The big tractor show at Fremont i( bound to be a powerful drawing card. Carranza's "cabinet" at least knowl what to do when it holds the trump card. - One thing may be said in favor of the weather man; he has been absolutely impartial. When it comes to showing recuperative pow ers, no one can put it over King Corn. " If the president can only keep us out of indus trial war now, he will be acclaimed a great peace maker.

': '; ; In 1896 we had a presidential ticket with two tails and now we are to have one properly tailed, but with no head. v ; A Kansas City uplifter tells us we are threat ened with the "woman tramp."

No A B C business in the present negotiations with Mexico! The South American annex had its uses while the "stalling" was going on, but Is not needed now. . . , Welt, if that's the way it works, let all the summer excursionists get together and rebuke the shameless combine between the railroads and the Interstate Commerce commission. Yes, Omaha wants a free Missouri river bridge for the autoists and it also wants a new Union de pot for. railway passengers and neither should be permitted to crowd the other'out. ; ' 5 y ' Will, the federal land bank board make .the district to fit a preferred location for the bank? Or will it constitute the district regardless of the competing cities in it? The answer is the meat in the cocoanut ' .. ' . '. .-.'j,.',' : Democratic spokesmen in congress are kindly furnishing us examples of federal, regulation sup-, planting state control when they refer to the lot tery business and white slave suppression. Sup pose we still depended on forty-eight different states to stop these abuses as we did before the federal government stepped in I . Unfortunately, not all of the "distinguished Americas writers" with "small interest in poetical parties" are as open and honest as Meredith Nicholson in admitting that he is for Wilson be cause he is "a party man, a democrat," who swal lowed both Bryan and Parker nd maintains his "regularity" by voting in the democratic primar ies. The others are just as Intensely partisan democrats but not so frank in avowal. Discouraging Weakness Collier's Weekly. The visit of the submarine freighter Deutsch land seemed notable, first of all, in verifying ro mancer Jules Verne. Also one. thrilled to the dar ing of Captain Koenig and his crew. Incidentally, the Deutschland created a remarkable diversion at ajtime when Germans were as hungry for good nlws as for good food. After the naval "victory" off Jutland, and the commencement of the allies' "Big Push, what more welcome than this blood less triumph over British sea power? But for Americans the coming of the Deutschland seemed of especial importance in the light its construction and the construction of other "supersubmarine" may throw on future German policy and on American neutrality. Meantime the open-minded editors of the "New Republic" point out the blindness of assuming that the controversy between the United States and Germany over the use of the submarine as a commerce destroyer is ended, so far as the pres ent war goes. We know very little about the rela tive strength of the factions at Berlin which favor and oppose extreme methods in dealing with this issue, but, however strong or weak Tirpitx and Bethmann-Hollweg may respectively be, it is clear that as a last resort against blockade and against the conclusion of peace upon unfavorable terms the submarine remains a tempting, even if, in the last analysis, unprofitable, weapon. Germany's im proved submarines can hardly be ignored until that government recognizes that its real job is peace on the best terms procurable. " That stage has not as yet been reached. Meanwhile, the dangers to our precarious neutrality threatened by renewed submarine activity are increasingly apparent The "New Republic is not , partisan periodical, and this adds force to its conservative statement that the administration "has done noth ing and written nothing to convince Germany of its will or its ability to be neutral in the sense of enforcing the old rules against both the belliger ents, uor has anything it has done 'or written secured, from Germany a repudiation of the sink ing ot the Lusitania. It has no policy except that of keeping out of trouble from day to day. This s one of the discouraging weaknesses of the ad ministration. What is still more discouraging is that, under the inspiration of such a leadership, rntr people has lost itself in doubts,, not only of mencan duties, but even of American rights. WindUp of the Bull Moose Party. The action, or rather inaction, of the bull moose conference at Indianapolis means the wind up of that party and its speedy extinction as a national political organization. ' The conference has decided not to reassemble the national convention to make another nomina tion for president. The reason for this is obvious, for an attempt to reconvene the delegates who met at Chicago last June either would disclose a majority of them, if all should attend, to be sup porting Hughes or the absence of those who have rejoined the republican party would show what a mere handful the irreconcilables make. The mem bers of the Indianapolis conference, composed now of assistant democrats, do, not want to take a chance on a bull moose convention officially substituting Hughes in the vacancy left by Roose velt's declination and so propose to go on with a leaderless ticket composed only of John M. Par ker as nominee for vice president, Parker himself being a Louisiana democrat whose progressivism stops short of joining any party like the republic an party that does not draw a color line. Even though a bull moose electoral ticket is put up in a few states, in none of them can there be the slightest hope of winning out and the party will cut less of a figure nationally than did even the populists in any election before their disintegra tion. ... ' ' It is idle to debate whether the bull moose party has, or has not, fulfilled a mission. It must, however, be clear to everyone open to conviction that the objects at which the party aimed, insofar as they have intrinsic merit,-are attainable only through the republican party. Sincere bull moos ers will waste no more time or effort on a third party movement but will accept the leadership of Hughes and exert themselves for his election. Does Carransa "Come Clean?" ' Senor Carrania is evidently quite willing to settle with the United States, but on 'his own terms, and unless a great change in policy takes place at Washington, this will be the basis for the negotiations soon to be entered into. His note, in reply to that from the United States, recently dispatched to Mexico, completely ignores the sug gestion that the relations between our country and the revolutionists below the border be considered in their entirety. . Carranza instrusts his commis sioners to devote their attention to points he him self has outlined, which have to do with the pres ence of American troops south of the border, and conditions that will govern in the matter of pro tecting the border from further forays by bandits. The weightier questions as to reparation for out rages of the past, guaranty of good behavior for the future, and establishment of orderly and re sponsible government are not to be considered.' ' Carranza is wilier if not wiser than Mr. Wilson and.his advisers. The first chief has just declared his intention of resigning his office and entering the lists as a candidate for president, at an elec tion to be called when the military junta now in power deems it expedient. Senor Venustiano has no intention of going before his countrymen, handicapped by the accusation of having entered into negotiation with the Gringo over any detail of the Mexican government. , Moreover, he in tends to adopt a new constitution for Mexico, and doesn't especially care to be hampered in fixing Its scope by any inconvenient consultations or agreements in progress between his commission ers and those of the United States. The first chief may be neither a statesman nor a general, but he is showing signs of political cunning that would do credit to a Tammany chieftain. On our side is Mr. Wilson, who has "kept the country out of was," but who, none the less, has the entire land force of the United States lined up along the border of Mexico, and is calling for more men to go there, where "peace still rages unabated," Unless he can bring off something more definite with Carranza than is at present' m prospect, his Mexican policy becomes more of a farce than ever. I .. Problem of the Toll Bridges. ! The question of a free bridge is part and parcel of the good roads problem which is pressing for solution. . It is a chronic eyesore and an increasingly annoying impediment to the growth and prosperity of this great center of population that the toll collector stands in , the way of transportation and traffic between the eastern and western portions of this com munity. World-Herald. Straight to the point, but still the objection to the toll collector levying tribute on transportation beween Omaha and Council Bluffs spplies also to the toll collector who holds up traffic on bridges which travelers must cross in interior parts of Nebraska. The framers of the republican state platform ' perceived this evil and have promised the remedy in the good roads plank. The republican pledge commits republican can didates not only to best efforts for road imnrnv. ment through a fully empowered sfste highway commission and by qualifying for our share of the federal good roads appropriation, but adds, "As a part of the good roads program we favor elimination of toll bridges so that the use of the highways from one end of the state to the other shall be free to all.? No such plank is to be found in the democratic platform. The bridge between Omaha and Council Bluffs is, and must be, an interstate crossing requiring joint action by public authorities on both sides of the river and possibly national legislation. We can tackle the problem of the toll bridges over the Platte, and other streams wholly within our own state boundaries, through our own lawmak ers, and "without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation on earth." For an Honest Fruit Container. Representative Reavis bids fair to perform sf distinguished, and certain' to be appreciated, serv ice for the householders of the land in pressing for passage his bill to regulate the size of boxes or baskets in which fruit is to be vended. In no other form of merchandising has the public sub mitted to greater imposition than in the selling of fruits. All sorts of devices and tricks have been used, from the elevated bottom in the berry box to the basket with the sloping sides, each particular container having about it something that would deceive the purchaser. The dealer has always consoled his conscience with the thought that he was selling a "box" or a "basket," and not a stipulated quantity. A growing prac tice, tending to overcome in some, way the diffi culty, is to sell fruit, vegetables and the like by the pound. This equalizes1 the bargain, and is much nearer to exact justice than the older method. But boxes and baskets are not readily to be dismissed as factors in the progress of edi bles from field to table, and so if they can be standardized, and the buyer protected from chicanery, it will be the better - v- : - r . ITOhAV Thought Nugget for the Day. All progress of the best kind is slow, but to him who works faithfully and zealously the re ward will be vouchsafed in good time. Samuel Smiles. On. Year A en Todav in the War. Petrograd reported Germans defeated before 'Metro-German army captured Warsaw, storm ing the city's last defenses. Italians drove Austrians out of fortifications at two points on eastern front French driven from crest of Lingekopf, but threw back Germans elsewhere in Alsace. This Day in Omaha Thirty Years Ago. .

Storyette of the Day. '- , .'". . The wounded Highlander seemed to make no headway toward recovery. He was forever talk ing about his "bonnie Scotland," and the idea occurred to the doctor that a Scotch piper might arouse his spirits. Accordingly, he found a piper, and arranged that he should pour forth all the gems of Scottish music the pipes were capable of interpreting. When the doctor called the next morning he eagerly asked the matron , "Did the piper turn tap?" "He did," replied the matron. a "And how's our Scotch patient?" . "Oh, he's fine I never saw such a change," said the matron. - "That's grand. That was a, fine idea of mine," said the delighted doctor. . ' "Yes," replied the matron, sadly, "but the other thirty patients have all had serious relapses," Youth's Companion. ' " . HUGHES' ACCEPTANCE. New York World (Dem.): Mr. Hufhei' ipeech of acceptance ie the public eonfceiion of a candidate who l without an leeue and without a policy. New York Tribune: One eleer note runs through the whole of Mr. Huthea' ipeech of acceptance. It ! a challenge ol incapacity, an indictment of failure. Waahington Port: The Srrt apeeeh of ac ceptance la unquestionably a etronc attack. The country wiU now wait eaferly to hear how Mr. Wilion meota It Troy Times: Even the Wilson smile and the lingual fancy of the White House might be sunnosed to .hesitate under the terrlne as. aault made by the orderly assembling of facta at Carnegie hall last night Philadelphia Inquirer: "America first and America efficient" It la a long road to trav. el to reach that goaL If we are going to start on It the Srst step must he taken in November next by the election of Charles E. Hughes president of the United States. Philadelphia Ledger: His enemies and the enemies of "America first and America em cient" must Snd better weapons of attack then the silly falsehoods they are now re. peating, the foolish demands that Mr. Hughes shall do that which he has already done with crashing effect Washington Star (Ind.): "America first. and America eOeient" Couuld the republl cane ask for a better slogan T Does it not cover the whole ease? If they win, their paramount consideration must be America s Interecte, and their task the devisement and execution of policies serving those Interests, Minneapolis Journal: Hera Is the outline of a sound plan for the preservation of peace among the nations plan that re veals Mr. Hughes anew as a dear thinker who bases his reasoning on fundamental facta. What a, feeling of confidence it would give the American nation to have such a man In the White House I Boston Transcript: From start to Snish the address of acceptance is a calm recital of the record of the administration and a dtspaasionate depletion of the Inefficiency that stains Its every page. Mr. Hnghes in dicts Mr. Wllsen upon the charge of incom petency and finds him guilty upon the facts that are of official record. , Baltimore American: Mr. Hughec has left nothing undetermined in his position upon any of the principal issues. He believes the opaqueness of the outlook for the country may be relieved of. much of Its elements of apprehension. He indicates that there is a way of American honor, American consist ency and American peace.. Milwaukee Sentinel: Mr. Hughes' analy sis of the whole course of the administration reduces to absurdity the claim for Mr. Wilson that he "kept us out of the war." The events that might have brought us into the war were primarily the results of tha forcible-feeble policies, and the consequent impression of hia administration. New York Herald (Ind.) Mr. Wilson may with cere match Its literary style, hut if he Is going to match Mr. Hughes he must speak aa president of the United States and not of humanity in general, and as the nominee of a political petry and not of the world at large. For Mr. Hughes proclaima himself an American candidate, and his watchword is "America first and America efficient" ' EDITORIAL SNAPSHOTS. Chicago Post: Mr. Wilson probably real ises now that Charles Evans Hughes haa been nominated. Philadelphia Press: The president's fre quent changes of mind are jmly from the frying pan to the lire. ' Wall Street Journal: Single-track minds seem to have an embarrassing number of sidings with stub ends. , Baltimore American: The one-term plank in the Baltimore platform is going to be ef fective whether Mr. Wilson wills it or not Boston Transcript: After reading Mr. Hughes' new sign post the hyphenates must feel that they are all attired with no desti nation in sight ' Washington Star: The old adage to the effect that there is no mail whose place can not be filled has not held good in the case of Porfirto Bias. Washington Star: The progressiva vice presidential candidate Is the only man who is conspicuously announcing that he feels like a bull moose. Boston Transerlpt: " We fear that Mr. Hughes, has lost beyond the possibility of recovery the solid bandit vote in every bor der, county In Arisona, New Mexico and Texas. Detroit Free Press: ?ne meanest thing that has been said in the eampaign eo far was said by the Wall Street Journal, which pulled thia: "A vote for Wilson is a vote for Daniels." Washington Herald: British engineers fear the Panama canal is without a firm foun dation. General Gocthals probably wQl re ply that the British fears are without any kind of foundation. , St Louis Republic: At any rate, the in vestigation ot the conduct of American troops in the Columbus massacre reveals the fact that Colonel Sloeum was no more sur prised than the rest ot the army. Philadelphia Telegraph; If President Wil son Intends to welt until congress adjourns for the notification of his nomination the election may be over before he ie omicially wise to the fact that he is a candidate.
