STATEHOOD FOR NEW MEXICO"'
We favor the Immediate admission of the territories of New Mexico and
Arizona an separate states In the Union. Republican National Platform.
eJAe Bryan Ken, Roost
Who broke the lock on the hon house door?
Once again Bryan comes to the front with the statement that his policies
Dave been stolen.
This time he accuses Taft of an attempt to get away with the entire
Democratic platform, and cites Taffs speech of acceptance as proof thereof.
It Is still fresh in the public mind that Bryan acused Roosevelt of steal
ing his policies and putting some of them Into effect.
Prior to that during a campaign, he accused the entire Republican party
Of stealing his thunder.
Words can not express the sympathy due Bryan upon this occasion. Aft
er years of thinking, which has produced a bald spot on his crown and a
growing circulation for the Commoner, Bryan says he has evolved a set of
policies which have been bodily carried away by his political opponents,
leaving him nothing on which to stand.
Nothing better illustrates the absolute weakness of the Nebraskan In
Attempting to pick holes In the Republican platform and In the policies
which Mr. Tatt has outlined in his speech of acceptance than this statement
that the Bryan policies have again been stolen.
Bryan should by all means devote a little of his gray matter to working
vp some syntem whereby his policies can be protected. He might have
trtem copyrighted, he might employ a detective to carry them for him; he
might put them In the refrigerator with the cold ham and the milk bottle, or
lie might Bew them up in the lining of his undershirt. But by all means,
those policies ought to be protected.
This makes at least the third occasion upon which they have been boldly
tolen, according to Mr. Bryan, and the time Is ripe for action.
Once was bad enough, twice was worse, but the third time is really un
bearable. However. Mr. Brvan Is ciulte adept In Inventing policies, so it Is likely
that he will not suffer severely nor long, from his present beggared position.
Very probably he still has a few old ones left about the house some
where. True they may be somewhat ragged and fruyed, but with a little
burnishing they might be made to do.
Take for instance that good old sixteen to one. The Citiaen Is not sure
tut It believes at last reports that policy was still In Mr. Bryan's possession.
While assuredly it is not ail that it should be for the present emergency,
till It would be absolutely safe from theft and Mr. Bryan might use It for
the time being.
It is quite distinctive, very good as an advertising medium and leaves
considerable room for oratory.
Whatever policies Mr. Bryan might have would not materially change
the result of the November election, so it can matter little in the long run to
the Nebraskan.
By the time the next four years roll around, there is no doubt but that
the versatility of Mr. Bryan will .have produced another unique set of poli
cies and It is then that the hen house door should be securely locked and
some one employed to mount guard with a shotgun.
Hut under present conditions, there seems to be no remedy at hand and
Mr. Brvan will Just have to make the best of it.
However, as a suggestion, Mr.
injured feelings and snoop about a bit.
Mayhap he might be able to swipe something from Brother Taft whicj
would be of material benetit to him.
At aU events it could do him no harm to get out into the open and nnrf
out what the American public really wants and embody those needs In his
platform and speech of acceptance.
In that event, there would be no danger of any one robbing the hen
roost and he might stand some show of being president some day.
Perhaps Taft may be naughty but the public Just now is of the opinion
that he will do, which is more, much more, than it accedes to William J.

HALF MILLION
FOR ZEPPELIN
German Aeronaut Gets Blg
Sum American Will Receive
Only S6.750
Washington, July 30. If Captain
Thomas S. Baldwin succeeds In ful
filling the requirements of the gov
ernment in the trial fights of his mil
itary dirigible at Fort Myer he will
receive $6,750. Count Zeppelin will
receive one lutlf million dollars from
the German government if "all the
requirements ore fulfilled by his air
ship. The latter machine is twenty
five times as large as Captain Bald
win's dirigible.
Vet Captain Baldwin contends that
in the aeronaut which he has built
for the army he has Incorporated new
ideas which will be eventually adopt
ed by other nations in the construc
tion of dirigibles. These new fea
tures are embodied in the ags envel
oep of Captain Baldwin's machine.

By his own process of vulcanizing

has made a material Unit will stand '
a strain of ninety-five pounds to the
inch strip and Is not uffected by eith

is practically no elasticity to a gas
bag made of this material, thus mak
ing a rigid balloon without the use of
a frame. The rubber skin is lined on
both sides with the best Japanese silk
adding considerably to the strength
of the envelope.
Midway between the ends of the gas
bag, which is slightly more than 90
feet long, is a balloon net twenty-five
feet long, into which air can be
pumped to counterbalance the altera
tions in bulk due to changes in at
mosphere pressure or contraction of
the gas due to heat or cold. A "wid
ow" permits the aeronnut to look
within the gas envelope.
The car or framework of Captain
Baldwin's airship is suspended from
the envelope hy nienns of a squnre

vas casing to which the car Is sus
pended, while Count Zeppelin hns an

DAILY SHORT STOKltS
THE LIGHTS THAT PALED.
By Stuart B. t'tone,
A dozen engine bells ding-donged
ill the great shed.
In the last of the crowd came
Arthur Windom, the clubman, and
lltt.e Minna Bell of the h.ll country,
.uiiiiirt had a very pretty pink in her
cheeks und the glint of her hair and
eyes were big brown things that seem
iil always afraid. It was the pink
and the glint and the look of fright
that had captured Arthur Windom.
The naturalness of the Minna of the
hiils had done whut the powder and
the rouge of the ladica of the town
had never done for the clubman. And
now ho held her close as they brushed
through the throng of bankers and
married women and tramps, past the
lnqu.riiig gateman and to the warm
gloomy precincts of the qur Genevra
of the Yellow Meteor on track 2S.
Here they stowed their wonder pack
ages from the 8-cent counters und
Minna of the hiils uighed long and
deep. For the iron prow of No. Sas
there in the 10-acre shed pointed
homeward to the cool, green hills and
the cows and the corn.
The city v,a not to the liking of
the hill girl. The lights were pretty
and of many pleasing colors, but
there were too many of them. The
buildings were grand and colossal,
but Minna cured more for a weather
bourded place she knew in the Kosh
Konongd. The tow n was a glare and
a glitter and a dazzle, of course, but
there was too much of it all, and Min
na nlghed again for the click of the
reaper in the fields of waving wheat.
Alone umong the things of the tow n
the man by lur side had really ap
pealed to her. Ho had appreciated
her, hud made her feel sure of her
self. And she hud thought that with
him she might in time care for the
jangling mess of wheels and bells and
whistles.
The Meteor flew past a labyrinth
of gas tanks and smokestacks into
the greenness of the suburbs and Ar
thur Windom leaned over, whisper
ing: "You will be very happy when
you return to me. We will be mar
ried In Grace church and 1 wi.l make
you a queen."
And .Minna of the hills sighed
with the ba.it little wonderment as
to what Hud Wllkins would think
if he could see her now.
Two hundred miies of town and
country Hashed by and Minna grew
restless. Putnam ville was the next
station and the train might not slop,
or it might not wait for her, or a
thousand direful things might hap
pen. .Minna picked up the bisque doll
she had bought for the baby for the
eleventh time, und when the Meteor
came to u standstill she hardly heard
the low murmuring of Arthur Win
dom: Write to nie every day dear."
For there were Uncle Silas and Aunt
Sophia und the twliuj and the baby
and Bud.
Minna climbed into the rickety
spi.ng wagon and Silos Anderson, Jus
tice of the peace in Purdy township,
sa d: " G.d app. you Baldy!' and
the bay span broke Into a canter. The
twins had invaded their popcorn und
Aunt Sophia was crying and luughing
while 1 ml did nothing but sture at
the Yellow Meteor carrying Arthur
Windom into the boundless weal.
There came the whistle of tf'Jit in the
distance and Minna sighed once more
this time for Arthur Windom, club
man, for h's was the life that seemed
fur away, here in the dust of Milltown
big road.
"tied app, Baldy!" said Esquire
Anderson once more, and they climb
ed the rocky hill on the other side of
Bateman's
It was an hour later that Bud
Wllkins tirst found hl tongue. The
crowd was pealing apples, out Minna
sat without on the low front porch
In revery.
"City's a mighty fine place I reckon,
Minna ," he ventured, with little hope.
Minna shook the gllnt-of-gold head.
" 'Tulnt half as fine as dow n here In
the sticks. Bud."
And Bud handed Minna the biggest
reddest apple of all. It was the token
of the doom of Windom, the clubman.
