The dinner ot repobllcana at Lincoln may b taken aa indicative of Urn spirit that now ani mate tha party In Nebraska. "Getting back" is not a problem, ot strategy or tactic, but merely a question of time. The people are rap Idly tiling of the failure of toe democrats ( make good on any of their promises. Bare tin. one that they would, aa far aa possible, sma-h tip all the republican party bad constructed. So far, the smashing tip process has been very complete and very successful. Bute and nation alike suffer from the effects of the experiment of allowing the democrats to try their theories of government. Congressman Sloan mildly pictures the outcome In these words: Two yeara art) we turned over to the democratic party tha country at the noonday of Ita existence with all department. In good condition, but today after only two years of power, we find a depleted treasury and every department In trouble. Divisions among republicans are rapidly dis appearing, and its united forces will surely re store to power the party of truly progressive policies. More than mere party success is in volved In the approaching campaign. The des tiny of the country rests with the republican party, and It Is the future that concerns the voter, more than the past. The signs of change are multiplying. Serious Breach of Hospitality. The editor of a great Paris newspaper, re cently Is Washington, cabled home to bis paper purported Interview with President Wilson, which the latter gentleman repudiates in toto. The patriotic seal of the editor seems to have led him into a serious breach of hospitality. While the president of the United States may have said word or two of friendly Interest to th editor when the French ambassador pre sented bis distinguished countryman, It Is highly Improbable that be indulged In any extended comment on the war In any of its phases. It Is unreasonable to think that Mr. Wilson would fall Into the blunder of making statements that would .five "aid and comfort" to either of the combatants, ) Little of real harm will result from the In cident, but It serves to show how Jealously the nations Involved .are watching and bow eagerly, they scire upon any. point that may be turned to advantage' . The Mechanics of the City Election. ' Confronted with an Important city election only a few' days off, our people seem by their UstlessneBfl to be largely unprepared for meeting the requirements Involved in expressing a pre liminary choice from among the long list of can didates seeking their favor. This, perhaps, Is due In part to th distractions of other pressing subllo questions and to the continuous talk of postponement, but also In part to failure" to grasp the mechanics of the election. . Let us. therefore, impress it again upon one and all that tha so-called city primary, which Is scheduled to take place next Tuesday, Is Ln real ity not a nominating primary, but an elimination election; that of the seventy-three names on the ballot only fourteen will appear on the ballot in tbe regular election to be hold five weeks' later. Under our commission plan scheme, abmlnattons are made not by primary, but by tbe petitions accompanying the filings, and nominations have been closed. f At the Impending preliminary election, each voter may Indicate his choice for not to exceed even candidates7, the top fourteen to go on the official ballot, from which he will, again select seven.' jit is imperative, therefore, that suffi cient concentration be secured In tbe elimination race to keep enough good men In the runn'ng for the finals that a satisfactory selection of suit able material, may be bad out ot the fourteen who stand high In the first count. ' Our advice. la for each voter to study tha qualifications and capabilities of the different Candidates and, with such disinterested help anu dvics as may be had, to make their decisions before going to the polls. '. . Vfhat About Hucrtat It Is reported-from Spain 'that Hncrta has sailed for Argentina, Ills ultimate destination being Mexico, where he proposes 'to bead an other,' section 'of the many-sided ; ''revolution" now ,1a progress in that unhappy country. The muddle will be all tbe more delightfully murky should the ex-dlotator add , bis presence at this time. Huerta Is tbe most, vigorous of all thil leaders who have arisen since the demonstration sgalnst Plas took head, and showed In his short time the most capacity for real government ' CTarranta' star seems to be statlonsry, If not waning.', Villa Is pursuing his former chief with more vigor than he exhibited against Huerta, and bis prowess 1 still potent.' An Interesting light on the nature of the soldiery Is shown by the Associated Press dispatch, Which tells of ho a body of Villa's troops, mistaking a bugla call, mad their way into a Carr ansa camp, and find ing where they were promptly transferred their allegiance to a new "leader.." This Is qulta an Illuminative commentary en the chsracter of th army of liberation," the on common Impulse or fsctor of cohesion being plunder and rapine. Uncle Bam Is1 still patrolling the border, still annoyed by the Immediate presence ot the com batants, who pwBlateutly bring their battles right to the border. "Watchful wafting" is being' sorely tried by 'these maneuvers. . . ' Start Public Improvement Early. . This Is tbe time to urge an early start of whatever program ot public improvements may ba planned tor Omaha for the coming season. Our trouble each year has ' almost Invariably been that the preliminaries, are prolonged, and contracts delayed so that Jobs of paving, sewer building and the like either hav to be rushed to their detriment to get In ahead ot the cold weather or hang over unfinished till the next season.; It Is seldom, moreover, that such d- Isys could not have been avoided by more timely proceedings - at tb. outsat. .We do not know how It Is la this respect in other cities, but It Is certainly possible for Omaha to do better in ex pedlting this class of outdoor Improvement work. Mre man as a book agent Is esteemed tbe most artistic salesman on the road. The fame that was, bis is no more. Ills halo Is dimmed snd dished, lie is a mere two-spct.in a gsn.o )iWh women now adorn with iri-Intn-itng U"t J"''- I'ultow with tbe cowlug t.f babies in othri 'alts.

The city conrmlaaloners hav learned a new atrld which la known as tha campaign canter. It consist ot moving th feet In a sort of double-ehulfl. th effect being that the body I moved forward at an alactrltou rat of speed, rather undignified for a public official. There'a a reason.' , ' This Is th season when candidates are atopped by all sorts and condition of men with all aorta and conditions of requests and pleadtnga . . Thla state of affair ha become so marked that publlo business la threatened with aartous Interference. A special policeman was placed In th city hall to keep out professional political moochera, bat th police man has been-with drawn and th eld order returneth. Then the commie loners hit upon th Idea of assuming- a myopic condition and accelerating their gait by throwing their feet Into high speed. This works like a charm. . i ; It Is am mrlng-te see Commissioner Kugel, for In stance, doing a hot foot up Far nam street toward th olty hall and then do a marathon until he reaches th elevator. V ... - "Bay, At, Just a minute!" Importunes a. wayfarer. Kugnl speed on, turning neither te th right r.or to the loft "Say; Al, oaa I you for a second T" Is another salutation. , ' At the rate Al la going It la posslbls to saa him only for a second. ' This sudden and simultaneous buret of speed by the vote-chasers lends a bit of levity to an otherwise dull campaign- It Is good moving picture atuff. Twice Told -Tales , ' '. Thw Leveler. . .

BLESSING. Oa Divorce. OMAHA, April l.-To tbe Editor ot Tha Be: I bolleve the divorce habit la spreading and. If so, I am glad of It. The Idea or getting married and remain ing In that unfortunate condition throughout a long life eh owe a want ot taste aad refinement and the sanctity supposed to be connected with th mar riage relation la only a species of hum bug contrived to darxle the Imagination of tha vulgar. Women especially ought to study this divorce question, and learn to take advantage of, and appreciate their privilege la this direction. If your husband baa but SIS a week salary, and haa no prospect of promotion, he Is a rascal, and you hav only to apply to a lawyer In order to obtain counsel, con solation and a b&l of divorcement la order to secure a divorce, you must ef course, he able to assign wins reason able motive; you may. for example, plead involuntary servitude, unexpected maternity or unbearable domestication; or you may charge him with chronlo laborlousnass, unpopularity, carnality, nepotism, fanaticism and panudo-sanctt-rnonlousnesa I am of the opinion that men who commit thee crimes are unde serving of tha boundless and undying love which women everywhere ara showering upon their worthies husband. O women, women! how long will you love, her!ah and protect such pusillanimous villiansr How long . will you allow your - atupid husband to open hi own pay envelop and have his own bank account? How long will you allow him to whip your children, aaas your - mother, and stay horn from th picture show? - Dadlea, divorce la cheap, and th marriage Insti tution la unscientific, tmeugenie, and un fashionable.

How Advertising Service Has Made Us Grow The progress of an Institution la measured by Its services to others and usually la reflected In physical else. Superior advertlsing marchaadlslng service haa brought progress and rapid growth to us, requiring us to sextuple our offices in one year.
