To entertain a bunch of candidates

without mentioning that they are
looking for vote or dilating apon

cruelty, tolerated only In th most
ciTtllsed commualtiea.

Investigations.
We are hard to please la this
country in the nutter of official In
vestigations. The popular cry is for
open hearings, where the people may
know what is going on. Congres
sional committees hare Investigated
and investigated and frequently be
hind closed doors, with sometimes
farcical results and seldom satisfac
tory ones. Almost th public has be
gun to look upon official investiga
tions as subject of ridicule.
When, therefore, it was proposed
that a sweeping Inquiry should be
made to get at the facts of the Ti
tanic diaster, wbst facta were not
exposed upon the surface, there was
doubt In some quarters as to its
feasibility. Most people now, how
ever, are apparently Inclined to the
belief that the Investigation has been
thoroughly conducted, that It has
brought to light msny facta the public
demanded and should have, and yet
there I om very harsh criticism
of the Investigation and of those per
sonally who conducted it, particu
larly Senator Smith of Michigan, the
chairman of the senate committee.
He I charged with being cruel In his
attitude toward the man Ismay. The
London press has declared that the
committee was not seeking facts, but
a acapegoat Tbat la aside the ques
tion. Of course, the London press
waa expected to look at It in that
squlnt-eysd way, but a few of the
American papers have taken similar
views only a few.
It doe seem, though, that tbla in
vestigation, conducted in the open,
with no star-chamber sessions and an
apparent desire only for th facts.
baa, from that standpoint, at least,
bean a success and aa example In tbe
Una of official Inqulrlea. Tat It
ha failed entirely to satisfy Ameri
cans. The question naturally sug
gests itself, would It be possible to
satlafy all? An Investigation Is a
delicate) proceeding.
Kaiiia Sulking.
Dispatches say Russia show no
Inclination to participate, with other
nation. In the Panama sxposltlon at
Sah Francisco In Kit. Th rea
son assigned I Russia' grievance
against th United State for tb
abrogaUoa of tb treaty of 113 J, a
treaty whose principal provisions
Russia never mad pretense at ob
serving.
In all probability this 1 th cor
rect explanation. Russia has been
sulking sine th president abrogated
tbat compact and It ha been doing
more than that It haa been pro
moting effort at a certain character
of publicity deslgnsd to glv th
wrong Impression as to th fact In
lb I remarkable case. Pamphlets
have been written and distributed
throughout this country and doubt
less others, pretending to set forth
the "truth" of the situation between
Ruasla and th United States,. " Cer
tain of the pamphlets art'fllled
with xcrpt from th foreign pre.
all tending to impose th brunt of
criticism, upon th American govern
ment. : i :,
; It la pot at all Strang that Rua
sla, which had persistently and con
tinuously Ignored treaty obligations
for forty years, would take unkindly
to th abrogation of the treaty, no
matter how Just or fair that action
waa. But Russia has nothing to
gain and nothing to lose by a
sulking attitude on her part It Is
to Russia's advantage to get and re
main on th beet of term with u.
Th United State 1 not going to
buy favor or friendship with an
nation at th expanse of th natural
right, and liberties of any sat or
sect of her sltliens. W crave Rus
sia' good will, but we must protect
American Jews as welt as American
French 6r Italian or any other part
of our -cltlienshlp, whether we are
favored wltf tbe friendship of a for
eign power or not Th United State
acted wisely and courageously. It
endured the sham as long as It
should. Russia will aee tbat In time.
Railway Terminal Combine.
Th decision- handed 4owa by the
United States supreme court last
week declaring tb Terminal Associa
tion of 8t Louis, which owns and
oontrola the union atation and ap
proaches In that city, a combination
In restraint of trade would have a
special Interest for us if by analogy
It applied to the railroad terminals
and station in Omaha. But beet au
thorities agree that the ruling does
not Include a Joint use such aa our
railroad have. : .
In 8t Louis the Terminal Associa
tion la made up of fourteen railroad
companies combined to share th cost
and expense of operation of common
terminals. The control, however, has
been held to be a monopoly because,
by the regulations, no Other railroad
can be admitted so long aa any one
road now In the association should
object Presumably, it is this
monopoly feature which has brought
down an adverse decision of the
court That there is no Intention,
however, to go beyond the particular
case is made plain In th opinion
rendered:
U Is not contended." eaM th court,
"that tb unification of th terminal fa
ctlttlee t tb great eitlee, where many
railroad avium center, la under all cir
enmatanoe and condition a oomblsatioa
In restraint of commerce. Whether It Is
a facility In aid of Internet commerce
or aa oareaaonaM restraint forbidden by
th act of roiiSTii a coaetrue: and
applied br thta court la the Standard OU
and Tcbacce rim wtU depend upon the
Intent to be Inferred from .the extent of
control thereby secured ever tnitrumen-
talitlea which such commerce la under
compulsion to uee, the method by which
uch control haa been brought about, and
the manner In which that control haa
been exerted."
Our Omaha union ststion with its
bridge and approaches is owned by
the Union Pacific, but maintained
and operated in conjunction with
fire other railroad companies. But
instead of being a hard and fast com
bination, the understanding is tbat
under tbe decision in the Rock Island
case any railroad may secure ad
mission on equal terms as of right
Our difficulty really comes from an
other direction in the refusal or in
ability of some of the co-operating
railroads to assent to and bear their
share of tbe cost of needed enlarge
ments aud Improvements. It is
bsrely possible that we may before
many years have to go Into court to
force the railroads to combine for
the purpose of giving us the terminal
facilities which Omaha should have.
May Bay and Spring Training.
This is May day. It seems to
have stolen In upon us fresh from
the lap of winter, which overstayed
Ita time. For tb man who has
'tended bis furnace since, last Oc
tober, there is rest and recreation
out in tbe green grass, where tbe
mischievous little dandelion peeps
his yellow head through the velvety
surface. He come to take the place
of sedentary habits, to limber up
the stiffened muscle and put the
athletic householder into fine form
for the later season. And If the
good housewife find time dragging
heavily upon her hands, she may run
out and give a tug or two at the per
sistent little vagrant on the sward,
to practice her up for tbe coming
war upon the fly.
Oh, th Joy of the merry month
of May do not all revolve around
the festive Maypol. Tbey do not
all rise from tb warble of th bird,
th croak of hylaa or area tbe babble
of tb brook. Tner ar a few May
Joy that have a more practical
phase to them than any of these
poetical fancies. But after so long
and arduous a cold season, men need
to have their systems saturated with
(he clastic air of th glowing sun
whenever' on can catch It glowing.
With all o'erlapplng of winter,
though, Its deep mow brought to the
thirsty aoil th molsturs It needed
and that give us great promise for
th tlm of reaping.
Bo, up from th basement and out
Into th grass with your old friends,
th garden rake, the digging knife
snd soon th lawnmower and be glad
that yon are not like some men to
whom Msy day means nothing but
moving day.'
Why All This Secrecy I
Although no suggestion by Th Be
will hav any weight with ouf Water
hoard, We 'nevertheless feel It' our
duty to Inquire why the sale of
17,900,000 of th $8,600,000 bond
lasua last year should be attempted In
stealthy secrecy.
Why should th Water board be
trying to dispose of these bonds at
private sale without advertising them
for public bids?
What reason is there to bellev
that a better price will be obtained
by a covert deal with a bond syndi
cs ts than by tb open competition
of a many bidders aa can be brought
to submit proposals?
In tbla matter Th Bee can have
no different Interest than that of the
taxpaying public to have the bonds
yield th beet price which tb credit
of th city can command. Omaha ha
never had $7,000,000 of bond to dis
pose of at one time. In fact, it haa not
$7,000,000 of bonds outstanding al
together. A $7,000,000 bond deal
would be a big one even for tho big
gest cities of th country. It seem
to us that a transaction of this mag
nitude should hav all tb publicity,
and all th light of day, that la pos
sible, and that every move by the
Water board should be above board,
It for no other purpose than to avoid
suspicion.
It transpire tbat on of th demo
cratic candidate for th stste senate
In an up-state district has likewise
landed the republican nomination by
having hi personal friends write his
name In on the ballot We remember
a little while ago when our demo
cratic oracle here were loudly de
claring that the republican nomi
nated In that way in the South
Omaha city primary were not entitled
to go on the ballot as party candi
dates. Will they protest in this
case? We guess not
The local medical association has
exonerated one of ita members
from charges of "unprofessional
conduct" for being the beneficiary of
newspaper publicity in the form of
feature stories about a charity opera
tion. It was proved that the surceon
did not psy for the advertising,
which, of course, exempts the offense
from unprofessionallsm.
How far gratitude in politics goes
is again exemplified by one of the
Citizens' anion candidates who Is
crying "Down with Dahlman," who
himself, was twice pulled through
into th city council by Dahlman, and
but fcr Dahlman would long ago
hav been sent to political oblivion.
If there is any one thing that
presidential primaries prove, it la
that the most experienced and (killed
political ' statisticians cannot make
any definite figure In advance
worth the paper they are written on.

OMAHA. April 3 -To th Editor of
The Bee. I am writing a book. Th'ak
of It! Hammond writing a book. Charley,
what do you know of Interest that you
could put in a book? I dos t know, but I
am writing a book? Why can't I writ a
book? I hav lived on tbla earth fifty-five
year and have eeea many change come
during the years. Some have come to me
that ar pleasant to remember and some
I don't car to recall. Few have been
given th opportunity to see as much of
my country and study her people aa I,
so I am writing a book.
I hav seen the Buckeye and the
Hoorier aa h la In his native state.
Th Backers and the Croeckars hav each
treated me well. I have heard. If I hav
not talked with th great men and
women of America, Hav seen the poor
wed land with only a few dollars and
later seen him pay for th best s part
meats on the best ship going back to
tell of hla success. Have seen th negr
la hi Innocence on bis nstiv heath and
again viewed aim aa he strutted down
Fifth avenue dressed in th latest fash
ion, Hav ea th ox cart and driv
er, six-foot tall, long hair and bare
footed, and then th auto that cost tie,
0CO. Hav had land offered me at an
acre that afterwards brought HO an
acre; seen a man sent to congress who
never waa out of his county, and who
ever had S10S of hla own, who drew
17.109 now, snd live Ilk a prince. Saw
the first well com In in aa oil field on
which th man had staked his alL After
wards saw hla bank book In which waa
credited IHS.SM. Hav seen a man get
up before a crowd who were against bis
Idea and before two sours that same
crowd waa begging him to ahow them
tb way to the cross. Don't you think
I can writ a book? Hav sees woman
sell the dearest thing on earth for a
few gaudy clothee. Hav seen men throw
sway character and honor In order to
mak a show and attract attention. Hav
eeen children taught to 11 and after
ward thos Ilea return to burn on th
heads of thos who taught them as coals
of fire.
Hav sent a boy of under else,
poorly dad, with little learning, but with
his very soul on fire to be something In
th world mount over obstacles other
had feared to attack. Tea, seen him
ellmb until today he draw ta.000 a year.
Hav seen on man build a house only
tor some other more careful man to live
In it Hav seen a maa struggls all hi
llf paying life Insurance that hla wife,
It sh survived him, might not wash,
and vrhen he died her lasy brother and
sisters flock down on her like vultures
and eat It up In two years, wnl l eh la
her old ag took In sawing.
I hav seen a man honored twice as
president ef thee United States, leave
th offlc loved by th nation, go over
to Europ and there glvea honor never
before bestowed on an American. Seen
that same maa return snd throwing all
of this to lbs wind get dowa Into dirty
ward and ststs politic and be defeated
by his owa gang. Hav seen htm divide
hi party that had honored him and
loved him, seen him rid the steam roller
over th leaders and laugh at th act.
Hav seen him cry for mercy when th
earn steam roller was crushing him aad
hla frlen da ander th earn engineer.
Hav seen articles written against a man
of wealth whoa conduct gave his wits
cause for divorce, and Inside of two
years th same papers were full of
praise for his Show of bravery In going
down with th ship rather than occupy
a eeat by tb aids of his new wife while
a woman or Child could be found to o.
Hav seen th greed for gold so strong
In a young maa that he would hold mes
sage to loved sties ea shore telling1 of
th safety or loss of loved ones In th
(hip that he might for dollars sell his
story.
Have seen th two leedlng men of th
nation fall out and tell things about on
another that thay might Influence votea
. Hav heard a candidate tor the high
effloe of president say If he could have
the votes of th common peopl bis com
petitor could have the silk stockings and
vested Interests, when he knew a at
that very tlm had on and never wore
anything but silk stockings and silk

David Anderson's letter, we eould not help
but think thst be bad matters about
correctly alsed up, so far as Nebraska re
publicanism Is concerned. His prophesy
ts not real pretty for aa old Ufa-long re
publican to took at, but when w come
to consider th prominent basis he has
for making such as ugly prophesy, we
o not wonder that th old veteran looks
at It In tbat light
During It entire statehood Nebraska
has been compelled to labor under great
dlaadvantage at Washington becaus of
Inexperienced senatorial efficiency. Many
of our older states, especially the New
England states, have retained their een-
atora for from eighteen to thirty years,
and in some eases longer than t hat-
But th policy of this state Is to send
a new man every term and expect him to
cope with old and experienced members
and then we get mad becaus he doe
not com up to our expectations snd
straightway we turn him down and
and some ether Inexperienced aspirants.

day by th Ohio constitutional conven
tion In refusing by a vote of S7 to 5 to
Incorporate a provision for tb recall of
all officials. Including th Judiciary. Th
Ohio convention Includes among Its mem
bers a large proportion of progressive
in various stagea of se ocresslveness, and
some of the spokesmen and leading fig
ares of that body hav been distinguished
from th beginning of the session for
anything rather than balance or caution.
If th vote on thl subject had been
taken two montna or so ago or even a
month ago the result probably would
hav been different but th vicious and
foolish recall device haa been subjected
to th most destructive criticism and
will scarcely survive th ephemeral hys
teria of this campaign.

TEE C0SYIET.
Minna Irving In Leslie's.
H aald he hated motor cars
And wished tbey all could be
Marooned upon a lonely Isle,
Or sunk beneath the sea.
Ha vowed a chauffeur ought te hang
In chain from every limb,
And, reckoned that his faithful mare
Waa good enough for him. -'
But kt! one morning he awoke
And found himself the heir
To all his uncle's boarded wealth.
And straightaway sold the max.
He bought a little runabout
A sporty red machine.
And elsd In cap and goggles Joined .
Th guild of gasoline.
He ride all day and half th night
He love to tost th horn.
And passes the horses on th road
With looks of lofty acorn.
"I tell you." he delights to say,
"To travel fast and far
For business and for pleasure too.
There's nothing like th car."
