Cheaper Credit for the Farmer.
If, as President Taft believes, the
European co-operative farm credit
system would operate to the advan
tage of both producer and consumer
by lowering the cost of farming, it
should prove to be one of the reme
dies we are looking for. The presi
dent challenges most serious consld
eratlon of the subject in hie proposal
of Its discussion by the governors at
their annual conference in Washing
ton this winter. Much Is claimed
for the results of the system in Ger
many and elsewhere abroad and the
president is convinced both of its
need and adaptability In the United
State.
According to best available fig
ures, 12.000,000 American farmers,
while annually adding to our na
tional wealth $8,400,000,000 on a
borrowed capital of $6,040,000,000,
pay annually Interest charges of
$510,000,000, which is about double
the rate of interest paid by the
European farmer. ' There Is no valid
reason why, with gilt-edged security,
our farmers should not have the ad
vantage of the lowest interest rate.
Failure to get it adds to the cost of
production and at the same time re
stricts the area of land cultivated.
"It must he made profitable,"
says the president, "for the farmer
to place every acre of his ground
under cultivation." And the con
sumer need look for little relief in
this line until that is the case. The
subject is one that can no longer be
evaded by us., Our national repre
sentatives abroad, who, at the direc
tion of the president, have studied
the system in Europe, recommend
its adoption here. This is not a
matter that seems to admit of much
gallery play, but it does appear to
possess some mighty strong features.
Value of Political Promises.
In one of his weekly editorial as
saults upon President Taft, Theo
dore Roosevelt says:
But th way the present administra
tion has failed to keep Its promises In the
past makes its every promise worthless.
If It is desirable to measure the
value of promises, why not hark
back to the night of November 8,
1904, when Theodore Roosevelt,
just re-elected president, voluntarily
made this promise to the American
people:
On the 4th of March, next I shall have
served three and a half years and this
three and a half years constitutes my
first term. The wise custom which lim
its the president to two terms regards
the substance arid not the form and un
der no circumstances will I be a candi
date for or accept another nomination.
And on another occasion Mr.
Roosevelt said: V'.
Word are good and only so when
backed by deeds.
Then md Now.
The official bulletin of the Com
mercial club furnishes the Interest
ing information that the Insurance
committee ia making the construe"
tlon of the new supply mala from
Florence "a special order of busi
ness," and has appointed a subcom
mittee "to wait on the city commis
sioners to learn how the work is
progressing, and adds:
The fact that Omaha's fire loss In 1911
wae $2.M per capita, and the season
eomlng on which tails for greater pre
caution against fire, are the Incentives
that are moving th Insurance committee
In thl matter.
The imperative need of a second
supply main from Florence, and the
fact that Omaha has been heavily
penalised in Insurance rating on
that account, has long been known
to all. More than six years ago the
water company offered to put In this
main, which would save us thou
sands of dollars in fire premiums,
if the Water board would only agree
to reimbursement of the sum in
vested when the. plant should be
taken; over by the eity. At that
time one of the biggest insurance
buyers in the city addressed a re
spectful communication to the Com
mercial club asking help In securing
Immediate construction of the main,
and offering to Join in financing the
project, but the reply over the sig
nature of the Commercial club by
Its president was this:
After consulting with the executive
committee of the Commercial club. It
dues not appear to me to be a wise thing
for this organisation at this time to In
terest Itself In an attempt to solve the
difficulties now existing with reference to
our water supply, "'
Why has the Commercial club
been so long deaf to Omaha's ex
posure to fire risk from which re
lief could have been had by building
this new main at any time for six
years? . v- ''
Can it be that th club has been
used as a catspaw to pull someone's
chestnuts out of the fire?
In the Chicago convention the two
right hand men of the colonel were
Governor Hadley of Missouri and
Governor Deneen of Illinois. Be
cause they refused to Join him in
his effort to destroy the republican
party he turns on them and, de
nounces both as liars and traitors.
It goes without saying that while
they were working, with him they

Democracy and Pension.
SOUTH OMAHA. Neb., Oct li-To the
Editor of The Bee: If the statement of
Joel Hull of Mlnden. Neb., is true, that
the father of Woodrow WJlson was a
confederate soldier. I see no reason why
any of the patriotic people of the West
ern states should be asked to vote for
a man for president of the United State
with treason ' flowing in his every vein
and with full sympathy with every south
ern sentiment and tradition.
Tens of thousands of the best young
men of the great western states lost life.
limb and health In battling for the preser
vation of the national union, when the
father of Woodrow Wilson was helping
to kill them off. Why should .the great
patriotic north forget so aoon the sacri
fice of it young men and vote to seat
in the highest office of the world a man
whose Ufa and every movement shows
sympathy with th men who. caused so
much sorrow and so much loea to the
people of the north T Why displace the
great big man, who is now in the presi
dential chair, big In every way.. heart
soul and body, for one who has not been
tried and who is supposed to be a man
et very narrow views on many public
question.
Woodrow Wilson Is reported to have
said recently that he Is in favor of pen
sioning the men who fought In th eon
federate army and that he Is in favor
of taking pension from men, who fought
in the union army, where they may
have a Httte p ropery and of sending the
rest of the otd soldier to. the Soldiers'
homes. Are the friends and relative of
the old warriors In favor of taking from
them the email recognition given them
by the government and of recognising1
the men who fought to destroy our gov
ernment? ,
Who of the people of South Omaha are
in favor of taking from gallant old Major
Cms,;, who was wounded on the Gettys
burg battlefield, the small pension that he
will only draw for a few year more at
most? . .
Who would take from 3. O. Eastman or
John Mc In tire and a few others, who
might be named their email pittance in
the interest of vocalled economy as viewed
by th democratic candidate for president
of the United States? The republican
a ho are thinking of. voting for Wilton
or throwing away votes for ' Roosevelt
will do welt to atop and think , a long
while before they decide In favor of
throwing away all that the aokllurs of
the union fought for ao many year ago.
The patriotic democrat ought to atop
and think, too... As the son of a union
soldier, who was in th army far over
a year after the war of the rebellion
closed, who was given special mention
several time for bravery on the field
of battle, and who was offered, but re
fused to accept a permanent official po
sition In th army, I would be one of
the last to detract from the brave sold
ier of th confederate army one bit of
praise for their valor as shown by them
on many a bloody field from April, IS61
lo May, 1MB. But their cause was a
mistaken on and they should not be re
garded for fighting to destroy the union
that they themselves are so proud of now.
Some may say, you are flinging the
bloody hirt again that ha been forgot
ten for so many year.) If sympathy for
th old union soldier is flinging th
bloody shirt, then I am willing to let It
be called that, for I do not think thJ
nation can do too much for th few re
maining old soldiers, who fought so
bravely fifty year ago.
Woodrow Wilson I said to have stated
that tie believe the north was wrong
end that the south was right In th fight
between th states. The committee of
the republican party, national, stats and
local should see to It that the patriotic
sentiment of the people of the great west
ern states Is aroused to the danger that
besets our union again. Alt laboring men
should read the speech of Wilson, where
he said he Is oppoed to labor unions and
then vote to let well enough alone.f

Aisl the plural of vow is vows, not vine.
And if I speak of a foot and you show
me your feet .
And I give you a boot would a pair be
called beet?
It one is a tooth and the whole set art
teeth. .
Why shouldn't the plural of both be
called beeth?
If the singular is this and the plural
Is these,
Should -the plural of kiss be nicknamed
keese? - -
Then one may be that, and- three would
be those.
Yet hat in the plural would never he
hose,
And the plural of rat Is rats, not rose,
We epeak of a brother and also of
brethren,
But thouKh we say mother, we never
say methren;
Then masculine pronouns are he, his and
him, .
But imagine the feminine, she, shis and
shim. - -
So the English, I think, you all will
agree,
I thn most wonderful language you ever
did see. , '
