Federal or State Control.
The country Is justified In assum
ing from President Wilson's Inaugu
ral utterances that ho means to pro
mote development and conservation
of our natural resources along ag
gressive lines. He could not do less
and live up to tho platform pledges
of his party In tho campaign last
year. Tho presldont deplores our
"Inexcusable waste" and "shamefully
prodlgnl" habits with reference to
our resources, tho human cost of
which ho implores the nation now to
stop and count. But the Question
propounds Itself, what will bo the
tendency of tho president as between
federal and state jurisdiction? Will
he yield to a disposition of demo
crats In congress to divert a largo
measure of control to tho state?, or
will he favor tho more practical policy
of national control of national re
sources? Doth his Inaugural ad
dress and the platform aro silent on
this point. The inference most natu
ral from both is that federal author
ity will be paramount, with perhapo
just a flavor of tho old state's rights
idea. The country has come to view
conservation as a federal question
and, while duo rights of states must
bo recognized, It seems hardly prob
nblo that federal control will not be
come the policy of tho new adminis
tration. Commisiion Plan in Lincoln.
Having elected to come under tho
commission plan of city govornmont,
Lincoln is sooti to choose tho officers
who sro to Inaugurate tho new de
parture for tho city second In sizo In
the state.
As applied to Lincoln, tho commis
sion placo provides for ftvo elective
commissioners, or councilmon, who
aro to recelvo $2,00t a year, and are
to conduct all the affairs of tho city
without any exceptions, and nlmoBt
without limitations. One of tho
$2,000 commissioners will be good
enough in Lincoln to 'run tho "water
department along with several other
branches of the public sorvico, and
In thl Lincoln will havo tho advan
tago'of escaping conflicts and clashes
botweon Independent municipal
authorities, and avoid costly duplica
tions of work.
Under tho commission plan, too,
Lincoln will for the first time era-
ploy the so-called nonpartisan ballot
In a municipal election. It will be
Interesting to soe whether the experi
ence there, as hore, produces a con
test merely between groups of candi
dates self-linked togethor across
party linos, and divided purely on
local Issues.
In an effort to arouse' public In
terest In the Impending change, tho
Lincoln Journal bits the nail on tho
hoadwhen It says;
It la now admitted that there it uoth
1ns miraculous about this system, and
that It la Juat aa Important to have good
man In the offices as It Is under th old
form of municipal Kuyernment.
Hearst and Snlzer.
Mr. Hearst Is pounding away In
his newspapers at Governor Suiter as
vigorously as If he had always op
posed him. Ho has recently excorl
ated htm editorially under tho blaok
type caption, "Sulzer Has Put tho
Job Through for Tammany and Wall
Street," with this declaration In the
course of his fulralnatlont '
Governor Sulier's pretense of lndt
pendence of the Tammany alliance with
big thieves and little thieves was dissi
pated at the first hint from Fourteenth
street.
During the campaign for tho nom
ination and eloctton Bulzer was
adopted aB Hearst's apodal candldato
and praised as the ono patriot quail
fled by experience, association and
Aspiration for governor of tho Em
ptre state. His election was hailed as
a Hearst triumph nnd was undoubt
edly due In some measure to Hearst
Influence. Dut now the tables aro
turned and Bulzer 1s donounced as
the pliant tool of Tammany, and other
evil Influences.
The Dodge-Hltchcock-Howoll Der

Seeing Omaha
Beatrice Bun: Omaha will have a
spasm of Investigation and a few fire
escapes will bo put up, and possibly
somebody will pass some fine resolu
tions. Nebraska City Press: Omaha has had
a lesson and is now willing to do Its
Investigating. For yeara It has been a
notorious fact known by nearly all strang
ers with Its gates, that Omaha hotel
facilities are fifty years behind the times.
Albion Argus: A great deal Is being
said about the small wages girls are
paid. While they aro asking for higher
wages and scrambling and crowding each
other for places In stores n,nd other public
places, free, room and Board and light
work wait them In homes of people who
find It Impossible to find compctont and
willing help to do housework. It Is no
trouble for a girl to get 15 a week In
Omaha with room, board and extras
thrown In, two afternoons and all even
ings out,' and only part of the work to
do, but the glrln don't want to do the
work that by heritage nnd tradition they
should do and could do safely and profit
ably, both from financial and propriety
reasons.
Ellgln Jlevlcw: The fire ought to be
an Incentive for hotel keepers to tako
every precaution for the safety of their
guests. The Omaha. Bee has detailed a
special reporter to visit all of the Omaha
hotels and each evening prints ti couple
of columns about the hotels und tells of
the conditions as they exist. By reading
these descriptions It Is seen that Omaha
has very few hotels that are fireproof
and still fewer are provided with ade
tiate fire escapes. The Bee Is doing a
great service in showing up tho con
ditions, and should result in a great
amount of good, .
Pender Times: The Omaha Bee is play
ing peanut politics when It continually
charges up every Uttlo eat of the Ne
braska houso of representatives (It
doesn't like), to democratic inefficiency.
The legislature is getting' along nicely; Is
passing some good measures and will
probably enact n law or two that it
shoudn't have, but this thing of brow
beating legislatures is getting chesnutty
and makes Intelligent people weary.
Fremont Tribune: It has been discov
ered that tho Omaha Water board bought
several thousand dollars'' worth of me
ters at a secret session. Doubless an
other rebate proposition. The question is,
who gets It?
Bridgeport News-Blade: The Omaha,
Bee Tuesday had a cartoon showing a
company of suffragettes marching to the
music of fife and drums; but the women
were all standing on their heads. And
the editor of The Bee Is a married man,
too.

OMAHA, March 10. To the Kdltor ot
The Bee: I am addressing this letter to
all honorable legislators. The 10th ot
February, 1913. I received a monthly
water bill from December 10, 1912 til.
January 11, 1913. According to tho meter
100 cublo feet wnu consumed, tho mini
mum tax Is TO cents per month. Jt Is
visible I was forced to pay &0 cents per
100 cubic feet or 21 cents moro for noth
ing. March 8. 1913, I received a water
bill, from Jonuary 11, till February, ttlj
tho water bill states that 300 cubic feet
of water was consumed. I read tho water
meter every week. February 15 I read tiio
water meter, 200 'feet of water was con
sumed, worth 53 cents. They demand
now 79 cents. This makes 26 cents to piy
for nothing 36 and 24 cenus I am skinned
of BO cents for nothing.
The present water board Is a pestilence;
It will drivo the small consumers to re
bellion. We havo a republic, but this
Water board Is a disgrace to our repub
lican system. The Wuter board charter
has no room In a sensible republic. The
dcspotlo Water board drives tho Inhab
itants from Nebraska.
To improve the bad condition the city
government must havo the supervision
of everything thnt belongs to the city;
henco the Water board must bo abolished.
It wns an unpardonable idiocy to estao
llKh a separate Water board Independent
of tho city government. We have home
rulo. Every honest and intelligent legis
lator In Lincoln without question will
support horn rule Intact.
The legislature may enact a law that
the Omaha Water board haa no right to
enact, a new regulation without consent
of tho city council. The above sontl
mcnts aro Indorsed by scores of consum
ers of water. M. TBL.T8HIK.

Home Utile In Elections, Too.
OMAHA, March 10. To the Editor nf
The Bee: I notice that there Is pending
before the houso tho election commis
sioner bill for Douglas county, and that
It puts tho appointing of the commW
sloner In the hands of the governor.
This bill should be amended bo that the
commissioner will be elected at the next
general election, allowing the governor
the appointing until that time.
It seems to me that If wo are going- to
have a pure election, that If the election
commissioner cannot come under the
some law, as all other elective offices,
than what is tho good of this office.
We believe In home rule. That has been
the cry for a long time. The laws should
be amended to that effect.

Hard Coal Cinch
St. Louis Republic: The profligacy of
tho coal trust in giving Its laborers
$1,000,000 out of 13,45O,0O0 taken from the
public on their account is excused by the
fact that tho trust had to.do it.
Indianapolis -News: When the coal men
can Increase their prices 26 cents a ton
as a result of increasing the pay of the
miners 8 or 10 cents a ton, the ultimate
furnace feeders begin to understand why
they had to spend their next summer's
vacation rconey for their last winter's
coal.
Pittsburgh Dlspotch: The anthracite
coal "gentlemen's agreement" Justified Us
advance in the prices on the ground of
the Increase in wages. Tho. Department
of Commerce, however, shows that of
'tho 113,400.000 advance In prices last year,
M000,000 was due to Increased wages and
$9,4110,000 was tacked on because the com
panies could do It. Therein do we get
a line on the whyness of tho high coat
of living.
Boston Transcript: The report ot the
United States Bureau of Labor, that
since the anthracite coal strike last
spring the companies have paid $4,000,000
more in wages and taken J13.450.000 more
from the publto is rather startling. It
shows that In nil strikes that affect the
necesarles of life it Is the public tltxt
pays, though not In all Instances ure
these extra burdens Imposed to such an
extent nt the source of supply.
New York Tribune: This use of a strike
as an excuse to mulct tho coal buyer
was In accordance with the custom o
coal operators. After the Btrikcs of 190
And 1902. they raised wages 32 cents a
ton an'd prices to the public Jl a ton.
The Tribune last spring estimated their
profit from that transaction at more than
J300.O00.0OO in a decade. When there Is
so much money as that in strikes will
the anthracite coal Industry ever be free
from them?
