PASS THE MATHERS BILL.
A practical plan for reorganizing the government
of Nebraska has been presented by Speaker A. N.
Mathers. It should be accepted by all parties in the
legislature and an end be made to the controversy
that has dragged now too long.
By transferring the functions now performed
by the six code departments to four of the elective
officials numerous economies become possible. In
the first place $30,000 in salaries paid to the heads
of the departments would be cut off. The consolida
tion of all inspection work of three departments un
der the secretary of state would make both for
economy and efficiency. These two things, the sal- i
aries and the inspectors, were targets for much ora- |
tory during the campaign.
The people of Nebraska do not care greatly how
the necessary business of government is carried on,
-.0 long as it is done well and cheaply. The people
desire above all things a reduction of taxes, but
they are not willing to accept this boon at the ex
pense of such things as good schools and good roads.
The Mathers plan is a money-saver, but it is so drawn
that it will not cripple any necessary activity.
Partisanship must be dropped at such a time as
this. The fact that the democratic platform called
for the grouping of code offices in a way closely re
sembling that proposed by Speaker Mathers has not
prevented republican support of the measure. It
should make the proposal all the more acceptable
to the democrats, yet thus far they have fought it
bitterly. This partisan fire should be cooled and the
question regarded as the speaker suggests, simply ,
as a public matter in which no color of politics should
be allowed to enter.
No intention lies at the back of this amendment j
to infringe on the powers of which Governor Bryan I
is so jealous. In its simplicity and workability it is
superior to the Bryan code. If anything, it will be
more economical. If the present system is to he
altered. Mr. Mathers’ plan is the one behind which
no legislator should hesitate to stand.
“DR. HALE’S BABIES.'*
City folk3 who are familiar with hospitals, “twi- ,
light sleep,’’ and other modern conveniences, do not j
rnderstand what the approach of the stork means in
places remote from the comforts and triumphs of i
science. At any rate, these things are of recent j
contrivance or discovery, for the time is not so very !
far gone in the pust when the event was accompanied j
i>y great discomfort and real danger.
And here is where the good old family doctor
came into action, lie was more than “philosopher, j
guide and friend” to the young father and mother.
He was the agent of the creator, on whose skill and
-ympathy depended the outcome of a great crisis, jf
Two lives were in his keeping, and as he applied his :
knowledge and manual dexterity these were made
certain, and the world happier because a baby had
come into it. Only those who went through the ex- ,
perience will know the anxiety and worry that at- |
tended the occasion, and the reassurance afforded
by the presence of the doctor in whom nil confidence .
vested, and on whom was laid the most sacred of
responsibilities.
We are pleased to note that out in Ravenna a
number of residents have organized a society to be j
known as “Dr. Hale’s Babies, being a tribute to
one of Buffalo county’s pioneer doctors. They
will set up a monument to his memory, he havinv
closed 36 years of active practici by going on to his
(ternal reward. Those babies who grew up are hon
oring themselves in honoring the doctor who attended
at their advent into this world.
His monument, however, will not be the shaft
they propose to set up in his name. It is builded
firmer and truer in their hearts. Men and women
l ie grateful, in spite of some belief to the contrary,
i rd do carry in memory the servici s ol such a man
Dr. C. A. Hale of Ravenna.
LESSON IN FRED THOMPSON’S LIFE
A vagrant news item will be of interest to some
of the older resident* of Omaha, and may hold
something of a moral tor the younger. I' teds ot
bow the widow of the late Frederick Thompson is
trying to induce the managers of the New lork
Hippodrome to devote part of the program on the
anniversary of that gTeat theater’s opening to the
memory of her husband. He conceived and built
the Hippodrome, and died in poverty.
Twenty-five years ago two of the most popular
Mid enterprising young men of Omaha were ‘ h red
Thompson and “Skip” Dundy. Thompson was an
engineer and architect, Dundy a promoter, and they
had certain amusement concessions at the I rans
1’iississippi exposition, then about to open its ga
i u the public. They put over several successful en
terprises in the amusement line, and with the capi
tal thus provided set upon a career that led them to
the veiy top of their line. Luna I’ark, nt Coney
Island, was created by Thompson & Dundy, and
finally the great Hippodrome came into existence
through the genius of Thompson.
Misfortune overtook the firm, and its member -
ns well. Full of amusement ideas, able to conceive
;,ud bring forth several novel ways to give the pub
lic a thrill or a laugh, neither one nor the other
oas a good business man in the sense that neither
seemed endowed with the faculty of holding on to
1 any portion of the wealth that poured in on them.
Others have reaped where they sowed.
Mrs. Thompson is working as a dressmaker to
keep soul and body together. Her appeal will be
made bo men who have succeeded with the Hippo
drome, but who have forgotten, if they ever knuw,
who “Fred” Thompson was. Perhap* it will be a*
apII to let him rest in the peace of the tomb, and
vet he docs deserve to have some credit for the big
things he did while living.

CRIME A POOR PAYMASTER.
A young man has been occupying considerable
front page space in the Omaha and Cleveland papers
lately. He achieved this by means of an over-excited
imagination, confessing to having committed a terrible
| murder, and seemingly inspired to do this by a de
) sire to escape trial ftfr another crime.
Whatever he reckoned on, his calculations were
j faulty, for they did not take into consideration the
workings of the law he thought himself capable of
I befooling. His story, told with definiteness and some
j detail, was only worth its face value, and subject
j to the test of careful examination by men who are
trained to scrutinize just such tales. When sub
^ jected to the acid of legal processes of analysis, the
I confession broke down, and the youth was exoner
ated from his self-assumed guilt of a heinous crime.
However, the law has yet a hold on him, and he
j will go back to the Ohio city to face a charge on
| which there is good chance of convicting him. If
j found guilty, he faces a sentence of life.
A more serious predicament scarcely could con
front a youth. This one seems to be a wayward, but
not entirely bad boy. His solicitude for his mother
indicates that he is not entirely lost to the promptings
of good, but. his conduct justifies the persistence
with which the law pursues him.
Only on one theory can he he explained. He is
suffering from an aggravated ego. Crime appeals
to him because of its excitement. He has found it
easier to steal than to work. Released from prison,
where he finished a term for theft, he immediately
resorted to theft to get money. A job offered too !
prosaic a method of securing capital. He will have |
ample time to study out his own peculiarities before
he is free to prey again, and it may be he will dis- j
cover the mistake he has made.
A life in prison is quite as dull as any led by a j
working man outside, with the added restriction of |
' liberty when off duty. A working man has certain
hours of the 24 that are his own, a convict does not. j
If nothing else should restrain one from crime, it j
is that honest labor pays better in the end.
This boy, like the beautiful model in New York,
has paid too high a price for a little excitement. She '
is murdered at 27, just when her young life should
be the fullest of zest. He faces a life term in prison ;
I at 23, just when other young men are laying plans
and building hopes for the big things they are to do i
I in the world. It is sad, hut “the wages of sin is
j death."
THE CITY BEAUTIFUL.
The civic community service division of the Ne
i braska Federation of Women’s Clubs has spent some
' time on the study of ‘‘The City Beautiful.'’ This
! has been narrowed down by those planning the
work to the home and community in which each
woman lives and is especially interested. The work
takes into consideration the preservation of trees,
shrubbery and flowers, as well as the care and beau
tifying of the home lawn, school yards and the rail
road right-of-way.
J? each individual would Fpend a few spare mo
ments each day in the cultivation and care of shade
trees, blue grass, or flowers, the stranger would
carry away a different impression of Nebraska towns,
fo the condition of the parkings and lawns has much j
to do with the genera! appearance of the whole
street.
Many cities and villages have a distinguishing ]
mark which sets them apart and makes them stand
out from other towns in the memory. It may be
the cleanline and sanitation, a .perfect lighting
system, beautiful lawns and parkings, or a perfect '
f stretch of road that attracts. Portland, Ore., will
I always stand out in the memory of the tourist be
cause of the Columbian highway, that beautiful
stretch of paved road following the river and en
tering the city from the east, and from which can
be seen many natural beauties and wonder*.
To come closer home, what beauty-loving -oui
can pass through certain portions of Fremont dur
ing the summer months without carrying away a
vision' of beautiful homes, clinging t ines, stately
trees, green lawns and bowers of lovely flower*?
Then there is. Meadow Grove in >ladison county,
which received special mention by some of Eng
land's road experts n a good roads meeting held
across the Atlantic, because of the danger signal
forcing the automobile driver to stop, think and us*
i caution before crossing the tracks of the Chicago
Ac Northwestern just outside the town. The perfec
tion of this signal has not only caused this little vil
lage of less than 500 people to stand out from other
towns, but has also set Nebraska apart from all
other states in the union on this one point of per
fection.

The Song of Three Friends
A Novel in Verse by Nebraska’s Poet Laureate,
John G. Neihardt.
For some days The Omaha Hoe will run upon this page extracts from
' “The Song of Three Friends" with explanations that will keep the thread
j of the story. This poem, published by the Macmillan company, in 1919,
was the occasion of the award to its author, John O. Xelhardt, of the prise
! of *500 given bv the Poetry Society of America for the beat poem by an
American published during Mic year. It is well for the reader to bear
i in mind that the story is historically true. It is concerned with the second
expedition of the American Fur company from Si. Louis up tho Missouri
river to its Junction with the Yellowstone, anti the futrher adventures of
; the three comrades at the mouth of the Musselshell.
After the introduction, the tale opens with the division failed "The
Up-Stream Men:"

Already there were robins in the land.
Home-keeping men were following the
plows
And through tlie smoke-thin greenery
of boughs
The scattering wildfire of the fruit

Behold them starting northward, if
you can.
Dawn flares across the Mississippi's
tide;
A tumult runs along the waterside
Where, scenting an event, St. Bourn
throngs.
Above the buzzling voices soar the «
songs
Of waiting boatmen—lilting ehansun
ettcs
Whereof the meaning laugh*, the ]
music frets.
Nigh weeping that such gladness can-'
not stay.
In turn, the herded horses snort and
neigh
Bike panic bugles. 1'p the gangplanks

Co streams of trappers, rushing goods

The snub-built keellioats. squat with
seeming sloth—
Baled three-point blankets, blue and
scarlet cloth,
Bum. powder, flour, guns gaudrrie*
and lead
And all about, goodbyes are being
said.
Oauche girls with rainy April in their
gaze

the days
Between this parting and th» wedding
morn.

And now commands are hollowed, boat

Haughtily in the dawn: the tumult
swells.
The two-screw, shouldering the long
cordell es
Slack from the mastheads, lean upon
the sag.
The keelboata answer lazily and drag
Their blunt prows slowly In the glided
tide.
A steersman sing.-, and up the river
side
The gay contagious ditty spreads and
runs
Above the shouts the uproar of guns.
The nickering of horses
So they say.
Went forth a hundred singing men
that day:
And girlish April went head of them.
The music of her trailing garment'3

Alight yet almost surprise her In the

Of sorcery: for. ever as <!*•■%- strove,
A gray green smudge in every poplar

Proclaimed the recent kindling. Aye.

That bird and bush and tree had only

Of song and leaf and blossom, till
they heard
The young men's feet: when tree and
hush and bird
Unleashed the whole conspiracy of

Pale green was every slough about
the Kaw;
About the I’i.ltte. pale green was
every slough:
And still the pale green lingered at
the Sioux,
So close they trailed the marching
of the South.
But when they reached 'he Niobrara's
mouth
The witchery of spri-.tr had taken
flight
And like a girl grown woman over
night,
Toung summer cio*ed.

A ebraska Editor s Give
f
Views on Extending Fed
eral Aid to Farmers.
Norfolk Frees.
Mario Weekes: The farmer needs
cash not credit, for i rcdlt mean* debt
i and too much debt is what is the mat
! ter with the farmer now. Instead of
law* to help him into more debt h"
needs prices for his product* that will
help him out of debt. Renewal of a
debt is not payment thereof and our
j local bunks are friendly enough and
I businesslike enough to extend all the
| credit good for any of us if they are
left free of Wall Street dictation.'
Ilriningord Ix-dger.
t Farmers with rredit can get all the
money needed. Without security they
'•an borrow no money under the pro
] posed state law. TJiey need increased
, price to grower and lower freight
‘ Vites so they can produce with a mar
gin of profit instead of loss. Farmers
• need no more credit. What they need
is some naans of paying off the re
suit of too much credit. House Roll
No. 7 is not favored here.
McCook Tribune.
V M. Klmnieli: Western Nebraska
farmers and stockmen are particular
ly interested in two phases of the fed
eral rural credit law. tho*<- which In
crease loan amount* and lengthen time
of payment. Roth are essential in
1 their business, hence they expect re
lief from the law. These give the
! farmer more favorable action on hi*
I lengthy turnover, especially in stock.
Hildreth Telescope.
The new federal farm credit bin
may furnish temporary relief to the
farmer. It is good as far as it goes,
but it does not entirely solve the prob
lem. A fair price tor his products,
Waver freight rates, lower prices in
the goods he must buy—ill these are
necessary because the farmers' con
dition can he readjusted to a perma
j cent basis for prosperity.
Gordon Journal.
Dwight P. Griswold: I do not ex
i pect the new farm credit law to give
much relief. Those with good secur
ity ran already get what they need,
uml judging from past experience with
government loaning agencies others
will be unable to borrow from them.
Since our exports of farm product* t
last year w»re the largest In history
and are expected to grow smaller as
iiurope again taker up agriculture it
seems that the only true relief will
come through flee reus-si production.
This will naturally occur as farming
i* unprofitable and big wages can be
secured in other Industries.
