May day, which for many year has been marked by labor disturbances and Industry-hampering differences be tween employers and employed, has come, and gone with, hardly a cloud In J the Industrial sky." Reports from Chicago , and New York, those storm centers of labor troubles, show that amicable relations exist between the workmen and the employers In every Important 11 tie of Industry and that agreements as to wages, hours and other usually disputed points have been made by which the activity of the fomlng season will not be marred by Ftrlkes, lockouts or other manifesta tions of differences between capital and labor.

The MlHsourl legislature passed a resolution of appeal lor his pardon and It was presented to the president by a United States senator. No pro test has been made against the peti tion. Even the sneak who betrayed him has vanished with his miserable $60 reward money and left no sign. The pardon will undoubtedly be granted, as It should be.

Tour first guess was right. Deck is now a pet attorney of certain Wall street combinations. That mysterious "midnight meet ing," which Edgar Howard refers to .and characterizes as "a piece of smart political work," Is declared by the Lin coln Journal to be "an easy thing for any political strategist," all of which will have to be classified under the heading "Important, if true." A Texas law provides that "no pub lic officer shall hold passes unless he be an employe of a railroad." It re mains to be seen how many state offi cials will be able to retain their passes under that provision. PROVDiyo THK STORK.

Employing corpora tions, on the other hand, have recog nized the Justness of many labor de mands and mutual concessions have made easier the adjustment of differ ences by negotiation Instead of by strikes or lockouts.

The publication of a magazine ar ticle in which the writer contended that it Is an erroneous Idea to asBume that the average family should have a larger number of healthy children than the present birth rate shows, has aroused the president to a reiteration of his expressions on the subject of race suclde and has given him oppor tunity to emphasize his views on that subject and renew hU pledge of de voted support of the stork. The pres ident cites the vital statistics to show that in Massachusetts the average fam- ployers and employed throughout the ny of native descent has so few chll- oountry and both are strengthened to meet future emergencies In the spirit of mutual Interest. Continued peace ful relations between these too often conflicting Interests will furnish a guar antee of uninterrupted wage-earning, a steady flow of dividends and profits. healthy commercial and industrial con ditions and extension of the era of I dren that the birth rate has fallen be low the death rate. It needs no math ematical expert to prove that this means race suicide and the final elimi nation of the native of Massachusetts. The president makes it plain that this would not do.

BILLBOARDS. It is really pathetlc-to Bee with' what tender solicitude our mayor and city council take up the question ot bill boards and street signs, that disfigure our thoroughfares and spread hide ousneBs over the natural beauty of the city. One would suppose that an In alienable right to plaster fences and buildings with flaring signs at so much a square foot were part of the Declara tion of Independence and engrafted in our state constitution. That the au thorltles are not bo tolerant of this evil in other cities may be gathered from the following survey of the war on the billboard, taken from the cur rent number of Collier's: Pain to tha eye ot mankind seems at last about to produce a lonK-delayed rebellion, After a bitter flsht a tax ot 1 cent per aquara foot per year has been placed upon billboards In Los Angeles, returning- some I5l6b0 a rear to that city, which has twenty-five miles of billboards. New Tork City, through Its anolstant corporation coun sel. Is waging a war on Illegal billboards. Flva sulta have already been entered acalnst tha O. J. Ouda company. Tha Chamber ot Commerce of tha city of Pitta, burg la undertaking the reatrtctlon of bill boards in that city, and similar action ia being taken in Cincinnati. Boston is tn the throea of a proteat against a beer sign on tha Hotel Pelbam. fronting tha Boston Common, for which the erecting concern pays the owner , of the premises 13,000 per year, notwithstanding which the said owner has succeeded in having the assess ment on his building for tax purposes re duced tl.900 within, the year. The situation In Boston is made rather amuatng by the fact that Donnelley, the boas blllboarder. haa been disciplined by the National Bill posters' association for erecting this sign against the dealrea of tha National associa tion. Tha legislatures of the atatee or Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New Tork and Maasachusetts have each billboard re etrlcthieT and taxing acta before them now, with the billboard men fighting any taxa tion, regulation or supervision. Omaha ought to get in with the van guard In this movement instead of lag ging behind the) rear. Every time a billboard or street sign ordinance is proposed here, however, the pressure of Interested parties quickly gets In Its work. The people may, however, still live In hopes. . PARDOS fob a jean vauean. President Roosevelt has recom mended a pardon, or at least a com mutation of sentence, for William January, alias Charles Anderson of Missouri, whose trials and experiences with the law. and Its vengeance show him to be ad up-to-date twentieth cen ture Jean Valjean. When about 21 years of age January robbed a post office at Stillwater, Okl. Evidence showed at the time that he was in a desperate condition, without work and almost starving. He was sentenced to twelve years In a federal prison and was a model prisoner for five years. Then came a chance of escape and he embraced It. ' Assuming the name of Charles Anderson, January went to Kansas City, found work, prospered, married, built himself a home and was becoming well-to-do when an old cell mate discovered his identity and be trayed him to the authorities for the 1(0 reward that had been offered at the time of his escape. When January was returned to the federal vrleou at Fort Leavenworth, or a wealthy oligarchy. All these things would be bad for us, but the country would still exist. But it could not continue to exist If it paid heed to the expressed or Im plied teachings of suob articles as this. Clearly the stork s duty is to get busy with Its defense. It may be able to do this by, citing statistics from other states and . sections, showing overcrowded kindergartens, record breaking attendance at Sunday school picnics, the enlargement of the circus seats for "half-price" tickets, the in creasing and insistent demands for more parks and playgrounds for the little folks and multifold other evl aences ana signs mat tnere is no "tendency to the elimination rather than the survival of the fittest" such as the president fears. We are confi dent of the stork's ability to make a showing along these lines that will al lay the presidents fears, but, of course, it is still up to the bird to ex plain why it has discriminated against Massachusetts. Perhaps it should not be blamed for doing most of its work In the more favored fields, but unless it can show that its Massachusetts basket has been lost or laid up for re pairs the stork will be compelled to rest under a charge of shirking its duty so far as part of Its route Is con cerned.

ACCEPTING THK TWO-CEJIT PARE, Eastern Lines Refuse to Follow Weat- ra Ezansples. Philadelphia Press. Railroads In western states, from Michi gan across to Nebraska, seven in all, have accepted without resistance centa a mile as the new passenger rate. These roads are not going Into the courts. They are not asserting charter or other rights, as the case may be. They stand ready to obey the law and let the public find out by experience If the law la wrong. If these states In the west can afford to accept a 2-cent passenger act, why should any states in the east resist? Traffic la larger here, expensea are lower, and the change from the old rate to tha new one Is lesa. Why should not eastern lines, Including those in this state, do aa western lines have, accept the law and obey it? Who has more to lose, by creating the impression that a law is made to be resisted and is to be obeyed only upon compulsion than the great i all road corporations? REAL HOME RILE!. New York's Governor Strongly t'p holda the Policy. Chicago Record-Herald. The New Tork executive Is proving him self to be one of the most enlightened and courageous friends ot real home rule that state has ever had. He has surprised and gratified the thoughtful cltlxens by a aeries of little vetoes that are remarkable In their way. He has killed bills raising salaries of stenographers and assistant secretaries of the Brooklyn under-sheriff, increasing the pay of cooks and laundresses In local of fices, regulating the management of a county Jail and so on. "It Is absurd," he said tn one of his brief veto messages, "that the legislature should be called upon to deal with mat ters of this sort." The things covered by these petty local measures should be left entirely to the local authorities. To the argument that existing charters and the existing relations between the legislature and local administration unfortunately make it not only possible but actually nec esssary In many coses to bother the legis lature with questions of small offlcea, In creaaea of pay, repair and management of county buildings and ao on, Governor Hushes replies that the proper thing to do Is to secure an amendment of the un duly restricted municipal charters or pass a general act extending home rule to cover all such caeca. The position Is manifestly sound and wholly consistent, of course, with the de mand for Increased power in the execu tive where the. increase Is necessary to efficient control and successful administra tion.

Frank Btelnhart, who recently resigned ROIND ABOUT NEW YORK. the Ripples on the Current of Life I Metropolis. After having collected at least $30,000, and perhaps (50,000, from frugal Hungarians In New York City, Cleveland and Chicago on the strength of glowing advertisements claiming valuable land grants, railroad con cessions and subsidies from the Hungarian government, the first Hungarian Oil and Mining company, headquarters in New York, has been repudiated by the authori ties at Budapest. Those who bought stock in the company are looking for their money, with little prospect of seelryg the color of It. The concern is pronounced a bald swindle. The company's prospectus quoted some of the great profits made by the Standard OH company as examplea of what might be ex pected. Finally it offered to aell shares at $2.50, the par value of which was $5. The hard-working people on the East Side in vested their savings, none being allowed to purchase less than Ave shares at $12.50. In queer ways the health fad betrays Itself among New York's fashionable women, and many of them have found an easier way of dodging a few millions of microbes than by submitting themselves to all the pains and demands of active exercise. It has become the vogue to discard the use of paper money. In spite of Its greater weight, reports the New York Press, only gold Is permitted to find Its way Into the dainty portemonnales with which the society woman arms her self for her trips abroad. Germs are no respecters of persons or price, and bills of high denomination are Just as likely to suffer from the microbe-carrying propen sities of paper as are their humbler $1 and $1 brethren. The uptown branches of banks have been experiencing a persistent run on gold re cently from women. But this caution dees not cease even here. Gold itself may be tainted, and .before these prudent women will handle the coins that come from the banks their maids are called upon to put them through a strict process of sterlllxa tlon. Rigid economists are disposed to com plain that such vigorous handling will de crease the lntrlnaic value of the oolns through what is known as "sweating," but aa long as the fetiches of "health and beauty" are believed to demand the aacri flce there Is little likelihood of the women abandoning the practice. The wonders of Coney Island have been retouched, and new wonders even have been added. The big feature of the revised Luna Park is to be "Night and Morning; or, A Journey Through Heaven and Hell." It Is said to have cost $50,000 and to be full of surprises. "The Great Shipwreck" will show a fishing village In winter, with an angry sea rolling up to the shore. There will be a little sketch leading up to the ac tion of the spectacle. Then darkness ap proaches and a fearful - storm cornea up with the night. A rocket Is fired at sea, in dicating that there is a ship in distress. Then the entire scene Is changed in the space of a minute and a half. A lifeboat puts out from shore and makes for the ship In distress. This ship Is not a scenlo Illusion at all. It is a full-sized vessel, and la making straight for the rocks. It hits the rocks and begins to break up. The rescue Is finally effected by the use of tho buoy. Then the ship goes to pieces and vanishes. In all, there will be twenty-four leading attractions In Luna Park, while Dreamland and other amusement plnces will have many neW features. Grney Island of a few years ago seems almost a myth.

This savors of cruel and unusual punishment for the aforesaid railroad tax agents, who having nothing to show for their work on the late legislature, must be primed to extraordinary exertion before the state assessment board to make them selves solid with their employers. The tax bureau, which used to be the most important division of railroad man agement In Nebraska, is in grave dan ger of being overshadowed by lesser lights like the general manager, the head of the law department of the su perintendent of motive power.

Greatly to her surprise the young woman's foot shot out Into the aisle. She caught at the man's coattail, for he could not be spared. At length, scarlet with confusion, they managed to get free. With every robbery reported In New York hotels furniture manufacturers come to the front with a boast that whatever else the robber may have hidden himself it certainly wasn't under the bed, because beds nowadays are buflt too low for even the thinneat of villains to hide under. "We even advertise to that effect,"- said one manufacturer. "For many years losses of money and Jewelry were attributed Indl rctly, at least, to. the bed, which was built high enough to afford protection to the thief. Finally, In order to save the good name of that necessary piece of furniture, we decided tp build It so low that not even an infant could crawl under It, thereby compelling the enterprising burglar to seek a hiding place elsewhere."

Judging by President Roosevelt's charac ter and all he has ever said and done since he has been president, the unanimous re quest of the people that he be a candidate for a third term will not alter his purpose to retire, partly because he has other reasons than the third-term tradition. The third-term movement, however, Is probably grateful to him because it will put It In hlB power to name his successor. If he will not serve It would be a strange admirer who would not favor a man whom he has se lected to continue his policies. t . Hhy: FLASHES OF FIN. hi" "Whv ttlitn't ntii A n th tl Wind let me in?"
