A resolution adopted by the house at Lincoln on Thursday ought to lead to a settlement of one im portant point that is in dispute. When Governor McKelvie retired from office, he declared that for the first time in the history of the state one governor turned the affairs over to his successor with no de ficiency existing in the funds of any department. On taking office. Governor Bryan declared that a deficit in the budget existed to the extent of $2,225,000. This is too large an item to be passed over light ly, and the house has requested the governor to sub mit proofs of his assertion. Governor Bryan should respond without delay to the resolution. If he is able to make good on his statement, it will mean a serious reflection on his predecessor; if he does not make good, it will be accepted by the people that the statement was part of the general partisan campaign of excuses in advance for inability to re deem certain loosely made pre election pledges. If only a matter of bookkeeping is involved, it is well to know that. A technical deficiency can easily be created by an expert accountant, who may transfer figures from one column to another, pro ducing a great exhibit of error, when another will transpose the same figures and show that all is correct. The people, however,- want no such jug glery; public accounts ought not to he subject to j the ministrations of financial necromancers. Facts, and facts only, are what the people demand in the ! statements of public finances. Governor Bryan is justified in endeavoring to ef- | feet reasonable economy in the administration of j state affairs. It is expected that he will be very ; ■watchful and alert at all times, especially when the j spending of money is concerned. This is exacted fhopi any governor, and waste or extravagance is j always subject to reproval. But Governor Bryan has no right to create a false impression with re gard to his predecessor's administration in order to prepare the way for an excuse for his own. The house resolution is on the right line. Bring out all the facts, that no doubt will linger as to whether the McKelvey budget balances, or whether it is two and a quarter millions to the bad. DANGER IN CARELESS WORDS. “If you or any other officer ever hits me on the • Lead in an attempt to arrest me, I’ll shoot.’’ This statement is credited to an Omaha city com missioner, uttered in course of the hearing of a po- 1 1 iceman on trial for abusing two men whom he ar- i retted. The Omaha Bee is loath to believe that the commissioner is correctly quoted. It is not easy to think that a man in such high office is so devoid „o^ balance. i ‘ i Such an expression might be expected from ope ..! accustomed to the full exercise of self restraint’"^ ilnfcumbent on one experienced and tried in public ilife. The danger is too apparent when public officers .talk after that fashion. It is.evidence of the mis taken spirit that prompts the policeman to use his -club before he has exhausted other methods. Quite recently a man was retired from the • Omaha police force at the end of 21 years of ser ‘.vice, who had never in all that time struck a prisoner, ^even with his open hand. Yet his record was long iand honorable. He had been in many tight places, had made many important arrests, and had handled some pretty tough prisoners. In many cities police men arc trained to exercise the powers of their office and to maintain order and discipline without display *of force of any kind. Omaha might profit by adopt «ing such methods. But Omaha will not gain anything if men are even directly encouraged to resist officers in dis charge of their duty, or what seems to be their duty, ^by intemperate utterances on the part of any. If .'one man is privileged to shoot a policeman, all are. A sure way to avoid trouble with the police is • to obey the law and behave in order. Tf a policeman • does arre6t you, go with him, no matter how indig nant you may feci, and if he is wrong, it will be him who pays the penalty. AUTOMOBILES AND PROGRESS. In the current number of the Literary Digest is contained a compilation of facts and figures re gardng the automobile that is of great interest. Quoting first from an article by Mark Sullivan, who contends that some decided steps should be taken to curb the reckless driver, the compiler goes on to cite the figures furnished by Le Berne Beales, who argues that the death rate proportionate to the number of automobiles driven is on the de crease. However comforting Mr. Beales’ deductions may he. it remains true that the death rate is unneces sarily high, and it does not excuse the careless or reckless driver to cite the fact that more deaths result from whooping cough than from automobile accidents. Every effort is being made by scientific men and philanthropists to lessen the death rate from disease, and similarly we have a right to ex pect that other men will do all they can to cut down .the mortality incident to street traffic. Nebraska has the proud position, if pride may be taken in the fact, of having the lowest death rate, from this cause, her figures for 1921 being 4.4 deaths per 10,000 machines. New York has the biggest, 20.1. Another interesting discussion in the Digest has to do with the future of the automobile. Figures are cited to combat the idea that the saturation point has yet to be reached. Experts show that the machine is coming nearer and nearer within the reach of all, and that the number of family incomes that might support a car is far greater than the number of cars in use. Even the enormous output of 1922 did not suffice to fill the demand, and an .even busier year for the makers is predicted for .1923. * ■ _______ Ten days in jail has been awarded a driver who knocked down a pedestrian. Now, the court should see that he serves the sentence. It is slowly dawning upon the country that what the. farmer needs is no.t a relief, but a remedy. / COST OF CRIMINAL TRIALS. A bill sent into the house at Lincoln on Friday j opens an interesting door to debate. Boyd county was required to bear costs amounting to $5,200 | :n the prosecution of two murderers. This sum 1 puts a considerable strain on the county, and it asks 1 that it be reimbursed by the state for the expendi ture. In defense of the bill it is set up that the pro ceeding was for the benefit of all the state, and ' therefore the expense should be borne by the state. Some element of justice and right appears in this. Political subdivisions of the states are established, the citizens contained therein assuming certain re sponsibilities as well as enjoying certain rights and privileges. One of the obligations on such subdi visions is that of maintaining order and seeing that 1 laws are obeyed. This does not require argument. Murder is something that can not be anticipated by the autnorities, and no precaution can be taken i against such crime. In the Boyd county case the ! episode was entirely fortuitous. The victim and the slayers were sojourners, passing on their way across the country, when it occurred to the guilty pair to murder their companion, to possess them selves of his property. That sort of thing may happen in any county. To Boyd county it is serious, because the funds of the county are not large, and the resources are limited. Yet the request for repayment ought to rest on a broader foundation. Is there no other plea that may be made to support the proposal? Will justice suffer if the cost of such trials, no matter in what county, be defrayed from the general fund of the state, and the state be required to take part in all such prosecutions? LAW ENFORCEMENT. From all over the land arises the insistent de mand for better law enforcement—and we go right ahead .exacting more laws to be violated with im punity, thereby creating a greater disregard for law. Why should we expect any widespread respect for the prohibitory laws when the net spread catches the ‘‘little fellows” but allows the men who enacted the laws violate them with impunity within the very hall of state and national legislation? What sort of respect do we create for law when we see the petty thief sent over the road for the law’s limit, j while the crooked financier, the stock gambler and the fake stock swindler, caught in the act, escape with the minimum sentence and soon emerge on ' parole? ‘‘The law condemns the man or woman Wbo stoals a goose from off the common; But turns the greater rascal loose Who steals the common from the goose.” Growing interference with fundamental indi vidual fights; fads and “isms” of fanatics crystallized into legislative enactment; a “be it enacted” hooked to the puritanical pretenses of people who deem themselves so pure that to them everything that is must perforce be rotten—and still we wonder at the increasing menace of disrespect for laws. Really now, it would be laughable were it not so very serious. IT WAS THE SENATES BUSY DAY. A portion of the Friday session of the senate was devoted to clearing up the muss made during the deliberations on Thursday. The farm credits measure was up for consideration, and senators from all parts of the country vied with one another in eager rivalry as to which is the greatest friend of the farmer. Lenroot of Wisconsin and Brook hart of Ipwa got the greatest amount of first page Spate,.because their exchange of personal views re garding one another made the best reading. Sena tor Heflin of Alabama got the greatest amount of attention from the senate, because he went a little too far beyond the limits of senatorial dignity. Be cause of his pointed allusions to Senator Wads worth of New York, he was twice formally rebuked by the senate. Not in a long while has a senator won this dis tinction. Heflin now fills a position in the greatest deliberative body in the world somewhat to that he attained when a member of the house of repre sentatives. That Messrs. Lenroot and Brookhart have relieved their minds concerning one another may comfort the senate, hut how does such action help along with the farm credit bill? This far away from Washington it seems as if the short time now remaining for the Sixty-seventh congress might he more profitably devoted to the transaction of business. The senators will have all next sum mer to call one another names. Absalom may have been the first of the line, but Nebraskans have already learned that he was not the last one to “steal the hearts of the men of Israel” by making rosy promises of what he would do for them "if only he were made a judge of the land.” It is not at all difficult to set the date when re lief from the tax burden will be experienced. It will be when the taxpayers fully realize that they can not eat their cake and have it. Making three eggs grow where only two grew before would also help a lot in solving the riddle of existence. But will the people be willing to weigh Hays on the Fairbanks scales? Italian Women Real Rulers The homemakers of Italy are the real power behind the active workers for a greater state, fays Countess Irene di Roliilant in an article called "The Hands That Rule Italy," which appears in the February issue of ! Our World. "The mother's influence over children and husband | in Italy has been i rkably fplt in these recent years j of political strife, > ountesa di Robilant, who is as ! sociate manager of the Italy-America society of New ; York City, says. "In the enormous majority the life and mission of | the Italian woman is within the homo. Marriage. motherhood are the general rules, followed by natural i inclination and not, as many think, that the women have little else to do. To begin with. Italy lias more men than women, so that it is comparatively easy for | the latter to choose their partners. "If from a legislative point of view’ the father la the head of the family and gives his name, nationality and religion to the children, and if the woman con sents to the old-fashioned formula: ‘To love, honor and obey.’ practically we see her reign supreme in the i Italian home. The household economy and the car* of the children, including their education, falls to the woman-6 lot. In rase of the father's death she is the sole guardian of the children all through their minor ity and the trustee of that part of the family fortune which cannot be legally tied up or bequeathed away from them. "Before the war the married woman could not dis j pose of her property without her husband's consent. S The legislation has been modified so that the woman's fortune is only tied for the purt given in dowry which is 1 supposed to assure tile stability of the home. "What has born further donated. Inherited c ■-anted hv her, I escapes matrimonial control. “From State and Nation” —Editorials from Other ISetcspapers— Country Churches. From Harrison's Home Farmer. | Something ha? generally gone wrong 1 with the country churche?. A few of I them flourish with good congrega ! tions. it is said, but the vast majority ! of them are troubled with vacant pews when Sunday comes. We have seen some of these huldings vacated and left alone to vandals who vent ruina tion on them after nightfall. If a country church is to be treated with the best respect by its maintainers it should be given steel bars like prison gratings over the windows, and the door should be of steel plate so strongly hung that no vandal could hatter it down without rousing the i whole neighborhood, who might then ! accomplish his capture. The little churches in the main are vacant. There is a shortage of min isters, it is claimed, and therein, it is pointed out, lies tho rea*in why coun try church decline, hut this Is a frail excuse. Why should we not all be ministers of the gospel? Could not even the worst of us lie so spiritual minded that we could read the Bible and offer up our prayer? There are finer sermons in the Great Book than ever ordinary man preached, and the big majority of our young people are ignorant of them. They might love to hear these sermons reproduced by a good reader in their own neighbor hood. The downward trend of the country church is not because of the lack of ministers. It is due to our own fall ing oft in spirituality. Wherever we become again so true to our God that, we will attend church only to worship Him, and not merely to be sociable after the service is over, or to make paramount the paltry event of some box social or lee cream festi val. the country church will come liack. and we will not care so much whether or not we have hired a min ister. for we will find all of the good ly teachings in the Bible that the old world needs. We knew an old grandfather who was a preacher, lie was a blacksmith also. He was as good at the profes sion as he was at tile trade, and while his arm beat out the red-hot iron, his mind was constructing his sermon for the following Sunday. While our feet walk our furrows our minds roam at will .and our minds usually fall into tho channels of business. If we would permit them to dwell much on the spiritual things as we follow- the plow, before we knew it we would be able to preach better sermons than the best of college youths, too many of whom have already practiced upon country congregations. A Rank Injustice. From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. There is something supremely coh temptible about the decision of the house of representatives in depriving Maj. Gen. Janus G. Harbord of the r< tired pay always granted retiring officers because he is now president of the Radio Corporation of America. Tho house is attempting to justify itself by stating that General Har bord has been so employed because the radio concern hopes he can se cure for it more government business than the company could otherwise hope to secure. As Secretary of Wap Weeks bluntly summarizes and characterizes the house decision: . This is an insult to General Harbord and to the government It self." Analyzed, the house action is a slur at the honesty of the government. The further inference js that one of tho most distinguished American sol diers would stoop to use his influence to get business against the best in terests of the nation he has served so long and sc- well. General Harbord is no desk soldier. Daily Prayer Pray and make supplication.— II Chr. 6:24. O Lord Our God, wo thank Thee for Thy Fatherhood, and that Thou hast revealed Thyself unto ns through Jesus Christ, Thv Son, Who is our Savior. We thank Thee for Thy lov ing rare of us through another day— for life and health and all the com forts we enjoy. Bless us as parents and children. Keep us from sinning against Thee. Help us to be faithful in our work, thoughtful of eaeli other, kind and considerate and helpful to all. Watch over us through the night. If it please Thee, give us sleep, and bring us in safety and comfort to another day. May every day bring us a more perfect trust in Thee, so that with our days wo may learn how better to walk in Thy ways, and to do Thy Holy Will, and to become more like Him Who has taught us to pray, saying: "Our Father Who are in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy King dom come. Thy will he done in earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors: and lead us not into temptation, but de liver us from evil, for Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory forever."

Alexander, a Chicago) business man, told hhe members of ; the Western Golf association at Chi- | cage the other day that the man who i plays golf is worth at least $500 n j year more to Ills employer than the man who does not because, according to Mr. Alexander, the golfer acquires on the links qualities worth this sum In the business field. These qualities Mr. Alexander enumerated ns 'integ rity, generosity and urbanity." Mr. Alexander, we believe, is a gen tleman who has attained something like a par game, lie can and does frequently go out and shoot 75. No doubt, Mr. Alexander watches his j drives ride to glory and his ap- | proaches roll up to the pin. he ex- i periences the delightful urbanity to | which lie alludes. But how about the dub whose drives turns out to be one of Joe Kirkwood's Sunday morning affairs, whose approches land in the | sand traps instead of on the green,; nnd whose putts triekle away from , the pin? Is urbanity the proper word ; to characterize the dub's feelings? Is i there anything urbane about him? I On the contrary, doesn’t he feel like | a mule skinner? Doesn't his blood , pressure rise with the temperature j of his vocabulary? Is he worth as [ much as $500 on the hoof to himself nr anybody else? Mr. Alexander's game.

You aro not satisfied, but you can not tell wherein you fail to measure up. Too selfish, if the truth were known —too “self-centered"—that is it? How much have you ever done for anyone exeept those you were in duty i bound to serve? A few little acts, which perhaps re ciuired little effort or a small finan cial outlay. But what real sacrifice have you ever made that another might be hap pier? At the expense of discomfort to yourself you are very shy about doing anything that will extend help. Naturally when you do only those things which are easy for you to do, 1 you cannot feel any great satisfaction in your kind deeds. Is it not probable that you are los ing much of the sweetness of life be- • cause you are too selfish to do a real service to anybody? It is no credit to you to do only the things which please you, and only for those who are near and dear. Help others as it becomes known to you that they need help, and do not I be so careful of your own time and convenience when you lend a hand. 1 (Copyright, ]9"3.> “The People's Voice” Editorial* from reader* of The Mornlnt Bee.

Kankakee. 111.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: I say, the dope monster in the United States is growing fast. Federal authorities have fought it live yenrs and it's be yond control. Four million American men. women, boys and girls are now narcotic slaves in "The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave." One dope victim can make six others: 4,000.000 multiplied by six makes 24,000.000; 24,000,000 multiplied by six makes 144.000,000. Some of your children must help make this great number of victims. The United States—"Sweet Land of Liberty"—uses more devilish dope than all the rest of the world put to gether. Narcotic dealers "laugh and grow fat;" our citizens suffer and grow lean. Legislation and public spirit collapse. The plague of Egypt is on us. American cities have tried to kill it. But they can’t—they don't—they won't. They say, leave dope alone. That's just the trouble—the right people leave dope alone—then the wrong people get it. They’re all get ting it—"Rich man. poor man, beggar man. thief; doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief." ' More than 100,000,000 ounces of dope were smuggled into America last year. An ounce of hell for each per son in the United States. The wages of dope, are crime, immorality, degra dation, misery, torture, despair and ilea til.

Omaha.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: There is a lot of mis placed sympathy In this world and a host of misguided sympathizers. Ref erence is here made to that class of people who wail because there was no minister present at the burial of a murdered bootlegger to put him safely ovpr the River Sharon. No ab surdity is more patent than that in which the friends of any person who lias persistently lived in defiance of society, state and particularly the church, insist on dragging his corpse into the church before a minister, when no power on earth could per suade d> ceased to go there when 1 alive. Some of these people who are i so long on sympathy ought to try to ! develop a mite of discrimination. They ought to read the practical advice .Toab gave David, on the death of Absalom.
