John G. Calhoun.

The latest American to be honored
within our national hall of fame is
the South Carolina statesman, John
@. Calhoun. Born during the closing
days Of the revolutionary war, of the
rugged stock of Scotch H~ighlsnders,
an American in heart and a giant in
ability, he was of the fiber that made
our independence possible. Living in
the south, amidst customs, traditions
and activities fostering extreme ideas
of states rights, his motives and opin-
ions we're naturally biased. But,
though a champion of the states rights
doctrine, he stands among u ma
TONS great men in ability and SINGER
ity of endeavor.
Two great figures in American his
tory tower above even the presidents
Of u nation during their time, Dan
lei Webster and John G. Calhoun.
Champions in the conflict of those
earlier years, they fought the cause of
the north and the south with efforts
so gigantic as to dwarf contemporane-
Gus events. They embodied the spirit
of those years and, although Calhoun
lost, it was from the weakness of the
cause and o from inferiority of abil-
ity. Realizing his defeat his heart
throbbed with fear for the people of
the south and as he closed his eyes in
the stupor preceding death he was
heard to murmur THE South! The
poor South! God knows what will
become of her."
In these days of peace and quiet
when sectional animosities are dying
out we can see with a clearer vision
that Calhoun, the southern statesman,
was patriotic even when mistaken. We
can acknowledge his ability, his cour.
age and his conscientious devotion ia
his principles. He was of a type OF
American manhood deserving to rank
with the others given representation
in the national capitol, where the
greatest efforts of his life were made
A fitting tribute to him as a man and
a statesman was delivered by Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts,, Of the web
ster succession" in the senate when
the statue was received. Thus with
touch of sentiment, deeply impressive
the successor to his giant New England
antagonist pronounced the eulogy tc
the genius n craftsmanship of John
c.. Calhoun of South Carolina.

MagnunimOus Mack and Murphy.

Chairman Mack and Boss Murphy
have cracked the best political joke Of
the a in their assurance to the
public that they will not try to freeze
Bryan out Of the democratic party.
Nothing but the spirit Of altruism
could prompt such magnanimous
action, Anyone can picture Mr. Bryan
as he finally receives this bit of be-
lated news that means so much to his
future as the quadrennial candidate Of
his party for the presidency; see him
relapse from a state of tense ex-
p~ectancy into one of calm and peace
full repose and consolation.
Before turning from the humor Of
this situation, 1t should be observed
that with all their charitable impulse,
Norman e. Mack and Charles f. Muir
ply decided not to freeze Mr.. Bryan
out Of the party only after they had
become satisfied that he would not at
tempt the leadership of the party
again, nor essay to run for president
in 1912. If Mack and Murphy believe
this, then, Of course, it would be fool
ish for them to antagonize Mr.. Bryan
any further by pretending to read him
out Of the party. They would simply
be wasting ammunition that they will
need for other purposes and disrupt
ing their ranks even more than they
are disrupted already. Divested of his
relentless ambition and shorn Of his
power, Mr.. Bryan would be no more
Objectionable to them in the demo
cratic party than any other private in
dividual. Subdued and surrendered,
he might make a very agreeable mem
Der of their organization. And 1t is
only after viewing the matter from
this standpoint that one can appreciate
the magnificent concession Brothers
Mack and Murphy have made.
But more seriously, those who know
Mr.. Bryan best will be slow to believe
that he has forsworn his political am.
bition or decided to relinquish the
leadership of his party. Every move
he has made since his last defeat indi
Gates that he is only realigning his
forces for a new attack and strength.

Canada and the Tariff.

Negotiations between the United
States and Canada over tariff conces-
sions continue with Canada appar-
emily in an. obstinate mood. Canada
refuses to concede to US even privi-
leges it accords to France and Ger
many and maintains this course with
out the least signs of yielding. Can
ada has had the big end of the tariff
relations ever since the year 1890.
The discrimination enjoyed by Eng
land has made but little diffetence
and American exports to Canadian
markets have continued to exceed
them all.
Canada has been known even to
take more than she is entitled to un-
der u trade agreements. Her seal
ers have killed our seals, her railroads
have crossed and recrossed our bound
airy line, paying but slight attention
to the orders from the Interstate Com
merce commission and her shippers
have had the use Of our ports and free
shipment Of goods across our frontier.
Some of these privileges Canadian
shippers can not we'll get along with.
out and she before losing them would
make real concessions.
BY the end of this month the maxi
mum rate of our new tariff on Can.
adian goods, shipped into the United
States, will go into effect unless lifted
by presidential proclamation, The
added tariff duties will be calculated tC
put pressure on our northern neigh
Dor If left to take their course, bur
while this is going on a bitter feeling
would be aroused between the two
countries, which neither can afford t.
incite. 1t behooves us to use all posi-
Bile diplomacy to avoid friction anC
maintain friendly intercourse. Canadt
has no right to ask of us more thai
she asks Of European nations, but, OF
the other hand, we cannot afford to b,
unreasonable nor at the same time t
permit Canada to force a one-sided ex
change.

Military and Public Highways.

The recent debate in congress on
the use of convict labor to construct
the proposed military road between
Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley, in
Kansas, has resolved itself into a dis
cussion of the value of rockbed high
ways for public traffic. The advisable
ity and d~esirability of good roads
seems to have taken precedence in
this particular measure. Good roads
have proved to be an economic value
to the country and it only remains to
get them. All the congressman, APP
~parently, favor rockbed highways and
when they have been persuaded that
convict labor for road making is also
advisable they will become the most
ardent supporters of a nationwide
good roads movement.
Figures are quoted to demonstrate
that it costs just half as much to mar
ket produce over macadam roads as
il does over clay roads, such as are
quite common throughout this coun-
I NIIs huAORNoA NOhhNA = AaNO ASA6
recognized this; in fact, long before
even Roman times the rock road was
common and convicts and prisoners
were employed in their construction.
With the advance of civilization and
its accompanying progress in the de-
velopment Of transportation facilities
the overland route had fallen into dis
use TO a very great extent. The auto
mobile. however, has emphasized
again the value of the road both as a
means Of travel and as a means OF
transportation and there is a very
srong likelihood of this emphasis ex
tending TO the military DAD as well
"a to the public highway.
AS an economic factor in our coun.
try's affairs good solid roadbeds are
more important than most people real.

Shamrocks



The drums loud roll, the clarion's blare
The sidewalks lined with c~olleens fair,
There's Gaelic music in the air
It's Patrick's Day In the mOrnin'.
The shamrock on each coat Is seen
In all It's soft, perennial green,
The years can't din It's verdRnt sheen
IT'S Patrick's Day In the mornin',
Their thoughts today are wandering free
Through dear old Erin DER the sea,
Who bravely waits, lone, silently,
The sun on Freedoms mornin'.
The gallant men who fought and bled
To place the green above the red
oh, not in vain their blood was she'd
lis Patrick's Day in the mornin'.
Soft strains Of music fill the air,
We hear "Killarney's Lakes So Fair"
The shan Van Vocht' and sweet Adalre'
It's Patrick's Day In the mornin',
The boys from Cork 70 Donegal
Some, as the ga~llowglasses, tall
March past mid ringing cheers for all
On Patrick's Day in the mornin'.
Good fellowship shines forth today
As sparkling as the shamrock sprayt
We pledge the loved ones far away
On Patrlck's Day In the mornin'.
Here's to old Erin's verdant isle,
God guard her from the traitors vile,
May freedom DER her valleys smile

Citizenship Once More.

The Lincoln Journal persists in the
contention that we have "noncitizen"
voters and that The Bee is indulging
in verbal bubbles when 1t says that
the right to vote in Nebraska on So
called FIRST papers is not conferred
on "noncitizens." 7
The best authority on citizenship
is the United States supreme court
and nowhere has that court gone into
that subject more in detail than in the
famous Boyd-Thayer case which went
up from Nebraska. In the opinion
rendered the court held that Governor
Boyd was entitled to his seat because,
as a citizen of Nebraska at the time
of its admission into the union, he
thereby became a citizen of the United
States, irrespective Of the final steps
of his fathers naturalization. In that
case the court, among other things,
quotes Chief Justice fancy as saying:
We must not confound the rights of
citizenship which a state may confer within
its own limits and the rights of citizenship
as a member of the union. II does not by
any means follow, because he has all the
rights and privileges Of a citizen of a
state, that he must be a citizen OF the
United States. He may have all the rights
and privileges of the citizen of a state and
yet not be entitled to the rights and
privileges of a citizen in any other state.
The court also there quotes with APP
prevail the opinion in the Slaughter
house cases, which held that the first
clause in the fourteenth amendment
recognized the distinction between
citizenship of a state and citizenship
of the United States.
No one will take issue with the
Journal in it's assertion that the right
to vote is not a necessary part of the
right of citizenship. But in Nebraska,
as in most states, the right to vote is
confined to citizens, and we have no
'noncitizen" voters.

Spring in Ireland.

Sweet spring, you are an Irish lass,
And wearing of the green,
Your jeweled feet run DER the grass
n gems by all are seen:
Rare diamonds and emeralds
You leave behind, my queen;
The Seventeenth of March will come
With wearing OF the green.
Thrice welcome, darling of the year.,
Sweet colleen of the green.
The hearts Of Irishmen you'll cheer
st. Patrick's Day, l ween
Each son of Erin loves you
They hail you as their queen,
And all the world is happier
With wearing of the green.
For the winter days are over
And we tread h breathing sod,
Irish soldier, Irish lover,
OF his country and his God.
To a martial ar these verses
AS the colors bright are seen.
The colors of old Ireland
That's the wearing OF the green.

ANOTHER ROOSEVELT NOW.
The Mighty Hunter as He Emerges
from the Jungle.


from the Jungle
Cleveland Leader.
The most famous hunter that ever shot
big game at the head waters Of the Nile
is quoted al saying that he is ready to
lay down his rifle for good and all. He
declares that he has hunted enough. Now
he is ready to quit.
Men often speak that way about a favor
ite sport when they rave INDUCED in it
long and without stint, only to change
do the same thing FITS resolutions have
weight, and he is the master OF his W
ways, but he is very human.
However this may be, there is another
Roosevelt for the country and the world to
watch now. He is out of the jungles.
This return to civilization will bring to
the front the Roosevelt who is a student
Of men and events, a voracious reader Of
history, an ardent grappler with hard prob
lens Of national and civic life, a man Of
wide outlook upon the world and deep
interest in all that pertains to the larger
affairs of humanity,
Americans are going to be very proud
Of their former president when they read
Of the honors Europe will shower upon him
and the speeches he will make and the
incisive comments he will volunteer, now
and then, upon matters Of wide Importance
and local interest. They are going to real
ize, more than ever before, the many-sided
bigness OF the man.
1t is better than hunting, better than the
studies Of a 'faunal naturalist" 1t will
place Theodore Roosevelt before the world
at his best, which is a best hard to better.
