The shippers affected by the some what famous Missouri river rate case may now count that they . have achieved a real victory, since the su preme court has overruled Judge OroBStrup's decision, which prevented the Interstste Commerce commission from enforcing the order of Novem ber 15, 1908 The fact tbat the nil gallon hag run the gamut , of the courts for two years and finally re sulted in favor of the shippers before the court of last resort, makes tbe victory the more distinct. This dis tinction Ss a little more than senti mental, too, when it is taken into consideration with the preaent de mands of railroads' for increases'' in rates.' The moral effect may not be to set up any precedents or standards by which to measure other rates, but when it is remembered with what persistence the roads combatted these rates from first to last, it does have a bearing on present disputes. It is well thet this case was fought to the utmost length, for this leaves no question of its stability. A point of much interest in this controversy is that the rates now made operative by the decision will remain in effect until the railroads can prove their right to advance them and In the circumstances of the new law tbe burden of proof rests entirely upon tbe railroads. . In the event of their Intention to raise their rates the roads wonld have to give a thirty days' notice aid then the shippers would avail themselves of the provis ion' of law which enables the commis sion to suspend advances by filing a petition ..for that V purpose. 'There seems to be little likelihood now of an early reversal cf, conditions. In this cane the shippers may expect really to derive ' some benefit in 'freight charges from their long-awaited vic tory. Indiani and Taxation. The law to tax restricted Indian land, which came from Senator Erown's bill in the last congress, has already aerved to show that Indiana aa a. whole are not inimical to taxation and that tbey have a clearer under standing of what it means to them than might have been supposed. We find from the Indians themselves that they welcome taxation, believing that It will not impose greater burdens upon tbem, but rather tbat it will pro duce greater advantages. It is quite noteworthy to -sstt that a delegation of Omaha Indians recently in Wash ington, to tbe man, expressed gratifi cation that the government was going to include them in Its list of taxpay ers. Tbey had nut so much to say of the ethical side of the question ss of the material. Tbey may have appre ciated fully 'how responsibility tends to make them self-supporting and self-respecting and all that, but what struck them aa of moat consequence wss that when they paid taxes, in ad dition to the white people, the public, funds would be enlarged and they could have better ( achools and better roads and better advantagea of vari ous kinds. This looks as if Uncle Sam has really acconiplleaed aomethlng with his wards. It Is really more than might have been expected b y those not familiar with the Indian situation in this state and section. It is natural for the white man to wince when the matter of taxes Is mentioned. The Indian could not have been blamed had he done It. Therefore, it must be extremely gratifying to the govern ment in Ita patient effort to educate and elevate the Indian to fiad how wen it has succeeded. U has suc ceeded because it started out on tbe right theory that . of securing men to manage the Indian departments who knew the Indian, hia character, needa and tendencies and then of proceed ing directly on the ground tbat the Ul au4 aartet way 6f btlpin th Indian waa by making him under stand that he was a a.aa firat and an Indian after helping him to help himself. Thia principle appealed to the beat there waa in the Indian and in conjunction with the leaders ot his own race, trained tnd educated In public school and colleges, these gov ernment officials have bad little real difficulty In securing the hearty co operation of Poor Lo. Now, with all this lead placed npon the tax rol's in this and other atatea, the Indlaa la not gelng to be the oaly It is recorded, but probably forgot one benefited; the entire population tea, history tbat "Jim" Dahlmaa was will share ia that accrued benefit and I at oae time offered the apaolatateat THE BKK: jtfce taxable wealth in ttiny Hates 0f la will be vastly Increased. two days of his campaign in Omaha and South OmaW and the general verdict Is tuat be bag personally mad good impression and certainly driven superior to his opponent, the cowboy mayor, and aa thief executive of a great state like Nebraska would un questionably reflect credit upon the office, whereas Mayor "Jim" as gov ernor would keep us In constant fear of some disgraceful act. Mr. Aldrlch undertook to assure the people of Omaha and South Omaha that if elected he will be governor of the entire state and all tbe varied In terests of its people, and not of any one special Interest; that Omaha would have his help in aaaerting its rights snd protecting Its Industries ai much as any other part of the slate. ' Mr. Aldrlch endeavored to persuade the people here to accept county op tion, but we doubt that he mae any headway in this direction. The large majority of the people of Omaha and South Omaha believe that the present law permitting each city and town to decide whether the selling ot liquor shall be licensed Is preferable to let ting the people of the county, outside of the city, decide. The candidates for the legislature on both party tickets have alL with posalbly one ex ception, declared against county op tion, and if the legislature is against such a measure the governor will not be called on either to approve or veto. Mr. Aldrlch laid stress on the bene fits accruing to Omaha from the re form legislation In whose enactment be participated as member of the state senate in 1907. As a law-maker he put our people under obligation to him In many ways and has a right to expect a reasonable degree of re ciprocity. Deneen Points the Way. V Governor Deneen has sounded the keynote of the next legislative reform in Illinois. If his prqgram is followed out tt will be a substantial reform, looking to a sensible system of con structive work and political house- cleaning without any of the sentimen tal stage craft which too often dims good promises and impairs faithful service. The governor's appeal to the decent people of his state certainly Is timely, and should be heeded in such a way that this work of rejuvenation may actually be done, and that good men may be sent to Springfield to do , and not a lot of political pirates, such as -wrought the havoc In tbe last session, . - The people of Illinois have to look to the republican party for this reform. The republican party Is In such a posi tion that it has to do th work, If it Is done. The democratic party, which has renominated moat of its faithless members who brought such Ignominy on the state before, cannot reasonably be entrusted with the duty. If there was ever a time when the republicans of that stste needed to get together this would seem to be that time. The governor, as the leader of his party in the state, is encouraged by what he believes to be the fact that thle coali tion is e'ther complete or in process of formation. If the upheaval emanatiag from the acandal of the last legislature leads to a complete readjustment of condi tions in Illinois, it will be a recom pense, if not a justification, sufficient tc make tbe people feel that all was not lost la the mire of crooked poli tics. Governor Deneen undertakes a large task, but one he muat eaaay and he must succeed, even though that in volve the sturdiest sort of . grit and qualities of leadership. If the taxpayers of Douglas county want a safe, ,e and economical man agement of county affairs they will see to V. that tbe three republicans ruuning for county commissioners are elected. The three republicaag have reputations for bonoaty, integrity and ability, while none of their three dem ocratic opponent would ba coaaldered by a' good business house for sny re sponsible position. The British court's acquittal of Miss Leneve Immediately after Its convic tion of Dr. Crlppea is another evidence of ita strong tendency to mete out jus tice to those who come before It. Tbe deluded little victim of this monster has suffered tortures already for her part and the court does well to free her and afford her a chance to go and behave herself. With Meaara. Boyle. Redmond, Dev lin and O'Connor still pleading tbe Irish cause and collecting funds to carry on tbe fight, our friend who signed himself "Aa Irishman" and de clared tbat the Iriah now had, and have alwaya had, full rlghta of free dom and liberty under the Britiah flag la not quite borne out. Tbe city council cannot nod enough money to keep the police department Intact until tbe end of the year, but tbe democratic members a week or two ago tried to vote away enough money to pay a month's salary to twenty policemen to buy needless vot ing machine demanded only by dam ocratle bosses. 0MA!L4, THUllUAY, OOTUBKR -27, 1910.

' No one is finding fault with tbe way Congressman Hitchcock voted on the tariff. When the tariff bill came up for passage in tbe bouae Congressman ll!Uhtok was over in Kurope enjoy ing himself with the plutocrats on tbe $7,300 a year he was drawing ont of the national treasury to represent thli constituency In Washington. Senator Frank Rannern and Attorney Joel Went have been reteWied In the in terest of fafr play and honeet election World-Herald. Oh me! Oh my!

"I was not senator from New Tork dur ing the time stated" The financial clerk explained that he could not change the booka in lew of the practice. He explained to Senator Hill that he. th senator, could draw th money and then cover It Into the treas ury. Thla Mr. Hill declined to do and threatened to begin mandamus proceed ings agalnat the aenate disbursing officer to compel Mm to change Ma bookkeeping methods.

Plana for extending the preaent federal control of food and drug labels so ae to cover newspaper advertising were dteouseed at a' conference of official ef th agricul tural department In Washington laat weak. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, th department' authority en poleone, beHwre that thar Is urgent need for a draetle federal censocahlp of such food and drug advertising. It waa to consider hla proposal en this ut)ot that Che conference was called. Although many quacks and manufac turers of adulterated foeda and spurious medicine have been put out of business merely by barring their circular from the mall, other, mors powerful, have eurvrved this meaenr by turning t th newspapers and flooding the country with their advertisement. r to the preaent thn thle haa been aafe expedient for the men who have been getting a gullible publte te invest In their worthless and often dangeroua wares. If Dr. Wiley's plan I carried out, however, Uncle' Sam - may undertake the prosecution of all advertisers who sell through the medium of newspapers and mamsin war which they eannet pueh with circular and which fall to com up to th requirements of the feed and drug aof. Dr. Wiley, In presenting hi vlarws to th conference, declared It t be hie con viction that advertisements misrepresent ing the chsraUr enj virtue ef foods and drugs constitute misbranding, aa defined by the food and drug act.

It being sovereign. That settles the law If not the right. But what strikes us aa queer la the readlnesa with which railway lawyera ahlft ground a th exigencies of their client's Interest demand. A railway la private property of Its shareholder, a private highway for th us ef which the company may charge what It will. Turning about te face a sit nation requiring th negation of that prop osition they arg-u that th railway la a publio highway, part and paroel of th etate'e sovereignty and that atatutea of limitation te which ordinary mortals have to submit are hurtlesa to their right of property. An ordinary mortal can ba dl vested ef title te land by an open, notort- eua and adveree poeaesslon of It by an other, but a railway cannot be.
