Straddle that it Almost a Stretch.
our npmocranc nrrinren are at mis juncium
facing a dilemma more annoying than ever be
fore encountered by Inst party. Having miser
ably failed to carry out promises made In their
campaign, such as to reduce the high cost of
living, save money on governmental expense,
and the like, they are now under compulsion of
taking some action to protect American Industry
against European after-the-war competition.
Their antipathy to a protective tariff Is leading
them through many devious ways in search of a
remedy, with little avail. Even the president Is
now understood as being on the point of aban
doning his "ethical" plan for holding the foreign
ers out of the American market, although be is
still looking for a substitute or the tariff.
The policy ot protection, as developed by
successive republican administrations, will not
be lightly set aside. Under It American Indus
tries were fostered and built up, while under the
democratic policy of free trade the manufactur
ing enterprises of the country are seriously
menaced. Coining new phrases, such as the
' dumping" that Is now filling so much of the
official utterances from Washington, will not
niter the situation. The straddle of the admin-
Intration and Its supporters on the tariff ques
tion Is becoming a genuine stretch.
Squirrel Lovers, Up and at Them!
Omaha may soon be the scene of a lively
ruction between two schools of nature lovers.
The Audubon society Is about to declare war on
the red squirrel, alleging that he chatters and
frisks through the forests of the village In such
unseemly manner that the favored feathered
choristers shun our shady avenues and bosky
larks. Mebbe so, but It basn't been proven.
The squirrel Is a busy little scamp, and he frisks
his bushy tall across the paved streets and along
overhead wires in utmost nonchalance. Neither
noisy auto nor fearsome trolley car holds aught
of terror for blm, and from a safe spot on a tree
trunk or a telephone pole, he will scoff at the
most active dog that ever Jumped In futile rage.
He will make his way to the uppermost balcony
of the tallest apartment bouse, and there ac
cept bis ration of ready cracked nuts from the
hands of his fair hostess, and will even enter and
search her home In quest of more. What song
bird has shown this quality of social adaptabil
ity T
We want songsters, but surely the woods are
big enough for them and the squirrels both.
John James Audubon found It so, and it Isn't on
record that be ever advocated killing off one
kind of God's creatures that another might live.
Lets make very sure the little red squirrel
really deserres extermination before we declare
war on him.
Protest Sent to Great Britain.
The long-delayed note of protest to Great
Britain has finally been dispatched from Wash
ington, a special messenger being now on his
tay to London with the document. Its contents
are but measerlv disclosed in tha nntch
from the capital, 6ut are said to follow the lines
of the original memorandum on the topic ot
the order-ln-councll of last February, under
which the British government set up a war sone
rracucally Including the seas of the world, and
totally putting to one side the declaration of
London. The position of the United States was
plainly made known at the time, and since then
rothlng has occurred to even suggest a recession
Irom this attitude. Certain events Have aggra
vated the case, while others have served to delay
the more formal process of diplomatic pro
cedure, now under way. The language of the
tote may be later given to the public, but It la
taken for granted that the president has upheld
tne case or the United States against England
vlth the same firmness as he did in the contro
versy with Germany.
Bankers and Farm Credits.
In bis annual address to the Nebraska Rank.
ers association, President McNish approaches
tne topic of farm credits from a friendly stand-
lolnt, and offers some suggestions that are
worthy of careful consideration. His principal
p oposal is that the matter be left to ataA
lather than to national, legislation for the forma
tion and direction of the agencies through which
the end sought is to be attained. Tha neeri r
tetter means for the flnsnclng of farm opera
tions Is apparent, but the method of supplying
wis wsnt is not so readily determined. Th
bankers have a great interest In the subject, and
are not inclined to hamper any fpaaihU nUn
Their views are surely entitled to consideration,
because of coming from men who are experienced
in aeaung wun matters of credit. The plan for
state rather than national control has attractive
points, but it may be that national supplemented
bf state laws will yet bring the solution.
A decision of wide import comes from the
Wisconsin supreme court, which allows an em
ploye who contracted typhoid fever from water

OMAHA, Oct. 2v To the Editor of Th
Bee: If there la any merit In the Initia
tive and referendum as to at at legisla
tion. It la tha fact thst the queatlons of
woman auffrage, prohHHtlon and moral
matters can be submitted to the people
without party dlvlalon or party recom
mendatlona. In other worda, these ques
tions may be removed from party rancor
and party dlvlalon. They have no proper
place In party platforms and are not Is
sue, for party determination. Men may
honestly differ on these que.tlon. snd be
members of th sam political party.
Thee ara queatlona of amotion and sen
timent, rather than queatlons of govern
ment. During the last fnw years a great
many political fortune hunters and
bralnlesa reformers hav become at
tached to the payroll of our state by
reason of the fact that they hav been
carried Into office through the agitation
ot one of these questions. Thea men
could not hav been elected by their
own party organisation on account of
their well known unfitness for the offices
which they sought. They knew nothing
of th science of government and war
unabt to comprehend and underatand
the duties which they were elected to
perform. By reason of the election and
elevation of the political nondescript
to offlc. our atat. has lost prestige at
horn and abroad.
Th leader of these man In Nebraska,
Mr. Bryan, became tha secretary of state
for the nation and when tha hour of peril
cam to his country he deserted his chief
and slunk away Ilk a thief In th night
to begin anew bis preachments of political
fakery. These men hav represented us
In th congress of the United States and
the result haa been that Nebraska has
received no recognition of any Impor
tance. These men hav been elected gov
ernors of th stat and th result has
been that our stat government has had
no leadership worthy of remembering.
Th Incubator of this class of politicians
has been th legislature of th state,
where laws have been passed in profusion
and confusion without regard to the wel
fare and the upbuilding of the state. Th
result is that today In Nebraska ther Is
not a single promotion or undertaking of
sny great consequence under construc
tion. Even in th laat legislature the
leader of this bunoh of political dema
gogues slmost succeeded In destroying tha
stat militia, and had It not been
for Influence brought to bear from Wash
ington this long-haired statesman would
have succeeded In his desire.
It strikes me that th tlm has ar
rived In Nebraska, when we should cease
to elect members of the legislature, gov
ernors, congressmen and United States
senators upon' issues that ar Immaterial
and which do not determine th fitness
of th man who seeks th office. Long
hair does not denot brains. Neither
does self-laudation prove virtue. We
should elect men. who stand for a policy
of government and who represent a politi
cal party so that the political party In
power will be held responsible for Its
policy of government. I personally be
lieve that th. big problem confronting
the government of our atat and of tha
United States Is th obtaining of men to
construct and guide who ara big enough
and broad enough to grasp the big In
ternal economic questions and to cope
with the serious international problems.
Th days for political fakers and bigots
ar. over. They have had their feast.
They hav left their path of destruction
and they must now b replaced with
men who possess courage, brains and
patriotism.
Therefore, let th lssu in Nebraska be:
Party principle with fltnes. and ability
for th office sought, th test, rather
than a long face, long hair, religious
bigotry and a hypocritical sneer.

THE OLD SONGS.
John D. Long.
The songs we sang wer few and plain:
W sang them o'er and o'er again.
Twaa long ago, yet now and then
We meet and sing them o'er again.
And when the last sweet chord had died,
W. sit In silence aide by side.
Our hearts are full to running o'er
With raindrops from th. skies of yore;
And none dsrea speak, but, silent all.
We almost hear the shadows fall.
Then, while th. twilight deepens fast.
As dim and somber ss th. past.
Like souls revisiting the spheres
Come back to us the buried years.
And In their light, but not ss then.
We live their seasons o'er again.
Till closing round our downcast eri
We feel the blinding tear-mists rise.
The olden songs, ths simple lays.
Full of the breath of other days.
With dear associations rife,
Hav. com to be a part of llf.
And though they touch th. heart with
pain.
We sing them o'er and o'er again.
