Vote of the South.

Council Bluffs.-To the Editor OF
The Omaha Bee: The present cleo
ton campaign and possibility of fail
ure to choose the president in the
electoral college, suggests also that
the country may in that case suffer
for our failure to observe the Consti-
tuition in the past and also at this
time. l refer to the 18th and 14th
amendments to the Constitution,
which provide that for disfranchise-
ment of any part Of the electorate in
any state the representation in con-
eress shall be proportionately re-
duccd.
Those amendments are violated
openly by every member of congress,
and that body is to the extent there
of in fact an unlawful assemblage and
has been for many years. We hear
much about the 18th amendment. and
we need to remember that it has not
one whit more importance, force or
validity. than have the 18th and 14th,
to citizens who are in fact law
abiding.
The republican national platform
adopted In the year 1900 promised to
follow the fundamental law therein
contained and to reduce the repre-
sentation from the southern states in
proportion to disfranchised voters, in
the new apportionment to be made fol
lowing the census of 1900. Had this
been done as it should. the southern
states would now have 90 votes in
the electoral college instead of APP
proXimately 160, now wrongfully al
lowed to them, and the menace of the
election going to the house of rep
resentatves would not threaten the
nation. and our safety would be guar
anteed under Mr.. Coolidge for the
next four years beyond question
believe it Is certain in any case. but
how much better it would be II the
law had been observed.
Mr.. Mckinley. at the time men
toned, had the hope that 1t was pos
slble, following the Spanish war; TO
break up the political solid south.
and for this reason he urgently re-
puested congress to suspend the ac-
ton. which was their duty under the
fundamental law. Congress was ready
to act. and that was the golden op-
nortunitv, but it was thrown away.
and with this action a long train of
evils have followed.
Thereby the blight of Wilson's sec
ond administration, and the course
and cost of the late war were made
possible for him to force upon the
nation. and which would have been
spared US but for his whitening touch
on all that was best in American
ideals, honesty and true patriotism.
If the present election should be
lost 10 the republicans it will be for
the failure above indicated and the
weakness displayed when a plain duty
called for courage. All legislative ac-
ton in congress since has been blight
cd by this precedent. and the oppor-
tunity may IL seems. never again
come in which to make right that
stupendous and long-continued injus-
tice of southern sfrranchisement.

Suggestions for New Laws.
Omaha-To the Editor of The Oma-
ha Bee: | am especially interested in
the following subjects, which ought to
get the attention of the next legls-
lature at Lincoln:
First, the securing of a more uni
versal application of Sunday as a
day of rest for industrial workers.
| find in my community so many
families where the father has to be
at his job seven days a week, and
where, consequently, his life is little
less than that of a slave. | am con-
vinced that il factories and shops
only had to, a way could be found
in the big majority Of cases to secure
to every workingman one day OF rest
out of seven and to have this day
fall at least onethird of the time on
a Sunday.
Second, the establishment OF some
kind of a minimum wage law for wom-
en- and girls. 1t is not fair. to the
working girls that have 10 live off
their earnings, that they have to
stand the competition of girls whose
fathers are satisfied IL the daughter
earns enough pin money to buy her
rouge, her lipstick and her more or
less permanent wave. Any store that
pays an able. bodied girl of 16 and
over less than 1t costs to decently
elothe, feed and house her, is con-
Quoting business on an unwholesome
basis.
Third, a change In our criminal
code, to bring about a more just sys-
tenn OF punishment and correction.
Now the little thief is hit with a club,
the big thief is touched with a feather
duster.
Fourth, a change in the teaching
program of the public schools which
will make 1t possible, without infring-
ing on absolute religious liberty. to
ineulcate into the school children in
their course at school that reverence
toward God and His laws an essential
and most important part of normal
life.

To the Man Who Never Heard of
You, You Do Not Exist.

Right now, as you read this, you
may be sitting within few feet OF
other men. If these men don't
know who you are, you mean no
more to them than shadow.
They might recognize the news
paper you hold in your hand, but
you are merely something not to
be stepped on. You have no part
in their world.
The world is too big place for
most of us really to live in. So
each person lives in a little world
of his own-a world peopled with
his family and friends and
supplied with such devices as he
has seen and heard of, and may
some day use.
Our friends are simply those
whose markings we recognize, and
whose characteristics we know.
This rule of acquaintance applies
to goods as we'll as to people. We
buy the article or the package or
the brand that we are familiar with
because we know it--just as we
nod and smile to the men and
women we know, aud ignore the
strangers.
The strangers may have better
qualities than those we know, but
that makes no difference.
1t is the same way with mer.
chandise.
1t has become the habit of the
American people to consider adver-
tlsing the proper ana natural way
for the maker of an article to intro
duce it to their acquaintance and
keep it there.
Advertising or not is not merely
question of selling goods or not;

beings know the thing you make

time be able to use it.
