Output of the Legislature.
The regular biennial session of the Nebraska
legislature has ended, the body adjourning after
passing 308 new' laws, only one of which so far
has been vetoed. No opportunity is yet affordd
to pass critically on the merits of the new laws
because of Inadequate information as to what
they contain. It seems highly Incredible that
Nebraska could really need so many additional
rules and regulations for the government of its
peaceable cltisenshlp. The output exceeds that
of the proceeding legislature, showing thst the
members were Industrious in this regard, if in
no other. The sad feature of our law-making
habit is thst before the public becomes famlllsr
with their workings another legislature will
meet and add Its quota of laws to the contents
of the. ststute book.
One thing Is certain, though the demo
cratic promise of economy In appropriations hM
proved an Iridescent dream. Some "cheese
paring" has been done, but the big appropria
tion bills carry a total that will astonish the tax
payers. Later developments will permit a more
detailed resume of the work of the law-makers,
but, as usual. It appears the best act of Its career
was its final adjournment.
Secretary McAdoo and the Banki.
The Rlgga National bank case, now in tho
courts at Washington, bids fair to open up a sit
uation that can hardly redound to the credit of
the Wilson administration. Serious allegations
are made by the officers of the bank, who assert
that the secretary has persistently annoyed and
harassed the bank, for personal reasons, and
has used his authority to work to the detriment
of the bank.
Much grumbling has been Indulged, es
pecially since the beginning of the war in Eu
rope, by national bankers, because of the policy
adopted by the secretary of the treasury. This
policy has not Increased the efficiency nor the
security of the banks, but has entailed a great
deal of additional work and extra expense. The
charges of espionage and threats against the
Rlggs National bank, of which the secretary of
the treasury Is accused, may be the means of
determining whether the extreme care and
solicitude exhibited by Mr. McAdoo's depart
ment has been warranted by the facts
It is worthy of passing note, too, that tha
president's son-ln-law bids fair to be the mem
ber of his cabinet, whose official conduct will
most Involve the administration In official
scandal.
Nelson's Work for the West.
The death of William R Nelson, founder and
editor of the Kansas City Star, takes a conspicu
ous figure from the ranks of American Journal
ism. Mr. Nelson's aggressive personality per
meated every enterprise which he took up and
made the man and his newspaper one of the
most powerful Individual factors in the upbuild
ing of Kansas City and the west. Mr. Nelson
has often been referred to aa one of the old
school Journalists, but he bad successfully
adapted himself to every changing phase of
modern progress with the exception of his ad
herence to the old democratic free trade idea.
The work Mr. Nelson did for the development
of the west was not confined to his chosen slj,
and its fruits will be shared for all time to onie
by the people of the whole Tratsmlsslslppl
country. -
. . . Dearth of City Campaign Zaiaei.
'The elimination election for candidates in
our elty comml.slonerahlp race passed oft with
out developing a slnpa issue except the desire
of each aspirant for the Job. Every candidal,
of course. Is committed to a bigger, better aud
cleaner Omaha, to economy and efficiency, to
public Improvements, to control of public service
corporations and to all the usual popular vote
catchers. Some of the candidates are wetter
or dryer than others, but a straight-out wet and
dry Issue seems to be barred. Candidates seek
ing re-election naturally have to stand upon the
records they have made, while their opponents
are either without public record or must base
their claims upon records made in other offices.
Tt la possible, of course, we may yet have a
real issue If not, we are threatened with the
anomaly of a repetition in the finals of the
same merely personal contest that characterised
the preliminary competition.
Under the Peace Flag;.''
A body of American women is aboard ship oa
the wsy to The Hague, sailing under the "peace"
flag, a banner that demands peace for the whole
world. This sentiment Is worthy, and is ono
that will be supported by all, but the demonstra
tion at this time only shows how willing people
are to help where their services will be of little
avail. The meeting at The Hague will recall
the ghosts of other meetings held there, when
peace was talked while war was planned. Man
still is an Imperfect and perverse agent for. de
struction as well as construction, and no vlslblo
sign suggests that he Is going to change bis ways
because of the promulgation of resonant resolu
tions. If kind words and philanthropic reason
were the remedy, the millennium had long since
been ushered In- Realising the force of all this,
however, optimtetic philosophers are comforting
themselves with the thought that good is coming-
out of the present conflict. Mankind Is to
awaken to nobler Ideals and more worthy pur
poses, and from the sanguinary turmoil of war
man will emerge, chastened In spirit and
strengthened In character, to work for better
things. It this is so, the flying of the peace
flag to old ocean's breexes may be worth while.
Edgar Crammond, secretary of the Liverpool
Stock exchange, estimates the cost of the war
up to the end of next July at tSS,739,600,009
for the five chief powers. The figures embrace
direct war expenditures, property destroyed.
economic value of lives lost and losses in pro
ductlon. No matter how the war game ends,
the great outstanding certainty is the mighty
load posterity must carry or go broke.
Colonel Bryan's unfailing smoothness shines
anew in his selection of Iowa as a good place to
push the water wagon. That he observed the
wagon ready to move with another crew Is
mere coincidence.
There is no reason to doubt that the hand

Modern Generalship
rredarlek ralatar la OolUar's.
GENERALSHIP today la about aa much i.Ka gn
eralahlp of Napoleon'e time aa two-old-cat like
a major league game. The general who watches
the battle from a hill will be blown to bits by artillery
fire. I've never aeen a general on a horse In thla
war. If he travels. It Is In an automobile; end he
travels very little. He sits In front of a map covered
with blue and red-penciled lines of tha trenches and
the enemies. A dozen experts are around blm each a
specialist. He Is but the chairman of tha council, tha
silent man who llstena. The others plan and organ
ise; he nods. Photographs from eeroplanee tell him
the chana-es each day In the trenches. lie works with
a card-Index ay stem of lives and material. An expeit
In a brigade command decides whether It's practica
ble to gain a few trenches; the division staff decld-a
to let the brigade commander try, or perhaps carries
it up to tha corps staff, which may In turn pass It on
to tha great staff. A Joffre or a Von Hlndenburg alts
on tha lid. He must keep his mind on tha 'great
main object; he must not bother with details; and ha
must never, never lose his head.
Of Joffre they say that when reinforcements are
demanded he la always slow to respond. Tet they
always arrive If they are needed. In one day I ha 'e
seen SO.tW French troops pass over a single line of
railway, for they may be sent very rapidly when
necessary.
Joffre Is not caught napping, though be always
sleeps hla eight hours a day. Von Hlndenburg seems
never perplexed, never rushed, though he has struck
such telling and sudden blows.
Where Napoleon threw In 14,000 reserves and from
his horse watched them double past to change the
tide of battle. Von Hlndenburg throws 300,000 men on
railroad trains In the night Into East Prussia, and
everlastingly surprises and overwhelms the Russlana.
Meanwhile, In whnt seemed a fierce and desperate
attempt to break through In front of Warsaw, he waa
only felntlntf. But he did not make a half feint
It cost him 30,000 or 30.00) casualties. Tho allied news
papers were rejoicing In his repulse before Warsaw
when ha was preparing his coop In East Prussia.
Some Hermans who were taken prisoners In front nf
Warsaw had on their persons copies of orders Indi
cating that the frontal attacks were to be preased.
Perhaps these Germane fell prisoners very easily.
Again, In December, a copy of an appeal by Joffre
to French soldiers, saying tha time had soma to
drive the enemy out of Prance by a supreme effort,
was taken on French prisoners. Now the German
staff could not tell whether this waa a ruse or not.
Joffre did begin attacking- in a manner to Indicate
he might be about to launch a general attack. Tha
Germans had to hurry up their reserves But all
Joffre was aiming to do was to hold tha Germans oft
from tha Rusnlana at a critical moment Jeffre had
to lose as many men for this object as Napoleon lost
In seme of his battles.
Ves, It takes nerves of steel and a heart of steel
to be a great modern general directing hundreds of
othsr generals; and so this war Is a big game played
behind a curtain of military secrecy, with too many
elements at work to form hard and fast Judgments.
I notice that most of tho people who were marking
the positions on tho map with flags aren't very
busy. The changes have not been so swift and ex
citing as those of a fast ball game. Indeed, the flags
at times seem to havo frosen ta place this winter
until the Russians were flung out of East Prussia In
February. The war has gone far enough to permit
certain conclusions.
At the start ths world thougbt that it was a cinch
for ths allies. They spoke of three nations against
one, overlooking Austria as Germany's ally. The
enormous bulk of Russia filled the world's aye. Russia
had millions and millions ef men. However, there
are millions and millions of bushels of wheat growing
In the United Ktatea and Canada, but they are not
yet ready for market Germany could be fully mo-
Diusea in tnree weeks; Russia not in three months.
The confederate General Forrest, when ha was asked
wnat made a great general, said: "Getting there first

NORTH LOUP. Neb., April 14.-To the
Editor of The Bee: If we are. to Judge
from the bills being enacted Into law by
come of the various legislative bodies of
the states with respect to alcoholic bev
erages, we may safely assume that the
temperance Issue la becoming one of
the prominent subjects of economic Im
portance in tha nation. The temperance
subject was originally a sentimental
Issue, but more recently the subject be
comes economic There are a great num
ber of events in American politics which
are carefully bidden away from the pub
llo view. Many of us take certain posi
tions on public Issues becauso we have
a limited knowledge of facts respecting
those Issues. Whereas. If the facts
respecting the Issue were clearly before
us. we might possibly reverse our opin
ions. .
There are a great number of temper
ance people who, at times, wonder, why
many of the best rltiscnshtp of the state
and nation pay little attention to tha
temperance lasue. There Is a very pro
nounced reason foe it.
Here In Nebraska in recent years the
people who have handled the temperance
issue have unquestionably been in secret
conclave to nominate for publlo offloe a
class of men who are distinguished and
identified as belonging to associated cor
porate wealth. That class of men Is
extremely detested byxhe beat cltUenslp
oecause or their association In the now.
erful lobbies of Wall street financiering.
A fair precedent of the character of thslr
work may Just at this time be seen in
raising railway rates. Wa saw a fair
expression of It In the Nebraska primary
election of 19H, when the temperance
management were tied to Wall street
rtnanclerlng. It also carried woman suf
frage to defeat. The whole temperance
movement la so bound, hand and foot.
This Is why I have supported Senator
Cummins for the presidency. T.n.n.-.
ance people should learn one thing: If
you must support men for office who
are in the employ of the high finance
lobbies, the best cltisenshlp are against
you- When you fall to support their
oDDiea, they will oppose you. and hnr.
their support Is for the service you can
render In elections. If you associate mlth
imuea, wny argue temperance? Hades Is
not supposed to be temperate.

Ply both of the beljlgerents. and that It
is not our fault that one of them cannot
take advantage of our readiness to do ao

transporting such supplies against
.UTigisno s monopoly of the sea, Now if
that Is to be our (valid) excuse, why can
we not aiso say to England, France and
Rusata that It Is their fault If they did
not provide sufficient gun snd ammuni
tion factories of their own If they wanted
to engage In and carry on such a war'
Qna exouse Is Just ss good as tha othor.
Germany la lame In not having shipping
facilities; England Is lame In not having
manufacturing facilities. One offsets the
other. Tet wa not only supply the de
ficiency of the allies, but practically sup
port them in their contention that Ger
many must be starved. All our diplo
matic notes protesting af ilnst the allies'
blockade against non-contraband of war
are not worth the paper they are written
on, and now even the malls are being In-'
terfered with.
Just because, and only because, an em
bargo on the. shipment of munttiona of
war might result in a possible earlier
peace, with perhaps sllrht advantages to
Oermany, the flimsy excuse Is made that
it misht be unneutral. -
If the Shipment of such munitions had
been stopped six months, or even four or
two months ago, how much nearer would
we be to peace, and how many hundreds
of thousands of lives would have been
saved by this timer Now who Is respon
sible for, tha loss of these lives? Would
it pot be much more proper to say thst
"tha position of tho United States as re
gards neutrality is Indefensible?"
