Winners and losen.
In every political battle there must
be losers as well as winners. . Un
fortunately it is hard to make the
losers realize that the conditions
would be reversed if the outcome had
been the other way. We suggest this
as food for thought by the followers
of Roosevelt who would have expected
the followers of Taft to have fallen
in line promptly had the colonel won
out at Chicago. Let them try to
Imagine If they can what they would
have been thinking and saying if the
nomination had gone to Roosevelt
and it was the Taft people who were
talking about a third party and re
fusing to accept the party standard
bearer. It is a poor rule that does
not work both ways and it is a poor
politician who cannot be a good loser
as well as a good winner.
The Labor Leaders' Case.
It seems unfortunate that the case
against Messrs. Gompers, Mitchell
and Morrison, executive officers of
the American Federation of Labor,
should have been permitted to drag
so long in the courts without final
determination. It has given more
room for sinister criticism. Of course'
there Is nodenying that a lot of per
sonal acrimony has found its way into
the case. The labor leaders are confi
dent the United States supreme court,
which reversed the court of the Dis
trict of Columbia before on the ground
that the contempt proceedings before
Judge Wright, were improperly insti
tuted, will decide favorably to their
cause again. The issue involves the
principle of free speech and press and
is fundamental enough to attract
general interest, and far too grave
to have been mixed up with acri
monious personal relations. What
ever the outcome is, it is to be hoped
the final decision will soon be made.
Good Hot Weather Advice.
The Bee is presenting on this page
for a few days some Very pertinent
and valuable information as to the
care of t'ue person and the home dur
ing hot weather. The instruction
comes from Health Commissioner
Connell, who, with thirty years of
medical practice and several as the
city's health officer, is well equipped
for the service he was invited to ren
der. We hope our readers will follow
every word with care. Very often
one's condition through the year de
pends on how well he cares for him
self in the hot season. It should be
as easy to get through the hot weeks
in good physical health as through
other portions of the year, that is, as
easy if one exercises prudence in his
habits of living. Excesses of any sort
are more dangerous then than at
other ; times. We invite the closest
attention to this series of, scientific
articles, i' " ' . - '

' Ihe South Still ComervatiTe.
;. The south has always Voted for
Bryan and probably will again if he
is the .nominee of,' the democratic
party, but the south has never, really
been Bryanic or radical In its political
predilections. It has remained con
servative, is conservative now, as is
shown by Us only candidate for presi
dential . honors, .. Underwood, even
condemned by Bryan for bis ultra
conservatism; by Its adherence to
Parker in the preliminary convention
skirmish, by all its outward actions in
the national convention, In Congress
and elsewhere. As we say, the south
has voted for Bryan, and will again if
he is named, but because the south
is conservative, too conservatively
democratic to change and not be
cause it is radical or Bryanic. It Is
simply a case of Caesar and Rome
with the south. It is hopeful, how
ever, to recall that Mr. Taft suc
ceeded four years ago in cutting
deeply into soma of the historic em
bankments of democracy in southern
states. The best thlnfe that could
ever happen to the south, for its own
sake, would be a complete breaking
up of the "solid south," for that
would put it on the political map,
where It would really have to bo
reckoned with.
Dehorned Cows and Disarmament.
Jenkln Lloyd .Jones resorts to the
bucolic illustration of dehorned cows
to prove the working wisdom and ef
fectiveness of disarmament. He is a
farmer, by avocation, not vocation.
' "We farmers," he says, face
tiously, "have learned tho wisdom of
dehorning our cows. The horn Is a
relic of the cow's barbaric days, and
utterly useless in her civilization
state. Its removal has completely
changed the political economy of the
barnyard."
Perhaps, but Dr. Jones will admit
that it would be unfair to the de
horned cows to place them in a barn
yard with cows that were not de
horned. Despite the advanced stage
of bovine civilization, disagreements
will arise, and when they do, the
cow without the horns gsts the worst
of the argument. ,
. Against universal disarmament,
little may be said, but the very fact
that it has been impossible to get
the nations to agree on universal
disarmament would make it hazard
ous for one power to abolish Its
weapons of defense So long as others
held onto theirs.' The fact that uni
versal disarmament . cannot be
achieved right now, argues nothing
against the principle and in nowise
discourages, v or should discourage,
the movement for world peace.
The case of Mr, Harrow seems to
have been all but lost In the shuffle.
CARE OF THE BABY
3y R, w. Connell,
(By Request).
This Is one of the most Important things
for the mother to know.; Much has been
written and many ta'lks given on the
subject and yet how many of those who
care for these little tots seem wholly
Ignorant and careless as to what should
be. and more especially what should not
be done In caring for them. '
The most Important factor at any time.
but especially In hot weather. Is their
food. I will not attempt to discuss the
different artificial foods for Infants, as
each Individual case must be regulated
by the attending physician when neces
sity ; requires this kind of food. - By
artificial food I mean all kinds except
In the mother's milk, which la the only
natural and safe food for the Infant. It
Is a shame and a disgrace that there are
to many mothers resorting to artificial
food on one. pretext or another, when
they could and should provide the nour
ishment which Is the only safe and na
tural sustenance to give their offspring.
If their babies should not live on account
of artificial feeding, when the mother
Jias plenty of her own milk to feed It.
am I Impertinent Is asking that mother,
who caused your child's death?
There are some rules adaptable to all
cases of artificially fed babies. Be regu
lar In your feeding. (This applies , to
breast as well as artificial feeding. Al
ways prepare the food fresh at each feed
ing. Never prepare It In the evening for
the whole night's feeding and then put
It In some place to keep It warm ready
for use; as food prepared in this way
only causes fermentation and the bac
teria or germs to multiply and develop
many thousands times. The extra care
and trouble to get up and prepare food
fresh each" time.' will be nothlna com
pared with ; the extra work required In
nursing your baby made sick In this
way, back to health again.
If cow's milk is used, great care should
be exercised to see that It is kept cool,
tightly covered, away from all odors and
dust. If you have. any doubt as to Its
being fresh or free from contamination
of any kind, you should pasteurise it. (Do
not boll It, as that Injures the milk and
makes It hard' to digest.) You ean do
home pasteurizing easily. In the follow
ing manner: Take a tin pall high enough
to hold the bottle of milk standing on
a saucer Inverted, fill jh pail with water
as high as the milk in bottle.. Let the
water come to a boll with cap on bottle
loosened.. Then Immediately remove from
fire and let stand in the hot water twenty
minutes. Fasten cap and cool milk as
toon as possible by setting bottle In cool
water for a few minutes and then In the
GOSSIP ABOUT ARMY AFFAIRS
Trend of Events Outlined by Army and Navy Register.
Sara-eons Quarters.
An interesting question has arisen in
the War department concerning the right
of a medical officer, attached to one of
the army transports, to receive commu
tation of quarters, and the comptroller
has been called on to render a decision.
Hitherto these officers have received this
allowance on the theory that the proper
station in each case was the borne port
of thetransport, and that the voyage of
the vessel was- of , the nature of tem
porary duty away from the station where
were furnished quarters in kind. It Is
held by some of the military authorities
that the officer while on board the trans
port is furnished quarters quite as much
as he la, or would be, at an army post,
and that, as a matter of fact, he makes
use of such quarters, not only while on
board the vessel during a voyage, but
during the period the transport la in port.
Standardising the Flag.
A board representing all the executive
departments of the government has mad
a report concerning the standardization
of the American flags. An executive
order will shortly be issued on this sub
ject prescribing the else of the various
emblems, and especially the garrison, post
and storm flags. It is Intended that all
national flags and union jacks shall con
form exactly to the proportions of the
standard accepted In certain cases. The
colors carried by troops will be the sizes
now adopted by the army and navy. In
this connection It is interesting to observe
that Senator Heyburn has submitted reso-
lutions calling on the secretary of the
navy and ths secretary of war, - respec
tively, to Inform the senate "whether or
not at any time or under any circum
stances any flag, emblem ' or banner is
raised above the-B tars and, Stripes on
any vessel, building or ground or, in the
case of the army, any fort or encampment
under the Jurisdiction of the Navy and
War departments." It seems to have sur
prised Mr. Heyburn that the "church
flag" is placed above the national emblem
on shipboard, a Custom which lis pre
vailed in all navies where that flag is
lecognized.'
Aridtttoaal , Chaplains. " ,
There appears to be no inclination In
congress to enact the pending legislation
which provides for two additional chap
lains for the army. This bill, Introduced
by Representative Sulier early In the
first session, is understood to have orig
inated with New York people of the
Hebrew faith, which has no represen
tation among army Chaplains at present
One of the most animated bearings which
occured before the house military com
mittee had to do with this measure.
Rival, or at least warring, factions ex
pressed their views, and the hearing
was enough in Itself to discourage favor
able action on the bill. There Is, in
the first place, practically no disposition
In either house or senate to add to the
number of chaplains, although that would
probably have to be don if the Hebrew
faith is- to have representation in the
corpsj for the reason that as vacancies
occur by, retirement or other 'casualty, a
clergyman of the same church as the
chaplain whose commission as an officer
of the active list is "vprMed Is appointed.
By this means each denomination now
represented by chaplains in active service
is maintained In proportion to other de
nominations. There is nothing to tndteate
any change In this system, although a
modification is . possible-whenever suf
ficient pressure la exercised to introduce
In the list of chaplains a clergyman of
a church which is not or ha not been
represented there. It was evidently real
ized by those responsible for the bill
providing for two additional chaplains
that there would be less contusion and
conflict If they sought legislation which
would add to the number of chaplain
rather .than to attempt to get an un
represented church or denomination Into
the list '

for a few hours during the day, but every
minute during the twenty-four hours,
the Infant should breathe nothing but the
purest and freshest air. It's sleeping

open air in ' a' shady place, protected
from sun, dust and files. This can easily
be done with mosquito netting and three
or four chairs. If it sleeps indoors, have
all windows in the room open.
Give the baby a tub bath every morning
at a regular time,-' one hour after' eating.

some time. Several weeks i ago the
president ' evidently, signified his willing
ness to send to the senate the nomina
tions of Brigadier General W. W. Woth
erspoon to be a major general and Brig
adier General Clarence R. Edwards, chief
of the Insular bureau,' and Colonels G.
F. Chase and E. J. McClernand, of the
cavalry arm, ' to be brigadier' generals.
Such appointments would have permitted
Mr. Taft to appoint two more brigadier
generals before March 4, 1913, inasmuch
a Colonel Chase retires on July 29
and Colonel McClernand will retire oh
December 29 of this year. The appoint
ments have pot ben made and It Is
surmised that more or. less politics haa
entered into the issue, and now that the
senate is practically in recess ( until after
July 1, there will be no announcement
of the appointments before that date, by
which time the national conventions at
Chicago and Baltimore will have served
their purpose. The vacancy at the head
of the adjutant general's corps also con
tinues to be unfilled since the retirement
of General Hall. The three officers who
are most often- mentioned and from
among whom the choice seems likely to
be made are Colonel T. O. S. Helstand,
the senior officer of that grade In the
adjutant general's department; Colonel
George Andrews, and Colonel Henry P.
McCain. The last named officer is still
under orders to proceed to Manila, but
these have been suspended until an ap
pointment of ths adjutant general has
been made, and In the meantime Colonel
McCain is acting in that capacity. Colo
nel Helstand' s leave of absence, granted
him on his return from Manila, expired
on June 14. It was understood that, he
was under order to make a tour of in
spection of the recruit depots at Colum
bus Barracks, 0., Jefferson Barracks,
Mo., Fort Logan, Colo.. Tort McDowell,
CaL, and Fort Slooum, N. Y. Colonel
Helstand would have proceeded on this
duty on his return from the Philippines
but he brought to Washington some Im
portant messages to the president, and on
his arrival hers leave of absence was
granted him.
