According to the court ruling, something Jike $1,000 of water fund Viosey ha been Illegally diverted for Juakets for Water board members Mi employef. Why this favoritism oa the part of tho reformers who Dreamt tnose suits to recover the oot? Abuse of the Recall. The dnnger of the recall Is Its mis use or personal, vindictive or frv olous objects frustratinR Its real pur poso to nfford simply a mechanism for popular control of public off! cors. The form of the recall under our prosont city charter facilitates this abuso, for instead of providing for submission of the question whether an offlcor has forfeited his position or outlived his usefulness, It requires some other candidate to bo put up for his place, making it necessarily a personal contest Tho proposed new homo rule char ter for Omaha would chango all this, for while retaining" tho recall it alms to bring it back to use for a purely public purpoffo. Under tho homo rule charter, as drafted, resort to tho re call would Invite tho voters to record themselves on Just ono point, Shall, or shall not, tho person named bo re moved from office? A majority vote to romovo would then create a va cancy to bo filled as other vacancies In offlco are filled. It eeoms to us that tho sooner we substitute tho ne plan of recall for the present plan, tho temptation to abuso It will be reduced, and the bet ter it will be. More Disfranchisement. The noxt stop in the program of disfranchisement inaugurated under our how election commission law, so we aro told, Is to deny tho ballot to foreign-born citizens who have beon vottng on thoir first papors when they fall to perfect thoir naturallsav tlon. If this ruling is adhered to and sustained as good law, persona vested with the suffrage under our state constitution, and exercising It freely for seven years, will be de prived of thoir right to vote Irrospoc-1 tlve of any reason or excuso for not taking out thoir second papors. Yot Is this theory tonacle at all? Has congress power by any law to tako away from citizens of Nebraska rights enjoyed under tho constitution of this state? Suffrage auallflea- tlons in Nebraska aro doflnod in the constitution, which extondslthe right to vote, after six months' residence, to "persons of foreign birth who shall havo declared their intention to became citizens conformably to the Taws of tho United States on the subject of naturalization at least thirty daya prior to an election." It hoB boon repeatedly held that there Is a citizenship of tho state separate and distinct from citizenship of the United feHatee, Our constitution does not say that this citizenship shall be forfeits; by failure to complete the naturalisation, although it enumer ate other cause which will work forfettMr of tha franchise, . It stands to reason that if a ser ies of foreign Wrth by rettflaf here six! niosths and declaring hia laten tly to become aaturallzod qualities as a voter he is no lees qualified to vote after tho lapse of tieven years, But, of course, If any 6ae Is merely looking for a loophole under a "lib eral construction" of tho law to slam the door In tho faces of foreign born citizens, this situation furnishes tho opportunity. Helping the Farm Womea, The announcement of the receipt by the Department of Agriculture of many lettera from farm women ask ing for goveraraeutal asMstaaco such as is rendered tha country man, af fords some ground for hoping that tha M-eoeat administration may reaaaad ta this call, The whole coua try life prejact lato which President Roosevelt threw so much energy and seal came to a disappointing end and largely for the reason, so doubt, that Itwaa "ahead of its tlaae;" that is It failed to elicit the cordial co operation, et those It was meant to aid. Nevertheless much good has corao and will coma, from the persistent paving of tho way for a continuation of the work, Instead of being a re flection on the backwardness ot the American farming community such actlvo solicitude by tho govern ment is the best evidence , of the spirit of progress inviting co-opera tion. It must be remomberod, though, that nolther the men nor women of the farm are subjects ot federal charity, lacking the comforts of Ufa. Indeed, the comforts of life are rather well distributed among the farmora today. But that is not so much tho point ot the government's plan, which Is really to help the country get onto a basis of organized In dustry wheVo it may bo better fitted for competition with the highly organlzod urban community. With experts to Instruct both the men and the women in the minutla ot thta plan, the government ought to be ot great help and ought to bo used both by the moa and women of the farm. Mexico has Just celebrated its In dependence day, which corresponds to our Fourth of July. Which re minds us that our present secretary ot state once went up and down the Jand proclaiming that if William McKlnley were elected president we would havo no more Fourth ot July celebrations. The sum and substance of Sir Oliver Lodge's prolonged and pro found deliberations on the question of continuity Is.

I6.-T0 the Editor of The Bee: Since Freldmann's cure for tuberculosis came about I have heard many expressions from various per sons, thinking that a reliable' cure for this disease would be a marvelous thing for mankind. If so, why does not some man In congress arise and offer the suggestion that congress offer ,000,000 dollars for a aafe and reliable cure for tha disease? This would be the most sensible method of procedure, if this were offered for a remedy that would cure & per cent of the cases where the disease Is lh the first stage and where deformity of the organ affected does not exist, wo might have a sare and reliable cure within five years.

It means a rriethod of unlocking the secret or hiding places of the mind and revealing 10 me pnyaician he hidden secret ot being, thought ajnd action, it is a method of dissecting the mind, and alt mental operations. Whether it h in waking state 6r sleeping, or In diseases of tho nervou system, as in dream, hysteria, Insanity, etc. Dr. Slgmund Freud of Vienna I the originator of this ineinoa. Dr. Breuer, Dr. Jun. Dr. Brill others have materially aided In develop ing this new plan of searching- th mantm operations of a patient It methods are "impie ana easily understood. One hun- ureo. or more words, carefully selected and properly grouped, are takan basis from which to work. A wdrd Is pronounced to the patient and he Is asked to give an associative word quickly, It being the first word that comes to him He, If normal, will anpwer In three o ond or less, If fojrly bright Intellectually. uive mm the word "stork" and he will probably answer "baby." aive him the word "marriage" and he mav "divorce." It mut be an associate word. it ne hesitates and does not answer fo five, ten or more seconds, He Is conceal ing something hs did riot wish to reveal. When the full list of words has been gone through and the tlm of each re spcmse noted be has revealed many thing and concealed some. Go through tbe list again and see It he makes the same answers. Then have him explain a you go alorig how he happened to-vary in his answer and tell what circumstances id him to think and answer a ha did In any case. The Study of the patient's demeanor during tha tests is Important He will reveal himself without knowing that he bas4done so. We never losef neglect or rorget things we value highly.
