Is congressional timber so scarce thoro ' that ninety-day carpetbaggers havo to bo roqul ' dtloned? It Is well to consorvo tho flood waters, but what a pity this grand old Jim 6zono In Ne braska cannot also bo consorvod for tho uso of less blessed sections. Huorta is said to tako only throe or four hours' sleep a night or porhaps along toward day. Yet ho manages to keep rather wide awake at tho switch. H should bo distinctly understood and it's ;a good rule that nobody In tho pollco depart ment can run for office and contlnuo on tho payroll oxoopt tho head, boss. Ono of tho moot Important leanons to loarn In running an automobile is to control tho lm pulso which says, as tho auto and train approach k: a railroad track, "Go on, you can beat it across." A fusion of republicans and bull raooaera J has already boen agreed on In ono Nebraska county, according, to a stipulated division of places on the tlckot. Domocrats and pops showed em how In dayo gone by. It's a long lano that haa no turning. When a man wants a Public office with a salary attached, ho goes after any old ioh ho thlnkB ho can get. For now nroof of this old truism, behold Jlr. Shallenbcrger, who. after serving as govornor and chasing tho senator ship, has again trotted himself out on the track for congress. The Income Tax Falldown. Roturns under tho new federal Income tax law for tho Initial year foreshadow a shortage of upwards of $20,000,000 below tho estimates made at the time tho law was enacted. As would naturally bo expected under such clrcumstancofl, tho cry of fraud and threat of prosecution of tax dodgers already follows. While doubtless much evasion has been prac ticed, tho real indictment must lie against the fictitious estimate, which Is now proved to be a wild guess, for In framing tho estimate allow anco was supposed to bo made for a normal per centage of tax shirking. Either ono or all of soveral things must, thorefore, have happened first, tho cstlmnlo of current Incomo overshot tho mark; second, tho allowance for evasion was altogether too small; third, the law Is defective in its In doflnltoness as to whether certain classes of In como aro taxnblo; fourth, the shrinkage of In dividual incomes since the democratic adminis tration took control proved even greater than was feared. In a nutshell, conceding tho Justice and ef fectiveness of tho Incomo tax as a part of our revenue system, democratic administration does not offer tho best tlmo to inaugurate It. Let Thcra Set the Example. Tho National Federation, of Woman's clubs embraces some of tho most intellectual and alert fomlnlno minds of tho country. A dollvoranco of the federation In national convention, there fore, Is worthy of serious consideration. At the recent gathering tho women recorded thoni Kolvea In explicit and emphatic terms against grotcsquo vagaries In fomlnlno dress styles, es pecially with respect to young girls and misses. They brought' out some oxcollont arguments to show tho folly and tho baleful tendencies of go ing to tho extremes In this matter of wearing everything that foolish fashion decrees. In fnct, if thero was anything to bo advanced along that line they loft nothing to bo said. . But now, what of tho dollvoranco? Can it bo successfully applied? 8urely this organiza tion should have somo Influonco, Admittedly tho test Is a sovoro one, for girls and womon havo shown thomsclvcs all but Impervious to criticism, Intolerant of advice and dumb to di rection in all matters of dross. And yet, thero should bo somo potency In thoao resolutions at least tho women can support their precepts by their own ox.mplos. Lot them bo tho first to discard as well as scorn tho freak fashions and attlro thomsolves according to their ex pressed Ideas of modesty and common sense and see If It docs not help their influence, An Experiment Worth Watching. Lack of organization in reaching his custo mers and moro successful compotlng in the markotlng of his product Is ono of the chlof handicaps of tho farmer. To supply tho de ficiency is tho objoct of ovory plan or mcasuro looking to the Improvement of farming as. a business, it Is ono of (he cardinal principles In tho schomo for rural credits. So thosa Kansas farmers who have organ ized tho Fedoration of the Farmors' and Con sumers' Produco association aro on the right Tlrhck, as their bylaws Indicate: To enable, the farmers to self their praduce' dl- reotly to the consumers without the aid of unnecea eary middlemen ; to foster Its members in every way poss'ble; to buy and sell direct from p'roducer to con sumer and to secure Just railroad service and rates and equal and Just service on any and all of the markots within our territory. While this Is said to bo tho first organiza tion of tho kind In the country, tho prlnclplo Is not now. It Is the same, only moro fully worked out, that has underlain all tho co-operativo creamory, fruit growers, grain storage and kin dred schemes. Thoro Is no reason why tho fedoration should not make a go of It provided only it commands tho necessary executive abil ity. It has tho advantago of a very practically co-opcratlvo spirit on tho port of tho consumer and the parcel post facilities to help it along. Hero again tho experiment will be worth watching and, If successful, wbrth emulating. No Connection Whatever. A Chicago lawyer namod Kerr was made civil governor of Vora Cruz, and thon, sun denly despoiled of his official tltlo and emolu ments after a fow days upon discovery that ho had mado a spooch criticising President Wilson's watchful waiting Mexican policy. A leading St Louis business man, head of tho Simmons Hardware company, was solocted for appointment on tho fedora! reserve board which Is to have charge of the new banking system, but was immediately dropped after let ters turned up In which Mr. Simmons had Joined In urging congress to glvo business a xest, notwithstanding President Wilson's do mand for tmmedtato enactmont of his anti-trust program.

Tho question remains whether tho two can bo mado to go together, or whether the new activ ity will crowd out tho old. N.o, Hans Wagner Is not the nanio of a myth ological character; it is the patronymic of a dis tinguished figure In the arena of greatest Amer ican activity, tho man who has mado his 3,000th hit, and ho began his career somo time after Zcua had fanned out. The now federal judiciary reform bill, Just passed by the lower houso, abollshos the fee ays tem for court clorks and limits them to stated salaries.

MADISON', Neb., June I8.-T0 the Edi tor of The Bee: Since that terrible ac cident on West Center street happened, it recalls my trip to Omaha lately, going in on West Dodge street where the road crosses tho Union Pacific railroad from tho weat you will find another death trap where sooner or later you will find Just such an accident as this that Just hap pened. I have traveled almost every rond In northeastern Nebraska and this one Is the worst one that exists.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., June IS. To the Editor of The Ilea: I see that tho statement made by the scientist, Luclcn Larkln, attacking the writers of the Bible, goes seemingly unnoticed end unchal lenged. By Mr. Larkln'a statement, he shows modern worldly wisdom, which Is subject to change dnlly and hourly, but by the same statement he shows tho most pitiable Ignorance of wisdom In lasting and eternal things The lost men tioned Is tho word of God which shall stand, scripture says, "though heaven and eurth pass away." It seems strange thai one who looks Into tho wonders of the hcavena( so much should miss the great lesson taught by the silent though constant songs of praise above us for a great king the "beautiful singer of old time, King David, through whose line our Lord should come, spoke something like this: "When I behold the heavens, tho work of Thy fingers, the moon and Ihc stars, that Thou hast or dained, what Is man that Thou art mind ful of him or the son of man, that Thou vlsltest him." We know that we of oarth have no power to create or destroy Bny of the wondrous works of God above us, wo know that we are utterly powerless In the hands of the living God; Ho at will gives to us our breath, and at will tnkes It again and yet we find too many men of learning these days uplifting a puny and Impotent hand and voice against their Maker. So let un think twice before we say that the Inspired word of God shows Ignorancp. ELIZABETH DOWEN, Here and TLere The American typewriter haa been adapted to Bengalese.

But handsome ia as handsome does; yachting experts expect the new Shamrock to be either a marvel or a colossal failure It is at all events quit out of the ordinary. Japanese Womanhood By Uta-Ro Shimoda, Princi pal of n Girls' School in Japan, Author and Educator Education Is like horticulture. If one engages In horticulture with sincerity of purpose, the ordinary wild flowers or the common plants may bo made pleasant to look at and serviceable. But If he at tempts to raise something extraordinary and new; that Is, if he tries to raise egg plants from cucumber vines, or to make cherty blossoms come out of wil low trees, he will have spent his energy for no practical purpose. Not only that, but he may thereby kill the vines or break the branches of the willow trees. It is the same with education. In order to adopt tho methods of foreign countries of different man ners, customs and habits, we should first carefully examine them before we decide to adopt them. We should not decide recklessly. We have peculiar raco characteristics of our own. Moreover, we have with us a chief magistrate who Is peerless in the world and a national Ideal that never changes. To be sure, every nation has Its own peculiarities, and the meth ods used In cherishing these peculiarities should be such as suit, tho condition of the country. So, the good polnfl of the Institutions of foreign countries should bo carefully selected, so that in adopting any thing aa should not "kilt the cow by trying to straighten her horns," or to feel inconvenience by adding legs to snake's." The honor of the Japanese women Is that she be comes a good wire ana a good mother, tine is nt to bo tho queen of her household, and not the queen of society. The western woman Is tall and robust in body, beautiful In figure, sprightly in manner, and straightforward In language. In a Sense, these quali ties may have been acquired by long usage and social education, but they have been born and bred in the woman, as she 1? given precedence as the flower of society. As for the Japanese woman, we cannot say that she is equal to the Western woman In these strong qualities. But she is peerless In the world In these virtues; that fche does not shun her duty tq sacrifice? herself for her parents, husband, and chil dren; is not frightened by adversity, does not bewail her misfortunes, and always looks after her house hold affairs, comforts and nurses the members of her household, and takes the responsibilities of the household upon herself, so that the head of the family will not hayu to distract his attention from his business. The sweet fruits of her virtues and steady character, are such that the more one tastes them the sweeter they would become. Besides, the woman of old Japan never stood, behind the bearded man In matters of loyalty to the chief magistrate, and of devotion to the affairs of state. To Illustrate with august examples, there were Yamatohlme, con sort of Emperor Suljln, who was resolute In times of emergency; and Empress Jingo, who accomplished great deeds of valor. Then there were Lady Wage, who was humane and philanthropic; Lady Masako Talra, who was clever and resourceful as a politician, and Lady Kasuga-no-Tsubone, who distinguished her self by her devotion as governess of her child-mas ter, afterward Shogun Iyemltau of Tokugawa. There are many other exampiea in nisiory or Japanese women who distinguished themselves by their virtues. Who, then, can say that the typical Japanese wo man's sphere of activity was confined In being a virtuous wife and a good mother, or that she la not fit to be a great social factor! 1 do not wish to be misunderstood as being con tent merely with our own virtues, and objecting to take lessons from others. Tf we can maintain the ideal of Imperial Japanese nationalism, (hat is the basic principle of Buehldo education, we should go out to seek lessons In the virtues of others. Besides, what other nations consider pralswofthy often coin cides with what we would so consider. I - was told that when George Washington, the originator of American independence, was coming home after the war, his countrymen were wild with Joy In extending welcome to him. They praised him, gathered around him, and gave thanks to h' mother. The mother said: "George Is Just an honest little boy. He Isn't a general or a president to me. He is only my George, who Is a dutiful boy to his mother, and kind to his nolghbora." Again, when a certain person visited 'the mother of Washington, and, meeting an elderly country woman employed In garden work, advised her to re tire from service, the mother was astonished, and replied: "My son is the chief magistrate of the nation, so ho may receive treatment as such. I am only an old country woman of Mount Vernon, and mustn't overstep the bounds of my social position. And when I shall have saved enough for my household and to spare. I shall divide it with the people of our village Those neoDla are not rich, aftor the war. We must see to It that they are all provided for aa soon as possibly." And" she continued wearing coarse linen with a white apron, and assiduously working at mak ing straw braids or baking white bread. At that time the French ambassador called on Washington's mother, and afterward said: "It is not by accident that America has become what it is today. When I was in the presence of this old woman of coarse linen. I noticed that there was more of the brilliant glory than there is in tho presence of the queen of a great nation, wearing a long silk garment, and decorated with resplendent precious Jewelry, and I unconsciously bent my head low." After her death the people In erecting a tomb for her. decided that, for one whose life works were so great and Illustrious, there was no need of recording them on tho tombstone in detail. Petty words, such as might be carved on the tombstone, would tend only to detract from the greatness of the mother. So only the following words were inscribed: "George Washington's Mother," How great was the glory of the virtuous motheri I went through Europe and America soon after the Chinese war of 1S9S-4, in order to investigate the education of women' abroad. After my return, be sides my regular duty aa an educator 0 the girls of the upper classes, (I was president of the Peeresses' school). I was entrusted with the work of tutorship for the august family; and then I boldly planned the education of tho girls of the middle and the lower classes of society. This later work was the beginning of the-, present Jlssen Girls' school. My original ob ject was to relieve and comfort those who might Buffer from the result of the extravagance of the people on account of victory in the war. which would upset society, and, at the same time, establish a achol where the girls might be educated to become virtuous wives and good mothers. Since the founding of this school, sixteen years have elapsed. Still our final soal Is far beyond. Before we reach It. we will .have to go through many trlala on the way. We have by no means finished the work, iet tne taci inn we have been able to send Into the world from this school a few girl graduates of steadfast purpose In life, gives Joy to my heart. People and Events The estate left by the late high com missioner of Canada, Baron Strathcona, toots up $22,357,000. Inheritance taxes pinched tho fortune for J4.1S9.190.

Do not Idly stand mute with despair. There's a thought that will steadfastly thrill you. That will brace like the keen mountain air; It Is this: Not a failure is final, Nay. no failure Is final indeed. And there's always the great Inspiration: It Is never to late to succeed. Till ho hopelessly ceases all trying. Until then, not a man Is e'er downed. For there's always tho chance a new effort. With abundant success will be crowned. So rise far abovo the old failures. Let the manliness In you bo freed: And undaunted, start new, ever knowing, It Is never too lato to succeed. Start anew with a spirit determined! Start anew and let nothing dismay! From the Jaws of defeat wrest a vlct ryl Many other strong souls have you may! Should the struggle seem hard and un ending. If a spur for the fray you should need, Grit vour teeth as you voice the great slogan: It Is never too late to succeed!
