I?o Chsngr in Reserve Bank District.
The derlnion of the Federal Reserve boarJ
Is. as was expected, adverse to the requen of the
Nebraska banks for a re-arrangement of the re
serve district that would permit them to report
to Chicago Instead of to Kansas City. It was
foreordained that the Federal board would re
fuse, because to do otherwise would reflect upon
the Justice of the decision of the organization
committee that gave two reserve banks to Mis
souri, and ignored the claims of the banking
renters of Nebranks, Colorado and other states.
The district, it must be remembered, was la'.d
out with a special view to furnishing the terrl
torisl foundstlon for a reserve bank at Kansaj
City, and to change it now as desired by the Ne
braska and Wyoming banks would take away
whatever Justification there may be for a re
serve bank at Kansas City. Our national banks
may, therefore, as well reconcile themselves to
the f set that the rnserve subdivisions will re
main substantially as originally laid out, not
withstanding their violent conflict with the
natural trend of buslnese, and make the most of
It until a new management of reserve hanks sys
tem comes Into control free to readjust to meet
actual commercial requirements.
A Start for the Semi-centennial.
, Proceeding along line suggested by The Bee,
a good start has been made toward the fitting
celebration of the Nebraska semi-centennial an
niversary. Tbia has been done by Initiative ot
the State Historical society in naming a com
mitten of representative cltlsens from all parte
of the state to take charge of plans and prelim
inary work a step made necessary by the fall
tire of the legislature to provide official machin
ery for this purpose.
In this celebration Nebraska will have the
center of the stage. Nevada was admitted to
the union ahead of Nebraska, but not another
state followed until Colorado nine yearl later.
Our people take a natural pride in what ha
been accomplished in these fifty years In the
notable men and remarkable women who did
the pioneering in the deep laid foundations upon
which the commonwealth has been erected. The
attainment of fifty years 6t statehood on March
1, 1917, will give us a not-to-be-neglected oppor
tunity to review the wonderful progress made,
and the magnificent achievements scored. In the
upbuilding of Nebraska. It will give oppor
tunity to impress, not only our own people, but
the country at large, with the magnitude of onr
resources already developed and their future
possibilities.
' Another Underwood Tariff Failure.
Not only hss the Underwood tariff law fal
len short of Its aim as a revenue producer, but it
has slso apparently failed to give the email
measure of protection it contemplated to Indus
trie the democratic administration pretended
to be eager to foster. One of the blunders ot
the law is now pending before the court of Hp
peals, where Importers are trying to collect the
rebate provided for fn the law, amounting to S
per cent on cargoes carried on American bot
toms. The secretary of the treasury has ruled
this cannot be paid, because of Its belpg In vio
lation of certain existing treaties.
This clause waa originally Inserted In the
law with a view to encouraging American ship
ping by inducing Importers to favor vessels un
der American registry. The democratic com
mittee report on the 5 per cent provision de
fined it as "a discrimination In favor of Amer
ican shipping, designed to build np our mer
chant marine and keep at home millions of dol
lars now being paid to foreign vessels to carry
cur products to foreign markets." The. lav;
was so clumsily worded, however, that Jt tailed
on its first test. During the debate in congress
the republicans repeatedly warned the democrats
that the phrsseology of the law waa defective,
but It was breath wasted. The democrats hni
a vague idea that they knew what waa wanted,
and they guessed at the method of securing it.
The importance of the question did not impress
them with the necessity of being careful, and the
law has landed In court with an adverse decision
of the secretary 6f the treasury, upheld by the
attorney general, to overcome.
About the only good that Is likely to come
from the effort to enact this Important piece cf
legislation .will be further , proof ot the ineffec
tiveness of democratic methods.
Paying the Porter.
It is comforting to know that President Lin
coln of the Pullman company is concerned over
the wages that are paid employes of the com
pany, and that be has been much annoyed by
reason of the low rate at which porters are car
ried on the payroll. Merely being the president
of the company, Mr. Lincoln ia not expected to
have a great deal to say about the methods of
conducting Us business, and hardly anything to
do with the pay roll. Still, it Is good to know
that when he travels in one of the traveling
hotels his company maintains he expects to have
his shoes shined. and to give the porter a tip la
the morning. That places blm right on a parity
with a lot of other mortals, who Indulge in tho
same expectations whenever they fold them
selves up In a Pullman berth. The "shine" may
not always be realised, but the tip In the morn
ing la inevitable.
The Bee pointed out some days ago that the
public is not so very much concerned over the
small coin handed the porter on leaving the
trala aa it la in some other features of the Pull
man management. If the comfort and conveni
ence ef the passengers were looked after with
a little less ot luxury snd a little more of com
mon sense; If plush and plated decorations could
be transmuted Into fresh air and leg room, for
example, much ies of grumbling would be heard
after a night on a "sleeper."
"Westward the tide of travel takes its way!"
the Brooklyn Eagle exclaims in a cordial en
dorsement of the "See America First" movement.
Even though the change ot front is compulsory,
it is none the leas gratifying. Any means which
breaks the eastern provincial shell snd induces
,tbe natives to follow the sun beyond their nar
row bounds makes for better health and larger
vision where most needed.
The hurry call for more extensive planting
and cultivation of plum trees will not touch a
responsive chord in the hearts ot Nebraska's
"fslthful." What the latter needa to check
emaciation ia an effective means of shaking the
plum trees already loaded with fruit.
The Political Caldron
A Tea. If mora men had voted, or If tha women
had voted, or If It had been a warmer day, If tne
yellow journal had not overdone the job. If the ant la
had had more money for their campaign fund. If tha
moon'a phase had been different. If tt had only been
three daya earlier or three days later, tf things had
been 1lfferent-Jut different in any old way what
a difference there might have been!
One ronaolation of election day waa that It brotifht
forth tha omnipotent, omnlpreeent and omniscient
Senlna whnae preamble Is alwaya. "I told you so." or
' It happened this way." Juat what art of a day the
day after election would be without him, la too terri
ble to contemplate. Uke a brook of poetry, ha rocs
on forever and adda to the cheer of the community.
He looks backward and forward with equal facility
end his political hypotheace are fearfully and won
derfully made.
"It s Juat this way," he begin, bringing the palms
of his handa In JuxtopoalUon, "the Square Seven had
mora candidates than the Big Blx. There Is safety In
numbere, that l wny Hummel had 'safety first' on
his campaign cards. Asaln. It may have been all
rlfht for tha antls to aend out el! pa with a Bible quo
tation, but while they were praying they did not keep
their powder dry. I knew that Hummel would get a
large vnta because ha placed baae ball diamonds and
atands In the parka and installed play apparatus for
tha kids. I also maintain that Chairman button went
to the had when he refused to recognise the coatlees
brigade when he waa district .court Judge. The coat-
leas brigade have a large vote. I also understand that
some of tha administration employee got out and
worked for the Square Sevan, which helped some."
M
fa alienee golden In a political campaign? Tha re
turns would Indicate that the race Is not always to
the man who haa a glib tongue. Drexal, for Instance,
tha man ot silence on tho antt ticket, led tha Blj Bin,
while Ztmman, the most asgresolve speaker ef the
antia. was laat of hie ticket Hummel, Kugel and
"Wlthnell, who led the administration ticket, do not
pretend to be public talkers. Wlthnell la known for
his silence, and yet he seems to have a stronger fol
lowing than aome great orators.
Well, it la all' over anyway, and Chairman Flynn
advisee everyone to forgive and forget; to get to
gether once more end work for a Greater Omaha.'
Prospective annexation Is now the sunject before the
house. Omaha must now face tha task of making
tha adopted territory feel "at home." There seems
to be plenty work ahead for the officials If consolida
tion goes through. New municipal problems must be
faced and larger Ideas must be worked out.
"The race la not alwaya to the swift." The two
winners of the "Big flx." though carrying a big handi
cap, outpaced their associates on the home stretch.
Mill, it Is not strange that a shoe man showed good
footing. It Is his specialty,
The administration people are vary bitter against
Election Commissioner Moorhead who. they claim, took
advantage of fine spun technicalities In a manner
which worked sgalast the "Dquare flevea." The mayor
says his ticket lost nearly 1.00 votes by reason of tjia
election commissioner's arbitrary methods. Tha mayor
says he Is going to tell the governor about It, too. The
mayor has appointed himself te be tne election com
missioner's political nemesis.
Next Monday Omaha wtlt enter upon Its second
term under the commission plan of government. On
that day the city council will meet to reorganise and
start all over again. In all probability Drexel and
Jnrdine will be assigned to the departments held by
Ryder and McOovern, providing that tha official re
turns sustain the unofficial returns. It Is expected that
Jardine will be commissioner of street cleaning and
maintenance and Drexel head of the publlo improve
ments department or vice versa. There Is some spec
ulation as to what affect the mayor's vote will have
in tho matter ef deciding who shall be mayor for the
next three years, but the opinion prevails that "Jim"
will succeed himself. There are some anxious ones
trying to sea the mayor made aa ordinary commis
sioner. In addition to the honor of tha office, there
la an additional salary of $500 a year In this position.
And there are such privileges as pitching- tha first
ball at the opening ball game, issuing pardons to city
Jail greMuatea, snd addressing conventions.
Twice Told Tales
A Hard .Preposition.
There waa a brlaadler general In the civil war who
was so earnest In his religious efforts that In a short
time he had converted every man in the brigade except
one hardened teamster. Going to his commander one
day tills man said.' eolemnly;
"General I am lonesome. Every man In tha ramp
haa been converted except me. I suppose It's the riarht
thing, but I don't see how I can manage It."
"Why, my good fellow." said tho gAieral. "I aea no
difficulty In tha wsy of It, If you will just surrender
your own will and ask for guidance."
"That's Jest It. general." aald the teamster. "If I
am converted,- who In blazes Is goln' .o drive them

"Halloa! What are you off tor' Booth aaked.

"What's the play?"

"And what part do you take?" Booth asked, la sud

"There la only one part for me In the play," Bar

"i ine tee: oeorso p. Ford hss an

spending of 5,x.0n0 for three little

East Bide. City planning would have
avoided the great land condemnation
coats for a waterfront Improvement that
so many cities are ' now paying. "It
would see to It," says Ford, "that every
improvement should be designed with a
view, not only to present need. but. as
far as is possible to foresee, to the best
Interest of the city and the property
owner when its population Is double or
treble what It Is now.
"City planning conserves snd stabilizes
real estate values. Perhaps Its first duty
Is to undertake to prevent, so far aa
possible, tha demoralizing shifting of real
estate values from which so many cities
are suffering Just now."
Something is certainly wrong If values
fail. If everything were rlsht It need
not be said that tho only change would
be for the better. It seeme unreasonable
to presume that values In and near a
beauty spot will deteriorate unless the
beauty apot Itself becomes disrespectable.
"To carry out such a program, how
ever." says Vr. Ford, "the" city needs
the co-operation of those who" know real
estate and real estate ' values. It Is so
largely a matter of getting the greatest use
and value out of property that It ia obvious
that tha city should have tha advantage
of the best real eatate experience. Tha
real estate man owes It to his clients to
help In every way he can."

verses libeling a friendly nation, which
verses were warded n prize by the

entirely unwarranted 'n Ita concluslona.
unless Intended to voice partisan senti

science and freedom of BDeech must rule
at our universities so far as academls dis
cussions and teaching Is concerned, but
academic comity and national courtesy
draw the line at improDrietiea which
are more nearly Indecencies than "lack

Harvard, In asinine stupidity, were sec

Entirely devoid of literary' value and
fuil of mlsrepresentatione they were ob
viously composed to vent spleen and to
created prejudice.
Whatever inspiring genius of American

thin Ice when he compares tha endowed

Nowhere Is there more violence done to

Tha multl-rrlUlonalre who hopes to Im

Who had endowed the Institution, com

ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning, most
if not all, of your dandruff will be gone.
and three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign snd trace of It, no
mattcj- how much dandruff you mev
have.
You will find, too, that all Itching snt
digging of the scalp will stop at once,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
a hundred times better.
You esn get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It ls tnexpcnrlve and never falls
to do the work. Advertisement.
