Through courtesy of our Cans dlan consul, M. A. Hall, our atten tlon has been called to a statement of campaign expenses published by a defeated candidate for the House of Commons In the recent Canadian election, which Is so Interesting that we reprint It In full as follows: ABSTRACT OF EXPKN8E8 INCURRED IM CKNTRK YORK ELECTION SEPTEMBER. 1S11 By or on behalf of H. 11. DEWART, K. C. Postage S 172.70 Printing, typewriting, newspapers, tc Ml. SI Rent of halls, singers, etc Printing and stationery 22.U Automohtta hire 17. SO 53.

The difference between campaign publicity in Canada and campaign publicity in Nebraska Is striking. The candidate In Canada apparently accounts for all he spends In pro moting his election, including oven auto hire and auto tires, automobile upkeep and chauffeurs' wages. This candidate In Canada admits to pay ing over $500 for printing, type writing, newspapers, etc., an amount which would startle a candidate in Nebraska almost into heart failure. The candidate in Canada paid out for postage $172.70, which would carry 17,270 letters at the 1-cent rate or half that finmber If sealed under 2-rent postage. The candi date in Canada paid his own hall rent, paid for singers to entertain the audience, paid his headquarters rent, office expenses, the traveling expenses of his speakers, and sees no reason why he should not let the public know how much he spent for each purpose. The real difference between cam paign publicity In Canada and Ne braska is that in Canada thre Is real publicity. In Nebraska the can didate flies a confusing or unintelli gible statement of his outlay with the county clerk where he hopes no one will see It. In Canada the can didate pays out a few dollars more and prints his statement to his local newspaper as an advertisement. The next Nebraska legislature should en graft the Canadian plan upon our campaign publicity law.. . Ti?ht Gowns and Pocketbooks. The chief of police In Baltimore says the new style of tight-fitting gowns 'women wear leads to a har vest or pickpockets. Women can have no pockets In these clinging garments and must carry all their valuables in handbags, which, the Baltimore chief says, make mighty easy picking for the footpads. Women carry these loose handbags along dark streets and In side places and the expert purse Bnatcher has no difficulty at all In getting sway with them, whereas with the old- time loose-fitting dress women had pockets and. as everybody knows, It requires far more skill than any purse snatcher has ever been known to display to locate a woman's pocket. Of course, in well-ordered cities like Omaha, such a complaint might not count for anything, but In cities where purse snatehers and pick pockets and things of that sort really operate, one can easily see the point- edness of the Baltimore chief's ob servations. In addition to the loss and uneasiness women suffer through such rough, experiences these harvests of street thievery Im pose hardshlpa on the police. But. If this Baltimore chief haa taken up the cudgel against the tight-fitting gown and the accompanying hand bag with any Idea of changing the styles until woman's mistress, Dame fashion, decrees they shall be changed, he certainly haa taken up with a false trail and might as well call off his hounds and go to doing something from which he may hope ror results. The tight gown and the loose purse will stay out their time and when their time Is up they will duly give way for something similar, If not a little more ao. the Plcknock- ets and footpads to the contrary. notwithstanding. The OTcrthadowing Itsue. It Is a relief to learn from a Lin coln newspaper that Congressman John A. Magulre of the Firit k. braska district is leaving for Wash ington, where he will help congress solve all the great problems con fronting us. Incidentally, the statesman-like views of Mr. Magulre on the most Important and pressing subjects of legislation must reassure us for, aa quoted, he says he doubts the wisdom of passing the monetary commissions' currency act, but is ready to take up the tariff schedules. 8hlp subsidy, In his opinion, la "a dead duck." But the really momen tous work which Mr. Magulre is about to tackle In the Interest of the peace, safety and well-being of this nation of 80,000,000 people is th appointment of a cadet to Ann apolis, for which place he has had about thirty applications, and has succeeded la -sifting them down to tour. uniortuuately, the solution TIIK BEE: of the great and Important leglsla live problem will have to wait until Mr. Magulre awards this cad-tahlp Waste of the Railroads. , , If Chief Engineer Fitch of the Chicago Great Western Is anywhere near corYect In declaring that the railroads of this country waste 65 per cent of their annual coal supply, which last year amounted In full to $213,839,000, then L. D. Brandela was not aa far wrong as he might have been In his statement that the railroads wasted $1,000,000 a day In their operation. Mr. Fitch has made his computation as the result of patient research and observation and, being a railroad official, his criticism must be regarded as sym pathetic in character. Surely It will bring results. In ten years Mr. Fitch finds the railroads have more than doubled the cost of their fuel supply. Of course, they have vastly increased their mileage and train ecrvlce, but not In proportion to this other In crease. He is of the opinion that 100 per cent efficiency could not be obtained, but that surely three- fourths might be. At any rate, his finding seta before the railroada a real task and puts a little different color on some of the complalnta tbey have been making as to the Imposition of certain legal and Ju dicial restrictions, as well as the un certainty occasioned by constant agitation. Bo long aa they are posi tively wasting more than $100,000- 000 a year in one Item alone,-they may not hold themselves entirely blameless In the confused econom ical situation existing. In this same connection, though under quite different circumstances and date, President Delano of the Wabaah recently said: "There is not a railroad man who does not realize the necessity of economy." He was uiacuaning anegea narasnips en dured under the Sherman law and the Interstate Commerce commis j t ... . sion. He declared that the most promising field for effecting econ omy on the railroads was in reduc ing train aervlce, but the commis sion's Interpretation of the law for bidding "midnight Injunctions" atood In the way. Between New York and Chicago five routes main tain Blxty-hour schedules for freight, while a schedule of twelve to four teen hours slower would do but he said no road, dared put In such a schedule because of competition. Mr. Delano, thinks, . hero-. 1s one place where 'competition hurts more than It helps. Possibly he is right. But when we go to talking of the most promising field of conoray, atten tion naturally will be diverted somewhat to the matter of fuel. Only think what aavlng might be effected In all auch fields and then how much smoother the railroada and the government m(ght get on together. a Sam Blythe affect? to believe that Bryan could beat Taft next year. In hla calculation, Mr Blythe evidently baa not conaldered that Underwood, Champ Clark, ' Harmon and a few other "atand-byers" have any friends, at all. It will be noticed that Mr. Car negie included the Inventor of the water meter In his list of twenty great men. Left to the vote of the average householder, this man would never land. In announcing hla candidacy for United .States senator, "Billy" Thompson throws Mr. Bryan a big bouquet of posies. "Billy's" mod esty forbids him to say he believes in reciprocity. The difference between the creo sote wood block paving combine and other paving combines that have been operating hereabouts, Is that the wood block people have been caught with the goods. The date for Omaha's commission plan primary la April 2, which meana that the filings for commis sioner must be la by March 2. Not too early to look around for eligible candidates.

Very good reasons exist why the rebels do not wish anv deallnrs with the on man hope of th Manchus. Th Chinese know him. His record as a betrayer on two notable oc casions are matters of history In that country. In 1SSI, while Chinese minister to Korea and dictator of Its policies, he oacKed up the Koreans against the Jap anese until the latter resented by force the action ef the Koreans, whereupon man deserted his guns and secretly fled to tnina.
