Fraternal Societies and Press
atlas Bias, hi. Weei.-
: (Address of Supreme Commander to National
Fraternal Congress.)
' The newipapers have in the past, and do today,
show very great consideration for every line of
; fraternal endeavor, and their column! are usually
open to fraternal news ai a matter of community
; interest, and to announcements of fraternal help
i fulneti, as a matter which directly benefits the
community along humanitarian lines. Therefore,
when larger interests sre at stake, which affect
i vitally the future growth of these associations
and where commercial interesta are involved, w
should regard the matter from a commercial
standpoint, and treat the newspapers accordingly.
We apeak particularly in this report of display ad
vertising in the newspapers, because the news
paper is the greatest educational medium of the
times
;; It moulds public opinion. '(
i I would advise using the columns of the daily
(newspaper for advertising, becaute it goes
directly into the homei of the people fraternal
societies wish to reach. You can centralize your
fublieity and cover territory to good advantage,
o illustrate: If you wish to advertise in cer
tain sections of the country you can concentrate
your work better through tne daily press than
through publications of less frequent issues, and
:by so doing get quicker action than you could
'through other mediums. Magazine advertising
,is good for general publicity, particularly so where
ian organization coven the entire country, for
iithen they would get the benefit of a publication
iof general circulation.
ri Most people read their favorite newspaper!
idaily. Many times their opinions and beliefs are
iformed from the opinons and beliefi expressed
'in their daily papers. Our people are busy peo
jple, and the newspaper is their recreation. The
newspaper brings to the home each day the fresh,
new thought of the day. It expresses opinions
which its readers have not considered before,
ni which sometimes become their opinions.
People depend upon the newspaper to keep
sflhem posted on public affairs. The newspaper
-carries its thought directly into the mind of the
Reader. The newspaper ii expected daily, and if
.;it is not received something of importance haa
gone from the day. - .
V Tn ,"wpaper reaches the class of people
fraternal societies wish to reach. The newspaper
(reader is a man or woman with definite work to
do, which has to be done. Without much time
;.for the reading of fiction, the newspaper takes
; iiti place. - .

Selected because it believes in the policies which

Purpose of the Hughes Campaign.
Democrats accuse Mr. Hughes of finding fault
only in his speeches, asserting he has made no
constructive proposal, and that hi! criticisms arc
unjust because Mr. Wilson had to deal with a
large number of important questions, and ought
not to be blamed if he did not succeed in hand
ling them all with skill and judgment.
The nlea thin nut un is the natural answer
to one who has exposed the weakness of the ad
ministration. Extravagant claims maae tor tne
president have inevitably led to consideration
of what he actually has done, and turning the
search light on his blunders.
But Mr. Hughes has not devoted all his time
tn a rltaniaainn of democratic shortcomings. He
hai used the experience of the country for the
last three years to illustrate what may reason
ably be expected from continuation of democrats
in power. The difference between republican
and democratic policies hai been made plain.
Further, Mr. Hughei has outlined a definite pro
for the future, both conatructive and pro
tective in it! nature. He haa very plainly atated
hii beliefi, hi! hopes, mi aspirations ana nia pur
poses, and they are all to tne turtnering oi me
welfare of this country and its people.
The future of the country ia at itake in his
election, and that ia why Hughei' plain speaking
is winning- sunnort to his cause and proving
disappointing to the democratic spokesmen.
Another "Holy War" Under Way.
The Sherif of Mecca, who laya claim to the
distinction of being the titular head of Islam be
cause of hii heritage of the power and prestige of
the prophet, has declared a "holy" war against
the Young Turki. This proceeding will engage
attention of students of the great war ai present
ing another angle of the complicated politic! in
volved in the itrife. It amounts to nothing, 10
far ai its religioui significance is concerned. Sev
eral other forms of "holy" war have already been
proclaimed. The sultan of Turkey, pretending
to be the heritor of the prophet, issued a procla
mation early in the course of hii participation in
the conflict, declaring the war to be "holy" so
far ai it applies to the Entente Allies, and un
furled the green banner of Islam, but has not been
supported unanimously by followers of ' the
prophet, who are fighting under many flags. For
the matter of that, the czar of Russia is the head
of one church, while the king of England and
the emperor of Germany are nominal heads of
two other branches. Each of these hai, in effect,
if not In wordi, declared hii cause "holy," with
the result that the student of the future ia going
to be pressed lomewhat in hii effort to determine
which of the icveral causes ii the more holy, un
less he retiei on the time-honored dictum that
God fights on the side of the heaviest artillery.
Shaving the "Hairy Pollu."
A French general of high command haa or
dered that lotdieri be shaved, and that hereafter
the French army present a clean, open face to the
enemy. Thil order ii much bewailed by poets
and artists, who lament the prospective disap
pearance of the hirsute adornment! that have won
for a considerable portion of the fighting forces
of LaBelle France the descriptive appellation
of "hiry." The general, however, is not moved
by any considerations of sentiment, but supports
hii order by a itatement that the tramportation
wing of the army ii now compelled to carry a
great many ton! of unnecessary weight, the tame
being represented by the bushy beards of the two
million odd men who are thus equipped.
While the new move may not increase the
efficiency of the French forces, it will go a long
wayi toward minimizing the frightfulness of the
war, if the illustrations printed over tiere are
accurate. Hair on the face in no longer em
blematic of manhood, nor does its lack mean a
lessening of masculine virility, despite the re
mark! attributed to the kaiser. Many German
soldiers are clean shaven, while in the English
and American armies it hai been the custom for
many yeara to sliave daily. A beard in war time
ii a survival of lavagery; it it unsanitary and un-
' pretty at any time. The clean-faced man hai
lome comfort hit bearded brother can not under
stand. If the general's order ia carried out, the
French army will lose something from the point
of the picturesque, but it will be better looking
hereafter.
Salvation for the Moroa.
' A scientifically equipped expedition ii to be
sent out by the Rockefeller institute to save the
Moras. Soni of the Sului to whose undoing the
cocktail preceded the constitution, are to have the
benefit of the very lateit lervice for the uplifting
of mankind. Savants of the institute reason that
the Igoroti and other head-hunters in the outlying
Island! of the Philippine archipelago were re
deemed by the medicine men who went among
them and miniitered to their bodily ailments, to
the Sului, who are afflicted by a multifarioui
variety of diseases, comprising almost the entire
classified liat of ills that flesh is heir to, are to be
given the benefit of curative treatment The
capsule and the clinical thermometer are going in
the wake of the flag, and the little brown brother,
who is the active and energetic repository of the
amalgamated deviltry of all the brown and yellow
races, is to be subdued by kindness, administered
by trained nunes under the direction of eminent
practitioners. Mainly the hookworm is to be ex
terminated from amongst these unmanageable
heathen, but all other formi of existing disease
will be looked after, to the end that the Sului may
in time become a credit and hot a reproach to the
race. Ai aiding them towardi fitness for self
government, which the democrats propose, to
thruit upon them at lome future time, the move ii
a good one; and if we are to take them over at
citizen! of a territory of the United Statei, it is
certainly desirable that they come clean in flesh
if not in spirit. Either way, the Rockefeller ex
pedition ought to help.
The increasing courage of suffragists on the
sge question manifest! itself in ipoti. "Over 21"

shelters youth and middle age, elders flout it
and reveal the lecret of yean. In Chicago the

Canncrs' Present a Disclaimer.
Washington, D. C Aug. 25. To
the Editor of The Bee: In your Is
sue of August 6, under title ot "Can
ned Beans Kills" it was stated that
poison from eating canned beans re
sulted In the death at a local hospi
tal of Mra Philip Klien of Fremont,
Neb. The husband and two children
were taken 111 but recovered.
This matter svas called to the atten
tion of the Bureau of Publicity of
the National Canners' association, and
has been fully investigated. Through
Dr. Agee, the attending physician, tt
was learned that he first visited Mrs.
KUen on July 29, when he diagnosed
her Illness as Cholera Morbus. Dr.
Agee called Dr. George Haslam In
consultation and he performed an op
eration upon Mrs. Kllen at the hospi
tal. A signed statement from Dr.
Haslam says: "no Indications of pto
maine poisoning."
Dr. Haslam further stated to our
representative that he was responsi
ble for the newspaper statements that
Mrs. Kline died from ptomaine
poisoning caused from eating canned
pork and beans. That after Mrs.
Kline died, a reporter telephoned to
him and asked for the cause of Mrs.
Kline's death. He gave an evasive
answer, and when the reporter stated
that the family had said that her
death resulted from eating canned
pork and beans, and that It was pto
maine poisoning, he answered that he
supposed It was.
Dr. Haslam further stated that he
signed the death certificate stating
that the cause of death was obstruc
tion of the bowels, which was in
fact the real cause of death.
The canning Industry is a large and
honest one, and large sums of money
are expended in this Industry in your
own and adjacent states. Articles of
the nature of your original publica
tion are liable to influence the minds
of the consuming public against the
use of canned food, and we know that
you will wish to make a corrected
statement. In the past few years our
association has investigated several
hundred cases of alleged ptomaine
poisoning from the use ot canned food
but in no single instance have we
found a genuine case.

His Chance to Immortalize Himself.
South Side, Omaha, Aug. 26 To
the Editor of The Bee: I noticed
my old friend August Miller has been
writing to the president offering to
take charge of supplies of milk for
the , starving babies in Germany and
to deliver the milk In that country.
If the babies of Germany are really
starving why did not Mr. Miller send
a telegram to the captlan of the
Deutschland and offer his services, and
command that captain to take milk
back to Germany with him instead
of rubber with which to repair war
automobiles and nickel to use in shells
to kill men with? It would have
been more in keeping with the rules
of humanity If the Deutschland had
been loaded with ' condensed milk,
than with that which will tend to
prolong the war that much longer.
I would suggest to Mr. Miller that
when the submarine Bremen recahes
our shores that he at once hasten to
the east and insist on the Bremen
taking back milk instead of that which
will be used in killing men, and If the
captain of the Bremen refuses to follow
his advise, to take charge of the ves
sel himself and show his humanity
in deeds as well as in words. If Mr.
Miller is unsuccessful getting hold of
the Bremen, I would suggest that he
hire a fleet of submarines to take
that milk back to Germany. Mr. Mil
ler might immortalize himself if he
would go over to Germany and sug
gest to the Kaiser that he stop the
war, for then the babies would not
have to starve any longer If Mr. Mil
ler would order the Kaiser to stop
the war. He would be almost sure
to succeed In stopping the war and
and the name of Mr. Miller would be
immortalized in history. To stop the
war would be of more lasting bene
fit to humanity than a temporary ex
pedient of sending condensed milk to
the babies of Germany.

What Can the Poor Thing Do?,
Omaha, Aug. 2. To the Editor of
The Bee: The democratic organ has
been making the welkin ring recent
ly with wild appeals to the republi
cans to "stop In their mad career"
long enough to explain why the State
Railway commission Is to be shorn
of its rate- fixing and similar powers
in the interests of the federal com
mission. It has been shrelklng why?
Why? And now perhaps it may learn
why, as Its own dear Woodrow, by
one of those sudden right-about-faces
for which he is so justly famous, has
all at once come around to exactly
the same stand as the republicans
on this question. He has promised
the roads In a very low tone that
if they will be good and surrender
at discretion he and his congress will
get them an Increase in rates, where
with to pay Mr. Brotherhood the ran
som, he is demanding. And Mr. Wil
son proposes to get this rate increase
by giving the federal commission
greater powers. Evidently even a
democratic president knows too much
to attempt to get a raise from forty
odd state commissions, some of which
are ready' to die In the last ditch rath
er than grant a one-cent raise to the
roads. If a strike Is averted and Mr.
Wilson carries out his promise, what
will the poor World-Herald do? Gulp
twice and shut up, or appeal franti
cally to Its own leaders for informa
tion as to Why? Why? Why?

Good Old Milk Days.
Omaha, Aug. 26. To the Editor
of The Bee: When and where Is
the end?. Is there no remedy in
sight? Mr. Milkman, we are not all
fools. In the eighties I was In the
milk business myself In a small way.
Grass, which you .cannot but admit
Is your mainstay In summer, was as
plentiful this season as it was those
hot summers. Bran, corn and hay,
(Wonder of wonders) are no higher
In price than they were those years.
The milkman's work was almost twice
aa hard and heavy as it Is now, as
two deliveries were called for. And
you ask what . milk sold for then?
It was delivered for from twenty to
twenty-four, quarts tor a dollar. It
was not skimmed or watered, and
believe me, they made money. I no
tice that when one of our milk mer
chants does sell out his plant, he
generally take a trip to his father
land for six months or a year; comes
back and Invests in a hostelry, or
some other high priced and lucra
tive business. And they can't afford
to give us milk at the present prices!
Another thing I notice Is that the
most of them can afford an automo
bile or two, which the majority of
their customers cannot, but probably
eould if they were not continually
held up by the dairymen and others
of their Ilk. A. HI WALUND.

RAIN IN THE ROCKIES.
Qayoll Ne Trele.
It's) raining on the pine clad hills,
It's raining on the peaks.
It's raining on my cabin roof
And through tt where U leaks;
It's raining on my kitchen stove
And it's raining in my skillet;
Also Into my coffee pot
So that I don't have to fill It.
It'a raining hard on boulders high
It's raining in the narrows;
The drops descend anent the sun
Like jewel-shafted arrows;
Corona has a scarf of mist
Around her shapely crown;
But It Isn't raining rain up here.
It's raining pitchforks down.
The rain that leaks upon my roof
Keeps up a rhythmic rune.
And all day long within my heart
Beati one familiar tunc;
I can not sse the snowy peaks
Behind the drifting fogs;
But It Isn't raining rain up here,
It'i raining cats and dogs.
