If King Oeorge visits Canada he will see a country that has advanced about as vapidly as he has since he last saw it as prince of Wales. And their last days shall be better than their first. That sometimes see id b to apply so aptly to congresses and legislatures, especially the last "day." Twenty 'thousand men are needed to harvest the crops of the northwest, .according to reliable estimates. Let the army of the unemployed take notice. A few candidates filed for nomina tions at the coming primary have an uncontested field, but most of these are on the prohibition or socialist tickets. For fifteen years Mr. Bryan has been denouncing democrats who voted gainst him Jn 1898, but evidently he does not like to take his own medicine. . Note that the same set of resolu tions that denounces Bryan as a traitor endorses Governor Harmon, the Wall street favorite, unrl boosts Senator Hitchcock, the confessed bene ficiary of Bartley. Mr. Bryan still possesses his old charm of drawing 8. R. O. bouses, as was illustrated ' when the church In which he ipokp here Sunday night was l ackey to overflowing and streams cf people left u ntble to get seats. The fellow who does not need the free ad vertising Is the one who gets it. Nebraska has a former United ftates senator ruunlng for district Judge, and a former member of con gress running for supreme judge. Still, that Is far better than having them hanging around Washington as lobby ist! and picking up corporation rrurabs from the tables at the national capital Treachery, Ingratitude and Other Thing. The vials of wrath exploded et Mr. Bryan by the Dahlmanltes in county convention assembled and the return shots fired by the former give vent to fires that have been smoldering for a year, ready to burst Into a blaze at any moment- The resolutions as promulgated brand Mr. Bryan a traitor to his party and endorse for the succession to Mr. Bryan as party standard-bearer in 1912 Governor Harmon, the only democrat promi nently mentioned whom Mr. Bryan has indicated he would refuse to sup port. Of course, the Harmon and harmony part ,of It Is simply a tail ender designed to irritate the distin guished Nebraskan, for the endorse ment Is given to Harmon merely be cause be Is blacklisted by Bryan. Mr. Bryan's counter proclamation Is Indeed cleverly constructed. He harps upon the bouquet to Harmon, whose venial sin Is that he did not support Bryan in 1896. as commenda tion of the same act of treachery charged upon himself, and seizes upon this to support his assertion that the offense complained of against himself Is not betrayal of the democratic party, but defiance of the IJquor in terests that are In the saddle In that party In this state. This warfare of words is indeed In teresting to outsiders, as well as to insiders, but there is danger of con fusion and misjoinder of issues by dust-raising on both sides. The Dahlmanltes are unfortunate in not stating their case clearly, for what they have to complain of Is personal Ingratitude even more than party dis loyalty. On this score the Bryan op position to Mayor "Jim" last year was inexcusable. Mr. Bryan never had a more devoted follower than "Jim," who for nearly twenty years had been a hewer of wood and drawer of water for him regardless of cost, or consequences. "Jim" was good enough as state chairman to manage Bryan's campaigns, he was good enough to be Mr. Bryan's personal representative on the democratic na tional committee, he was good enough to have Mr. Bryan'a endorsement two times as a candidate for mayor of Omaha, but when he was nominated for governor by direct popular vote he suddenly forfeited Mr. Bryan's confidence and support. Another place where Mr. Bryan gets his wires crossed Is in his retort that ho should not be charged with party treachery because he did sup port "all of the ticket except Mr. Dahlman." That Is where Mr. Bryan is entitled to no credit, for there were candidates on the same ticket with Dahlman far less deserving of his support men who had sold out the democratic party for money, men whom Mr. Bryan, himself, had only a few months before denounced by name as tools of the brewers, men who had no claim whatever for per sonal or party service and yet the good Mr. Bryan shut his eyes and held his nose and swallowed the whole ticket "except Mr. Dahlman," pre sumably for no other purpose than to Justify later on his party regularity. Where Mr. Bryan's position, how ever, Is strong Is In his boast that his bolt of Dahlman set patriotism above partisanship and was a refusal to Join In debauching the party by putting a private interest above everything else. Although Mr. Bryan has talked loud and long about holding the man above the dollar, and country above party, this Is the only time, of which we are aware, that he put his preaching Into practice. Mr. Bryan swallowed Parker and made speeches for him after de nounclng him as a dishonest tool of Wall street. He supported Hitchcock for senator in spite of the confession of complicity in the Bartley' embezzle ment. He permitted the democratic rag-tag and bob-tail to climb Into office on his coat tails without a word of protest. In the case of Dahlman, however, he rose to the occasion, stifled every sense of gratitude, repu diated every debt owed for years of personal service, declined to recognize the stamp of democratic nomination and momentarily shook, off the party shackles. What matters It what was his motive or purpose, whether re venge on the brewers, whose un divided support he was so bitterly dis appointed in not getting n 190R, or merely to set up an object, lesson of his power as a warning for 1912? Alien Coal Mineri. Twenty-one men are killed In a coal mine explosion in Pennsylvania and the press dispatches reporting the disaster contain these significant words: Only three of the dead are Americans. " That, of course, must not be taken as Indicating indifference to the fact of the tragedy that snuffed out the lives of eighteen foreign., born citi zens, nor of placing a higher value on the life of an American born than on that of an alien. What it does mean Is that the appalling frequency with which these mine disasters occur is rapidly driving the Americans awav from the mines and leaving the work to be done only by the poor foreigner, who, forced to take whatever employ ment presents itself, goes into the mines totally ignorant or oblivious of its dangers. And in all too many cases he comes out as unconscious of them as he went In, for the tragedy cf death cheats him out of learning. Expert reports are on record to show that year by year the coal mine owners of Pennsylvania are forced to depend more and more upon foreign labor from southern Europe for the operation of their mines, because Americans refuse to aase their lives. This, it is alleged, deters them from equipping their mines with every r osslble safety device. They take advantsge of ignorance. But. If that Is the case, It is a shame and inde fensible. The foreigner is as much entitled to protection from danger and death In the pursuit of, honest toll as his more enlightened brother who has learned the tricks of the mines and stays away from them. It will be well when the government feels strongly enough on this proposi tion to take hold and see that more attention is paid to life by the men and interests who operate the big coal mines in this country. Business Outlook. With the abundant grain harvests indicated by the government reports and the prospects of well-maintained business forecasted by Dun's trade re view, the outlook warrants no discouragement. Of course, most lines of trade sag at this season, and they have undergone no exception this summer, but this dullness Is no proper criterion for reckoning on the future. According to Dun's the Inactiv ity this summeV is not abnormal, not any more pronounced than usual. On In the business condition, for the believing that its effect will not deter trade in recuperating as much as It usually does, owing to other condi tions presaging a lively demand in so many lines of fall and winter stock. Railroad earnings, always a factor In the business condition for the month of June made a satisfactory comparative showing, losing only 1.5 per cent as compared with earnings for the same period a year ago. In very few Instances Is a heavy loss re ported by any single railroad. With the incoming harvests as great as they promise to be, railroad traffic may look forward to Increases rather than decreases. While the conservative tone natural at a time so close upon a national election may be expected to prevail, sound prophets are looking for good business during the remaining months of this year and the first part of next, which is as far Into the future as the average prophet cares to venture. Nothing In the money situation particularly calls for uneasiness. Dun's says that commercial operations, as Indicated by the volume of bank clearings, again reflect a trend toward Improvement. The country Is enjoy ing a vast foreign trade. In fact, according to government reports, the year ending June 30 was the largest in foreign business this country has ever had, the total volume of trade amounting to $3,500,000,000, which is more than (263,000,000 in excess of last year's record. That the work devolving on the head of a railroad law department furnishes no bed of roses, nor is especially- conducive to long life, Is again emphasized' by the death of Ben T. White, -chief legal engineer of the Northwestern. The sudden and de plorable termination of Mr. White's career at a comparatively early age recalls the death of his predecessor, W. B. Sterling, and the passing of W. R. Kelley and John N. Baldwin of the Union Pacific. The service of an In dustrious and conscientious lawyer for a big railway corporation Is evi dently the strenuous life. Our new superintendent of schools will doubtless take notice that among other duties he is expected to perform is to ride on an Ak-Sar-Ben float artistically clad in historic garb, and that in no other way can he prove him self a good booster for Omaha. Our Nebraska supreme court will have to decide soon whether a woman may legally hold a municipal office In this state. It is lucky we have not yet acquired the recall for Judges, for we can see where It might be brought into quick action. Now we know better what "Mike" Harrington's past due fulralnatlon was timed for and also what he meant by expressing doubt whether Bryan could be elected a delegate-at-Iarre to the next democratic national conven tion If the primary were held right away. Merrick county fiuds that it will have to vote a bond issue over again because the stipulated rate of interest is too low to float It. They must have some folks up In- Merrick county who are almost equal to our own Water boarders. It was real mean of Ig. Dunn to re mind them of the time when our pres ent democratic United States senator bolted his own party nominees to sup port a bunch of A. P. A.'s running on the republican ticket. Could it be that the Tobacco trust, is on Dr. Wiley's trail? Those ugly. charges came forth a day or two after be denounced chewing and smok ing and predicted their abolition in fifteen years. This preparation for the big naval attack on the port of New York does not alarm iis. though, since General Wood assures us all our defenses are Impregnable. Judicial Dlan.it nltta Trlmmlnti.

OMAHA, July li.-To the Kdltor of The Ree: Chemist Crowley's report to the ef fect that the breweries are cleaner than the dairies Is Interesting, but not espe cially Informing. Anyone at all familiar with the facts has long known that the breweries. In fact, the bakeries, the meat markets, the grocery stalls, all places where food for human consumption Is handled or cared for, are kept cleaner than the dairies. Not that a dairy cannot be kept clean. Mr. Crowley cites the example of a model dairy he discovered at Indianapolis. May I be permitted to call attention to the fact that the printers discovered long ago how to keep a dairy clean? Years ago, when the International Typographical union undertook the establishment of a sani tarium for Its tuberculous members. It was confronted with the problem of how to secure a supply of pure milk. The solu tion of the problem was not so simple, but It was solved. At the Union Printers' home at Colorado Springs a dairy has been In operation for many years that is a model. It Is so simple too, that one wonders why It is not more frequently copied. The cows are brought In from the pasture some time be fore being milked, and are permitted to rest and cool off In a large yard that Is kept scrupulously clean. They are then taken Into a barn and thoroughly groomed, and their udders are washed In an antisep tic solution. From here they are taken to a milking barn, which has a concrete floor. Just before tha cows are brought In, the air In the milking barn Is washed by spraying with an antiseptic solution, and the floors are flushed similarly. Then the cows are milked by machinery, the milk la strained through cotton, and is set away to cool before being served to the guests of the home. I am not familiar with the Item of cost, but have been assured by Superintendent Deacon of the home that it is but slightly above the charge made for milk provided In the ordinary way. PRINTER. Heelprority vs. Inanritency. BRADSHAW, Neb., July 16,-To the Editor of The Bee: . The above caption, which appeared In the "Ietter Box" of The Bee of Friday Is a remarkable produc tion. Looking at the captain one would naturally conclude that the reader was about to be treated to an argument, but In stead there appears no set argument what ever, and but little of anything else but balderdash. The writer utterly falls to de fine or locate himself squarely on any of the many issues lie speaks of and the reader Is left In the dark as whether Mr. Anderson Is an Insurgent, stundpatter. pro gressive or a democrat. There are but two persons among those named In his arti cle to whom he has given a clean bill, Joe Cannon and Judge Smith, .late congress man from the Ninth Iowa district. Tak ing these two points as a clue to his politi cal Identity, it Is possible for the careful reader to find traces of standpatism, but, then. It Is difficult to get at what the gen tleman really wants to say, and the guess Is, however, that he la extremely skittish as to his groundB and does not care to hamplon even what he really would like n political matters. The gentleman Is not alone In his predicament, for we find leading newspapers extremely cautious how they touch on any of the many sided political phases now before the people. President Taft, alone, appears to be the only man who seems to feel certain that he la right and Is willing to stake his reputation, rise or fall. In the advocacy and stand on the Canadian reciprocity bill, and for this sincerity and confidence In what he Is advocating he Is gaining the favor and confidence of the best thinking people tnot agitators or demagogues) of this great American republic.

Tectimseh Journal-Tribunal: Our amiable contemporary appears to have got its wire crossed last week when It referred to a paragraph in this newspaper as "a Joke" when we mentioned Oovernor Aklrich as a suitable running mate for President Taft Fact Is. President Taft will need a pro gressive republican as a running mate to hold the vote of Nebraska or any of the other western states, and out of the good ness of our hearts we suggested Oovernor Mdrlch as the man who might lend strength to the ticket.
