' s For the past two years the Vork de volving upon the county clerk has been done by bis deputy. Drawing the sal ary as, principal and doing the work by proxy is a pernicious system that should not be tolerated in public office. The Omaha Bryanlte organist rarely opens his mouth ' without putting bis foot in. This Is again strikingly shown by the caricature of. the shackled ju diciary In which the editor of The Bee Is crayoned with the" words "Hep hep" emanating from his mouth. The Canadian commissioners refuse to sign the, Alaskan, arbitration award. As they constitute a very small minority of the board, the decision will stand Just the same. All that they are succeeding in doing Is to give an Illustration of the baby act In International relations. The news Is sent all the way by cable that Andrew Carnegie has been given the freedom of the City of Waterford in Ireland. Mr. Carnegie bad previously been free with his money to give the City of Waterford a library. We be lieve the City of Waterford came out best in the exchange. Among others who nre advertised to read "carefully prepared papers" before the Nebraska school principals and su perintendents, at their annual meeting at Lincoln this week is Superintendent Fearse of the Omaha public schools, Carefully prepared by whom? By his efficient private secretary? When Omaha gets its grain market firmly established there will be an open lng (or concentrated activity. To make Omaha the distribution center for Wyo ming oil a pipe line from the Wyoming oil fields to Omaha would be worth more for Omaha's Industrial and commercial expansion and development than the Platte river canal. lor good and sufficient reasons the people of Nebraska always feel that their educational institutions are safer In the hands of republican admlnls trators than la the hands of those who go to make up the so-called fusion re form forces. The election next month Will restore republican management of the State university as sure as an elec tion Is held. The gunernatoriul candidate of the Iowa democrat Is trying hard to make 8 tarlff-for-revAjuo-ouly lttaue in the campaign In the Ilawkeye state. He will have a hard time with this self liniiosed mission, as the people of Iowa however much some of them may favor tariff revision, are firmly, committed to the protective principle nd are in no mood to take tuca wi!b democratic Uriar UaUilnt, '' " ' ' BXTRA 8t3$l0!t lALLKD. President Roosevelt bss Issued the call for an extraordinary session of the Fifty-eighth congress, to meet Novem ber 9. As now Indicated the session will be devoted wholly to the considera tion of the Cnban reciprocity treaty. This is. the reported opinion of the re publican lenders. Representative Fayne of New York, chairman of the ways and means committee and the leader on the floor of the bouse, is quoted as saying that the three weeks to be devoted to the special wsslon would be occupied in the enactment of legislation to make the Cuban treaty, operative and that there would be no time for the consideration of any other matter. This view is said to be concurred In by Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania and Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio, members of the ways and means committee and also of the committee on rules In the last congress and who will doubtless be , continued on these com mittees. The organisation of' the house Is not to take place in complete form until the convening of the regular session. After the election of Mr. Cannon as speaker the only committees necessary for the work In hand will be those of ways and means, mileage, accounts and possibly rules. The work of the ways and means committee in preparing the enabling act In regard to the reciprocity treaty will le brief and the expectation is that there will not be much delay in passing the act. It has been suggested that con sideration of the treaty may be marked by a discussion of the tariff that will hold the special session until the date for the regular, meeting of congress in December, but this Is now thought to be mprobable. Of course so far as the house is concerned the committee on rules can control the duration of de bate and It seems not to be apprehended that the Opposition to the treaty in the senate will be disposed to delay action. It has been states, apparently upon trustworthy authority, that most of those who antagonised the treaty in the last congress have withdrawn their op position. In regard to the regular session it ap pears to be certain that there will be no tariff or currency ' legislation. There is unanimity among the republicans in congress, and it Is also the view of tho adminlstralton, that the tariff should not now be disturbed, while as to the cur rency the opinion expressed by Senator Allison, that there is no present need for financial legislation is quite gen erally acquiesced in by republicans Id congress and undoubtedly Is approved by the legitimate business interests of the country. The promise is, therefore, thut the extra session and the first regu lar session of the Fifty-plgbth congress will be free from any legislation that might In the slightest degree disturb business or unsettle confidence. The purpose of the republicans is to do noth ing that could place a check Upon na tional prosperity. ......' , KSTIMA rT3 THAf JfAVT. '.. The naval estimates for the next .fis cal year, laade by the chiefs o bureaus and approved by the -secretary of the Navy, contemplate an expenditure ex ceeding by about, $23,000,000 that of the last, fiscal year. Included In the esti mates Is the sum of nearly, $20,000,000 for Increase of the navy, construction and machinery. It may be doubted whether congress will be disposed 'to vote so large an amount as $102,000,000 for naval purposes, and Indeed If a pol icy of economy and retrenchment Is seriously Intended it Is safe to say that the aggregate estimate will be mater ially cut down. This will have to be done chiefly In the estimate for naval Increase, though doubtless it will be found practicable to make reductions In other directions. " As to the largest item It Is probable that it will be cut down several mil lions of dollars, but as to this a vigorous opposition to any reduction Is to be ex pected. The administration fefels so strongly on the subject of naval in crease ' that ' undoubtedly Its Influence will be vigorously exerted to secure' all the . appropriation for this purpose which the Navy department recom mends and It is needless to say that it will have many supporters among the republicans in congress. Our naval establishment requires a good deal of money, but there are not many who will question the wisdom of maintaining It. 'to Kijrgrr canac aqitatioh. Senator Morgan of Alabama has de clared his purpose to call the attention of congress to the Isthmian canal ques tion as soon as possible. He said he did not know in what form the ques tion will be brought up. but expressed the opinion that the house is more than likely to take Initial action. As every body knows, Mr. Morgan is the fore most champion of the Nicaragua route and doubtless no one ' balled with greater satisfaction that he the failure of the treaty with Colombia. Of course he believes that It la now the duty of President Roosevelt under the authority given him by the Spooner act to at once enter into negotiations with Nicaragua aud Costa Rica and it Is to be presumed that he will endeavor to have congress request the president to do this. It 1 highly improbable that such an effort will succeed, unless it can be conclusively shown to congress that there is . no chance of entering Into a fair and satisfactory treaty with Co lombia. It must be admitted that the promise of negotiating such a treaty Is not encouraging. There is the author ity of the special commissioner of the Colombian government Just arrived In the United States that there Is practical unanimity among the people of Colon) bla against any relinquishment of soy erelgnty over the territory required by the United State, while there Is also a very general' feeling that the lndem rUy which this government has pro r Wed to pay ahould be very largely ImWesed. The commissioner says the juA'ka of ' sovereignty la one of patriotism with his people, which csn not be overcome by money or argument Here are obstacles to an agreement that may prove Insurmountable. It can be confidently assumed that our gov ernment will not pay such an Indemnity as Colombia Is disposed to ask, while the required territory must be prac tically nnder the sovereignty of the United States. There are some Influen tial men In Colombia who are favorable to the terms offered by this country and it is possible that In time some who are now in opposition will change their minds. There Is nothing now, however, to Indicate that this Is likely to happen. PL AT lira A LOS us o a AUK. The official ballot for this Judicial dis trict will contain altogether the names of nineteen candidates, of whom eleven are on the republican and democratic tickets, the remainder being labeled populists or socialists. Each of the eleven candidates is pitted against the other ten and the seven receiving the highest number of votes will be de clared elected. When the democrats adopted five re publicans as running mates for Ferguson and Page, the two lone democrats, they virtually whipsawed the candidates of their own faith. These two democrats are compelled to outrun not only the seven candidates nominated by the re publicans, but also Dickinson and Read, the two republicans picked up by their fool friends, the democratic leaders who concocted this wonderful nonpartisan Judiciary scheme. It is plain therefore that they have been playing a losing game from the outset If all the demo crats vote for Ferguson, Page, Dickin son and Read, depending on disgruntled republicans to make up the margin, they are sure to fall down because 00 per cent of the republicans who are dis posed to scratch any particular candi date may be expected to. vote for either Dickinson or Read and not for Fergu son or Page, thus leaving the two demo crats distanced and beaten by their own running mates. . . . , Any man with common political sa gacity must have foreseen Just such an outcome, but the democratic leaders in this district are stronger at playing poker than playing politics. X POST FACTO PltOTSSTS. Henry W. Yates has contributed an interesting letter to The Bee on the sub ject of the new revenue law, emphaslz- ng the position taken by the mercantile houses and business men of this city with reference to what they term 'double taxation of credits." Anyone who will give serious study to the ques tion of taxation will readily see that the complaint entered by Mr. Yates Is well founded, and that in attempting to tax credits without deduction of debits the lawmakers who framed the revenue bill violated one of -the established canons of taxation, i , - Our business men, howeverf should be reminded that they are decidedly late In entering their protests. This very question was up at Lincoln last winter before the revenue committees that hud the work of revenue law revision In hand and the arguments were, presented at that time against this species of double taxation.' One of the editors of The Bee as a member of the general committee on taxation of the National Civic fed eration drafted a section which he brought before the Joint legislative reve nue committee to provide for the unit system of valuation namely, a valua tion of the debt and the security- for the debt as one item of property at the place of location of the property. In this case. however, he stood practically alone, and his proposition, was, rejected because the lawmakers, while admitting, that It was right and Just expressed a fear that it would not be popular; ' ' 1 Where - were the - business men of Omaha when the legislature was in ses sion? Wny were they not down at Lin coln byt their representatives, backing up The . Bee's plea for more equnable taxation?, Hadfthey reinforced our ef forts at the proper time, might they not have escaped the predicament in1 which they find . themselves and . avoided the necessity of appealing to the courts to remedy a flagrant error? It may not be too lute for them to protect themselves now, but It certainly would have been much better had they taken "the stitch in time that saves nine." The Washington Post suggests Secre tary of State Hay as a running mate for President Roosevelt, giving the Dis trict of Columbia the honor of claiming him its favorite son. This raises a rather nice point of constitutional law. That the constitution makers never con templated a president or vice president balling from a territory la plain from the provision barring presidential elec tors from voting for candidates for both president and -vice president from the same state as themselves. At the same time the supreme court has since de cided that there Is a citizenship of the United States separate and" distinct from citizenship In any state, so that rest dence in a territory or in the District of Columbia would still conform ; to the constitutional requirements with respect to citizenship of the United States. The chances, however, are against any party nominating a man on a presidential ticket who does not have claims upon some state with an electoral vote worth having In the contest of the ballots. The appraisement of the Omaha water wo"ks will be resumed next week. By that time we are assured the appraisers will be able to Inspect the big maps which show the distribution system of Omaha, Florence, East Omaha, South Dundee and the Country club, with pro files of the entire 'aystem by sections, cross sections, valve boxes, etc. After the maps have been duly inspected the appraisers, we are told, will be In post tlon to proceed with their onerous tssk at $30 a day for each appraiser, and In d us time th city will be called upon to foot the bill. In due time also the city will be given an opportunity to take possession by voting from four to seven million dollars of water bonds. Rosewater is also supporting Baxter, Day and Estelle for district Judges three republican candidates who happen to find favor with the democratic non partisan masqueraders. What claims have they on democratic or Independent support that are not possessed, too, by Barnes. Sears and Sutton? Isn't the double-coder's attempt to make fish of one and fowl of another of the repub lican Judicial candidates too gauzy for anything? A Chicago evangelist claims to be shocked by Oraabd vice. An evangelist who Is not shocked by vice in every place he visits would not be a good evangelist but a Chicago evangelist who Is shocked over the depravity In Omaha reminds us of the man who does not mind the muck heap In front of his own door, but gets awfully shocked over a shovelful of dirt in his neighbor's back yard. .'

Mr. William Denton of the British firm that Is to build one of the new Cunard steamships, tells a Montreal interviewer that their tonnage Is to be 37,500. or about the same as that of Cedrio and Celtic, but that they are to be 786 feet long. The White Star monsters are but 700 feet. The length , and tonnage Indicated mean that the new Cunardera win nave a yacnt model of very slender proportions, prob ably not over 70 feet In width, which would give a length of 11.21 times their beam. Deutschland's length is 10.17 times Its beam, Oceanic's 10.36. Celtio and Cedrio are 9.33 times their beam In length. Etruria, an old-time champion, was only 8.$ times its beam. With a body more than one-seventh of a mile In length and as slender as a torpedo boat's, driven by turbine engines of a power never yet approached, the new Cunardera will give the British govern ment "a, run for Its money" which It Is pouring but so lavishly tor their construc tion.

And It shall come to pass that the police will have to abolish confetti-throwing on the occasion of public festivals In Bt. Louis; for the beginning of ruffianism and crime are already shown by the throwing of mus tard and red pepper by some on the night of the Veiled Prophet's parade, one young woman who was blinded by red pepper having just regained her eyesight to a de gree that enabled her to report the matter. In New Orleans, or In Italian cities, the throwing of confetti or sometimes flower petals never goes beyond a playful InofTen. siveness, but the rowdies of large cities In the north can never feel the relaxing band of the law In the permission of such lib erties without breaking Into the commission of cruelties and the doing of bodily Injuries. There Is aa element in all large cities that always needs the caressing lnfluenoe of the flat side of an axe, and la to be feared whenever It is not under the direct sur- vefllance of a bluecoat. In Kansas City the night of misrule" became so riotous that It had to be wholly done away with. Be ginning with confetti, It proceeded to flour, then to paint, lampblack. Ink ana nnally personal assaults. Persons coming from the theaters were attacked by gang of tow die, their clothing ruined with paint and varnish, women dresses were" torn, and the hotels were soon filled with hundreds of refugees, men and women, afraid to ven ture out to the street car a. Naturally scores of neat took place la the efforts of escorts to protect women who accompanied tbem, and it was reported that In soma eases women were knocked down by the rufftans.

BITS OF WAs-RIXGTOS LITE. Mtaor See-aes aa laeldeata Sketched a the Spot. One of the liveliest fights of the approach ing session of congress Is likely to be pulled oft on the question of restoring the canteen or post exchange. An effort will be made to attach a rider to the army ap propriation bill repenting the anti-canteen law, which was passed two years ago. The army and the administration will be ranged In favor of repeat, while the Women's Christian Temperance union will battle for the law as It stands. Kver since the law abolishing the canteen went Into effect reports have been pouring Into the War department from every garri son of United States troops In this country, aa well am In our noncontiguous possessions, all of them stating that drunkenness, crime. Insubordination and other violations of mili tary laws have Increased many fold. Every officer who has had charge of troops has officially stated that his men have become simply uncontrollable; that they have never loet an opportunity to leave their posts of duty, either with or without permission, and that they have visited low grog shops, gambling dives and other disrepu table resorts, where they almost Invariably became Intoxicated and frequently com mitted crimes ranging from larceny and fighting to murder. The record has been so uniformly . bad that administration officials have been con sidering tor a long time the advisability of making a fight for the re-establlshment of the canteen, where soldiers can drink a few glasses of beer with associates, which will prevent their desire to leave the garrison and frequent low saloons. The administration realizes that a big fight will develop from the situation. The offi cials know that the so-called temperance advocates will not surrender their "vic tory" without a struggle. They are pre pared to meet every attack with the offi cial records of the great Increase In drunk enness and other forms of . vice growing out of the soldiers' Inability to get a drink without leaving the government reserva tion. With these facts In hand the War de partment hopes to stiffen up the backs of members of congress who have been prone to listen to the requests and threats of a body of women who are totally un familiar with military affairs. The recent storm -cost the government something like $16,000 in the shape of spoiled silver and gold certificates. Bills to that amount which had been damaged by the rains of last week were yesterday cut up In the maoerater In the basement of the Treasury department because they were In too bad a. shape for-clrculatlon. They were part of a $840,000 shipment from this city to the subtreasury of New York, and It was thought at first that the entire batch of money had been rendered useless. ; The money was sent by express last Sat urday and encountered the swollen rivers beyond Philadelphia. The water entered the express car and penetrated the safes in which the money was locked. Hamil ton, ' the treasurer at New York, refused to receive the damaged money when It was delivered and it was sent back to Washington. Eight hundred thousand dol lars was made up of gold certificates that had been only slightly wet They were spread 'Out and quickly dried and have since been disposed of. The $40,000 of sil ver certificates were soaked beond restora tion and were finally sent to the mocer- ater. About $6,000 worth of other paper money that had been consigned to different national banks, was also ruined "by the storms. 'I have stoped talking to you fellows about , the ;plans ! or this department," bluntly declared Secretary Shaw to a news paper friend the other day. - ''I know, of course,- that I can trust your but I have learned that It Is better not to. talk to anybody when X am maturing an Important movement. Now take this last refunding operation of the treasury Involving $20,000, 000. Why, man, I Said ' nothing to any body about that, and still news of it leaked out before I was ready for It." "How did It get out?" asked the news paper man. ine aeen gray eyes ot tne secretary of the treasury twinkled. He screwed up his face until It looked like a funny' mask. "That's what I'd like to know,", he said. 'Do you know," he went on to say, "since I come to think it over I do remember that I wrote one letter about it." 'To whom?" Insisted the Inquisitorial Journalist. "To the president, sir to the president sir," exclaimed Mr. Shaw, "but I clear for got to tell him ' to say nothing about The magnificent new union station to be erected In Washington, the cost of which will be $4,250,000, may be ready for the busi ness of the .next presidential Inauguration, a year from next March. The Pennsylvania road will employ 2,t00 men on the building, and will do the work Itself. The Baltimore it Ohio road Is to do the. work on the via duct and approaches and promises to have that completed on March t, 1906. The build ing exclusive of the train floor will cover an area of 760x250 feet, while the train shed will be 800x135 feet. Washington men who claim to be in the confidence of "Uncle Joe" Cannon, the speaker-to-be, declare his policy aa house leader Is to be aa follows: No "pork bar'l" appropriations of any kind; no new public building bills, but only the continuance of appropriations for proj ects hitherto authorised; no general river and harbor bill, but only provisions for con tract work provided for by. previous ses sions; no tariff legislation of any kind, and no reciprocity legislation except for Cuba; no financial legislation, and no changes In or expansion of anti-trust legislation al ready on the statute books. In fact, nothing new, novel or startling in legislation, and only the utmost conservatism. Finally, ad journment of congress by April, or In May at the latest. General J. P. Sanger, U. S. A., has com pleted the work of making a census of the Philippine Islands, reports the Army and Navy ' Register. The census was taken as planned, because the people wanted it taken. Many opinions were expressed ks to its . practicability and the Spaniards and some of our army officers, especially those who had served In Samar and Leyte, be lieved It to be either Impossible or capable of being finished only after a year or two of difficult work. Much opposition was appre hended by them from the disaffected and criminal classes, more especially the la drones and Insurrectos. However, there was no serious opposition encountered in any of the larger islands, and this was especially true of Samar and Leyte, where there was no Interference whatever with Headaches More Headaches come from Rye Trouble than from any other cause. Many peopl suffer Intemie pains wiion they could be entirely relieved by Proper Glasses. We have hundreds of cases that bear us out in this statement.

In the Island of Cam aguln, north of the province of Misamla, Mlndanoa, the enumerators were threat ened and opposed and It was necessary to use force, but Governor Corralest thought the demonstration had other objects In view and that the census merely precipi tated the movement. Vicious people In Cebu spread a report that taxation was the real purpose of the government In taking the census and In two or three barrios of that pueblo some objection was made to It, but this was not serious and easily re moved when Governor Taft's proclamation was made plain.

The' fierce light that was supposed to beat exclusively upon a throne has come, In our modern conditions, to beat with almost equal fierceness upon a kitchen. The ' doings, sayings and portraits of the cooks of the truly rich are nowadays mat ters for public record. Meantime our American court calendar includes not only the daily doings of the presidential family, but also of the families of those of our millionaires who aro in, and are by some supposed exclusively to constitute "society." Not only this, but there is a system, especially in what would be called In England the .provincial . press, of re cording the doings, movements and vis itations of pretty much everybody in pretty much every community in the country. What effect is all this publicity to have upon -the average man, woman, and gtrlT But, particularly, - what effect Is all this familiarity to have upon the world s senti ment with regard to royalty and high ecclesiastical authority? As to these latter matters, surely there will be palpable ef fects. Can the. sense of awe contlnu; as great when there is so little left of the unknown? One thing is sure: the sentiment toward kings and courts and vatlcans can never remain, the same in these new and remarkable conditions. The relation be tween the' former' and their subjects and followers may be' none the Jess affectionate, even reverent; It may become more human, more close. But the mystery having de parted, there. can hardly be the old stress. When the mind is no longer awed sna clouded by the dim and the unknown the appeal, to reason must be reinforced. , .
