' The Houston Post says Bryan aever said a good word for. the sotth. Well, he Invested some of his ; money in a Texas ranch, which may be the reason. When the ..republican national convention renominated the ticket ot ' four years ago, the same old demo crat lc ticket of Bryan and Kern sug gested itself to a lot of people. - At any .rate.: the ..taxpayers bt Omaha are no longer losing f 500 a day on borrowed mpney costing 4H per cent interest and drawing only ft. per cent from the depository banks Those who began to discount Taft's cnancea of. election' at .th end ofi the Chicago convention, did not figure on what the democrats would do at Baltimore for republican-sue cess. -t " ; Mayor "Jim accounts for .the empty bottles on the floor of the cpnvention hall at Baltimore by say ing it was hot and the delegates were thirsty..

Going downJ ' 4 Wilson's Nomination. The nomination of Woodrow Wil son to head the democratic presi dential ticket, after a prolonged dead lock carrying the convention Into the second week, is unquestionably due to the stubborn and successful fight put up by Mr. Bryan against the other candidates.' Mr. Bryan nomi nated Woodrow Wilson by his own personal efforts as much as he nomi nated himself in 1696 by his famous! "cross of gold and crown Of thorns' speech. He has. not only nominated him, but has set him upon a platform hall-marked by Bryan, so that 'be represents Bryanlsm as much, and more, than could any one else except the original himself. Personally, Governor Wilson hasj some admirable traits, but politically he will have to run the gauntlet as the representative of the Bryan wing of the democratic party. It Is a ques tion whether be can obliterate the acerbity of the convention struggle, and then a still more open question whether he can appeal as strongly to sober thinking people as his repub lican opponent. At Least a Careful Fourth. Some years ago an Omaha city council enacted an ordinance which forbade the use of firearms and ex plosives, but our mayors haye felt called on to "follow the custom and suspend" the restriction on free use ot dangerous noise-producing de vices for the glorious Fourth. So we may scarcely expect any sharp devia tion from this rule this year which means that we shall not enjoy a "safe and sane" Fourth in the same sense as do other cities. But let us come as near to it as possible under the circumstances and have at least a careful Fourth. With- due precau tion the casualty list may bo kept down, even though our people are not ready to abolish It entirely. Most cities have made great strides toward a really safe and sane cele bration of the nation's independence anniversary. More or less approach to this ideal was generally made last year, when the death list on the Fourth la the country at large was only 1,603. The year before It was 2,923, while In 1909, when little ef fort was made for safety and sanity, the death roll went up to 5,305. Merely from a humanitarian stand' point, does it pay? Let every house. hold answer the question in the quiet of reason.' - ' ; ' - " Seeing; America First. - Records of travel show & decided falling oft this year in Americans touring Europe and a corresponding gain In Americans seeing their own land. Without disparaging the value of foreign travel for it has its advantagesAmericans can well afford to take a lay-off one year and do the most of their sight-Seelug at home. Many of them most familiar with European places know too lit tle by personal observation of sur passingly more scenic and interest ing parts of the United States. Am bassador James Bryce, one of the most noted ot world travelers, in an exhaustive comparison of natural sceneries, puts America far ahead of every other 'land. So, from that standpoint, our people lose nothing by "seeing America first." If we were to assign a reason for this turn in travel tables this year, it would not be the Titanic tragedy so much as the persistent and continuous campaign of publicity intelligently carried on by promotion agencies. A Defective Statistical System.. A few days ago Deputy State Labor Commissioner Ouye was quoted in The Bee as directing attention to a large amount of government land In Nebraska yet subject to homestead. Since then, he aays, he has been over whelmed with correspondence on the subject. People want to get at the land, of course. But Mr. Cuye is with out the necessary data as to the land'a precise character and location and must first make a personal visit to it before he can answer many of the Questions being hurled .at him through the mails. '' ' " V; '- This is only one reminder of the very defective system of. statistics, the almost absende of any provision for such a system, we have at; the atate house. The labor commissioner is supposed to be the state's statisti cian, but the atate has given him very little equipment. This very -experience should serve to call the matter forcibly to the attention of the legisla ture next winter, so that adequate provision for the future may be made. , the First Aviatrice Dead. The first aviatrice Miss . Harriet Qutmby, has forfeited her. life to the yet infant aerial art that already has levied sd great a human toll.' In her fatality are the horrors fof tragedy magnified. People who may grow in different to a succession , of violent fatalities among men are more deeply moved at -the tragic - death of one woman. 'We might wish .that until the fixed principles ot aviation were developed woman would find her di version, or - satisfy her . desire for heroics, in less hazardous under takings. - ,v''..;v,. iBuMhls catastrophe in which Miss Quimby and her male'- escort : are killed simply reminds us once more that before flight becomes reasonably safe roost of its pioneers will have sacrificed their . lives for the little progress achieve?

If It had been there would likely have been a difference of 40 to TO degrees between the light and dark bulb thermometers.

"And this Is realty th milk In th water bill cocosnut which properly should have bn labeled, "A bill to provide R. 8. Howell with a lucrative job as com missioner of waterworks." February 4.' 1903. "It is pointed out that th author of the Howell water works bill Is barred by th constltuton from th emoluments of th talared position of water com missioner, by the clause prohibiting any member of the legislature accepting any Civil appointment from th governor. But the place is not filled by th appointment of the governor. The man who framed the bill was careful to see to that. rberuary IS, 1903. Til concensus of opinion among all class of cttlsens and taxpayer! is in favor of th municipal ownership ot th water works. We doubt vry much, how. ever, whether any considerable number of taxpayers' would favor' th immediate purchase of th water Works unless they can be acquired at a reasonable price. Under th contract mad with th water company when its franchise was granted th city of Omaha has th right to pur- chat the water work at an appraised value to be fixed by three engineers, one of these to be named th th city, one by th water company, and th third to be chosen by th two. If th appraise. ment 1 mad by these arbitrators, the city is to pay only for the tangible prop erty of th company without making any allowance for the unexpired franchise. An appraisement under thes conditions can. however, only be mad on or after September 4, 1303. Under th existing charter the elty ot Omaha ts empowered to take the water works by condemnaton under th light of eminent domain. In taking th works by eminent domain proceedings the city would have the right to appoint all th appraisers, but the valuation mad by the appraisers would Include not only th tangilble property but also the value of th unexpired franchls. Th problem whloh now confronts th city is whether it shall avail itself ot th privilege embodied in the purchase clause of It contract with th water company, namely, to take th work at the price fixed by th three appraisers, or whether it shall proceed under th right of em- Inent domain. The ordinance drawn In response to th resolution of Councilman Hascall In conformity with th Howell. Gilbert water works bill contemplate th purchase of th works under th three appraisers olaus of th contract which he expects will be made mors lu This method of acquiring the work is cratlv in the near by and by.

While th city and water company each have one repre sentative on th appraisement board, th Chances are ' 100 to ' one that the water company will control th third man. In ether words, the water company will be able to place It Awn value on th works. Attorneys who rank high at th bar contend that an acceptance of th pur chase privilege by the city bind the city to accept the valuation fixed upon the works by th arbitration board of two of th three arbitrators, even If th p praisement exceeds by 32,000,000 or 33,000,- th actual value of the works. To be ur, th city may refuse to ratify th puroas by voting flown the proposition to issue the requisite amount of bonds. In that eat the water company might Institute proceedings in the court and under Its contract secure a Judgment for th full valuatloa fixed by the appraisers. Condemnation proceeding under the right of eminent domain would not in volve th city In any such risk. In th first place, the city has a right to ap point all th appraisers,' and if the amount allowed for the works and th unexpired franchise Is excessive the city would have th right to reject, the ap praisement and have the property reap praised by a new set of appraiser. If th appraisement is satisfactory to th city and a sufficient amount of bonds is voted to cover th full valuation agreed upon by th appraiser th city" would have tha right to tak possession of the work by depositing th money In . tho court leaving th '.- water company the option to accept or appeal to th courts for a .final adjudication of tho compenta- tion to which it would be entitled In pay. ment for th property.
