Everyone deeply respects
A person who is guided
BY cool judgment
And common sense.
If one finds that habits
Of food or drink are producing
Eints Of disease, he should
Heed Natures warnings and
Adjust his diet to keep the
Human machinery in order.
One doesn't always know
Where to commence
To correct a diet,
But one thing to stop is coffee,
An alluring, insidious enemy
That "Sings one to sleep and
then knifes him"
The slow but sure effect of
Caffeine-the active drug in
Coffee-on the heart, finally
Produces weak pulse and a
Deranged, nervous system
Which grows slowly but
Steadily more pronounced
And ends in some
Fixed organic disease,
Unless the cause be removed.

Building Up One West.

This movement OF transporting peo-
pie to the far new west" can have
nothing but the, best influence upon
the states OF the Missouri valley No
alarm need be occasioned as to that
II people want to buy land in the
states OF the Rockies or Pacific coast,
they are going to do it and II they
want to go there to live they cannot
easily be prevented. And there are
ample opportunities to Justify them.
But the middle west has nothing to
fear, no matter how great this move
ment may become. II is going to
more than hold its own and it is going
TO advance Just as rapidly as the coun-
try further on and profit instead of
lose by this tendency Of migration.
The middle west needs greater outlet
for it's trade and commerce and the
multiplication OF settlers and new
homes in the far west will help to
meet those needs. The middle west
also has markets that can handle
greater volume of products than they
are doing and the opening up of this
territory out west to cultivation will
tend to give us the additional produce
we are seeking.
SO we find ready compensation in
this system. But beside that this
movement Of people from the eastern
states toward the west is going to re-
suit in the upbuilding of the middle
vests population also. 1t has been
doing it for fifty years and there is
no reason to suppose that it is going
to work any differently in the next
fifty. Where the family from Ohio
moves to Idaho or California, the
family from New York or Massachu-
sets may move to Nebraska, Iowa or
Kansas. What we are interested in is
getting people to move west We
need not worry about what locations
they select. No state and no section
has yet or ever will have a monopoly
on the influx. We are engaged in
building one country, a vast empire
of wealth out here in the west and
one part cannot be benefited without
the other parts deriving a reflex ad-
vantage from It

Former Attorney General Constan-
tine J. Smyth volunteers an extremely
fine spun and jesuitical defense of
Congressman Hitchcock for borrowing
state funds from a defaulting repub-
lican state treasurer and refusing to
pay them back because the note out
lawed by the statute of limitations
while his benefactor was in the peni-
Tertiary.
Mr.. Smyth had much to do with the
prosecutions and civil suits growing
out of the BARLEY ENLIGHTENMENT and
he was much better for the pTosecu-
tion than he is now for the defense.
Mr.. Smyth knows now, if he did not
know then, why Mr.. Hitchcock's
World-Herald tried at every turn to
block his efforts to put BARLEY in the
penitentiary and to recover the stolen
money for the state.
Mr.. Smyth knows now, IL he did not
know then, that all those BARLEY edi-
torials in the World-Herald were in
splred by the borrowed state FUNDS in
Mr.. Hitchcocks pocket.
Mr.. Smyth knows now, If he did not
know then, that those democratic
apologies for the republican embezzler
were as much Of a sell-out as was the
espousal by Mr.. Hitchcock and his
World-Herald, about the same time, of
the republican A. P. As, secretly
sworn to put all Roman Catholics out
Of office.
Mr.. Smyth knows now, if he did not
know then, where some more Of the
stolen money is, and if he were still
attorney general he would doubtless
institute suit to make MIR. Hitchcock

STORY OF THE APPLE.


w d. Nesbit in Chicago Post.
A farmer picked this apple in his orchard
And pu! Il in a barrel with some others
OF his best;
Because they were so splendid he declared
the price must climb,
And so he raised his figures on that barrel
by dime.
The man who bought that barrel stuck
a label on the top,
Then told the inteTviewers Of shortage
in the crop;
And when he came to sell it to a buyer on
the floor
He added on his profit and a half a dollar
more.
The man who shipped that barrel stuck
his label on II, too,
And talked OF early freezes and the dam
age that they do;
The man TO whom he shipped II said the
growers price was high
And raised the price two dollars more than
in the days gone by.
The man who stored that barrel told OF
shortage In the pick,
OF scale and other pests that make the
apple orchards sick;
And ne put on five dollars to the cumulat-
i've price
And so a went each handler taking out
his little slice.
Oh when you eat this apple, may il fiji
you with delight
To know that some one profits on eaCh
nlbble and each bite,
And, oh be glad you do not live so very
far away
From where the apple started for think
what you'd have 10 pay!

ABOLISH THE FRANK.
Free Postal Privilege a Gross Public

Washington HeraId.

Washington Herald.
Postmaster General Frank NJ Hitchcock.
who has declared that he is going to wipe
out the annual deficit in postal rev
enues, and among other things, hopes to
establish 1-cent domestic postage. now
proposes to recommend to congress the
abolition OF the frank He does not hope
to do away with the Thanking privilege,
but proposes change in form.
There can be no doubt that the frank
ing privilege has been most seriously
abused. 1t is not too much to say that IT
has been used to defraud the government
out Of great deal OF money, and the
worst OF it is that everyone who receives
an Improperly franked package or letter
realizes that the government is being de-
frauded
We know-it is a matter OF common
knOwedge-that under the present system
the frank has been diverted from the pur-
poses for which It was originally designed
We have had congressman sending type
writer's through the mails under their
frank; others have used the frank to send
out their laundry to send Christmas pres
ents to their friends. to say nothing Of the
tons upon tons of printed speeches-pItnted
free through special privilege at the gov
eminent printing office, and which, while
supposedly quasi-public documents, are, in
effect, nothing but campaign material dis
semiuated abroad for the members private
behOOf and emOlument. All this should be
stopped. 1t is petty dishonesty unworthy
OF men elected to legislate for the nation
1t is proposed by Postmaster General
| Hitchcock to stop the issuing of franks
and TO issue In lieu thereof free stamps
to the members OF congress This, we be-
&c
should be OF special issue dfferentiatlng
them from the stamps used by the gem
eral public, and the POstOffice department
should be required to keep a ledger ac-
count with each Individual member of
congress and with all government officials

business purposes, showing just how many
Of these free stamps are requitlsioned

Republican labor Legislation.

Laboring men in all classes should
take vital interest in the present
congressional campaign. Upon the
political complexion of the next con-
gress they have much at stake. Leg
islation in their behalf is pending
which will not be completed il the
republicans lose control of either
house, for the best that could then be
hoped for would be a deadlock. Two
of the important issues, begun under
the Taft administration, that are to
be brought to fruition in the next
congress are further ssrety appliance
legislation and the definite fixing Of
a basis for workmen's compensation
in case of bodily injury
The republican party came into ex-
istence in response to a demand Of
larger liberty for the masses and
greater opportunities for those who
toiled for daily wages. From its in
ception it has been the distinct friend
Of labor II first showed that friend
ship by emancipating the American
slave and destroying the institution
which throttled free industrialism. 1t
next abolished convict labor. a per-
nicious system which partially grew
out of slavery. Since then It has
given further protection to American
labor by excluding the cooHe from the
orient doing away with slavery in the
Philippines and minimizing the dis
advantages OF competition with cheap
labor OF all foreign countries. Its
whole system of legislation and ad-
ministrative government has brought
about conditions in which the work
man is better paid and better kept
and has better opportunities than the
workmen Of this or any land ever en-
joyed
In the last congress it did much for
labor in the enactment OF a law estab-

Registration.

Today is the last day for regis
tration of voters for the coming cleo
ton, and no voter who shall have
failed to appear personally before the
registrars of his voting district and
have his name properly enrolled on
the registration books will be entitled
to receive ballot at the polls.
The registration law is plain and
ignorance of the law does not excuse
failure to comply with It. No regis
tration of previous years holds good,
but. on the contrary, this years regis
tration books are altogether new and
complete in themselves. Registrars
will sit from o'clock in the morning
until 9 o'clock at night in the respec-
tive polling places of the various Vot-
ing districts. 1t devolves upon every
legal voter in Omaha and South
Omaha to see to it that this prelim-
mary step to voting is taken
The Bee has more than once called
attention to the cumbersome and bur
densome requirements of our Ne
braska registration law. The law
ought to be changed so as to permit
of a permanent registration list sub
ject to protest, and thus make it un-
necessary for voters to re-register so
long as they continue to reside in the
same place. We hope the law will be
so amended by the coming legislature
but in the interval there is only one
way to qualify to vote and that is to
register anew for every election.

Luxury and Life.

DR. Mary Noble, the missionary
from India. speaks of IAN appalling
sense OF luxury" which impressed her
as she arrived in the United States
from the orient. She felt it, she says,
when she stepped on an American
steamship in England and when she
entered a Pullman car at New York
and she has observed it all along the
line of life in the United States and
comments rather chidingly upon it.
What DIR. Noble is reproving us
for of course, is the element of need
less luxury, the lack of economy in
our living. She certainly would not
wish her people to restrict their lines
of life to the limit of doing without
those comforts and even luxuries they
have earned by diligence and toll and
which form the essential groundwork
of modern life today. We in America
undoubtedly live better than do the
people in India, or any of the oriental
countries and of course, the contrast
must be striking to one just coming
from those lands. But our present
standards of living are the logical re-
suits of constant progress that be-
gan when the foundations of this re-
public were laid and, while there may
be ample room for economy and fru-
| gality, there is no such thing as retro
| erosion; we are not going back to
the standards which our ancestors
| lived by. They would no more meet
our demands than our ways would
have suited our fathers. OF course,
Dr. Noble does not propose anything
of this sort She only believes that
we go in too much for luxury when
We might be putting the money spent
for that into missions
/ While we are putting vast sums
into luxuries every year, we are like
wise putting vast sums into missions,
more vast than ever before and we
are doing it on a systematic basis that
Is bringing wonderful results. The
fact is the American people are ope-
/ rating entirely on a vast system to-
day. II is not so much a matter of
readjusting ourselves to lesser and
former conditions, as it is to adjust
ourselves to larger and new customs
so nicely that we can observe them.
