A group of newspaper men sat around the big desk after the night's work was done. It was in the days whi r “trust busting” was at its height and one combination after another was being unscram bled by the passage of laws and the prosecution of dissolution suits. The general opinion was that American industry was henceforth to proceed free from the domination of centralized aggregations of capital. Prices were to be lower, and anyone who wished to establish a small factory would be able to do so without fear of unfair competition. The night editor, however, expressed a doubt which now seems to have been prophetic. “They may succeed in breaking up the trusts,” he said, “hut there will be something bigger to take their place.” Giving his post-midnight imagination free play, he sketched a meeting of captains of industry and finance whom, he declared, even at that hour might he sitting around a table planning for the nameless successor to the trusts. Planned or unplanned, whether from the con scious will of little groups of men or as the result of the immutable working of economic forces, in almost every line of business the trend has been in the direction of larger and larger units. The sen ate committee investigating the oil industry now reports that by “methods more subtle” than before the legal dissolution of the Standard Oil company, a condition has arisen by which “in some respects the industry as a wh8te(>as well as the public, are more completely at the mercy of the Standard Oil interests." Prices to consumers, prices to producers and prices to refinersj ary declared to be fixed, not by comfiktition, but by reciprocal agreements. The in vestigators declare that a price of $1 a gallon for gasoline is possible within a few years if manipula tions are allowed to continue. Various suggestions are made for stricter government regulation, with monthly reports to a special government bureau, are among the official recommendations. Railroad rate discriminations and the private control of pipe lines are among the reasons assigned for lack of competition in tfie oil business. Faith in the power of regulation is not shared by the public. How to force corporations to com pete against their will is a matter that has never been satisfactorily settled. Concerning the desir ability of competition there is general public agree ment, but it sometimes appears that neither the big nor the little .fellows in business are keen for it. From their standpoint it is easier and safer to divide the spoils in advance rather than fight for them. The textbooks declare that competition is the life of trade, but in many industries there is scarcely a semblance of it. Trade continues, and the consum ers pay the bills. £ PLAV-ACTING AND THE PULPIT. One of the gTeat bright lights in the news col umns recently was the story of Fred Stone’s con version. In itself this is not such a noteworthy event, for other actors have been professing Chris tians, devout and worthy members of the- church. What is deserving of attention is that it brings the pulpit to take a new view of the stage. This is ex pressed by Rev. Jo W. G. Fast, who said to his con gregation, on Sunday: "We will never come to the point where the stage can tie obi iterate*!. That will never do. yul we must strive to <'hristianizetit. We all have the dramatic instinct in our make up which Is God given. We see this in the child at play- If this is suppressed In tho child we ruin him physically, mentally and spiritually. So I say. let Fred Stone stay right there an the stage and do a great work In Christianizing it. Too many such men when converted to Christianity quit thetr occupations and become cheap preachers.” Plenty of actors have come from the ranks of the ministry, and some have $one the other way and made right good ministers. "Billy” Sunday was a hang-up baseball player, and who will say he is not also a bang-up actor as well a* a powerful preacher? The stage needs the pulpit, and the pul pit can profit by having the support of the stag6. What we like about Dr. Fast’s sermon is his reference to another Christ. . "We do not need one,” he says, “for we have not used the one we have.” A little more Christ and a little lestf of creed in Christianity will do everybody a lot of good and no one any harm. OMAHA LOSES A FRIEND. To build up a great industry is an achievement, but Arthur Crittenden Smith did more than th: . The death of this public spirited citizen is a greater loss because of the contribution of his time and ef fort to community uffairs outside of his business. Although he accomplished much through his manu facturing and merchandising ability to make Omah| a market center for the middlewest, yet it is for more intimate services than this that he will be best remembered. Scrupulous regard for any sort of an obligation v.as characteristic of the man. This extended not only to bis business relations, but to all phases of community life. Up to his very last days Mr Smith was active in the campaign to endow Brownell Hall. Always he had spent freely of Ms time, interest and fortune in civic causes. The obligation of public service he felt ns keenly as any private or business contract. In his time he led an innumerable number of drives for all sorts of good causes. When Miss Anne Morgan came to Omaha in behalf of devasta ted France, it was he who introduced her to the people of Omaha. In the Good Will campaign by ^vhich The Omaha Bee raised a large fund for re construction work, he served as chairman. To his Inendlv mind no interest was foreign. It would surprise many Omahuns to know how many of the girls at work in his factories felt in iimately acquainted with him because of his simple and democratic ways. It sometimes happens that a man may be a success in business and a failure ns n citizen. Not so with Arthur ('. Smith he wiu a friend of Omaha. GIRL BEHIND THE TYPEWRITER. Is the state of Nebraska to be considered as a I kind and considerate employer, or will the people be satisfied with any old sort of service? When Andrew Jackson came into the presidency, almost a century ago, he was responsible for a ! general cleaning out of federal" employes, but it is recorded of him that not one who honestly worked, looking after the interests of the government and . attending to his duties, lost a job. “Old Hickory” J was not a civil service reformer, but he knew that efficiency came before politics, and that the gov I ernment needed good men. In federal administration civil service rules j apply, and employes are selected for their fitness and advanced on merit as well as seniority. Private ! business is conducted along much the same lines. I Every manager of a great enterprise tries to build 1 up a staff on whose zeal and loyalty he can rely, and those under him go ahead about their tasks with the assurance that their employment is steady as long as they fill the bill. Under no other system can a successful organization of any kind be de veloped, while the bugbear of '‘labor turnover” is being hunted down by far-seeing employers, who recognize it as one of their greatest items of over | head expense. In Nebraska a semblance of civil service was | being developed, and promised to grow into some l thing like a definite institution. Men and women 1 employed in the state institutions and offices as.ac ; countants, stenographers, copyists, and the like, j were coming to understand that their positions were I beyond the uncertainties of politics, and that ad vancement depended on capacity to do the work at which they were engaged rather than what is vaguely conveyed by political influence. If the plan proposed by Governor Bryan is 1 adopted, all this will be changed. Under his pro | posal, all these employes will he at the mercy of the i governor.* He proposes to have the right to em ploy or dismiss from service any head of depart ment, and this carries with it similar power over i anyone under any head of department. How will this affect these employes, whose work is clerical only? Are they not entitled to some con | sideration? Nebraska's business is the biggest in the state. ■ It amounts to the collection and expenditure of $10, j 000,000 a year, in round numbers. Good judgment and common sense alike suggest that the employes of the state be made secure in their employment, no matter what their political leanings may be. If the payroll is overcrowded, get rid of the excess, ! but let those who stay do so with the assurance that they are secure in their employment as long as their work is well done. BOTTOM GETTING NEARER TOP. The president has signed the farm credit bill and~has appointed a board«to operate the new banks thus created. On the board is Merton L. Corey of Omaha, whose connection with the farm land bank has given him close familiarity with the problem of agriculture. George R. Cooksie of the War Finance j corporation says that of the $12,000,000 advanced to farmers in Nebraska $8,000,000 has ben repaid. Significance attaches to these separate items of news. Nebraska farmers still are in the hole, but the hole is not nearly so deep as it was. Better farm prices, lower freight rates, cheaper money, all have combined to bring the bottom of that hole much nearer the top. The fanner is not a great deal different from most business men. If he has any peculiar qaality, it is that of courage that leads him to fight on when hope seems lost. It is just that quality that has saved £he farmer, the great industry of American agrieijlture, in the rerent grave crisis. A lot of wise ones have grinned 1 and chaffed the farmer about borrowing enough money to get out of debt, and all that sort of thing. What the farmer has been most deeply in terested in is getting prices for his crops that would I pay for raising them, and securing capital to carry cn his business on such terms as did not spell abso lute bankruptcy. Under the farm credit law, the funds for or i derly marketing will be available. This in turn will 1 help bring about the greater adjustment between .selling price and cost of production. The farmer ; is st 11 deeply in debt, but he has his courage, and . is going to pay off the mortgage, save the old farm, leed the world, and hold the balance of power in American politics.

Fremont, Neb.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: How about "knick ers,” have they come to stay? This is a pertinent question, as the num ber of women appearing in this cos tume is constantly increasing. Three years ago, before "knickers” had become so common on our golf courses »nd in our touring cars. I was standing on the platform of the etation at Clalrmont, Wyo, when a lady alighted from the train dressed in a suit of gray Scotch tweed "knickers.” The suit was composed of broad-legged trousers, a half-length Coat, a Jaunty hat of the same ma terial and a tan silk waist. She naturally attracted my attention and 1 observed her somewhat closely as she- passed. The Impression made upon mo was that she was modpstly, neatly and comfortably attired and, as 1 have Reen many other ladies In similar costumes since, m.v impres sion then stUI remains unchanged. Compared fo other modem costumes for women. 1 am for "knickers” first, last and all the time. The mother who holds up her hands in "holy, horror" at the thought of her growing daughter wearing "knick ers" simply shows her lack of knowl edge of all the related facts. I would like to see every girl In America be tween the ages of 12 and 25 clad In "knickers.’1 The facts are that the modern dress of tho young lady and growing glil has reached a point where it not only tloes not afford protection to the wearer, but, on the other hand. Is a constant invitation to vulgar thoughts upon the part of men so In ■ lined; "knickers" would do away with all this and furnish a proper protec tion for the modesty and coming wo ,manhood of our growing girls. The "knickers" will stay and be come more popular, because they ar* more modest and in most Instances more becoming than other forms of modern dress for women. Not only this, hut they are more comfortable, more serviceable, more healthful and are more dressy. Dresses are too short or too long, too full or too nar row. The life Is pestered out of the average woman keeping up with the ■ hanging styles, but if she has a few suits of tailored "knickers," like her ' liege lord. ’ she knows when she has one of them on that she Is well dressed and,'In addition, she has the satisfaction of comfort, convenience and modesty. Why should we make such a fuss al>out ‘ knickers" when the prevailing , style of woman's dress Is only a few e.-nturies old’’ f!o among all the primi tive tribes of the earth and you will , find that the men and women dre«s very much alike. I say, let our wo men have the freedom, comfort and modesty that belongs to them through i wearing "knickers" if they want to. _ O. O. Can a Bachelor Succeed? A. nR worth.

Neihardt’s Poetry From lbs Nebraska City Prwsa The Omaha Bey Jr doing a service to its readers by publishing extracts ! from the r>oems of John G. N'eihardt. f Nebraska’* poet laureate. Much of Mr. N'eihardt s versa, probably, will shoot over the heads of folks who j seek sources of inspiration in the slapstick type of so-called news paper ‘'comics.’’ but a little real lit erary nourishment is also good for the soul and It would be better for this generation if It could be injected intravenously as our medical friends administer the multitude of. serums designed to bolster up a falling phy sical structure. N'eihardt has written about Nebraska and Nebraskans. He Is a careful writer, flll.-d with imagination, eager to convey hi* im pressions to the masses, and his fame ts bullded secure. l,ik* most men who have spent their lives seeking the better things among more or less sordid surroundings. In swntaot with people who did not understand and quite apt to call that Whlrh thev do not understand by any name except one that is fitting, the Nebraska poet is tietter understood abroad than at home.
