Natural causes are the only ones

Incident. :
That is to say, the present admin
istration las written "N. O." across
Mr. Morgan's license to the Tennesee
Coal aud Iron, as Cartoonist Ma
cauley pictures it.
Considering that Jt has four out
of the twelve candidates for ata'.e of
fice on the two big tickets, Uncoln
surely has lis nerve in trying to shut
out the oaly Omaha man who Is up.
Keorpinitinf the Tobacco Trot.
A layman might Rot the notion
from reading extracts of the plan
that the proposed method for reor
ganizing the Tobarco trust was fair
and rafe to both skies and such aa to
restore the competitive sysUm of
trade, for the statement appears
lurid nnd quite Mrong as to that on
certain points. Kxperta, however,
ntnong whom are Independent to
bHero dealers, producers and their
attorneys, strongly oppope the plan,
nllenltiR that It will neither prevent
monopoly nor permit competition.
Attorney (i neral Wlckersham la not.
entirely aa'lsdei with 'thr plan,
thctiKh he does not condemn It In
tolo.
It forms unfortunate that, there Is
room for such wide and sharp dlf
fereiire of opinion, but the attorney
general submits some further condi
tions, which, if compiled with, he be
lieves will come ii g near us possible
to effecting the desired end. It Is
doubtful, as Mr. VI kcrshftin points
out, whether the precise effect of nny
theory or set of theories can be de
termined by anyone beforehand. But
It dors seem as If dlatrlbutlon of
stock and complete separation of
managements and revenues, of sales
and purchasing agencies, clerical
forces and capital stock would et
near to restoring the preceding
Ktntus.
Of course, It la not these stlpula
tlona with which the? Independents
have found fan!'.. They are r.ot In
tho plan of reorganization as it now
stands. Added to all the conditions
the attorney general Insists upon, Is
a request for an Injunction prohibit
ing apoclfkially the recreation of the
combination or any similar combina
tion. That is thrown in as a clincher
and, whllo tho Tobacco people have
heartily embraced tho original reor
ganization plan, they have not yet
approved the amendment! offered,
through Mr. Taft 'a attorney general,
nor are they likely to, voluntarily.
The Canal and Hawaii.
The operation of the Panama canal
undoubtedly will benefit the Ha
walian Islands. Judge Sanford 11.
Dolo, former president of the Ha
waiian republic, Is confident this
benefit will 'be .very pronounced upon
the business and social Interests of
America's mid-sea possession. In an
Interview wlthi a Boston paper.
Judge Dole says:
Many panacnger oblpa plying between
the Atlantic and oriental countries will
Hop th-ra ui oidar to Rive tliclr pa.
tui kits a day or two on shore. Other
thlpa will stop there for coal and aup
piles and aoind for telsraphlo conv
municatlon. (Thn the dry dock which
rho I "n I ted States la building at Pearl
harbor, which will be open to merchant
Ship, will undoubtedly bring many ships
to Itjnolulu for repairs.
All this Is obvious enough and the
effect will be to stlmuUto Industry at
Honolulu and Illio, the two principal
cities. The revival In time should be
come very considerable and If so It
will add vastly to the drawing powers
of the Islands.
Hawaii Is prosperous aa things are,
according to ex-Prealdent Dole, and
It also appeara to be quite conserva
tlve in the. tone of Its Industries,
When asked If the Planters' associa
tion, headed by the so-called big "5"
companies control tho Islands, Judge
Dole said:
' The sugar companies have a large In
fhionce. They aaalat In the financial ex
pvnaes of elections fur the aide that
might be called the conservative one.
Hometlinea the party which has their
ympathy and support carries the elec
tions sometime fulls. This Influence of
this control, not to use the word "domi
nation,". Is. on the whole, to the ad
vantuKe of the Islands, although It la
probably true that In some reapects their
interests conflict with the public Inter
ests. .This aeema to be an exceedingly
frank statement of the situation. It
will not be aurprlslng, however, that
Judge Dole, whose life has been
wrapped up bo completely in tho de
velopment of Hawaii, should be an
ultra-conservative.
Proving Too Much.
Ou amiable democratic friends are
gleefully pointing to the registration
shortage In the Third ward as Justi
fying their loud alarms, and proving
conclusively that they have prevented
a great republican conspiracy to pad
the vote there through fictitious
names. .
Hut If the Third ward registered
between 400 aud 500 leas than last
year, what does it really prove? It
proves that laBt year the democratic
machine inflated the vote in the
Third ward to that extent In the in
terest of Mayor "Jim" for governor
and Mr. Hitchcock for senator. That
ia exactly what The Bee charged at
the time, and followed up by expos
ing several nesta of voters colonised
by the democratic bosses.
If the democrats have this year de
sisted from their fraudulent prac
tices, we congratulate them on their
reform, but we see no reaaon for
them, thus self-convicted, to try to
unload their shame. upon the repub
licans. If the deficit 'in the Third ward
tbla year proves anything. It proves
that the democrat perpetrated rank
fraud in last year's registration, and
as tbe statute of limitations baa not
yet rin, and the prosecuting machin
ery is all lu democratic hand, there
Is no good reason why they ahould
not begin prosecuting themselves at
once.
Certainly, there Is no good reason
why decent voters of Omaha should
approve "and endorsa these demo-
TUK HKK: OMAHA,
cratlc frauds by voting the ticket
named by the same democratic
bosses.
Safety Ap-liaace Decision.
Whether, as suggested, the su
preme court's ruling that obliges all
railroads to observe the federal
tafefy appliance act foreshadows
complete control of the railroads of
the country by tbe Interstate Com
merce commission, It cannot be
doubted that the tendency Is In that
direction, and yet there havo been
exceptions to the rule, notably In the
rase of tbe employers' liability act,
where tho court has held for state
rather than federal control.
Lul tli's Is a big qucptlon yet to
he fully threshed out, this cuienUon
of federal or stute control of rail
road Bc-paratlon of Interstate! and
Intrastate traffic. In this particular
case at hand, neither traffic rates, ns
wo understand It, are Involved nor
directly affected by tbe ruling of
the piifoty nppllancc! net.
Quite apart, however, from the
hnsic Issue of stale or federal con
trol, the public Is vitally concerned
In a ruling by tlio federal supreme
court that compel the moBt complete
Installation of safety devices or ap
pliances on the part of all railroads,
and It would seem, for uniformity's
sake, federal control would produce
results swifter than state control.
Tho railroads, themselves, would
naturally prefer this, for as to safety
appllancea In particular, It would be
far easier for them to obey one cen
tral authority Instead of forty-six or
eight.
The County Judge.
Never In the hUtory of Dougla
county ha the office of county judge,
which is the probnte court In which
estates of all deceased citizens are
administered, been run In as busi
nesslike a manner, and completely
free from graft, aa it has been during
recent yeara under County Judge
Leslie. There baa been no scandal
attached to the office during his in
cumbency, and Judge Leslie Is prop
erly to be elevated to the district
bench.
Tbe Importance of the office i of
county Judge requires that there
shall he no step backward. Tho place
ought to go to a tried and trusted
lawyer of level headed Judgment, and
real responsibility, and the candidate
presented by the republicans in the
person of Judge Bryce Crawford pos
sesses these qualifications In eminent
degree. On tho Justice bench, nnd
aa police magistrate, Judge Crawford
has. demonstrated hla ability, and,
what la more, has satisfied every one
of his thorough honesty and impar
tiality. People who want to make
sure that estatea that pass through
probate will be conscientiously ad
ministered, and scrupulously ac
counted for, will vote for Judge
Crawford.
In the belief that the renents should
be fairly distributed over the state muny
democrat will vote for Mr. Lyford, the
only candldute of either party residing
outnlde of Doug-la and Ijncastor coun
ties. Lincoln's sincerity In wlchlng to
Rive the office' to the- state ran ho
proved in no other way than by throwing
a largo democratic, aa well n republican,
vote for Mr. Lyford Lincoln Journal.
Evidently tho size of Lincoln's
politics la too email to Include the
only candidate for state office run
ning on either ticket, who Uvea in
Omaha. Theirs la a dangerous j?;ime
to play when there are so many can
dldatea for state offices residing in
Lincoln. If Nebraska people should
get the habit of throwing everything
to the atate, Lincoln and Omaha
would find themselves both in the
Joint attitude or holding the sack.
It ia aald that the supreme court
decision foreshadow annihilation of
Jurisdiction of atate railway commis
sions over Interstate common car
riera, which would practically put the
atate railway commissions out of
business. The competition to con
nect with the pay-roll by being
elected to membership on our state
railway commission, however, will
not be called off.
The democrats have found their
combine controlling the county board
so profitably politically that they are
pulling every string to rescue it from
threatened disintegration. The bell
wether of the combine did not have
the nerve to stand for re-election,
but his chief lieutenant thinks he can
pull it across, if be can only fool
em.
The Treasury department is being
swamped with paior money people
are sending in for fear of microbe.
If that apprehension ever strike
Messr. Rockefeller. Carncglo aud
Morgan, the government will need to
erect a new treasury building.
Mr. Pryan has a chance now to
use hia democratic congressional ex
hibit in the Third district a an ob
ject lesson from which to draw a
moral about the corrupt influence of
the limitless use of money In politi
cal campaigns.
What about the moral misfit on
your democratic t'eket, Senator
Hitchcock. Aren't you going io warn
people against him tbe same as you
have warned them against the unfit
republican scliool bourd candidate?
Crelgbton College Is a bne educa
tional Institution and one we are all
proud of. Dut still, that is no rea
son why It should be the whole
democratic party lu this ballwlck.

Bryan, Hitchcock, Dahlman & Co.
Bloux City
does not,
The Om. ha World-Herald
concedo that Mr. Bryan la to be
honored by the democrats of Ne
braska with a seat In the democratic
national convention of 1912, but It Is un
reserved In It Judgment that "the next
democratic national convention is to be
of the most exciting character." It would
be aa well for the World-Herald to get
Into the open with referenre to a matter
of such Interest In Its stute and In the
country at large. Mr. Bryan has given
notice in the plainest spend thut bo is
cand.datc for a seat in tho convention,
snd be has declared, a If recognizing
tl.e existence of home opposition, that If
the democrats of his state refuse to place
him on the delegation he will attend the
convention anyway. If there Is n fiaht
on Mr. Bryan In his homo state It would
seem a violation of democratic principle
to niuJie the fight from ambush.
The World-Herald proceeds to say, as
If by way of explanation cf the antici
pated excitement In the convention, that
"there will be at least five candidates be
fore the convention, all of whom will
have backing from the very first." There
may be more that five, and to reduce the
field to that number will Involve broken
promises, but say tho number Is to bo
five. "They are," the World-Herald says,
"Harmon, Wilson, Folk, Marshall and
Champ Clork." It will be noticed by the
critical reader that the names are nut
given In alphabetical order. The conclu
sion may not be far wrong that they are
given In the order of preference. On this
hypothesis there I deep significance In
the fact that the name of Harmon leada
all the rest. Mr. Bryan will notlco that.
As a man of discernment and as a man
Intimately acquainted with condition and
relations in Nebraska, he cannot fall to
notice with some rising of suspicion,
thjt the name of Harmon is given the
post of honor. I'ossibly a key is pro
vided to the energetic declaration of Mr.
Bryan in hla address lit the Nebraska
campaign of thl year that he will be in
the convention of next year, whether
or no.
Mr. Bryun himself ha made It clear,
through his Commoner and otherwise,

dacy. Tho election fell to Chester H.
Aldrlch, republican. The result was dis
quieting, ond Mr. Dahlman still lives.
Does Senator Hitchcock find that he is
not In position to say a kind word for
Mr. Eryan? Does the senator fear that
Intimate political association with Mr.
Bryan would imperil a second term In
the si nate of the t'nlted States? Mr.
Bryan's course was not approved by what
may be termed the liquor Interest of bis
state. Are the liquor Interests disposed
to put Mr. Bryan down and out? If so.
Is Senator Hitchcock In such situation
that he fears to Intervene In Behalf of
h'.s old friend, philosopher and guide?
The game of politics is selfish and too
often cruel. Can it be possible that back
of all is a plan for a potential Dahlman
Hitchcock machine for the dominance of
democratic politics In the city of Omaha
an tho state of Nebraska?
Mr. Bryan Is entitled to a fair show,
to an open field and to civilized warfare.
If thought of peace Is to be dismissed
and a fight Is inevitable. , The appeal In
the state of Nebraska Is necessarily to
the people In this particular instance to
the democratic people.. There Is no oc
casion, to fear thai Mr. Bryan will be
taken by surprise, and the first evidence
that he la on guard comes In his reiter
ated announcement In this campaign that
he Is a candidate for delegate to the dem
ocratic national convention. t
The Omaha World-Herald should trust
the . people really and fully. .

THE AFTER CLAP.
Oh. say, did you go
To the gorgeous 1-and show,
Where the big apples shine
And the big peaches glow?
Ami did you remark
On the size of the fruit 1.
Did you open your eyes?
Did the sight make you mute?
Did you see in the booths
All thoso product of wonder?
Did you think the producers
on their land made a blunder?
Did yon see the alfalfa
Just like It was growing.
And read of the crops 1
That aro yours for the sowing?
Doou know that for you.
With your strength and your grit
There's a fortune in land r
If you rustle for HT
And when It has gone.
Can you now fail to guess
That this Land show of ours
Was a howling success?
Omaha. BAYOLL NE TRELE.
