A CAMPAIGN FAILURE.
, vThe first fruits of the democratic campaign
are disappointments to the medicine' makeVs.
When Governor ; Cox began making his irra
tional charges the henchmen of his party lifted
up their voices in cacophonous chorus, and the
i air was dismal with their lamentations. The
presidency was to be purchased; the great Amer
ican electorate was to be corrupted, seduced,
debauched, beguiled? hornswoggled by dirty dol
lars. ' When the evil-minded plotters of the
republican party were finished,' our liberties
were to be all bound 'round with the pursc
strjngs of the plutocratsand the. nominee of the
" 'democrats would be buried under an avalanche
of dollars, not votes.
An investigation has been held, one to the
, conduct of which no leading democrat has yet
.voiced objection. Admissions there made under
oath by' the managers of the republican cam
paign are to the effect that money has been and
: is being raised to defray the legitimate expenses
of a vigorous canvass. Not a scintilla of proof
; has been evoked tc( support the silly assertion of
" the hysterical democratic " candidate that the
' t jnoney is to be used Improperly. Even the
democrats are gathering a fund to pay the cost
of their campaign. They know mote will be
- needed to cover the same ground this (time than
ever before, because of Jhe increase In the cost
of every item that enteas into the organization
and carrying out of a nation-wide political cam
paign. And" thiVwithout using a penny to un
duly influence a single .vote. ',
No sillier charge could have been made, nor
1 one carrying a more offensive implication, than
is contained in the assertion that the presidency
of the United States can be purchased. James
M. Cox knows this; every democratic editor or
1 speaker who repeats the charge knows it. The
voter of the Unifed States are not for sale to
the highest bidder, and it will be odd if they
4a -not rebuke their contemners at the polls.
or lost may cost him more, than. any single
transaction he ever negotiated ia Ihis private
business.
We are a great people to give a lot of atten
tion to trifles, and to dodge matters of
tremendous importance. Let us not do tliis in
the constitutional election near at hand.
Pleading the Cause of Japan.
.j One of the speakers at the Omaha gathering
of 'Methodists, a missionary in Japan, eloquently
pleads the cause of that country. He says : "I
love, trust, and have faith inj Japan, and those
who know her best trust her most." Other
nissionaries who have had occasion to deal, with
Japan, and have had some bpportunity to get
acquainted with both the government and the
people, are neither so eulogistic or -optimistic
in their expressions. - That, however, is a per
sonal matter. When a leader in the work of a
great church asserts that he believes fhat what
is looked on as a national policy is tht outcome
of "petty politics," his charge deserves consid
eration, ' ' J
Our policy of exclusion of Asiatics rests on
ethnological basis, .because experience has
taught that the yellow races and the white do
not mix. On the western coast, it was de
termined long ago that' the two could not live
harmoniously side by site, for the lower would
inevitably drive the higher out, Australia has
taken a similar view. The gates on the At
lantic coast do not swing on loose hinge, as the
speaker phrases it. On the contrary, strict regu-
lations have been adopted and are carefully en
, forced, to keep out the undesirable and the unfit.
. Japanese pride has been injured several times,
never more directly than at Paris when Presi
dent Wilson turned down the Makino racial
equality resolution. In California the people are
about to vote on Japanese exclusion, and with
little doubt as to the affirmative expression.
v Americans may'not understand sympathetically
all the problems that perplex the statesmen of
Japan, but it is not petty politics that has led
to the attitude now assumed in the United States
on the question.
For the League But Against Its Enforcement.
Governor Cox running as a League candidate
for the League just as it is, guaranteeing the
political boundaries of England, including Ire
, land as a part of Great Britain, and at the same
;jtime. declaring- for self-determination for . the
people of Ireland and expressing hisxympathy
with Irish rebellion against British authority,
is a sight for the gods.
Whafis the answer:
Only -this: Jjm "Cox will get on every side
of every question when he thinks there are votes
to be gained by so doing. ' He is a friend of all
and faithful to none, a professed adherent to
principles who does not hesitate to repudiate
'them; in a phrase, a 'thoroughly untrustworthy
and slippery politician of the baser sort, reck
less, untruthful and irresponsible. The factis
coming to be understood, proven by his own
campaign utterances.
In the Democratic Dressing Room.
DBAMATI8 PERSON AS:
Cox. Candidate for Prealdmt.
Grort While, hit Manaa-A.
(The? confer while a political meeting asemblet to
the muaio of a band.)
Cox. Well, George, how goes it? Am I not
a scream upon th stump? Do not my thunder
ous charges strike terror to the hearts of our
foes, and fill the proletariat with horror? Am I
not a bird, a pippin, a fat little bunch of All
fy'ght? Everywhere am I greeted with acclaim.
White. 'Tis even so, sire; but thy charges yh
remain unproven. The Public Press is insistent1
or thy proofs.
Cox. Let 'em get them, then, the proofs
may rot for all I care. I an) not concerned
about them. When, I have made my charges and
vcalled mine enemies liars, conspirators and per
jurers, the people are so filled with my wind
they can scarce await the day of election..
White. Perhaps so, sire; feut I fear the trend
of public opinion. It veers from us, and .tlTere
are ominous signs "
Cox. Forget it, George! The people cannot
resist me. My charming exterior,, my, musical
voide, my personal graces, all enchant them. "
White. But the League languishes, and
here is dearth of commendation from our Lord
Woodrow. . v ' 'f ''
Cox. He'll come across. He's got to come
across. The plague take him and his League! L
He s daffy over it. When I did bow and scrape
and crook the pregnant hinges of my.lcnees be
fore him, that I might win his public approba
tion, I was done. Now I'm out to win the elec
tion, not to cater to the whims and visions of 1
my Lord Woodrow. Let him blow his own
horn; I'll blow mine, and right handsomely, too.
Privately, I think my Lord Woodrow has
passed. " He's a has-been, a last year's4 birds
nest. Besides, my friend Murphy of Tammany
likes him not. Bother me no more with
thoughts of him. The audience awaits me
White. So be it, sire! I am not myself be
holden to him. I never liked his imperious man
ner, nor yet' his cold ways. -'Tis caution 'alone
spurs me to yield him obeisance. . '
.Cox. - Same here, George. He is in truth a
hard fit for me also. But as he may be used for
our present purposes, we shall speak of him with
honied tongues. When the election's won he
may tut-tut to his heart's content. I'll care not.
White. But in this parlous business of thy
charges 'gainst pur opponents. They challenge
us for proof, they press us, beset us ort every
side, and we have none to offer. I ftar
Cox. Fear nothing, old top! ''Dost thou"
forget ,how our Lord Woodrow, with confirma
tion of certain war up his sleeve; rodeto vic
tory on his "He Kept Us Out of War" slogan?
Just so I'll ride to election on my charges, pub-"
lished forth by me in evey state as having ton-
firniation strong as proofs of Holy Writ. .WhafJ
care we whether they be truth or falsehood if
they suffice? The ' cursed brood who cackle
under the wing of Will Hays seek to pin me
down to facts. They know not the quality of
mynetal. Truth must" ne'er o'erride our pros
perity. We'll play trie game by our own rules.
JtVhite- You're the boss. I yield. I do but
seek to counsel thee. If my -w6rds please thee
not I have no vanity to serve.
:L. Cox. Attaboy, Ge&rgel And now to the
stage. The people clamor for their favorite.
Let 'em holler their heads off. I'm the" presi
dential yellow kid, the whole show. A drink

Seaplanes and the Fishing Fleets.
A few years ago an Omaha man who once
had been a game keeper in the Black Forest
amused a little group of friends by telling how
he had "hunted the noble stag with the dachs
hund." One of the early reported exploits of
the war was the capture of a German airplane
by a British submarine. These sound strange,
but not much stranger than the reports coming
from both coasts of how fish are pursued by
seaplane. Only in thepractical vapplication of'
the flying machines to the fishing industry, the
aviator ft not expected "to land the finny vic
tim. He just locates hm, and the regularly
ordained fisherman does the rest. Instead of
the fishing boats putting out to sea, to cruise
in quest of the schools of fish they seek, they
remain grouped at an easily -negotiable dis
tance and wait reports from the flyer, who docs
the cruising. Simplicity, indeed, and effective,
showing how scierfce can be .so adjusted as to
help almost anybody.
v A Matter of Profit or Loss, i
The 41 proposed amendments to the consti
tution of Nebraska, which are to be voted on
Tuesday, September 21, are of vastly pore im
portance to the state than any law or dozen
ws ever petitioned for or protested against by
citizens. ,
This fact alone sufficiently emphasizes the
importance of giing these proposals careful
attention.' The business man who gives scru
pulous care to a circular letter he issues, or the
professional man who studies his case, for the
profit both of himself and his customer or
client, has ten times as much reason to,sudy
thtse proposed amendments.
One amendment passed may profit him more,
i -
Bargains in Banks.
A bank in Columbus, O., advertises: "A
bank has no bargains to offer. It can supply
:he public' only with Safety -and Service." A
bargain is defined as a 'transaction involving
good consequences. When a, bank tenders safety
for funds or service by loaning money, does it
not offer bargains? "
This bank, Tike most otljer sound financial
institutions that give their customers valuable
returns in conservative advice and fair returns,
is entirely too modest about its- usefulness.
Banks do have bargains. The safe keeping of
his, money alone is a bargain for any man,
because it is a transaction which always in
volves good consequences both for the bank
and the depositors.
Another thing to bear in mind is that list of
lovely, bewhiskered rich men "Wilton appointed
to ambassadorships, each of fnem, singularly
enough, having contributed heavily to the demo
cratic campaign fund.
Nebraska farmers are about to realize the
application of "Abe" Lincoln's report on his hay
crop. He said he stacked all he could outdoors
and put the rest in the barn.

rnsorl me of heinc a safc-bloweV. But the cam

for luncheon. But he tossed the meat to

had brought with them in their oar thirteen

and half a efushel of potatoes.

Hast thou,' O Time, within thy archives old
A record of that conversation great
When Galileo and young Milton sate
Bright face toface and did their dreams unfold?
Thou has it not; their speech no scribe hath told,
Yet we do know they spake, with souls elate,
Of new-found worlds, of stars and of that state
Wherein the Muse her empery doth hold. ,
For both were poets, both astronomers,
And each the other well could understand:
Their 'souls were brothers, kin to starry things,
And each to high imagination stirs
The mind as though the brow of a magic wand
Had touched, or else the tips of unseen wings.

SUBURBAN HAZARDS.
"Thousands of your readers have
moved from good sanitary condi
tions," Reader writes, "in Chicago
to theso-so conditions that prevail
in the ordinary suburbs. Most of
them, no doubt, like myself, have
rented or purchased old houses,
where sanitary conditions at the
best are only indifferent. Hardly
any of us, accustomed to the city
looking after our health, have had
any experience or knowledge of
those things which go vto make, for
health in the community. I am. be
ginning to get some Information and
confess that unless my children are
to suffer I shall have to get a good
deal more.
"Probably hundreds have gone or
are going through similar experi
ences as I am. Hence I venture to
give you our personal history. May
be you can do something to wake
up the health boards of our sub
urbs, or, if that is impossible' or
unethical, give us some advice along
sanitary lines.
"I moved to a small city about 25
miles out of Chicago last spring.
The house I purchased was built
som.e 40 years ago, but was of splen
did construction, and is in excellent
shape. However, it had run down
considerably the last few years, but
I found the plumbing in fair shape
and had the interior freshly painted
and papered.
"I have three children, the eldest
8 and the youngest 3, and not one of
them had been' sick while we lived
in Chicago. For the first few
weeks out In the suburb (it Is one
of the richest about Chicago and
was considered one of the healthi
est) children seemed to thrive, but
I noticed an enormous number of
measles cases in the town. About
the middle of June the eldest child
was taken sick. It seemed like an
attack of indigestion at first. Fever'
was Intermittent, and when he did
not recover after a day or so we
called in a doctor. He diagnosed
the case as typhoid-malaria.
"About the time the eldest began
to return to health the two younger
children were stricken in much the
same manner, although they were
not so bad as the first. To date
we have had six weeks of sickness
In this house.
"Now for some questions. As you
know, the method of garbage dis
posal in suburbs depends upon the
people themselves, and a great deal
cf stuff is thrown out the back door
onto the lawns.
"( 1 ) Could this fever be carried by
flies and transmitted to our chil
dren by spiders, of which we have
qjiite a number in this old house?
Could mejsquitoes carry the germs?
; . "(2 j fhave had the cesspool
cleaned out, but the sewer backs up
Into it, or at least tne 'joini irom
the toilet is so close to the cesspool
that some of the water is thrown
back into the pool. To my mind
the great trouble in suburbs is the
lax disposal of garbage.
"I have found out, since coming
hen that there was a typhoid epi
demic hero a couple of years ago,
and that it was traced to the milk
from a eertaiu Cairy, also to a
swimming pool at a town near here.
"We use raw milk, but the chil
dren' do not seem to care much for
it, although they thrive , on Jersey
milk they were supplied with all
last winter. Could the trouble be
with the - ws,ter. or ralher the
change in water from thac of Lake
Michigan, to that of the artesian well
which supplies this town?
."(3) Whom should I' get to ana
lyze the water and milk and make a
thorough investigation of the sani
tary arrangements on my place?
Does this come under the Jurisdic-.
tion of the local board of health,
or is it a matter I have to pay for
myself?
"For obvious reasons I am not
giving the name of the' town in
which I live, as I believe this mat
ter Is pertinent to every one who
has moved to the conntry from1 Chi
cago, and goes for all suburbs. If
this sickness keeps op I am afraid
the children will have to give up
the freedom of the country for the
health of the city. A lifelong Chl
cagoan. knowing the things that
need fixing in 'that city, does not
feel much like blowing the horn
while he lives there, but once 1st
him live somewhere else and he be
gins to change his mind. I suppose
this is the first time you ever had a
wal about the city being much
healthier than the country."
REPLY.
1. In order to bring your letter
within my limits I was forced to cut
out the details of the illness. There
is no proof that spiders convey any
disease. In the region of Chicago
mosquitoes practically never convey
disease. Flies convey typhoid, tu
berculosis, and some other diseases.
2. Artesian water is very apt to be
free from polution and Incapable of
spreading typhoid.
3. If the town has an organized
health department, equipped with a
laboratry, it will make the exam
inations. You are privileged to call
on the1 laboratory of the state board
of health.
Your criticism of suburban towns
is Well founded, except in a few in-
Jill
stances. Health authorities recog
nise that the worst conditions now
existing are those which prevail in
oities of less than 25,000 inhabi
tants. Such suburban cities, in jus
tice to their people, should arrange
for a Joint health department, serv
ing a group of suburban towns.
If there is nj satisfactory garbage
service, either burn your garbage
or bury it in your garden. Add a
little lime before covering it.
Some suburban communities get
a fair milk supply by close co-operation
with the health department
of the nearby city.
Probably the greatest risk lies in
the uncontrolled contagion. About
the only remedy available is great
parental vigilance. An alert school
board can protect the school chil
dren fairly well.
