We observed recently, with sadness and re sentment, a statement in defense of large ex penditures for a republican candidate for the presidency, to the effect that they were essen tial in order to acquaint the public with his fit ness for the office and properly introduce him to his party. Since when has this become necessary? For sixty years the republican party has been nominating presidential candi dates, and every one of them had a national reputation previous to his candidacy for the nomination. Has the party fallen to so low an estate that the people must be educated to know what its candidates have done to entitle them to consideration? We trow not. Fremont, the party's first candidate, was known as an explorer. The people had dubbed him "The Pathfinder." Lincoln was the popular champion in the Lincoln-Douglas history-making debates. Grant was the great leader of our armies in the War of the Re bellion. Hayes led the sound money campaign in his race for the Ohio governorship, watched by the entire nation. Garfield was an astute party leader, both in congress and in its na tional councils. Blaine had been the party leader in congress for twenty years. Harrison had been a United States senator and was the grandson of the hero of the famous log cabin and hard cider campaign of 1840. McKinley had been governor of Ohio and his party's leader in tariff legislation in congress. Roose velt had captured the imagination of the people as colonel of the Rough Riders. Taft had been the first civil governor of the Philippines, as well as secretary of war, and had twice declined appointments to the supreme bench of the J United States. Hughes had been twice governor of New York and was a justice of the national supreme court when nominated. Who can study the achievements of these il lustrious men and listen with patience to the plea that it is necessary to spend vast sums of money to tell the people who and what a re publican candidate for the presidential nomina tion is? Such a candidate would be unfit from the very fact that he was unknown to the people, evidence of his lack of achievement in an age of general intelligence in such matters. Let us be honest about these expenditures for candidates. They have but one purpose, that of capturing delegates. Only that and nothing more. They may be both legitimate and legal. We have no doubt they are. But the public, never quick to discern the line between legitimate and improper political financing, is both justly and unjustly prejudiced against the lavish use of money to promote the political fortunes of any man. They cannot be purged of the belief that those who contribute these funds will receive payment later in political favors to which they are not entitled. Running A Wife By Time-Table. Efficiency in the home is quite as necessary as it is in the factory. The home is, in fact, a happiness factory for the family when its mis tress gives intelligent attention to her duties. It is, of course, a moral obligation that the hus band, in his wisdom, should aid to the extent of his ability in making the home all it should be, but alasl How often are his well meant ef forts spurned. , Take the case of William Economo of De troit, for instance. William is a methodical man, a believer in time schedules, who would have his -wife improve not only each shining hour, but every precious minute. Knowing that success is not attained by haphazard methods, he devised a time table for his new wife. It re quired her to rise at 5:45. At 5:57 she was to be dressed. At 5:59 her hands and face were lo be washed. By 6:19 breakfast was to be fready and eaten. William went to work then, but the time table provided for sweeping and other house hold work during his absence. It was an ad mirable arrangement, in that it developed speed in the performance of home tasks. One day William discovered that 20 minutes of his wife's time were unoccupied, whereupon he re vised the time-table and suddenly found his domestic accommodation train side-tracked in the divorce court station. The judge, acting as train dispatcher, ordered it run to Alimony, where the brakes were set and the engine taken to the round house. What encouragement is there any more for husbands to make themselves useful about the iouse? Here was a loving mate who might have made his wife a standardized model of domestic efficiency. But she was not clock broke, j She wouldn't work on a time schedule. Now she gets up when she wants to, does as she pleases, and her husband has to pay her $10 a week after trying to run her "like an automobile factory. It is discouraging for husbands isn't it? The High Cost of Politics. The statement is made that it costs the government 20 per cent of the amount collected to gather the income tax. It seems incredible, but the generally inefficient and extravagant method used in public business generally will give credence to the story. The hordes of superfluous clerks in all the Washington de partments and the freedom with which public money is squandered for all other governmental purposes, lead people readily to believe that it does cost 20 per cent to collect a tax which the citizen must pay of his own volition. There is hardly a business in America, run on a credit system, that would not go bankrupt if its collections cost it 20 per cent of its receipts. What is the trouble? Just this: The American people, in both national and state administrations, pay not only the legitimate expenses of government but also the political up-keep of the pakty th;t happens to be in power. Not directly ,of 4tWirsf: K"t certainly. The unnecessary officeholders, the loafing on every political job, the short hours of swivel-chair favorites, the frequent holidays, all should be charged to the party in power, not to the government. But the politicians, by ways that were dark and tricks that were not in vain, have so entangled party debts with public debts that the people pay them all. If a correct com parative audit of the amount paid out of public treasuries for actual government and for purely party purposes could be made, it would be an amazing revelation. No Factions in Pershing Campaign. One fact in connection with the candidacy of John J. Pershing that is taking on greater im portance as the' election date draws nearer is that he represents no faction. Of his republic anism there is no question; it is as firmly established as his patriotism. He represents the best there is in politics, and his presence should unite the groups within his party in Ne braska which have for so many years and with more or less acrimony contended for supremacy. Any republican can vote for Pershing and feel that he is doing himself honor. It is not to be inferred from this that Persh ing is put forward as a compromise candidate. Far from that, he is presented to the people as the logical man for the place, and because of his eminent fitness it is possible to unite the party on him. His success will not be the achievement of a group, a faction, or a cabal; it will be a triumph of the people whom he has well served in important ways throughout his manhood vears, and who are now calling on him to accept a higher and more important place in the service of the nation and the world. German Craft and Allied Credulity. Now we have the assurance of a staff corre spondent in Germany that the existing bolshevik uprising is but a gigantic bluff, camouflage for a desire on part of the schemers at Berlin to se cure further concessions on treaty terms. Some already have been granted, and more are looked for. So a "revolution" is invented, followed by a demonstration in force by the government to show its good faith, and it in turn gives way to the threat of anarchy. The devotion of Herr President Ebcrt and his coadjutors to the treaty obligation is touch ing, but their sincerity is open to a growing sus picion. Mr. Henry Wales, cabling to The Bee, says the "outbreak" that is" now so frightful to timid souls, can be put down by a simple march through Essen valley, but the authorities at Ber lin, the reactionary and the radical groups alike, hope that by sending up this smoke cloud they may convince the Allies that a tremendous fire is burning, and needs most immediate attention. Only through substantial modification of terms on which peace with Germany was made can the conflagration be quenched. This is supplemental, of course, to the ac counts of conditions with which we were re galed earlier in the winter. German workmen, it was thfcn told us, refused to take up their vo cations because all they produced Would go to r ranee, and they could not content themselves under the conditions. That did not brine: re sults, and now the stage is set with another pic ture. The trick is an old one, and has almost lost its potency. The Allies are not so credulous as the Ber nese would like to think, and we mav feel sure that no material concessions will be made the losers until they have done what they can to meet terms agreed upon and shown them to be impossible. Adjustments may then follow, but will always be as near as possible to what Ger many is capable of doing when all its resources are actively employed in useful production, and not dissipated in vain and idle marches. Out With the Turk. Americans without regard to other division of opinion will join with President Wilson in demanding that the Turk be ousted from Europe and deprived of any dominion over Christian peoples. The character of the note to the Al lies with regard to the treaty of peace now be ing formulated for the Turk is clear, emphatic and resolutely American in its tone. Along with is must go a perfect understanding of what it involves. The French government expresses perfect concurrence in the spirit and purpose of the note, but asks "how these ends can be achieved without the force necessary to deal with the trouble certain to result among the Mussulman population." Mustapha Kemal, leader of the Turkish na tionalist faction, is busy striving to ' arouse Mohammedans to a holy war, asserting that the occupancy of Constantinople is an insult to the Moslem world. He has declared the sultan no longer caliph of Islam, an act of rebellion, but one that must certainly appeal to the fanaticism he is cultivating. Yet, in the face of this, the United States has a right to demand that the powers of Europe deal firmly with the Turkish situation, to the end that the presence of this enemy of civilization in Europe will no longer irritate and disturb the peace. The proposal that Russia be given a voice at such time as a stable government is set up there, with a right tc review any action now taken at Paris, is also sound. Russia's concern in the Bosporus and Dardanelles exceeds that of any other European nation. Only jealousy of Rus sia and a desire to shut off Odessa from easy communication with the outer world by leaving the sultan supreme over the straits connecting the Caspian with the Mediterranean has held the situation as it has been for so many years. When the Turk has been expelled from Europe, and the important waterway he has so long straddled has been internationalized, a potent bond for permanent peace will have been given the world. Somehow one does not relish reading the name of "Grover Cleveland" in connection with the conviction of a slander. It seems a profanation. Mississippi in reverse is trying to overtake Delaware in "go-ahead." The race is worth watching. The main point is: What need has one small California town for six burying grounds? Omaha's air mail is saved again. Reminds us of the Indian bureau warehouse. Doug and Mary will soon be ready to stage a film called "Experience." A Line 0' Type or Two Haw to tha Llae. lat tha aulpi tail whars thsy nay. Will Mississippi let the women vote? A CHARACTER in one of Mr. Thomas' plays remarks that there is nothing less worth watching than a bum game of billiards. But at Ormond Beach last Saturday a gallery watched Mr. Rockefeller play a round of golf. When Californlans Fall Out (From the Los Onglaze Times.) To the Editor of The Times: Howl your blasted head oft about us rent profiteers and that is all the good It will do you. Why do I charge $25 now for a room that not so long ago I would have been glad to have got $10 for, or $8, or leas from a tenant who would have paid a year In advance? For tha same reason that you have doubled the price of your paper and reduced the size about 60 per cent because I can get it, and we would both be fools if we did not get it, and we would both be fools if we did not make hay while the sun shines. I'm onto your curves. We will keep away the tourists, you say. Not on your tin type; we can depend upon you, the Chamber of Commerce, myself and other highly-respected citizens inventing a new and improved bait to bring in the lambs to be shorn. Anyway, statistics show that a new sucker is born every second, and there are a great many seconds between now and the first of next November, count 'em. You daren't print this, darn you, it hits too near home. M. O'T. PRESUMABLY after consulting an ouija, Count Tolstoy declares that bolshevism will spread slowly over the entire world and then slowly subside. Us, we should prefer an ice cap, or, if something warmer is desired, a head on collision with an A. B. comet. PROHIBITION has emptied the lockups, and promises to do as much for the peniten tiaries. The gentry that used to fill these in stitutions are now harder to lay hands on. Liquor dulled their wits, robbed their fingers of a. required delicacy, and relaxed that alertness and sense of responsibility without which a big job may be wrecked. THE HEIGHT OF DEPRIVATION. (From the Puyallup Valley Tribune.) Owing to an extreme night-and-day pres sure in the mechanical department of the Tribune, together with our inability to se cure either extra printers or pressmen, we have been obliged to go to press this week without an editorial column. "OUR shoes will talk for themselves," ad vertises a Mt. Carroll merchant. And we know of no way -of stopping them, although soaking in sold water has been advised. Blight Sayings of the Juveniles.

FOUR-FIFTHS BRANDY MAKES AN EVEN BETTER DRINK. Sir: In the privacy of the Union Station a fellow gadder gave me the following recipe, which I am glad to pass on to others of our order. Take four gallons of distilled water, pour into a large vessel and bring to a tem perature of 140 degrees. Take four cakes of yeast, breaking them into small pieces about 1 inch square, adding one piece to the boil ing water every ten minutes. When this op eration is complete, add thirty-six raisins, at the rate of one every three minutes. Boil for three hours, skimming when needed. Store contents of vessel for 35 days, preferably in a dark room. To get a passably good drink strain liquid intoan ordinary tumbler, filling the glass about four-fifths, and add one-flftli brandy.

I wish to thank my custom ers for their patronage and hope they will continue taking milk from me Monday. John Mulder. TRADE CLASSICS. Sir: Herewith a couple of t. c's carelessly omited from your list: In the middle of a trial a client was forced to leave the courtroom, and left word with his at torney to wire him the result of his case, as he was called out of town. The attorney was young and enthusiastic, and on securing a successful judgment, wired:- "Truth and justice have triumphed." The next morning he received the reply. "Appeal at once." Two attorneys arrived late at a funeral, and hung up their hats in the cloak-room The min ister was making the welkin ring with the virtues of the deceased when the second lawyer came out of the anteroom. He asked, "Are we very late, Jim?" "I don't know, but I think we are. Anyway they have opened for the defense." DOUBLE BARREL. "TRY to Wreck Chicago Train with $150, 000." Must have been in pennies. Emboldened by Success. Sir: Some time ago I offered enough of my scanty store of good whisky for a souse to any one furnishing proof that the ostrich buries its head in the sand and imagines itself hidden. There were no takers. Now I make the same offer for any valid evidence of the truth of the story-book phenomenon that anyone's hair ever turned white (or even gray) overnight. C. D.

The testimony in ravor of breast feeding which comes from the re cently warring countries in Europe is as telling and almost as unexpect ed as was that from Paris in 1871. It will be recalled that during the siege of Paris the baby death rate was very low. The reason was that, there being no cows, no cow's milk was available, and every mother had to nurse her baby. Just before we went into the war Lucas reported that the baby death rate in Belgium was unusually low, partly because the scarcity of cow's milk forced an increase in breast feeding. Soon after the evacuation of Lille Calmette of the university faculty wrote of infant welfare in Lilie dur ing the German occupation. The Germans confiscated all the cows and the babies had to get along without cow's milk. Breast feeding became practically universal. The few women who could not breast feed their babies got other mothers to help them out. The baby death rate was very low. Calmette felt so deeply on the sub ject that he pleaded against the es tablishment anywhere in France of any infant welfare depot if they gave away or sold cow's milk or in any way promoted its use. Now comes Dr. C. Ginl with a report on infant welfare conditions in Ger many during the war. In August and September. 1914, there was a heavy baby death rate. After that the baby death rate was low. In Berlin and Breslau only 15 to 20 per cent of the babies are breast-fed during ordinary times. After Ootober, 1914, the percent age of babies who were breastfed almost doubled in these two cities. With the increase in breast feeding the baby death rate fell. The re ports from Dusseldorf, Bremen and Wiesbaden were practically to the same effect. The rural districts in Germany did not show the same improvement. On the one hand, the farmers had more cow's milk and they continued to supply of their own families. On the other, the campaign for breast feeding did not extend into the rural districts. Dr. Gini thinks the baby death rate was low during the war in every warring nation in western Europe except Italy. I have seen no conclusive data from Rus sia, Austria or the Balkan countries. The teaching is plain that if a mother will breast-feed her baby it will be able to withstand a great deal of almost any kind of privation and exposure. On Children's Diet. P. S. D. writes: "1. I would like to know whether nut butter is good and wholesome for children? "2. 1 would also like to know which is better, nut butter or oleo margarine?" REPLY. 1. Yes, provided the children get enough of the growth principle. Some nut butters get the growth principle from milk in which they are churned. Children get it from milk and green vegetables, as well as from milk butter. The latest re search work indicates that cream and milk butter is not so important as we have been led to believe. 2. Oleomargarine contains more milk butter and more milk. For the present, at least, parents must in sist upon children getting a free al lowance of milk or milk products and green vegetables.

To the Editor of The Bee: I want It understood that I am not In favor of the saloon coming back, for I think that is just the reason the prohibi tion law was passed so strict but I think the government should manu facture the whisky, make it pure, and have a place to buy it at whole sale and pass a law to allow each person to have so much liquor a month and not sell a drop over the bar or by retail, and make each per son take it home and use it at home, and I do not think you would see one drunk man where there were 25 when they could go in the saloon and treat. I think with this, way of running the liquor business the bootlegging would die a natural death for, in the first place they could not get very much to bootleg and in the next place you would not buy the moon shine stuff when you would get a little good whisky at the wholesale house. In the third place they could not sell their liquor at a large enough profit to pay them to take chances. I see the other day where the government appropriated $4,000,000 to fight the whisky and try to keep down the bootlegging. As long as the country is "bone dry" they will never do it, and as long as they can sell their stuff for $18 and $20 a quart there will be plenty of fellows to take a chance. There is a law against gambling, but if you have a deck of cards at home or in your pocket the law does not make that a criminal act unless you are caught playing for money. So I can not see where there is any thing criminal about having a 1 ottle of liquor on your person any more than if you had a plug of tobacco, so long as you attend to your own busi ness and if you don't we have always had a law to take care of that kind of ft fellow, I thing the 18th amendment will be knocked out and declared uncon stitutional and I think that the people with good sound Judgment will say it Is better to restrict the liquor business and allow the people to have a certain amount of good pure liquor than to say you shall not have a drop of anything, for when you try to drive the American people they are a good deal like a hog their head is on the wrong end. S. S. DIXON". Notes of the Season All Fools day was formerly on January 1 and not April 1. April's precious stone is the sap phire, which symbolizes "repent ance." On the evening of Easter day in early times an effigy of Judas Is cariot was solemnly burned. There was an old belief that any child born in the last seven days of April would "dye a wickedde dethe." Easter is derived from a goddess, Eastre (to shine), whose festival, as she was the goddess of spring, was held in April. France has a weird tradition that on Good Friday all the trees quiver and shudder in dread remembrance of Christ's passion. In Cornwall the peasantry believe that if they remove their bees from the hive on any other day than Good Friday, death will assuredly occur to ' these useful and industrious insects. Gbod Friday is called in France Passion Friday; in Germany, Still Friday; whilst in Denmark it is termed Long Friday, an allusion to the lengthy fasts in connection with its celebration. In some countries exists a supersti tion that it is unsafe to hang out the clothes on Good Friday, and all soap suds must be carefully poured away, otherwise sickness and sorrow will invade the family. In the old nature worship of vari ous peoples the Easter rabbit and eggs originated. Rabbits and eggs are emblematic of fertility: Easter is the spring festival, at which, among Latin and Teutonic races, the fruit fulness of nature is worshiped. In Germany the children are taught if they are good and mind their parents and are truthful and kind to one another a white hare will steal into the house on Easter eve, when everybody is asleep, and secrete any number of gayly-colored ef.gs in the corners of the room. A search in the morning soon reveals a nest filled with Easter eggs.
