The Appeals to Public Opinion.
It is Interesting to observe all the warring
nations of Europe seeking to Justify their acts
In the court of public opinion. In this, as ev
eryone knows, the allies, or rather the British,
secured a long start by giving out the official
correspondence of Its foreign affairs office.
Gradually the other powers have come to realize
the vital help or hurt of Vie moral support or
condemnation of neutral peoples and the docu
ments In the esse are coming forth until it Is
reasonable to expect that before the hearing Is
concluded, practically all of the evidence will
have been Incorporated In the record.
The significance of the undisguised effort to
appease the public mind of Other countries,
however, lies in the recognition that belief In a
righteous cause Is to be a controlling factor,
notonly in the conduct of the war, but in the
settlements that must come later. In other
days It was "might makes right and we'll talk
about where the blame belongs when we are
done fighting," but today reckless defiance of
the moral sentiment of the world, especially of
those not directly concerned In the quarrel, car
ries penalties which even kings and emperors'
prefer not to Incur. y 1

Promising1 Career Cut Short.
The sudden death of Horace H. Fhtlpott is
a shock to his many friends and a sorrow to his
former associates on The Bee, to which be gave
years of loyal and Intelligent service. As our
special legislative correspondent through suc
cessive sessions, be enlisted a host of admirers
by his absolutely fair treatment of men and
measures. He was not to be deceived or imposed
on, yet be commanded the Implicit confidence of
nearly every public man who figured In the
state house panorama while he was representing
us in Lincoln and we know everyone of them
will testify that he never violated a confidence.
80 devoted was "Phil" to this paper that when
he embarked la a Journalist! venture of his
own in a little Texas town, to majte it conform
to his" ideal he named it "The Francltas Bee."
That this bright and promising career, should
be ruthlessly cut short Is one of these Inscru
table manifestations that impress earth dwellers
with a sense of their helplessness.
Self -Seekers to the Rear.
The Bee's recent notice to the public that
our Omaha school board needs re-creation and
that the time to do It is a the coming election
when eight of the twelve memberships are to be
filled by the voters, has had at least one desired
effect. The taxpayers and citizens generally
are waking up to the fact that they are - them
selves responsible for whatever Inefficiency or
mediocrity secures lodgement in the controlling
management of our schools and that the Job of
recasting the board can not be shoved off on
the womenNr the children, because it concerns
the men as much, and more.
But merely becoming aroused to an unsatis
factory situation is not enough. The schools
cannot be put in charge of a better qualified
board unless men of standing in the com
munity consent to servo n this purely honorary
capacity. The "self-seekers must be sent to the
roar and by self-seekers we mean the men who
want to edge themselves in for personal profit
or perquisites, to '.saddle, sisters, cousins or aunts
on the school payroll, to award contracts for
supplies by favor, to play cat's-pa for the book
trust, or to promote some school site real es
tate deal. Omaha ought to "havo plenty of men.
educated . moor men of Integrity and tried busi
ness auimy, men tree irom seinan purposes to
fill all these places.. Too' often the voter have
had only a choice of evils, when thev should
be called on merely to select between candidates,
all of whom measure un . the highest stand-
ards. ... .
The Bee's Sosg-egtlcra "EndorserJ.
It Is, most gratifying to The Bee to find the
New York Herald endorsing the suggestion
which ws.made not long ago for a coupon pos
tsge stamp as a means of gathering' funds for
the work of the Red Cross. What we . pro
posed was an adaptation qf a method employed
in France to place on sale at every postoffice
In the country a specially designed stamp for
which an extra cent would be charged and
turned into the Red Cross treasury, thev pur
chase of the higher priced stamo belna wholly
PvolunUry- The Herald agrees with us that the
widespread opportunity thus afforded to one
and all to contribute to this' worthy effort would
evoke a general response' and quickly produce
the desired results.
Everyone concedes that there never was any
thing like tha perfection of the German-military
machine. Also that there are others made
in imitation, almost as good.

The Short Ballot th Only Bemedy.
Let It be remembered that Nebraska is hot
alone In carrying the burden of the long bal
lot, nor U It here only that the demand for relief
takes the form of a cry for reducing the number
of elective offices. The late 'primary election
la Illinois brought out all the beauties of the
overloaded ballot and furnished fresh argument
for the short ballot movement. ' The Chicago
Herald quotes a leader -whose party had the
smallest ballot, exclaiming: ."This Insane bal
lot Is enough to drive anyone from the polls."
and adds: "The plain truth is that lnteiiiaant
voting has become impossible, even for the
aboveaverage man. The short ballot is the
only remedy." ' ' w! '.
Incidentally, let no one be mlsVed into the
notion that the short ballot proposal aims at
the primary for, where as here In Omaha the
voter waa called on to make fifty-eight cross
marks to express his full, choice at the primary,
he win, t the election in November, have to
make seventy cross marks, unless in sheer ex
haustion, he swallows it whole in the vote-her-
stralght party circle. Primary or no primary,
tne only remedy is the short ballot."
The German minister to'.Mexlco tells us the
kaiser is determined '.to conquer Prance, not to
hold the country permanently, but merely to
crush, the "menace of French militarism." sir
Edward Grey of Great Britain' declares England
win never quit until it has completely destroyed
in all the world the "menace of German mili
tarism." Now, If the rest .of these "menaces"
are as essily taken care of w shall be all right.

Am here ince yesterday; have Informed William
of what you kindly told me at Buckingham palace
last Bunday, who gratefully received your message.
William, much preoccupied. Is trying hla utmost
to fulfill Nicky's appeal to him to work for mainte
nance of poace and is in constant telegraphic Com
munication with Nicky, who today confirms news'
that military mcasute have been ordered by him
equal to mobilisation, measures which have been
taken already five daya ago.
We are furthermore Informed that France Is mak
ing military preparatk ns, whereas we have taken no
measures, but may be forced to do so any moment,
ahould our neighbors continue, which would then
mean a European war. i. -
If you really and earnestly with to prevent this
terrible disaster, may I suggest you using your Influ
ence on France and also Russia to keep neutral,
which aeema to me would be most useful.
Thla I consider a very good, perhapa the- only
chance, to maintain the peace of Europe.
I may add that now more than ever Germany and
England should lend each other mutual help to pre
vent a terrible catttrophe, which otherwise seems
unavoidable. . -
Believe me that William la most sincere In his en
deavors to maintain peace, and that the military
preparations of hla two neighbors may at laat force
him to follow their example for the aafety of hla own
country, which otherwlae wnuld remain defenseless.
I have Informed William of my telegram to you,
and hope you wtll receive my informations In the same
spirit of friendship which suggests them.
