According, to this view, the pro posed amendment should have been l published not later than August 6, to have brought' it within the rule. But the Omaha Bee and eminent attorneys in Nebraska maintain that the matter of publication is not sential. That the language of the constitution is merely "directory" as to the time and manner of publica uon. lhat the will ot the people is the main thing and that it would be absurd to nullify the will of the people through the blunder of a secretary of state or mistake of a newspaper man. This reasoning appeals to one's com mon sense. It is right and it probably was a mistake for our constitution makers to prescribe details which it is so difficult to enforce in so impor tant a matter. But is not a question of what our constitution makers should have done or what would be just and right for our courts to hold. It is a question of what they actually did and whether our courts shall view the commands of the constitution as mandatory or as merely directory. And our courts can be expected to act as other courts have acted under similar conditions. In other words it can be expected, and in this case it is to be feared, tiiat our courts would follow precedent in construing our constitution and the weight of author ity seems to be on the side-of constru ing constitutional-provisions as man datory. In Montana a few years ago the same question which has been raised in Nebraska arose under a constitu tion which has the same constitutional provisions requiring three months pub lication of constitutional amendments, The secretary of state in that case re quired only two weeks publication. Although the amendment carried, it was hulified by ahe court in a decision which gives an exhaustive review of Mr. Gul8ha'8lPrevKU8 decisions, lne case is re ported in Pacific Reporter, State vs Tooker, 37: 840. The following language is used by the court: -"In considering the provisions of our own constitution and in the light of the decisions, we are clear ly of the opinion that the requir- -ment so publish notices of a pro - posed amendment ' for three months is not only mandatory, but that it is an essential provision and must be obeyed. "We have felt wholly satisfied that the omission to publish the proposed amendment, as required by the constitution, is fatal to its adop tion." This Montana decision, is supported by an Alabama decision (Collier vs Friersoay 24 Ala. 109) which says: : "We entertain-no donfctlhat to . change the constitutiesi. in any . other mode than by convention every requisition which is de- I. . manded by tho instrmment itself must be observed and theomission of any one of them is fetal to the . amendment." . .Discussing the Kansas- case (Pro-' Jiibitory amendsaent caws, 24 Kan.' 700) which held thai aside from the assent of. two thirds of the legislature and a majority of the popular -vote,! .'otherprovisioas are mere machinery and forms, ..the supreme court of California -holds: Paving. Co. va Hilton, 69 Cal,499. "If this is form and machinery it . bfonnanaiBery established ;' by the constitution: ; It is not un- ' substantial ad non-essential, but ' ; a part of the instrument, which ; ' all officers are 'sworn to support : -;- as" much as any other part of. the" : constitution." ..-.'-.....", The court' of appeals of -Texas takes tlw same view. (22Tex. App. 398) Th'e great freight of authority seems to be. the other wity,. hold ing that the courts nor any oiher departntens. :of the government .. are'at liberty to regard any pro- visioavof theosnistiUtioaT as mere- i ly directory, but that each and' every one of its provisions must be treated as imperative and man datory without reference to the rules distinguishing between directory and mandatory statutes. - Judge Cooley, discussing the same point says: "There are some cases, however, . where the doctrine of directory statutes has been applied to con stitutional provisions; but they are so plainly at variance with the weight of authority upon the precise points considered that we ' feel warranted in saying that the judicial decisions as they now stand do not sanction the applica tion." Republicans, is this not sufficient evidence that there is at least a chance for a law suit? There is nothing free or compliment ary about the mileage the editor gets from' the railroad companies. -We feel that we pay the railroads much more than their regular rates for all the rides we get. We enter into the contract be came it is the railroads way of doing bnstBeas. and we can get the advertising in no other way, and on the whole it is desirable. But we have never considered that there was the slightest obligation on our part more thaa the strict ful fillment of the contract. Albion Newa And we want to say that a large number of railroad attorneys and I sheriffs, and clerks of the district court and agents for railroad real estate in Nebraska could use the same excuse with the same honesty that Editor Ladd makes it Cannot the editors of Nebraska see that so long as they defend the "barter" ' railroad contract as applied to themselves that they cannot consistently demand the abolition of it as applied to others? And if the "barter" system is permit ted at all can they not see that the oars are let down for all the present evils of the pass system? So long as the railroads are permitted to ex change mileage for any kind of ser vice whatsoever, is it not clear that they will be ingenious enough to find plausible service for all the men they need for political work in every com munity? Why will reform editors persist in trying to unload all of the corruption connected with the pass evil in the other fellow's back yard? Why not face the problem as it exists and give every person who rides on a ser vice contract including the attorney, the sheriff, the clerk of the court, and the real estate agent, credit for the same honesty possessed by the editor? We believe that a majority of all these classes are honest enough and hmail pnnnvh tn make tlift tima.ll in. J dividual sacrifice necessary and join the raewspaper men in a demand for the complete anninuauon oi tne wnoie system. Under the system as it existstoday, it is wrong to apply the T-. term "pass to holder" to any of the classes en' V merated above without in cluding tne editor. And even the judge and legislator and politician can give excuse for liis action by cit- ing prevailing custom. Let us quit talking with disparagement about the "pass-holders . and "railroad tools" and instead,. make appeal to the manhood of all citizenVto wipe out the system which reaches out with corrupting influence to theXbest citi zenship in every community. And' we repeat thai public opinio never be aroused to the crushing the system,: so long sources of public opinion,- the paper men.jasist upon excusing i selves' from the operation of the laws of corruption which affect equally worthy' members of the con J i PLATTE.

Brian, Boone county's candi date for state treasurer, possesses all the qualifications which the progres sive republicans of Nebraska demand, and they will never be sorry if they nominate, him. First he ' is one of the common people. Second,-he is qualified by education and business and official training for the important duties of state treasurer. Third, he stands on a progressive republican platform, and lives that platform as a citizen and as a republi can. In an address issued to the dele-: gates to the state convention the fid lowing biography of Mr. Brian ap pears. Lawson G. Brian came to this county in 1887, and immediately began farming. For years he had his successes and re veries as a farmer, -but gradually pros pered, improved his land and added1 more acres, until today he is the posses sor of SCO acres finely improved land, and is one of our most prosperous, pro gressive and up-to-date fanners and stockmen. Several years ago Mr. Brian's neigh bors sad friends elected him county: commissioner, and his work was of such' high order in that office, that soon there after he was elected county treasurer, and' two years later was re-elected by a tre mendous majority. It is peculiarly fitting at this time that Mr. Brian shonld become a candidate for an office that is of so much financial importance to the people of the state, for he has many of the characteristics of that type of American citizen best rep resented by our matchless president. He is a magnificent specimen of phy sical manhood, in the prime of his viwor ous life, a strong sturdy character, with well defined opinions and the conrageto live them. Personally he is a plain, honest, con Boientions man, and as such, we present his name for the nomination of state treasurer. Fred Pratt of the Humphrey Democrat is a good fellow, but a poor guesser. Last fall he guessed that the republican square deal fight against the democratic supervisors would fail and gave his support to Peter Bender. Now he guesses there is a "split in the republican party because the Journal dared criticise some bad convention methods in its own party. This guess is pardonable coming as it does from the member of a party whose newspapers are seldom known to criticise the wrong within their own party. But our good friend Pratt may find that the Journal's criticism of republicans gone wrong,' will increase the republican vote next fall the same as did his defense of democrats gone wrong. Our theory is this: Criticise the wrong in your. own party and you unify it by gain ing the active support of all the right thinking members of it. On the other hand, defend the wrong in your party and you drive away the active sup port of its right-thinking members. If we can read the signs aright, instead of seeing-two or three republicans do ing all the work this fall Mr. Pratt will see those republicans whom, the Journal criticised last week ably and enthusiastically assisted by every re publican in -Platte' county.- Platte county republicans will work together this fall, shoulder to shoulder, as they have not done before for years. But they will work only on a "square deal!', republican platform, and only for -candidates who -stand for those principles, which .enabled Theodore Roosevelt to carry Platte county by a Warge majority. See-if -we are not p The best that we can hope for the democrats in the state convention as sembled today is that they will adopt a good republican platform and then takVsteps to blot out the record their officials have made in nation and state everv'time the people have believed theiripromises and turned the govern ment over to them. If they neglect the bitter, their republican oratory will hfve been in vain. i " . l- : ' t iannnannnnnnnAaMaan-iann PBBStHALusi FEETININT .

What would happen to the demo cratic party if Bryan should refuse, to adopt the new Platte county -ratio of 108 to 20? Here is one democratic paper that agrees with the Journal on the pass question: Representative Greig should go evea further than his convention asked him to go on the railroad pass proposition. Mr. Greig should insist upon a law eliminating the railroad pasr system, root and breach. That inemdes the newspaper,, the b4mw-furnished to the clerk of the district court and sheriff o contracts for omcial services. It should eliminate the attorney's pass and asiais ters of the gospel should be. made to pay fare the same as other people. .. The. passes as a mere courtesy to judges, le- gislators and political fixers, of course, is flagrantly wrong,- but' the pass' .re uTpI ceived upon contracts is part of the system and should be abolished by law. This editor has never raised much dost on the pass proposition. ' Although- we have never held a free pass, we nave' al ways used editorial mileage -and trans portation furnished lieu of clerical services as District Court Clerk and no editor nor attorney nor public oScaU, even though they practically pay- for their passes, have any moral right to condemn passes unless they show a williBgness to assist in having the whole system abolished by law, and compel everybody to pay fare, in cash and let the railroads pay cash for the services rendered to them. If any- loop holes are left in anti-pass law for fellows to crawl through via the service contract or editorial mileage route, the law then becomes a farce because there is no suoh a thing as a "free pass" sad railroads will find a way to let their hirelings through the loop-hole. Platte Center 8ignal. Never in the history of Nebraska has the republican party offered so manv strong candidates for state con vention nominations and never has it been more difficult to pick out the winners before the convention. It is a toss up between Rosewater and Brown as high men for Senator with chances about equal between Millard, Evans, Meiklejohn and Currie as dark-horse candidates. And there may-be a convention dead-lock on Benator that will carry the nomination to the legislature. For governor Shel don has the lead in instructed delega tions but Weston is expected to show equal strength in the convention while. Kouse and several others are oy no means out of the race. There seems no disposition ami there should be none to interfere with any of the one term state officers with the possible excep tion of Galusha. That the republi can convention will name progressive Roosevelt republicans for all officers there can be no doubt. And if it does it will name winners. Some anonymous writer this week placed the following question in The Telegram's. query box: "If all tho Platte county delegates to the repnbucaa state convention in order to qaahfy should' be compelled to show they did not ride to Lincoln oa a railroad pens. would Platte be represented. in the con vention?"
