The rerslatence of the dmorrals In cinlining the avoidance of war by tbe 1'nltcd Stntra to be due aolely to the prceldent'e ollrlpa doea thnm but little credit. AStuteneaa, once an attribute of the leaders of !ie president's party, aretng to have been abandoned In a denperate attempt to support bis popularity by arraying bini tn tbe mantle of the prophet whose voice has eaved his nation. This pretense Is too dlnplianoug to de reive anybody. President Wilson undoubtodly la tn favor of peace, but In this be hns the unani mous support of all bis country. No one wants war, and all are eager to avoid It, and no coun try wants us to be at war either wth them or against them. Tho most active and effeotlve support the president has had in his efforts to preserve peace has come from his political op ponents. In hi momenta of trial, when tho Clouds had gathered thick over the nation's psth, the president was upheld by press and public, without regard to political division. Any effort to make political capital out of this national Impulse will not succeed. Tbe presi dent'! administration will be tried on other Issues, of which there are plenty, and against which the democrats are Just now hopeless of preparing adequate defense. Making the Loan Look Good. Fiscal agents for the Allies aro JubI now en gaged In the Interesting work of securing sup port from the Investing public for the half-bllllon-dollar lonn to bo floated on this side of the ocean. Tbe Int'-rest rate has been fixed at such figure as to make the issue quite attractive as an Investment, a governmont bpnd yielding R'.i per cent being uncommon In tbeso days of plethoric purses. Other features have been added to serve as Inducements to tho dollars that are so ardently desired. Especially Is the press agent's work being well done, so that men of means are being appealed to from every pos sible angle. If the money Is not charmed out of the pockets of tbe public, It "HI not be be cause the campaign was not skilfully planned and adroitly carried out. The money-masters of Wall street know their business, as has been demonstrated on many another occasion. What Our Chemists Can Do. Ilerent events have taught Anirricaus mod esty, If not humility, when It comes to talking about war. The cultured nations of Europe have shown us such wonderful ways of obliter ating whole armies, of permanently altering the landscape, of overwhelming crowded cities and demolishing stately vesels, that we have lost some of our natlonnl cockiness. However, here cornea some sustenance for our self-respect, direct from a meeting of chemists at San Fran cisco. In closing the soKsion of a gas congress one of the experts pointed out tbat anything tbe Europeans may have achieved Is also possible for the Americans. Jay, more; he said that by the time war could be declared on us, and the fighting actually commenced, some of the pro cesses now being exploited, such as the use of chlorine gas, would be obsolete. Instead of tbat crude, coarse method of asphyxiating soldier, we may have our choice between arsenuretted hydrogen plain, or combined with hydrocyanic geld, the effect,! of which would bo to do away with any Invading force tas completely as was tha army of Sennacherib, when "the Death Angel breathed in the face of tbe foe as be passed." Thus Is the genius of American science and tbe fruits of American research brought to the relief of any apprehensions tbat might have been slowly consuming the over-anxious public. Whllo yet we have our chemists and our gaa mains, we are comparatively safe. Some Applet I For Nebraska we boast about our corn and pur tattle, our bogs and our alfalfa, but we m ift not forget to boast about our apples. Hero la authentic testimony as to what aro believed to be the largest apples ever zrowu la York county, verified by ocular exhibition of the apples, to gether with the name and address ot the grower, In the thriving town of York: There aro elittit apples In the exhibit. They welg-ii ten pounds. One of the apple wogha tenty-lwo ouneea and meaaure mure than fifteen tnc.hea In cir cumference Some apples, say we! Not produced every year even In Nebraska, to be sure, but the eelf- styled red apple countries will have to speed up to keen tn a higher class, Armed Neutrality a Failure. Such meager Information as seeps through from the Balkans serves to support the conclu sion that armed neutrality is an empty phrase there, so far as maintenance ot peace Is con cerned. At any rate, It hut no force In binding the' turbulent peoples of the little countries tn tbe hinterland of Europe to any preservation of tranquility, Bulgaria's moUlllxatlon was fol lowed by similar preparations in Greece and the threat tbat Koumanta would also get ready for eventualities. These have y-ansplrcd, tn border clashes between Serbs and Uu'.gara, which may be but the prelude to the general engagement. Each aide to the general war has Its special reasons for Involving Die Balkan nations in the struggle, aud each has connived and Intrigued to gain the support sought. To the Oermans It meant access to and possible aid to the Turks; to tbe Quadruple Euteute it niont another op portunity to attack the central allies. Tbtsae ends, minor in comparison to some cf tbe more outstanding features of the war, are important factors in tbe general strategy, and the partici pation of tbe Balkans in the conflict has been inevitable for months. So the bollowncss of "armed neutrality" la sounded by tbe actual facts. Mpi Vt I t MUtMlUlflA Dramatizing Billy Sunday literary Dlreat.

Here are a few of Oh pet names the knockers are gtitni him. Mountebank," vjwbefi "Fraud." Clown." "Acrobat," "Liar."

Wherever "Billy Sunday appears the algn, 8, ft O. la tacked oven the main entrance, gtandlng Room Only," and he holds tho crowd, lie brings, a message. It may not be. clothed In the finest ef oratory, for It la. the Tatfooted. square toed sort right eft the bat, hitting tha bull's-eye and ringing tha bell.

EDWIN M. 8 ICARUS. Brighten Yonr Corner, MORSE BLUFF, Neb., Sept 30. To the Editor ef The Pee) In your "Aimed at Omaha" articles In this morning's paper the following appeared: Stiver Creek Hand: It Is to he hoped that within the neat couple week t at umana papera will do wortn reading. "Billy" Bunday'a rot Is disgusting and ?iopl who pay their money In advanoo or tha ttapera are entitled to a financial rebate, ... The writer findg just as much news at the present time in The Be a ever. and while Mr. Sunday's sermons are published, the pages of your paper are Increased and w get all the news Juat the sum, Further, it la not at all corn- puleory that the editor ef the Silver Creek Sand read these sermons. I feel aatisfled there are a great many more of your radre who do read the Sunday articles than there are that don't - . I have read the Silver Creek Sand on different occasions and all en Is alio to get - out of It is a rehash of other city papers' preaa dispatches - and the Interesting facta that "Seth. Whltcomb bought a new brlndle cow," or "Joshua Jenkins Is visiting friends In Duncan." eta. The Bee's Letter Box seems to be contributed to more by some certain Silver Creek partiea than any ona else and In my experlenoe I have never rend any of their articles that over had a good word for any en or anything, and I would suggeat that these parties re frain from saying anything at all when they cannot say something good, and It certainly ought to benefit the community ef Silver Creek If their editor would come to Omaha, attend the Sunday meet ings and "hit the trail." It should at least cause hlra to "bury his hammer," and possibly Improved th Sliver Creek Blind and "brighten the comer where he lives." C. O.
