When President Gilmore of the Feds
visited Cleveland last week he did not
deny two stories, one that he was after
several Yankee players and the other
that he was planning to locate a fran
chise in the Forest city. But the real OBJ
ject of his visit. according to agents of
the major leagues. was an attempt to in
terest a well known brewer in the Feds
cause. Gilmore, SO the gossips declare,
tried to secure a big loan to help one
of the clubs in his circuit but the person
who was approached finally declined to
put up when he learned several interest
ing things.

WASHINGTON NEWS
By Edward Heating.

The voters of Colorado are to have an
opportunity this fall to hear some of the
great leaders of Democracy. Bryan has
already promised to swing through the
Arkansas Valley and Northern Colorado
and he may be followed by Secretary
Lane, Speaker Clark, Vice President
Marshall, and other national figures.
Colorado, however, is considered pref
tv "safe" this year and some of these
big guns" may be shifted to more
doubtful territory.
Their presence in the campaign serves
to emphasize the fact that the Republi-
can party is without leaders.
At least, our Standpat friends have
no leaders whom they would care to ex-
hibit to the public.
Of course, there is "Uncle Joe" Cam
non, and Senator Penrose and Boss
Barnes. Aldrich is still alive-t the other
day saw his name in list of arrivals
from Europe-and William H. Taft con-
tributes an occasional article to a mag
azine.
If these men are not the..::leaders of
the Republican party, who has a right
to lay claim to that distinction?
Does any one doubt that Cannon and
Penrose and Barnes would manage the
show" if the Standpatters were return
ed to power?
Being the leaders why are they COM
PEELED to remain in the back ground?
Why not hire few special trains and
send them around the country.:an give
them an opportunity to tell just how the y
would run the government if they were
in control of things?
The Democracy proudly parades its
Chieftains so they may be known of all
men. The Standpatters dare not bill
their leaders in a single doubtful state.
The reason for this extraordinary con-
duct is not far to seek: The Standpat-
ters know their leaders are despised and
discredited, while Democrats know that
their leaders command the confidence Of
the people.
Cannon, Penrose, Barnes!
Wilson, Bryan, Clark!
What contrast!

1t is now thought that congress
will adjourn by Saturday night. This
will give its members two weeks TO
return to their respective states and
repair their political fences before
election. Colorado's delegation can
spend their time visiting their rela-

kept their fences in such repair dur
ing their absence. they will hold in

The Workhouse Problem.

Although declining to approve the scheme
to vote 100000 in bonds to build new city
jail, the committee representing the different
civic organizations in its investigation of and
report upon this subject did not hesitate to say
that our real need is for workhouse and in
this It points out the vital defect in our local
penal system.
1t would be difficult to estimate in money
how much the want of a workhouse has cost
and is costing, our taxpayers, for Omaha is one
OF the few cities of its size in the country which
practically extends standing invitation to ho-
boes and petty offenders to come here and ac-
cept the public hospitality in beautiful mod
ern and sanitary county Jail without doing a
stroke OF work to earn their board or being sub
Jected to any special discomfort. The records,
we are Informed, disclose that many of the very
identical persons almost continuous guests
in the local bastiles, coming back again and
again to enjoy restful seclusion at no cost to
themselves.
For years, in season and out OF season. The
Bee has been advocating a workhouse, but un-
fortunately, has been unable to arouse the pub
lie, especially the business men, to the urgent
need Of 1t and to the view that IL would be a
profitable investment II 1t did nothing more
than cause undesirable citizens to give us a wide
berth. We hope the committee whose report
we have referred to, will follow up this matter
and not let go OF 1t until the solution OF the
workhouse problem is accomplished.

The "Blessing-in- Disguise" vagary

Whenever great death-spreading
catastrophe occurs wondrous wiseacres invaria-
bly, project themselves with two ready-made ex-
plantations, first, that it is scourge OF God sent
to punish mans wickedness, and second, that
II is a blessing in disguise. The punishment
theory that requires the sacrifice Of innocent
men, women and children, and loads the grew
some penalty upon generations yet unborn, is,
however, easily championed as compared with
the Observation-Disclosures" vagary, which is pred
icated upon such a peculiar definition of what
a blessing consists Of
1t used to be the custom of certain easy
going folks to say that IL was a good thing for
child to have the measles or scarlet fever, and
that grown-up was purified by being the vic
tim of dread disease, but modern medical sci
ence does not believe that the body is strength
ened by weakening some part of it. II disease
served to build up the body we would welcome
disease. Likewise, II war we're a blessing in
disguise, we would want more wars and would
have reason to pray for peace
Just put It down that there never was any
blessing obtained by war, which would not have
been more of a blessing obtained without war.
The blessings of peace are obvious and visible
without pretense disguise If war has any
redeemng feature that can be called a blessing
It is only by contrast with something wholly i'm
aginary that make ourselves look upon as
still worse.

Pan.Germanism, Pan-slavism, Pan.1slam.

Widespread discussion is revolving about a
book called "Pan-Germanism." written by Prof.
Roland G. Usher of Washington university, in
on the shelves almost unnoticed until the out
break OF the present European war, when, as
now discovered 1t is found TO contain a com
prehensive analysis OF the international factors
at play between the great monarchs OF Europe
heading for the conflict, with speculative ex-
PLANTATION Of motives, purposes and plans. which
seem in large part to be verified by later de-
velopments.
Pan-Germanism, as conceived by Prof.
Usher. is the ambition, to make German influ-
enee, German institutions, German culture and
German industry supreme throughout the
world by force of arms II necessary. II is sup
posed to be the Germanic reincarnation of the
schemes OF Caesar, OF Charlemagne OF Ma
poleon, and of all the men on horseback who
have sought to grip the reins OF the universe.
In another sense Pan-Germanism is the com
bative resistance to the onslaught OF other race
elements aiming at supremacy. We must re-
member that the pretext for Austria's ultimatum
to Servia was charge OF fomsnting a propa-
ganda for Pan-Slavism. On the other side, it
is said the Turkish sultan is trying to make
himself the center of a movement for Pan-Islam
and the same idea that is embodied in the term
We have sometimes applied to the japanese
when we speak OF them the yellow peril.
Pan-Germanism, Pan-Slayism. Pan-Islam, all
rest on the basic thought that civilization must
be under one ruling culture Just as in former
centuries men thought and believed there must
