wants Governor TO Get Wise.
OMAHA. oct S.-To the Editor Of The
Bee: In a letter recently published l
observe that our esteemed governor,
nominated and elected by the republican
voters of Nebraska says that:
II President Taft does not do any bet
ter In the future than he has-in the past,
not only will he not be named, but IL
named will be defeated.
, Same old story. Same old song.
This coming from a governor so re-
Gently elected-by republican votes-and
who stumped the state pleading in the
most persistent manner to republicans to
stand by the party nominee; urging party
loyalty. appealing plaintively for the
principles which he. Aldrich ION a re-
publican PLATFORM was advocating,
sounds very, very strange, indeed.
Mr.. Taft has come and gone, but his
friends and admirers will see to 1t that
he will not only carry this state at the
primaries, but that the electoral vote is
duly delivered with promptness and dis
patch.
The governor will please take notice.
No man ever became great in an attempt
to belittle those who elevated him 10
power. No man ever met with success
by deserving his friends. No man ever
achieved anything in life who played false
TO those who trusted him.
Take this friendly hint. governor. and
get wise. w. B. T., A REPUBLICAN.

Wilson'S nelioate Preoedent.

Governor Woodrow Wilson set
rather an uncomfortable precedent to
guide other democratic presidential
aspirants when he refused to let the
New Jersey state convention endorse
his candidacy did he not? With the
convention in his power, be could
as easily as not have let 1t endorse
him. It seems from reports that he
had to do some tall talking to pre-
vent II from endorsing him.
In any way the action is Viewed
it suggests that Governor Wilson
concluded he would gain more. by
taking the unusual course than by
mailing down a fulsome resolution.
But whether Il is bad politics OF bad
taste for the governor to have per-
mitted the use of his name in this
way. Just the same other democrats
have not been as tactful or modest.
Mr.. Folk a year ago In Missouri
worked an endorsement out of the
democrats and Mr.. Folk is regarded
as very sedate gentlemen, II not all
he might be as a tactician.
One finds II hard to believe, how
ever, that such amenities will bother
old political foxes like Champ Clark
or Governor Harmon. The chances
are IL either of these men sees d
state endorsement hanging out he
will seize it with all the avidity pos
sible and let delicate precedents GO
to the winds.

Cironmstantial Evidence

If registration frauds were COM
mitted anywhere in Omaha last year
they afford no justification or pal
llation for registration frauds COM
mitted this year. Correct. But the
sudden conversion to 1oud-mouthed
reform of democrats who hold office
as beneficiaries of the Third ward
vote makes their sincerity decidedly
questionable. 1t would be mighty
easy, for example, for the democratic
bosses, who are known to be none toe
scrupulous, to plant a few fake
names on the registration books here
and there and even label them RE-
publican" to help cover up their
tracks, and then make a grand ex.
posture to the galleries. We do mo-
say this is the democratic program
but lots of jircumstautial evidenc,
point that way.
