The Culebra cut sounds like the choice part of the beef and It costs nearly as much. It goes without saying that the New Tbougbters waste no thought on tem perature discomforts.

This Intimacy with bugs and bees which the New Thoughters advocate is likely to breed contempt if carried to extremes. Still, confinement In the hospital at Rochester, Minn., cannot be quite so uncomfortable as Imprisonment in the Omaha club. v The late George Washington, were be living today, probably would have found an excuse to keep away from the coronation. Masked men held up an "editorial" card club In Ean Francisco and got $1,000. Evidently only rank outsid ers "sit in" there. . "I would cheerfully support Mr, Folk for the presidency," says Mr, Bryan. There Is one vote for the Missourlan, anyway. King Ak-Sar-Ben might possibly get a few bints by careful reading of the detailed accounts of the coronation of bis royal cousin of England.- A newly Incorporated company pro poses to establish a hospital at Lincoln for treatment of victims of liquor and drug habits. Why at Lincoln? Wltard Edison predicts that trol leys will disappear from street cars soon. That man will be predicting the disappearance of straps after a while. It is pleasing to note that Mr. Mor gan completed his curio purchases on the continent In time to aid our Sir John Hays Hammond in representing us st the crowning. The golden shower started In Omaha by the systematic arrest and fining of auto speeders Is naturally making South Omaha ait up and take notice with envious glances. Go to It It's a great game. Coming around the corner for second heat, our old friend, WUlls Reed, announces that he will deliver two Fourth of July orations In pursuit of the democratlo nomination for United States senator next year. Those other democrats on the senatorial race track will have to speed up. J Dem.ocrt.tio Insincerity. The rejection by the democrats In the house of the constitutional mendment for election of United Statea senators by direct vote 6f the people as passed by the senate with the Bristow amendment Is a self-In dictment of their Insincerity. The Drlstow amendment, It should be un derstood, docs notadd anything to direct election as popularly demanded, but strikes off the rider put on by the house democrats to deprive the fed eral government of the control over senatorial elections which It now pos sesses. As pointed out by Congress man Norrls, the democrats have tried to make capital by advocating the election of senators by direct vote, committing themselves repeatedly to this proposition In state and national platform pledges, only when con fronted with their first opportunity to redeem, to repudiate them Instead. The specific declaration was first incorporated Into a democratic na tional platform In 1900. as follows: We favor an amendment to the federal constitution providing for th election of United State senators by direct vote of the peopled In 1S04 the plank In the demo cratic national platform was simpli fied to read. We favor election of United States sena tors by the direct vote of the people. In the last democratlo national platform, promulgated at Denver In 108, the declaration Is as follows: We favor auction of United Btates sena tors by direct vote of the people, and re tard this reform as the gateway to other national reforms. In no case have the democrats de clared that they favor direct election of senators on condition that the states are given exclusive control over every phase of their election, yet that is the proviso they have put in to Justify their refusal to accept the sen ate proposition shorn of all side Is sues, and without entanglement with, other questions. Most people will believe with Judge Norrls, that If the democrats had meant what they said all these years they would have concurred In the sen ate resolution. Their failure to do this forces the conclusion that they have not meant what they said and are now Becking to embarrass the re publicans, who are conscientiously en deavoring to pass this proposed amendment on to tn"e people by whom it has been demanded. When at last we have a senate willing to respond to this demand a democratic bouse prefers to close this "gateway of other national reforms" unless they are permitted to revive and strengthen their ancient and obsolete states' rights. Suppressing Quack Nostrums. Advertising matter for patent nostrums that disclose fraud In their extravagant claims of efficacy la to be excluded from the United States malls if congress enacts a law to be urged upon It by the administration ana tne medicines themselves ha barred from. Interstate commerce. This latter provision is suggested as a way around the supreme court's de cision holding that the present pure food and drugs act, while prohibiting misrepresentation of Ingredients, does not prohibit misrepresentation as to curative powers. President Taft, himself, has urged congress to so amend the pure food law as to correct its Tltally weak points and protect "an evil which menaces the general health of the peo ple and strikes at the life of the nation." There are legitimate and valuable patent medicines as well as quack con coctlons. The public should be safe. guarded against the fakes as against other frauds, such as bogus stocks and securities, If need be, by denying them use or the government malls. The pure food and drags act was a long step In the right direction, but as we have seen. It did not accomplish all that needed to be done toward stop ping false representation. It might be possible even to thwart the pro posed law, bat It will be more diffi cult, at least As to the Interstate commerce fea- ture of the present law, it is unfor tunate that it was not made stronger, although it might not be amlas to state that three Justices dissented from the view of Its Inadequacy. Why Distort History! The bellwether of the Water board, more than any other one person, is re sponsible for the $8,860,000 mortgage which the taxpayers of Omaha are to be compelled to assume., Tet he is again making speeches, which, it reported, display his usual mendacity. especially when he "arraigned the city council for its hasty action in appoint ing the appraisers, who, he charged. were In the employ of the water com' pany." We take it that we are up against It to pay $8,880,000 for the Water plant which this ssme wster spouter assured us could be had for $3,000,000. But that does not warrant such willful dis tortion of the facta as he Indulges. The compulsory purchase law, which he saddled upon us, was framed in de tail with a view to proceeding by the spprslser plan, and when The Bee pro tested vigorously against it its pro tests were brushed aside as inconse quential. The city council did not ap point the appraisers, but, on the con trary, the city's appraiser was named by the Water board with a haste that betokened fear that the water com pany might try to prevent action. Whatever the council did in confirm ing the appraisers was merely at the command of the Water board, by law j supreme and paramount. The keUwether of the Water board as indeed proved a costly luxury to the taxpayers of Omaha. If the own ers of the water company had hired him at a handsome salary be could not ave served them better. The Powder Trait Explodes.' The Powder trust may be the next to pass In review before the United Ststes supreme court, for efter four years of litigation it has been declared by the circuit court for the District of Delaware to be an illegal "combine In restraint of trade and ordered dis solved. It is Inconceivable of Its not taking advantage of tbe full gamut of ppeal, however surely established the circuit court's finding may appear. This Is a sweeping decision, for it pplles to twenty-eight out of the forty-three component companies and touches about every kind of gun powder made. It affords additional ground for faith in the rule of reason, which seems to have governed again n this case, although the suit was dis missed so far as fifteen of the com panies were concerned because they. were not shown to have had connec tion with the trust. Thus far no big industrial concern commonly classed as a trust that has come before the supreme court since this series of prosecutions began has escaped an order of dissolution, and It is not fair to suppose that the Powder trust will have smoother sailing. A Magnificent Hospital. The opening and dedication of the enlarged Crelghton Memorial 8t. Joseph's hospital signalizes the pos session by Omaha of one of the largest and most modern Institutions of this kind In the country. The new hospi tal will have facilities to furnish beds for 800 patients, and in equipment, arrangement and attendance will be unsurpassed. Omaha Is Justly proud of Its fine hospitals and tbe work they are doing to alleviate sickness and suf fering. With these greet hospitals and their staffs of skilled physicians, sur geons and nurses Omaha la bound to be looked to more and more by all the aurroundlng country as tbe chief haven in the west for the afflicted re quiring the best medical and surgical treatment, and to furnish unusual op portunities for medical education. Consistent. The professional anti-saloonlsts at Lincoln are bringing down criticism, if not malediction, upon their heads by their refusal to submit to the ver dict of the ballot box when the town recently voted to go wet, and their in terposition of purely technical obsta cles to prevent 'the execution of that decree. To keep the applicants from getting licenses they have gone into court setting up that their petition signatures are invalid because secured a few days before tbe wet decree be came effective. We come voluntarily to the defense of tbe Lincoln anti-saloonlsts so far as attacks on their, consistency are con cerned. When they advocated county option last year they were for it, not to let tbe people rule, but to make more dry territory. Had they thought that county option would result favor ably to the wets they would hare been against it What they were fighting for was not the right of the majority to decide, but their own desire to ex terminate the saloon. If Lincoln should next year go dry, and the wets resorted to similar tactics to prolong the wet season, what a howl there would rise, but the professional anti saloonlsts would be thoroughly and entirely consistent Hill and Canadian Extension. Expert opinion now questions that Mr. Hill's authorized issue of $600,' 000,000 bonds, of which the first $20,000,000 have been sold, has solely or chiefly to do with tbe Burlington, but Inclines to the theory that it looks rather to a Hill invasion of Canada when reciprocity shall have become a fact The Financial World admits that the average observer is quite likely to accept the story given out that this was a Burlington bond project, but adds that "as this story was Inspired from high quarters, it is possible that it was put forth more to divert attention from the true plan than to present a faithful portrayal of the real situation." Great Northern and Northern Pa clflo have both hit high marks on the New York Stock exchange since these bonds were announced, and that, con nected with Mr. Hill's ceaseless vlg llance in supporting Canadian reci procity and his known Intention soon to begin extending bis lines across the Dominion, leads quite naturally to the belief that his bond issue is to cover the cost of that campaign. So far as the Burlington is concerned, the bonds would be of a refunding character. and refunding bonds do not have the effect upon stocks that this Issue haa had. All these clrcumstancea lead the Financial World to conclude: "We, therefore, prefer to believe that the real cause of the boom in these stocks lies in the direction Indicated Cana dian Invasion project Being a native of Canada, Mr. Hill I might favor reciprocity because of that, with no other impelling reason, but even without a plan to Invade the Dominion, his interests probably would derive much benefit from close trade relations. . It is quite reasona ble to believe that he haa the exten sion plan in mind as an outgrowth, if not an argument, for reciprocity. Governor Aldrleb has finally named his military staff, conflninx himself ta the) offloers of th National Ouard. which means that a lot of s-eolonels appointed by his predseaasors ars left with ccmVj sold-lsos) uniforms oa their handa, and no prospective market. Had some of the old colonels harbored a suspicion that the honor carried no salvage they might have hltatod about accepting. All that keeps the Laird of Sklbo from coming right out and expressing his honest opinion of John W. Gates s that "I do not want to put dirty words in my mouth." A southern Journal observes that If Champ Clark doea not watch out a re publican paper will nominate him, for the presidency. Has the Commoner changed Its politics? . Sla-altlraat Teat of Memory. Wall Street Journal. Another point In favor of th steel trade is that It Is so much better for the memory than the sugar business. Golden Ave for Lawyers. St. Louis Republic. If you don't think the golden age for lawyers la found under this administra tion, Just count the number of lawyers In the cabinet and note the size of the pay ments mad to Department of Justice spe cial counsel. Hobby on the J amp. Chicago Record-Herald. London policemen are being kept so busy handling th coronation crowds that they have no time to sleep and ar compelled to talc their meals In tabloid form. When they shout, "Long live the king," they will probably mean it Qalck. Money Makers. Springfield Republican. , The Oxnard brothers figure in the news paper headlines of the day as quick money makers from trust consolidations. They sold to th Sugar trust a refinery said to be worth 1300,000 for certificates of th trust which soon became worth 1500,000 more. But Andrew Carnegie was paid In bonds of th United States steel corpora tion soma 1200,000,000 mora for his steel plant than It had been considered worth. Hata we become again so fresh to trust sensation that a fSOO.OOO profit story can stir usT Overreaching; Greed. Boaton Transcript. Experienced travelers Just returning from abroad report that London Is exceptionally free from Americans that tbey have been driven away by the exorbitant coronation charges which are so excessive as to pro vok ven th more affluent and reckless spenders. They will most of them be on hand for th week of coronation, but that Is all they are disposed to stand of the greed of London hotel keepers and others. Meantime they have flocked to Paris to pass th waiting period, and that city Is likely to profit more from the English coronation ceremonies than London. Jnry Verdicts and Victuals. Ban Francisco Chronicle. Th Denver judge who put his jury on a diet of lettuce sandwiches and water In order to expedite a verdict may have strained th law, but he Is evidently a shrewd judge of human nature. Th rela tion of victuals and verdicts Is vital. There IS th well paid and well fed Jury that de lays a decision In the interests of mature consideration; the well fed Jury that acquits a man it would hav found guilty on an empty interior and we all remember the story of the wise- foreman who, when asked to order the meals, said, "Eleven porterhouse steaks and a bundle of hay."

Reply to Mr. Bryan One of the Wicked Democrat Who Doited the Ticket Make a Few Remark. Brooklyn Kagle (Ind. dem). Mr. Bryan Is not a humorist, though h Is the cause of humor In others. And they themselves are the occasion of tragedy toN his own thinking. Three times a nomine for president In vain, he complains, In this week's Commoner, that enough people, claiming to b democrats, voted against htm to insure his defeat "Three strikes and out!" can be understood In base ball, but Mr. Bryan will not apply It to th gam of perpetual candidacy. It Is not optional tor democrats to support or op pose him. If they ar democrats, It Is obligatory on them to support him. If they oppose him, they are not democrats at all, but republicans, and sinners, or evn worse, mugwumps. Mr. Bryan goes still further In his Jere miad, declaring that In his three cam paigns "ha has had to meet treachery within as well a-i assailants from with out" He scents "a conspiracy to silence him" and to question his right to a hear ing. A conspiracy requires only two, though It may comprise any number more More than half of the American people wer against Mr. Bryan, and ar now. Their sentiment, however, Is merely op position to him. They had, and have, no idea or hope or expectation to "silence him." Such of them as are wicked repub licans gleefully find his facility for speech to be hurtful to democracy, their common "enemy" and Mr. Bryan's periodical nomi nator. Democrats, perhaps, might silence Mr. Bryan, if they could, but know they cannot. They hav entered Into no con spiracy to "silence him," and he Is talking and writing constantly, as usual. H Is In the pathetic condition of those who scent or see or smell "conspiracies." Hospitals and asylums treat many such cases, but many mor escap them, and Mr. Bryan Is still at large. lie more than suspects those who pre tended to ba bis supporters. Ha has found such as he mistrusts, even though com mitteemen, "in league with th opposition and In secret correspondence with his ene mies." Ther is no end to the wickedness he unearths and has confronted. Bom of his discoveries ar Indeed startling. "Falsa and malicious representation on the part of papers subsidised by th predatory In teres ts." Th unsubsldlsad parts of such papers were presumably for Mr. Bryan or "neutral." "The party platform attacked sometime openly and sometimes by In nuendo by those supposed to be supporting the ticket." This was not only wicked, which la bad, but artful, which Is worse. It could be cured only by having Mr Bryan write all the editorials for all th papers in question. Than If they wece sub sidised, it would be by him, which would quite unite righteousness with rhetoiic. There have been other sinners, and all of them democratlo sinners. "Distinguished democrats" have gone ti this extreme: "Inserted weasel words in th platform to make it ambiguous and uncertain." "Weasel words" are good and also bad. And among Mr. Bryan's democratlo ene mies have been "timid politicians profess ing friendship only out of fear of their con stituents." And most of all and worst of all, Mr. Bryan has "seen th platform re pudiated right after the campaign by news papers who professed to support it during th campaign." "Who" in this relation is ungrammatlcal, but when Mr. Bryan parts th air with words, parts of speech or ao-, eldents or lnlcdents of grammar ar trl- j umphantly disregarded. This is th limit th telegraph gives to Mr. Bryan's complaint today. Th date la summer. Th complaint la, therefore, sum mer complaint For that there is medi cine, but not for a mind diseased, anil. whll Mr. Bryan's body Is bttr and bet ter, thanks to the habit of becoming bigger ana bigger, he Is, by th tesUmony of his mind, that victim of megalomania to which Hamlat declared none could minister and for which he contended there was no medi cine. ."W ar truly sorry for this sufferer. Th world Is, Indeed, all befor him, "whr to choose," but enemies surround him, and in proportion to th faot that they hav no existence, his conviction of their multitudinous existence I intensi fied. "Subsidised." "proletariat" "pred atory" ar th terms on which he rings tn changes of sound. . It never occurs to him to please the democracy, for he owns it It never occurs to him to desert the democracy, for his ownership of it in the past has been rich revenue to him. It Is occurring to the democracy to run away from him In lieu of longer permitting him to run away with it Hence his tears, his wrath, his objurga tion, and his defiance which la so near to despair that every experienced political- alienist will regard them to be Identical The Eagle has never been for Mr. Bryan. but has taken a pleasure, which, w sus pect Is malignant in printing all his words on political subjsota, and the Eagle pro fesses, oontends and believe itself to be democratlo," expressly because it thinks jhat Mr. Bryan is not a democrat at all and that democracy la not democratlo at all so long as Mr. Bryan la Its man and the party Is his manikin. Of course, th Eagle, tn Mr. Bryan's opinion. 1 "subsidised." But the Eagle and its readers are not aware of the subsidisation, though thay are grate fully eonsolous of the value, the versa tility, th fecundity and the fascination of Mr. Bryan aa a toplo and a target, from which or, shall we say, from whomT they would not pray to be delivered. The party la bent on delivering itself from Mr. Bryan, but th party, we fear an almost hop will have a harder time In accom plishing its deliverance from him than It probably realises or possibly deserves. "It must be remembered that our party Is poorly supplied with newspapers and that we have great difficulty In answering the misrepresentations of the republican press." Commoner. Bosh! The republican party has no news- papers. The democratlo party has none. It either had one it wouldn't know what to do with it Incidentally, It wouldn't be a newspaper. Mr. Bryan haa a publication In the advertising columns of which demo crats ar advised to prepare for victory by sending a remlttanoa to the office of the Commoner, special rates being offered. In th other part of th publication will be found reports of everything he bad had to ay during the preceding week, which Is al ways much as to Quantity, Only to the ex tent that tbe democratlo party belongs to Mr. Bryan can the Commoner be said to be Its property. A quit claim deed to both would simplify its situation, but that would suit neither th publication nor Its pro prietor. Both would languish. Paatal Baaaaaalaa. Bt Paul Dispatch.
