Governor Alexander vetoed an ap-
preparation to pay the First National
Bank of Moscow some $1,000 for
money advanced the state and used in
the State University at Moscow. The
supreme court had already decided
the case, and said the state owed the
NOR ey. Governor Alexander repudi
ated this obligation and vetoed the
appropriation, passed thru the legis-
lature without one dissenting vote,
so far as we recall the record. Hav-
ing vetoed this bill; having repudi
ated an honest obligation, our Shy
lock rubbed his hands in gloe, took
another look at himself in the glass,
swelled up with his own egotism, and
with wink, told Broxon, his private
secretary, to credit Boise's One Price
Clothier with saving the state
another thousand dollars. And yet
the state owes that money to this day,
and is paying seven per cent on the
debt. That is a sample of the way
Nose Alexander has saved his myth
cal million.

BRYAN TO QUIT NEBRASKA?
Renorted He'll Move to Florida or
North Carolina.

William Jennings Byran, thrice
candidate for president, is to quit
Nebraska, according to gossip among
the Commoner's neighbors. This was
the story brought to Washington re-
Gently by Nebraskans. According TO
the story, Mr.. Bryan is to take up his
residence in either North Carolina
or Florida and make the race for
the United States senate.
1T is pretty we'll understood that
Mr.. Bryan is not going to live much
longer in Nebraska said Harry L.
Smith, of Omaha, at the Willard.
"Mrs. Bryan, it is said, recently told
friends that Fairview, the home OF
the Bryans, at Lincoln, will be re-
opened while Mr.. Bryan is partlc1-
pating in the campaign, and that al
ter the campaign it will be closed,
perhaps forever. Friends of the Bry-
ans declare they purpose moving to
North Carolina, where Mr.. Bryan has
an estate at Asheville, and that he
aspires to be elected to the United
States senate from that State. Bry-
an owns a farm in Texas, one in
Florida and one in North Carolina,
as we'll as his home in Nebraska.
Some years ago it was reported that
Mr.. Bryan intended to move to Texas
and run for the senate from that
State.
"The former head of the Demo-
cratic party, it is believed, will earn
estly support the president in this
campaign. His influence in Nebras-
ka is not as great as it was, though
he still has a large personal follow
ing. His defeat for delegate at large
to the recent national convention was
a blow to him, but it was we'll un-
derstood among his opponents that
it was due to his action at Baltimore
in 1912, when he bolted his instruc-
tions for Champ Clark, and Nebras-
kans will not stand for a bolter.
Then, too, he attacked the 'wets,' and
this was not popular. Altogether the
Bryan influence in Nebraska is prac-
tically gone.
"Mr. Bryan became a resident OF
Nebraska in October, 1887. He was
not a successful lawyer, though ne
practiced in Lincoln for some time
before he was elected to congress in
1892 Washington Post.

Wilson Will Sweep Country.

'I never was a Democrat, but l
think Woodrow Wilson will sweep
the country for reelection this fall"
This is the remark of ex-Gov. St.
John, of Kansas, who is not Demo-
crat. He went on to explain: 81 am
basing the assertion on the attitude
of the people in Western Kansas.
While l was in that part Of the State
during my recent ninety days tour,
l took occasion to sound out my diff
ferent audiences on the candidates
then looming most largely in the
public eye. Successive references to
Hughes, Roosevelt and Wilson al
ways brought the most applause for
Wilson. Wilson's Mexican policy, for
which he has been so bitterly attack
ed, is, in my opinion, an element of
strength. I am not capable of criti-
cising the governments policy. The
old plan of tying two fighting tom
cats tails together, throwing them
over a clothes line and letting them
fight it out, seems to apply forcibly
to the situation in Mexico. But Mexi-
co is no scrub as it was in 1S47. 1t
has fourteen millions of people and
an advanced civilization in many re
spects. To whip Mexico into line, as
some demand, would be job, neces-
stating at least two years time, the
expenditure of billions of dollars and
probably the lives of 100000 men.
In addition, as an item of expense,
would be the formation of great
pension roll.
t'What would we gain by such a
war? We don't want that territory.
The whole proposition is absurd.
Taking it as whole, we never have
had a president more level-headed
than Woodrow Wilson. n.''-Orange-
burg Times and Democrat.

TAGGING FOR WHOOPING COUGH.
Babies With Disease Should Thus Be
Marked, Says Physician.

Tag your baby if it has Whooplng
cough; such a measure will go a long
way toward retarding the spread of
the disease. This is the advice of
several local physicians.
A small sign with the words
"whooping cough" placed on the
baby's carriage or attached to the
childs dress would be a means of
notifying other persons or children
that they should not go too near the
child affected, it is suggested.
The physicians advocating the tag
ging of the children do not urge
quarantine, as they declare fresh air
is best for the child when suffering
from the disease They say that the
malady has spread considerably more
this year than for many years and
declare it is due to the fact that
enough precaution is not taken.-

Inquirer.
