AJ1 together, now, for a naw union depot that trill ba a credit to Omaha. Thanks, Brother Lobeck, for tha garden seeds. It may be the last time we can thank you. i There la glory enough for every booeter who helps to land a paaaenger depot worth while. Washington originated the policy of "watchful waiting," but lt true exemplars are the world'a map makers. Ia the average voter Intelligent enough to write a name In the ballot? Just watch Ne braska republicans write In the name of llughea.

The music of tha old-time flddlara ii all that la claimed for It on tha score of aenttment, memories and bygone thrills, but the real try out of musical talent awalta a contest of spring political fiddlers. . , Demand for automobile licensee In Ne braska showa no abatement. One car for every twenty-four persons, a total of 62,000 licenses, indicates speeding up preparedness which mocks the rising price of gas. Tha World Herald says It started toe union depot movement ia January. Good. Still its dense silence about It from January to the end of March would ordinarily be taken to indicate a lapse of enthusiasm. watchdogs or tha national treasury are right on the Job during business hours. A few dogs of war sought to reach tha commissary department of Fort Ethan Allen for six quarts ef milk and four loavea of bread a day, but were promptly chased off tha pork reservation Fleet oess of foot alone saved their hides. The apectacle of Senator Kern leading "Tom", Taggart to the vice president's desk to take tha oath of senator la worthy of a Hooster artist brush. Taggart baa been the political teacher and trainer of Kern and Kern recipro cated aa the megaphone for Taggart. The prea ent scene ia typical of tha apt pupil leading his teacher to the honors of atate, and deserves place among tho historic murals of the capltol Tha water district law still proclaims its "intent and purpose" to be "not only to re move aatd board of director, but Ukewlae tha mpkye f the local water district from the influence of partisan politics." How long la the board going to stand for ita pay-roll era ployea drawing fat salaries devoting the bulk of their time to running for partisan political office in direct violation of the law they have aworn to obeyf Welcome the New Union Depot Recruit. t.reotings to the new L'nlon Depot recruit. Welcome to the World-Herald, at last Join ing The Be In the movement to secure ade ouate passenger accommodations for Omaha from the railroads. It In no way affecta us that the World Herald now tries to make out that It was the "original" t'nlon Depot champion.- All the Omaha newspapers have, at one time or an other, pointed out the need of up-to-date sta tion facilities, but It remained for The Bee to ae that the time waa bow ripe for persistent and affective agitation. Our readers will re member that at the very start of this agitation several weeks ago, we Issued an open Invitation to our contemporarlea to come on In with us, assuring them that the succesa would bring "glory enough for all." We welcome tha World-Herald's acceptance of this invitation, even though tardy, and we renew it for the third newspaper, which we hope will yet wake up to the fact that the demand for a new Union Depot Is real and that the people of Omaha are In earnest about it. To show our good faith, we repeat what the World-Herald says very pointedly In reinforcing The Bee'a argument: Over 1,000,000 passengers pass through Omaha each year, not counting the local travel, and It la certain that tharo la nothing In their flrat glimpse of our terminals to causa anything hut rejoicing In the fact that they don't hava to disembark hare. It la positively up to tha Omaha railroads to dj something and to do It quick! The hard-times allhl which has been found so useful by them for soma years will not answer now they have mora business than they know how to handle. Tha transportation llnea are constantly yelling for fair play, and Omaha will deal with them only on that baaie fair play for the rallrnada, and th same for this city. A now Union Depot to equal anything possessed by any other1 metropolis of the size ia the solution, and there ahould ba no compromise. We repeat alao that If all the factors and fr.rces Interested In the upbuilding of Omaha, take vlgoroas hold for a new Union Depot, the rallroade wilt not be able to stand out very long.

What We Vote for in Nebraska This Year. It seeme that many Intelligent votere are confused and uncertain as to what the presi dential primary in Nebraska calls for in addition to the usual nominations for state and local offlcaa. When the voter goes Into the booth ibis year, it being the year of a presidential election. he will find hla ballot headed with sub-titles of preference) for president and vice president. He will also be called upon to vote for two presi dential electors-at-large and one presidential elector from his congressional district. He will likewise vote for four delegates-at-large and a Ilka number of alternates to represent bla party in Its national convention. I j will alao vote for one national committeeman for the political party with which he affiliates. These are the offices and positions to be filled at this primary in addition to and distinct from those that appear on the ordinary off-year pri mary ballot. Contrasts in Mexico. Pictures In strong contrast are Just now being shown in Mexico. The people, misunder stood on this and misrepresented on the other side of the border, coming into contact with the soldiers In General Pershing's expedition, are getting a better first-hand knowledge of Amer icans. They are beginning to understand the friendly nature of the call, to know that a wide difference exists between the soldiers of the United Statea and the banditti who have mas queraded as soldiers for years in Chihuahua. With thla understanding Is growing up a con fidence that means much for future relations. On the other hand, Carransa by his dilatory methods Is hampering the movement, and is showing a most unfriendly attitude. Pretend ing to preserve his dignity, and the integrity ot his country, which were never threatened, hr Is In fact aiding Villa and his crew of mur derers to make good their escape by haggling over the use of the railroads needed to handle supplies for the American troopa and thus ren der their activity the more efficient. This at titude is characteristic of the man, who has been described as "the most misunderstood man In Mexico;'' misunderstood because Ameri cans are unable to grasp the sweep of his in- gtatltude, the narrowness of bla nature, or the pettiness of his conduct. the marvel will alwaya be how a man of Car rrnxa's quality waa ever able to bam boo tie the president of the United Statea into the miser able intrigue that la now becoming apparent. Some day, perhaps, the agencies that have ao far concealed themselves behind the "first chief" will be forced into the open, and thus clear up what la now a puisle. Water Power and Politics. The streams of the west, and especially those of Nebraska, are at last to be utilised. They are being made to serve the purposes of the politicians, who hope to float Into office on the rippling waters of the rlvera that flow from mountain to sea. This is not a new thing, no tewer than the discovery that running water may be made useful by turning Us energy into power, and transforming that power into light and heat and other forms for man'a uses. These streams have flown across Nebraska for unnumbered ages, but only lately have they be come serviceable to the politician. Now, in lieu ot another Issue, they are being paraded with much pomp and display for the bewilder ment of voters who may be momentarily blinded by the dazzling display of words and imposing array ot flgurea back of which lurk the selfish offlce-aeekera. The economic features ot the problem are entirely Ignored by the schemers who are busy at befooling the people. The water power of Nebraska has been looked Into very carefully by experts, and examined from every angle and to the full extent of Ita possibilities. It does exist, and Is now available, but it has not been developed by private 'capital, for the sole reason that It has not presented a suf ficiently attractive field. The salvation ot Ne braska, happily, doea not depend on the aud denly discovered condition over -which such a pow-wow Is being held. With young mutton bringing fll.Ti on tha hoof, it behooves the March lamb to give pack ing-town the distant salute and save ita hide. 'Hearfcea ame Stirs teaereae. New Tork Times' Wsshlngton Correspondence: i Representative Simeon V. Fesa, an Ohio republican and supporter of ex-Benator Burton for the presi dential nomination. Inadvertently caused a demon stration In tha house today (March 26) by mentioning tha name of Associate Justice Charles K. Hughes of the I'nlted Ktatee supreme court. Many members on tho republican side of the chamber Interrupted tha Ohio congressmen by applauding for neatly a minute. Mr. Pees referred to Juetire Hngnea during the debate on the literacy test provision of tha Burnett Immigration bill. In reply to a speech by Repre sentative O'Bhsughneasy of Rhode Island. Mr. Fesa, who was formerly a college president, spoke of the founding of Brown college, from whloh came Horace Mann, E. Benjamin Andrews, Charles E. Hughes, and other famoua educators and statesmen. As Mr. Fees reached the name of Justice Hughes the applause suddenly swept over the republican side, and the Ohio member stood In rather embarrassed fashion, attempting to proceed. Just at that moment the time of the Ohloan expired. He aaked for one minute additional, which was allotted y Representa tive Burnett, In charge ot the Mil. "Is Justice Hughes now placed In nomination asked Representative Oal!aher of luinote. I will say more about that If he gets to be preel- dent," said Mr. Feas. Again the applause broke out. It was the first time that the name ot tha ex-gov ernor of New York had been mentioned In house de bate since the movement was begun to make htm tha presidential nominee. The republican applause was so loud and persistent that members rushed In from the closk rooms snd corridors to seeertaln the cause of the demonstration. Mr. Fess supported the literacy teat provision of the Burnett bill, but when he was allowed an addi tional minute of time Mr. Burnett facetiously re marked : "I am not yielding time to the gentleman to make presidential nomination." "Then I withdraw the nomination." aald Mr. Fees, while the democrata laughed. Jodarsblp w0 le the Way. Bt I.011U Globe-Democrat: People who profess to sea perils to the Judiciary In the acceptance of the presidential nomination by Justice Hughes overlook the ressons for the republican clamor for Hughes. It is not Hughes the Judge hla admirers wtett to nominate, but Hughea the republloan statesman. There Is no decision of his whloh la likely to be an Issue In the coming campaign. There have been times when a supreme Judge and hla attitude were an Issue In politics. Jefferson died without his bit terness against John Ma renal 1 softening. Jackson made one of Marshall's decisions an Issue la his sec ond campaign, saying: "tt the people decide who Is right." Roger B. Taney's personality became in volved In the political controversy ever the Dred Bcott dec ision. Halmon P. Chase waa ready to accept a democratic presidential nomination against Grant. Tha vote of Oeorge Phlras on the Income ts wss a side Issue of tha campaign of IB The dissenting opinion of John M. Harlan as to "the rule of reason" was one of tha features of the last presidential cam paign. Thee have been ttanee and there may be times again when the decislona of the eupreme eourt will be political Issues. Although no Juatloe has ever been nominated for president, there is a possibility that some one may try U and that ha may write opinions to win popular applause. But the people can attend to such a demagogue. If one ever appears. There Is not the slightest element of this m the clamor for Hughes. Hla aloofness from the party fight ot 191!. due to his position and not to polltloal cowardice. Is a great asset. No man big enough for president remained neutral In that struggle. If he waa actively In politics. Even In 111 many , repub licans turned hopeful eyes on Hughes, In the tnld"t of the turmoil. He Is not an unknown, except that, he haa not chattered about our foreign relatione. But his fine sense snd splendid Americanism, manifested during his political career, may be depended upon. The republicans will give their views en all quea tlons proper for treatment In a national platform and there Is no doubt but what they win meet wun the approval of Hughes, whether he becomes a can didate or not. His acta and utteraneee while gov ernor and his marvelous speeches In the 1908 cam paign proved him a thorough republican. Aimed at Omaha Beatrice Express: The Omaha Bee la ot the opin ion that the snakes Crlven out of Ireland by St. Pat rick must hava been reincarnated In Mexico. In which oaaa Uncle Sam will undoubtedly prove a worthy suc cessor of Ireland's Illustrious saint. Aurora Republican: The statement that no official can be elected In Omaha who to not under the con trol of tha liquor Interests Is rather startling espe cially when It comes from a man who himself held an Important publlo tosltlon In that city for a long term of years and la now running for governor aa the only simon-pure Champion of tbe prohibition amendment. Tork Times-News: If Omaha would Just take the advice of the pacifists and prepare for a union depot It would be sure to eome. Hastings Tribune: The Omaha Bee says that Omaha never would have had. the Grain exchange but for forcing the railroads to It. If Omaha succeeded In forcing tho railroads to do anything It certainly must have some force and persuasive power also. Orand Island Independent: What waa only seven years sgo Omaha'e "moat beautiful love match." reaching the climax ot the moat elaborate and bril liant wedding, haa now reached the atate of divorce proceedings. One cannot tell from the wedding days which are the most successful marriages. Newman Grove Reporter: A critic ssya that the picture of Imogen Fontenelle that hangs In the lobby of the Fontenelle hotel In Omaha looks like an east ern woman arrayed In a horse blanket. Omaha folks are making themselves sorter ridiculous la this Fon tenelle business. Nebraska City Press: Reporters on metropolitan newspapers who find delight la poking run at coun try folks are hurting their eommunltlaa, their new- papere and themselves. Tbe reporter on an Omaha newspaper who wrote an article a few days ago about two .unsophisticated farmers arriving at the Union station and taking the police patrol wagon in mistake tor a taalcab had a funny story, but he looked at only one aide of the question. The city folks are a great deal more unsophisticated In the oombre. Any man who haa spent hla yeara In a rural oommunHy under- stsnds tha greennese of the city lad or lassie who romee out to spend a few daya with relatives and friends. And the country Journalists have ee far refrained from making unkind comment about it The metropolitan reporters on the metropolitan Omaha newspapers might be taken for alfalfa them aelvee were they te leave Farnam street and spend the week-end In some village. Wsajld RestrwJw War Adreeatea. NEBRASKA CTTT. Neb.. March 2K-TO tha Editor of The Bee: Do the roaseee of Americans want Intervention? Bin Is the cause of the European war. Cove tousneee for more territory, greater wealth or more power are the causes of all ware, which could be avoided. We as people of the Vnlted Wstes hsve a vague Idea of the Intense misery, surfering ana hardships and death caused by this colos sal war. "When we read how large cities are being destroyed with their homes by the tens of thousands, hushsnds and sons gone and very likely dead: women with out any support, food or clothing and their little ones the same, and cast to the four winds of the earth. In the face of all ot thla as undoubted fscts we read constantly of men, who are thinkers, advocating and urging In tervention or war on Mexloo. Our presi dent and his cabinet are taxing their brains to honorably keep out of a strug gle with these people. We greatly question If these 'spark" klndlers of war sincerely hsve the true spirit of patriotism at heart or whether It le the almighty dollar: and H Is a ques tion If these very ones would volunteer, and, If drafted, would hire a substitute at almost any prloe. Do they not see the awful loss of Ufa, misery and pain, be sides the billions of money which must follow? I for one would like to see our congress enact measures of stringent nature to govern these war advocates.' I believe there Is plenty of Justice In the breasts of the American people to de mand war and that In due time. J. U BENTZ. Te et Mr. Cot toe Right. AINS WORTH, Neb., March X.-To the Editor of The Bee: My attention 'has Juat been called to the fact that an Item In The Bee In connection with the Kennedy meeting held here gave me as authority for the statement that Brown county re publics ns were solid for Kennedy. The Item said: "I told Mr. Aldrtch when he waa here some time ago that I wss for Kennedy snd that the whole republican party of Brown county wanted Kennedy nominated." Now, In the first place, Governor Ald tich haa not been la Alnsworth for six years. Hs was then making his first can vass for for governor. I could not hsve said anything like the above then. I have said nothing of that kind ever. I met Mr. Kennedy last week when he was here and found him a pleasant gentleman. I also met a press representative who waa with him, but to neither of these gentle men did I say anything like the above. I did say that Mr. Kennedy had many friends In Brown county, as he has. And I am sura he will get a good vote here. But I did not aay that I was for him. If he la nominated at the primaries I will take great pleasure In voting for him In November, but In the primaries I am for Governor Aldrlch, whom I have known for a much longer time, and who accom plished ao much for the people of this state while In the legislature and in the executive office. Please do ma the favor of making thta correction. JOHN M. COTTON. Prwaipteeaa ts. Delay. OMAHA. South Bide. March t& To ths Editor ef The Bee: Our caption seems ot much importance at thla time, and should be looked at with careful consideration at all times, and especially at critical times In tbe life ef aa Individual, atate or nation. Delay may mean work not weir done. discouragement or disaster. Also, It may mean that a foroed action Is very un satisfactory In ita ending, no results being .obtained. At the beginning ot the present seaston of congrese oertain things were urged upon congress by the executive, and his party agreed that they should take prece dence to all other matters. Three months has now elapsed and oongreas Is about where it atartad on these matters of Im portance. Such la the obstructive ability of a group In congress of a pacifist class who seem to be led by eur Nebraaka friend, the late secretary of atate. This person, while professing the greatest con sideration for his former chief, has done nothing te advanoe legislation alnce leav tng the cabinet, but roams the country propagating hla theories, thereby Imped' tng legtalatlon whloh may mean much to the nation. The members of oongreaa who hava allowed themeelves to be led hy the nose as It were' can only be com- Pared to the petty-fogging lawyer, and ahould be relegated te a rear aeat for their perfidy. Promptness to action should have been the watchword, because of the crl'l al position the government has been placed In, and grave consequences may resit if action Is not speedy. In dealing with the Mexican situation. by delay much trouble baa already been experlanoed and It cannot now be esti mated aa to the amount; time can now only tell. The recent raid into United Plates territory by Villa and his bandit force has been met with, promptness by tha executive, and should be prosecuted with vigor and tbe bandit chief be mads to suffer the extreme penalty without reference te the de facto government of Mexico.

HATES CHICKENS AIIDCOWS TOO Woman's Story Will Hold In terest for Thousands of People Everywhere. "I hate the cows snd chickens," said Mrs. Kttle Edwards, of 10 Mill street, Lockland, O.. In paraphrase ot a popu lar song of the cabarets. "I have lived on eggs snd milk for so long that I Just can't look at a hen or a cow with friendly eyes," she explained laughingly. "When one's diet Is restricted to ths products of our friends of the barn yard for weeks and then months; It Is like suddenly stepping Into a little para dise of content to find all of the good things of former days bsck on your own bill of fare" Mrs. Edwards' story will hold Interest for thousands of men and women who would welcome, as she did, freedom from a diet. "I have long been a sufferer from stom ach trouble," she explained. "I paid In pain for every meal I ate. There waa the dally headache that appeared soon after breakfast, and stayed for lunch and sup per. My sleep, after the houra ot suffer ing, wss broken and gave me no real rest I had no energy, was tired all the time, and life waa Just long daya of dis content. "In the hope of Improving I began the diet of boiled milk and boiled eggs. And I was faithful. For weeks I kept this diet and I did Improve some under It, but I waa not being cured, I realised. "Now my stomach la a great deal bet ter. I can eat almost anything without 111 effects. I am too thankful to depart from plainly cooked food yet, however. But my appetite Is good, my sleep is sound and refreshing, and my housework Is no longer an Irritating, difficult task. "The reason? I have taken Teniae, the Master Medicine. So why should I hesitate to recommend It to anyone or everyone who suffers aa I did?" Throughout the country there are more than 1,000,000 people who will say, ss does Mrs. Edwards, thst there Is no medicine that acts so favorably on ail ments of the stomach, liver and kidneys or oatarrhal affections, or Is so good a tonic, appetiser and lnvlgorant as Tan lac, which la now being Introduced in Omaha at Sherman ee McConnell Drug Co., lftth and Dodge streets.
