Baldrige for Congress.
Out of the triangular contest for
the republican nomination for con
gress. Howard H. Baldrige emerges
with a substantial lead over his com
petitors, and It will therefore be Mr.
Baldrige who will trr !t out with
Congressman Lobeck for the seat now
beld by the latter.
This congressional district, consist
ing of Douglas, Sarpy and Washing
ton counties, is naturally republican.
and by right, .hould b. represented
at Washington by a republican. The
truth is Congressman Lobeck is there
now, not on his own account, but be
cause he was carried along on th
democratic ticket as beneficiary of
the wet and dry fight of two years
ago. In which the democratic candi
date for governor was the rallying
point for the liberals.
On the relative merits and abilities
of the men Congressman Lobeck will
have no license to win out over
Baldrige. Mr. Baldrlge's position In
the business community, his standing
at the bar, his good record In other
public offices snd his services to bis
party and to the public mark him as
the man to redeem the district to the
republicans.
Chief Donahue Again Vindicated.
Chief or Police Donahue has again
been handsomely vindicated by the
decision of the supreme court in bis
favor in the ouster proceedings in
stituted against him by direction 'of
Governor Bhallenberger. The court
plainly aays tbst, notwithstanding all
the noise and froth In the hearing of
the charges, no case was established
showing anything like willful neglect
of duty that would Justify an adverse
finding. ' 1
Everyone in Omahs knows that the
city has never hsd a more faithful
and efficient head for Its police de
partment than It has today In Chief
Donahue, and that the constant war
fare waged upon him emanates from
sources that would use the position
for their own selfish ends. Everyone
here in Omaha also knows thst the
chief ha been made to bear the brunt
of this attack as a scspegoat for
others with whom responsibility
rests; that the . charge were
originally drawn to Invoke ouster
proceedings sgalnat the mayor and
police board members; that Governor
Bhallenberger' for purely political
reasons exculpated tbe mayor at the
outset, snd later upon legal advice,
annulled-th proceedings so far as
they related to the police board. Un
der such circumstances to hold the
chief of police culpable for the gen
eral policy of the department directed
by tbe mayor nd police commission
ers would have been an unmitigated
outrage. , , -y
Chief Donahue Is to be congratu
lated on Ml 1ndtoatlon, but no more
so than is Omaha on the assurance
of the continuant of his services. I
Work for Worker.
The San Francisco Chronicle de
clares that the league formed In that
. I(y,,(i)f ,,'ttao ostensible purpose qf
helping the "unemployed" Is hurting
the city by disseminating exaggerated
reports snd ststements of the number
of Idle men and the lack of employ'
mcnt In San Francisco. The Chronicle
says the governor of the etato had
an offtlcial investigation of the em
ployment situation made In that city
with a result demonstrating that the
condition is entirely normal, that no
more -men are Idle than Is natural at
tlila time of the year. It that Is true,
KnitthJiig should be done In Ess
Francisco's behalf to stop this black
washing of the city abroad by soma of
its own citizens. That is one of the
pernicious' evils, though, that many
cities have to put up with and the
strange thing is that those who give
their home town thin damaging pub
licity always seem to find some ex
cuse of reform or philanthropy In
Justification. But It la quite probsble
thst the unemployed In most If not
all cities will liuve a call to 'work
when the 'great construrtluD. cam
paigns of the railroads and other big
builders begin. The Burlington sys
tem recently gave employment to
6,000 men and advertised for an
other J.000 and that number will be
multiplied many times 'by sll the
western roads before long.
The Fame of Industrial Peace.
No news from the coal mine con
fereare these dss mar be considered
good news. The longer the confer
ences contiuu th loafer a strike Is
averted. Messrs. Baer and White, the
respective mine snd union leaders,
will achieve a fame for themselves of
sn enduring character If they succeed
finally In securing permsnent pence
snd no fame either or both might
achieve through the channels of a
disagreement or a strike would be
worthy a comparison with this fame
of Industrial peace.
To add to the other deterrents
thst stand between business and nor
mal prosperity in this eouatry Just
now, a tieup of the coal mines would
be a little more than a patient and
forbearing people should be called on
to suffer. The public finds Itself slow
to respond to appeals for sympathy
on either side ef this controversy; Its
sympathies lie alongside of Its
Interests and that la on the side of
peace snd Industry, against disorder
snd a strike.
It Is quite, probable that any strike
precipitated st this time ef such gen
eral effect as a coal mine strike
would fall to arouse much public
sympathy and the same may be said
of the pending troubles between the
eastern railroads and their engineers.
That does not mean that public senti
ment would necessarily be against the
employes, but it means that public
sentiment probably would be very
much outraged at the failure of the
factions to overlook selfish Interests
for the time being and sacrifice
something In behalf of the larger In-
I'"18' that ffectin the whole pe
pie.
The Thief of Time.
Without wishing to excuse offense
In the old rogue, we may admit that
procrastination la not alone -the thief
of time. The fellow who drops in on
you during your rush hours, when
business Is piled a foot or two high
before you, and takes as much of
your time as your patience and good
manners will permit you to grant
blm, where does he come in? Over
your desk you have that fine pungent
little motto:
This Is my busy dsy.
On the wall to the rear is another
one, reading:
Talk fast; that's the wsy I work.
And yet your visitor tarries and
talks, not faat, but long. In addition
to being a thief of your time, he
might, by a more vulgar classifica
tion, also be denominated a boor.
Time is golden. It k old, but true.
Yet with what astonishing profligacy
It Is wasted, by all of us, no matter
how furious th pace with which w
work. It Is not always the bead
burled In a huge pile of papers at
tbe deck that le most Improving the
time. Psrt of that time, perhaps,
should be spent In resting that weary
brain, or that tired body, as a pre
caution for the future. So It comes
by that on may be his own Ihlef of
time, and that, too, when he Imagines
himself most honest and prudent with
every moment at his command.
But the commonest waste of time
which most of us make Is the failure
to get out of each day and each hour
all that we can. Constsnt progress,
larger efficiency, should be tbe lauda
able ambition of every man and be
who neglects to improve tbe proces
sion of opportunities as they come
falls to achieve the end he had
aought. That Is a wast of time, quit
as much as that of procrsstlnstlon or
of th "friend" who ha Just dropped
In upon you.
To a man up a tree, that vault fix

bouse exhibits at least enough cir
cumstantial evidence to arouse sus
picion that th fixture men bad

driven or stampeded tnjo the unwisdom
of departing from thee fundamental
proposition:
"Referendum or recall of judicial deci
sions by vote of the people is the rankest
of revolutionary rot
"Recall of Judge Is an assault upon
th keystone of th arch of American
popular sovereignty.
"Initially and referendum a applied
to stat snd national legislation emascu
lates the legislator, eliminate political
leadership and weaken representative
government.
Initiative, referendum and recall ar
a trinity of heresies directly In conflict
with th American theory of self -govern

united under th American constitution.

OMAHA. April 3.-T0 the Editor ot Th
Bee: As an interpreter to the feelings
of a nation, whose existence Ivan been
an eternal misery, and where life Is a
suffering. I come to offer our most
hearty sympathy and sorrows to the
great and noble nation of America, who
has recently been terrified by one of th
most horrtbl tragedies tbe world has
ever seen.
Horrors ot Titanic remands me ot a
mourning event at th same nature, whose
third anniversary i gm nnfortunsts
sough to mourn.
In th latter part ef April, pns, I wai
th ay witness ot the most Inhuman bru
tal calamity which th human mind can
ver grasp My unhappy country,
Armenia, was one more reddened with
the Innocent blood af COM unfortunate
sons. Thousand of women and children
were the victims of th superstition of
the most merciless and evil blinded
Mohammedan vandalism. Our towns were
burned te ashes, our properties plundered,
our dear ones wr subjected to such de
grees of tortures thst human mind falls
te realise.
In this stag of affairs, of course, any
littles measure of sympathy and friendly
feeUnga expressed were appreciable.
though thy be powerless to enlighten
to. sny degree, our unfortunate and sor
row-darkened hearts, when, sir, you
wer th first nobis nstlon who stretched
us th first hand of sympathy; you were
the first that expressed hatred against
the mean tricks of the dirty Turks.
So, now, when w are before the un
known tomb ef thousands of Ill-fated vic
tims of ths horrible tragedy of tbe Titanic
our bleeding heart again unconsciously
run to the miseries of eur forsaken
nation, and through our slncara sym
pathies and sorrows we arc satisfied in
thinking that, heneeforth In eur eternal
trouble and misfortunes we will hive
the sisterly sympathies of this great
nation, more heartily and sincerely, a it
has praotlcally felt what a national
calamity Is. M. K. KRIKORIAN.

the attendants ar paid by th state

THE PEETECT WIFE.
New Tork Time.
She's not a member of a club.
d..w i..vr eiaae or women S rignts,
8he could not stand the sneer and snub
iii auiiraseiio incites.
She never gossips, never hears
Of scandal In another's life
To her a world of Joy appears
Because she Is th perfect wife.
She does not scold If home to dine
Her husband bring some city friends,
But serve the good cigars and wine
And to their general comfort tends.
Nor does she frown when morn reveals
Half-smoked cigars, a cause for strlf.
Upon the rugs where down she kneels.
Because she Is th perfect wife.
And should her husband phone to say
At business he will be detained.
She never thinks that some new play
May be the reason he remained.
To poker game h alway goes
At any time th game I rite.
And. win or lose, sh never knows
Because she Is the perfect wife.
When homeward sound, th rooster crows.
He doesn't have to ahed his shoes:
She never yet went through hi clothes.
As othere do when husbands snoose.
She doesn't wield the rolling pin.
Ho useful !n domectlc lit
When husbands blow their money In
Because sh I th perfect wife

And the User of heat, that hath tracked

What will ye no alien no more to the
