The Trouble! of Spain. The troubles of Spain aro multiply ing so rapidly that If any person or Idea were presented around which the discontented could rally tho present dynasty would probably be 4wept away. The Spanish foreoa tn Morocco are meeting with atubborn resistance and the reporta read between the llnea of censored dlspatchea Indicate a d le ast roii4 revorae. At home open re volt by unorganised mobs Is testing tho resources of the government. Tho Incident a leading up to tho prea ent troubles are many and, while there la a disposition to credit the outhrenka at home to natural Spanish turbu lence, there la a deeper cause. It la doubtful If the people of the I'nlted States or Great RrUaln, with all their governmental atablllty, would peace ably submit to conditions existing In Spain. The drafting of reservUta to aerve In Morocco or even for garrleon duty at home takes the poor alon Into the army. The rich buy them selves out, while the poor conscript must leave hla family with no support, for the pay of the Spanish soldier Is a pittance. Kn forced military service Is unpopular everywhere and under such conditions becomes Intolerable. Another cause of discontent la the deep-eeated prejudice against a foreign war. For centurtea Spanlarda have sent their sona and husbands to for eign lauds to be slaughtered without the poor recompense of national glory. The nation and Its people have been Impoverished by these ware and the present war I doubly unpopular from being brought on to protect a rich mln- lug corporation operating near Melllla, whose encroaebmenta were reaented by tho Moors. Spain lu normal times Is rent by faction. There are the Carllsta, the republican and. In Harcelona panic ularly, a Urge turbulent element which lovee trouble for trouble'a sake. If tho government successfully emerge from the trying situation It will be solely because the opposition lacks a strong leader or a common purpose, for tho king la not a strong personality and hla advlsora have not shown auy real capacity.

Certainly no new departure la thn educational world In recent yeara will be more cloaely obnerved than thla. riatform Omiiiioni. C'eHaln fault-finding critics, located for the rnoaf part at Lincoln, profesa to be more or leaa exercised because of the omission from the republican plat form of referencea or endoraementa of a lot of thlnga which they Include In the republican creed. This criticism overlook the fact that. tbe atnte cam- pnlKn In Nebraska th's year Ih confine! to tho election of three supreme Judgox and three membera of the university board of rcgenta. and that Jio onn la to be electod who will have nny voice In matters of state legislation or admln Intratlon. Hy reaffirming the national and state plat (onus of 1008 the convention made it entirely unneceaaary to repent at length declaration of fealty to nil of the policies therein je;t forth. The convention waa expecWd to, and did, record Itself unequivocally on tho tnrlff revision clause whoso meaning had been disputed, end It properly called attention .mow to the unprece dented record of reform legislation en acted wIiOho benefit the people are en joying ns boons from the Inst repub lican legislature as contrasted with tho fiasco of the lato democratic legisla ture. The omission of a plnnk on the direct primary law does not change the pnrty'a attitude on thnt subject. On the contrnry, by reaffirming the plat form of IPOS It stands steadfast by the direct primary with promisea of strengthening amendments. Hut the direct primary law which the repub- lleana enacted la not tho direct pri mary law now on tho statute booka na mutilated by the deuiocrnta, nor are any number of republicans willing to assume responsibility for the wide- open primary saddled on the people by the late democratic legislature. Irre spective of thnt question, however, the planting of the primary again on firm ground by repeal of the wido-opon fea ture cannot bo au latme of this cam paign, but will, lu all probability, be an Issue of the next campaign when a governor anil lentnhitiire will be chosen with full power and authority. What Is here snld with reference to the omission of a special plank on the primary applies equally to the other platform omtxglons, and fully Justifies the restriction of tho platform declara tions to the two aubjecta of the Judi ciary and university administration. In this campaign the democrats are trying to ride their candidates Into office on a false pretense of non par tisanship, but they havo been already unmasked by the republicans who have exposed the democratic Insincerity by parading tho damning democratic rec ord of hide-hound partisanship and ravenoua spoils grabbing. Labor Wanted in the West. The east does not appear to have grasped the real domain! for labor In the west. Skilled labor lu the east Is now fairly well employed, but there Is wtlll a surplus of common labor In that section which the wost wants as badly aa the men need work. The labor has not been transferred because an Idea prevails tnat it is wanted for only a brief time In the harvest Holds, after which the meii would be left stranded. In the first place. If the labor had responded when the demand arose there would have been at least four months' work In the harvest field, commencing In the south and moving north. There la stl'l a considerable demand, which will continue with threshing aud corn gathering iuto the winter. Hut the harvest la not all of the de mand for labor lu th west. Particu larly In the far west railroad and Irri gation work is haltlug for lack of the klud of labor w hich Is Idle in the east The cast docs not appear to be able to realtte the great activity which ex ist In th west today and by Ita short atghted policy is keeping on Its own hand Idle laborer lu are a burden. If they could be net to work where they are wanted It would speodily solve one great difficulty In th Indue- trlal situation. Th anti-aaloouist resolved that tbey would not ask to have the liquor question Injected a an Issue Into the campaign tn Nebraska thla year and both the republican and democrat took them at their word, but now some of them teem to be disappointed be cause their wishes were respected Seme people are hard to please Some of our democratic friends an.' near-democratic fricn.!, seem to br distressed for fear the republican platform declaration on the isrlfl might not be understood to mean re vision downward President Taf r.e.ird the message fron Nebr4k an understood 1: mcM inc Xhsourl hs a row Ian which make carrying a rc.ier or any kin 1 it frcarms lct. ch'irv!-. ivr.cr pub '.lc faltering a tclov.v Tl'.c l.tw, if cn- j f. would rnvect th, orcest. j hut jhe man w',. run a r-r.or-.,r j ,f;.r uu.'.r.Si w .v:M still r. ej a b r..b proof. j Tre potiv.o.) i 'H-h,v at CVc; k. criT.Tcn lent cf 1'.- fiVtlV iKYi'. r.c1 i!hin- i2r ,i. ;v Ov.. rnlen.'er! w.i rs ' K .-3 pr.',! ir.g wire for tc . .

A. In Other Lands IU X.I4- WTha la Traos plrlag aVaaawg the Wear aa ra STaMea ef th Xarth. Th4 belief entertained outside of Eng land that tha spasms of fear of Oerman Invasion recently noted wer confined to naval and military booster, to Industries directly concerned and sensational news papers, la confirmed by Oscar T. Srhwerlner of th staff of th rterlln Lokal-Antelger, who was commissioned to travel over th country and ascertain at first hand Pritlsh feeling toward Oermany. In a series of letters to his paper, re published by th Iondon Mali, Mr. Schwerlner declares there are few trace of anti-German feeling In the country at large. Her and 'there, he says, a theatt r or variety show baa seen fit to rattje thn Jingo drum, but so far as he could Judge sueh demonstrations of "patriotism" even In southern England failed to elicit any genuine enthusiasm, while In the north they provoked actual Jeering. In the Individual, no matter what might be hla station In life, he never encountered the slightest 111 feeling toward Oermany. In all his wanderings through Kngland not a single exception was met with. On the other hand, the Oerman visitor fell In with a multitude of people who were outspoken in their admiration for his country. Nevertheless, the decision of the government to add four to this years quota of rreadnaughta. making a total of eight, .indicates a wholesome fear of Oer man naval activity In quarters controlling the purs strings, and a determination to make the naval pace warm one fur tha kaiser. aae The personality of M. Brland. the new premier of France, Is Interesting. He Is one of the first lo fill this high office in France who has no recollection of mon archical conditions in that country. He was a mcr child when the Franco-Prussian war took place, and his outlook Is not backward, but wholly forward. As a very yoling man he was an enthusiast and almost a visionary In his political Ideas, but time and experience have tempered and steadied his views. When the bill which he rhnmploned four years ago was In the throes of flerc debate an observer described him hs "a parliamentary speaker of the first class. Mild.' courteous, liberal In his seeming, clear-voiced and without rhetoric, making himself heard anally In spit of his frail look, and, best of atl, able to reason suddenly and lucidly upon his legs w hen surprised by no matter what puzzling questions. It Is he alone who has made a continuation of the dis cussion possible." Thus, whether hlR policies should prove wise or otherwise, they are not likely to fall for lack of strong and clear presentation aud defense. aa Itugh Sutherlnnd of "the Philadelphia North American, who. as correspondent, participated in the land agitation In Ireland seven years ago. Is back in Ireland In vestigating the effect of the letclslatUn creating a peasant proprietary. In a series of letters to the North American he hows that the successive land acu. culminating in the Wyndham act of 1903. advanced from the British treasury toOO.000.000 to enable IrUh tenants to become owners of the land. In the four and a half years ending March 31, IMS. purchase agreements on B.ilv'l es tates bad been made by 141, STB tenants, and the purchase money agreements amount to tU&j.Oou.OOO. At the present time It Is esti mated I10.00Q tenants have been made own ers of their farms or are In process of acquiring them on th installment plan. A noteworthy fact. denionntratlnK the eagerness of the tenantry for ownership, is the official statement that out of 70.000 purchases effected during the . first two yesrs of the act only two failed their pay ments. Royal families are expensive luxuries wherever they are rooted. The Blue hook of Oreat Britain for the year ending March .tl. 1909. gives a specimen of the royal reach Into the national treasury. Besides the personal Incomes of the kins and queen annuities are paid to the royal family ns follows: Prince of Wales . $100mo Princess of Wales W.000 Princess Christian Princess Ixmlse 004 Duke of Connausht 12? tiO Iuchesa of Edinbureh SO.tW Duchess of Albany 30.W Princess Mary of Bauenherg SO.O.W Trustees for his niaiefty daughters 90.(00 Their majesties' privy purse w as IM0 iMO.

Justice Brewer objection to the Income tax was put In those words In his speech In Milwaukee: "Supposing congress sees fit to levy taxes on all the income re ceived from substantial, direct personal property and real estate, what will the states do lu rase they need lare sum of money for their own revenue?" There might be some force in the objection that the Income tax amendment would practic ally take away from th state a source of revenue properly theirs and necessary to them, If th states had found It necessary to tax incomes, but they have not. and the nation once haa. When Justice Brewer raises the objection that th proposed amendment to the constitution would de stroy the vitality of the states by taking away from them an Important sourc of revenue he Is conjuring up a remote spec ter. Crises that may face the national gov ernment ar much mor severe and exigent than any that the states are likely to meet. The learned Justice s supposition would be more In accordance with the real ities If It were changed so oa to be: "Sup pose the country confronted by another emergency comparable to the civil war; what would it do without th power to tax incomes T" Objections to the Income tax, except In emergencies ar sufficiently real without Invoking imaginary one. But if there Is to be a reort to that form of taxation, it had better be by the nation than by the states. Taxation of Income by the states would probably operate with great Inequality and tend to b a good deal of farce. Shallow Forealahl. Philadelphia Record.
