visited Stauffer school last
Thursday. The pupils gave a
splendid program. There was
fine display of needlework, note
books, drawing, writing and
miniature farm with growing
crops, stock, buildings, telephone,
everything complete. Friday the
good people of Beaver Dam had
a big basket dinner, a large
crowd and an interesting school
program. These people are TAX
ing great interest in their school,
and are talking many improve
ments. Miss Blanche White has
done some good work the past
year and we hope the district will
be able to keep her another year.
Friday night the young people of
Cauthorn district gave fine en-
tertainment, presenting a play Of
real farm life. The Cauthorn peo-
pie are alive to the interests of
their school. They have realized
more than 500 this wear by en-

was a fine gathering of school
patrons at Crow, and a big din
ner. Crow is very anxious for an
approved school, and they are GO

PLAYING His weak Suit.

President wilson's letter addressed TO Con-
gresham Underwood Is really an appeal 90 the
country for endorsement OF the democratic adj
ministration. although written in the form Of
grateful acknowledgment for the co-help Of the
democratic members of the two houses in carry
ing out the White House legislative program.
When the president goes to such length TO
uphold and Justify the different measures he has
forced through congress, he is wasting time. be-
cause ali he need have said is that the providen-
tal interruption of the European war has saved
the democrats from being held responsible for
any possible III effects from their law-making.
Ho does worse than waste time, however, for he
either wilfully or careiessly distorts the facts
to secure partisan advantage. as, for example.
when he repeats the foolish talk about our
banking and currency system being for more
than generation the worst in the world, and
in the boast that nobody took effective steps to
change It until the present congress addressed
itself to the task with genuine resolution"
In the first place. our banking and currency
system has not yet been changed the new re-
serve banks being still in allegiance. and, in the
second place, no banking and currency system
that was ''the worst in the world" could possibly
have permitted the tremendous development.
business expansion and prosperity which the
United States has enjoyed all these years under
both democratic and republican administrations.
Neither 1t is true that nobody took effective
steps toward currency reform until the present
congress grappled with the problem, for every
one knows that all the preliminary steps for
currency and banking reform were taken before
the democrats came into power, and that the
Glass bill Is only a modification OF the Aldrich
bill. whose principle is adopted with compare
lively unimportant changes Of administrative
details.
The presidents statements about the demo-
cratic tariff and the new trust laws invite
similar criticism. These laws have either been
nulified by the war or have not yet become
operative
Tho president would have done much better
to have passed up the democratic legislative
record with the simple explanation that unfore-
seen emergencies have prevented It's fruition.
The really strong card In his hand Is his success
in avoiding war complications In Mexico and
in Europe. and. IN our judgment. he makes a
serious mistake when he plays from his weak
suit.

Nebraska. Nonpartisan Judiciary Law.

The impending election win witness the first
trial in Nebraska or our new nonpartisan judici-
airy law. While this measure merely provides a
form OF ballot separating the judicial offices
from the party tickets, and eliminating all par
tisan. labels, The underlying thought is a de-
sire 70 protect our courts and Judges from be-
ing exposed to the varying fortunes OF party
politics. Under this theory. positions the
bench should be filled solely with reference to
the ability experience and public service Of the
candidates rather than their party affiliations
in other words. the Judge giving satisfactory
service should not be recalled because he Is a
democrat or fepublican. but should be retained
until there Is good reason Tor change. and
prospect Of change for the better.
Here in Douglas county the nonpartisan bal
lot calls for votes for three different judicial
offices--chief Justice of the supreme court. one
district judge to fill vacancy. and county judge
for which In each case It happens that the
sitting Judge has been renominated, namely,
Chief Justice Reese. District Judge English and
County Judge Crawford II Is no dIsparage-
ment OF the opposing candidates for US TO say
that no good reason has been advanced for re-
calling any one OF these three judges. and that,
on the contrary, the arguments are strong for
continuing each OF them by reelection, regard
less OF the fact that one OF them heppens to be a
democrat and the other two republicans.

soUTH OMAHA. oct. 19--To the Edi-
tor OF The Bee: II seems TO me that the
Ak-sarBen people made a great mistake
this year In practically banisblng the
county fair TO the almost inaccessible
little village OF Waterloo.
Last year there was a magnificent dis
play OF fine horses, cattle, hogs and pou'-
try and very good agricultural display,
considering the fact that there was
drouth last year for long while.
This year In place OF the county fair ex-
hiblt there were a lot OF fake shows,
sleight OF hand performers. performing
bear, two camels. some bucking bron-
chos. some mild west performers and In
dianH. as well as some Arabs.
II may be all right to have some OF
such shows. but think II is a mistake in
q great agricultural region like Nebraska
20 have lot OF shows that are not edu-
cationai I'm tho least In place Of display
OF farm products OF the high order that
could have been exhibited IN this very
fruitful year.
Last year in the carnival grounds met
people from Idaho. Oregon. Montana.
Pennsylvania. Ohio and other states east
and west and they expressed great de-
light at the display Of the Douglas County
Agricultural socisty =. se.... ..ts,.-
'If there are any differences between the
fair people and the carnival people,. they
had hetter settle them and. bring the
I county fair back to the carnival grounds
IN 1915, where 1000 people will see the
displays where one will or did see them
