Auotber way to relieve. th over crowded condition of the county jail, to which th grand Jury report takes exception, would be to establish a city workhouse or even a rock pile at which petty offenders might be located during the brief terms for which they accept compulsory hospitality of the city or county. There seems to have been a alight misapprehension in local democratic circles. Mayor Oahlman Insists that he mad the fight la the last municipal campaign fjor principle and not for office, notwithstanding the fact that his supporters were led ti believe that as soon as the votes' were counted the offices would come first and the princi ples be secondary. -It is pretty hard to make a hungry 'democrat see where principle leaves off aod office begin.. rksults or rvBLirnr The efficacy of more publicity at a mean of remedying, popular griev ance Is once more signally Illustrated by the Chicago packing house expos ure. Aside from the assurance of the early enactment of a satisfactory fed eral meat Inspection law, and more stringent enforcement of existing state and municipal laws, publicity has al ready brought about many, If not all, the desired Improvements In Ch con ditions and methods of meat prepara tion In the big packing houses. Al though new national and local legis lation may not be enacted or go Into effect for months, the publication of the reports of official Investigations haa already accomplished Important reforms which would remain as sub stantial gains even If not a line were added to national or state statute books as a result of the agitation. Wisely realizing the necessities of the occasion, those In control of the great meat Industries at Chicago have bestirred themselves without delay to remove the offensive conditions and methods agalnat which the president's pedal Investigators had lodged com plaint. The moat objectionable . fea tures have been completely remedied, the different establishments have been thoroughly cleaned up and arrange ments made for more perfect sanita tion everywhere. The packers not only at Chicago, but also at other points, have of their own volition, according to best reports, gone further in many directions than they would be required to go under the strictest laws and reg ulations that have been proposed. In all thia they are giving evidence of determination to meet the most ex acting demands of meat consumers for cleanly and healthful handling of the meat supply. Although so vast an Improvement has been brought about. It will of course be followed up with Inspection legislation that will make Its regula tions compulsory upon big and little meat packers alike and 'assure the public that there will be no backslid ing under stress of competition In the future. But the material ' betterment secured In advance of legislation must be put; down as a notable admonition of the Inherent remedial possibilities of publicity by Itself. PRKSWKKT8 TRA VKLISO EXPK.VSCS. It is unfortunate that the item in the aundry civil appropriation bill de voting $25,000 for the traveling and like expenses of the president should haye been open to a point of order, and that the opposition ' leader In the house should have felt himself moved to raise the point. Public opinion is practically unanimous that some such provision should be made, this Item In the pending bill having been received with emphatic approval by . people of all political parties. The point of or der, ot course, does not go to the sub stance of the matter, nor would the Item have Invalidated the measure. Congressman WllUa'ma therefore might well have omitted the purely tech nical objection, . . . .v It is no longer a question as to the policy of defraying traveling expenses of the occupant of-the White House, but a. question of only a little time when an appropriation to cover them wl.ll be made. Public sentiment will not now approve of a situation in which the progress ot the president through the country on public business must be made at his private" expense or by grace of the transportation com panies. On the other hand, such means of contact between him and the people, with all the educational In fluence and other mutual benefits in volved, is more than ever appropriate and even necessary now that the move ment for more closely harmonising government and peopto-ig going for ward so rapidly. Though not a part of the written program,' custom" from the foundation of our government has been for the. chief executive to show himself among, the people, and he In expected to do so aa much as to com munlcate officla.Iy with congress. Nor is it a light task since the country haa grown bo great. The means for performing so impor tant a public duty obvioualy should be supplied at the public charge. It will devolve upon congress to make the appropriation at the earliest possible day in a manner that cannot' be de feated by mere techlncal objection. OSITliVO IXTERESTtXa. The little family quarrel In the dem ocratic household In the city hall Is getting Interesting.- The head of the family persists In asserting his rights and declaring his Intention to rule the ranch If' he has to call Out the whole cowboy brigade to do It. He says he la responsible for the way the place Is run. having been Installed In the raayor'a office by vote of tbe people, while the democratic council got In by mere accident after he had beaten down tbe door. To the Impeachment that he baa uu dertaken to distribute the pie without first consulting the councllmanic mem bers of the family, the mayor replies with the counter charge that the coun cil was organized by the election of a president and the appointment of com mittees without consulting him, not withstanding the tact that the presi dent of the council aa acting' mayor In hla absence might upset the entire pol icy of his administration and undo all the good work he may have accom plished. The mayor reads the platform prom ises of good government to mean the appointment of subordinatea with an Idea to fitness for the office rather than mere party allegiance, but the democratic coun'cllmen refuse to admit that any republican can possibly be better qualified to do anything than are the democratic camp followers who are, making Iff miserable for them. Campaign platforms, anyway, were not in their opinion meant to hold good after election as against democratic office seekers, and good city government Is Impossible so long as the city hall Is besieged by political retainers dogging their footsteps from pillar to post. In the classic language of a famous operatic composer, "Here's a pretty howd y do." , IMMVXtTT DtriXED. Ibe Knox Immunity bill which has passed the senate Is an outgrowth of the immunity decisions of the federal court. The law regarding the privilege of w-ltneanea In'liiHIcial nrnceadlnas la now fairly well settled, but the deel- " I ston or Judge Humphrey in tne paca Ing house cases has thrown Into con fusion the whole subject outside of witnesses testifying under oath and thus interferes both with the course of justice and with the operations of the I executive departments. tf ... tti.fn.rann who merely furnish. Information under the act creating the Department of Commerce or other executive agencies should be exempted from the conse quences In any way involved In viola tions of criminal law. The measure prepared by Senator Knox provides that "lmmiinltv ahall Mtend onlv to a natural person who. In obedience to subpoena, elves testimony under oath, or produces evidence, document ary or otherwise, under oath." 8uch a statutory declaration, if ac- companled by another provision now In an advanced legislative stage, con- ferring upon the government the same . . . . ,V. . . . . . . . right of appeal that the defendant has In criminal cases, would Immensely strengthen the hands of the admlnis- tration for enforcing the lawa upon . m j great corporations, their officers and agents, removing difficulties Which the Department of Justice has lately found exceedingly embarrassing and disas trous. The Nebraska supreme court has done the unusual thing in denying the right of an appeal In the action of the county board in fixing the tax levy In volved In a case brought up from Lan caster county. The court declares that to permit such an appeal would in effect be the same as transferring the ultimate tax-levying power from the county board In which It Is lodged by law to the court which would be regu- larly called upon to review it. As a rule the courts are dlsnoRpd to main- .- i tain their jurisdiction in all disputed territory. Our local weekly contemporary. The Examiner, admits the gentle Insinua tion that It gets Its inspiration direct from corporation headquarters and re peats the declaration that 1,the rail roads and corporate interests gener ally are opposed to state convention nomination of a United States senator at this time." because "they well know that it. Is easier to corral a leg islature than to round up and lariat a state (convention." But the railroads and .corporate Interests do not always have things just the way they want them.. ... I., . .

The people of New Orleans are pre paring to renew their campaign against the yellow fever carrying mosquito. Medical men say that with any kind of reasonable precautiona the yellow fever outbreak, which was bo diaas- trous a year ago. can be prevented. Under such circumstances, If these pre- ..tu, .P. nnt t.b.n th. r..nnn.ikt. authorltlea would stand In the light of parties to a crime. Coburn of Kansas has decided . he Will not give UP the position he now holds to accent a temoorary aonoint- ment to fill th seat made vacant hv the resignation of Senator Burton un til tbe le.ialature meets. Mr. Coburn haa. apparently, canvassed the political situation and figured it out to hla own satlsfactlon that re-election by the leg islature would have to be counted as one of the hazardous uncertainties. The Item making allowance for pres idential traveling expenses seems to have fallen by the wayside in the house. Had It only included provision for traveling expenaes for a few con gressional junketa in which the mem bers could participate officially It would, doubtless, hare received , more considerate attention..

If Iowa democrats will take aa great an Interest In helping the republican ticket to success, on election day as they are said to take in the nomination of republican candidatea the election will be practically unanimoua.

Nelll and Jantea Mronson Rey nolds, Joint suthors of the report on pack ing house oondltlons In Chicago, hav leaped Into th limelight so suddenly that few people know whenc they sprung. A few facts about them will b of Interest. Mr. Nelll Is th United States commis sioner of Isbor. holding the position for msny yesrs filled by Colonel Csrroll D. Wright, at whosa Inatsnce In consldersble part Dr. Nelll was selected. He Is 41 yesrs old. wss educated at aeveral Institutions, Including Johns Hopkins, from which he received the degree of doctor of philosophy. He served ss professor of political science st the Csthollc university In Waahlngton for eight years, and while thus engeged was employed as assistsnt recorder of the Anthracite Strike commission, 'knd after ward as recorder of the arbitrstlon bosrd which It created. He hss been prominent In the charitable and philanthropic woik of th national capital, and long identified with th Assoclsted Charities. He Is an Independent republican, although hi sp polntment wss In no sense political. He is regarded by those who know him as a strong and clear-headed Investigator. James Bronson Reynolds, his sssociate, la a New Terker. 4S year eld. Is a gradu al of Tale and th Tsl Divinity school, but is chiefly"" known In connection with his work on the committee of seventy In the mayoralty campaign ot and by his chslrmanshlp of th executive committee of the Cltisens- union In 117. when an un successful attempt wss mad to elect Beth Low. whose secretary he eventually ne csme on Mayor Low s success In 1901. Mr. Reynolds Is a university settlement worker and an expert In sociological lines. Secretary Wilson disagrees with those who say that the eleventh commandment Is to mind your own business. The other day th secretary wss out at dinner with a number of friends. During th conver sation he let slip something which proved to be mighty embarrassing to the secretary. The next day he had occasion to reprimand a subordinate who hsd also let go of some thing thnt wss to be considered sjs con fidential. "Th subordinate wondered whst the elev enth commendment wss. He hsdn't even heard the version thst It wss about mind ing your own business. Bo th secretary wrote It out for him: "Keep your mouth shut:" .

Rubber heels at the expense of th lend- lords or fist dwellers Is the latest Innova tion of renting agents In Washington. There Is a clause In the more recent leases of Bpartmente that every memoer oi ... family must wear rubber heels on snoes while In the spartment. Tha innovation Is for the purpose of securing some manner of quiet In the crowded apartment bouses. In apartment houses where go-carts are per mitted it Is specified that the wheels- must be equipped with rubber tires. On moving In tenants are sent to a nearby shoemsker, who has a contract with the landlord to equip their shoes with th noise less heels, and. consequently, there Is never any complstnt of "th raeket overhesd." Agents say few-tenants make any objection to th rubber heel clause. Bandmaster Bousa appeared before the Joint committee on. patents of th senat the other day and talked atrongly for re strlctlons on piratical talking machine men who appropriate his compositions without paying for them. "Every one of these concerns," said Mr. Sousa. referring to the manufacture of talking machines, "has from twenty to one hundred of my compositions In Its catalogues, and I have yet to receive th first cent for their reproduction, I want this money. . . "I was born In this city. I am M years old. When I was a boy her the young people sat on their steps and porches In the evening and sang the old songs and the new ones. If you walk down a Wash ington street In the evening you will not bear these young voices. Tu will hear these Infernal machines these talking ma chines. "Last summer I wss In one of tha fa mous summer resorts, wher were congre gated the swellest yschts of the country. I went among them, and In place of the usual songs of the water In the evening what did I hear? 'F.l Capltan' on the talk ing machine.

They will pay on of my beat cornet playera $4 a tune for them. That shows the value of th human vole. And yet the composer of th song or of the piece does not get a cent for his compost-. tlon. Senator Heed Bmoot ventured th sug gestion thst from his obaervetlon the peo ple were not living aa close to naturs as they used to do and were forgetting to sing. "Oh. that s no u," retorted Mr. Bousa. "It's the talking machine." A provision In the new bill advocated by Mr. Bousa will meet the complaint he makes. It requires the consent of tb oomposer before a record msy be msde for mechanical production. Just after the house had convened the other day a number of members wer striv ing to catch tha speaker's eye when Mr. Cannon, after glancing at a slip of .paper on hla deak, aald: "Th' gentleman from New York. Mr. Waldo." The congressman wss astonished, for he had not sought recognition. The spesker banged his gavel and said: "Did not th gentleman from New Tork ssk for recognition on bill num ber so and so" Then Mr. Waldo remem bered that he had, and aald ao, but un fortunately he had not a copy of th meas ur with him. Th spesker glowered at him. fished out a copy of the proposed legislation snd handed It over Xo the clerk, saying: "The gentleman from New Tork moves the present consideration of th following bill." Then It was read and after som discussion was passed, thus giving on mora Illustration of lawmaking up to data. Wide Reai-b of Greed. Phllsdelphia Record.

It Is reported from Omaha that a move ment Is under way th effort being to work It quietly to make no nomlnstlon for United Stat senator In th republican state convention. However, this Is not surprising to those who have been watching the actlona aud plnns of th leaders and the ease with which some ot th repub licans sr falling Into line. It Is so much easier for th railroad Interests to rontrol the sens t oris I election In the leglslstur than when republicarfs are Insistent enough on their rights to Instruct their delegstes. It Is only necessary to observe th results In counties where railroad Inter ests hav favorite sons heading th delega tions. Weald n't Tha Be let Wllber Republican (rep.).

Saarce Subject to Beapteloa, North Piatt Tribune (rep ). Tha venerable Mr., Crounse of Omaha has consented to become a candidate for United Statea senator. Mr. Crounse has not altogether passed the age of useful ness, but a younger and more active man should represent Nebraska In the senate. As Mr. Crounse's senatorial aspirations were hatched . by th Fontanelle club of Omaha his candidacy Is largely a dig at Edward Rosewater. BaffCastloa Nat Well Received. - . Fremont Trlbun (rep.).' Senator Millard now 'suggests th ad visability of th state convention making no nomination for senator. This was his attitude two years ago, but th conven tion decided to tha contrary by a vote of 80 per cent of Its delegates. Last winter, however, th senator, cam out tn a publlo announcement Id favor of the convention plan. Why this flip-flop attitude? It Is doubtless a scheme of th railroads, aa there are other evidences beside the ex pression of Senator Millard to Indicate their vlsh to throw the matter into tha legislature, where they always have a better chance to win.
