An Impressive Object Leuon.
A very Interesting Illustration of one phsse
of popular government li afforded by the lint
of filings of aspirants for public office at pub
lished In The Dee. Thexe Include only those
the law require to be rrfade at the office of the
secretary of state, but in themselves make
most imposing array. If the full list of all who
hare filed with the county clerks throughout
the state were published at the same time,
most Impressive object lesson would be pre
sented. One of the principal results of the
primary election law has been to bring the
active candidates out Into the, open. It Is pot
at all likely that the law has Inspired a longinr
for office where it did not exist before, but
many who previously aspired to srve the peo
ple did not get very far when It came to facing
a convention. When the showing Is multiplied
by all the states In the union, some Idea of the
extent of the business of governing the country
may be acquired. Whether the world Is gov
erned too much doesn't matter In this connec
tion. The point Is that plenty of willing volun
teers will always be on hand, ready to under
I tr.ke the service of doing the governing.
Many Mysteries of Life
Can Be Solved by Man
Garrett F. ferrlss.
"Birds of a feather flock together." Watch
the grafters and fake reformers bitch up with
"Bob," the prince of fake reformers.
Kansas delegates to the Chicago convention
are unlnstructed, but most of them are out
spoken In their preference for Hughes. "Straws
point tb wind."
Residents of El Taso ran well forget the
annoyance of the campaign. Few towns on the
Texas map enjoy the favor of toots from Ga
briel's horn every morning.
Tbe naturalization fee graft Is Just as
odious as the Jail feeding graft. Both are tbe
same kind of a steal sought to be perpetrated
by greedy public officials under color of law.
One He Will Have to Take Back.
Throwing a bouquet at one of the candi
dates running for the nomination of governor
on the republican ticket In Nebraska, that dyed
In-tbe-wool democrat, Edgar Howard, lets this
slip out:
Isn't tt a shame that such a fine character should
be engaged In tha taak of trying to make poor peopla
pay more tariff on tha sugar they usa In coffee?
Well, here's one for Friend Edgar to take
back. The duty on augar whicli poor people
use In their coffee Is to stay by edict of the
democratic administration commanding repeal
of the act which would put It on the free list.
Every democrat on, the ways and means com
mittee voted for a protective sugar tariff ana
It went through the house almost unanimously.
No one knows better than Edgar, however, that
that does not necessarily mean that poor peo
ple will pay more for their sugar, for the tax
In levied only on that part of the home con
sumption which Is Imported, and our own stead
ily expanding beet sugar Industry Is now pro
ducing a large part of our supply. To paraphrase
the phrase, "Isn't it a shame that such a noble
democrat, as Edgar Howard Is, should have to
'fesa up to having gotten on the wrong track
on the free sugar question."
"Bob" Is busy trying to explain how pocket
ing that $6,000 of fee graft, In addition to bis
$4,000 salary as district clerk. Is the essence of
honesty, but It Is bard to make It go down with
honest people.
The remarkable ease with which tbe capital
of Montenegro was switched to Bordeaux sug
gests to Congressman Curry that his Milwau
kee move, with the "suds" blown off, may not be
as funny as It looks.
By all means, let us lift tbe railroad dis
crimination against Omaha as a stop-over point,
but let us also keep' on until we get a new
Union depot, so much needed to accommodate
passengers who stop over.
Congress at last moves toward national de
fense. From the mass of expert and Inexpert
testimony gathered In three months it should
be possible to chart the safe middle course be
' tween the Jingo and the pacifist.
When the Commercial club passed the
1,000-membershlp mark. It was some achieve
ment. When the 2,000-line, which seemed an
Impossibility then, Is a reality, as It will be this
year, another celebration will be due.'
The North and South Railway.
The long mooted project of a railway tc
cioss the North American continent from north
to south is again revived by an army officer.
His discussion turns on a point In connection
with the defense problem. Such a line will be
very useful, and almost Indispensable In con
nection with the guarding of the Panama canal.
and for strategical reasons will get much consta
eratlon. But It can be made of much greater
service' In other ways. 8uch a line will be a closer
link between the United States and the republics
of the south. It will not only facilitate communi
cation and develop commerce between the coun
tries It traverses, but It msy aid in settling
many questions that are now vexatious. Our
relations with our Central American neighbors
would be much more satisfactory If our contact
with them were a little closer, and tbe great
railroad proposed ought to be a factor in es-
tsblishtng the desired conditions.
Turkey's minister of war, Envers Pasha, has
a good start toward equaling the death record
of King Menellk. His latest "assassination"
originated in London, but he persists in llvng
and devising trouble for the enemies of Islam.
It Is plain that the taxpayers of Omaha are
not to be losers from the readvertlsing for bids
for furnishing auto fire equipment. Inci
dentally, remember that The Bee put In some"
effective strokes to prevent the questionable
deal being put across when it was attempted.
It turns out that William Grant Webster
who filed for president in the Minnesota repub
lican primaries, is entered here for vice presi
dent against our home aspirant. Now, we pro
test that this is a flagrant breach of the ethics
of tbe political game, as she Is supposed to be
played.
Unseemly haste marks tbe deliverance of
the New York World on the Issue of W. J.
Bryan's democracy. The World rules that Bryan
"was and is a populist." but does not give
proper weight to bis seal In bitching the family
to the public payroll, which is a pretty strong
brand of straight democracy in these days.
Secretary Pool's periscope got tbe right range.
' Another Railroad Mystery.
It has been well said that one advantage a
corporation enjoys is that it has neither soul to
sfive nor body to kick. When several of these
ctn conceal themselves behind another incor
poreal and still more diaphanous body, register
ing their will through a Joint agency they have
thus created, this advantage Is Immensely in
creased. Such a body is tbe Western Passenger
association, through whose operations the rail
roads entering Omaha have practiced discrim
ination against this city in the matter of rates
and stop-over privileges for many years. All
the lines entering Omaha are members of this
association, and as they constitute tbe leading
and most. influential part of Its membership,
the thought is natural that what they object tc
will not be permitted. It is reasonable, there
fore, to conclude that they willingly acquiesce
in the practices from which Omaha continually
suffers.
It Is not alone in passenger concessions that
Kansas City is favored to the disadvantage ot
Omaha. The Bee recently published a list of
freight rates, showing bow less ia charged for a
longer haul on grain that is diverted from the
local market to the favored one further down
tbe river. Tbe discrimination, so open and so
flagrant, has been rigorously but unavalllngly
protested against, until the railroads are forti
fied In it by tbe inaction of Omaha people.
Every railroad agent in Omaha will Join In
local complaints against an obvious injustice,
but not one will take steps to remedy it. It
gets back then merely to the question how long
Omaha will submit to the unfair treatment ac
corded it by tbe great railroad lines that con
verge here.
IN REMATtD to the life hletory of the earth qucs
tlona are Baked In letters whl h show that many
mlnda are attracted by thla subject. One wishes
to know whether man. having arrived at his preeent
state through many channel, has now reached the top
of his poealhle dn-elopment. or whether ha la not. In
soma unconscious way, being changed continuously
Another Inquires: "How did animal life come Into
existence? Where there any new species developed
In the Quaternary age. and ara there, or cnuld there
be, new species developed In this or a future as.e?"
First, the capital feature of man Is his brain, and
this has manifestly been growing to relative alxe and
complexity of organization for tens of thousands, and
probably hundreds of thousanda. ot years. Whether
wa assume that the mind Is simply a manifestation
of the activity of tha brain, or that the brain Is only
an Inatrument of tha mind, tha final result Is the ssme
as far as tha development of man's physical form U
concerned.
With a better brain mora mental power can be
exerclaed. On the other hand, the mind. If It be lomo
thlng acting upon and through the brain, may pro
duce superior organisation and stimulate growth and
development In tha brain cells by long-continued ac
tion. For ages It has been shaping and Improving Its
tool, and. while the brain la the seat of mental ac
tlon, It Is not tha only part of man's body that Is
affected and modified by tha activity of tha mind.
Ills features, his limbs, his muscles, bis nerves, hit
vital functions, all are subject to mental Influence.
A high Intelligence shows In tha face. Wa do not
know how Shakespeare looked, for there Is no au
thentic likeness of him In existence, but we are mor
ally certain that ha did not look Ilka a brute or a
thief or a murderer That certainty Is baaed upon uni
versal experience. It raqulree some skill to read tha
'mind's construction In tha face." but It can, in
a large sense, be dona. There can be no question that
tha general appearance of tha human race, aa civili
sation and Intelligence have advanced, has changed
for the bettor. Exceptions do not alter tha rule. Back,
slldlnga do not arrest the general advance; but the
latter la. by Its very nature, slow. Wa are, consciously
or unconsciously, chsnglng In looks and form as well
as in character, and tha change la upward. Man In
tha future will be a nobler being physically and men
tally than ha Is today. Wa have no means ot fixing
a limit to his possibilities of progress.
Second, we cannot tell how animal Ufa, or, for that
matter, vegetable life came Into existence. But it is
a subject that has led to many fascinating specula
tions. It has been sssumed, for instance, that tha
first germs of life are ultra mlscroscoplc, I. a., too
minute to be seen and studied by any Instrument of
science, and thus tha beginnings of Ufa seems to us
miraculous, though in reality it may be the result of
chemical and physical operations no more mysterious
than any other operation of nature.
Home have assumed that life was started from an
original germ by a speclsl effort of creative power,
and after that was left to natural development In
accordance with the needs of Ita environment. We lo
find from tha study of the rocks that tha earliest Ufa
forma were comparatively very simple, and that tha
higher and mora complex forms have appeared grad
ually, and apparently always by evolution or develop
ment, from preceding forms. At tha present time we
know of no Ufa which does not spring from previ
ously existing Ufa. In other words, wa find no
creation of absolutely new life In any form. Tet some.
Ilka Dr. Bastlan, think that Ufa la actually developing
anew now. Just aa It has dona In tha past, but that,
as above aald, Ita elements ara below tha range of mi
croscopic vision and of chemical experiment
New species have been coming Into axlstanca every
geologlo age, but always, aa far as wa can sat. as a
result of changes and modifications In older ones.
Many species have gone out of existence entirely..
Changea of climate, etc, have been powerful factors
In altering tha forma of Ufa. Wa can watch that
process going on under tha Influence of changes pro
duced by ourselves.
If wa cannot produce absolutely naw species by our
Interference, we can produce many naw varieties, and
by Intermixture many extraordinary forma. Look at
what Luther Burba nk has effected In thla way. Ha
has found that there la, so to speak, an underworld of
undeveloped or forgotten forms and tendenclea In tha
Ufa forces of. thla globe, which can be brought out In
what seems Ilka new creations of beauty and useful
ness. Ha does not pretend to create new forma of
plants, but ha finds that ha can manipulate old forma
and bring about naw combinations and encourage hid
den or suppressed tendencies, so that with sufficient
ttma and effort. It might be possible to reclothe the
earth with a garment of vegetation far mora splen
did than any It haa yet worn.

delegate to the republican national con
vention from this state to announce my
solf for Hughes for president. I am
pleased td have an opportunity to answer
this solicitous Inquiry as to who la
Hughes and what does his boom repre
sent.
It Is but a little mote than ten year
sjro that Charles E. Hughes sprang Into
national prominence by his materful con
duct as special counsel of the Investiga
tion carried on by the Armstrong Insur
ance committee In tha atata of .New
Tork. Hia pitlleaa expoaure ot the ruth
lesa manipulation of the people'a millions;
his fearless pursuit of the high priests of
graft In the tnnr temple of' tha Insur
ance sanctuary, made strong appeal to
both the Imagination and tha conscience
of the American people. He drove the
money changers from tha temple, and
since that hour every American home
where tha thrift and prudence of tha
bread winner haa made provision against
his last hour la more secure. From that
day tha manhood and tha integrity of
Charles E. Hughes became a matter ot
nation-wide knowledge.
Immediately following his service with
the Armstrong committee, the . govern
ment of tha t'nlted States sought and
obtained hla asaiatanoe as a special aid
to tha attorney general of the United
States to Investigate tha coal situation,
a matter of great moment to tha Amer
ican people, In which ha rendered signal
service.
A governor of tha great atata of Naw
Tork he established a record for ability,
integrity and independence not equaled
since the days of Drover Cleveland.
In tha campaign of 1MB ha took tha
stump for tha republican ticket, and

thronged by thousands to hear tha man
with whose splended achievements they
were familiar. It Is today a matter of
common consent, wherever two or more

In his presentation of the great national
issues in that campaign Charles E.
Hughes towered high above all our party
leadera.
It was then that the virile personality

"Naw occasions have made naw dutlea

Mr. Editor, referred to. Indulges In a
Uttla fling. I have no doubt ha Mashed
while writing It. "We know that Mr.
Hughes as governor of New Tork vetoed
tha i-cent fare law." Governor Hughes'

tha splended evldenoee that ha ' would

PAIN AND ITS RKLIEF
By DR. E. L. ABOGADO
Ours Is not a nation ot Btoles. Wa ara
not indifferent to pain. We abhor It, Be
tl ever ao slight, we fume and Irak until
ws get rid of It, because It annoys ns it
Interferes with our work and pleasure. ,
And 11 pain Is severe the pain of rheu
matism, sciatica, neuralgia, gout or soma
acute nerve derangement, wa are apt to
regard It as sufficient excuse for a hurried
call at the doctor's office.
Ia the segregate, the American peopla
probably suffer more annoying, useless
pain than any other peopla on the taae ot
