RIPPLEs FROM THE HOT WAVE

In Michigan the weather man
Served days all piping hot
The perspiratlon dripped and ran
And breeZes cooled us not,
The comments OF the press have failed
His sCorching powers TO squech,
He is a red hot number
But he can't compare with Welsh.
In great New York the weather man
Has blistered every nose,
The water bubbles boiling hot
From the spray upon the hose;
They fry eggs on the pavements
And boil eggs in the bay,
But ole Br'er Welsh Ia beating that
Two thousand miles away.
Dear Brother Welsh. you're working hard
At least that's what hear
And tho your pokers lost to sight
To memr'y Il is dear.
But in mem'ry let II stlll abide
do not care a penny
Just dole your hot avs without stint
You needn't save me any

Central City Republican; There Is some
criticism Of Governor Aldrich over the

The governor stands out boldly as one OF
the strongest leaders, II not indeed the
strongest, around whom the people OF Ne

clearcut, progressive legislation and the en-
actment and enforcement Of salutary laws
He has hewn to the line no matter whose
territory has been ripped up in the process.
The people have confidence that he is not
making any grandstand play to win prefer
ment for himself, but is fighting brave
and true fight for the principles that he
believes should prevail.

Writing to The Bee from Brad
shaw, John B. Dey ventures to ques-
ton the standing as a republican of
David Anderson, South Omaha's pio-
-neer. We would have one and all un-
derstand that Uncle Dave" is the
original and unterrifed republican in
these parts. He was present as a del
egate to the convention at Philadel-
phia in which the republican party
was born, in 1855, and republicanism
exudes from his every pore. Uncle
Dave" is now in his eightieth year,
and he has voted for every republican
candidate for president, beginning
with Fremont and Lincoln down to
Roosevelt and Taft, The old political
war horse at Bradshaw owes Uncle
Dave" an apology.

An American Claim Upheld.

NtW IUTh ITIDUIt'
The announcement that the British SOW
ereign, acting as arbitrator, has decided
the American claim against Chill in our
favor is highly gratifying. The Alsop
claim has always been regarded here as
legitimate and just, and the dispute over
1t chiefly involved the question whether
Chill, having seized by conquest the terri
tory of africa, should be bound by the OBJ
legations resting against It. The decision
that she is thus bound is in accordance
with equity and with the general principles
OF international law. The impartiality of
the decision, which in any case would be
above suspision, is emphasized by the cir
cumstance that the two parties to the con-
troversy are those with which, OF all
Aemerican states. British relations are
most intimate and most cordial

OMAHA July 1e.-To the Editor of The
Bee: The accounts you print Of doctor
taking off the splints because the patient
did not pay up and another refusing to
respond to a call TO set broken arm are
damaging 10 the medical profession as a
whole why don't you print the names Of
the doctor in each case so he may explain
IL he can and at least exonerate the rest
Of us from breach Of medical etiquette?
NJ ID.
Note-For the same reason that you ask
that your name be withheld. We have
given sufficient details for the doctors to
follow up, but they have never, to our
knowledge, expelled a fellow doctor from
their medical societies for any such mis-
conduct.

Wait for the Verdict.

1t might be Just as well If the vari-
Gus engineers and experts would make
fewer guesses as to whether the bat
tleship Maine was blown up from
within or without. The country had
Just about relapsed into the comfor-
table belief that it was an exterior
explosion, when along came General
Bixby, chief of the engineers, with the
explanation that such a thing was i'm
possible-that 1t was the explosion of
the ships own magazines that sank it
and nothing else. AS we were about
to accept that, after more digging and
developing, expert" opinion swings
back to the theory of an exterior
blow-up, leaving us high and dry
between the two. OF course, from
the day the Maine went down, and
war was declared on Spain. opinion
has differed as TO the cause and con-
ditions of the ships explosion. so that
no one may hope to settle the ques-
ton conclusively now. 1t would seem,
however, that as long as the govern
ment has gone to the trouble and ex-
pense of resurrecting the remains of
the vessel, to find out the truth, II pos
sible, we may as well defer the ver-
dict as to how the ship came to sink,
If there is such a thing as determining
1t exactly, until we have the official
report, which should be near at hand.
