The Presidential Term.
The renewed proposal of a one
term six-year presidency is attracting
much attention, and eliciting favor
and supnort from many sources.
That it is stimulated at this particu
lar time by the projection of a third
term candidacy Is self-evident, al
though it is not the result of this
candidacy, but rather a revival of a
movement in progress for quit a
long time.
It seems that just prior to the 1910
election, a republican club In New
York renewed the agitation, and as
a result procured the presentation to
the New York assembly of a reso
lution providing thst th term of of
fice be tlx years, with Ineligibility tot
re-election. Copies of th resolution
were shortly thereafter aent to th
governor of th various state In
vltlng their co-operation, and of
twenty-two governors who replied
sixteen expressed themselves In favor
of the change, while five wrote favor
ing th amendment but with quali
fications, and only one. expressed no
sympathy with It. It Is Interesting to
not that among th replies Oovernor
Aldrkh of Nebraska wrote that "I
ravor the resolution which was
adopted by the state of New York,'
and indicated a desire that th same
be Introduced Into th legislature ot
hla state at th next session.
That the tendency Is in th direc
tion for longer terma for onr execu
tive offcers, both state and national.
la unquestioned. Bom would prefer
merely to incorporate into th consti
tution th present custom ot a pos
sible two four-year terma that may
be cut short at th nd of a first
term, and not to be extended beyond
th end of a second term. Th reason
(iven for cutting off r-ellg iblllty is
a desire to prevent th use of offi
cial power to control for re-election,
but, aa a matter of fact, th temp
tation to as th Influence of office
his proved Just is great when the
president's effort Is to name a succes
sor aa whan It is to retain the office,
and It seems to us that this Is Inher
ent In our system of party govern
ment. The . presidency I a prise
which limit It as we may, will con
tinue to Be sought after and fought
over every time th offlc Is to be
filled, whether one In four yare or
one In six yesrs, or less often.
A Significant Demand.
Th Oil Bias, oldest and notably
most Influential newspaper In Mexico,
has called upon President Madero
and Vic President 8iarea to resign,
and to eav th nation from a tre
mendous catastrophe." It publishes
Its editorial under a five-column, big
typ head, emphasising what It con
siders to b th gravity of th na
tional problem. Intensified th longer
Madero remains in office. This- la
not on of th papera that ha car
ried on a violent warfare against the
new regime, but tt come cut with
this significant declaration- aa th re
mit of a deliberate Judgment formed
upon th basis of events succeeding
th Inauguration at Madero and
Suarei.
Almost at th earn time this de
mand tor Madero a resignation la
published. Gomes I proclaimed pro
visional president ot Mexico by
Oroioo. leader of the rebels, with
th avowed purpose of securing
recognition by the United 8tste of
their belligerency.. Another very
important fact In thla same connec
tion Is th voluntary assurance of
friendship by Zapata, the southern
rebel leader, tor Orosco In the north,
these two having been rivals.
It develops that rapine and plunder
and guerilla warfare continue
abated In Mexico while Madero lacks
fore. Foreign life and property
ar atlll exposed in eplte of th
appeal and warning of ouuid na
tions. How long such a situation can
last without Intervention la the ques
tion. Condition Plainly cannot re
main aa they ar Indefinitely. We
may ahak eur heads at the thought
of intervention, but sooner or later

semblance of orderly government.

A Modern Altar for China.
The Influence of western ctrillxa
tlon. which baa wrought revolution
In the statecraft ot China, aeema also
to have worked Ita way Into th lot
affairs of thia most ancient of em
pires. Marrlagss. which in the old
were performed with such
weird fantasy and customs wholly
unknown and alien - to occidental
though, ar now solemnised, even
non-hristisn marriage, according to
our rituals, Just as w solemnize
them.
This may seam an inauspicious
thing at first thought, but when one
reflects upon the fact that in China,
aa la all eastern countries, marriage
to th estat. above all others. In
which the native customs and tradi
tions seem to center with their deep
est meaning, he may appreciate the
significance of modern matrimony
In China.. There is more then mere
form in the change. The ancient
custom was for the girl to be bo
th rot hod by her parents In childhood;
she perhaps, never knew or saw her
husband nntil th time cam for
them to be married. She became,
therefore, a submissive chattel, Jaat
a woman has always been In other
pbasea of life ia the oldest lands.
With th altar of western matri
mony erected along with the occiden
tal form of government In China,
European and Amf1',yn ncople wiuj
hare cause for the greatest exultation
in the advance China la making. It
means greater freedom for woman
kind, greater Intellectual and moral
advance. No nation baa held woman
in subjection and progressed. China
is undoubtedly progressing, but.
under the spell of modern civiliza
tion, she is releasing her centuries
old bondage of woman and raising
her more nearly to a parity with
msn. Her feet ara freed from the
torturing clamps and her heart Is
now let loose to fly its owa way to
the other heart that calls It.
Public Business in Secret
The demand for publicity of every
thing and anything that concerns the
public la growing stronger and
stronger. It rests upon the Inborn
suspicion that the transaction of
public business In secret alms to
cover np something that would not
look food In the light ot day. That
la why w have bad to paaa lawa to
meet th demand for publicity of
campaign expenditure, for publicity
for railroads, for publicity of fran-
chised corporation finances, for pub
licity of Insurance companies, for
publicity In all directions. Whenever
public servant persist In transacting
public business behind barred doors,
there I a protest, and It la bard to
get people to accept explanation.
Publicity I on of th prim cla
mant of profresslvenesa, and resort
to th dark recesses of secrecy Is
raaetionism even though committed
by men who pretend to be progres
sives.

1.701 000 men and women employed by the
railroad companies, but by the men who

upon which the railroad traffic et the
country la carried. Nothing more vitally
affecting the personal Interest ef the
railroad employe and his family
svar been designed than this proposed
legislation. Fortunately, It stands s
Chance ot passage. It is the outcome of
months of hearing and deliberation by a
committee admittedly capable of dealing
with every phase ef the subject and
representing the railroads as well aa
their employes. The administration is
committed to legislation of thla hind and
President Taft regards It as "one ot the
greatest steps of progress toward a satis
factory solution of the Important phase
of the controversy between employer and
employe that haa been proposed within
the last two or three decades."
The bill has beea favorably reported to
ths senate by the committee on the ju
diciary. In place of the old eommon-law
system of employer's liability based upon
negligence, with Ita defense of contribu
tory negUgence.' assumption of risk and
fellow-fault there is proposed a system
based not upon fault but upon the fact
of injury resulting from accident In the
course of employment Stated In general
term the proposed legislation provides
that every common carrier engaged In
Interstate and foreign commerce by rail
road shall pay compensation to any of
ita employ who, while employed by
such employer In such commerce, sus
tains personal injury by accident arising

ment and resulting In his disability, or

new law would he exelustve-an existing
common laws and statutory remedies, so

death le occasioned by the wilful Inten
tion of the employe te bring about the
Injury or death ef himself or another or
whea the same resulted from his Intoxica
tion while ea duty.
It te made the duty of the employe not
later than thirty days after the accident
and. In ease et death, the duty et one or
more ef hie dependants, te give notice ef
the aoeldsnt, with the parttoulara thereof,
te the employer. Provlalen Is mads by

event the notice must be given within
ninety days; except that where th Injury
has resulted In the absence ef the em
ploye from work tor at least two days,
and within such parted et thirty days the
employer has actual knowledge ef th
injury or death, and in cases where ths
death results within twenty-tour hours
from the accMant notice le not required.
After the expiration of fourteen days
after the Injury It is mads lawful for th
employer aad the employe to eettie by

issoa I am avow fighting Mayor
Dshiman. because he to silled with the
forces of Tom Dennlsoa, the over-lord
of the vice trust of Omaha.
It may be necessary, at th present
stage of human development, to have a
vicious under work, but to net neces
sary for sane men to vote te put that
"vicious nnder world" ea top.
I did not come te Omaha for the pur
pose of engmxtng la this campalsa, but
tor the purpose ot assisting ta the eeteh
Ushmeat ot a great n a-sectarian uni
versity la this city. Hiving come -to
Omaha to make my permanent residence
for this purpose and finding la the cam
paign of the Ctttscns' union an oppor
tunity for public service, I cheerfully
I and voluntarily enlisted, aad have, to
tne best of my am my. assuneu in puea
Ing forward the work et this disinter
ested organisation to what we hope will
prove a successful issue.
I have no apologiea to offer te Mayor
Dahlmaa or any other man tor the course
which I hsvs pursued snd which I pro
pose to continue consistently during my
entire residence la thla city.
I have never until 'now requested any
publicity et my personal vlewe la the
columns of the preea. but la view of the
widespread publicity which Mayor Dahl
man's statements have secured. I ask
as a courtesy the publication of thia
letter. CHARLES A. ALDEN.
