What could MlBther McGraw have meant by telling Home Run Baker, "We will get you?" Police and Politic. Senator Hitchcock's World-Herald has dug up an editorial printed In The Dee four years ago urging the complete divorce of the police from politics, and advocating a bill to that end, drawn by the editor of The Dee and Introduced in the legislature at his request. Our editorial Is good reading, the bent that has appeared In the World-Herald in a long time, and we reiterate every word of It. Dut the Hitchcock organ Is in no po sition to claim the benefit of clergy under It for Itself or for any of its democratic favorites. Had the demo crats come to the support of the bill at the time, it would have become a law, and members of tho police board would have been prohibited from be coming candidates for office. Dut tho democrats, aided and abetted by Mr. Hitchcock's paper, beat the bill because the police commission at that time wbs counted by them as their political ally. The Dee has always believed and now believes that the police should be kept out of politics, and for that reason stood firm against the elec tive police commission, which Son ator Hitchcock and his democratic legislature saddled upon us over The Dee's protests. When that subject was being agitated Senator Hitch cock's newspaper said: The people should have a right, as they fit, to elect democratic! commission- era or republican commissioners, or part democratic and part republican, Juat a they choose. The avowed purpone of the demo cratic legislature in making the po lice board elective was to put it back into politics, their expectation being that the democrats would capture the board and use tt for democratic poll- tics, and it was not their fault that this expectation was not met. Last year the democratic member of the police board heided the demo cratic ticket as candidate for Hover nor, but Mr. Hitchcock, who bad pinned his senatorial candidacy to Mayor "Jim's" coat-tails, uttered not a word of protest or objection. The editor of The Dee will be glad to offer again to the next legislature the bill that should have been passed four years ago, revised to fit every one who has authority or control over the police department directly or indirectly, If Senator Hitchcock and bis newspaper will promise now to Join with him in procuring its enactment. Perhaps not, but It should do so by showing up the downright and de liberate fraud resorted and con nived In by the democratic candidate. Iji Follctte Tour In Doubt. Headline, If that is all. that is In doubt, pros pects are not so bad. tt Ah Stand Pat, the Chinese revolu tlonary leader, paradoxically as may seem, is a rantankeroua insur gent. The Houston Post cays Dixie our national air. 'It certainly Is our most thrilling air if the applause Is the test.

A bill passed by the state legisla ture providing for equal pay to men nd women school teachers in New fork City has been signed by Mayor Gaynor nnd sent to Governor Dlx for final approval or disapproval. It contemplates an increase of t3,J00,- 00 in the clty'a budget to meet the ncrrased salaries. The legislature. by the way, was committed to "the argent possible measure of home rule for all cities." Judging from the Now York papers, that city is lolently opposed to this measure, so that, looking at the bill quite apart from its inherent character, it is an other example of the fidelity of this democratic Tammany legislature. Mayor Gaynor Justifies his signing of the bill by retorting to his critics, that similar bills have been repeat edly passed and that the legislature's will so positively expressed ought not to bo overridden. Dut here comes in the will of the people who have to bear the burden of the law. Good or bad, if they are opposed to it, ought their will be overridden? The reply Is that while this bill has been repeatedly passed by the legis lature, It has likewise been repeat edly vetoed and that therefore It should be vetoed again. The mayor has been enthusiasti cally felicitated by women teachers for signing the bill. He gave them one bit of good advice, when he warned them that they would now have to look out that unfriendly boards did not employ a dispropor tionately larger number of men teachers. Another thing that comes up In such a case is the making of a fair division of the Increases among all the teachers alike. Doubtless this action In New York, if tho gov ernor signs the bill, will become a tremendous stimulus to sinister de mands in other cities. Rcgnrdless of the local circumstances, the prin- ciple that a person is worthy of his hire, applies as much to woman as to man and the real question re solves eventually Into one as to what constitutes equal work? Whatever little Japan Is thlnkln of doing to China better be done quick, for Jack, the Giant Killer, Is coining to life fast. Two things to remember about next Saturday: Last day to register for the coming election and the last day of the Land show. A gentleman from Canton, China. says they have a population there of 2,000,000 "not one of whom has ever seen the picture of an elephant." What's the Joke? It seems that The Dee Is the only newspaper lu Omaha with the cour age to expose and denounce a medi cal fraud preying on the unfortunate victims of disease. Mr. Bryan Is spending three days In the Third Nebraska district. That 7.000 majority polled by the late democratic congressman must be In danger of melting away. Mr. Bryan tells the so-called In surgent republicans that they are democrats at heart. On his next visit, he will try to persuade them to put on the democratic livery. WBBBBBaBBBBaSBBBaaBaBaaBaBBMBJBBHBBMaaBBSi Omaha, pulls dowa seventh prlxo In Uncle Barn's latest land lottery, If that Is the way the awards are to be made, we should be glad to have some of them come this way, It will be a question which will be surprised the most our public works contractors or the public If the work, of street Improvement is cleaned up before the open season closes. Not much nonpartlsanshlp talk Is being heard from our democratic friends this year. The nonpartisan ship bunco game did not work out two years ago, and as a conaoquttnee they are taking another tack. Senator Hitchcock's newspaper ad mits that Ita circumstantial account vt that meeting of Fifth ward re publicans was pure fake, but it keeps on printing the sam kind of fakes whenever It serve Its purpose. Dy the way, w hat about using the prosecuting machinery of tfca county to force them to lino up for the cNraocratic ticket by talking th eVyuty county attoruey iiuJriuaa of C (liiiliCKlwwa COt COUtlullUtff Those Santa Claus Letters. Dy order of the Poatoffice depart' ment the Santa Claus letters that customarily pour Into postofflces during the Christmas time will go to the dead letter office hereafter. Originally this custom of children dropping letters addressed to Santa Claus In the mall box was taken as a sweet little token of Juvenile In nocence and was thus Indulged by magnanimous government by turn Ing them over to charitable people or societies. But impostors and graft ers of different sorts, seeing the pos slbllltles of the practice, went to writing such letters, with the result that not only have the mails been wrongly used, but postofflces and postal forces all over the country have been deluged by this sort of matter at the very busiest part of tho year. It Is difficult enough at best for the postal machinery, thor ough as it Is, to handle the annual Christmas mall. It requires full and extra forces of men and women working overtime to do It and cer tainly if there is any place where the burden can be lightened without curtailing legitimate service It ought to be done. Parents and guardians will do well, therefore, to advise their chil dren that their good Uncle Sam has gone out of the Santa Claus business and that if they have such epistles to send, send thorn to some Good Samaritan. With all the charitable and philanthropic means of spread ing Christmas cheer, It Is hardly probable that thla action of the gov eminent is going to deny that cheer to any deserving little one. The Bunco Game Blocked. The democratic bntico game up in the Third Nebraska district whereby the democratic nominee sought to get on the ticket a aecond time mis- branded as a populist, has been blocked, for which Secretary of State Walt deserves ail due credit. In the hearing on the protest of this fake nomination certificate, tt developed that the pretended popu list delegate convention consisted of six or seven people, not known to have been delegated to represent anyone, and tnat tne chairman ana secretary who signed the certificate were both avowed democrats who ad mitted having voted in the demo cratic primaries. The whole thing was a fraud concocted by demo crats to steal the populist name, thus purloining for the democratic can didate all the straight populist ballots to which he had no right or claim, The wonder is that any democrat rat' ing himself as of congressional site, and maklug pretense to honesty and fairness, should stoop to auch transparent deception to promote bis political ambition. If the populists of the Third district want to vote for a democrat, there Is nothing to stop them, but they will know that they are voting, not for a populist but for a democrat shorn of his stolen populist disguise. Secretary of State Walt ta his ruling aaya that he doc pot think the decision will change an vvtta, It seems that "Charley" Fanning is now fussing about the Judges and clerks of election named by "Doss" Flynn to run the primaries at which he was to be nominated for district court clerk. If any of the Judges and clerks are not qualified for the elec tlon, they were In the same boat for the primary, but nary protest or objection from any source. Those democratic machinists should get to gether earlier. Hooking Backward HiisOnv inOmnim r COMPILED H1QM PtR FILc a U OCT. 26.

Orand Island Independent: The World- neraid is making a pathetic plea for tut. inteiests of the "central" and "western" parts of the state, in the matter of the election of a railway commissioner Ij succeed Mr. Furse of Alma. It points out the tact that th holdover members, Mr dark and Mr. Winnett, represent Lin coln and Omaha, respectively, and tna. the election of the republican candidate. ihomus Hall of Lincoln, would give Lin coin two men on the commission, while Omaha only had one and the rest ot tne state none. However, Mike Harrington, nother very prominent democrauo or cle, and chairman ot the late democratic state convention, has warned us a bit agulnst this tender solicitude. He has anked us to believe him when he declares that Mr. Harmon Is strictly a railroau candidate on the commission, and, by inference, that It is aot so Important as to what particular city a candidate comet Irom as it Is Important whether he will represent the railroads particularly, or all interests on 'the commission.

It has succeeded In Its fights against the Standard Oil trust, the To bacco trust, the Electrical trust, the Pow der trust, the Bath-Tub trust, the South ern Wholesale Grocers' Association trust and a few other minor trusts. The Coal trust won In the lower or minor courts. but can hardly expect to escape chastise ment by the supreme court when Its poli cies are now up for review. That the courts have decided every caso In favor of the government may be taken as proof that the h'herman anti-trust law doea not permit of any other Interpreta tion than that given it by our highest tribunals of Jurisprudence.
