' WHAT THE PEOPLE EXPECT.
The citizenship of Nebraska will not expect the
impossible of the incoming state administration. No
matter how efficient and capable Governor Mc
Mullen’s administration may he, there will be those
who carp and criticize. But they are those who could
not be satisfied, anyhow, so whatever they may say
will be deserving of practically no attention. Tax
payers generally, however, hate a right to expect
some things. They have a right to expect the adop
tion of a comprehensive road building program that
is not all cluttered up by political pettifogging and
playing for position. They have a right to expect
such a revision of the revenue laws that the burden
of taxation will he equalized. They have a right to
expect a cessation for the time being of legislative
interference with legitimate business and further
efforts at so-called reform legislation that is in the
last analysis nothing more than the efforts of a few
to compel everybody to be as good as the fbw think
they are.
The people have a right to expect economy in
the expenditure of public money, but have no de
sire to be parsimonious in the care and treatment of
the state’s wards.
In short, the citizens of Nebraska hav« a right
to expect a businesslike administration Instead of
an administration of self-seeking and personal ag
grandizement. Only a few expect the impossible,
and even they would not be satisfied if they se
cured it.
Governor McMullen will enter upon his duties
as chief executive with a republican legislature in
rharge of the law-making. With a single exception
his fellow state officials are republicans. He will
surround himself with republican advisors and sup
porters.
The sum of it all is that the republican party in
Nebraska is again on trial. It can give the com
monwealth such an administration as to insure re
publican control for many years to come. The peo
ple have a right to expect that kind of an admin
istration. The Omaha Bee believes that they will in
no wise be disappointed. A level-headed, experi
enced business man will be in the chair of the chief
executive. What appears to he one of the best
equipped legislatures in Nebraska's history will con
vene and back up the governor in bis every effort
looking toward efficiency and economy.
WHY CHARLEY SURVIVES.
Why is it that amidst the crashing of democratic
hopes and the desolation of democratic defeat,
Charley Pool usually survives when all other demo
crats are lost? That question has been asked a
thousand time*. It has never been satisfactorily an
swered, especially in the opinion of Charley'* de
feated opponents. When the seemingly impossible
happens, why waste time in trying to explain how it
happened?
But one may gain some idea of why Charley Pool
usually arrives when his associates on the ticket are
indefinitely delayed, by taking note of his recent
compilation of the vote cast at the last Nebraska
election. Compiling, tabulating and printing the
voto is one of Charley’s official duties, of course.
Other secretaries of state have been charged with
the same duty. But other secretaries did not do it
the way Charley has. Being an old newspaper man,
he knSw Just how to do it right, and the result of
his compilation is the best set of elections returns
ever filed in the archives of a newspaper to be used
for future reference. The complete vote by coun
ties for every executive state office, the vote by dis
tr!cts and by counties for every member of the leg
islature, and the vote hv counties nnd bv district for
every nonpartisan candidate on the ballot—it is all
there. easily found and handily tabulated.
No effort is hpre made to explain Chnrlev Pool's
vote$fVetting ability. It is merely intimated fbat it
<• nsfcfully hard to beat a man who knows bis job
end does bis durnedest to perform it to the satis
faction of the people, fharley may stub bis political
toe ’some of these days, but when be does, the re
publican who succeeds him is going to have to go
seme if he improves the work in the office of secre
tary of state.
WHO’LL PAY THE LOUD SPEAKER?
Having established the freedom of the sea, up
to e. certain point, and equally the freedom of the
land, up to a certain point, the next in order is the
freedom of the air. The certain point referred to
i* that we permit no monopoly on sea or in land.
Any man has a right to sail the one nr acquire a
x’ested interc*t in the other. Lanes of travel on
either must always be kent free
In the air the nuedion of navigation is serious
enough, hut it is mildly benevolent romnsred to the

all around the earth nightly epioy the pleasure of
listening in, fishing for distance, swearing at the
itatie, and doing the many other things that afford
arplr for cryptic conversation between the "hugs
during the day. And all of this rn«t« money, Actual
spinning expenses af a great broadcasting aia
J
tion mount well up into thousands.of dollars each 1
year. There is practically no revenue.
A time is not far away when some measure will
have % be adopted to defray the cost of maintain
ing the great distributing stations. Secretary
Hoover, who Is supervising wireless communication
so far as anything of the sort goes in this country,
says the British' system of licensing is not possible.
Unlicensed listeners could not be kept “off the air.”
He inclines to the belief that a sales tax on radio
equipment and supplies might be adopted, and that
it would provide enough revenue to pay for good
programs, if nothing more. Also, he says, radio can
not live on a steady diet of jazz.
Somebody will have to pay the loud speaker.
Who will it be?
THE DAY AFTER.
“The shouting and the tumult dies.” Another
Christmas has passed into the limbo of things that
were. Was it like many another Christmas of by
gone years, or have we gathered from it a fuller
realization of what Christmas really means?
Shall we look back on it as merely another
Christmas day, or shall we take its richer and fuller
meaning into our every-day walk and talk and
thought throughout the year until the dawning of
another Christmas? It is only as the world grasps
in fact, what Christmas teaches in spirit, and car
ries that spirit into public and private life, not one
day only, but all days, that it is able to grow better.
It is only as the Christmas glow is carried over to
light thp succeeding days that the darkness of de
spair is dispelled, faith renewed and hope strength
ened.
Could this old wdrld for but a single year carry
thp spirit of good will so evident on Christmas day
into every day, war rumors would die away, racial
hatreds would diminish to the vanishing point,
creedal difference would bp forgotten, and the long
sought brotherhood of man and Fatherhood of God
well on their way to full fruition.
But this is the day after. In too many hearts
warmed yesterday by the Christmas spirit, there has
come a chill. Too many purses opened tempqrarily
for the succor of the needy have been closed tight
for another twelve-month. Too many made neigh
bors yesterday by the spirit of Christmas have gone
back to be only near dwellers.
When the Christmas spirit ceases to be the tem
porary emotion of a day and becomes the fixed prin
ciple of humanity, then will we see in reality what
Tennyson visioned ;
"When the war drums throb no longer
And the battle flags are furled
In the parliament of man,
The Federation of the World.”
GOVERNMENT BY TECHNICALITY.
George E. Taylor, stamp clerk in a postoffice sub
station at Richmond, Va., was accused of stealing
$30. Placed on trial he was acquitted, on motion
of the government attorney, who found that Taylor
had been the victim of a dishonest auperior. This
was in 1911.
Fully exonerated and cleared from all suspicion
of crime, Taylor at once sought reinstatement In
the postal service. His petition went to Postmaster
General Hitchcock, then to Burlesorr, and finally to
Hays, who laid the case before Presiedent Harding.
An executive order was signed, restoring Taylor to
service in the postoffice. Thirteen days later he
was dismissed, the comptroller general holding that
he had passed the age where reinstatement in the
service would he legally impossible. Now a bill is
pending to pay his thirteen years’ salary, forfeited
through what all admit was a gross injustice. Sym
pathizing with the purpose of the bill, Postmaster
General New objects because it may establish a dan
gerous precedent.
All agree that a grievous wrong wa« done Tay
lor. Presidents, attorneys general, district attor
neys, judges of the federal court, everyone who has
come into contact with the case, admits that Taylor
suffered injustice at the hands of the government he
had served faithfully and well. All would like to
repair as far as possible the injury done. But all
feel bound and helpless in the maze of red tape
that surrounds governmental operation. A more
perfect exhibition of the rigidity of bureaucratic
methods could scarcely be imagined. Government
by technicality is supreme.
Congress should not hesitate to establish the
precedent the postmaster general fears. Our gov
ernment can very well afford to risk any future
in order that so grave a wrong may be righted as
far as is possible to Ho by the payment of bark
salary. When time ran be found it might he in
ordrr to go over thp mass of "precedent” that has
accumulated since the foundation of government,
and see if some can not he discarded. In a private
business it would not have required fifteen minutes
to have restored Taylor to his duties, and the process
should he as easy in the government service.
According to Juliet Oapulet,, "Jove laughs at
lover’s vows." We wonder what the court will say
to the husband who promised to pay his wife $fifi a
month, and who is now being sued for 14 years'
wages by her.
If congress had worked as hard at its job last
spring, the present holiday vacation would not be
haunted hy the program that awaita the coming
of the new year.
However, Saranac Lake, New York, with 31
below gets the cup from Medicine Hat.
Our idea of no way to apend the time is getting
lost in a sleet atorm in southern Missouri.
Governor Bryan moves right in, and sits him
down, then moves right out again.
