It was In the early stages of the Miilhall Investigation, as we rocall it, that tho Inundation of members of congress, with artificially- stimulated letters and telegrams 'from their con stituents, was doflned as "acceler ating public sentiment." But this had become common practice, and "wholesale appeals or protests pro moted by various agencies Interested in some Impending action had long been known. If 1U exposure was ex pected to stop tho game, however, that expectation Is unfounded, for here comes the nowest Issue of Mr. Bryan's Commoner with the custo mary Invocation "to wire or write your senator." To quote more fully: Every reader la urged to write his sena tor at Once, making known hla views and urging Immediate action on the currency MIL And again: The currency bill Is drawn In the In terest of the public and should be passed without delay. If you favor the presJ. dent's currency bill wire or write your senator again and urgo him not to per mit tho currency bllj .to be delayed or emasculated. Assuming that tho great Com moner army will respond to com mand, democratic senators at Wash ington may fortify thomselvcs for a bombardment, particularly the demo cratic senator from Nebraska, who, we have an Inkling, Is the real target at which the Commoner's guns are aimed. Of course, attempts of tho sugar lobby to "accelerate, public senti ment" called for vigorous rebuko, but when tho president's cabinet pre mier does the "accelerating" It at once becomes praiseworthy and patriotic. lopkin JJackwanl"' , TnkJay in Omaha twice Told Tales Looki as f Oovernor Morehead's political normal school board were riding for a, fall.

"Tbn party exlsta to carry out pur poses, not to get office through 'dicker,' " says the colonel. Is that the party that has seized upon Sulzer with such avidity and pressed Us nomination uaen him? Our Latin-American Trade. Much Is said of our non-progres sive Latin-American commerce, and the methods to bo om ployed for cul tivating larger trade in these, our neighboring markets. The statistics for tho fiscal year 1913 show that our exports to Xiatln-Araerlca, which includes nil of South America, ex cept tho Qui anas', and the Centraf American republics, together with Mexico, Cuba, lLaytl and Santo Do mingo, increased 107 per cent since 1000, and our imports from there 171 per cent. In other words we sold these countries goods amounting to 1321,000,000, as compared with 3108,000,000 in 1900, and bought from them $44,000,000, as against $162,000,000 in 1900. While, therefore, we desire to con tinue enlarging our commercial In- tereowBe with, them, It is shooting wide of the faots to base the plea upon the Impression that our bust new with South and Central America Is disappointing. These Increases cited appear the more significant when compared, with the rate of In crease la our export trade with ether countries, which is 67 per cent, ' Of course, there Is yet big room for our commercial expansion in South America, In which the Panama canal should help. It is now estimated that the foreign trade of the west coast of South America amounts annually to $70O,q0O,OOO, the Hon's sharo of which goes to Europe. The United States ought to cut Into this deeply with the advantages it will have to offer in tho canal facilities, for thero is no valid reaaon for supposing that sentiment alone now sends tho bulk ot that west shore trade to Europe instead of to the United States. The Filipinos' Thaski. In the Filipino assembly's reply to President Wilson's message coaced lng additional powers of government to the natives, delivered through Uoyernor General Harrisen, occurs this passage: A few days have sufficed to bring about a good understanding between Americans and Filipinos, which It had been Impossi ble to establish in the last thirteen years. Similar feeling crops out elsewhere in the note. But, of course, the truth la, as history will record, It nas taken not a few days, but these thlr teen years, to fit the Filipinos for whatever powers of self-government they are now capable. Tho "few days have sufficed" for nothing as yet of tangible good to the race lifted out of Spanish oppression, with all its attendant evils of Ignorance and dis ease. Even the form of felicity now assumed Is made possible through th,e results of those thirteen years of re publican rule. The task our demo cratlc friends take up today Is very different from the one confronting William McKlnley In 1900, and the continued advancement of the Fili pinos depends upon successful fur therance of the work begun by the re publicans. ''The largest measure of self-gov ernment consistent with their wel fare and our duties" has, since writ ten Into the nattonal republican plat form of 1900, been the policy ot the republican party toward the Philip pines, and it has been honestly and courageously adhered to with such success as the amazing new life, In dustrUUy, socially and politically.

Oatponrlnsr of m Disgusted Democrat. OMAHA, Oct 21 To the Editor of The Bee: I eee Oovernor Morehead has de livered himself of a lengthy diatribe on ex-Governor Bulzer convicting Sulzer again. I sec also that the governors of several other states, solicited for opinions by the same agency, had sense enough to decline to be interviewed. Governor More head should learn that If he seizes every opportunity for cheap publicity, as, for example, In this case, and a little while ago when he posed as a road worker be tween two convicts, he will be apt to get the hot end of the poker, at least half of the time. I am a democrat, and voted for Morehead, but I won't promise to vote for him again. 6. J. Can Yon Heat Itf OMAHA, Oct. a-To the Editor of The Bee: Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, Ram say, Curie, Marconi, Edison, in fact, all the great men and women ot science, the discoverers, Inventors and benefactors ot humanity, living and dead, must now give way to the master of all! Here comes the chief, the famoa.1 head of Omaha's most famous water depart rr.ent, who has discovered h6w lo get something for nothing. He Is going to take over the public service utilities of the city, and make the owners ot tho property pay themselves for the same. It's so simple we wonder no one else ever thought ot It; all that Is to be done is to extort from the corporations a 15 per cent tax on their gross Incomes, and when the sum la sufficient, hand It back ard take the property. Isn't that easy? Then, when the property has been taken over, It will all be put under the direction of the water commissioner, who Is surely entitled to the place by right ot discovery, not to speak of eminent do main, and he will furnlbh "service at ost of production." Simplicity Itself, lie Is certainly the wonder of alt times. Of course, the promises he mode In con nection with the water plant don't go any more, for he has had another vision s'.nce then. Consider, If you please, that when tho city took over the water plant, and the commissioner was placed In control ot Its operation, he sought to Increase the rates charged the packing houses: In or der to do this, he mado a computation as to the cost ot production, and found It cost a fraction under t cents per 1,090 gallons to furnish water at South Omaha, so the packing house rate was fixed at 8 cents, double what the Omaha Wat. company had charged. But the price to the humble home owner has been fixed at 2fV4 cents, so that Instead ot getting "service at cost of production," the smaller consumer Is paying 20l cents bonus per 1,000. gallons, In order that a huge fund of Idle money, now nearly a million of dollars, may lie In the banks, useless so far aa the city la concerned. The sorrow ot It Is that & large num ber ot thoughtless people, who earnestly desire to get something for nothing, wilt allow themselves to be gulled by the luminous promises of the man who must know better, for It Is Impossible to think an educated man can be so fondly foolish aa to take any stock In the plan Illumi nated by R.

New York World: It Is a traaio col lapse ot the aged Inventor's hopes. In the face ot adversity, Count Zeppelin hat labored steadfastly for years to create for Germany a. more formidable type ot war engine than any other country had, but always misfortune brought ruin when success seemed moat sure. Springfield Republican: The shocking disaster at Johannlsthal does not affect the status of the airship as in engine of war, but It shows ones more how blgh Is the price In Uvea as well as In treas ure that must go to the conquest of the air. In risk there Is little to choose between the two branches of the service. In the fall of L II twenty-seven were killed and the twenty-eighth perhaps fa tally wounded, and but a short time aa-o fifteen were lost in the wreck of an air ship near Heligoland. But three German aviators were also killed Friday by aero plane accidents, and while these accidents cost fewer Uvea at one time they are constantly happening and the total is greater absolutely, though not perhans relatively, than that or the dirigible wrecks. Neither type can yet be called even moderately safe, but the flying ma chine Is perhaps closer to the solution of the problem ot safety than the balloon.
