THE FARMERS UNION AND THE CODE,
At a atate-wlda convention of tha Farmers union,
halJ in Lincoln September 4. a resolution waa
adopted condemning tha code system of state admin
latrat'.ou. At tha aama time an Inveitiicatinjr com.
anittfle composed of Ave farmera was named to jro to
the atatehouse, overhaul tho machinery of govern
tnent and tenort on what It founii.
Douotlce some expected awecpinc denunciation
f tha entiie code-budget system: others msy huve
nticipatd the suggestion of soma method of handling
uulilic affairs as a aubatitute for the present plan.
Whnt actually tame forth aa a result of this probe la
ih mint aiitnincant occurrence of the present politJ
eat campaign. Thia ia found in the conclusion of
the report:
"Th coda baa not created aa Inrg-a a numtw of
new offlrra anil omrhila aa It I auppoaml. but It haa
rorganled tlie old ayntirn and ath-rd tha mat
tered actlvltlce to function In a buiineanlika manner,
. . . AftT cartful lnvllKatlon and conald'-mtlon,
wa demnnd the retention of the budget ytem undt-r
any pton that miaht prevail, for tha renaon that It
Btnnil fr th prevention of deflclfnclee and of tha
snlwipplicatlon of the various department fundi, and
that It prcainte reliable eetlmate for legislative
action."
a
This is all that ever has been claimed for the
eode-budgct system. The farmer investigators, in
three typewritten pnges, make several auggeatlona of
helpful nature for minor changes, but instead of
complaining over the manner in which state work
la done, present a startling picture of the magnitude
of th task of the road building, welfare work, and
uch other mattere as the protection of agriculture
and labor.
Their main conclusion is the aame as any honest
aryl unprejudiced citizen would feel impelled to make
after atudying the state government at first-hand.
Not only do they find that the number of atata era-
ployes has been exaggerated, but that the code-budget
ayntem has put busineas methods in the management
of the people's affairs.
a
N) heavier Wow could be atruck at the partisan
movement that would tear down this structure as a
part of the tactics of a campaign for office. Thus,
through the dispelling of misinformation, is the fight
on the code-budget system dying as a political issue.
The less one knows about the state administrative
plan, the more apt one is to condemn it And the
more one learns about the code-budget system, the
ttru on i tire to nprrove it.
The platform of the republican party recognizes
the need for alterations and improvements in the
code-budget system. But it endorses the principle by
which two dozen boards and commissions were abol
ished and the government simplified and co-ordinated.
The democratic platform promises the abolishment
nf the entire code. In the last few years there have
HITT1N0 ON ALL SIX AGAIN.
It may be mere propaganda, and it may be a real
pointer, but up from the sunny south comes the pews
that winter resort hotel already are oversold for the
coming season. That is to aay, advance rtqueita for
reservations during the coming winter are in excess
of accommodations at command. If thia ia only a
feeler to atlmulnte lagging busincua, it may bring
the result from the unduly apprehensive; if It Is re
liable information, then it is in line with other advices.
Steel mills report August sales of fabricated stuff
equal to CS.6 per rent of shop capacity. The Bur
lington Is reported to have aent out to saw mills tho
biggest order for lumber filed in many months. Buy
ers in New York are reported as taking textile offer
ings at market prices, and placing a sufficient num
ber of orders to guarantee mill operation well into
the winter. Western millers' agent on the Atlantic
aeaboard expresa thrmaelvts as confident of increased
demand for flour made from western wheat.
Such a list can be greatly extended. It holds
several surfreatlve thoughts. One of these is that the
signing of the tariff bill did not produce the depres
sion promised by the democrats, who so dolefully
predicted all sorts of calamity in case the Fordney
McCumber bill became law. Another is that the ex
pected recovery, Incident to the return to power of
the republican party is being realized. Preservation
of the home market to the home producer is bound
to have a good effect.
War conditions are passing. Business is hitting
on all six in the United States just now, and that is
the best sign possible for anybody but a democratic
candidate running on a "platform of disapproval."

MODERN LAWS AND ANCIENT BONES.
Amherst college experts have a new occasion for
complaint against the Volstead act. They succeeded
during the summer in exhuming from the soil of west
ern Nebraska a splendid skeleton of a camel, which
roamed the glade of that region some time before
the present highly efficient irrigation ditch was exca
vated. These bone were carefully packed for ship
ment to Amherst, where they would bo now gracing
the museum of the very interesting Massachusetta
school, but for one untoward incident.
Scotts Bluff county, Nebraska, is as dry morally
as ita surface is arid naturally. What rain falla out
that way is just a teaser, and what "hootch" is dis
pensed is the more or less familiar home brew, which
ia indulged in surreptitiously. Time was when the
denizens of one of the sugar towns could slip across
the line to Kemcrer or some other Wyoming oasis
and secure a little relief, but nowadays even that Is
done under restraint so enfolding as to discourage
not been many democrats about the atatehouse in even the thirstiest. And the Amherst bones were dug
Lincoln. It would be an excellent thing if some of up jn Wyoming, and had to cross the Nebraska line
to get on board the cars, inis is wnere we vraneuy
I
the leaders of that party would visit ine capuoi aim
familiarize themselves with what actually has been
accomplished since they were expelled from office.
"WHAT'S IN A NAME?"
A Pittsburgh theater advertised a free exhibition
for school children, and the concrete floor in the
lobby broke down while the little ones were waiting
for the doors to open. On behalf of the proprietor
of the theater it should be stated that he was caught
with the little victims and seriously injured.
Here is another added to a dreadfully long list of
aimilar calamities. On general principles it is safe
to assume that ordinary precaution had been taken
to ensure security for the patrons of the theater.
That the floor was concrete testifies to the effort
made to make the atructure fireproof. Presumably
other safeguards were incorporated in the building,
but the disaster happened, just the same.
Somewhere in the fabric was contained a fatal
weakness. A miscalculation had been made, an error
had crept in, and the floor went down under what
aeems to be a ridiculously small weight for the floor
of a building that ia devoted to the purposes of a
theater. Terhaps an inquiry will fix responsibility
for the defect If so, then the uttermost punish
ment will be too light if the negligence was willful.
The lesson Is the oft-repeated one. Precautions
against accident in places of public assemblage can
not be too great. If excess Is to be shown, it should
be on the side of safety. Economy in construction
or in cost of operation ia entirely on the side of
profit, which ought never to weigh against the cle
ment of security. ..... v t
"What'a in a name?- The play to which the chil
dren were to be admitted free was called "The Trap."
RECORD MADE BY CONGRESS,
A determined effort already ia being made by the
democrat to reduce If not wipe out the present re
publican majority in congress. To achieve this, the
record of congress is being attacked, not by direct
methods, but by innuendo, half-truths, and misrepre
atnutions Intended to deceive those who have not
I time to fully exanjine into the record.

An enforcement officer at Mitchell, it is related,
suspected the package of being a new and novel
method of bringing the forbidden essence of corn
into the community, and consequently made official
inspection. Usually these inquiries are made with
much attention to detail, and this was no exception.
No contraband liquor was found, but one perfectly
good fossil skeleton was reduced to such condition
as to be of little service to Amherst or any otner
museum.
Modern laws make no provision for respect to
ancient bones. Yet it does seem a pity that some
body did not exercise a little common sense. The
college experts might have notified the county au
thorities, and so have saved the bones, or the authori
ties might have communicated with the college and
learned the nature of the package and its contents.
Too much zeal sometimes defeats its own ends.
ADVICE THAT IS GOOD AS NEW.
President Harding has designated October 9 as
"Fire Protection Day." It is an annual occurrence,
and all that it contains is perennial. Whatever of
advice is given here has been given before, and prob
ably will be given again. In other words? old as the
advice may be, it is as good as new, for it has been
used so little.
If heed were given to the word of admonition
uttered along about thia time, year after year, the
American burnt offering would be greatly lessened,
if not entirely abolished. Annually the fire loss in
this country amount to hundreda of million of dol
lars, and the sin of it all ia that just a little care
would prevent most of the sacrifices. For, no matter
how well insured the property may be, if destroyed
by fire it is a loss, for the Insurance only distributes
the loss.
Fire loss from controllable causes amounts to
about two-thirds of the total, which simply mean,
that carries method of looking after property i
responsible far the great national bonflr whose blae
astonishes the world. W shudder at th thought of
destruction wrought by war, and accept as merely a
regrettable incident the equally costly but wholly
avoidable damage wrought by preventable fires.

To the Editor of Th Omaha lice
Aa a former resident of Omaha, I
wish to have you publish state
ment from me In your paper re
garding a misrepresentation of the
11 of I'lnes. I have recently re
ceived letter from a number of
prominent men of Omaha, asklns;
ma to Inform them of the true con
dition on this Island.
In answer to letters which I have
received, I wish to state that I am
the Island dentist by profestdon, and
that I n in her to enaacn In tlint
work and not to advertise or sell
land, or to encoursse people from
the states to romj her to buy any
thing, lint, as I expect to make the
Ile of I'lnes my home for some
time. I think It my duty ss a citizen
to plve my friend In Nebraska a
truthful description of the people
and country.
Th climatic condition ar almost
perfect, as it Is seldom over 80, and
never bns been lower than about
CO end S5.
The water Is the finest In the
world. We have seversi noted
spring on the Island, which for
rheumatism nnd stomach troubles
are especially noted. The water Is
perfectly pure and In consequence
we have no typhoid fever or other
kindred diseases.
The cost of llvdna", while It Is
hlrrhrr in some things than In the
states, we ran offset that In the way
of heavy winter clothlna, and our
coal bills, and as wo never havo to
shovel snow to et to our business
rluces. that Is another Item.
About 75 per cent of the land Is
owned by Americans. The natives
are most friendly with the Ameri
cans, and are In most cases good
citlr.ons.
Our fruit Is all shipped bv Ameri
cans, but the Cubans do ship some
of the lumber and charcoal from
here to Cuba. There has been
shipped from here this season tip
to Heptember 10 about 100,000
crates of srrnpefrult: the lamest
year In the history of the Island for
enrly fruit, and we still nave a great
deal of later fruit to ship.
Our rainy Beason Is from July to
about the last of October each year,
and we then have rains quite often
during the whole year.
The vegetable season generally
commences in Bepiemner ana con
tinues until April nnd May. Tho
crops for shipment are peppers and
egtf plant for the eastern markets,
and watermelons, potatoes snd
other thinps for Cuoa. rouury
does well here, as we have but very
little If any diseases to contend wnn.
We have several residences on
the Island that have cost rrom
