Marvelously Poreslghtcd or Desperately
Beoklcis t
The address of President Wilson promising
tho country tho biggest boom in Its history al
most in tho samo breath with the announcement
of tho biggest mercantile failure in tho history
of the country stamps him as cither marvel'
ously forcslghted or desperately reckless as a
prophet.
All of us have been cngor to make oursolves
bollevo with the president that existence of
financial depression Is "puroly psychological,"
and to hopo with him that with the assured
procpoct of bountiful crops it will soon pass In
dplte of the manifest distrust growing out of
threatened democratic legislation.
What we would all like to believe, however,
If unfortunately born moro of hopo than of
experience. The president suggosta that tho
revival will come as soon as congress completes
administering to business the doso of new free
dom which he has prescribed, for only then will
buslnoss bo cortain that the treatment Is fln-Ithotl.
Whether the diagnosis Is correct or not, It Is
plain that the country does not like tho sys
tem of treatment. Unless the Improvement is
prompt and marked, to avoid tnklng furthor
disturbing concoctions, the voters will Impa
tiently wait tholr opportunity to call In again
tho time-tried advisers and directors on whoso
success they can moro confidently rely.
Psychology of Keeping Cool.
It Is an old truth which Miss Margaret Wil
son spooks whon she sayc, "If you wear a smile
hot weather doesn't bother you." Jt Is sound
an far as It goes, as ovoryono knows who has
tiled tho two ways of meeting tho sun's summer
gazo, by smiling and frowning. Krot, fume.
kick against tho pricks of tho weather which
one could not in any wiso affect and ono feels
the discomfort all tho moro.
The young woman's psychology of keeping
cool or, perhaps, wo should say, keeping tol
erably comfortable Is Bound; soundor than her
distinguished father's psychology of business
conditions. If wo nro going In for Bun-Kazlntr.
It Is our notion that returning Old Sol's broad,
burning smile, good-naturedly, will yield a good
deal more, relatively, than trying to grin out of
countenanco thin commercial ccllpso that Just
now obscures tho muro In tho business sky.
Good Use of Warships.
A warship may servo no higher purposo than
to avert war. Only as monitors of neaco do
they Justify tho outlay for their construction
and maintenance As a famous American
president onco said, "Speak softly, but carry tho
big stick." Evldonco of tho effectiveness of
this policy comos to hand, If reports bo truo, in
tho ponding dispute between Turkey and Greece.
Whon Turkey threatened war, Greece lnvostcd
In two big American battleships. Now comes
tho roport that Turkey is not talking war for
the present. Even tho peaco-at-any-cost advo
cated ought to approvo of a strong navy If as
sured Its exlstonco would servo to ward off hos-
tilltles. That may not afford a vivid realiza-"
tlon of tho 4i Hi ma to ideal, but nolther docs any
thing olse at hand Just now.
Of course, tho possibility of a clash between
Turkoy and Greece ! not entirely dissipated.
Their differences nro based on solid oelf-intor-osts.
Emboldened by tho recovery of Adrian
oplo, Turkoy longs to got back its groat seaport,
Salonlca. Groeco domands tho Aegean Islands,
hors by right of history and race. So It re
mains to bo soon how far Greece's purchase of
modern battleships will serve In behalf of peace.
Rome authorities regard' another Balkan out
break Imminent. But in tho moantlmo tho
world has horo a good object lesson of tho re
straining lnfluenco of adoquato war strength.
Weak Spot in the Nonpartisan Law.
Tho weak spot In our nonpartisan olecllon
law seems so far to havo escnpod notice It is
tho lack of moana to fill vacancies on tho ticket.
In ordinary ejections candidates run a rep
resentatives of political parties, and provision
Is nindq for supplying tholr places In tho event
that they drop out for any reason aftor nomina
tion and before election. In tho nonpartisan
election, such as provldod for by our Nebraska
law, the candidates submit tholr namos In tho
primary, endorsed moroly by thoso who sign
tholr petitions, and thoso rocolvlng tho highest
number of primary votes in doublo tho numbor
of offices to bo filled, go on tho regular election
ballot. Whore thoro is but one place to bo
filled, as this year, for county Judgo,, for district,
jndgo, or for chief Justlco, that means that only
two names go on the ballot, and tho withdrawal
or retirement of either of tne candidates would
neceeoaVily Insure tho election of tho one re
maining, bocau&o It would be manifestly Im
possible for another name to bo written In In
stifflclont numbers. Conditions may bo pic
tured whore such a contingency would be a pos
itive public calamity. We can think of no way
to avoid this danger and still presorvo tho non
partisan sysUm except by chnnglng tho law
either to increase tho numbor nominated or to
fill such vacancies automatically with the next
nignest candidate In tho primary,

Villa's Financier.
NORTH LOlP, Neb., June 5G.-T0 tho
Editor of The Bee: Suddenly Villa ap
peared upon the political horlson of
Mexico. Havo you ever thought that In
moving an army and supplying the samo
requires cash? Villa, since his rise and
advancement to fame, has spent probably
SO.0,0O9. Who Is the Invisible and un
known financier? Mexico did. not tut Ish
tho money by taxation, because It was
Insolvent and without crops. Someone put
up the cash to buy guns, ammunition,
rations and pay the soldiers. What busi
ness can you think of that runs without
credit and cash? Did the money come
from Uncle Ham? Wo have heard of no.
loans from him. What foreign power
gavo tho cash? Wo have heard of none.
The revolutions of Mexico have gen
erally bton financed from Wall street.
How many of you would loan Villa a.
dollar, thinking he could servo you? We
know that lie has had and Is now getting
tho cash. Did you over stop to think that
some great financial house has been
secretly handln out that cash? Do you
think that Wall street has become so
generous of recent months, as to take
pity on the poor Mexicans and civilise
them? Would It not bo moro sensible to
suppoee that the I5O.000.C00 has been
handed out In exchange for certain nat
ural resources when Villa conquers the
republic? But oven that agreement with
Villa would not be worth the paper on
which It was written were thers not an
assurance thut the United States should
O.K. the obligation for the cash. Before
the cash went to Villa someone guaran
teed tho tervlcen of the government to
bind the obligation.
Wo talk about saluting the flag at
Vera Crut and thereby Involving the
death of seventeen boys In honor of the
nation. Who believes It? It was a guar
anty of Villa's obligation to the unseen
financier. The glittering generalities of
Judgo Stark elaborated in a democratic
paper should fool no one. lie was prob
ably requested to do It. On how many
occasions have wo heard, "The ox know
eth his owner and the nss his master's
crib?" Havo you over heard of Standard
Oil? They also have it down In Mexico.
But, how about dollar diplomacy? Not
much dollar diplomacy with you little
fellows who Invested down there. But
what about the editors who have been
so liberal with space to Villa, In adver
tising that well known brand of oil?

Editor of Tho Bee: Under the caption
"Jones, He Pays the Freight," In today's
Bee, gives the groundwork of who pays
tho freight a proper setting when it re
fers to Mr. Vlttmato Consumer." Of-
courso Mr. Consumer pays the freight.
The burden Is on his shoulders and there
is no law that can bo enacted that will
relieve him of that burden. He not only
pays the freight; but ho pays the pro
ducer; he pays the salary of every clerk:
of every traveling salesman, and their
traveling expenses; he pays the wages

farm, afid there la no earthly.' tise for

have been stuck for s,ome $12,000,000, be

every dollar of the sum already and will
nevor get a slnglo cent of It back; and
what of these seventeen railroads con
cerned In this ruling? Will they not,
like Standard Oil company, devise some
method whereby they can make It alt
back, with Interest, In a few days?
yes, "Mr, Ultimate Consumer," you
are the fellow that pays tho freight, no
matter what your occupation may be.
If you are a farmer you consume all the
profits and much more of your own
products. If you are a trade'sman It
Is the same with you, Just as It Is with

Where Society Mres In Hats.
Our friends, the Britons, have hit upon a new and
novel fad. which may be expected soon to catch on
in America, whose smart set scemsJust smart enough
to keep close on the trail of some Europeans. Tbls
fad Is for society folk to buy and occupy cottages of
the poor. They tako the humble hut as It Is per
haps some peasant has been evicted from It spruce
It up a bit, but not so as to remove Its rustic ap
pearance, convert a potato patch Into an orchard,
plant a few bulbs about and nestle down. Horace It
was who said something about pale death with Im
partial knocking "at the hut of the poor and the
palaces of kings." Now, one might think that this
fad were a fine thing for the poor; that with the
proceeds derived from the sale the poor might go and
build a better house. No such Impartiality. Often
It Is death of a different kind than mortal to htm.
Commodious homes are not being built for evicted

Europe In the Grip of Fund Problem.
All Europe Is feeling the acute pains of the prob
lem of food and Its cost, but Just now there Is much
agitation oyer England's situation In particular. Lo
cally, the anxiety revolves around the failure of somo
crops this spring. Meat, both cattle and pigs they
do not say hogs In England-continues to rise. The
English farmer Is turning his mind toward the feasi
bility of going in more for live stock raising. He sees
a great future In this, especially with the meat sup
ply at home and in the Argentine diminishing In
comparison with the demand. He see. Japan eating
moro meat than over, and, being the good friend
and ally of J. Bull, buying much of his meat from
England. Ho feels sure It will pay him to finish up
a steer or two every season, you know. Here Is an
Interesting thing to note In connection with England s
farm situation. Many 'of the farmers are not raising
much hay because of the growing multiplicity of au
tomobiles, which don't consume a vast amount ot
hay. Never thought of that? Industrial England as
well as other Industrial countries of Continental
Europe have, however, to look more and more toward
tho pastoral countries for their food supplies and
where mora than the United States? But, alas, the
United States Is disappointing them Just now, for
though still somewhat of a world's bread basket. It
has lapsed relatively In Its labor of feeding all lands,
Hen. Hep, the Boys Are M urchin sr.
Sure. Ireland la nuiiaing up its army, xne insn
volunteers of the south and west now number 60,000,
and have been duly recognized by the Ancient Order
ot Hibernians. They are looking further for official
recognition by the nationalist parliamentary party In
England, which to all practical purposes Is now at
hand. Joseph Devlin was supposed to be the original
"good angel," so far as Inspiration goes, of this move
ment, but now It is said that this assumption lacks
warrant entirely; that the volunteer movement arose
absolutely from a circle of obscure patriots, who had
no connection with any political or public organisa
tion, This new army, as we say, now numbers 60,000
and Is steadily growing. It Is as yet nowhere near as
largo as the Ulster Volunteers, but It Is already
formidable. The Irishman of South and West Ireland
Is admittedly a soldierly fellow. And under the stress
of present conditions he does not lack for the fervor

The Awakening; of India.
Even though It be admitted that England has at
last succeeded In Its prolonged attempt to rouse
India from its age-old sleep of Ignorance and super
stition to a sense of national being, on the face of
returns the completion of the task Is yet far off.
For England has only thus far got India to see this
much, that though it deslro national power and au
thority, It knows of no better means of conquest than
by assassination. India's eyes may be said only to
have been barely opened. The vision of real modern
government la a thing fctlll of the futuro with it.
enveloped as yet In the mists or a mirage it wots
not of. And what wonder, considering the ancient
conditions and then those Imposed under tho British
rule In India, which calls for no comment here. It
would be strange, indeed, to Imagine that the Hindu
or Mohammedan, the abject slave at best to caste.
could get any coherent idea or nationality tnrougn
his experiences to date. Europe U talking a good
deal of "India's smoldering revolt," and charges It
up largely to the "Indian terrorists," who pursue
anarchy In Us most violent form under foreign In
spiration. And there the theorizing stops, for It would
be Indelicate to attempt to fix tne responsiDiiity tor
this Inspiration on any particular foreign country or
people.
