The Town Band.
Tho nvorago American town has
two things It cannot very woll do
without the public square or park
and the local band. The two go to
gether ns naturally as two and two
makes four. Tho town band In tho
public squaro gives a touch and tang
to Ufo in the smaller community
which money cannot buy, genius do
vise or power create. It Is tho charm
of civic prido at homo, tho purveyor
of It abroad. It thrills tho old folks
and enthralls the young In thoso fine
old weekly concerts down on the local
public squaro and fires tbeso hearts
with yet prouder Joy nt the annual
fair off to tho county scat. It Is the
goal of aspiration to many a youth,
the stopping stono to real fame to
somo.
But In Nebraska tho red-letter
event of tho y.ear for tho homo band
Is Ak-Sar-Dcn at Omaha. And if any
of our friends and neighbors out In
tho state ever had a Blighty notion of
Omaha's appreciation of tho services
of tho "town bands" wo aro sure thoy
havo had tho wrong notion. They
bring not only a lot of muslcat talent,
but an ezuberanco of tho vim and
spirit of tho festival that goes far to
ward making thoso annual ovents
what they aro. Somo features might
well be left out of our autumnal feast
days, but thoy are not the "town
bands."
The State Fair Pass Date.
Tho returns on the Stato fair gate
receipts as mado by the management,
showing that almost ono-third of the
admissions woro on free passes, is at
trading public attention and inviting
pertinent questions as to tho favorod
classes, who and why. In this con
nection tho Lincoln Journal saysr
The officers of the Btnte fair will be
asked for a complete report of the free
tickets Issued arid used In the recent ex
position. The preliminary report ofi
Hocrctory Mellor Indicates that the re
ported record of last year, when one
man out of every four who entered tho
grounds was stld to have had a free
pass, will not bo Improved upon. In
fact, mora than one man In four seems
(o have passed free this year. The ndj.
tors, as Usual, ark held Up as the chief
beneficiaries of tho system, whereas tt
Is doubtful If 200 of them from outside
the city were on the grounds throughout
tho week.
If tho Stato fair woro a private en
terprise, the managers could glvo
away as many passes as thoy pleased,
Thoy could even lot tho whole popu
Iatlon of Lincoln in for nothing if
thoy wnnted to. But It it is a public
enterprise, supported as it Is by ap
propriations ut of tho Btato treas
ury, porsonal favoritism and dtscrlm
(nation is as much out of place as tho
froo pass on a railroad.
Management of Good Roads.
, it 1b easy td agree with Jo'hn'Tv
Doyle, secretary of tho United States
Civil Service commission, In tho wis
dom of kooplng tho good roads
movement froo from politics for vari
ous reasons, most obvious of which
Is that politics will not help It. Mr.
Doyle puti it on tho ground that
"vory few of tho 100,000 or inoro
stato and county road officials unjor
existing legislation navo any knowi
odgo of road construction or main
tonanco," and overybody knows that
theso men are not, as a matter of
fact, selected for that purpose be
cause of any expert kcowlodgo along
such linos.
If tho estimates bo correct that
J150.000.000 : which would soein
below tho mark Is annually ex
pondod for the construction and up
keop of public roads in this country,
there would bo force to tho argu
ment, for In tho face of theso enor
mous outlays the legitimate demand
tor good roads becomes stoadtly
more acute, Indicating a real nosd as
the oasis of tho demand. Most tax
payers do not havo to be convlncod
that they often fall to get their
money's worth In public roads built
and maintained by and through
political agencies. The Job of pro
viding good roads la biggor and moro
important today than ever beforo
and it must be undertaken as tho
main task of someone and not merely
a sldo issue,

If "Undo Joe can como back?" Well,

that the man who figures' on running

aside, Joseph Clurney Cannon has
never been neither a quitter or a
mollycoddle; ho Is a stayer and a

The Bee's Good Stroke.
OMAHA, Oct. 2-To the Editor of The
Bee: I want to congratulate The Beo on
having brought It about that the street
car company will let Its conductors sell
the children's tickets to customers on the
cars. I could never understand why the
company ever refused to do this, and
certainly Its action would have been
more graceful If It had done what It Is
now doing at tho tlmo your paper pro
posed to sell them at your office If the
company was not more accommodating.
I havo been buying tickets for my chil
dren at The Bee office, and the favor
was greatly appreciated. MRS. J. D.

OMAHA, Oct. 2.-To the Editor of The
Bee: What a f'.ame of holy rapture
must have thrilled Hon. Oscar Under
wood, as, contemplating his own handi
work, he said of the new free trade
tariff bill that, no matter what Us
critics might say, none could deny that
"the representatives of the people, con
stltutlng the democratic party In con
gress," had redeemed every pledge made.
Yes, Indeed, and Hon. Underwood said
much more along the same lino.
Just then tho democratic tree trade tariff
bill struck a snag. It seems that some
of the senators, who come from cottorl
raising states, aro not exactly pleased
with the provisions Inserted In the bill
dealing with cotton, and the measure was
hung up again until the secret and
mysterious conclave of the democratic
caucus could bring these objectors back
Into line.
It was different when hogs and cat
tle, sheep and wool, corn, wheat and all
other products 0f the northern farmer
or stock raiser were being considered;
theso articles went on the free list al
most without debate. The only protest
raised against the action canv from
tho republicans, who are In a minority
in the present congress. But, when cot
ton, the principal product of the "sunny
south," cam under consideration. It
took session after session of the demo
cratic caucus to determine on what course
to pursue. "The representatives of the
people," who come from tho fourteen
southern slates are fixing the tariff to
suit themselves, regardless of Conditions
In tho other thirty-four states.
I wonder what some of the followers
of Teddy think the fellows who aban
doned tho republican party because Mr.
Taft gave his support to the Canadian
reciprocity plan? They aro the ones who
made It possible for lion. Underwood to
talk about the democrats being tho "rep
resentatives of the people" In congress.

OMAHA, Oct. J.-To the Editor of The
Bee: It sqems strange that some people
think a police officer should be pro

knows what dangers he might be up
against when he applies for the position,
and If he Is such a valuable and brave
man ho Is Just the kind of officer we
should keep on tho force. He could
have a word of praise or a medal for
bravery, but Just because tt befell his
lot to be shot by a criminal Is no sign
ht should be promoted br advanced
ahead of just as capable and efficient
officers that have had the same experi
ence. B.

UPS AND DOWNS.
(A Medley of Mixed Metaphors.)
I.
This life Is full of ups and downs,
Just like a teeter-totter;
Seems like one minute we're the fly,
Tho next we are the swatter; '
One minute we're the under dog, I
The next the dog that's got Mm;
One day we ride on top our woes.
The next we're at the bottom. I
II. i
One day we scale the mountain top, '
The next we're in the valley;
Today our house fronts on the street, A
Tomorrow on the alley;
Sometimes we are "some punklns"
To whom the public caters;
And then, first thing we know. We fin'
We're mighty "small pertateral"
III.
This life's aa full of ups and downs
Aa a roller-coaster ride is;
Or a Ferris wheel; now we're high In air;
Now down where the under side Is;
And sometimes in a swing wo swing ti
high
That up In the clouds we're hidden;
And again we dvrcend to ih sordid earth
And Into tho tiust have sllddcn.
IV.
If life could be expressed In sound
As a musical composition,
W.'d find that without Its ups and downi
That 'twas scarcely worth the rendition;
And so let us blend our ups and downs
Into melodies sweet and true.
For If uncontrolled those up and downi
Might make rng-tlme out of you.
