The storms and tornadoes that
have boon dealing havoc and doath
In our cities and towns while track
ing across tho prairies grow o(ut of
an upheaval of tho dements duo to
unnatural atmospheric disturbances.
Tho storm that struck Soward and
vicinity is plainly of the same va
riety na the one that toro a path
through Omaha Easter Sunday, and
tho devastation and death, although
much loss In absolute figures, Is com
paratively an hoary proportioned to
tho population of tho storm district
To tho people of Soward and
roundabout stricken communities,
tho sympathy of Omaha goes out,
and is properly voiced in tho offer
of help sont by the Commercial club.
A word of reassuranco should bo
added for timid folks among us that
every cloud is not a tornado, and
that, taken altogether, there Is not
safer place to livo than right hero
In Nebraska.
Altogether Unduly Alarmed.
Our amlablo democratic contem
porary has struck another mare's
nost in a terrlblo conspiracy .to pre
vent Omaha from having puro elec
tions through some hocus-pocus of
the forthcoming home rule charter.
That shoot conjures up an Imaginary
fear that somo power lodged in the
mayor and council will bo oxorcisod
by them to perpetrate some awful
outrage on the voters. In one sen
tence it says:
The "World-Herald regard the mem
bers of the city council, for the most
part at least, as lntolllirant. broad-
minded men who- are anxious to make a
record that their constituents will ap
prove. But in tho very next broath it ac
cuses them of bolng untrustworthy
puppots of somo dishonest "ma
chine." The election commissioner
law, tho World-Herald asauros us,
is a general stato law, anyway, and
theroforo ouporjor or paramount to
anything that may be put In the
charter.
All this would be awfully distress
ing if its Insincerity wore not so
transparent If the election com
missioner law cannot bo touched by
tho charter makers any more than
tho daylight saloon law, the Albert
law, tho Sunday closing law, or any
thor state lay," thon why all this
racket? If, on tho other hand, tho
courts should hold that tho conduct
of city elections proporly comes
under the horrid rule amendment :o
the constitution, power must bo
lodged somewhere to provldo for
holding city elections and the neces
sary safeguard to Insure their
purity.
California Stands Pat.
In the controversy arising from
tho protest of Japan, and the Inter
vention of President Wilson and Sec
retary Bryan, on its alien land own
ership bill, California stands pat. Tho
long messago of Governor Johnsdn
In reply to! representations from
Washington offers a labored and de
tailed justification of California's!
action. It sots up tho claim that
California has n right to debar Jap
anese1 from securing tltlo to agricul
tural lands without violating any
trdaty, with tho subtlo suggestion of
tho right' to excludo tho Japanese
oven in violation of tho treaty.
The whole Incident has served only
to omphaslxe the fact that the alien
land ownership legislation proposed
In California, and other coast states,
is specifically and purposely directed
against Japanese subjects, although
couched In language purporting to bo
of general application without dis
crimination. It is not likely, in our opinion,
that tho action of California will pro
duce a rupture at this time. The
president can point to. his remon
strance as proof that tho government
Is not responsible. It cannot fall,
however, to arouse rosontment and
strain tho friendship of the two na
tions, and give Japan an excuse tor
treating Americans shabbily or disre
garding our wishes whenovor it may
be so disposed.
Last year the only way to. revise
tho tariff was schedule by schedule,
and that is the way the democrats
put up the bills that President Taft
vetoed. Now, however, that they
have a democratic president, sched
ule by schedule revision has been
discarded to return to tho omnibus
scheme of tying everything together.
Just another Illustration of tbb dif
ference betwoon before and after.
Ono of tho arguments advanced by
our suffrage advocatea Is that giv
ing votes to Women will reduce tho
'proportion and Influonce of foreign
horn voters Because our immigrants
ars predominantly men. If that is
a good argument, its logic would be
to reserve tho suffrage for native
bom only irrespective of sex, but
we are loath to believe tho women
would endorso such a proposal.

Ilenuty Is na Beauty Doe.
OMAHA, May 15.-To the Editor of The
Bee) Since 1 have been a resident ot
Omaha, covering a period of almost ten
years, I have been a reader of The Bee.
I have learned to look on It as the cham
pion of every good cause or person when
a chsmplon Is needed, and that 1 why I
ask space to defend these noble teachers
In our city who were Insulted by those
of whom we would never expect It In
the article under the heading "Onl
Those with Good Look Wanted as
Omaha Teachers." Now I am not what
such men would possibly call a "cranky
old mold." I have never taught In
Omaha or educated any children here,
but am the mother of threo children, ixf
possibly I know a Ilttlo about teacher.
I am glad to say that It has been a priv
ilege and pleasure, too, to become ac
quainted with several of our most ex
cellent teachers of Omaha. Some oi
them have been beautiful In face and
form, and all beautiful and noble in
character. Have we not all In our llve&
met people who did not at first seem
attractive, but on becoming acquainted
with them they looked so truly beautiful
to us that wo wondered why we did not
recognize these charms at once.
We read In the Bible, "Man looketh on
the outward appearance, but God looketh
on the heart." Can It be that "his
majesty," the beautiful president of the
Board of Education, the "pretty high
school professor, together with their as
sociates, have attained such a decree of
Godliness that they can look on the
neart of the applicant and know that
they meet the requirements of this high
and mighty Bord of Education? Omahn.

after years of patient toll and earnest
devotion in their work, have reason to
be thankful too that they have. In the
eyea of the present Board of Education,

this fact they have decided to retain
them Instead of "firing them."
I have never consulted any of these
'ugly old maids" hk to hv
such, but possibly many of them are like

red hair nid to him, "You must have
been away from home when they passed

CITIZENS OF BEEMBRv
Senator Cord en I on Consolidation.
MCOOK Neb., May li To the Editor
? The Bee: It hai been charged by
those who favor consolidation of the
StaJo university on the farm that Lln-
coin opposed this move from purely
selfish motives that Llnooln cared noth
ing for the university except for what
It U worth to Its citizens In dollar add
cents, and that the attitude of Llnooln
business Interest to the university waa
that It Is an institution maintained at
state expense for Lincoln's benefit De
nied a frequently as made, confirmation
of these charges is found In an article
that appeared In an afternoon paper pub
lished In Lincoln on May 9, and In A
morning paper of the following day. The
article la question appeared under the
caption, "Business Men Don't Like Re
moval Mixed with Booze Fight." The
article went on to say that the question
"was ono carefully fought shy of In ths
recent municipal campaign; that a "par
tial attempt" made "to get expressions
of sentiment from th people1 of the State
in regard to the question met
considerable opposition on the part of
several of the more conservative business
men of the city;" and that "the attitude
ot Lincoln business men has always been
against removal to the state farm, a
such a move. It waa thought would In
jure business of the present downtown
store,"
Lincoln Is to be congratulated on hav
ing a newspaper honest enough to make
such a confession, tor what better evi
dence than this la needed that the
proximity of the saloon to the university
la' not considered, by those who are best
Informed, a an argument In favor of
campus extension, and that Lincoln's In
terest 1 essentially mercenary?
Th article Is a Virtual admission that
an effort la being made on the part of
Llnooln business Interest to conceal from
the -voter of the state the real condition
of affair surrounding the nnrreralty for
fear of the effect such knowledge will
have on th result of the election to de
termine the future policy of the state In
regard to Its greatest Institution of learn

pool room and the cigar storo have upon
the young me'n coming to the capital city
from all corners of the etate for an edu
cation. The "attitude" of Lincoln's business
men toward the liquor question was dis
closed by the lot election. If Lincoln
w.tnts the saloon, that is her pri liege,
but she should not against the protests
of the people of Nebraska, Insist that
the allurement of Its resorts shall be
flung In the faces of the boys and girls
wlto attend a state sehool. If she refuses
to remove the temptations from the way
of our young people, then nothing re
mains for the people of tho state but
to remove the young people from an en
vironment that is degrading.
The people of Nebraska havo a right
to know how the university Is situated,
so they may arrive at an Intelligent de
termination of whether Its location Is
suitable. It Is Impossible to understand
how any business man of Lincoln can
reconcile it to his conscience to bo a
rarty to such n fraud as It Is apparent
from this article Lincoln Is attempting to
perpetuate upon the people of this state.
It Is monstrous that tho commercial In
stinct can be brought' to the point of
Justifying the exploitation of men, as the
business Interests ot Lincoln confessedly
desire to exploit the student body of the
State university. The astounding feature
of It all Is the frank brutatity with which
Lincoln seems to glory In nor Iniquity.

And sun and rain, and dwell a whilo

There are calm spirits In the trees and
