Hot a Popular Outpouring. . The effort to raise funds for the democratic national campaign by vol untary popular subscription, has pro ceeded far enough to prove its fall ure. The notion that the people are inspired and enthused by the candi dacy of the professor to the point of rushing forward with financial offer ings to foot the bills incurred by his campaign managers, fe a sad delu sion. ' Here it Is October 1, and with all the drumming and fifing about the duty of the faithful to put up the coin, the total amount gathered In by the local democratic organ is $3, 121. 60, received from 850 contribu tors. Even then, as the exhibit dis closes, the proceeds represent per sonal solicitation by forty collectors, seeking reward on the "honor roll." It is by comparison with the popu lar campaign, fund raised for Bryan four years ago, however, that the present effort Is seen to slump. On October 1, 1(08, the sum pulled, out by the faro democratic tewllne ag gregated 88.1IS.21, gathered from 1,118 contributors, a much larger proportion of them being volunteers. Four years ago, too, a lot of money was raised by the democrats on other subscription lists, the Bryan, Volun teers alone gathering $12,000, but notwithstanding the fact that it this time has the field all to Itself, on Oc tober 1, 1912, the local organ's foot ings are 20 per cent short of what they were on October 1, 1108, and not half as. many people have been sufficiently Interested to chip In. Incidentally, this exhibit furnishes oas of the best arguments for con tinuing prosperity 'by re-electing President Taft. The average contri bution to the Bryan fund four years ago was about 81.60, while this year the average contributor, to the Wil son fund though fewer la number, feels rich enough' to give twice that amount. That Is what four years of good times under a republican presl dent has done even for democrats. lEocyrilltitlvanl Inkmv In Omaha I IBSU'lU.i) t ROM BEX OCT. 1. a li P" " From thtt tamnnr&rv brook In hfta unties we assume Oroico Is ezgrossed either in politics or base ball.

Is quoted as saying we shall have no anthracite coal famine this winter. Mr. Baer Is supposed to know more about the anthracite coal business than any one else. That be ing the cat, bis prediction should have a reassuring effect. Consumer will hope for no recall of this authoritative announcement, which Is at sharp variance with that of retail and wholesale coal dealers ia the middle oast and middle west and tending somewhat to discount the rsssons advanced for increased! prices. To substantiate .their claim of an Inevitable famine' New York coal jobbers say there was a shortage in the supply on August 31 ot 6,500, 000 tons. This la laid largely at the door of the strike last sprlag. But evidently Mr. Baer considered that la making his statement. Admitting the shortage up to Sep tember . 1," it should be possible for the mines to catch up materially with the normal. Happily Mr. Baer in cllnes to the opinion that the usual output may he safely relied upon. A Woman la the Case. The alleged Canadian robbers rounded op at St, Louis have discov ered to their sorrow, -as have other bandits before them, that love and loot do not go well together. They had escaped with a swag of 827,000, spending weeks negotiating Its trans fer into coin of the realm under the very aoses, reports say, of the police. Then, emboldened in their success, they ventured into St. Louis and the lone woman la the case yielded to her most womanly instinct with regard to secrets and the rest was easy. The capture recalls with a vivid coincidence the arrest ot the Long baugh gang, also in St, Louis, some eleven years ago. They had held up and robbed a Northern Pacific train In Montana of a rich swag, eluded their pursuers and taken refuge in St' Louis. But they had a woman in the case, too. It was not long be fore the woman discovered a hand some detective, who happened to be on the lookout tor valuable infor mation that might come his way. Longbaugh and his gang- were sur prised and arrested, all, including the woman, going to prison. The old days of high life on the borders reveal tew women members of desperado bands. It has been one of the traditions of the trade that secrets of this sort are not the kind to be entrusted to a feminine mind, which. Is a redeeming tribute to womankind, even those who may fall into bypaths ot such associations. Grove L. Johnson of California, father of Hiram, remarked some time ago that "these fellows follow- ing Roosevelt remind me ot the boy who managed to get on the back of a runaway bull. As he tore prst some friends one yelled, 'Where are you going? 'I doa't know replied the boy, 'ask the hull.' In the case ot the bull moose it would be useless to ask the question. From the way our amiable demo cratic contemporary is . throwing douLle-column fits,' one would Im agine Governor Wilson was its first, last and only choice for president, when, as a matter of fact, it put in several months during the primary campaign telling how much stronger and abler Governor Harmon was than any. ot the other aspirants.

It was a defensive talk from start to finish and awakened real en thusiasm but once and that was in re sponse to the discourteous and untimely reference to our fellow cltlxen, Mr. Vletot Roaewater. Discourteous, because times without number, Tho Bee and its editor's distinguished father have eulogised the colonel In the day of the republican Theodora no man in Nebraska, in fact no two senators from Nebraska enjoyed Quite so much Influence as Edward Rose water. Untimely, because long, long Weeks ago, the American public grew weary of the charges the third terra can didate rang so dolorously anent his de feat in Chicago.

In his Omaha harangue, Colonel Roose velt dee-llghted In roasting Victor Rose water "to 4 frame," as Perkins' doughty warrior would say. Among other things he charged Doc Rosewater with being a tool of ths bosses. Doc. Rosewater, In his personal and official organ, The Bee, made this iaconlo and pertinent reply: "Ths colonel's compliment Is not that Victor Rosewater was some one's else tool, but that the declined the colonel's demand to be his tool." As Doc. Rosewater' father would say, "Nuff sed." , Maybe Doc. Rosewater did not want what Colonel Roosevelt wanted him to want-and there you are., A Corking Good Time. e Chicago Post Always believing in a corking good time. Roosevelt has bottled Rosewater. Tho Bxaot Precis Moment. Kansas City Journal. "Still," observes The Omaha Bee, "Col onel Roosevelt was very desirous and willing to accept the support of Vlctoi Rosewater up to tho moment he decided to bolt the Chicago convention," And that was the precise moment when Rosewater ceased to be an upright and patriotic citizen and became a corrupt boss and enemy ot the people. How could the col onel accept support from one who had undergone such a sudden and appalling metamorphosis? . Real Wrecker of tho Party. David City Banner. Whll in Omaha Roosevelt took a rap at Victor Roiewater, saying that the latter was controlled by the bosses at Chicago. Vic did much toward ths wreck of the republican party and Teddy is do ing his best to complete ths Job. Hot Shot from the Colonel. Plattsmouth Journal. Roosevelt poured the hot shot into Vic tory Rosewater in Omaha, the o'tht night, but Victor, while not as large as some fellows, his shoulders are broad and he is able to bear all the abuse that Teddy can heap upon h'm. What Can the Motive Bet ' Tecumseh Journal-Tribune. While campaigning In Nebraska lait week Colonel Roosevelt took occasion to assail Victor Rosewater, but The Omaha Bee continues to be issued regularly both morning and even. The fact that Dr. Rosewater rendered assistance to the re publican party in placing "kibosh" on Roosevelt in the Chicago convention may In a measure account for the 111 feeling exhibited by. the third-term candidate. Great Piece of Advertising, F. A. Kennedy In Western Laborer. Theodore Roosevelt bull moose candt date for president of the U. S. A., crossed the border of western Nebraska last week, and from the moment h crossed the line till he quit the Audi' toriura he knocked on Victor Rosewater of The Bee.

Tanner's Democrat One would think from reading his Nebraska talks that Victor was the only editor in tha stats. I can se Victor Rosewater weep ing with humiliation over tha terrible things the candidate for president of the United States was saying about him to about 60,000 people in The Bee's resr vation nit! Let the Other Fellow Explain. Columbus Tribune-Journal. Mr. Rosewater has undoubtedly heard of wbat colonel had to say, for it has been published in all the daily papers Jn the state, even in the news columns of his own paper.

Y., eighty-six years age September SB, IE-resulted In mak ing a page of history that is the strang est in our country's story. Morgan was born in Culpepper county, Virginia, - served under Andrew Jackson at New Orleans, afterwards moved to Canada, and finally settled at Batavla, N. Y. In 182S, shortly after the report had been circulated that'h was about to ex pose th secrets of Free Masonery, he suddenly disappeared and was never seen again. It was charged that h was kid napped and murdered by the Masons, an the excitement was Immense. A body tound near Fort Niagara was for some time thought to be Morgan's, but upon investigation it proved to ba that of another man; but still the search con tinued and Still the excitement grew. Throughout the north, but especially In New York, there was a hot indigna tion against the Masons, which, instead of cooling down as the days and months passed, became mors and more Interne, resulting at least In the formation of the Anti-Masonic party, , to which belongs th unique distinction of being the only party In American history not based on ,some theory of constitutional construc tion or on som governmental policy. Thurlow Weed, the creator of th party, recognizing tha political value of the antl Masonic excitement said of the body found near Fort Niagara that It was "a good enough Morgan until after the lec tion,'; and forthwith proceeded to make gooa us or it. th lntelllaene nt th w organized in New (York state, where, In lO, it cast 30,000 votes. In 152 It cast 70,000 votes, and In U30 the number of bal lots it threw reached the enormous ag gregate of 120,000. This was in New York state alone. The agitation spread to neighboring states, and the Anti-Masons made an at tempt to organise along national .lines, In opposition to Andrew Jackson, A national convention met at Philadel phia in September, 1880, at which there were ninety-six delegates from ten states; and the following year, at another con vention, a national ticket was put in the field, with William Wirt for president and Amos Ellmakes for vies president, The ticket suoceeded In carrying but one stat, Vermont But th party did not Immediately dl It controlled Pennsylvania for two or three years, and was strong in Ohio and Massachusetts, but after 185 it dlsap. peared as rapidly as it had arisen. Ite leaders, Thurlow Weed and William H. Seward, took to other pastures, and the Anti-Masons took thsir place along with the antedeluvians and were soon forgotten. Of course, the whole thing was nothint but a mean, dirty trick on the part of th politicians. The office seeking scampi were well aware of the fact that th Masonic fraternity had nothing to do with the disappearance of Morgan; but, as Weed Intimated, tha excitement was a good vote getter, and that was all they cared to know about It. To say the least the Antl-Masonlo tcm- pest was g very doubtful compliment to - - - in inteiugen Ths .Antl-Masonto party was an once of that time. MeesMerlW Tariff and Prices. NEW YORK, Sept. S8.-T0 th Editor of Th Bee: Of all th fool talk going around, th talk about , th "cost of liv ing" Is the foollahest Even B. F. Yoakum In his "World's Work" article says the cost of food and clothing hav rlsea every year. Whan the farmers only lncreasa their acreage I per cent while the population Increases & per cent it Is hardly worth while to ask further why food costs more. Th papers are pounding away on tha meat tariff, but congress is not in ses sion. Why. didn't they pound away on It while congress was fooling with steel, cotton and woolen manufactures, tor po litical buncombe? , . Mtat, potatoes and sugar, th dally ne cessities of life, could have been lowered at least 30 per cent by a three Una bill. and It would not have hurt the farmer either. But clothing is cheaper and better than ten years ago, and if you go back to twenty years ago, there is no comparison to b made,. You can buy a suit today for J10 or $13, all wool and fast color, that you could not have bought than tor doubl the money. This has been done under a protective tariff, by competition and improvement in processes. Th tarn applies to cotton goods, knit underwear, stockings, sweaters, blankets and comfortable. Also to tinware, crock ery, hardwire and tools, and farm Imple ments. If som ot th surplus is sold abroad tor less, to keep th factories run ning full, it only enables lower prices to be mad here, and better wages to be pa'.d. Any manufacturer knows that, but It sounds Strang to th average man. . What Is the contention? ! ' That with lower tariffs, the price of manufactured goods would be cbeaiw. They would b made abroad, and th money sent out ot the country; , fli'i farmer would lose his home marki-t which takes over nine-tenths of his crop. The Irishman said to the grocer, "Sure I could buy eggs in Ireland for six pence a dosn." ' "Why didn't you stay there, Pat?" "Because you couldn't get the six pence!" ; JOSEPH D. HOLMES, A Plea for the Under Doer. BEATRICE, Neb.. Sept .-To th Editor of The Bee; In some countries when man wanted a wife he went out with a tesao and caught her. Our Chris tian marriage is fast relegating this cus tom to the background as belonging to th dark ages. In most cases nowadays when a man wants a wlf he procure a license and goes prancing around to the minister's or some other dignitary and the knot Is tied. This is the effect of civilization. A half century ago when differences arose between men a challenge was is sued to fight it out and tho best man won. This man won the admiration ot many people In that day, who respected him for his strength. The writer's sym pathy was with the "under dog" because It was brute force that conquered him. His cause was dear to him, but phys ically he was weak. Our courts have ban ished this from our land. This Is more civilization. Along comes another evU greater than either of the above, viz: the man who Is a giant of financial intellect. H uses his mlehiy power to pour money Into his coffers. It is this money that Is a menace to our nation. Insane asylums not 1,000 miles from New York City have spoiled children being oured from overdoses, to parents' sham. Poodl dogs are pampered and petted beyond degre in ths latter daya Brtght-eyed children go hungry because ot a father's Inability to cop with more favored high financier. With land values at 50 per acre what hop is there for the young man who 'starts in as a home builder and nothing but a pair of willing hands? What makes our nation but its homes? W ar throwing up our hats today for th man with the mwey. Is it right? Will we eer be over-capitalized with civ. Ulzatlon or will eom of it eventually lead u to damnation?
