Kot Afraid to Be Fair.
The president defies precedent and
sets a very good example in bis per
sonal statement, giving credit to the
democrats for their part la the pas
Hta of the reciprocity bin. From
time Immemorial it has been the cus
tom of White House documents or
statements to appear In the third per
son, nnd the president's adoption of
the first person In this case shows
bow keenly be feels the obligation of
acknowledging the help he has re
eel red in puahlng through this meas
ure la whosa wisdom he so firmly be
lieves. Mr. Tart does bo barm to himself to
recognize the assistance be received
from the democrats and to admit that
without their aid he would have
failed. As this acknowledgment by
him Is gratuitous. It reflects all the
more credit upon him as a large-sized
executive. It Is a good example to
hand down. It ought to Inspire the
democrats In their further fight over
Tarioos tariff matters and . serra a
similar purpose among some otherwise
disposed republicans In the senate.
Power of Public Opinion.
' The power of public opmlon seems
to be recognized ss a positive factor
in monarchial England, aa well as In
democratic America. Here are fac
tional leaders of the Tory party writ
ing long letters to their newspapers
attacking the stand-pat lords for re
fusing to yield on the veto bill and
forcing their inevitable extinction by
royal appointment of enough new
peers to override them. What do the
letter writers expect to achieve by air
ing their views and their grievances
in the public prints, simply publishing
their positions? Not at all. They
propose. If possible, by this means to
arouse public opinion to a point where
the reactionary lords will feel obliged
to heed It and save, at least, some
thing of their ancient power.
It is quite a remarkable example of
the recognition of the power of public
opinion or sentiment. When Tory
England comes to the point of aeelng
the necessity of caring what the peo
ple think and Inviting their co-operation
on any given proposition. It Is
time to do a little hurrahing for the
tox populi. Of course, England has
not reached the stags where failure
to consult the will of the people would
be considered altogether foolhardy, aa
In the United States, but this very ex
ample affords ample Illustration of
how well on the way It is progressing.
By the time It becomes a truly rep
resentative form of government it Is
not too 'much to expect that It will
have reached the point And this ex
perience In the House of Lords will be
a large element In effecting the
transition.
Democrats Poorly HanattL
The democrats in congress are at
sea in their plana of procedure. They
have a wool tariff and a cotton tariff
project and others banging fire, but
sre, spparently, without any definite
plan of action on a single proposition.
They have disclosed a decided lack of
coherency In their management and
leadership. Perhaps. If they would
waive tbe opportunity of playing poli
tics with what is left of legislation
and let tbe praise of President Taft
for their attitude toward reciprocity
Inspire them, they would come out of
the present situation more creditably.'
Democrats demand wool revision of
some sort, as do also the insurgent re
publicans, but even at this late day In
the session they seem unable to say
Just what kind of revision they wish.
At least the factions have not screed
on the extent to which they should go.
The. final passage of the reciprocity
bill haa aerved but to confuse, for It
forces s show of handa that threatens
to become embarrassing.
If the fight baa simmered down to
nothing mors than sparring for par
liamentary advantage or political
prestige, then the sooner It Is brought
to a finish the better. -
Polios and Street Car Be form.
Mlnneapolia police, if asked their
advice about legislating the strap
hanger Into hia inalienable rigbte.
would undoubtedly ahaka their beads
despairingly. They have had experi
ences of late that do not make them
enthusiastic reformers of thia sort.
Cp la the Mill .City the council
passed aa ordinance requiring the
atreet railway company to provide
seats for all passeagers and carry nons
who did not have seats. This, of
course, reduced the capacity of the ear
by putting the straps out of business
and necessitated more cars. But at
first the carmen Ignored tha ordi
nance, filled their cars, seats, aisles
and every available standing apace,
and the atrap-hanger hung on. Then
entered the police. Conscience-
pricked, they sallied forth to aee that
tha law was either enforced or Its vio
lators punished, and they arrested, all
told, thirty-three crews, or slxty-eii
carmen.
Now, the carmen must have felt
that their loyalty to the company was
met and It was time for them to look
out for themselves, so they began
passing up crowds of waiting peopls
because tba seats were filled and they
would not permit any more strap
hanging, or refusing to budge If tha
aeats were overflowed. But without
a larger supply of cars and a revised
schedule, this still left the people
and the police holding tha aaxk. Now
the sponsor of this ordinance proposes
that people shall hit a faster gait and
tbe company furnish a two-mlaate
service.
Stilt this offers no relief for the
poor policeman. Whs la to see that
people "move along," or that cars
come every two minutes snd pass on
ss soon as every seat Is filled? Who.
but the poor pollremsn? If they had
the pay-as-you-enter cars In Minneap
olis, the officer's tatk would ie even
worse, for. while they possess enough
advantages to commend them, these
psy-ae- you -enters do not fill up fsst
and during rush hours the policeman
would have a rather lively Job on his
bands enforcing the move-along-no-seat-no-pay
ordinance. There is an
element of Justice In this Ides of seat
ing all passengers, but bow to bring
it about in the bustle and bustle of
aa American rlty Is the puttie.
TJnmiik tbe Ease Deceiver.
In a characteristic appeal for har
mony between warring democrats our
old friend. Edgar Howard, puts the
blame for the recent outbreak upon a
base deceiver, whose work he de
scribes without naming htm. as fol
lows: liamnrton honeatly believe that Met
calfe's resolution was not "ditched by a
trick." He is honest In enfertainlng that
falne belief. Ho wait declrd by a man
who has deceived many other lar men.
la fact, as wa view the situation, nlne
trnlhs of all the trouble between the how eat
democratic workers In Xebratka baa been
caused by that same trouble-breeder who
deceived Mr. HaJTinjrton before, at. and
a1o after tba Grand Island convention.
The only mistake made by Mr. Metcalfe at
Grand Island was bis failure to expose
than and there tho deceiver who deceived
Mr. Harrington. He heivtated to make tbe
exposure, having such hiah regard for the
high office held by tbe deceiver. He suf
fered in silence, when be thonld have
spoken boldly. It be bad been brave to
peak at that moment, the trick and the
man who played the trick would have been
exposed so plainly that an honorable fighter
like Mike Harrington would bare enter-
jtalned and expressed contempt for tbe per
ipretrator of the trick, and the evidence of
!the crookedness would have led to a better
understanding between Harrington and Met-
calfe. and that Grand Island convention
would bave closed with a Joy song of har
monr. rather than with a dirge of discord.
1 In another place he refers to the
! deceiver aa one of the "agents of those
special Interests'' which for years Har
'rington and Bryan hare been fighting,
j and declares that of all the men who
I denounced Bryan from the platform
jat frand Island. Harrington was tbe
! only one "who haa not been, and now
Is, either the secret or open political
tool of those same corporate : in
terests." It la quite possible. In fact, proba
ble, that Edgar Howard knowa what
he is talking about. But why should
he cloak the base deceiver, or so care
fully refrain from unmasking him?
Xame the wretch.
A letter to The Bee from the dis
trict superintendent of the Anti-Saloon
league calls attention to the conflict
! between the state law and the city
ordinance governing the aale of liquor
' by druggists. The common notion Is
that In such cases the state law will
govern, or rather that while tbe city
may place additional restriction and
regulations on the ' sale of liquor, It
cannot take away or suspend any state
law requirements. If it is purely a
matter of statutory Interpretation, a
test case should settle It
The Chicago Evening Post makes
the suggestion that if King George
visits Canada on hia return from India,
he and President Taft meet personally
and give mutual endorsement to the
proposed International arbitration
treaty, thua commending It more
strongly to othes powers. It Is not a
bad suggestion. Of course, they would
probably meet anyway and they might
as well "shake" on this treaty as not
Nebraska's new motor vehicle law
requires automobiles to come to a full

prevented.

1. Harvey W. 'Wiley, pure food cviam
Pioa, deserves to rank ss preeident-emerltut
of tbe " Lon't Worry club.-He preaches
the doctrines of the club and puts them m
Practice, if there U one thing In the world
that does not worry him It .is sn atta-k
from his adversaries Ever since his sdvent
in public office as chief chemist of the De
le, rt men t of Agriculture snd sll through
tls campaigns against adulterated food and
drugs, letting tht other fellow do the worry
ing is the rule he follows.
Tbe chief chemist Is a fighter of force,
skillful In parrying blows snd returning
more than bs takes. When a professor st
Perdu university years ago. be was
charged with neglecting morning prayers,
riding s bicycle snd playing base ball with
the students conduct considered Improper
in one charged with the duty of gliding the
youths of Indiana along paths 4l P'ety
and dignity. To the charge of neglecting
morning prayers he entered a denial:
"guilty he answered to the rest, follow log
his plea with his resignation. Tha trustees
declined ths resignation, snd bs stuck to
ths Job for nine years.
Dr. Wiley's function as chief chemist are
varied. Inside the department, where the
eyes of the public are not upon him except
as such tniervsls as hs takes It Into his
confidence, be Is busy superintending ex
periments to determine whether food pro
ducts sre harmful. Then, In concert with
the legal branch of the government, he gets
after ths adulterator. All the while. In his
capacity as a public lecturer and a man
aho knows how to be Interviewed fotP pub
lication, he is telling tbe people what has
been done, will be done, or ought to be
don.
The testing methods In ths government's
laboratories have been of startling bold
ness. Wiley's young aides oftentimes havs
made themselves 111 for the sake of science
and public health. They eat meat that has
been preserved, to see If It wUI hurt them.
At times a chosen squad will undergo
physical training for a fortnight, perhaps
like a ooUese foot ball team to acquire
the beet possible health for a series of eat
ing tests that might not b conclusive If
tha subjects were not In prim condition.
Late In UOX relates tna New Tork Post
there were rumors that tbe reformer's afV
tacks upon bensoate of soda as a food
preservative would cause bis removal, but
he continued to oppose Its use.
"I can make a living outside. I ruees."
he remarked, when somebody asked If he
wss about to be ousted.
The National Molasaes Refiners associa
tion sent a petition to Washington on De
cember is. IMS. asking for Wiley's removal.
Nothing came of It. In congress speeches
were msde In his defense ar to bensoate of
sods, snd President Roosevelt wss at
tacked for having named the scientific
committee which approved the preservative
over the chemist's head. That was ths
beginning of a long fight In which Wiley
did not win. He held his Job, though,
and caused- many reforms which angered
manufacturers and dealers quit as much
as a victory against bensoate of soda
would have done.
Appearing la DOC before the house com
mittee on Interstate and foreign - com

said:
-Never drink blended whisky. Always
drink It straight and. If It Is too strong,
dilute It with good water. Ths notion
that blended whisky Is merely a mixture
of two or more different kinds la all a
mistake As a matter of fact, blended
whisky Is "simply cheep, bad whisky, doe
tored up wtth spirits."
With that he produced aa outfit of
chemical apparatus, got a bottle of alco
hol, burnt sugar, and other stuff, and
went to work. In five minutes he had a
red liquor ready, and passed It around
among the committee mernhess to be
tested. They took It. tasted, and' smacked
tbeir Hps.
"It Isn't whisky at all." said Wiley. "It
Is the staff that Is often called whisky.
The greater portion of the so-called fourteen-year-old'
whisky Is made In lees than
fourteen minutes by tbe aid of what is
known as "ageing oil.'
"Dr.- TAHey." aald Hepburn, chairman of
the committee, "bave you a government
license to make whisky?"
"No. sir.' was the retort. T don't need
It. I didn't make whisky, as I told you."
Not only has bs admitted inconsistence
about his attitude toward alcoholic bev
erages, but a story has gone the round
that a friend found him eating voraciously :

This Is what his friends found him de

Ths doctor did not deny that the Joke
was en him.
Ona of tha doctor's strong points Is his
ability to tell a good story and to this Is
attributed much of his success In arguing
for departmental appropriations before eon-

money, they say, thee any other effieer
ef the government- Although not ths head
of a department he has been making per
sonal pleas for appropriations for years.

THE SWITCH.
J. M. Lewis In Houston Poet.
Someone got switched todsy bee
ow wnat do you suppose'
Before we tell you w hy let s pause
And wipe our eves and nose
Because this being switched is not
A thing to brig one cheer.
So take your hanky out and blot
Away the trembling tear.
Someone got switched todsy, you fcnev
Home la a lovely place!
Beside the door red roees grow,
And there s a funny face
On every pansy in the b1;
And each look tip snd bees
A love, but little Tousieheed
Oot switched serosa the legs.
I ssw the switch that de!-B the bio
Here s good place to use
A minute tl.l I wipe my ivee
And wipe my ere; because
Of that sad thlr.g whi h tnd today
My htart is filled e-tti P4
And hspttnees is gne ssr.
I love tbe beby so!
The switch is eirhteen Itvbws long.
And thick ss anr straw'
It robbed the baby's day f svjcig;
No mortal p-n sn draw
The woe which came to rr tt bear
What happened to the e-'f.
Fhe put her red tips to rwy ear
And told the tale herself.
Her teeth are like white grs.'i. ?f rice.
Set in two pearly rows
She used them once, she used tfcem twice
On what, do you sui-pee
On sisters aim she d d trie Jtr
"Tes tryln' cf um. dad'"
And that Is why she rot the switch.
And I am feeling bad.
