Hurrahing Jar Hughes '
Spoiling the Sport Came,
When 10,000 or more people pay good money
to see something held out to them as "the athletic
event of the century," feelings of disgust and re
sentment are natural when, the wonderful "event"
turns out to be a tedious posing exhibition not
even good "fodder" for the movies. Whose fault
it is that "the Fourth of July wrestling match
between the Peerless Joe Stecher and Ed (Strang
led Lewis, the pride of Kentucky, Wisconsin,
Iowa and a few other bailiwicks" turned out to
be such a pitiful farce it is not up to us to say.
The shame of it is the misrepresentation from
which Omaha in particular, and legitimate sports
in general, are made to suffer. The same publicity
advance agent, just quoted, after reciting the
names of all the world's great wrestling lumin
aries, gave us this dazzling pen picture:
And yet, even they never gave us a battle
which for nerve and verve, for wild, tremen
dous thrills and heart-thumping excitement,
could hold a candle to what the peerless boy
in overalls from our own little city of Dodge
and Ed (Strangler) Lewis, the lumberjack '
Colossus from Wisconsin are going to show us
on July 4. ,
Are they not the world's two athletic
exemplars; two men absolutely physically per
fect? Well, then, is there any mystery why yotf
should hold your breath and stare? Is it any
wise dumfoundins; that the two miracle men,
Stecher and Lewis, who are to struggle to a
finish, have aroused the curiosity of the world?
Let anyone who wasted irrecoverable time on
the glorious Fourth in "watchful waiting," con
trast this with the reality.
The bane of professional sports is the money
prize. It is most insidious when the contestants
are to divide a bulging pot regardless of whether
they win or lose or whether they put up an on-the-square
match or not The only question is
how often can they get sway with it. '

Carranza'a Conciliatory Reply,
lienor, Carranza Jias orofited bv the time he has
taken to reflect and deliberate on the character of
his reply to the last two notes from Washington.
At any rate, he appreciates the full beauty of the
proverb of Solomon, "A soft answer turneth away
wrath." In his note, the first chief points out a
way along which peace between his people and
the United States may eventually be achieved.
Mexican leaders seem to have finally realized the
gravity of the situation, and appear' not . only
willing but even eager to set about to re-establish
cordial relations with our people.
Carranza's promises sound, fair, and his re
quests are not unreasonable, but the point is how
far can he berelied upon to fulfill any obligation
he may assume'. Senor Carranza need not be
chagrined to find a reluctance on part of Ameri
cans to take his pledges at face value. HoVever,
his proposals will get full consideration, and if
his acts square up anywhere near to his words,
he will find the United States willing to meet him
hlf way st least..' -
Ord Quiz: A writer in The Omaha Bee says
"For furiosity's sake it would be interesting to
see how Charles E. Hughes would stand the test
as president of the United States." There are
many better reasons than that for electing Mr.
Hughes president, but if there were no other, that
would be sufficient to justify taking a chance on
a change ot administrations. "
Hartington Herald: Nebraska may now plume
herself upon the fact that she contributed her
share toward' the nomination of Chief Justice
Hughes tor president ot tne united Mites.
. Tekamah Herald: We believe that Nebraska
will be for Hughes by 20,000 or more majority..
Bloomington Advocate: It is very comforting
to the li.wu republicans in Nebraska that wrote
the name of Hughes on the ballot that he has
been chosen as the man to, lead the party to vic
tory this fall. There it .no doubt but what the
expression of the 15,000 voters in the state went
. s long ways in showing how strong the Hughes
sentiment was in the western and central states.
Fremont Tribune: The probabilities' are that
Candidate Hughes will mam a campaign tour,
and it may well be hoped he will do to. Nebraska
had one touch of the Hughes presence that lin
gered. When he came to the state in 1908 he
made a deep impression; His logic and hia
facile sneech were most fascinating: and convinc
ing. He will be able to arouse the country to s
fe.fch pitch; if he engages in a. speaking tour. The
people have become used to this method, intro-
iced by Mr. Bryan, and they expect the candi
cites to come around and see them, and be seen.
i
Hughes' Definition of Amdricanltm.
The republican nominee for president, to his
old neighbors on the Fourth of July, gave a good
definition of the quality of Americanism that has
made this country great. Speaking of the men
of the revolution and the Declaration of Inde
pendence, he said: '
It is all very well to talk about the declara-
, tion and the strong sentiments which it con
tains, but that was backed by men men who
v couldn't have indited it, men who couldn't have
committed it to memory, men who couldn t
have repeated it, but men in whose liver was the
incarnation of independence and whose spirit
was breathed into that immortal document.
This is the type of manhood needed today;
not the noisy man, says Mr. Hughes", but the quiet
sensible, honest, dependable men. It is on the
firmness of the moral fiber of these men, and their
full determination to maintain the right, that the
safety of the nation rests. That the country does
possess thoughtful men, and that the noisy hys
teria of the mob, excited by newspaper headlines,
is not the determining influence in our destiny,
augurs well for the future. . The sturdy character
of American manhood still dominates, as it did
in the days of Washington and Franklin.
Americans are accused of seeking after ease
and luxury; to s very great extent they do, and
no nation in all the history of the world ever en
joyed so great s measure or so general distribu
tion of the most alluring of creature comforts. It
it well that this should be so, but love of ease has
not brought with it sloth or universal flabbiness
to American's.- This government was set and has
been maintained by men who were willing to
give over personal comfort and endure hardship
that the principles of liberty and equality might
survive. Such Americanism as Mr. Hughes
stands for la npt alone the hope and strength of
the nation, but of the world.
. Fallacy of Stats Sovereignty.
Our democratic brethren look with consterna
tion on any move that in the slightest degree
trenches upon their sacred dogma of the sover
eignty of the state, except, of course, where it
makes an opening into the federal treasury. They
hesitate to concede any point in government to
the control of the United States, for fear that by
so doing, the state rights may be impaired. The
fallacy of this position has been many times ex
posed, but experience does not carry conviction
to the democratic breast. States' rights, in the
last analysis, rest on no broader foundation than
individual rights. Matters peculiar and exclusive
to the state may well be left there, but on all
points wherein the general welfare sjs, involved,
consideration must be general arrd not" special.
This rule applies to individuals, to communities
within the states, and must apply to the states
themselves. Commerce and industry have long
since outgrown state or regional lines and are
no longer restricted by arbitrarily drawn bounds
ries To continue conditions as suggested by the
advocates of state sovereignty is to perpetuate
confusion and to unnecessarily hamper progress
that otherwise is possible. The vehemence with
which the democratsinsist on their doctrine ent-
phasizes the failure of that" party to grow with
growing civilization. All material interests of
every state are welt conserved and fully protected
under the repuDiican plan, while none is per
mitted, through selfishness or for other reason, to
retard the forward movment of all, '
Our supreme court holds that the jurisdiction
of the railway commission over telephone serv
ice supersedes regulation by local Authorities. This
raises the question whether the authority of the
commission over street railways is likewise ta-
perior to the local authority. That issue, we be
lieve, is raised in some pending litigation from
which we ought to hear before long. '
With respect to rumors of Mexican raids on
the border, the reader will play safe by observing
one of two rules. ' Await official confirmation or
salt it until the freshness wears off.
