morning. The reason was ~twofold.
They wanted to see the departure of
the flotilla of steamers as it started
down the bay for Quarantine, and they
had hopes they would beat the police
to positions of vantage around the
stand of welcome. The latter was a
vain quest, for hundreds of bluecoats
cent space reserved for the reception
committee.
Il was a hurried embarkation of the
welcomers not only at the Battery,
but at more than hundred piers on
the Hudson and East rivers, for the
rendezvous was set for the NarrOWs,
connecting the upper and lower bays,
for $3.50 a. m. The sun was fast dis
Polling the morning mist and the light
glinted on gaily decorated craft Of
every description. Flags, bunting,
Teddy bears, G. o. P. elephants and
welcome signs were seen everywhere.
Greeted In the Bay.
The time of transferral of the Roose-
welt party had been tentatively fixed
for o'clock, and it was about half
an hour before that the huge Kaiserin
Auguste Victoria was seen threading
her way up the Ambrose channel, the
decks filed with passengers, who
waved greetings to the hundreds of
smaller craft that surrounded her.
AS the steamer passed the din of
welcome began. The guns of Fort
Wadsworth on the Staten Island side
of the Narrows doomed their greeting
and the artillery of Fort Hamilton. on
Long Island echoed noisily. Every
whistle Of the fotilla shrieked in ri.
valry as the steamer dropped anchor
off Quarantine. =7
The din was at it's height when the
Roosevelt party was espied on the up
per forward deck, the colonel boyishly
waving his hat to Collector William
Loeb and other friends on the revenue
cutter Androscoggin.
BY his side were Mrs. Roosevelt,
Mrs. Nicholas LongWorth, Miss Ethel
and Kermit Roosevelt and Secretary
Of the Navy Meyer. who met the

delegation to the state convention
to be held in St. Paul next Tuesday.
Polk and Clearwater counties have
also instructed their delegates to
sacrifice anything and everything to
bring about his nomination.
Returns from the Ninth Con-
gressional district show that Kaiser
will have the majority of the dele
gates instructed for him: Ind it is
conceded that many Of the unin-
structed will stand by him. His old
home county of Winona will give him
a strong delegation. Kaiser will
have nearly all of the 153 going
from the Ninth district and Winona
instructed for him, and the odd ones
make his force a powerful one.
The county convention also in
dorsed Senators Nelson aud Clapp
and demanded their retention in the
Senate. Appreciation was started of
the services of Congressman Steiner

No disturbing elements appeared
in the convention. County option

it. The organization of the assembly
was easily effected and the majorities

Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1910-12-08

Of the reforms, for Senator Clark is
one Of the most conspicuous ultra-re-
dictionaries ever i'm political life. He
was the direct descendant, the type
and the mould, all in one, of this
former era Of the open door in poll
tics. And this period came to its cli-
max in his state when he was elected
to the senate after that memorable
contest with his old-time rival, Mar
cus DAILY. Everything calculated to
make the wheels Of a political machine
run with faultless precision and alac-
rity was turned loose in Montana in
those days with prodigality unbounded.
In addition TO the Clark school Of
politics is the fact that he became
noted as an absentee member Of the
senate during his former term, just
as he is now and for years has been
noted as an absentee citizen of Mon
tana. He really resides in New York
and 1t would be travesty to send him
to the senate from Montana II is
such as this that forces the conviction
that the recent democratic victory was
a powerful triumph of bourbon poll
ticians.

George B. TEschuck.

The passing away of good man is
always a matter for regret.
Especially is this true in the case
of George B. Tzschuck Mr.. Tzschuck
was long identified with the growing
interests of Omaha In an unobtrusive
but effective way. AS treasurer of
The Bee Publishing company for more
than thirty years he rendered a service
to this paper, and through it to the
public, that is beyond computation.
He had many interests outside of the
publishing Office in which he spent the
greater part of his life and his bust
ness and social relations were such as
testify elOquently to the high charac-
ter of the man. Universally esteemed
and we'll beloved by his associates,
this quiet man will be missed far more
than one of greater show and less in
fiuence. His life was a fine example
of effective industry and accomplish
ment and his death is not only cause
for sorrow to those who enjoyed his
friendship, but a loss to the commu-
nifty, which is always a loser when a
good man goes on ahead

Bath Tub Trust.

II one-half OF what the government
charges agains the so-called bath tub
trust is true, it Is one Of the most
merciless and far-reaching combines
yet discovered. The nature of such a
conspiracy is both general and specific,
touching the people OF every class. The
lamentable. fact is that such somehow
seems to be the case with every trust
It is apparently easier to form ,oln-
binations about articles of necessity
than any other kind This is obvious,
Of course, for II articles were not of
the necessaries OF life they would
scarcely be worth the while OF the large
aggregations of wealth that grow pow
erful by cornering markets.
The government appears to have
constructed a firm basis for it's case.
1t presents evidence that Is national in
it's scope and II reliable, so pertinent
to the issue that one looking on from
the outside would at once conclude
that a conviction were not by any
means impossible. The government
has in its principal witness one Of the
inside factors in this combine, whose
testimony will prove the more yalu-
able because he is a reluctant witness.
To him, It is understood, immunity
has been promised. If his testimony
is as strong as II looks to be, such a
promise may we'll be made His con-
viction, since he is not one OF the re-
sponsible heads OF the trust, would
not satisfy the ends Of justice, any
way. II does seem that the govern
ment should be able in this case to gel
az the men higher up" without seri-
GUS difficulty, though, Of course, they
viii fend off the attack from them
selves as long as possible with the lit.
tie fellows lower down.

Washington Post.
The United States has at the present time
some $4,000. 900 iT,llaBitants. in view OF which
the recurring qIiAstf6n OF how they are all
to be fed and clothed. comes up for consld
Grafton Are there enough broad acres 10
support them? And how long win 1t be
before the increase each decade, which has
jumped from a relatively scant 100000. be-
tween 1920 and 1880. to 100000 between 1900
and 1910, will scarcely leave standing room?
These are serious questions, but, happily,
the statisticians furnish still larger figures
Of land area that are calculated TO allay
alarm. While the population has increased
nlnefold since 1920, the area of the country
has become four times greater since 1900;
and as all Of the acquired territory was
practically q wilderness when obtained It
afforded an open field for settlement.
OF the main habitable divisions Of the
world. Africa is the most thinly settled,
with an average OF eleven Inhabitants to
the square mile. Those who have read De
Quincey's opium ridden visions OF the over
populated east have been oppressed with a
sense OF the teeming millions there Yet
Asia, with her $4,000, 900 souls, has land
enough to give a square mile to every sixty
inhabitants, while Europe, with her present
population, must place 10 within the same
limit. This country can still distribute
thrty-one Of it's citizens to each square
mile OF territory, in order to provide for
all, which is Just about half the proverbial
forty acres, without the mule. And as for
standing room, the human race could
gather together within an area far more re-
stricted than might at first seem possible.
The entire population Of this country could
be placed within the District Of Columbia,
and then have more than elbow room; In
fact, each citizen, large and small, would
occupy the center Of square five feet on
a side
It Is probable, then, that the human race
will have plenty Of good SOLD earth for a
long time 10 come, and that we need have
no fears for ourselves nor for the millions
yet unborn.

Effects of Insurgency.

Judge Norris again raises the banner Of
insurgency and proposes to rip things up
as soon as congress convenes. Such pol
icy ought to be of great help to the dem
ocrats. II will prevent the enactment Of
any serious constructive legislation by the
republican party and leave all matters of
importance, except the appropriation bills,
over to the body that will be directed by
Champ Clark and his cohorts. Such a COM
mission is the logical end Of insurgency
Omaha Bee"
Has The Bee read the election returns to
little effect? An election has just been
held which the republican party lost in
standpat territory and won where insur-
gency had thrown off standpat chains. In
Nebraska a republican for the senate and
at least one republican for the house were
defeated because they were not insurgent
enough TO suit the people. Meanwhile Con-
gresham Norris was multiplying his old
majority 300 times. The democratic gains
would obviously not have occurred had. in
surgency been in complete control OF the
republican party How insurgency is a
great help to the democrats Is not man
ifest in the election returns. On what con-
trary evidence The Bee can make demo-
cratic success the logical end of insur-
gency" We cannot imagine. OF one thing
we can be sure The Bee can BE Of great
help to the democrats" in Nebraska by
continuing its fling at progressive repub-
licans.-Linooln Journal.
Exactly so. Whenever a republican
candidate failed to "insuEge" with
SUFFICIENT vehemence to meet the ap-
probation of the so-called Nebraska
insurgents they voted for a democrat.
1t is unfortunate that these alleged
republicans for a long time have pre-
ferred an out-and-out democrat to an
out-and-out republican. If proof of
this were necessary 1t is only required
to turn to the oflcial vote OF Lanoas-
ter county, which gave an average
plurality of above 1900 for repub-
lican candidates on the state ticket,
and then turned around and gave a
majority of more than 500 for the
democratic candidate for congress, de-
feating the republican candidate by
500. In other words, $500 Lancaster
county republicans voted for the dem
ocratic candidate for congress in the
First district because the republican
candidate was an openly ayowed re-
publican and not a sO-called insurgent

Montana Com 70 Extremes.

Montana is one Of the western
states that was caught up in the vor-
tex OF the late political reform hys-
teria Whereas. in former days things
were as free and easy in that state
as they had ever been anywhere in this
country, since this storm broke they
have been about as tight as in any
other state. The anti-pass reform, one

Shin subsidY

The wisdom Of a direct ship subsidy
as a means Of building up our mari
time interests has not sufficiently COM
mended itself to all classes in this COun-
try to warrant favorable action soon.
Apparent as seems the need for ships
to carry our own commerce, there is
still a very deeply-lntrenched feeling
that ship subsidies are discriminatory
in character and not essential to a
merchant marine such as this govern
ment should possess. The New York
Journal of Commerce, itself, is not
only against ship subsidy, but takes
the radical position that the best inter
ests Of the United States do not even
demand a national merchant marine,
and, going further. it declares that 1t
is not essential that this country look
to the building up of foreign trade
with. for instance, South America, or
with any country, for that matter, half
as much as it should look TO the de-
velopment Of interests at home.
Denying the assertion of our min
lister to Argentina that American
merchant marine and banks abroad
would promote American trade in for
eign lands. the Journal says:
We possess a broad section Of the most
favored continent on earth, prolific Of re-
sources and opportunities, only partly de-
veloped II has required and still requires
most Of our energy and capital to keep up
the process Of development TO meet the
wants Of an increasing population, and
even II the process must he slower the
gain from 1t is greater than can be had
from exploiting distant countries or sup
plying the means Of exploiting them, and
that fact would keep the money and cap
itaI working mostly at home
We doubt If this sentiment is quite
representative over the country and
yet It comes from a source that de-
mands serious hearing. 1t goes to
show how far from coherent is our
national mind on this important sub
ject. 1t does not seem to US that
either establishing banks or branches
abroad or building up strong
merchant marine is necessarily ex-
plotting "a distant country or supply
ing the means Of exploiting it," If an
inferior nation can maintain a mer-
| chant marine that can carry our
freight at very low rates and make a
profit, why is it that this nation, with
! it's wonderful resources, cannot main.
tain ships under the American flag ca.
pable of carrying its own commerce
and Of building up foreign trade
which, Of course, the foreign ship does
not do for us?
President Taft in his message to con.
gress directs attention to this need
reminding congress that unless some
action is soon taken the completion Of
the Panama canal will find this the
only great nation without a CONNER
cial fleet of its own. or course, ont
objection persistently made to the di
rect subsidy is that 1t is no more fail
or necessary to this private industr!
than any other. Another objection 4
that the subsidy would very likely fal
into the hands of rich and powerful
ship owners, who ought, without an.
such artificial stimulus, establish ant
maintain this trade. We believe It i
possible to carry on a successful mari
time trade without large financial he'll
from the government.
