The federal census statistics make
ont a very good case for th Nebraska
child labor law, showing that only
nine-tenth of 1 per cent of the wage
earner of thlt state are under It
year of age. Our child labor law Is
designed to keep children under It in
school during the school year, and,
judging from the census, which ap
plies to 190. the large majority of
them are there. The statute permits
tht employment of children between
the ages of H and 16 out of the
school season and during the achooT
season under certain restrictions.
but In 1909 only 217 children less
than 16 years of ag were found by
the government enumerators to be
earning wages.
Nebraska's total number of wage-
earners that year wat 24,336 and
85 J per cent of these, or 30.76a,
were male, leaving 13. g per cent or
l.t&t female, with nine-tenth of 1
per cent only under 16 year of age.

What would b th democrat' at

and th spoilt system were they In

clearly understood from their alti

uceeded In stealthily slipping

It remains, therefor, for the senate
to defeat It, If It It to b headed off.

Misapprehensions.
Tho suggestions of several am-
bltlout gentlemen, who expect to be
member of the next r publican na
tional committee, that they ought
not to have to wait until after the
coming convention when In due
courao they would be Installed nnder

based upon soma fundamental mis

only to tb control and regulation
of primaries and conventions within
the state, and th manner of (elect

entitled to representation. Each na
tional committee) haa a prescribed
way of filling vacancies that 'may
occur In Ita membership, but even
ere the endorsement of a candidate
either by primary or convention, or
even by the convention delegation,
does not create a vacancy.-
It Just happen that for both the
big political part let, the national
committee I mad op of on from
ach atat and territory, but this
membership Is purely arbitrary and
quit within th power of tho con
vention which constitutes th com
mittee to chang. Where th state
hav enacted presidential primary
laws, thsy have assumed that th
committees would continue aa they
are now probably a wall grounded
assumption but it would be entirely
within th provlnc of th convention
to mak tho national committee eon
slst of two member from each tt
and territory, or three, or any num
ber of members, or It might think It
advlaabl to reduc th number and

Aaalo-eerman Relation.
Right Hon. A. J. Balfour, former prime
minister of treat Britain, contributes
to the N'ord and Sur an Important papr
on German naval and colonial policy as
viewed through British glasses. Mr.
Balfour mphatteal!y denies that Britain
Is Jealous of German development In the
workshops and field, or the expansion ot
trade relatione with- the outside world.
These developments are welcomed as a
means of stimulating British energy.
What Mr. Balfour considers the main
source of British suspicion and distrust
is th pan-German sentiment, proclaimed
in press and speeches. In favor . ot re
storing the boundaries of that older
German empire which extended from tbe
Adriatic to the Baltic and from the
Vistula to th Channel, aad to acquire
a G. man colonial empire outside of
Europe. Where can ,thls colonial empire
be obtained without conquest? Japan
dominates the tag east Africa Is al
ready partitioned. France and Great
Britain controlling the lion's share. In
no section of the world's map can Ger
many obtain colonial empire by means
other than conquest. All the colonial
prises are already under the flags of
land grabbing powers, and Germany
cannot obtain a new slice without at
tacking tha possessors. German naval
expansion, stimulated by pan-German
alms. Justify suspicion. England, Mr.
Balfour affirms, has no other desire than
to preserve what she holds by. every
right of possession and tills. But if
this possession compels hr In ths Ger
man mind "to stand In Germany's light,"
he regards both an entente and perma
nent peace as Impossible between the two

Homo Rale for Ireland.
One ef the few political -problems salut
ing the new king of Denmark. Christian
X concerns the autonomy of Iceland. Th
Icelanders are not very numerous, about
.. but they entertain large expecta
tions tad occasionally Insure vocally
against tb regulations of the mother
country. Agitation for larger autonomy
has continued with more or less bitterness
since Vflt A Joint committee appointed by
the lata King Frederick drafted an ex
ceedingly libera home rule charter for
Iceland a few years ago. hut a majority of
ths Icelanders, led by advocate ot In
dependence, rejected It. A recent turn of
the political Wheel puts ths home ruler
la the majority In the Ireland Parliament.
A revival of the rejected home rule char
ter Is now proposed, but the Dsnieh gov
ernment la reported Indisposed to agree tt
the former term of union. The new king,
fortunately, haa not been Identified with
either party and is In position to smooth
over th friction hitherto created. More
than likely the proposals of Jsn Hlgurds
son. loader of the Icelanders, will form
a basis for agree merit fnder the pro
posals Iceland would b placed andar a

Italy aad th War. .
Aa exception to the pro-Turkish tone
of tile British press In treating the Italian
Invasion of Tripoli is noted tn the letters
of a special correspondent of th tendon
Graphic, who has mads a tour of Italy
and observed th temper of the people.
Th continued popularity of th war was
felt e-erywher. tn north an south
Italy, sentiment being particularly out
spoken m tb Industrial north, whleh an
ticipate trade benefits througn tenitorisl
expansion. "Th Impetus for even thing,"
he writes. "I coming from the commer
cial men of the north of Italy, who see
aa outlet for then capital and their
produce under the Italian flag. Their
ambition, which I am bound to bel.eve

be a rivet to Frenca Algeria. It Is claimed
for Tripoli that It will excel Algiers as
