for a county option pledge in the event that the governor should fail to call the legislature according to the Bryan plans and specifications and it would look, therefore, as it Associate Editor Metcalfe were trying to fix up soft place for Editor Bryan's airship to alight. Lei us simply recall a few sentences from the speech which Mr. Bryan made ust before he started for Europe in the ball which he hired for that pur pose in Omaha. Here Is one: When I returned from the state after an absence of some months I announced that in case the initiative and the referendum was not submitted It would be necessary then to meet county option aa an Issue, and that I was In favor of a platform declar ing In favor of It. Here is another: If the liquor question must be disposed of beforo we can secure the initiative and referendum, then the sooner we dispose of it tha better. Here is still another: I will not admit until we are voted down in the convention or at the primary that a majority of the democrat, are willing to take orders from the liquor dealers. And finally: I still hope that we may have a special session of the legislature and secure the submission of the initiative and referen dum, but If that is made Impossible by the sordid interests that have thrown them selves across the path of this popular meas ure, then our first business is to remove the obstruction, and with the next demo cratic convention as the forum we shall Invite the champions of the brewers and the distillers and the liquor dealers, to show cause why they shall not be driven from politics In the state of Nebraska. Evidently, as we have said, either Mr, Metcalfe is smoothing 4 path for Mr. Bryan to back down and flxipg a soft place for him to alight, or Mr. Bryan will soon give orders for Mr. Metcalfe to back up, and will want to know what influences have been at work in the Commoner office during his absence. Wholesale Dish Washing. If there is one fart of her househqld work that the housewife dislikes above all others It is washing dishes and the hired girl looks upon that as tho most undesirable ot her tasks, while It Is notorious that father, during "bach lng" season, will stack dishes to the celling and go to almost any lengths to avoid washing them. Dishwashing is, In fact, one of the problems In domes tic science which our household econo mists have failed to solve. Inventors have devised various little machines for doing the work and none has proved successful, but here is a New York firm with a solution for the prob lem. This firm offers simply to take a contract to wash the dishes for the household. It sends its wagon around twice a day, once to get the dishes and again to deliver them. It takes them, scraps and all, if desirable, to Its place ot business, washes and returns them. guaranteed not to be broken. On the face of It this appears to be the panacea holding forth the house holder's paradise and its operation will be watched, no doubt, with greater in terest than any modern innovation of late years. If successful in New York, where It Is still In the experimental stage, it will force Its way out Into the Interior and so we need not be sur prised to have wholesale dishwashing establishments around the corner in all cities very soon. And why not? We have our com munity of interest eating plans, and some of them are said to have proven satisfactory. Certainly it ought not to be as difficult to wash dishes by the wholesale as to cook, for the work is much less scientific. This may have a vital bearing, too, on the servant girl problem and. If this Is ever settled, then there is nothing left but to settle down and live happily. Still, If ever religious denomination is guaranteed the constitutional right to "the peaceable enjoyment of Its own mode of public worship," It must be that the right to worship peaceably gives no right to disturb the peace of others; if not, freedom of worship may resolve itself into a question ot which denomination can command the biggest drum and enlist the strongest horn blower. It is up to those who circulated the petitions to put Mr. Bryan's name on the democratic primary ballot as a candidate for senator to file theli papers with the secretary of state. Fail ure or neglect to file such nomination papers Is a violation of the primary election law, punishable by fine or im prisonment or both. Before their special bond election Lincoln newspapers were Insisting that defeat of the bond proposition would be a victory for the wets. Wonder what they will say about It now? A Gentle Touch.

Bit VAN AS SDNATOR. Some "Hume Polka" Insist that He ' Must lion. Cleveland Plain Dealer (ind. dem.). Whatever may be thought ot Mr. Bryan's fitness for (he presidential nomination there can be no dapbt of the propriety of h s st-eking an election to the s.-naie. lie stanr'B today as the acknowledged representative of a considerable minority of the citizvns of the United States. The minority will. In all probability, never elect a president ot the United States, nor Is It even likely again to dictate the nomination of a dem ocratic candidate for the highest - of fire. But It would be wholly proper for the ex ponent of extreme American radicalism to Ut given a seat in. the senate, where his views and . opinions might be officially voiced, i . - Nebraska would be distinguished by plac ing Mr. Bryan In the upper house of con gress. Mr. Bryan would be distinguished by an acceptance of the honor. Many great Americans have finished their careers In the senate. Webster, Clay and John C. Cal houn are Important names In American his tory.' There is no reason why William J. Bryan should continue to struggle for what now appears to be unattainable. It he Is really serious In the advocacy of his policies, and this no one doubts, he should by all means seek a senatorial scat from which to expound them. DEMOCRATIC JLESK AIAJESTB. Revolt Against Pryaalsm Galnlaa; Eminent Reernlta. Pittsburg Dispatch. The revolt against Bryan is growing apace. Following uovernor Harmon s re fusal to obey orders and the overwhelming indorsement by the Ohio state convention of that refusal, Maryland Is heard from. In an Interview before leaving Waahlngton, Senator Kayner, discussing political pros pects, in turn addressed a pertinent ques' tlon to Mr. Bryan. "Will Mr. Bryan and his followers," he inquired, "permit the democratic party to nominate a president of the United States and to send to the people a platform of its own construction? If he shall insist that he must select a candi date for us and that he must frame a plat form, then we must rise in our might and assert the principle that no one man has the right to dictate the nomination and to formuiate the principles of the party. Three times have .we gone down to defeat under platforms that we could not defend before the people." Mr. Kayner says he admires the Ne braskan aa a oitisen, indorses a number of the great principles tor which he stands, but there are others he repudiates as un democratic and visionary, and he thinks the colonel should no longer stand In the way of party success. Think of that Re flect upon this picture of Mr. Bryan, not as a leader, but as an obstructionist! A few more declarations of the Harmon and Kay ner brand and there will be no neeed for anxiety about whether the sage of LJncoln will be a candidate for this revolt. More than his perennial candidacy, blocking all other ambitions, his dictatorial attitude to wards other democrats and his Insolent In sistence upon his own infallibility as an expounder of democratlo doctrine have pro yoked the spirit of Independence and self aasertloa In leaders like Kayner and Har mon and probably In many others yet to be heard from.

In Other Lands Blae tights en What Is Trans, plrlng Among the Har ana rar nations of the Earth. Two widely separated movements among opposing forces mark the advance of re ligious liberty and toleration In Kurupe at the present time. The parliament of Great Hritain Is considering a measure recasting the agression oath, eliminating those words and phrases that are offensive to Ui I lioman Catholic subjects of the king, and limiting the obligation te a clear declara tlon to maintain the supremacy of the English Protestant church. Both political divisions In parliament favor the change. No doubt King George desires the modifica tion, as did the late King Kdward. The only opposition comes from religious ex tremelats, whose Bliitnilat assertions and prophesies are a reflection on the civilisation of today. It is expected, there fore that the measure will receive favor able action, and will enable the new king to ascend the throne without reflecting on the religion of any of his subjects. At the same moment the religious body which, In Qreot Britain, applauds the tolirnnt spirit ot the crown, is not enthusiastic over a modification of religious intolerance In Spain. The union of church and state In that country grants a practical monopoly of religion, education and burial to the Koman Catholic church. No other creed Is tolerated openly, but may be practiced privately. The liberal ministry of Premier Canulejas proposes to modify the con cordat of ISM to the extent of permitting freedom of worship, and has taken that step penditig negotiations with the Vatican. The Vatican objects to tho change while negotiations me proceeding, and as a con sequence diplomatic exchanges have taken on a belllcoso tone. The ministry appears determined to proceed further than" the grant of freedom of worship. Religious orders which flocked Into Spain from France In the last five years atfd did not receive the authorisation ot the govern ment, 'are threatened with expulsion, and those orders engaged In manufacturing are to be taxed. Should the liberal ministry maintain control of the government, a revolution In the religious atmosphere of Spain Is a coming certainty. If the im pending change occurs. It will form one of the most Interesting episodes In the checkered diplomatics career of ' Cardinal Merry del Val, papal secretary j)f state, and scion of Spanish nobility. The evolution in Journalism is strikingly illustrated by the Peking Gazette, an ancient Institution which celebrated Its millenary two years ago. Originally it ap peared at Intervals and In rudimentary form. Today the Gatette Is a modern news paper, Issuing three editions dally. Great changes have been made in fifty years, and since the boxer rebellion the numbend boldness of the newspapers have increased. There are seven different styles of writ ing, vis., the common, the "demlvulgalre," the familiar and the epistolary. The papers for the people are printed In the common style, and some have adopted the new alphabet sanctioned by the govern ment. Greater reverence Is shown to the press in China than In other countries. Old papers are never put to base uses, they are collected and burned In the pagodas. The Chinaman believes that profanation of newspapers is followed by blindness. - Leading artists and archaeologists of Paris have Inaugurated a movement to save from destruction the old churches of France. By tho separation law the question of repairs of these ancient structures has become a problem. In many country dis tricts the Roman catholic inhabitants are too poor to subscribe the necessary funds, nd the municipal councils have no power to do so. Hence when an old edifice, dating perhaps from the thirteenth or fourteenth century, Is seen to be tottering the author ities solve the difficulty by employing melinite to blow It up. The latest Instance was near Versailles. It appears that when the mayor of a commune of atheistical pinions, and they are many In France, gets the chance of blowing a church to pieces he is delighted, and the consequences are becoming deplorable. For the moment rivalry In warship build ing is equalled If not surpassed by th demand for flying machines as an adjuncl to military establishments. - In England Germany, France and Austria, private en terprlse has been supplemented by liberal government provisions for the exploitation of aviation as an adjunct of warfare. And now the Italian parliament spurred to action by the strides of her neighbors, has voted, by a wide margin of affirmatives, upward of a million dollars for the purpose of investigating the Bcienca of flying, with special reference' to Its applicability to military operations on land and sea. The lsa of the appropriation means that the government Is anxious to put the country abreast of her . rivals. Count Khuen-Hedervary, the masterful new premier of Hungary, who, In the re cent election, routed the political factions favoring complete separation from Austria, enjoys the personal friendship of the aged emperor, and is a genuine reformer within Imperial limits. One of the expected re suits of his signal victory Is a grant of universal suffrage In the Magyar kingdom The premier, who has often been charged by his opponents In Hungary with being a Croatian, and by .Croatian with being a Hungarian, is neither the one nor the Other. He Is by birth aa Austrian, born in Btyrta of a Tyroleae family. He was however, educated on one of his father's states In Slavonla, and studied afterward at the universities of Agram In Croatia, and of Budapest. Young King Manuel of Portugal Is sorely perplexed in the region of the heart. He wants a wife, but the royal families ot Europe possessing eligible princesses have given the young man a cold storage frost None of the reigning houses care to annex an unstable throne and its scant revenues. Manuel is not wealthy aa monarchs go. His civil list is Just $1,000 a day, and It was hoped he would be able to make match with a popular princess possessing large means In her own right The father of the princess was strongly opposed to the alliance, noV that he disliked the young Portuguese king, but because of the un settled state of the country. HeaslaeT Ail, UnllitBtenlns; N Boston Transcript. Men of all parties are visiting Oyster Bay, and the colonel must remind himself of the Judge who said: "If I believed all the statements of th prosecution, I should give the case to the government.

Th wreck ot Count Zeppelin's great ex press airship will compel Imaginative cal eulators the world around to postpone th time when transatlantic air voyages will be In order.

If negotiations between the United States and Italy fall over the extradition of Charl ton, the diplomatic questions involved ought not to be allowed to overshadow the plain justice of tiie case. Whether the young man was a deliberate and responsible mur derer or an irresponsible maniac, he Is equally dangerous to society and his liberty would bo a menace to everyone who hap pened to arouse the "ungovernable temper" which ho acknowledges he possesses. And apropos of such cases in general, It Is to be noted that their families come forward In their defense with Instances of their irresponsibility. Where it is known that mental derangement exists, a heavy re sponsibility rests on the families of such persons in not taking precautions to pre vent the outbreaks of suicidal or homicidal mania which are too well known to accom pany this derangement to come at any time as a surprise.

The Atchison Globe says that no adver tiser has ever tried to control its editorial policy, the remark being occasioned by the charge often made nowadays, that the big advertisers direct the editorial policy of newspapers. The experience of the Globe Is the ex perience of most newspapers. The mer chant who doe. a great deal of advertising Is more Interested in the circulation de partment of a newspaper than In tbe edi torial department. If a dally paper goes to the home of the people, and Is read Ly them, he is satisfied, and it may chass after any theory or fad, for all he caroB. He has troubles of his own, and he Isn t trying to shoulder those of the editorial brethren. There are newspapers controlled by peo ple outside ot the editorial rooms, and a good many of them, mores the pity; but the people exercising that control are not the business men who pay their money for advertising space. The newspapers which are established for political purposes are often controlled by chronic offlceBeeker, whose first concern Is their own Interests. There are newspaper controlled by great corporations, and the voice of such news papers Is always raised In protest against any genuine reform.

Oh. blame not tho girl who Is queen of the summer And pledges her troth to a dosen or more. The elude and the clerk, Hie merchant and mummer, For an art. si like her deserves an encore! And blame not the man from sobriety straying, ' Who clings to a lamp post, or telegraph pole, He bus this excuse he Is only displaying A "circumstance over which he's no con trol!" Oh. blame not the butcher who raises his prices 1 And your ardor for meat most success fully damps. One generous virtue excuses hi vices. He gives you a double allowance ot stamps! And tilamu not the man who says that to morrow He II repay that loan he will, 'pon his soul! If he tails In his promise, well, that to his sorrow Is a "circumstance oven which he's no control!" Oh, blame not the husband who's left In the city. If loneliness makes hlm despondent and sad. Though outwardly ho may-be worthy of Pity. . Yet Inwardly he U consumedly glad! And blame not the bard If his verses are prosy, And move with a steadily slumberous roll. The fact that he makes all his teaders quit dosy Is a "circumstance over which he's no control!" , , , , - his advertisers just to show that he Is free and Independent. If he shows a decent respect for hiB patrons, who pay him their money, and make it possible for him to carry on the business, he Is "subsidized" or "controlled." The newspaper owner Is a business man. like the dry goods man or the grocer. The merchants are expected to have consideration for their customers and they are not supposed to be subsidized by the man who spends to with them, but the publisher is supposed to demonstrate his courage by showing that he. Is ungrate ful for the patronage of his friends. It Is a funny combination, when you think it over. Emporia Gazette.
