The Merging of All MethO.

MERGE" said DIR. Joshua w. Herring
Saturday. DR.. Herring is one of the lead
ing layman in the Methodist Protestant
Church and has frequently presided over
its conferences. In addition to his
prominence in religious activity, DR..
Herring is prominent in public life. He
has served as State Senator, represent
ing Carroll County. He has three times
been elected State Comptroller and is
now member of the Public Service
Commission, to which he was recently
transferred from the comptrollership
by Governor Crothers. He is also prom
inent as a banker. His opinion. there
fore. carries great weight.
Commissioners have been appointed
by the several branches of Methodism
to consider their merging into one body, "
continued DR.. Herring, land they are
now at work on the several problems
involved. The greatest obstacle encoun-
tered is in the differences which exist
between the Northern and Southern
churches. These differences are relics
of the war between the states, and it
seems to me that. after a lapse of near
ly half century since the war. the
feeling engendered by it can be over
come. There is also some apprehension
that the union may result in the election
of bishops and these bishops might make
the race question acute.
1.-The opinion is, however. becoming
more and more general that the pro-
posed amalgamation of all the Metho-
dist churches win be accomplished in

immediate funds did not hesitate to
mortgage their homes for the wage

ciety ~suffragettes have manifested in
their shirtwaist crusade as fine an ex-
ample of unselhsh devotion as this
country has ever witnessed, whatever
we may think of the merits of the dis
pute.
We behold women Of refinement for
saking luxury to accompany the
strikers through the hostilities of the
campaign, involving unhappy expert
ences with the police on the street and
unsavory associations in court and
cell. Instead of faltering, their 10y
atty has grown more intense, and they
are now planning to establish manu-
factories of their own in case the en-
ployers hold out much longer. To
those who have been prone to discuss
differences in class, the ease is con
siderable of an object lesson, and If
the women win this fight it may be
taken to indicate their ability to pro-
mote such a movement toward success
whenever they have a good cause.

WHY Confidential "

The ants down at Lincoln, who are
laying plans for an onslaught on the
Taft administration in the guise OF in
surgency, are asking republicans who
sympathize with them to send in their
names and add this postscript to the
invitation, "If you desire, this informa-
ton will be treated as confidential
!. Why CONFIDENTIAL" Every Ne
braska republican has a perfect right
TO line I'D on any side of the political
fence he chooses. He may be just a
plain, unprefixed republican" support
ing the republican policies and repub-
lican administration; he may be a re
dictionary" hitched up with the Cannon
bunch; he may be an ''insurgent' try
ing to upset things generally, or he
NAV ioin the democrats and fight the
republicans with whom he was
formerly associated, But whichever
course he may decide to pursue he
should have such reasons as to justify
himself in his own mind and no reason
IN hide under cover or mask behind
some name to conceal his identity.
The democrats are always finding
nonymou republicans p%urporting to
furnish ammunition for use against re-
nublican battlements, but in nine cases
out of ten these ~personages are simply
hgments of democratic imagination
Secret oath-bound political societies

Conquest of the Air.

Customary though it is for the
ready American jest to be turned
against the self -exploitation involved
in such an enterprise as the aviation
meet at Los Angeles, the public
spirited will be ready to acknowledge
that national progress owes that city
a debt of gratitude for so successfully
conducting an event which cannot but
arouse general enthusiasm for the new
est wonder of mans genius, flight
through the air. Accomplishments of
the Wrights and others have hitherto
been so distinctively local or so
merged with other features of celebra-
tions that our attitude toward aviation
has been somewhat distant, but now
that worlds records are being shat
tered over American soil in an interna-
tional contest that we know the eyes
of other nations are eagerly scanning,
we realize with more fervor the mar
velous progress Of mans conquest of
the air.
The achievements at Los Angeles
have been nothing short of astonish.

Another Billboard Program.

Restriction and repression of the
billboard nuisance is a live topic in
nearly every American city. The quest
of effective means of abatement make
interesting to all what is being done in
any city which takes advance ground.
Describing the efforts of Cincinnati, a
writer in THE American City outlines
this billboard program:
1. We limit billboards to noncombustible
material within fire limits, that is to say,
to metal.
2. We restrict their height to twelve feet.
3. We require twenty-four inches open
space at the bottom, two feet between ad-
jacent ~billboards and six feet between the
billboard and adjacent structure or lot line.
4. We require that no matter may be de-
picted which is licentious or obscene, or
! depicting the commission Of any crime,
and that all matter must be inspected by
the superintendent of police, and that no
billposter shall post matter without per-
mission of the owner of the board.
s. We require that no such sign or bill
board shall be erected on or facing any
public park, square, municipal, county or
federal building.
6. We make each separate regulation a
separate ordinance, each independent of
the other, and should any one be found to
be invalid the others will not thereby be
jeopardized.
This program seems to be we'll di
rected, but should include the restric'
ton imposed in Chicago, already re
ferred to by The Bee, by which written
consent of the majority Of the property
owners in the same block is %prerequis
tie to the erection of the billboard
where it is Objectionable to the neigh
bors. 1t seems to us that Omaha II
still very backward in the methods re
sorted to against the billboard
nuisance.

PERSONAL NOTES.

There are nearly fifty banks in the
United States owned and controlled by
negroes, and the New York Age says that
others are being established at the rate Of
one a month.
1t is intimated from Washington, that
Senator Root is to be the next American
recipient OF a Nobel prize, granted for the
same reason as vas the award to Mr..
Roosevelt, on the ground of his service in
the cause OF International peace.
Mrs. Kady c. wi is the only regu-
larry enlisted woman in the United States.
She Joined the Rifle Guards Of Providence,
r. l., by a special permit from Governor
Sprague, and, with her husband, went to
the front in 1861. Both husband and wife
were in the battle of Bull Run and Mrs.
Brownell was wounded.
MI. James B. Reynolds has not been as
prominent as an expert" investigator
Under President Taft as he was under the
Roosevelt administration but he finally
has returned to the pursuit Of evil and,
as Mr.. Rockefeller, jr.'s, aid in exposing
the White Slave traffic in New York, will
once more have al opportunity to be the
modern knight. Grant.
Miss Theodore j. Franksen, of Chicago,
totally blind since she was s years old, a
student at the University of Chicago, was
elected to the Phi Beta Kappa society, an
honor conferred by the university for high
scholarship. The announcement was made
at the recent convocation, at the same time
that the title of Associate in Literature
was awarded to Miss Franksen.
Newspaper advertising is depended upon
by Edward Reilly, chief of police of ELL
wood City, Lawrence county, to keep young
children off the streets because the coun-
Gil refuses to pass a curfew law or ordi-
nance. Chief Reilly has instructed his
police to AXE the names Of all the children
out late at night. He will then publish
these daily to shame parents into keeping
the children in the house at night.

Administration of Accomplishment

huHlulsbEhLlOu OI
Even those newspapers most
strongly opposed to the administration
Of President Taft are free 20 admit his
unqualified patriotism, the latest ex-
preston of which is in his avowed de-
termination to make his an admins
tration of accomplishment. To this
end he is entitled to the fullest sup
port Of every loyal republican member
Of congress-, for the legislative program
he has outlined is built upon the plat
form pledges of the campaign which
also carried the representatives TO the
capitol. Honest men devoted to the
same ideals may have honest differ
ences Of opinion about matters of de-
tail, and the executive has shown the
utmost disposition to withhold his
hands from the disputes in the routine
workings of the legislative body.
While it is true that he has sought,
as was his right, to effect a cohering
Of the forces which must be counted
on to forward his policies, still he has
made 1t clear hat his single purpose
is the contamination of the reforms
which he has st~eadfastly advocated, un-
affected by any personal or factional
preferences.
The ascribing of other motives to
the president has been so promptly
and emphatically disavowed that no
one will question the sincerity of his
avowed aim, so far as influencing re
publican representatives is concerned,
to be to remind them of their duty to
their party promises. The personality
of the speaker, for example, has moth
ing to do with the question of admin
~istrative program. Speakers come and
&c, and it Is not for the
members to have differences with that
guiding head of the house, as witness
the stormy days Of Gear Reed, yet
a congressman may have a well-meant
quarrel with the rulership or the rules
and still be faithful to his party's poll
cies.
From the opening day of congress
President Taft has consistently pur-
sued a course of non-interference to.
ward the customary differences among
party men except to insure party
solidarity behind the measures to
which the parry stands committed. He
has already presented several of the ex
pected administration policies in con
crete form, and is about to present
others. These, coming squarely before
congress, the people expect to see en-
acted by the republican membership
chosen by the people for the very pur
pose Of helping the president make his
administration one Of real accomplish
ment.

Field for Young Men.

The readiness with which the presi-
lent finds a man competent to hll the
exceptional post of national forester
calls attention to the fact that enter
prising American youth have been
quick to foresee the possibilities in this
branch of service. Only OF late years
has the field of forestry been opened
M to the vision Of our boys, yet from
the west they have been tiocking to
the schools c%ultivating this study, and
ultimately to Europe, where the per-
lection of forestry methods was first
accomplished, in sufficient numbers to
recruit the government service with
accomplished and, in many cases, ex-
pert intelligence.
Forestry calls for robust bodies and
alert. skilled minds. 1t Is IN attractive
and a gratifying field, remunerative
not only in a pecuniary way, but also
in health, spirits and the satisfying
sense of permanent good accomplished
for the human race. Under the gov
ernment's fostering care a we'll
equipped force Of youthful foresters
has been developed, and 1t should be a
matter of national pride that we have
already in so recent a field equipped
ourselves with abundant captains OF
conservation.

w ashington Life
Rome Interesting Phases
and Conditions Observed
at che Mation'a Capitol.

Except on special occasions, the men and
women who sit In the visitors gallery in
the house and senate are "~standpatters'' In
their regularity. Casual visitors TO Wash
ington do not stay long in the galleries,
but the regulars are very patient. They do
not care whether the speakers are talking
about appropriation or the dattos OF the
Philippines. No matter what is going on
the regulars stick to the job. THE cause
OF this u~nflagging interest" explains the
Washington Post, lis due to a variant Of
the instinct that makes some young men
and women long for a stage career. Just
as these young people cluster about the
stage door, SO the regulars brood over con-
gress. Just as the regulars who are in
constant attendance at murder trials-and
this is a well known species-take sides
with either the prosecuting or defending at
torney, 80 the regulars at congress take
sides with the statesmen who engage in de-
bates, even though they may not know
exactly what the debate Is about. Women
as well as men are among the regulars at
congress Many OF the women formerly
worked in the departments and take a
real interest In public affairs. 1t might be
thought that they would grow tired OF the
monotony of daily attendance, but they
seem, on the contrary, to relish the game
more and more each day"

WEAVER OF IOWA.
General james D.. as a "DiVine
Healer"
Brooklyn Eagle.

Brooklyn Eagle.
The news that General James b. Weaver
Of Iowa, at the age Of 70. has decided to
give up politics and devote the remainder
of his life to a crusade in behalf of divine
healing, has a certain amount Of interest
for students OF American politics, as we'll
as for students of psychology.
James B. Weaver entered the union
army almost at the beginning Of the civil
war. Without any influence, as a brave
and efficient soldier, he rose from the
rank Of private to that of briEadier general.
He was elected to various local offices in
Iowa. He became a member OF congress.
When the greenbaok or rag baby craze
was at it's height he was the greenback
party's candidate for president Of the
United states against Garfield and Han
cock. He polled SOS,57s votes. Twelve years
afterward, in 1892, he was the candidate
Of the peoples party, and his vote was L.
Ol OIL He carried four states-Kansas,
Colorado, Idaho and Nevada-and got one
electoral vote each from North Dakota
and Oregon. His whole electoral vote was

was a vast surprise to the politicians. That
it had a tremendous influence in producing
