President Wilson's luck does not soem to

directors nt tho helm. As the federal reserve
board Is constituted, five memberships are to
be filled by appointmont of tho president, and
four of tho president's selections have already
gono by tho board. His tender of the headship
of tho board to Richard Olney wna perhaps

namely, from Mr. Wheeler of Chicago, Mr. War

The Ex-Senator's Two-Edged Sword.
Former United States Senator William V.
Allon has written, nnd mado public, a lengthy
lettor endorsing Richard h. Metcalfe for tho
democratic nomination for govornor. Inci
dentally, among fragrant nosegays thrown
broadcast in it at distinguished democrats, In
cluding William J. Bryan, he inserts this little
shaft almod at somebody: m ,
No oho In deceived by the cnnflldato who pledges
himself to a single term of office, becnuito It l well
understood that If a mnn has served his state nr
nation faithfully and well, he Is entitled to an en
dorsement at tho hands of his constituents, and that
such pledges are mado simply for the purpose of
getting votes that could not otherwise be obtained.
It Is of tho cheap-John order nnd should not be In
dulged In by those worthy of high positions.
With no doslro to question the truth of tho
senator's blunt words, wo wonder It he had in
mind more thnn ono offender to whom thoy ap
ply. Just to refronh tho public's memory, let us
qtioto this oxcorpt from the letter of acceptance
written by William Jonnlngs Dryan on tho oc
casion of his first presidential nomination:
Ho deeply am I Impressed with tho magnitude of
the power vented by the constitution In the chief
executlvo of the nation and with the enormous lnflit-
onco he can wield for the benefit or Injury ot the
people that I wish to enter tho office, If elected,, freo
from every personal doslro except the desire O
prove worthy of the confidence of my countrymen.
Human Judgment Is fallible enough when unbiased
by selfish, considerations, and, in order that I may
not be tempted to use the patronago of tho office to
advance any personal ambition, I hereby announce,
with all tho emphasis which words can express, my
fixed determination not, under any circumstances,
to bo a candidate for re-election. In case this cam
paign results In nfr election.
Really, does It mako any difference whothor
a candidate pledges himself to a single term In
order to got tho office of governor or in ordor to
got votes for president? Or, to put the ques
tion in another way, Did the ox-sonator know
ho wan cutting with a two-edged sword?.
A Well Earned Compliment.
Tho re-oloction ot Superintendent 'Graff by
unanimous vote of tho School board for another
term ot throo years, notwithstanding tho recent
efforts to displace him, Is a compliment of
which ho mny well fool proud. When Mr.
raff was elevatod to his present position It was
well understood that tho promotion was tn a
measure experimental, depending upon his abil
ity to mako good In supervisory capacity, his
previous work having been as principal of the
high school. It may bo said, without fear of
contradiction, that Superintendent Graff has
grown noticeably in his grasp of our school
probloms, and his hold upon tho touching force,
und that with his assured tenure,; he should be
able to do still hotter work for tho schools.
The Bole for George Fred.
The St, Louis Republic soems to size up the
case of George Fred Williams about right. It
holds that Goorgo Fred's resignation as our
minister plenipotentiary to Groove need ' not
mako tho slightest change in his plans and
status as on independent; sovereign and au
tonomous xnembor ot tho sisterhood of nations,
a single-handed Hague tribunal all by himself,
tho mediator ot international disputes and ha
ranguos. First, lot It bo notod that George Fred's
chiof offense was circularizing Europoan coun
tries, offering his services as mediator In the
Albanian 'crisis. Thus hp constituted himself a
tree lance among tho nations, a nation within
himself, and thus may he continue o exist.
White out of line with the accepted rules ot the
game. of diplomacy, no one accuses George Fred
ot protending to act the part ot a diplomat, So,
let the powers ot continental Europe not over
look their opportunity. If they want the Al
banian crisis settled, hero Is their settler. At,
perchance, they desire permanent and assured
peace in tho Balkans, why here, again, Is their
man. Let thorn turn tho Job over to George Fred
and It Is done. Or, presto, it Albania would like
to have a real king, one with opinions that oven
tho seal ot a diplomatic office cannot silence and
hold back, why, here, Indeed, is Us sovereign
already crowded.
The exigencies' of the case make it necessary
for Mr. Bryan to enduro tho retirement ot his
old friend and fellow warrior In that famous
"First Battle," aye, and the second, too, but
there is little doubt that he would be glad to
recommend him tor either of these roles which
he is. pre-eminently qualified to till.

HAKTINOTON, Neb., July 7. To the
Kdltor of The Bee. I quote the follow
ing paragraph from the communication
In The Bee of July 2-
I wan considerably surprised Upon read
ing an Item in The Bee In regard to the
demands upon General Carranca. This
sptctftclo of a nation whose very founda
tion In laid on tho rock of religious liberty,
demanding of a sister nation that It re
saddle Itself with an Institution that has
become obnoxious to It Is enough to
ma"ke the gods turn In dArlnlon.
The communication Is signed F. Cath
erine Clark. From her referring to the
gods, 1 take this woman to be a pagan.
Be that an It may, sho In laboring under
a misapprehension. Mexico has had no
established church since July 11, 1869
fifty-five yearn. The prcvalllnc religion
Is tho Roman Catholic, but the, church Is
Independent of the state, and there Is
toleration ot all religions. President
Wilson Is Btandlng for Just what Miss
or Mrs. Clark Is standing for, universal
religious toleration, Catholics to receive
the same treatment as other religions.
Carranxa wishes to confiscate all Catholic
church prpperty used for religious pur
poses, and to drlvo the Catholic priests
out of Mexico. Under the law as It Is,
and iu It has been for more years than
moat of us have lived, no ecclesiastical
Institution can acquire landed property.
What Carranza Is demanding, would bo
llko. a demand by President Wilson that
nil Methodist preachers leave the United
States and turn over all churches and ult
church furniture to the government. I
refer ta tho Statesman's Year Book of
MM, for the truth of my statements as to
conditions In Mexico. But I will not be
drawn Into n. controversy; and no provo
cation will Induce mo to write on tho
subject again. WILBUR P. BRYANT.
Tomorrow.
OMAHA. July 7. To the Editor of The
Bcel A man Is never more completely
deceived than when he Imagines himself
ablo to perform tomorrow what could not
be dono today. The Idea that n man will'
forsake his ovll habits tomorrow and
choose a 'better course of life than he
runs today Is a deep-seated and danger
ous delusion, and the chances are that
what we do one day we will do the next,
and tomorrow will find us with the same
habits and desires as we havo today. To
night we sit at tho table with bloated
stomachs putting down shell fish and
mushrooms, and spending a third of our
day's pay In order that our reputation as
a. "game sport" will suffer no relapse.
But tomorrow ob, yes, tomorrow wo are
going to turn a new leaf and start a
savings account. Tonight wei sit in the
theater or execute the various contortions
of the latest eraiy dance until the fires
of lust almost burn the heart t6 a cinder;
but tomorrow we Intend to make an ex
haustive, study of the gospels, learn to
subdue our passions and lend an attentive
car to tho voice ot wisdom. But by tho
time the sun sets tomorrow our pious
resolutions will have faded away like the
dreams ot an ontum eater.
, Thus the years, of llfo wear a,way while
" Buuii)i. uui ,n vei new pro
posals for amendment on the morrow,
and then when tomorrow comes reject
all bids, settle back on the old founda.
tlon and, begin our salutary schemes all
over again.
Yet the notion that great. things can be
dono tomorrow Is not all a delusion, pro
viding we realize the weakness of flesh
and blood and put our trust In Clod, who
Is able to stimulate our trembling reso
lutions, strengthen our moral desires and
support our feeble efforts In tho practice
ot Piety. E. O. M'INTOSII.

OMAHA, July 5. To the Editor of The
Bee: I havo waited several days to see
If anyone' would call Slsler Munson's at
tention to the fact that her advertisement
of the achievement ot women In politics
In Colorado need have little weight In
Nebraska.
She boasts as the result of the Colo,
rado women getting the vote that Colo
rado now has laws that provide for com
pulsory education, to make parents re
sponsible for their children, fixing the
age of consent at 18, and prohibiting child
labor, all due to the suffrage.
If she had taken a little time beforo
the left her Kansas home and had looked
up the facts In the case, sho would havo
discovered that Nebraska has all the
laws she ascribes to woman's Influence
In Colorado polities, and that they are
well enforced and observed, and that. all
were passed by men. and In every'tn
stance before Colorado put them on the
statute hooks, with the single exception
of the Juvenile court law. whose utility
In Nebraska may well bo doubted.
Several years ago the women of Ne
braska employed an Omaha lawyer to
draft a new law governing the descent of
property, that the widow might be better
protected in her property rights, which
law waa passed by a legislature com
posed exclusively of men, and signed by
a male governor with the result that
woman Is better protected In her prop
erty tights than man In Nebraska at
present Could "votes for women" have
dono more fotf woman's protection than
has been accomplished In Nebraska?
Somo reason may exist -for giving
woman the privilege of votlnR In Ne
braska, but It is not because she does
not have her full share of rights under
-the laws of the state. M. J. WILSON.
Unanimous for Huerta.,
The Bee's cartoonist has admirably ensed
the humor and travesty ot the so-called Mexican
election. With Huorta guarding the ballot box
to. see that all the votes are duly cast for him
and Huerta as each of the voters the picture
tells the story. Under orders ot the chief, as
placarded. on the wall, the three dummies march
around In an endless circle before the ballot box
putting In the tickets until tho dictator. Joyfully
proclaims himself unanimously re-elected.
The burlesque of it all Is thrown Into bolder
relief against the background ot the fact that It
Is almost a year and a halt since the president
ot the United States called on this old medieval
usurper to "resign: and still we are calmly and
watchfully waiting whtlo Huerta Indulges him
self in this interesting sport ot a "presidential
election." .
Millions Up Smokestack:
Facts About Your Goal Bill
Wilson and Women
Philadelphia Ledger: It Is clear the
pmddeut does not think women will have
the vote at least by 1916.
Washington Post: Ardent suffragist ad.
vocates surely do not wish to deprive the
administration of the last plank in Its
platform.
piobe-Demoorat: On the woman suf
frage question President Wilson stands
by the Baltimore ? platform. On other
questions the platform la not so signifi
cant.
Philadelphia Inquirer; The president re
fused to be "croM-examlned" by women,
but he won't be able to waive It when
he appears before a Jury of public opinion
at the next election.
Smokf n Wmlit nr Fuel.
Tills does not mean that the visible smoke Is the
measure of your waste, for much more Invisible heat
often escapes without performing Its functions than
the smoko would amount to If It had been1 entlrel
consumed. A chimney Issuing dense volume's of smoke, whlto
formerly considered as a symbol of Industry, Is now
known to be a symbol of inefficiency or Ignorance
and Increase In manufacturing no longer necessitates
an Increase In smoko.
"There Is always some fire where there Is smoke,'
and with perfect combustion you need not have
smoke, arc both still true; but you may have CO per
cent Inefficiency or loss of heat, with perfect com
bustion, and hence my story.
Tell me what Omaha's coal bill Is and I will tell you
what her waste Is, or In other words the average
avoidable fuel waste In small boiler ;'nU is about
10 per cent. This Is not measured by tho smoke
visible at the top ot the staock, for It Is well known'
that these volatile and not easily combustible gases'
have little heat value. There may be perfect com
bustion with only CO per cent efficiency, and no
smoke!
Every business ma.i knows what last month's coal
bill was. Scientific doslgn and construction of the
furnace and grates, and proper Instruction and train
ing of the firemen as to the details of firing, and
eternal vigilance Is the cost of not liberty this time
but the efficiency of the boiler plant. Buying cheap
coal won't do. Hiring cheaper men won't do. Some
times the cheapest of both are the best, but usually
tho highest priced ones are the cheapest.
Need of Intelligent FIHiik.
The successful business man makes the mistake of
thinking that because he Is successful in his general
business, ho must be equally capable ot Judging what
Is best as to the details of his boiler plant, but
neither his Judgment nor smoke ordinances nor the
stoker salesman's guarantees nor the coal price will
give the desired results unless the firing Is done
scientifically and Intelligently, and the furnace 1b
properly designed and controlled.
Tho remedy Is easily within the reach of anyone.
The degree of present ''sickness" or Inefficiency can
readily be arrived at by a test showing pounds of
coal burned for pounds of water evaporated Into
steam under certain conditions; and foolish con
tracts with agents, guaranteeing percentages of coal
saved with their equipment need not be bothered
with by tho busy man. Fiery arguments with the
engineer or fireman as to the wherefore ot last
month's coal bill being larger than tho provlous ono
don't help, for these won't evaporate water In the
boiler or remedy defects In the furnace, or the quality
of the coal, or train the fireman; but all these
things can be done surely and definitely, and tho
degree of same measured In results of actual per
formance. An Important Influence In reducing the amount ot
smoko alone would be the Improvement of the meth
ods followed by Indifferent firemen. This can be
brought abotft by personal Instructions and occa
sional performance tests ot Just a general nature
to show these firemen the comparative results of
their work, and thus give them some Inkling of what
they aro actually working for. They will grow to
take an Interest In their work, and to welcome tests
to see how much better they are doing, and If they
are ready for "firing," and you can'tT afford to keep
them regardless ot lovable dispositions or cheap
prices. ' '
Good nnd find lOfflcleuoy Teats.
A recent test (or rather half a test) costing not less
than $200 was carried on In Omaha to enable a stoker
manufacturer to sell his apparatus; It resulted tn a
farce because the owner did not know how efficient
his present plant was, or how to make a contract
for a better one, but he was brave enough to at
tempt It, and to foot a part of the bill without any
other result or the reasonable assurance of any.
In order that Denver might not lose her reputa
tion as a city of magnificent mountain panorama
and clear skies, the art commission recently trans
mitted a report to the city council asking that defi
nite action be taken to protect same, and suggesting'
the, following measures; Appointment of three me
clianlcal engineers to serve without pay as advisors
to the smoke inspector; reference ot new plans or
changes ot boiler plants to the smoke Inspector for
approval before a building permit Is Issued; exam
ination and license of firemen recording, and in
spection of boiler plants, and development of a sys
tem" ot observation 'and record for violators.
It Is further related that the largest power plant
emits no smoke; ono ot the largest office buildings,
after the Installation of efficient devices, and the
adoption of Improved methods, consumes about half
as much fuel In 1914 as It did In 1901, under prac
tically same conditions of service; one of the city
plants at the county hospital has been Improved
recently by .Installing a smoke-prpventlng furnace,
with the result that the stack ts now practically
smokeless, and the economy of the plant has been
Increased about 20 per cent.
Omaha and every other town certainly wants to
save these losses In boiler plant efficiency, and Inci
dentally eliminate the smoke nuisance. Why not
"get a real move on' before winter Is again with ust

Little Wendell Holmes Emerson ot Boston was
resting sedately with his book in the park shortly
after a picnic dinner. He had eaten too, much. Ifo
knew perfectly well he had eaten 'too much and he
was very much surprised and shocked at himself.
He prayed fervently that no one would notice his
condlUon.
Just then a kindly old woman Appeared and sat
down beside him. -"Ah." thought Wendell, " I have
sadly Injured her esthetic sensibilities."
By this time the old woman was firmly settled.
'My little boy," said she. "are you over eight?"
It was wondertul to see how the young Mr. Emer
