commission plan
election baa been fought out, reduc
ing the lilt ot name from which
councilman to administer our city
government are to be chosen from
eighty-six to fourteen, and we sow
know who is really In the running.
Of the fourteen high men In the
primary, soven will be awarded offl
tlal commissions in the election to
be held May 7. If the primary were
the election the councilmen would
be the seven top men at disclosed by
the order of the vote, but there Is bo
certainty that this relative vote
letting strength will be reasserted
without variation.
The outcome Is particularly a tea-
! timonlal to the two factors ot adver
tising and organising rat'aer than a
decision upon any issue. The Citl
sens' union slate candidates are all
nominated, and yet Mayor Dahlman,
against whom Its proclamations ful
minated, leads all. What we mean
to say Is, that the success of the Cit
izens' union slate apparently la to be
credited, not to Its slogan, but rather
to concentrated organization, sys
tematic effort and Intelligent pub
licity. The people of Omaha will now
have a month to digest the returns,
to consider questions of capacity and
availability, to settle down to the
possibilities afforded by the range
of choice and then make definite sad
flaal decision.

In Illinois.
The presidential preference vote
In Illinois la unquestlonsbly a
feather In the cap of Colonel Roose
velt on the republican side, and of
Champ Clark on the democratic aide.
Just what has given tbe colon el
bis large majority It la Idle to specu
late. Local conditions have kept
Illinois republicans In a state of fer
ment for some time, and his personal
campaigning no doubt aroused his
following to enthusiasm. The ex
pressed bop ot the Tatt forces to
carry one-half of the districts has
beea disappointed, but the Illinois
vote In tbe convention Is not neces
sary to Mr. Taft'a success. In tact.
In the convention four years ago
Illinois wss likewise against him
giving him only three of Ita fifty
eight votes, so that, comparatively
spesklng, the loss Is not so great as
It looks. The Roosevelt spokesmen
seem to think the Illinois primary
will have aa overpowering effect la
other etstes, but this Is extremely
improbable.
To the democrats Champ Clark"
victory Is really more significant, be
cause It puts hint clearly In the lead
among the democratic presldsnttal
aspirants. Governor Harmon was
not entered In the Illinois contest.
sad as against Woodrow Wilson ,tb
Clark victory Is a showing ot eon
servatlve strength, even though h
found Jils chief champion In the
mfty
of Illinois to Missouri must have
given Clark an advantage, but never
theless capturing Illinois must make
his stock go up materially. '
they mention iir weekly newspaper

Now in Massachusetts some spin
sters have banded themselves to
gether into the Women's Homestead
association. They first sought to tax
bachelors into matrimony and fail
ing In that they have combined their
power to prevent bachelors from
holding public office, deriding them
aa "arrogant," "egostical," "self
ish." No doubt Massachusetts bach
elors are all of those, but it Is
beyond oar ken to imsglne that
Kansas bschelors, especially Pres
ton, Kin., bachelors, could be any of
that. We are sure they are yielding,
not arrogant; modest, not egotisti
cal; generous, not selfish. They even
admit aa much In their published de
scriptions. What Is to prevent,
therefore, some sort of meeting of at
least fifteen of these unhappy New
England spinsters and these knight
erranta of dear old Preston? It
looks like the best kind ot a chance
for another Intermingling of Massa
chusetts and Kansas, at ' the same
time making thirty hearts best as
fifteen.

Mexico Ceniori the Hews
President Madero bae decided
against a free press for Mexico. Ho
has established a rigorous cfliaor
ehlp of the Internal news, so that
the papers are not permitted to print
tbe tacts about the revolution. The
Mexican Herald, (he leading English
paper la the republic, recently ap
peared with Its front page Illustrat
ing by blank white apaeea the ef
fects of the embargo. It looked as
It large stories had been lifted bod
ily here and there. The entire night
wire service ot tbe Associated Press
had been cut out under orders from
the executive.
Madero may suppress the facta,
but he will never suppress the revo
lution, we think, this wsy. His ac
tion ' might fit Into the national
policy of Turkey or Russia, but It
seems incongruous with that ot Mex
ico, Itself a republic. In name, at
least, situated on the very thresh
old of the greatest of republics. Even
China Is giving free rein to Its press,
Its great men recognising tbe prime
necessity ot natrammeled Journal
ism. Msdero'a action la a backward
step.
80 far aa appears, the embargo
Is not based upon a charge of false
publication, or of any Intentional
distorting of the facta, but simply
on Madero'a notion that it would be
a good thing not to print the news
of the revolution, still asserting It
self In desultory warfare. Mani
festly. Mexico Is a alck republic and
the very tact that Ita president can
enforce such an order Is one of the
surest symptoms.
European Industrial Courts.
Prsnce, Germany and Swltierland
seem to be achieving successful snd
satisfactory results through tbeir In
dustrial courts, whose Judges for the
most part, are composed of employ
ers and employes. Justice Is speedy
and cheap, - so far as financial ex
pense goes and, in the great major
ity of cases, the verdicts are
acknowledged aa fair and Just. But
owing to the slight cost of litlgstion,
the number of cases Is Urge, most
of them being Instituted by the em
ployes. For Instance, in the Ger
man empire last year 111,281 cases
came before tbe Industrial courts
and only ( per cent were brought by
employers.
Most of these esses' Involved dis
putes over wagea or working condi
tions, very minor matters often en
tering Into litigation. This seems
to Indicate one Dad feature ot the
system, namely, that It unnecessar
ily encourages and multiplies litlgs
tion, but where the results are 10
mutually satisfactory, perhaps that
evil may be endured. It certainly
would seem to be better than open
breaches between labor and capital,
prolonged strikes, entailing losses on
both sides, to ssy nothing of the enor
mous and unjust burdens entslled by
tbe public aa the Innocent third party.
Whether the system would work so
wsll la this country la a question and
yet there la room for tremendous Im
provement In tbe relstions ot labor
and capital here. Trades unionism
alone has not done as much aa can be
done, tnd, on the other hand, the
employers' organisations have fallen

termer, ssld that Mr. Roosevelt had once
charged the people ot Illinois with being
unfitted to b Intrusted with self-government.
This raised a hubbub and tbe state
ment was challenged. Whereupon Mr.
Harlan read from Mr. Reoeevelt's essay,
"American Ideala," this: "If ths govern
ment generally go into the hands of such
mea as Altgeid the republlo would go to
pleeee la a year, and It would be right
that It ahould go to pieces, for the elec
tion of sucb men shows that the people
electing them are unfit to be Intrusted
with self-government." It la awkward for
s man who chsnges hi point of view
every few minutes to hava a record.

Stay us not. for we hear the rounda
Of laughter and song by night
In placea gay where adventure abound
And paaaloa and fierce delight
Where warm lips whisper a careless
caress.
And cheeks are flushed with wine: -Where
flames of women In wanton dress
Will come to a lasy aign.
Little we'll reck of the hours of dawn
Nor care when the hghta grow dim.
But wa ll bow us now ere youth has
flown
Te tbo gods of wild night whim.
Tou who sit by your fireside bright
With children sbout your knee.
May shun th apell of the iawleaa Bight
That beckons auch aa we, -
For th whit lights call to the lonely
man
Swamped In the friendless fray.
With home nor friend nor love of clan
To know at the close of dav.
