E.- Cady for the republican nomination for . governor ought to appeal with special force to Nebraska republicans at this particu lar time. There la no question tbat with- a candidate afthe bead of the state ticket of vigor and force , com manding the confidence ot the penplj by bis own record and personality. Ne braska can -be wholly redeemed from democratic rule at the coming election. Mr. Cady la ocie of the strongest characters among our, public men. lie is a pioneer of Nebraska who- bas con tributed to Its upbuilding for more than a third of a century, a successful business man respected and admired by all who kno him. He has served the people in the legislature more than once and has never been found want ing. He has responded to every call of his party. He worked In the har ness as chairman of the state commit tee which conducted the successful campaign that kept Nebraska in the republican column in 1892. ' M Aa state senator in 1905 Mr. Cady sponsored the constitutional amend ment for a state railway commission, without which the reform measures enacted by the subsequent republican legislature could not ' have materi alized. On the liquor question he has stated his position plainly: that while he personally believes the . present local option law adequate, , be would not assume as executive to obstruct the enactment by the legislature of a bill changing the option unit. .. He has always stood for clean government and against graft and official corruption and has never let anyone doubt his uncompromising attitude toward pub lic thieves. On national questions Mr. Cady bas been outspoken for the Roosevelt-Taft policies and is in thorough accord with the reform program put through by congress to carry out the recommenda tions of these two great presidents. In a word, Mr. Cady is the kind of a candidate behind whom all the repub lican forces could be quickly rallied to put up a united front against the democratic opposition. The opportunity to secure a candi date of the high character and ability conceded to be possessed by Mr. Cady has seldom come to republicans of this state. Mr. Cady ought to be nomi nated, and will be the nominee if the republicans who want the highest type of standard-bearer will go to the polls and vote for him at the primary next Tuesday. -.-.. Versatility. ; . Report has it that Mr.. Bryan will stump Iowa in the interest 'of his old friend,. Claude Porter, who is running for governor on the democratic ticket and on a vet platform. In the mean time he will be, leading the, fight for county option or ultimate prohibition In Nebraska. Johrl G. .Woolley, the former pro hibition leader 'in this country, once said he would call wrong wrong wher ever be found it, "in bell, Halifax, Norway or New York." But Mr. Bryan Is a versatile politician. It will not cost blm the least exertion to stretch his oratory to fit both cases at one and the same time. He can jump from a prohibition platform in Lincoln tb an antl-prohibltlon rostrum in Des Moines without missing a word, or seriously discommoding his argument. It will not be the first time Mr. Bryan has run a two-ring circus.' It will cause him no more difficulty than It caused him in 1904 to stump half the country for Judge Parker, whom he had vllll- fied and denounced as a tool of the money power before his nomination at St. Louis; no more difficulty than It caused him to preach free silver as the paramount Issue, '.'which is never set tled until settled right," in 1896; im perialism as the chief bugaboo in 1900, and government ownership in 1906; the trusts In 1908. An- man who could go to Washington and urge the democratic senators into voting for the Paris treaty, and then go out on the stump in the succeeding cam paign and denounce as republican per fidy tbat treaty which eould never have been consummated but for votes delivered by his influence any man who could make such quick turns as these, will have no difficulty whatever In preaching for a dry democracy in Nebraska and a wet democracy In Iowa. Fewer Deaths on Bailroadi. Only 253 passengers of railroad trains were killed during the year ended June 30, as compared to 381 the year previous. This is still too many, but the reduction is great and It is encouraging, for it not only shows what can be done in the way of pro tecting the lives of people who ride on railroads, but It also Illustrates the fact that railroads are making a faith ful effort In that drectlon. The public and the government have been holding up 'to "the American rail roads the small number: of deaths on European lines and demanding an Im provement. The effect has been whole some. Our lines have not yet reached the low list of the continental roads, but they will very soon at the present rate of reduction. It Is apparently true that the big railroad managements In this country today are more deeply concerned In the ways and means of controlling speed than of attaining it, and the problem before them Is, not so much how to facilitate the quick delivery of passenger and freight, as how to make the conveyance of its human traffic safe and secure. Toward attaining this end millions are being expended In modern devices, and. In this, as in 'Other departments -of railroad srvlo,. weotern lines take a leading part. The Union Pacific bas perhaps done more with its wonderful block signal system to revolutionize this movement than any other line, and it has aroused among all roads a healthy rivalry for the protection of life. Still the railways have a long stretch before them to reach what they should. Last year, while only 263 passengers were killed, 4,944 trespas sers met death and 3,625 employes. The roads probably should not be held accountable for the deaths of the tres passers, but they are responsible In some measure, at least, for the safety of their employes. It is another wholesome sign, however, that they seem to appreciate this fact and are endeavoring to take care of it. Another Six Million Acres. Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture says the government has decided to take 6,000,000 acres of land out of the forest reserves In the mountain sections and convert them into homesteads, adding: "But we are not going to get a man a home stead upon which to start a lumber company." And that is the keynote precisely. Homesteads are not for the speculator, nor for the man looking for a chance to use the land for other than a home and the government can do no better service to the real homeseeker than by standing squarely on Its original purpose as thus expressed by Secretary Wilson. ' ' Several western states with large forest reserves have for a long time urged the president to set aside such part of them for homesteads as could be used for cultivation. The demand sprang from legitimate and reasonable conditions, first of which was the need for more homestead entries, and the government bas fully satisfied itself of the justice of it. Moreover, the oc cupation 'of this land, on which valu able crops may be raised, will increase the taxable area and lighten, the tax burden on all the people In these states by bringing more in to produce new wealth and greater revenue. In stead of destroying or impairing the forests in these reserves, the system of habitation will have precisely the op posite effect, for It will create land breaks across which fire will not be so likely to travel and will place the homesteaders there as constant pro tectors of the forests. It has not been stated bow this 6,000,000 acres of land is to be al lotted to the homesteaders, but if on a half section basis, it will give . to 18,760 families each a tract of 320 acres, while if it is to go in quarters it will bring in 37,600 new settlers, or, rather, that many households, with 160 acres apiece. In either case it represents another tremendous stride toward the peopling and development of ine west. 3 Congressman Hitchcock's official or gan reproduces an article from Col lier's Weekly knocking on Senator Burkett for enumerating the things he got for Nebraska aa constituting one reason for his retention at Washing ton. The chief argument Congressman Hitchcock can urge in his own behalf Is that he bas spent six years at Wash ington without getting anything for his constituents and can promise to dorne more if promoted to the other end; of the capitol. : .; . ," Writing to an eastern paper on thl county option issue, Editor Dobbins of the Lincoln News has this to say: ' Aa the governor's part in legislation relate only to attaching his approval or disapproval, the question will, In fact,' be sent to the legislative districts for settle ment. That is exactly what The Bee has been -contending all along, and if so, no one's republicanism cart be deter mined by his Bupport of or opposition to county option. There is no good reason why the hides of animals slaughtered at South Omaha should ' not be tanned ' and worked up into leather and leather products right here. The manufactur ing industries which Omaha ought to encourage particularly are those which transform the raw material of field, farm and range into finished articles for general consumption. A lot of literature on behalf of one of the candidates for nomination oh the democratic ticket is going out on letterheads of the "democratic city central committee." If anything like this were perpetrated by a republican committee, what a howl would be raised. Prohibition is not in sight In Texas just because the people are to have the chance to vote for or against it. Such an opportunity in Texas more likely means tbat prohibition will be out of sight as soon as the votes are counted. The railroad lawyers of the country who met at Portsmouth, N. H., to try to crack the new railroad law found it too bard a nut for one sitting and have adjourned until October 1, when they will renew operations. Mayor "Jlm'a" creosote block veto puts the city attorney up to defend something which he haa said is in defensible. A little thing like that, however, never bothers a lawyer.' The favorable publicity which the only legislative candidate on the re publican ticket who signed up "State ment No. 1" Is receiving from demo. cratlc sourees speaks for itself. The redoubtable "Jerry" Howard, who in the late legislature at Bryan's command helped enact the so-called Oregon law, writes to The Bee to say that he forgot to sign "Statement No, 1." As a law-maker "Jerry" might be a great success If he did not have to compete with the bunch of grafters with whom he was associated at Lincoln. What Banlaeu Melharie Will D. Wall StreVt Journal.

General Grant haa established a precedent by Inviting the private and non-commissioned men "killed" in a recent sham battlo to dine with him. As the guests were theoretically dead, the Gordlan knot of military social etiquet was thus cut In the most graceful and humorous manner, as such etiquet could affect only those living in active service. If this precedent is fol lowed, no one will complain of being um pired out' In. mimic warfare as "dead." Ticklish Job Yield Fortaae. Boston Transcript A generation has elapsed since Qeneral Newton of tho United States engineer corp performed his famous fea of blowing up Hell Oate, but it is now recalled by the death at Denver, Colo., ot John B. Clark, the man who accomplished the dangerous task of transporting the 300,000 pounds ot nitro-glycerlne necessary for the achieve ment. Dynamite, which, is comparatively safe, while even then invented by Nobel, was not available; the nitro-glycerlne might go off at any time, and no one seemed anxious' for . the Job. Clark, who was captain of a Hudson river steamboat, suggested to his employers that ho was willing to take his chances. At first aghast at the idea, terms were offered to which they finally consented, and he carried out In safety -his perilous responsibility. The price paid was never "known, but It was sufficient to enable Clark to forsake steamboatlng and engage In larger enter prises in the west. - . PARCELS POST. Privileges Ilefuaed at Home Qraated Abroad. Boston Transcript. The accomplishments of a parcel post agreement with Hungary tenda to force the same Issue at .home. People naturally ask why it is that eleven pounds of merchan dise can go by mall to a foreign country, while only fpyr jpounds will be taken by the same agency. for transmission betwoen cities here; and further, why the long dis tance mail should1 ie carried at the rate of 13 cents a pound, while 16 cents is the home rate. Of course it is a Very long story. The government goes into these foreign arrangements, n pat, because of Its obli gation' aa amjrnjer of the Postal Union, while It abstains from ' granting the same prlvHegpaa. at home because It haa not yet, seen fit to take over the express business,1 as any . extensive popularisation pf the parcels post idea would do. Good argu ments may be made on both sides of this project; but most people would clearly like to see the government take up this work. TWO DEMOCRATIC BOOMS. Floating oa Hot Air la Ohio aad la ...

It is safe to say he means that This man is serving as well at Indian apolis as Governor Harmon Is at Columbus. He is making a very good governor. Ha has shown the qualities of leadership.

He advocates a (straight revenue revision, upon lines condemning protection as an evil which should be completely uprooted at as early a day as possible. He follows In the footsteps of the men who dominated Indiana in the days of its democratic In fluence. Both the Harmon boom and the Marshall boom depend upon contingencies. It Ohio and Indiana, go 'republican this year both booms will dlsapear. If Ohio goes republl can and Indiana deroooratlo the Harmon boom will collapse, and the Marshall boom should gain. If Indiana goea republican and Ohio democratlo the Marshall boom will collapse, and the Harmon support should go to the! Buckeye neighbor.

Qovernsaoat, Prjtatlng Office at Washington Working Overtime for the Oongreesloaal Comsoittee. A dull, dreary, somnolent aummer atmos phere envelopes Washington. President, cabinet and others big enougn to get away without aaklng for a vacation have fled to cooler reglona, and only the mild-mannered civil service clrk rubbers through the twi light corridors of public buildings. In Washington It is night all night In the night time and every day Is Sunday, save In the great building at the comer of North Capitol and II streets. There It Is day all day In the daytime and It knows no night. The rumbling machinery whirs Incessarftly, reports a correspondent of the New York Times, and tired shift Is replaced by shift indifferent as tb what quarter of upper or nether sky the sun may be disporting his summer self. Wagons go busily along, re ceive their bulky cargoes and hurry away to the railway station. For this Is now the great ammunition fac tory of the country, turning out war ma terial for the hot campaign that set In Just last week. Here are manufactured for both the belligerents the projectiles whose mod els have been approved by the veteran lead ers who sit in council on either side of the great combat; projectiles by the thousands and millions, fashioned to suit the particu lar form of fighting the battle may assume In different parts of the nation and the individual ability of the fighters to handle them. It is the government printing office, and the sign now outside the door is "ammu nition at ail hours, served to order and prepared while you wait." It is turning out "cannon bread for the 391 congressional representatives who have lately girded up their waistcoats and hast ened from the task of saving the country t Washington to that of saving their offi cial lives at home; for every man who boasted a seat In the last house is, calling on his constituents to indorse him, not by embossed resolutions and engrossed testi monials of appreciation, but by going to the polls and voting for him.
