Suppose we let the debate rest temporarily as to which la the higher type of civilisation, Teuton or Slav. .The newspapers known as chronlo fakers are busy now trying to convince people they are not faking all the time.

Sir Tom Lip ton bus withdrawn his yachts from the American cup race on account of the war. Because "Mike" Lee was permitted to soli out Greater Omaha once Is no good reason wby be should be given a chance to do the sell-out art again. When a newspaper that fakes It day In and day out tries to tell you it bas reformed und is no longer faking, take what It says with a grain of Allowance. Greater Omaha Is bound to come, but It will not be expedited by sending sell-outs to Lincoln to trade off our consolidation law for salaried Jobs for themselves. While the Interstate Commerce commlsalon raises rates, the Nebraska ftate Commerce com mission attempts to reduce them. That should ten tb.lp.gs up a trifle. Now if T.

One of the shining lights on the water marked slate was kicked out of the legislature not many yeara ago for pernicious activity as a hold-up lobbyist.

Arthur, trend nhif r K- nmikHhj U Looonvotlve Eagtueeia, aad hU eon era here, being entertained by the englneera during their atay Dreading the Responsibilitj. Already European nations begin to dread the responHlblllty of the threatened slaughter. Their faces shorn of the mask of peaceful pre tense, yet reveal the fear of consequnces. Ger many thus ee-rly Issues its "White Book," ex plaining the progress of events leading to wwr In Justification of Its course. Each nation tn turn blames the other. A cartoonist who senses the situation shows Austria pointing a scornful finger at Servla and Bervla at Austria: Russia, France, England and Belgium at Germany and Germany at Russia, while., Italy strvnds with arms folded In the background. But fixing the blame Is the task of history. It probably will divide the responsibility as be tween the several nations so long engaged in mounting momentous machinery of destruction and desolation. Europe has been sitting for years at the mouth of a volcano awaiting the eruption. Too many monarchs evidently have bt'en seeking a means of vindicating their mad military policies for any one to be solely at fault. Now, the war lorde seem to have de creed the time has come to demonstrate the necessity end, therefore, the wisdom, of their extravagant systems. A National Sorrow. While heultatlng to Intrude upon the sacred nces of the president's grief, the American peo ple share the affliction that death lays upon the official head of their nation. They sorrow with the president and those about him bereft of wife end mother. Mingled with their sorrow Is the spirit of admiration for the unmurmuring fortitude with which the approaching Inevitable was endured in the privacy of the family circle. Mrs. Wilson was said to have been one of the most accomplished and capable women to whom the honor of being "first lady of the land," ever came. Yet she lived her attainments largely In the quieter seclusion from public ity, not without extending her Influence and her works through channels of human need. She was one of the wives who rendered practical help and service to the devoted husband on whom devolved the stern duties of a chief mag istry. Her legacy to the country, therefore, lies chiefly In the example of the worthiness of woman exalted and exalting her sphere. "Unea.7 Lie. th Had." Once more the cry of "God save the king" hs more than an empty meaning in Europe. The biggest stake In the present war is monarch ical government. Napoleon III tripped lightly off to meet Von Moltke's army, and the French republic rose from the ruins of the struggle. In America,. at lout, the belief will not down that this Is chiefly a war of royalty. Long have the masses been oppressed by the burden of mlU ltarlsm and the high cost of living that war might come. . Strange people they are to covet such conditions. .. "Qod save .the king" is no vain cry today, at least with the. king.' . ' ' , . i The Value of Control. The opposing pitchers in a twenty-one- inning game of base ball, the Messrs. Rube Mar quard and Babe Adama. when asked .what they regarded as tbe chief element of their achieve ment, replied alike: "Control." They both expressed the feeling they could have thrown every ball pitched Into a tincup. The peerless Mathewson Is made great be cause of his control. 80 Is every other (rest pitcher. Youngsters aspiring to fame In the box on base ball diamonds make the fatal mis take if they fail to put control above every other factor of their work. They may have all the curves and speed there Is, but without control they will go back every time. So It is in every other game of life, the fel low without control of his own powers falls. Only he who has It wins. It has been so all through history. Mighty men have vanquished tbelr hosts In battle, destroyed or built empires and wept for larger conquests, yet lacking tbe power of self-control, been consumed at last by selfish lusts. "He that ruleth his own spirit Is greater than he that taketh a city," Perhaps If there had been more of this power of self-control among. some of the treat monarchs of Europe war would not now be darkening the universal sky. In tbe big as well as the little channels of life this ptjwef of self-control shows Itself nowhere more conspicuously than In the ability to ward off or Ignore purely personal affronts without magnifying them beyond all . sensible proportions Into causes of bitterness and war. Men too -often mistake power for the vain ex hibition of force or might. Power may be both developed and demonstrated best by rational conservation then a wild exercise of it. 'The Pace of Prog-reis. A scientist recently predicted ' as the next step in wireless development telephonic commu nications across the seaa. Wbo will doubt It? Head your war news of the day and note the prominence given to the failure of steamers heading Into port without having signalled their approach by wireless for fear of disclosing their positions to an enemy. The idea of a ship captain doing such a thing in this day and age!' Yet only yesterday Marconi, still a young man, was dreaming out his secret. Who knows what we may not next do with the mysteries of science? The war has already caused a treat rush locally of foreign-born to take out American citlsenshlp papers. That makes District Court Clerk Robert Smith smile as he contemplates pocketing the plethora of naturalisation fees In addition to his If ,000-a-year salary. Those cotes exchanged by Nicholas and Wil liam, couched la the solemn style and endearing terms, read a good deal like the effusions of two rital society beaux with their bands behind them respectively clutching a nice, sharp hatchet.

(.-To tha Editor of The Bee: I am very much aurprtaed at read Ins a letter In your letter box written by Mr. MrChrlstaJ. to think that there wis ever an Irishman Of ha Is an Irish man) with such views. Ireland has been fighting for home rule for a rood many yeara. and yet any time England waa in trouble tha Jrle.li forgot their troublea and helped out the mother country, aa I hope they always will. I waa born there myeelf and consider myself aa good Irish aa ever waa. I, have two uncles, as good Catholics aa ever wore brogane one In the Ennle klllen Dragoons and one In tha Dublin Fulllrrs a brother who has juat served twelve yeara In the British navy and will go out again as a member of tha re serve; a brother-in-law, who la an officer In the Prltlfh navy, and a father who served fifteen years in the British navy. Kvery one of them wants home rule, but dlvll the bit will that Interfere with their fighting for the old country. In hla letter to you ha aaya: "Yea. In the name of Uod, render tip tha scepter of authority to some other Irishman, who will wield It mora effectively for tha honor of Old Ireland and for the glory of the Gael." That doea not sound Irish to me, and a better leader than John Redmond for the Irish never was yet, and he did just exactly aa any leader of the Irish, who waa worthy to be a leader, would do In audi circumstances. Tha sentence, "Kngland'a difficulties ara Ira land'a opportunities." which he uses, was never meant to be used In thla sense. As he aaya, John Redmond's honor and Intergrity as an Irish patriot waa tested, and he responded Juat aa a good Irish man should and just as good Irish always will. I have talked with acveral good Irishmen In Omaha, and every one of the young ones said he did Juat right. I have eerved three years with the United Btates cavalry. Second regiment, but If I was in the old country now, chancea ara I would be In the midst of tha trouble with the reat of the family, because I haven't any more sense than they have. WILLIAM I LAMB. Lettera from a Political lleathea Mexico. SOMEWHERE, Aug. S.-To tha Editor of The Bee: Tea, the French occupation of Mexico waa a part of the slaveholders' rebellion. The last battle of our civil war waa fought at Queretaro, Mexico on May IS, 18ET, where and when Juares, Central Escobedo captured Maximilian of Mapaburg and hla army. Had there been no secession there would have been no occupation. The California copperhead. Dr. Gwln (Ea-L'nlted States senator), waa Imprisoned for disloyalty, after tha suspenalon of the writ of habeas corpus. Owln, Judge Terry, with there, were try ing to Induce California and Oregon to secede and found the Pacifio republic, Terry, upon tha defeat of this schema, entered the confederate army. Owtn upon his release went to Mexloo and was checked by juwl with the Archduke Maximilian. Owln was a native of tha south and aought to establish a colony of southerners In tbe Mexican state of Beriora. He trotted back and forth be tween the Tullerlea and the City of Mexico. After Maximilian's death he still stuck to hla colony project. Though he had ceased to be an American clUsen by accepting a . title of nobility duke of Sonora from Maxlmilan. he waa back tn California In 1STS howling for Tilden and reform. At tha collapse of the con federacy, the acientlst, Matthew Fontaine Maury, the dress parade General Sterling Price and John Bankhead Masrruder crosaad the Rio Grande and Joined Maxi milian. They were promised lands and peons In lieu of their lost slaves. If Johnaon had not flopped and begun par doning men who bad forfeited all right, except in the words of Douglas "what they could maintain at tha point of the bayonet." If wa has followed the rule of Vae Vtctla, the rebels would have flocked Into Mexico, Sheridan wolld have en Joyed the luxury of whipping them again, peonage and tha laat relic of barbarism would have bean wiped off tha continent; and President Wilson would not have confronted the problem ha faces today. For tha end la not yet DEB HEIDE.

Where ba your aermona now, oh, Woodrow Wilaon, where your dollars, Andrew Carnegie? The world haa a long way to travel before It reaches the Mount of Olives. Lo. we build a bouse of cards In the low country. Comes a wind across the North sea In a moment to blow ft down. Comas a blast from the hell tha Hapsburgs made snd not a stone remalne. Truly the Home of Tragedy! A race accursed of God! Waa It not eiough that self slaughter and the assassin had done to work the devil's will on tha Danube that a desolate oid man should be left to end the drama with a conflagra tion sweeping across the Rhine to the Rhone and the Seine, to the Severn and the Clyde? What la Servla to England, what to Franca that they ahould bleed for it? And after all la over how ahall the balance Of power stand? It is but a gamble a gamble In the lives of men. the hearta of women and children. The Baroness von Suttner, in one of her books, tells us how she came first to set herself as a priestess of peace. Her Interest took Its rise from several sources First of all, her Immediate experience of tha effect of wars. She saw the flower of Austria's youth brought home either dead or mutilated; she saw the suffering of wives and mothers: she saw that aa a general thing these wars arose out of petty disputes and that very rarely any great principle was at stake. Another thing that has aroused her against militarism was that In all the conversation which aha heard in court circles, wsr was treated simply aa a noble game. The officers spoke of It In the most heartless way, and considered the peasantry aa nothing but pawna and machines, to be used for tnelr winning of the game. She also saw how war continually de stroyed the civilisation that years had gained, , so that the nations were simply going around In a circle. It built up a beautiful structure of mind, soul, and material things during the years of peace, and then proceeded to knock It down again. There then began to come to her a vialon of a new order for tha world, and ahe began a career of splendid effort that ended only in her death a few montha ago. In the twinkling of an eye everything this great woman hated and feared haa come to pass. "It will be the bloodiest of wars," says General Nelson A. Miles, a commanding authority, "and the laat" That la to say. It will be so destructive that there csn never be another. The single abatement of horror is that It cannot be of Kmg duration. 1 We shall soon seo the use and power of the airship and the torpedo boat. There Is reason to believe that the modern cruiser Is . already obsolete and that dreadnaughts and auper-dreadnaughta ar doomed because they can no longer be safe from the submarine at sea nor find security against tha perils In the air above them. On the ocean as In narrow waters they are at the mercy of the submersible torpedo carrier. Sir Percy Scott, In bis forecast ef the future, assuming that submarine uannot fight submarine, sees the end of sea wwifare .altogether. Neither numbers nor skill are to avail. Nothing will live afloat, for, If opposed nations have provided themselves with a sufficiency of submarines, they can destroy everything which cannot hide from these vessels below the surfaca It Is tha human, not tha mechanical, aids of It which is moat at atake In the minds and hearts of disinterested observers; and the extent of this cannot be exaggerated. All theae nations hare been pre paring for this during more than a generation. We may se now the meaning of the antl-mllitariat dis cussions In France; the stubborn refusal of Germany to consider disarmament; the quandary of England. At leaat Germany considers herself prepared. Whether Austria will prove a broken reed, or superior equip ment and soldiership will make good the dlspalty of forces, wbo can tell? May not Parla be In dan ger? Can England and Ruasla unllmber tsulck enough? Only the results the God of Battles can tell us. Crash of Conflict People and Events A turtle caught at Spring Valley, N.
