AvocR, Ia. Aug. l5.-To the Editor Of The
Bee: Everybody knows foreign nations are
entering the third year of one Of the greatest
wars of modern or ancient times. It Is also
known that this nation is standing on the
threshold Of war, with our boys sticking
around the border ready to thrash Mexico
when n long suffering charitable spirit, has
suffered sufficiently with human endurance
exhausted. Then there is the railroad strike
confronting US wherein every man, woman
and child, in proud and free America, will be
vitality affected with difference and distinc-
ton in the final decision.
Peering into a prospective future, we find
the present executive ard president of the
United States Jumping sideways with the
G. O., P. camping on his trail--aftsr his scalp
as 1t were. This disgruntled and disunited
party that placed Mr.. Wilson in power four
years ago. who would magnify the mistakes
of Moses to win their point of vantage, are
echoing the battle cry of freedom on the
great highways and byways and In the
hedges. Divers ones appear to think he got
married at an inopportune time Of his ad-
ministration. Watchful waiting could have
been applied here with force, that in their
estimation would have placed him on
pedestal of fame and glory from this source
alone. had he only watched and waited. They
also hold him to an accounting for the sink
ing Of ship in midocean by one Of the war
ring factions In war time, when we all knew
the safest place was under our own vine
and fig tree until the storm on the other
shores abates. His failure to make a muir

Keeping Omaha Clean.

One OF our correspondents touches on several
weak spots in the general plan of municipal house
keeping in Omaha, but is unjust in at least one
statement. The newspapers Of Omaha, whatever
their many other shortcomings may be, have never
conceded that the city is kept as clean as it should
be. This doesn't apply entirely to the matter of
sweeping the downtown streets, which are we'll
enough cared for, but it has reference to the gen.
eral scope OF cleanliness. Garbage and household
refuse is not properly cared for now, and never
was This has been referred to many times in The
Bee, and the council has been repeatedly urged to
adopt some method that would bring better serv-
ice and more satisfactory results. Discussion of
the topic never got very far in the council cham
Der, for some reason, and the unsanitary and ur-
satisfactory, wasteful and annoying method that
now prevails is perpetuated out of all reason.
When will the council be ready to approach, this
vital question and properly dispose of it1

Another Big Railroad Problem.

According to the Railway Age Gazette, the
transportation lines Of the United States are

OF cars for hauling freight. The figures given

Make the Streets Safer.

Enough of reckless driving still persists to
render certain Of the city's streets extremely per-
ilous In spite of warnings and examples, thought
less or inexperienced autoists continue to drive
at high speed along thoroughfares where ordinary
prudence would suggest caution at least. Omaha's
police force Is not numerous enough to provide
the close supervision that is needed, SO much must
be LETT to the automobile drivers to look after By
far the greater majority Of these exercise the care
that is required, but some of them speed along re-
gardless OF their own or others salty some way
must be devised to reach these, for the streets
OF the city must be kept safe Accidents such
as that of Tuesday are avoidable and that thew
DO happen is proof that somewhere something
is radically wrong The prudent automobile
owner ought not to suffer because of the reckless
ness OF another, but his great chance to avoid
blame lies in his helping to suppress the menace.

Same Old Virus of Reputation.

The admiring public is challenged to behold
another dazzling stroke OF finance championed by
our democratic senator from Nebraska BY which
Uncle Sans treasure box is TO be filled without
taking any money out of the pockets of his own
people. Sharp inspection, however discloses that
the connection is nothing but the old virus of re-
pudiation put up in a new bottle freshly labeled
Tax upon sales Of foreign-owned securities"
What Senator Hitchcock would do, as cx-
planned in his paper, is to clip off one or two
per cent of all American bonds or stocks sent
here by foreigners to be cashed in or disposed OF
and OF course if we could take one or two per
cent, we might Just as well take ten or twenty per
cent or, at pinch, conhscate the entire holding
The inherent dishonesty Of the proposed trans
action becomes palmer on closer analysis. For
years we invited foreign investors to send their
money here to help develop our resources and
finance industries and the property repre-
scented by their securities, as well as the earnings
OF that property, is being taxed here the same
as our own investments. When the foreigner
sends his stocks and bonds back he merely asks
repayment Of the money he loaned us and he nat
uray expects to get full value or at least to get
the same price they would bring to any other
holder. On past investments the Hitchcock
amendment would be equivalent to reputation of
whatever percentage the tax might be, while for
future investments the foreigner would either re-
fuse absolutely to risk his money on such haz-
ard or he would discount the tax in advance and
deduct il from the original price.
A good way to test the soundness, or rather
unsoundness, Of such proposal is to reverse it
Suppose, for example the Canadian government,
after encouraging us to invest money in Canadian
industries, suddenly notified us that we could not
get our money back without handing slice Of it
to the tax collector. Our Canadian securities,
supposed to be worth hundred cents on the dol
lar, would at once be shaved by the amount of
the tax and our only recourse would be to let
our Canadian cousins know that they would not
catch us as their victims again
The Hitchcock foreign -hodngs-tax scheme
differs only in degree from that more ancient
democratic financial "cure-all' that was going to
enable US to pay off one -hundred-cent debts with
hfty-cent silver dollars That l6to-l free coinage
reputation was, all know rejected and so will
be this new-fangled reputation

Publicity and Democracy.

Publicity for Nebraska is a good thing, and
1t is well understood that the state has not had
the legitimate advertising to which it is entitled
and which it fully deserves, In considering this
TACT seriously, DO not overlook the further fact
however. that representative body of newspaper
men and university authorities has gone twice to
legislatures, where the democrats held the purse
strings asking for modest appropriation to sun.

that the issue seems attractive as vote-getter.

Wilson for Humanity.

Omaha. Aug. 1s.-To the Editor Of The
Bee: tissues and Events" July 20, 1915,
brings under the heading. Humanity Spark
in Washington" Press reports read to the
effect that President Wilson has sent per-
sonal appeal to European rulers urging their
cooperation in relieving the starving people
of Poland.
The president has our hearty congratula-
ton. At the same time we cannot help but
think of that little syllable CO. As far
ss we aware there has never been any sign
of cooperation from Washington for the re-
lief Of war sufferers. nor even an independent
operation. There has been instead the most
cold blooded calculations as to how to sweat
as much blood and coin out of the warning
countries of Europe.
This might be given as a frank and open
summary of President Wilson's administra-
ton since the summer of 1914. We will be
charitable enough to say that It has not
been all his own doings and that he has
been under great pressure Of greedy fnan-
ciers. Even the wisdom of his or their
policy Is open to challenge, since this blood
money will bring this country little or no
good, in the end. After the present period
Of artificial prosperity president Wilson's
innermost wish was on prosperity-for re-
election purposes) there will follow q period
of reaction.
And 1t may be well that some humanita-
rian feelings are awakening in Washington
We shall gladly see them develop to greater
strength. Comparing this opening" with
the procedures of the pest one is led to be-
ieve that other steps in similar direction
might follow and II is possible that this ap-
peal Is merely prelude to a proposal for
general peace. This may be more Of wish
than probability, but we hope It Is true,
and we trust that the president may take
these steps.
The above writing is intended to answer
the editorial Of the democratic "World-Her-
add Peace and Humanity" and the letter
Of John B. Coady In the same organ of
August 16. 1915; but as the editor of that
paper personally has refused several of my
letters could not expect this Wilson editor
to print this one at all.
So kindly give me space again to Offset the
misrepresentation Of Hughes and the republ-
can party as stated in the World Herald.

PROMOTION.

Edgar A. Guest, in Detroit Free Press
Promotion comes to him who sticks
Unto his work and never kicks.
Who watches neither clock nor sun
TO tell him when his task Is done:
Who tolls not by a stated chart
Dennins to Jot his part.
But gladly does little more
Ihan he's remunerated for.
The man In factory or shop
Who rises quickly to the top
Is he who gives what can't be bought
Intelligent and careful thought.
No one can say Just when begins
me service that promotion wins.
Or when 1t ends. tbs not defined
BY certain hours or any kind
VI system that has been devised.
Merit cannot be systematized.
II Is at work when It's at play.
II serves each minute Of the day:
It's always at Its post to see
New ways of help and use to be.
Merit from duty never sinks,
Its cardinal virute is-it thinks!
Promotion comes to him who tries
Not solely for a selfish prize
But day by day and year by year
Holds his employers interests dear,
Who measures not by what he earns
The sum of labor he returns,
Nor counts his day Of toiling through
TIL he's done all that he can do,
His strength is not of muscle bred,
But Of the heart and Of the head.
The man who would the top attain,
Must demonstrate he has a brain.
