TAFT HONOR GUEST AT
I MUSICAL FESTIVAL
PHILADELPHIA, July 2.-A grand
festival concert participated in by thou
sands of members of the societies consti
tuting the Northeastern Saengerbund,
with the president and Mrs. Taft as the
guests of honor, was the crowning event
tonight on today's program of the twen
ty-third Saengerbund festival.
When the president and Mrs. Taft
reached Broad street station at 6 o'clock
they were greeted by a German song of
welcome sung by a large chorus. Disre
garding his usual custom, the president
walked through the crowd of spectators
to his automobile. As the president and
his wife entered the auditorium the
chorus of 6,000 trained male voices sang
the "Star Spangled Banner."
President Taft addressing the Saenger
bund tonight said in part
"This meeting is for the promotion of
that art which perhaps contributes more
to the happiness and enjoyment of life
than any other that is the art of music.
The public tests which you have culti
vated in such -associations as this and
in your presentation of the compositions
and songs of the great masters, have
educated the public at large, and what
Is even more Important, have widened the
means of making happiness. But while
the educational artistic Influences of such
musical feats are of the highest import
ance, there is another fact in respect
to such a national society and such
gatherings as this that forces Itself on
the intelligent observer. The great num
ber of people that first settled this
country were English and many of the
popular characteristics due to that orig
inal settlement have continued. Amortg
them is one which the American people
are fast losing, but which remains still
true of our English cousins that of tak
ing their pleasure sadly.
"The German people have for centuries
had an advantage over the English peo
ple in this regard, and in no way have
they shown It so much as through the
Instrumentality of the singing societies."

NEBRASKA GETS GREAT RAIN
Entire State and Kansas Soaked One
to Four Inches.
IS THE MOST GENERAL IN YEAES
In Many Sections the Welcome Fall
Crimttnaee All Man t Omaha la
About , toe Only Place
Missed.
Bat one or twice during the last year
ha there been a rain that was so gen
eral over Omaha territory and the coun
try to the north and south as the one
that fell Monday night and it has been
r.ionths since there has been a rain
where heavy precipitation was so evenly
distributed.
Along the Missouri there was a narrow
strip where the precipitation was only
a trace, but from points twenty to thirty
miles back and thence on to the moun
tains. It was a regular downpour. Ap-'
parently the rain swept in from the east
slope of the Rocky mountains. InyWyo
ming and Colorado, it commenced early
yesterday afternoon and moving east,
the rain struck Nebraska during the eve
ning, continuing in many places all night.
On the Northwestern, from Valentine
west to Gordon, tor more than 100 miles
through the sand hill country, while the
rain fell in. sheets for more than foir
hours and in places aggregate close to
Ave Inches, there was no damage done.
On the east end of the Black Hills line
of the Northwestern, Fremont seems to
have been about the eastern limit of the
heavy rain. There there was a fall of
one-half inch, but west of there and as
far out as Long Pine the precipitation
was around three-fourths and one Inch,
exceeding this at many points- That
this rain was general over all of the
north portion of the state is borne out
by the fact that from Hartlngton west
to Bonesteel an inch was recorded at
many points, while all along the Bone
steel extension, from Foster to Winner,
S. D., a distance of 15S miles, the reports
show from one-half to one inch.
Over the entire area along the North
western, from" Fremont southwest .to
Superior, near the Kansas line. It
rained nearly all night, the reports Indi
cating 'a rainfall . of from one-half to
one inch.
Rains Many Honrs.
Along the Union .Pacific there was a
light rain from Fremont to Central City,
but west of the last named place and
over main line territory to the west line
of the state it rained hard for several
hours. From North Platte to Sidney,
more than 200 miles, the , precipitation
ranged around one inch to one and one
half inches, ' while from 'North Platte
east to Grand Island it was close, to an
inch.
From Kearney to Northport on the
Union Pacific's Platte river branch there
was a heavy rain the entire distance. In
many places exceeding an inch. From
Grand Island nearly all the way south
east to St Joseph there was a fairly good
rain. ' Over long stretches of country It
was a steady downpour for two to four
hours, while in other localities there were
heavy showers.
The Kansas territory of the Union Pa
clfic got a much needed bath. ' In' that
section it rained all night, and from Ellis
west to the Colorado line a number of
places reported two 'inches.
On the Burlington there was rain every
where in Nebraska, but lightest on the
Omaha division, where the minimum was
one-fourth and the maximum one-half
inch.- On the Lincoln division the range
of precipitation was from one-fourth to
one-half inch, the heaviest being up in
the sandhill country around Burwell. All
over the Alliance division there was a
fall of from one-half to one inch, while
over the Wymore division the reports
show better than half an inch at most of
the points.
The country specially favored and where
rain was sadly needed was over the Mc-
Cook division. Here there was rain every
where, Minden, Benkleman, Red Cloud,
Holdrege, Arapahoe and a dozen or so
other points sending in reports of an
inch to one and one-half Inches.
Over the Burlington's Kansas lines
heavy rains covered the entire territory,
the western part of the state reporting
one and two inches.
IteBeesLetterBox"
Hard to Keep Trace of Him.
ELM CREEK. Neb.. July l.-To the
Editor of The Bee: Through your col
umns I would like to have Governor
Aldrich explain why he has deserted the
cause of progressive republicanism. He
was one of the seven governors that
went to Chicago to urge Roosevelt to
make the race, pledged Roosevelt his
support, then went to the convention to
help direct the fight in person. Now that
Roosevelt is defeated the governor comes
back as meek as a lamb and announces,
through his official mouthpiece, the
State Journal, that the regulars were
good enough for him.
Here is the governor's Idea of progres
sive republicanism. Should he have' been
successful in nominating Roosevelt, no
doubt Roosevelt would have carried the
state of Nebraska and swept the governor
back into office to succeed himself. The
democrats want tariff for revenue only.
Aldrich is a progressive republican for
office only. 'Now that Taft Is the nomi
nee, Aldrich is a regular; if Roosevelt
had been nominated he would be a "rip
snorting" progressive, as he calls it.
Why did you not stay with your ship,
governor? Roosevelt went down with his
ship, wtlh colors flying. You were one of
his subordinate officers by choice, but
when the ship was sinking you had bust,
ness back at the capital Now you de
clare yourself a regular. What do you
mean by "regular?"- Regular politician?
Or regular deserter, when the cause for
which you laborer so long was lost?
While we are not In sympatny with Vic
tor Rosewater's stand at the convention,
we admire his' nerve for sticking by the
big ship in troubled waters, while our
governor saw feasible to take a lifeboat
in the same sea, and leave Captain Roose
velt, First Mate Hadley and Second Mate
Johnson to beach the wrecked hull of
the ship that they imagined was real.
"He who fights and runs away will live
to fight another day," and the slogan
reads at present, progressive, regular,
standpatter, for office only.
Governor, I think you will stand about
as much show of being elected under
such dilatory tactics as your captain did
of being nominated at Chicago. You boast
of meeting the really big men of the
party and believe the constitution reads
that all men are created free and equal.
If you want to see real, natural big men,
governor, go to the country where men
are laboring in the field to produce corn,
wheat, oats, etc., to feed the people of
the nation. They are the real big men.
J. P. MORRIS.
Note: It is only fair that Mr. Morris
should know that Governor Aldrich has
announced that he is again for Roosevelt
CANADA PLANS RECIPROCITY

DETECTIVE TELLS OF
HABITS OF JUDGE
SEATTLE, July 2. The habits of
United States District Attorney Judge
Hanf ord were again the subject of In
quiry today by the judiciary subcommit
tee of the house of representatives! A.
Nordskog,' until a few weeks ago an
employe of a detective agency, was on
the stand most of the afternoon.
"Judge Hanford in the evening Invaria
bly would go to the Rainier club from
the federal building," said Nordskog. "He
would leave the club about ( o'clock.
when he would walk down Marion street
to Second avenue and enter a bar, where
he would take one drink.. Sometimes he
would go the round of three bars during
the dinner hour. I remember that once
or twice, after having gone the round
during the evening hours, he went to at
least three bars after 11 o'clock before
going home for the night"
The witness told of following Judge
Hanford late the night of August 29 s
he walked home in the rain. He said
the judge stopped several 'times during
the long walk to lean against a building
and a lamp post
Outburst of a Bryan Imitator.
RIVERTON, Neb., June 29.-T0 the Ed
itor of The Bee: I have just read what
purports to be a telegram from the Dahl
man club of Omaha to the delegates of
the Baltimore convention, now in ses
sion. It is filled with utterances that
cause one to blush with shame for the
brazenness of its attack upon Nebraska's
great commoner, W. J. Bryan. It reflects,
too, the character the disreputable char
acterof the men who constitute the Jim
Dahlman club of Omaha, for no club,
however steeped In rancor and prejudice,
constituted by gentlemen would wanto
advertise Omaha or Nebraska in the man
ner they in their disreputable manner
have done. If this is the best that Omaha
can do to put itself right In the eyes of
the state; if it is the highest mark of at
tainment It can reach in the perpetua
tion of political organizations and men,
it is high time that the rest of the state
of Nebraska analyze the situation in it..
true light and apply the method that wll!
put a check upon such Ignominy as It is
at spasmodic stages Inflicting upon the
whole state. Last year the business in
terests of Omaha spent $2,000 in an at.
tempt to entertain the newspaper men of
the state and to gain their good will and
friendship. It Is preparing to even outdo
Its former effort of entertainment for
the visiting brethren at the next session
of Nebraska editors. Why this effort
this expense to gain our good graces
when continuously there comes up from
Omaha this Dahlman affront to 85 per
cent of the editors of the state?
Dahlman- and Dahlmanism Is a stench
in the nostrils of a great majority of
the Nebraska newspaper men. If, how
ever, Omaha, through Jim Dahlman, de
sires to flaunt Its wares and its low
bred demeanor before the universe, then
let it not expect any further co-opera
tion from Nebraska editors. As for me,
I have mentally resolved to cease boost
ing for Omaha and shall refrain from at
tending any press association meet in
said city until such time as Dahlmanism
is repudiated by the commercial inter
ests of Omaha, openly and publicly. Let
Dahlmanism continue its course if it so
chooses of defaming and debasing Ne
braskait is my choice, however, to take
such a stand as will not add to the profit
of a city that allows a bunch of stlg
matlzers to further, debase the state and
Its people. CECIL E. MATTHEWS,
No Rights for the Rich.
OMAHA, July 2.-To the Editor of
The Bee: I think the rankest piece
of socialistic buncombe perpetrated on
the public is the motion of Bryan in the
democratic convention to exclude from its
floor and membership two or three of
its most prominent members because tfley
were very rich. Of course he could not
hope ' that such a motion would carry.
No convention, unless it was a conven
tion of anarchists or socialists, would
exclude a regularly elected delegate for
that reason. But It gave Bryan a chance
to pose. If it has come to the pass that
only those who have nothing shall be
permitted to exercise political rights.
God help us all. And soon It will be
God help Bryan, for he, too, is rich, very
rich, in the eyes of the real poor. And
he has made his wealth weeping for the
woes of the poor, in denouncing preda
tory wealth at so much a denounce.

Nebraska Than Iowa.
POINTS OUT DISCRIMINATION
Insists Before Interstate rammer
Hearing that Omaha Should
Have Fall Benefit of Her
Advaatafc. .
Yesterday , morning's session of ' the
freght rate hearing in the federal court
kroom was taken up with the testimony of
E. J. McVann of the traffic bureau of
the Omaha Commercial club.- Mr. Mc
Vann exhibited volumes of figures, show
ing that the expense of operation in
Iowa west from the Mississippi river
was greater than the expense of
operating through Nebraska in the direc
tion of the Colorado country. This he
pointed out was due to the fact that the
Union Pacific in Nebraska followed the
Platte valley and the Burlington fol
lowed the Republican river to a large ex
tent, thereby eliminating ' the necessity
of many cuts and grades.
Omaha, Kansas City, St. Joe and other
points are contending for a reduction in
freight rates to Colorado points, - corre
sponding to the reduction given , to Chi
cago, St Louis, St. Paul and Minneapolis
by the Klndell decision two years ago.
Comparative Analysis Made.
Mr. McVann gave some figures showing
the operating expenses of several of the
railroads in Iowa during the year 1910,
and compared them with the operating
expenses of the same roads for the same
period in Nebraska. Operating expenses
in Iowa per mile for the year were shown
to be for the Rock Island. $5,064.00; the
Burlington, 16,683.04; the Northwestern,
18,362.06. The average cost of operation
for the three roads in Nebraska per mile
was $6,703.06. The figures for three im
portant roa,ds operating in Nebraska were:
The Burlington.. $5,119.10; the Northwest
em, $4,646.19; the Union Pacific, $8,661.53;
making an average of $6,108.60 cost of op
eration per mile. '
In connection with this he showed how
the freight revenues on these lines com
pared with the cost of operation. The
average freight revenues on the tin's
compared in Iowa were $5,333.73, while
the average freight revenues for the UnM
compared in Nebraska were $7,496.59 pe
mile. This Mr. McVann said he was glv.
lng in order that he might somewhat
localise t he situation as to the freight
rates for which h was contending.
General Operation Cost.
Continuing with his comparisons he
showed the difference of cost of opera
tion of the various systems in Nebraska
with the cost of operating on the rest of
the system. Figures on cost of operation
per wile on the Rock Island for 1911 were
shown to be $6,268.18, while the cost of
operating that system in Nebraska was
$5,291.64; for the Burlington, $6,563.41, while
the cost of operating the system in Ne
braska was $5,068.86; for the Union Pa
cific, $7,902.07, while the cost of operat
ing the system in Nebraska was $8,996.01;
the Northwestern, $8,868.07, while the cost
of operating the system In the state was
$4,796.94. These figures the witness has
gleaned from the report of the several
railroads to the state' railway commis
sions. ; . ,
Omaha Entitled tn Reduction.
The witness pointed out tnat the rates
should be adjusted with reference to the
natural advantages belonging to the
state. He called attention to the fact
that all the witnesses Monday said they
would be satisfied with the old rate as It
was before the Klndell adjustment as
that would put Omaha and the other
complaining points on an equal with their
competitors in the jobbing industries.
Mr. McVann was the last witness In
the hearing. - Special' Representative
Burchmore will go on to St. Louis, where
he has further business, and will later
take his transcripts from this hearing
before the Interstate Commerce commission.

YARDS VALDEB INCREASED
Commissioners Divided on Placing
Higher Figure on Property.
OFFICIALS REACH COMPROMISE
Board of Equalisation Reduces Valu
ation of Omaha and Council
Bluffs Street Railway
Company,
Valuation of property of the Union
Stock Yards company was increased from
$4,060,000 to $4,500,000 by the equalisation
board.
County .Commissioners Elsasser and
Harte voted agalnBt the Increase. El
sasser thinking the Increase should be
greater and Harte believing there should
be a greater increase If there should be
any.
Everett Buckingham, general manager
of the company, and Frank T. Ransom,
its attorney, appeared to protest against
an increase, saying the original schedule
of $4,060,000 was too high, but tho com
pany was willing to accept it. Thoy
declared this figure came nearer to ac
tual value than many other valuations
In Omaha and South Omaha.
Deputy County Attorney Elllck, con
sidering the advantageous location of the
stock yards property, Improvements
made, railroad facilities and good will,
fixed the value of the property at $7,600,
000, and said the board should value It
at that figure if all other property la
valued at actual cash value.
' Commissioner Lynch moved to value the
property at $7,600,000, but Elsasser was
the only board member woo voted with
him. The board took a recess and in
the committee room compromised on
$4,500,000, after Lynch and Elsasser had
failed to secure a $5,OU0,000 compromise.
In the committee room and in the re
sumed meeting Elsasser and Harte ex
plained their votes. Harte said the board
should either take Elldck's recom
mendation or reject it; there should be
no compromise. He was In favor of
the origin! schedule, $4,060,000.
The board reduced the valuation of the
Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Railway
company to $7,000,000, $600,000 less than it
was last year.
