words

as indicating indifference to the fact
of the tragedy that snuffed out the
lives Of eighteen foreign born citi-

is that the appalling frequency with

Business 0ntlonk

With the abundant grain harvests
indicated by the government reports
and the prospects of well-maintained
business forecasted by Dun's trade re-
view, the outlook warrants no
Encouragement. OF course, most
lines of trade sag at this season, and
they have undergone no exception
this summer, but this dizziness is no
proper criterion for reckoning on the
future. According to Dun's the inactiv-
ity this summer is not abnormal, not
any more pronounced than usual On
in the business condition, for the
believing that its effect will not deter
trade in recuperating as much as it
usually does, owing to other condi-
lions presaging a lively demand in so
many lines of fall and winter stock.
Railroad earnings, always factor
in the business condition for the
month of June made a satisfactory
comparative showing, losing only 1.5
per cent as compared with earnings
for the same period a year ago. In
very few instances is a heavy loss re-
ported by any single railroad. With
the incoming harvests as great as
they promise to be, railroad traffic
may look forward to increases rather
than decreases.
While the conservative tone natural
at a time so close upon a national
election may be expected to prevail,
sound prophets are looking for good
business during the remaining months
of this year and the first part of next,
which is as far into the future as the
average prophet cares to venture.
Nothing in the money situation
particularly calls for uneasiness.
Dun's says that commercial operations,
as indicated by the volume of bank
clearings, again reflect a trend toward
improvement. The country is enjoy
ing a vast foreign trade. In fact,
according to government reports, the
year ending June 80 was the largest
in foreign business this country has
ever had, the total volume of trade
amounting to $3,50O,O0O,0O which
is more than 100000 in excess
of last years record.

BRADSHAW, Neb., July l5.-To the
Editor of The Bee: The above caption,
which appeared in the Letter Box of
The Bee of Friday is a remarkable produc-
ton. Looking at the captain one would
naturally conclude that the reader was
about to be treated to an argument, but in
stead there appears no set argument what
ever, and but little Of anything else but
balderdash. The writer utterly fails to de-
fine or locate himself squarely on any of
the many issues he speaks of and the
reader is left in the dark whether Mr..
Anderson is an insurgent. standpatter, pro-
gressive or a democrat. There are but two
persons among those named in his arti-
Gle to whom he has given a clean bill, Joe
Cannon and Judge Smith, late congress
man from the Ninth Iowa district TAX
ing these two points as clue to his politi-
cal identity, 1t is possible for the careful
reader to find traces of standpatism, but,
then, 1t is difficult to get at what the gen.
tleman really wants to say, and the guess
u.s. however that he is extremely skittish
as to his grounds and does not care to
hampton even what he really would like
on political matters The gentleman is not
alone in his predicament for we find
leading newspapers extremely cautious
how they touch on any of the many sided
political phases now before the people.
President Taft, alone. appears to be the
only man who seems to feel certain that
he is right and is willing to stake his
reputation. rise or fall, in the advocacy
and stand on the Canadian reciprocity bill,
and for this sincerity and confidence in
what he is advocating he is gaining the
favor and confidence of the best thinking
people mot agitators or demagogues) OF
| this great American republic.

That the work devolving on the
head of a railroad law department
furnishes no bed of roses, nor is es-
pecially conducive to long life, is again
emphasized by the death of Ben T.
White, chief legal engineer of the

plorable termination of Mr.. Whites
career at comparatively early age
recalls the death of his predecessor,
w. B. Sterling, and the passing of w.

where Cleanliness Comes First.
OMAHA, July l5.-To the Editor Of The
Bee: Chemist Crowley's report to the ef-
feet that the breweries are cleaner than
the diaries is interesting, but not espe-
cialy informing. Anyone at all familiar
with the facts has long known that the
breweries, In fact, the bakeries. the meat
markets, the grocery stalls, all places
where food for human consumption is
handled or cared for, are kept cleaner
than the diaries.
Not that a dairy cannot be kept clean.
Mr. Crowley cites the example of a model
dairy he discovered at Indianapolis May
be permitted to call attention to the fact
that the printers discovered long ago how
to keep a dairy clean? Years ago when
the International Typographical union
undertook the establishment of a sani-
tarium for its tuberculous members. It was
confronted with the problem Of how to
secure supply Of pure milk The solu-
ton of the problem was not so simple but
Il was solved.
At the Union Printers home at Colorado
Springs a dairy has been in operation for
many years that is model. II is so
simple too, that one wonders why It is not
more frequently copied The cows are

fore being MIXED, and are permitted TO

kept. scrupulously clean. They are then
taken into barn and thoroughly groomed,
and their udders are washed in an antisep-
tic solution. From here they are taken to
milking barn, which has a concrete floor.
Just before the cows are brought in, the
air in the milking barn is washed by
spraying with an antseptic solution, and
the floors are flushed similarly. Then the
COWS are MIXED by machinery the milk
is strained through cotton, and is set away
to cool before being served to the guests of
the home.

but have been assured by Superintendent

above the charge made for milk provided
