An Emphatic Indication of Declining
Popularity.


Popularity.
Harper's Weekly.
1t is natural to couple the colonels rebuff
in his own state, such as 1t is, with Mr.
Bryan's rebuff in his state. Mr.. Bryan's
leadership has been at times as absolute
as the colonels; 1t has lasted longer, and
no office holding or office distributing has
helped 1t out But there is no comparison in
the matter of force and decisiveness be-
tween the two setbacks. 1t was not a group
or clique that administered Mr.. Bryan g;
1t was the overwhelming majority OF his
party in Nebraska. What has happened
TO him there is, therefore, a far stronger
and palmer indication of declining popu-
larity than what has happened to the col
onel IN New York. The nomination of Hitch
cock over Metcalf, Mr. Bryan's man for
senatorship is taken as confirmation and
emphasis of the earlier action OF the state
convention about the platform. The Ne
braska democrats may have gone farther
for a special reason than democrats else
where would go in the matter of turning
Mr. Bryan down. but the signs elsewhere
seem to read the same way. Whatever the
republicans may do, democrats seem plainly
inclined to try a new leadershtp-and not
so half-heartily as they did in 1904. The
pretty steady lettering of their prospects
as autumn approaches and republicans still
fail to get together makes for thoroughness
in their recognizing and Wgor In their
fight. Whatever the chances of having
a third party in this country, the chances
of again having two parties are much
better.

Here's a pretty mess. Up in the
Sixth Nebraska district, where two en-
inent nonpartisan demo-pops have
each captured a nomination for con-
gress, one on the democratic ticket
and one on the populist ticket, after
agreeing to an arbitration by the two
state committees as to which should
run, one accuses the other of breaking
faith and trying to steal a march by
seeking a recount to find out whether
an honest canvass would not show
that the people had already decided.
This is unquestionably rank outrage
to go behind the self-constituted
leaders and appeal to the voters them
selves. Let the people rule through
the bosses.

There is a possibility that it will not be
necessary to keep hard bread in stock for
issue to troops in the field. The trial Of
the field bakery at the maneuver camp at
Gettysburg resulted in most gratifying sue
cess and has smplified the issue Of bread
in the field so that in the future, according
to a report made by Captain Morton j.
Henry of the subsistence department who
was chief commissary OF the Gettysburg
camp. there should be no question of the
ability of the subsistence department to
always furnish soft bread. Captain Henry
further expresses the opinion that the sue
cess of the field bakery justfies the ex-
pectation that the hard bread may be prsc-
tiCally done away with and twelve ounces
of soft breat issued instead. The equip
ment of the new bakery, 1t Is pointed out,
ments can be done away with and II is be-
lieved that not more than nine ovens are
needed for a division at war strength 1t ia
recommended that the ovens be not issued
to the regiments, but handled by the sub
sistence department as a field bakery OF a
division. The bakers should be enlisted men
of the subsistence department or OF a gen
eral service corps, II being held that not az
satisfactory results are obtainable In the
field In time OF war with unframed en-
LISTED men or civilian bakers.

One of the important subjects of interest
to the army which President Taft will
shortly consider is the appointment of three
brigadier generals to fill vacancies caused
by the retirement of Brigadier General
Walter Howe on December 81 1910; Major
General Duval, January 13, 1911, and Brigd-
der General F. X. Ward on March 10, 1911.
1t is difficult to figure out just how these
appointments will be distributed, but 1t is
supposed that due regard will be paid to
proportions and that one of the new briga-
diers will be selected from the infantry, an
other from the cavalry, and the third from
the coast artillery corps. With the commits
sioning of Colonel M. NJ Macomb as a
brigader general, upon the retirement OF
General Myer In November, the field ar
tillery will have two of the fifteen briga-
diers, the other field artillery officer in
that grade being Brigadier General r. ID.
Potts. There are now seven brigadiers
who were derived from the infantry arm
Generals Myer, Hodges, Wotherspoon,
Brush, Smith, Maus and Hoyt. The APP
pointment of Colonel Macomb reduces the
proportion, which will probably be restored
when vacancy occurs by virtue of the
retrements of Generals Howe, Duval and
Ward.

WILD ALFALFA PROVES
GREAT DRY LAND FORAGE

Spokane. Wash. Experienced
farmers in Spokane county believe
that the discovery of wild alfalfa,
known to Botanists as "medicaga fall
cata" in Bonner county, Idaho, by
W. II. Heideman, superintendent Of
the sub-experiment station, conduct
ed by the United States government
at Clagstone, Idaho, will solve the
problem of dry land torage crops. The
plant. which thrives in arid districts,
where others die from heat and lack
of moisture, is similar to tame alfal-
fa The blossom is a pinkish white
and resembles the plant brought to
this country from Russia by Profess
sor Hanson of South Dakota, who
was sent abroad by the government
to find a plant adapted 10 semi-arid
districts. The pods are the same size
and shape as those of tame alfalfa.
Mr.. Heideman found the plants in
the Hoodoo valley formerly given
over to placer gold miners, in a spot
where there is no chance for even
nature to sub-irrigate plant life and
where all vegetation is practically
dead. Professor Hedeman has sent
specimens Of the plant to prominent
botansts for examination and identi-
fication. Experts say the plant has
been searched for all over the world
the last ten years.
