Wisdom Is Doubted.
1t has been said that was carrying
self abnegation to an extreme, that a
queen of England had no business in
an organ loft and that King George
should have insisted on his wife taking
a position Of greater prominence.
Bucking ham palace, the disputed res
idence, has been described as the shah
best and most unattractive royal pal
ace in all Europe. 1t is dismal,
smoke begrimed building, and the
front it presents to the public has
about as much architectural beauty as
a Massachusetts shoe factory.
Americans who get their first glimpse
of European royal palace in London

w the right, which every other
Englishman is supposed to
possess, of running his own domes-

he found himself at once in domestic

to private individual, but that to a
king must have been exasperating.
This was the strange behavior Of his

King Is Embarrassed.
1t was a delicate position for King
George, devoted to his grief stricken
mother and equally devoted to his
wife and unable to act in the matter
as another man in the land might act,
for the reason that not only court Ell
quette governed him, but that the
eyes of the empire were watching him.

palace. The latest union railroad sta
ton in their home town usually is far
handsomer architecturally and better
adapted to it's purpose than Bucking-
ham palace is to it's. Eighty-two years
ago the Duke of Wellington declared
that Buckingham palace wasn't fit to
lodge the sovereign Of England. The
dukes criticism still holds good
There is some newspaper talk that
the beginning Of new reign ought to
see the beginning of new palace, but
it is highly improbable that the govern
ment, especially Iiberal-Radical gov
eminent such as is now in power, will
see its way to make an appropriation
for new palace. If the government
won't appropriate money to build a
new palace it may be depended upon
that King George and his frugal con-
sort won't provide the money from
their private purse.
Real Facade Looks Better.
The front of the palace which Amer
lean visitors see is not really the front,
but the rear. The true facade Of the
palace is not visible to the public. 1t
is fair example of Georgian architec-
ture. which some people think is hid
eous at its best. 1t faces the big pri-
vate gardens of the palace. looking
north toward Piccadilly
The side visible to the public was
patched on after the palace vas fin
ished. It is of stucco and badly needs
painting. The job of painting is too
big and too costly. and SO the slao.ie
begrimed palace remains Imprinted
and probably will remain Imprinted
until Queen Mary moves in and makes
a big kick in the right quarter.

COMMISSION TAKES ACTION
Suspends the Rate Advances Recently
Made by Railroads.

. =
Washington, July 14.-The inter-
state commerce commission has deter
mined to suspend recent general adj
vances made by the railways in their
freight rates The tariffs suspended,
in accordance with the policy decided
upon by the commission for the most
part are those recently filed by the
Western Trunk Line association and
by the carriers, although some Of the
tariffs against which questions were
raised were filed by individual roads
in other territories.
By arrangement with the president
and with the commission the railways
agreed to supplement their original
advanced tariffs, which were to have
become effective about July 1, with
the tariffs to become effective Au-
| gust 1.
This postponement of the effective
date Of the proposed rates was for the
purpose of enabling the commission
thoroughly to examine it's authority
under the new railroad law. The I'M
derstanding, at the time the agree
! ment was reached, was that such adj
vances as were general in character
and affected large interests should be
1 suspended pending an inquiry into the
reasonableness of the increases.
The vote taken by the commission
was rather on a line of policy to be
pursued by the body as to suspension
than upon specific tariffs. Now that
I the policy Of the commission has been
4 determined it will be automatically
4 applicable. in sense, to such tariffs
i as fall within it's purvieW.

Queen Mary.

dra, and the officials had the greatest
difficulty in keeping pace with her
many changes Of mind and in accom-
wishes as chief mourner
The poor lady, overwhelmed with
grief, hard of hearing, difficult to con-
vince and leaning heavily upon the adj
vice of her sister, the dowager empress
of Russia, who is not by any means
the greatest peacemaker in the world,
proved a sore trial to the earl marshal
and his colleagues, upon whom de-
volyed the responsibility for devising
and carrying out the funeral program.
Queen Mother Central Figure.
The queen mother felt that the fu-
neral was not King Edwards alone;
that it was practically her own leave
taking of the people whom she has
charmed and endeared herself to for
nearly fifty years; that it was, at any
rate, the last public occasion on which
she could claim as a right the final ar
bitration of all the features and ar
engagements.
King George yielded to her inclina-
lions with extraordinary complaisance
and showed more flial anxiety to
obey her every whim. In doing so he
had to some extent to sacrifice his
wife. The queen mother being bent
on maintaining to the last all the priv
ileges Of her old position, it became
necessary for Queen Mary to retire
somewhat into the background.
Gossip has a good deal to say as to
the relations between the two queens,
which no doubt are not as cordial as
they might be. But, however that may
be, Queen Mary readily consented to

Two Isaak Waltons while fishing in
the White Salmon river, Washington,
for rainbow trout unexpectedly cap
tured game OF a different variety. Some
three miles up the river from where
the fishermen were casting their lines
in a box canyon, where the stream IS
very swift, logs were shooting by at a
rapid rate, and the sports also saw a
deer come floating down in apparently
an exhausted condition.
One Of the fishermen risked his life
by wading out and pulling the animal
ashore. One leg was found broken,
and the deer was put out OF its misery.

The Bankers, Meeting.

Omaha bids welcome to the bankers
of the state, who are just now assem-
bled here for their annual convention.
1t also congratulates the men who
make up that meeting on the very ex-
cellent showing they have been able
to make of their business The last
statement furnished by the comptrol-
Ter of the treasury has established that
there never was time in the history
of the state when the national banks
we're in a stronger and more satisfac-
tory condition. The deposits held, the
loans and discounts carried, the re-
serve in store and every other item in
the report afford substantial proof of
the excellent service that is being rem
dered and the solid footing on which
the business is transacted. And now
comes the report of Secretary Royse
of the State Banking board and shows
that the state banks are in a condition
quite as satisfactory as the national
banks.
The bankers may we'll plume them
selves on these facts, for they are war
rantable excuse for pride. Moreover,
they are the very best possible answer
to the allegations made two years ago
by TIE guaranty law. Instead of
money being frightened into hiding by
the failure OF banks to provide safety
for its use. it is bpsily engaged in its
normal function OF carrying on the
business of the state and earning rev.
enue for it's owners. The situation as
regards the banks could hardly be bet.

for this condition deserve all credit

War on tuberculosis.

Last year twenty-eient states gave
$4,OOO,OOO toward the campaign
against tuberculosis. This year al
ready $S.OOO,OOO has been appropri-
ated from all sources for the same
purpose Last year in seven states
new sanatoria were built and in six
old ones repaired, while today sana-
,toria are maintained in twenty-seven
states and the national government
has one each in New Mexico and
Arizona. These facts are taken from
a report compiled in the Medical
Record. They show up very well for
state governments, too, by the way.
The states in this case seem to be lead
ing in the work of CONGRATULATIONS
servation of human life.
Thus this war on the white plague
has not only taken tangible form, but
is producing vast results. Its greatest
achievement, doubtless, is in the line
of education. 1t has already taught
the people how to deal with the dis
ease, that it is durable and how to aid
in preventing it and how to combat
it after contracted. 1t. has taught
them that practical sanitation--ob-
serving the ordinary rules of good
health, taking plenty of fresh air,
wholesome food and rests the surest
remedy they can adopt.
But with all our progress we must
keep up this fight II we ever hope to
get the upper hand of a malady which
scientists say has had hold of the hui
man race since the early stages of
mankind. Such an insidious foe to
health can not be vanquished in a day
nor in a generation. 1t may be seri-
ously crippled in that time, but moth
ing short of eternal vigilance will ever
stamp II out completely. 1t is in.

lessness, such as 1t is dificult for q
people of any country to avoid. But
il we have made such commendablt
progress in so short a time, surely the
American people will not be conten
to relax their energies now.

Government Quietly at Work.

1t is the habit of the Taft admins
tration to work quietly, but work
Therefore it must not be surprising to
most people to learn that the govern
ment is engaged in more "trust-bust-
ing" today than it has ever been. Not
content with the various large sue
cesses it has achieved in REFRESHING
illegal conspiracies, the administra-
ton has its Department OF Justice at
work upon more cases just now than
ever and some very important results
are within reach.
This must be gratifying to those
who believe in the serious determine
ton of the government to outlaw
predatory combines, and It must be a
severe rebuke to those who have been
peddling the reports that no more
trust busting would be undertaken
until the Standard Oil case was of
hand. Apparently the president and
his Department of Justice have not
been able to understand why the
pending of this case in court should
stop or retard their progress in other
directions. 1t would naturally seem
that 1t should have precisely the oppo-
site effect. Results achieved in this
pivotal case should only serve to slim
ulate further effort.
It is probably true that the vigilance
of the government has finally con-
WINGED trust barons that it will not dc
for them to adhere to the old methods
of conspiring to restrain trade. and
now the government is starting out t.
teach them a similar lesson about
their so-called "gentlemen's agree

Some leading democratic papers
have suddenly become very solicitous
in behalf OF fair play toward President
Taft. so much so that they are sppre-
hensive lest his old friend and asso-
ciate, former President Roosevelt, inn
pose on him. so they are advising the
president to swat the colonel"
OF course, this disguised counsel is
too palpable to deceive anybody. In
this campaign. as in many past, the
hope Of the democracy lies in republic
can dissension, but II the democrats
do not see by now that their subtle
scheme is futile they must be obtuse
Taft and Roosevelt, the progressives,
not only typify the dominant element
in the republican party of today, but
the dominant element OF all its his
tory. The reactionaries have never
controlled this party, and it is useless
for the enemy to presume upon the
theory that it will do so in the present
campaign. 1t must be apparent to
anybody by now that the progressives
are in control and are going to remaiW
in control, and that TAFT and Roose-
welt stand shoulder to shoulder as the
leaders and embodiment of this whole
progressive movement, despite what a
few aggrieved politicians may do or
say
No amount of interested misrepre-
sentation can blind the eyes of the ma
jority of the people to this fact and
the opposition is but wasting time and
energy in making such an attemptN 1t
has itself chosen to set up at different
stages it's own DOGGY men, and every
time they have fallen fat and with
nothing but reflex action upon those
responsible for them. What could be
more expressive OF this than the re-
suit in the New York state convention
where these two progressives have
been found squarely together. belying
every effort and trick to make it ap-
pear otherwise?
