Japanese Spared a Horrible Fate.
The Pacific Mail steamer Korea

of their waterlogged fishing boat

swell of the open soa lying in the
pathway of the Great Northern liner

Moi to Nagasaki and Manila.
Captain Garlck, master of the big
liner ran across the distressed fisher

on a great curve and brought her ,up
so that the fishing boat lay right UNI

bulk with as much precision and ease

Ever since the New Orleans arriv-

subsequently he fell In love with a

The Shelving of Lord Kitchener

Americans who have not taken
the pains to inform themselves that
politics dominates the British war Of
flee, may be surprised to know that
England has sent Lord Kitchener, it's
greatest soldier and military genius,
to the quiet, sequestered post Of pro-
consul in Egypt, instead of placing
him in charge of the army's reorgani-
cation. For Lord Kitchener had the
hardihood to say what he thought
were the defects and remedies of the
army, which is admittedly in need of
recognizing
Lord Kitchener evidently speaks
his mind too plainly. He is what, in
the vernacular of American kings of
commerce, would be known as an
unsafe man" Therefore, put him
off in Egypt. where he cannot in
terfere with the bureaucrats in the
British war department. The argu-
ment they are using is that he is
advanced in years" He is SO and
looks to be about so; as robust and
strong as most men of 40, as was
, generally remarked on the occasion of
his late tour across the American con-
tinent. It is estimated that in five
years Lord Kitchener could bring
Britain's army back to a high stand
ard, Certainly he would be good for
five years OF hard work.
Too bad Tor Great Britain if it has
allowed politics in the military arm
of the government, for that is an arm
on which Englishmen lean with much
competency II is conceded to be de-
moralized in organization, poorly
manned and entirely inadequate to
the needs OF the kingdom. All this

Athletics in College Course.

The board of regents of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin has made athletics
part of the regular course of study,
which, when combined with literary
work, will count toward a bachelor of
arts degree. AS great an innovation
as this is, it seems to be but the log
zeal result of the tendency of large in
situations in late years. Development
of the physical side of the youth has
come to be generally recognized as
quite essential in the intellectual ed
ucation and Incorporating athletics
into the curriculum is but reducing
them to a more scientific basis which
will tend to promote their value as a
factor in the young mans training.
Wisconsin takes this step at time
when it is engaged in trying to reform
athletics among the institutions COM
posing what is known as the big
Eight" and therefore its action is be-
ing criticised as an attempt to entice
students away from other schools.
This comes under the head of prosely-
ting, capital offense with the Big
Eight. All that criticism. however, is
purely technical and may be entirely
ill-founded. The point is, Wisconsin
has taken the most advanced ground
in direction many institutions have
| tended for years, and If 1t can accom-
phsh the two-fold purpose of reducing
college athletics to better science
and purge them of all unfairness and
unsportsmanship 1t certainly will be
doing something which other colleges
and universities will sooner or later
see At to emulate.
No school, college or university can
afford to be Indifferent to the physical
development of youth. That is a tru-
ism. 1t was a long time in impress
ing itself, but it has finally done that.
Now, the only thing left is to perfect
the ways and means OF doing what is
conceded to be necessary without
OVERRIDING 1t. If Wisconsin has shown
the way. then all the better. OF
course, its innovation will be an ex-
pertinent watched with critical obser-
walton.

Cut the weeds,

OMAHA, July 19-ITo the Editor of The
Bee: The Union Pacific, one of the great
est systems of railroads in the country,
has It headquarters in Omaha. The new
building under course of construction, soon
to be occupied by the large number OF EN-
ployes here Of that road, is a credit to the
city and state. One block from the Union
Pacific headquarters building is one Of
the main business streets and within al
most a stones throw to the east, also to
the north, are vacant lots with a growth Of
weeds, some OF them waist high. on Mon
day as the good roads" auto parade pro-
ceeded to the den I wonder If our FIRE.
mont neighbors noticed some of these
numerous downtown lots overgrown with

| Many people pass through our city and
during these summer months numbers Of

alone for pleasure, but rather to learn as
much as possible OF city in which at some
future time they may invest capital in some
| enterprise. They cannot help seeing what
we who live here see every day, to our
shame be It said, and such things have
an influence which is not for the good Of
this city. In smaller towns the city dads
1 would order all weeds removed by the own
ers of the lots, and II not done in reason
able time the city would have the work
done and the expense assessed against the
lots. The weeds usually disappear in short
order as they also would in Omaha If proper
attention was given the matter by the ones
whose duty II is to attend to such things.

Commission Plan Signers.

Although The Bees commission
plan petitions have already been signed
up by many more than the necessary
number of voters to make them effec-
tive, we are constantly receiving re-
quests from voters who want to at
tach their signatures, but who have
been missed by our solicitors.
There has been no intention or de-
sign in the circulation of these petit
tions to discriminate and we do not
want anyone who has not been asked
for his signature to feel that he has
been purposely overlooked. We have
not the slightest doubt that II the petit
tions could be presented to every
qualified voter in the city So per cent
of them would promptly sign up.
For those who have been missed,
and who wish to have their names on
the petition that puts the commission
plan machinery in motion, we have
placed blanks in The Bee business
office, corner Seventeenth and Far
nam streets, where they will be access
sible generally to the public for few
days yet.

Is Intensive Farming Losingl

An agricultural and good roads ex-
pert at the real estate mems conven-
ton IN Denver raises the cry once
more about soil robbery and renews
the dark prediction that unless our
farmers give attention to the methods
of intensive agriculture the soil of
the country will be exhausted in fifty
years" He states unequivocally that
farmers are not acting on the scientific
advice given them as to intensive Gull
tivation and that this is the source
of much disbursement to govern
ment experts.
We are at loss to know by just
what method of computation this ex-
pert figures out that fifty years will
be required to impoverlsh all our soil.
James J. Hill, who used to make sim
liar forecasts, has even placed the
limit as low as twenty-five years
Though, be It said for Mr.. Hill, he
seems to have had his gloom dispelled
and is now viewing life very cheer
fully-from the cool, breeze-blown
coast of Labrador.
We may be permitted to doubt
whether this expert is correct when he
says that the farmers are not learning
the lessons of intensive agriculture.
There are evidences to show that they
are. The steady increase In produc-
ton per acre is one of them, one Of
the very best of them. Competitions
and schools Of farming all over the
country are others. 1t does not seem
quite reasonable to believe that, hav-
ing had all the advantages Of intensive
crop raising pointed out so systemat-
ically to them, the wise old farmers of
this country would deliberately turn
their backs upon them. We believe
that intensive farming is making head
way every year and that there is
abundant proof of t. The govern
ment's own agencies show 1t. Their
aid in retaining and irrigating land
is the essence of intensive farming. To
take different view one must believe
that all the agricultural colleges, ex-
positions and government experimental
stations are failing to accomplish re-
suits and the people are not prepared
to believe that.

Political Archaeology.

Our amiable democratic contem-
porary would like very much to side
step "the more or less interesting
archaeological question" as to who
threw the first brick, and to unload
responsibility for the resolutions de-
nouncing Mr.. Bryan, adopted almost
without dissent in the recent demo-
cratic county convention, made up of
that sheets proteges and employees.
Political archaeology never was its
favorite study, for there are too many
musty documents in the archives that
it prefers to leave sealed and un-
opened. The records of the Jackson
ian club, for example, are still in
scribed, unless secretly expunged, with
the following resolution adopted by
that repository of pure and indebted
democracy in the heyday of its power,
not so many years ago:
Whereas, A publication known as the
Omaha World-Herald assumes to speak for
the democratic party of Douglas county,
and for many years past has received some
TeCOSnluOn anu patronage tnere1rOns ana,
Whereas, Said publication has proved
itself recreant to every trust reposed and
an migrate to every favor shown and has
wantonly and stupidity betrayed the party
and its nominees; therefore. be 1t
Resolved, BY the Jacksonian club of Ne
braska, That this sheet does not represent
the democratic party of this county and
has forfeited all claims to it's confidence;
that democrats should beware of it's libels
and falsehoods and should know TO a GER
tainty that it belongs to the tribe and
speaks the language of the dervishes and
defaulters.
Delving into political archaeology is
a more or less interesting pastime
even in hot weather days.

think they are are interested as to whether
my views at the present time are consistent
with those held and expressed by me at
some previous time Thinking this do
not propose to tax your space or their

connection. II ever l used the language
imputed to me in todRy's issue OF The Bee,
welcome the opportunity to make public
retraction Of II. II l did use II in con-
nection with work Of the Success league,
l was guilty Of more consistency, since !
publicly declared my support Of Mr.. Bryan,
In opposition to any other man in the
state, for delegate-at-large to the national
convention at that time. As my last word
in the matter l want to declare with all
possible emphasis, that would rather
support W. ]. Bryan for president OF the
United States than any man in either
party, and l cheerfully accept full response
bility for whatever inconsistency may APP
pear between this declaration and any
views may have held or expressed at any
previous time. I would rather be right

DR.. WILEY AND HIS WAYS.

New York Post: We may be sure that
IL President Taft does finally demand DIR.
Wiley's resignation, 1t will be only because
he is convinced that a great principle Is
involved in the petty charge, which he can
not afford to overlook.
Boston TRANSCRIPT: We are confident
that President Taft will not permit such
fimsy considerations to Interfere with his
perception Of the injustice of this attempt
to get DR.. Wiley out of the way of the
aduterators and prisoners of the people.
st. Louis Republic: DR.. Wiley. in short
is a crank. Whether an honest or a dis
honest one, he is none the less volatile
and full of whims. The good effects of his
work have been mnlmized and modified by
the manner in which the work has been
done.
New York World: DIR. Wiley's dismissal
would be a grietous loss to the public
service. 1t would be unfortunate for the
people and the Taft administration. 1t
would be fortunate only for those who are
deprived OF their profits from fraudulent
preparations and adulterated foodstuffs.
Chicago Post: Speaking broadly, the
enemies of DR.. Wiley are the enemies of the
people of this country. The chief chemist

and the cheaters and prisoners in foods.
That he should be dismissed on any back

Wlckersham or anyone else is unthinkable.
Cleveland Plain Dealer: II DR. Wiley
must go-and thousands on thousands Of
people who never saw the man nor could
tell what position he holds will hope that
he need Motif he must go, it will be in
cumbent upon President Taft to secure as
his successor a man no less able and ener-
getic. no less enthusiastic and earnest on
the side OF honest food
