Carrying It Altogether Too Far.

For Nebraska, and regardless OF partisan
ship, The Bee enters firm protest against the
palable injustice sought to be perpetrated by
the Worlds Work in excluding our most dis
tinguished fellow citizen from first magnitude
rank as statesmen. THE two most interest
ing subjects in politics are Mr.. Wilson and Mr..
Roosevelt" declares the Worlds Work 1t re-
fers to them as "the two strongest characters
in political life" and again says that aside from
these two dominant figures the political world
Is unusually devoid of strong personality" To
be sure, 1t mentions Mr.. Bryan In passing, but
II mentions Mr. Underwood and Senator Borah
ahead OF him, and sidetracks him merely as a
subordinate In the Wilson administration. Fin
ally, as II to make a bad matter worse II con-
cludes that excepting Mr.. Wilson and Mr..
Roosevelt, our politics is not now filled with
many commanding figures"
So we reiterate our protest that this Is
carrying It altogether too far, for so long as
Mr. Bryan remains a factor in our politics there
can be no two dominant" or Commanding"
figures unless he is one of them. The only con-
cession we would even consent to consider would
be to enlarge the du-umvirate and make 1t a
tri-umVirate.

meat has made a much much needed return cargo
for vessels trading between New York and Austral-

have been found sufficiently encouraging by the
steamship owners and agents to put the service be-

seventeen ships Of this special class of meat

The barons OF business, those imperial po-

that the season shall begin with short coat and
end with long one. II 1t were the other way

EMERSON, Ia, July 25.-To the Editor
OF The Bee The association opposed to
woman's suffrage says, we are told that
about a month after women we're given
the ballot In California, Los Angeles voted
on local option and the measure was
defeated Q to l." Reliable people OF
I,os Angeles say that young women
wearing the white ribbon were hired to
stand near the polls and hand out the
wrong ballot TO these new voters. The
women were caught mapping, but the
lesson on vigilance will not be lost.

There are 1000 more male voters

forty years to obtain.
All honor TO the loyal temperance men
OF every state who have caught the
vision OF a saloonless nation and are
working toward that end. I have been

I know how tirelessly the women worked
TO help force the issue; you cannot blame
them because they did not help by their
