TAFT FOR ECONOMY.
The word "economy" which appear
ed in Mr. Taft's inaugural was there
on business. It meant exactly what it
said. This will be shown a few days
hence when he gives to the public the
estimates of the executive departments
for the fiscal year which begins with
July 1, 1'JlO. The appropriations for
the year which opens with July 1, l'JOll,
were made in the session of Congress
which ended on March 4, three months
ago. Those for the year which will be
gin a little less than thirteen months
hence will be made in the session which
opens in December, lUn'J. All along the
line the coming estimates arc expected
to be below the appropriations for the
year immediately ahead of them. Tin
cut is expected to amount to SliO.OOO,.
OHO for the War Department, 10,000,
for the Navy Department, and $!t,0( 0,-
(VlO for the Deppartment of the Interior.
This would make a reduction of $:i'J,-
00(1,000, as compared with the appro
priations which Congress recently
made. It is expected that the cuts in
the other departments will bring the
reduction to about $rO,O00,0O0.
The News-Herai.d takes very great
pleasure in presenting to its readers a
aeries of articles on "Making Money
on the Farm," by Prof. C. V. Gregory
of the agricultural division of the Iowa
etate college. Prof. Gregory is a high
authority on agricultural subjects, yet
he writes in a simple and readable
Btyle that can be easily understood.
In view of the recent heavy rains, we
have concluded to present an article on
"Drainage." This series of studies
will have such value that we suggest
that the farmers save the entire series.
The News-Herald predicted before
the passage of the Rank Guaranty Law

will be known as the Plattsmouth Na-
COMMISSION GOVERNMENT.
It is evident that practically all the
leading cities in Kansas will soon adopt
Commission government. The absolute
success of the plan in Leavenworth has
left no doubt in the minds of those
who are interested in good government
as to the eflicieecy and feasibility of
the new system, and the report from
every city where the plan has been
given a thorough test has made it an

City, Kas.,will vote upon the adoption
of the plan next month and there ap
pears no doubt but that it will carry
by a very large majority.
In Topeka Mayor Green has sent out
petitions for calling of an election to
adopt the plan there this summer and
the business men are giving the move
ment their hearty support. Wichita
has already adopted the commission
plan.

There's no such thing as a dull day

ever imagined. It is moderate in

The N'ews-IIekali) through the edi
torial columns has made a vigorous
fight for decency in this city. Some
have criticised the editor and the paper;
some have sworn vehemently at us;
and some have withdrawn business.
We have stuck to the text and have
produced some good results. At least
one house of ill fame was forced out of
the city because of our fight; one Sun
day booze joint retired from violation
of the Sunday law; and some tin horn
gamblers have become less conpicuous,
because they were alarmed. These are
some of the things the Ni:wH-IIi:u.M.i)
has already accomplished. This has
been done without the aid of some pub
lic ollicials whose duty it is to enl'ore
the law. The work is not finished yet
There still remains something more to
be done. We shall continue to advo
cate decency, and if it becomes neces
sary we shall take up the matter in a
concrete form and point out specific
cases. Thus far we (have dealt with
the matter in an abstract way. There
is no sense in decent people being ig
nominious cowards, the citizen in so
far as he tolerates wrong and vice
shirks his responsibility to society.
The citizen who does not use every
effort to stamp out indecency and vi
ciousness is not morally entitled to the
protection of the law, when such
wrongs creep into his own household.

they are too busy with the growing
