'DIVIDED -AGAINST JTSELF.
Each day brings forth new proof of the hope
less division of the idemoothtic arty. The pres
ident himself has thrust His personality .gain
into tht breach, with the inevitable result of
widening the gap that yawns between his fol
lowers and those of the party who do not hold
with him. Among the latter is Senator Cham
berlain of Oregon, at whom was aimed the re
markable telegram sent to Chairman Hamaker
of the Oregon state tfemocrtnic committee. The
senator has been the, object of a vicious "ftuest
from the White Housv since early in 1918, 'when
the dignity of the president was laid aside long
enough to denounce the senator as a liar on
account pf something die had said in connection
with the war, ' '
Nebraskans will retell without especial ef
fort that at that time Senator Chamberlain' -was
chairman of the senate committee on military
affairs, Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska then
being the ranking member as well as chairman
of the committee on foreign relations. Front
this, committee had qpme a resolution to 'es-'
. u 1 : . u , t 1 f . t ,
iouiisii t supci -uuaru ivi me couuuti 01 llic
war, to be named "by and with the consent Of
the senate." This was soon blanketed by the
Overman resolution, continuing the president
in his absolute control of all connected with
the war. The incident is not. forgotten at the
t.T i c 4. c t
been forgiven. . "
It is not convenient to accuse the Oregon
senator of disloyalty, as was the senator from
Mississippi two years ago, but indirectly -the at
tack is made through the message to Hamaker.
Senator Thomas of Colorado, of whose sincere
devotion to the democratic party there is up
question, in clear words answers this covert as
sault: . , . '
I do not wonder Senator Chamberlain has
aroused anger, because day a.nd night he has
stood in this senate for America and American-,
ism. As chairman of the committee on mili
tary affairs,, with tireless energy every day and .
- sometimes at night, hedjscharged his duty in
this senate, thereby writing for himself a
, jtcord that shall endure.as long as people ap
preciate the services pf their iellowr
men. I do not hesitate to say, that as chair-;
man of the military -affairs committee Senator
Chamberlain contributed more to the success
of American arms than any other man V , .
Turning to another phase of the question,
Senator Thomas solemnly warned l)i$ party
that to follow the president means suicide. His
words: ' ft '
want to say that if the democratic party,
in its convention at San Francisco next month .
declare for unconditional ratification of this
treaty it will do so because it has determined
(hat it does not car.e to live any longer and ac
cepts that means of certain dissolution.
The plight of the democratic party could
npt be more succinctly and luminously summed
up than' has been done by the venerable senator
from Colorado. Mr. Wilson, to borrow the
Wattcrsonian j phrase, is leading his party
"through a slaughter house to an open grave."
who have money handy will get all the benefit
of real bargains in cash investment opportuni
ties when money will buy twice what-it brings
now.'
The wist tfuys, if we may be pardoned for
relapsing into the vernacular, are the birds who
are slipping theirs into the banks and watching
it grow until the time shall arrive whenthe
fatness of the land is. ready for delivery to
those who have their kale bundled in bank.
' A Good Job Well Done.
The P ha'stem to congratulate Conductor
Harrington of the street car forces for the sum
mary and effective manner in which he dis
posed of footpad: The latter individual hat
but his cupidity to" thank for his present predica
ment. He hatt successfully robbed the con
ductor of $52, presumably receipts from his run,
but not sM'ined with tkis haul, he came back
and' tried to take away the watch his victim
valued as his own personal proptrty.
It would be pleasant indeed to' record that
the valiant young man had exhibited as much
4ttcirude for the funds of, the company at he
did for his own possession, yet it is easy enough
to understand how he might hesitate to risk his
life to save that in which his personal concern
was but collateral and even remote. When it
came to the matter of 'what actually belonged
to him, however, his indignation rose to such
effective pitch that the robber was mercilessly
pummeled, then Joaded on the car and igno
miniously .hauled away, as a trophy to be
turned over to the police. ,',
In dealing with the affair, it might not be
amiss to call attention to the fact that the con
ductor has exhibited a very common trait of
human nature, and one that gets frequent ex
pression. Most of us find it comparatively
easy to dispose pf the property of others, but
vigorously resent any attempt to dispossess us
of oup own. Something pf this sort is the rock
pf which' socialism finally goes dpwn. Th,e
grpup easily divides that which does not "belong
jto it, parcelling out the belongings of those who
have been more fortunate, thrifty or enterpris
ing, or in whom the sense of acquisitiveness is
abnormally exhibited in the accumulation of
material things, but when it comes to touching
the meager holdings of the individual, straight
way objection is made.
Human nature is human nature, no matter"
hpw it may be disguised.
The Father of tht Chautauqua!
Bishop .John H. Vincent pf the Methpdist
church was the father of'the chautauqua, which
it is wprth remembering.' is an evolution from
the old-time Methodist camp-meeting. Qen.
U. S. Grant introduced. Mr.' Vincent when a
young preacher to Abraham, Lincoln with these
words: "He was my pastor when I lived in
Galena. 'I do not think I ever missed one of
his, sermons." '
"The bishop was a pioneer in the production
of Sunday school lessons and literature and
we'nt to Palestine three times the better to
learn how to present Biblical truths to chil
dren. He was a contemporary of Dr. J. M.
Buckley, the greatest church editor Methodism
has yet paoduced,-.and a powerful influenc.e in
the councils of his church. Both men died this
.year, Buckley at ?3 arid Vincent at88.
"Pancho" Villa, Plowman.
When thfi soldier of the Roman republic
went to war.iflie had before him the- thought
that if the gods spared him to return, he would
end his days on a. parcel of plow land. Wherever
the "S.P.Q.R." blazed the way, it pointed to its
followers a future of idyllic peace, and behind
the clanging blows valiant Romans dealt always
loomed a vision of tranquility down on the
farm." From general down, this was the
' guerdon. So, then, it is not surprising that so
active a -warrior as- Francisco Villa should tire
of the tented field, the alarums that have dis
turbed, his repose these many years, and. long
for the domesticity of a rancher s life. To the
farm he has gone, his followers safely disposed
in one or another of the several armies of
liberation, whose activities have been tl.e un
doing of Venustiano Carranza, and who may
. shortly be expected to be flying at each other
in vain quarrels over the spils. ' ,
Into this retirement "Pancho" will .carry
many mementoes of his bosy career as bandit,
soldier, general, statesman, liberator, and heaven
knows what, among them, perhaps chiefly
treasured, tlje official letter from the Depart
ment of State of the United States, thanking him
for his services to civilization. He may also
take with him some souvenirs of a social call
he once paid the people of Columbus, N. U., at
well as pleasant recollections of the endeavor
that was made to return the amenities then ex
hibited.' We wonder if this has been forgotten
at Washington?
The f imagination is challenged by1 the
thought'of Villa living the life of a ranchero.
raising corn, beans, onions, leeks and garlic,
chicken, sheep and an occasional heifer, "and n
trying to picture his mental attitude when he is
aroused some night by an unexpected call from
a "general" in command of about a dozen
colonels and one private, bent on reaping the
1 reward of his patient endeavor, that the "afmy"
.may be fed. Nobody knows tlie process better
than he; will he patiently abide the result? How
ire you going to keep him down on Joe farm?

Can, SucK Thing Be?
The Hon. James Ham Lewis made the key
note speech in the Illinois democratic state con
vention Monday. He spoke thirty minutei and
never mentioned the League pf Nations.- Then
the convention, in the very teeth of Wison'
demand, flatly refused to endorse the league
without reservation. '
In the Methodist general conference at Des
Mojnes, the standing committee on the state of
the church tabled a resolution "deploring the
attitude of the United States senate' on the
covenant.
That the clergy are recovering from their
early beguilement is not so surprising as the
dumbness of the voluble Jim Ham. The presi
dent may well cry to him:' "Ef tu, Ham?"

MRS. PHARAOH CLEANED
HOUSEI
1 I don't suppose we are any dirtier
In the spring than at amy other, time,
but we think we are and that
amounts tb the same thing.
Maybe w do not even think we
are, but we are .more dissatisfied
with dirt, which bring ua to the
same point.
I do not know where we learned
it, perhaps from nature, for the
trees,1 the flowers, the grass, all pol
ish up in the springtime. Wherever
it may have come from, the practice
of spring cleaning is a Very old one
older than the Pharaoh, and
whatever comes to u hoary with
precedent must have some basis of
right.
We may not be able to prove Just
how it Is, but we do know that en
the average clean races are health
ier than dirty races, and clean indi
viduals and families likewise are
health gainer in some way or
other. It may be the gain is by the
elevation of standard of living car
rying with it elevation of standard
of bodily welfare. It may be by
lessening of flies; and some diseases
are due toifilth. Whatever the rea
son, tha effect Is incontestable
dirty, people are not healthy as a
rule.
I presume we would all practice
cleaner household and premise
cleanliness if we did not feel that
our neighbors would annul the good
effect by being careless with their
house and yard. One of the func
tions of a cleanup week Is to secure
fair play. When everybody clean
up during the same week tha com
plaint of unfair play will not lie. At
any rate, cleanup week is on old cus
tom honored by men.

' Where the Trouble Le.
Omaha, May 10.-To the Editor of
Th Bee: We note with Interest
your editorial, quoting, from and
commenting on what a New York
paper has said, in the morning issue
of May 10. . ' '
You speak of long hour, on the
farm and short hours in the city as
a cause for lack of production. In
this, I grant you partial cause, but
not all. A man who stays on a
farm and works, works for the en
joyment he gets out of working. The
mind enclosed in the skull of a
parasite can not conceive of a per
son working for the pure sake of
seeing - something worth while ac
complished in the effort he expends.
If- you will but investigate statis
tics, you will 'find that long hours on
a farm have not caused a death rate
early in life to farmers, nor have
.they removed from his, face the
ruddy glow of health, nor from hlfl
eye the luster and merry twinkle.
To what extent the rate of life
mortality is advanced through the
confinement of industry is problema
tical. Yet, we do know that long
hours in factory or office is not
economical, it doe not speed up
production but it doe increase over
head. It is realized that our daily read
ing matter has influence on the aver
age mind and if correct information
was given to the farmer about why
the industrial workers .require
shorter hours, the contention ad
vanced 'by your editorial could not
exist.
Physical exertion exhausts muscle
erlergy, which has great ' recupera
tive powers; while mental activity
echausts nervous energy, which does
not recuperate so rapidly. Both
forms of recuperation require the
condition of the body to be in a state
of efficiency or above par.
..To be healthful one should have
fresh air and sunshine, ozone, oxy
gen ultra violet rays, which are the
greatest healers and germ destroy
ers we have. .
Look "at the eye of the farmer,
look at the texture of his flesh.
Though his skin may have wrinkles

and his gait be clumsy, if he has
lived a clean liff the color of his
skin Is aglow with health and his
eye hits the sparkle of youth.
Compare the oftlce or factory man,
a clean life has not prevented the

because It Is produced through the
Agents of, fresh air and sunshine and
closer contact with nature, which

In his hours of pleasure and rest,
during which time he must re
cuperate his exhausted energies.
May I venture the eucgeatton that
the reason production 1 low i te
oai'se too mmch time Is wsted
thinking out how to blame the other

The Art of Typesetting
An advertiser's Idea may be as
completely lost Jn an inefficient
composing room as if it had never
existed.
In our composing room, type is made to
talk. Care Is taken that just the proper face,
the correct shape, and arrangement of the
form, are maintained to per feed harmonize
with the paper and mk to be used, the texl
and the class of business for bhich the idea
.stands. Our printers are artists not merely
, typesetters. Every conceivable modern con-
venience is at hand. The monotype machines
and type casters insure an inexhaustible sup
ply of new type at all times. We never
"distribute" type, to be used the second time,
but make it new for every job.
In rendering the complete service to the
- buyer of printing and advertising, we also
assure him that each and every branch of
, that service is as near perfect as it can be ..
made.
Your Idea, from first to last, is
perfected in every detail in our own
planU We make everything except
the paper.
