This is the large order that has been presented to the legislature. It can not be filled according to any partisan prescription, but calls for the most thorough co operation of democratic, republican and progressive members. In his veto of the bill reducing the salaries of the heads of state departments Governor Bryan makes it plain that he has no thought of accepting any plan of government except his own. This un conciliatory attitude promises nothing except a tedious and profitless deadlock. Nor does it square with the opinion of members of his own party in the legislature. One can find in both houses a number of democrats who acknowledge that the code sys tem is right in principle, as a businesslike plan of definitely locating responsibility. During the campaign the main point of attack was the inspection forces maintained by various state offices. Although Bryan held these to be waste ful, in his proposal for a supreme council he did not eliminate any inspection force, but only redistributed them. It ib quite probable that by co-operating with the legislature an agreement can be reached to eliminate any possibility of dhplication among the various inspectors. In fact a measure is now before the legislature which would consolidate all these regu latory bodies except those connected with banking and insurance, which are highly specialized. Here is a starting point for agreement. It is a ticklish thing to propose the entire overturn of the form of government in Nebraska. Far better will it be to seek o'ut the specific faults and remedy them. There are other points at which Bryan’s plan and the proposals of republican leaders in the legislature might easily be harmonized. In the interest of economy, and at slight risk of efficiency certain of the departments, such as agriculture, labor and pub lic welfare, might be combined if their inspection features are grouped elsewhere. The sticking point comes with the question of the budget system, the keystone of the state business management. Under the Bryan plan the budget fig ures would be kept in the auditor’s office, while the state tax commissioner would supervise the making of estimate*. This scattering of a most responsible function is not in accord with any known principle of business or government, nor is the further suggestion that the power to scrutinize expenditures of the va rious institutions and departments be subjected to new limitations. The budget system must be saved. In the old djys, before the state finance department was estab lished, it was impossible to find out where the state funds had gone, or how fast they were being spent. It was due to the budget system that the special ses aion of the legislature was enabled to cut state ex penses one-third. If the taxpayers of Nebraska are to be relieved. ' it is not by abolishing all semblance of business man agement, nor by wrecking the entire organization of government in order to experiment with a new fad. Keep what is good in the state government, root out the bad—that is the injunction of the people to their legislators, of whatever party. PRIZE FIGHTING AND THE POLICE. Our state boxing iaw is bearing more and more of the fruit that was predicted for it, that is the disputes between those who back their fa.th in rival champions by wagering heavily on the outcome. Omit the hazard of the bet, and the average indi vidual would not care whether one or the other or both the combatant* won. This is not material, however, when we come to consideration of another phase of proceedings at the Municipal auditorium on Friday night. Under what authority the superintendent of police assumed to banish from Omaha the referee passes under standing. If Mr. Dunn had reason to think that a crime had been committed, one of which the Ne braska laws take notice, it was his duty to place the offender under arrest, and hold him until the law could deal with him. We do not know if the referee's decision were jest or unjust; some difference of opinion seems to be entertained on this point. Those who laid their money on the winner feel the referee is a veritable Daniel in judgment; those who bet on the visiting pugilist loudly proclaim objections to his decision. * In this the public is not interested. Whatever opin ion the referee may have expressed, it would yet be questioned by the losing side. Just why the superintendent of police should declare the loser the winner, other than in voicing his individual belief, is not clear. In his official ca pacity he is expected to see that order is main tained, the law enforced, and the peace of the city protected. When he goes about to decide the cut come of prize fights, and to banish from the city referees whose views differ from hij, we believe he is getting away from the dignity of his office. And the prize fighters are going about the surest way to get their game suppressed in Omaha by in dulging in such uproars as that of Friday night. MOUNT LASSEN AN AGGRAVATION. It being the off-season of the year, with only forty-four legislatures and one congress in session, Mount Lassen, our only active volcano, coyly emits clouds of steam. This mountain does not Heem to understand what is incumbent upon it. Why should the greatest repifblic of all history, the land of greatest opportunity and greatest" achievement, not also have the greatest active volcano in all the world, instead of one that is a little more than half dead? To be sure, In Hawaii we have Mauna Loa, Kilauea and Hualalai, all taking high rank among volcanoes, and in Alaska several noted trouble breeders exist. This, however, is not enough to meet the demand. If Mexico can afford a peak like Popocatpetl, Peru a Chimborazo, Italy u Vesuvius, Sicily a Stromboli, and Iceland a Ilecln, the United States ought, to have something more worthy our importance in other directions than Mount Lassen. Here is a chance for some lawmaker. Either en large. and Improve this volcano, or else remove it and set up one that will be commensurate with the dig pity and importance of the American eagle CAPITULATIONS AND CONCESSIONS. The peace conference at Lausanne broke down because the Turkish delegates were unwilling to sign a treaty which continues the concessions granted to foreigners by the old government. The Angora gov ernment asks that all these be abrogated, and a new deal started. Some of the capitulations complained of by Ismet Pasha date from the time of Mohammed II, and were by him carried over in form from the Byeantine empire, which he supplanted 500 years ago. These have been modified, added to, and numerically ex tended, until at present the greater part of the Turkish government is in some way affected by one or another of the rights granted to foreign powers. It is but natural that the Turk should undertake to secure relief from such conditions. So far as these capitulations were to secure minorities resident in Turkey against the rigors of Islam when expressed in politics, they have been violated many times by the Turks, and these viola tions have been in most cases condoned; such of the concessions as touch on finances and commerce have been more scrupulously observed. The Turk is not d trader or a manufacturer; he has or pro fesses to have ambitions to become both. Proceed ings at Lausanne show he has advanced as a politician, yet how far he is to be relied on is not made plain. On the other hand, the subjects of powers to whom capitulations have been granted have ob tained extensive interests in Turkey under them, and naturally look to their governments for pro tection. Whatever adjustment is made should have some consideration for these. The enforced migra tion of Greeks from Turkey and Turks from Greece can not settle all the questions of property and other similar rights that are involved. When all this is understood and admitted, no excuse is provided for the breakdown of the Near East peace conference. Obdurate insistence on extreme demands, by both sides; small concessions grudgingly given, and a general disposition to dis agree rather than to come together, have been the outstanding features of that meeting. We still do not believe that a further war will follow, for none o't the contracting parties is desirous of war. France may break entirely with England, and deal separately with the Turk, but such a course would probably cost her far more in the long run than she could gain from Turkey. The more reasonable view is that a new confer ence will meet, at which the delegates will not be bound by so rigid instructions, and the peace sought may be established. One thing may aa well be accepted, and that is Turkey is on a different footing at present than when the Treaty of Sevres was framed, and, feeling her national strength and unity, will exert a greater influence. THE SAND HILLS. Those who were enabled to make short side trips into the sand hills section of Nebraska dur ing normal times, and have that privilege now, can not help but remark upon the changes. Seven years ago, many pleasant little homes, where happy families were working in unity, to build up a home atmospher and community life, stand deserted. These newly built, well preserved dwellings do not give that feeling of depression which steals upon the consciousness of the observer when his gaze -falls on an old home falling into decay. Instead, the blood stirs with a new vigor as one pictures the possibilities which are repre sented for youth, health and determination. The rich prairie grass, whether green or cured without cutting, offers nourishing food upon which cattle will feed and grow fat until late winter if the ground remains free from snow as it has this win ter. Many farmers and stockmen realize this and send their cuttle and horses to feed from this grass after the limited pasturage of the corn belt has been exhausted. These am returned to the owners with the first snows of winter in good condition. At one time these hills were dotted with large herds of cattle the year round. Since thq financial u’.ieavai following the war, many of those who appeared to have a fair start in growing feed ers for the stockmen of the corn belt have been closed out, to ‘tart anew in some line of work that requires little or no capital, and cattlemen receive their feeders from neighboring states. However, the hills and prairie grass are still there in better condition than ever before. The tall, heavy grass, falling into decay, has enriched the soil, and the sand hills are becoming richer each year. The- small groves of pines, set for ex perimental purposes, are flourishing and prove the truth of the assertion that the sand hills country will, some day, furnish sites for many of Nebras ka’s ideal homes. Our ocean-borne commerce may be declining, but we submit that the record of 80,230,962 long tons of freight, incoming and outgoing, is a fair record. This will look better when it is remembered that a “long” ton contains 240 pounds more than the common or garden variety of ton used to meas ure coal, hay and the like. Omaha has* tlireo^ conventions to entertain th’s week, if anyone is interested in knowing how the city’s hospitality is enjoyed. British police do not carry guns, but they get along fairly well in the discharge of their duties. Another indication of spring’s approarh is that King Ak is clearing the decks for action. Marriage by mutual agreement usually ends in court with similar unanimity. Sign/)f the seafcon: Farmers are looking up seed corn. No epidemic of flu? Well, who wants one?

Lead me -not to fame where simple little tilings are treasured none, Let me be a human being till my duty h»s been done, Let me love the kindly mortals who have lifted me from woe, And reward them *s I'm able in the truest way I know. Let me envy not another his possessions and his play, Let tny force of will be master to my anger day bv day.

From the Oacsola Record. A careful analysis of the Bryan , budget as presented to the legislature last Thursday will give the taxpayers of Nebraska the first sharp awaken ing that they are due to get ns n re sult of the faith they pinned to Bry an’s promises as a tux saver, which he made during the campaign. This paper han no criticism on the cutB proposed by the governor, except that wo do not see how the necessity of making the farming Interests bear the brunt of the same and the school sys tem take the balance. The point the Record desires to call attention to at this time is the fact that after all l here Is no trick nor sleight of hand In this tax saving matter, as some democrats, whose mouths worked on the hair trigger plun, told the voters no easily during tho campaign. Their plain confession now is that the taxes they will save do not come from the coda abolition plan at all. Scarcely a cent of the whole six millions that Mr. Bryan is recommending sliced off will be slashed as a result of his code fight, even if his recommenda tions are followed. There Is now no longer any need for these gentlemen or their friends anywhere to deceive themselves about the oodelbill costing this state the taxes they said It did, for taxes will be cut down by a square cut on appropriations of the kind we always had, long before there was any code law in the state. The wisdom of the trimming that Mr. Bryan proposes to give the ap propriations is a thing that will take time to reveal. There Is no doubt that a lot of activities which the state has had could be gotten along without, and his plan Is to get along without them or cut the price of hav ing them very materially. The $10, 000,0410 bonus is a thing that is hit ting the'democratic economy plan a lick in the eye and It will be very in teresting to watch. They have all been very ready to criticise every bonus step that has been taken, wheth er by the federal government or by the state government, and now that the job will be put up squarely be fore them. It will be good to see how they will move. One of the very Interesting things about the Bryan budget is the*bill for $10,000 for upkeep and repair of the governor's mansion. Neville got along with $3,500 and McKelvie got along with $4,600. Now Mr. Bryan i wants more than double what either of them had. and this in tho face of j the fact that there has already been a repair bill paid for out of state funds for the Bryan bi<*nnlum. Looks 1 after all very much like Mr. Bryan | is like most other democrats, It don't worry him so much about the high appropriations when the appropria tions aro pointing Bryanward. Nor 1 was there any recommendation of a cut In the Bryan salary IntheBrvan budget—did you notice that? These 1 little matters are all very Interesting in tho light of the pledges made to i the people when Bryan was running 1 last fall. The Novel’s Collapse. From the Spokane spok-aman Review Th» novel began a* "a little and new thing," this phrase being a lit oral rendering of the Julian diminu tive from which our language formed the word "novel," hut the term his realized when wo think of such Brob dingnagian "novel*” as Tolstoi's 'Anna Karenina." The enormous ex pansion of the word to cover such works formed the first symptom of the iruo novel's disintegration. Between the Action that file low brow loosely calls a novel and the Action to winch the highbrow re stricts the name little In common ex " ts. The first form of Action keeps iho -tory or plot, lint the second has long been losing it to other factors. The process began early in the pre ceding century, and the close of rn mam ir ism in Knglish literature, such as Scout almost coincides with the opening of the novel s disintegration. The novelist came to think that he Daily Prayer Tor thi* e»ua** also. ainro th* day we heard it. do not «-»axr to pray for you, and to desire that ye might t>« filled with the know ledge of Ilia will j-i alt wisdom and apiritoal understanding; tha» *• might walk worthy of th« Lord unto all ; I*--HI**. t»-tng fruitful In - very go t v. ork, and increasing in the know ledge «.f «;•> !

About 1850 he thought that faithful ness to the mere fact and real rep resentation of life set his true task. After 18S0 the vogue of Tolstoi and Dostoievskl dealt another blow to the old idea that the novel should tell a story as well as dissect human nature to death. Now we have the era of shapeless bulks called novels, such as Proust’s productions. The so-called novel of today is an other species, speaking biologically, than tlie novel of Fielding or of James. Survival of the Fittest. From dr* 8t. Paul Pioneer Frees. The automobile produetion figures for 1922 as compiled by the census department exceed those recently an nounced by the Automobile Chamber of Commerce and make a really re markable showing. For the year the output of passenger cars was 2,334, 171, as compared with 1,435,161 in 1921: and of trucks 243,049, against 147.009. The motor car organisation predicted that nearly 50 per cent more r are would be produced this year: the cenaus department does not indulge in forecasts. It is a debatable question whether the country can absorb next year the incredible number of 3.300,000 new cars, anil it is an interesting question what will be the effect upon prices. If the country is or is not ready for that many new ones. The growing opinion Is that the manufacture of cars is likely to be subjected to t lie test of a survival of the fittest, which means, in this case, not the best car, but the beBt facilities for manufac ture. Quantity production is becom ing more than ever the order of the times. Wliat I.aws Have Done. From fhe New York Herald. The simple life is no more The ■-..id dest thing about it is even that old fashioned statesmen like Calvin Cool idge are not getting us back in the general direction of simplicity. In Washington and in dozens cf state capitals thousands of men vie wiih one another in a magnificent effort to pile up the machinery that makes life more and more a mass of rules.

Common Sense On Ihe Child Who Is Not so Dearly Loved. In many families there Is one child who is not as dearly loved by the : parents as the other children. Some parents do not make an effort to conceal this fact, with the result that ths child grow* up feeling that it matters little what becomes of him. that no one has any special interest in him. If a child gets the Idea that ljls par ents do not love him as mueh as his brothers and sisters. It Is but natural* for him to think them Is no such . thing as real love. This results in a 1 fe of much secret sorrow and s distrust of the sincerity that anyone may expre-s for him. The child who feels he is not as near and dear to Ills parents as Ins broth ers and sisters is going to lose Inter est in his home end have little f ilth in what his parents ray he should or should not do for his own Rood A condition of this sort in a child's life is a tragedy * Parents should have s« deep * feel ing for one rhlld as they have f r a other,, if they have not they should make every pos-ihl<* effort to ke-p the fact from the knowledge of tho one who is less favored by them.

Debate* Europe'* Woe*. Omaha.—To tho Editor of The ■ Omaha Bee: In the Omaha Bee, date : of February 2, in "The People's Voice” columns, there appeared an article entitled "The European Crisis'' over the name of one A. I,, Meyer, who strongly advocates Immediate as sistant*! from tha United States In behalf of Germany In her now dir* predicament. Iteuding this article reminds one i of the old saying: "It depends on jvhose bull is being gored." One would draw the conclusion from reading this article that Germany had been com mcndably good, hut thfct now ruthless hands were being laid upon her with ! great oppression, and without just cause, and on account of all this unjust, oppression the United States should immediately come to Germany's rescue and not only demand that France im mediately desist, hut that France "va moose " 'clear out, "scheedaddle in Ftanter." It now' seems true that Germany has nowhere else to go for help and sympathy than to the United States, yet the sound of the firing lines where thousands of our American boy* an swered the last great call has not suf ficiently died away to permit a hurried handshake of greeting acros* the ocean to create undue haste in offer ing perhaps premature assistance. It would aecm to the average mind that a most propitious time to have thought of all this disaster was early In the year 1914, Jyst before Germany boastfully started out to conquer the world, but, seemingly. Instead of any suc4 contemplated thoughts she was rather contemplating plans to drop bombs on our coast cities after con quering the nation she now deplores as her great oppressor. But whose bull is being gored now’ When it was the other fellow's, all good and well, but when It is our own, then, it is all wrong. He also says: "If France Is per mitted to proceed In her present tar tics the effect will be most disastrous." I.et me ask: Could anything more disastrous be conceived In the mind of man than the German drive Nebraska Ideas Having revolutionized the industrial world and evolved a plan to introduce a delightfully Eutopian money system, Henry Furd’gives a transient glance at agriculture and discovers what is the matter with that great industry'- i All of the atcrage operations of tho farm can be handled in 21 days, he discovers.
