Cot this clearly In mind, it is fce-spllttlng tho doctors complain of, not fee-shaving. Proper training at tho proper period of a child's life beats all the subsequent charity or pbllanthrophy ft mile. Schiller may havo been correct when he aald, "Wine tolls nothing," but It has Its powers of loquacity, just tho same. Anyway, tho campaign for a tlno arts homo has given tho women some valuable lessons in the flno art of money-raising. Physical valuations of public sorvlco utili ties are not always what thoy seom. Recall that water works appraisement? Sort of a tribute to Governor Metcalfe's sleuthing abilities In that Indictment of tho former Panama commissary head. In the voting contest for the name of the new consolidated Chicago IUcord-HeralrMntor- Ocean, put us down for The Herald. Remember that Mr, Mellen got some of his early training right hore In Nebraska In the good old days of undisputed railroad rule. Some conscienceless wretch has stolen Nick Longworth's violin, but he knew enough not to grab anything belonging to Nick's wife's father.

M he had not so positively declared against a second term candidacy he would feel milch more comfortable The doctors aro still denouncing foe-spllt-tlng and talking about expelling those who in dulge in it from their medical Boclety.

Chicago might find fertile soil if transplanted to Council Bluffs, whero receipts of domocratlo "workers" who voted right cash In at fl per punch hole. Political plums are steadily dropping off the trea In Iowa, South Dakota, Wyoming and knn ,. but mighty Ivs and far between In Ne brasfca. If this keeps up much longer it will be an involuntary hunger strike. Competition for places on the so-called "nonpartisan" ballot does no seem to bo as keen as for party nominations. Perhaps the explanation Ilea In the fact that the "non partisan" office-seeker is left to manage and finance hla own campaign. If the county treasurer could find some legal technicality by which he could pocket all tho Interest paid on deposits of public money, his Job might become almost aa tempting as that of aherlff after the latter succeed, in get ting way with that $50,000 Jall-feodlng graft.

" ' ' In response to t elect am from Marvin Hughltt. general manager or the Northwestern and president of th Minneapolis i- Omaha. John D. Howe went o SU Paul, where he waa appointed general solicitor for the latter raj I road. In thla position Mr. Howe succeeds lion. John C. Spooner. A girl who can apeak German la wanted at 'Mrs. M Coop's restaurant, SIS South Twelfth straet President and Commerce Commission. Persistant ro ports that the demand of the eastern railroads for a 5 per cent Increase in freight rates was looked upon with favor ftt the White House drew forth not long ago an au thoritative statement to the effect that the pres ident bad no opinion to express on this subject, and that ho regarded decisions of tho Inter- uto commerce commission as In the naturo of judicial oociBions, wnicn no couia not wun pro priety attempt to Influence. For tho president to side with tho railroads regardless of their shewing would, of course, have been entirely uncalled for. Rut should the Interstate Cotnm.rce commission render what strikes the public as a biased or projudlced verdict, the president could hardly escape shar ing tho responsibility. Even some of tho presi dent's most partisan supporters see this wlt ness the rernnrk of tho Lincoln Star that "tho fart that President Wilson has had the appoint ment of three members of tho commission Is the fact that will weigh." The Star thus intimates j that the president will bo charged with the credit or discredit that attaches to whatever the commission does, particularly If its action is de termined, as it must be, by his appointees. The recollection that the last nomination to tho In terstate Commerce commission was opposed in the sonato because of a rocord'favorlng the rail roads in matters of capitalization, and was con firmed only In response to personal plcaa from the White House, accentuates this condition, and, although exciting no controversy now,' will not eBcapo attention later. Penalties for Fee-Splitting. As ap actlvo factor In exposing the abuses of fce-spllttlng by medical practitioners, The hoc naturally commends the action of the Ne braska State Medical association to abolish tho system In this state. Let us hope the associa tion will Impartially and vigorously follow up Its resolution and enforce Its rules without fear or favor until the fee-spllttera, If not restrained from an ethical senso, bo afraid for other reas ons to barter patients agafnst the best divvy ob tainable. Our Lincoln staff correspondent says: "The majority of tho society members admitted the practice wan prevalent and deplorod its exist ence," Tho Bee has frequently pointed out it prevalence,, directing attention to the monaco of its abuses, and if now Its efforts and Influ ence have helped to crystallise sentiment, It will fool that It has done something worth while. Tho doctors, on the other hand, In adopting this resolution, havo made only a Btart for the restoration of confidence In their pro fession. They, themelves, would, wo think, be the last to deny that public confidence has been shaken because of this and other more crooked practices In which some have engaged. Expulsion for two years Is the penalty pre scribed tor the first offense and permanent ex pulsion for tho second. A few object le-sson examples will do the Job. Mix-up' Between Folk and MoXeynold; Attorney General McReynolds sava Mr. Mel len shall not go upon the wltnoBB stand In tho New Haven hearing. Joseph W. Folk says he shall, and he does. Tho attorney general' Is tho official, head of the Department of Justice, Mr. Folk only special counsel for. tho, Interstato Commerce commission. Doth are appointed by tho president. When Mr. McReynolds de murred to the plan of examining Mr, Mellon, Mr, Folk callod in portion on the attorney gen pral. He left the latter'a office soon after en tering It.. Ills appearance and mood betrayed his feelings. Ho said, when askod, that he left because Mr. McReynolds' actions -Were such as to make It Uncomfortable to remain. Tho examination proceeds according to the Folk plan and precisely contrary to tho Mc Reynolda plan, Now the question agitating tho nttorney general's mind is doubtless this: "la It mo or Flannogan, the boarder?" Whp shall answer, but tha president? And If bo, will his mind rovert to the little episode la California early In his administration when the same Mc Reynolds advised him similarly to lay-off the prosecution of a&me very rich and very promi nent malefactorB? Is there anything in the final records of tho Western Fuel company case to prejudice the proeldent In favor of-his attor ney general at this time? it begins to look as If there might be Just a speck or two blood on the moon that beams down upon the official family at Washington. The, prosldent must bo watohfully waiting de lolopments with uncommon' Interest. Senatorial Courtesy. Among othor choice expressions, "asslnlne." "falsifier," "strained effort to get an appropria tion," "brains at tho base of his tongue Instead of his head," In debate on the floor of the sen ate remind us that though "the old order changeth," thpre Is enough of It left In the up per branch of congress to preserve the distinc tion between entente cordlale and senatorial courtesy. Senatorial courtesy is a cloak that covers a multitude of forensic sins. , It acts as a gal vanized armour of Impervious resistance, when it cornea to Injury from tho fiercest ehafts of passion. If the Tlllmana and McLaurlna can engage In their fisticuffs, surely the oratorical champions can hold their little carnivals of name-calling without any violence to this tradi tional code of ethics. While It Is disappointing for brethren not to dwell together In unity, there seems to be some thing exceptionally entertaining just now in these little tete-a-totes. They heln break th ! mnoutony of dull harmony that hangs like a pall over tho deliberations of the present demo. cratlc congress. The people must hav some thing tor their money and Mr. Dryan refuses to do anything out of the ordinary In between chautaqua seasons. Now, if instead of Blmply talking about It these Improvement clubs would pull off dally dandelion exterminating bees, they might ex hibit e model patch of lawn In each section of the city for the neighborhood to copy after. No charge for this suggestion. Funerals of our war heroes killed at Vera Crug occasioned disorderly crowding and near panics In several cities. Wonder what sig nificance we would have attached to similar demonstration s made by the Mexicans over their war victims. In Other Lands Another ntlllon-Doltar Country. Great Britain budget for the coming fiscal year promises to challenge the claim of tho United States to first placo aa a "billion-dollar country." The va rious national and old age pension plan Introduced by the eminent upllfter of the plain people, Chan cellor IJoyd-Ocorge, supplementing a steadily swell ing naval establishment, results in a deficit of nearly $17,000,009, so that new taxes must be levied to provide- a total of 1.003,i76,000 for the budget year. In submitting hl estimates to Parliament the chan cellor announced that tha additional revenue "wilt bo drawn from Increased Income taxes and Increased death dutle two sources which strike the well-to-do In a tender spot. On every Incomo nxcecdlng 3,000 a year the rata of Incitaae ranges from ltt pence to 3 pence In the pound sterling, with a supertax of 12 per cent on Incomes exceeding Ili.OO) a year. Death duties are to he advanced from 13 to M per cent, ft figure calculated to prolong the grief of helrs-at-law i far beyond the date of the funeral. In this, aa In preceding budgets, the ministry keeps atcadlly In view an Improved standard of health, comfort and education of the working classts, the cost of which must bo met by the rich. Socialist Gnlns In Fmncr, The chief feature of last Sunday's .rebatlotlng for member of the French Chamber of Deputies who did not receive a majority at the first balloting' on April 25 Is a gain of thirty-eight seats by the so cialists, giving them 101 seats In the new cham ber, as ftgajnst sixty-eight in (he old. The Catllaux radicals gained slightly, having won a total of 161 seats, as compared with ISC In tho old chamber. The several republican groups Identified aa Brlahdlsta lost thlrty-four seats, their strength falling: from 2M to 2C A fact of somo significance Is that while tha socialists lost ground In Paris, where the party was supposed to be uncommonly strong, they overcame tho loss by gains In the country. The gain Is ac counted for, to some extent, by royalist support of socialism, prompted by the conviction that the quickest way of discrediting republicanism Is to drlvo It to socialism. Tito cnanges in tne complexion oi the chamber, however, are not sufficient to alter the policy of the ministry with respect to the three,-ear army aervlco measure, which the adclallata strenu ously fought. Balkan War Brntnlltlea. The Carnegie International commission which In vestigated the ravages of war In the Balkans finds that there Is no visible difference between Christian J and Moslem methods of slaughtering each other. The report follows the lines Indicated by advanced sum maries published last winter. No attempt has been made either to gloss over the Macedonian horrors or to shook the world with details. Dreadful things were done, and It Is useless to try to apportion the blame. As the commission sal's, the preaont genera tion In tha Balkans grew up under Turkish rule, accustomed to Turkish modes of warfare. If In bit terness they outdid the Turk It was because under the phlegmatic and cynical Turkish rule a savac and secret guerrilla warfare had long- been waged between the hostile nationalities and Christian fac Hons. It waa found that the crimes perpetrated by Chrlrtlans upon Moslem In Macedonia In many In stances surpassed the atrocities of the Turks, nor can any of the warring nations ue ocquittca ot par barltlea. In regard to the present outlook for peace the commission la deeply pessimistic, so great has been the demoralisation wr6ught.br this hideous war fare. Dublin Calls Yankee Doctor. In anticipation of the early coming of an Irish Parliament at Dublin, the Irish capltat sends & hurry call to Prof. John Nblen Of Cambrldget Mass., a, spe cialist In city planning, to come over and assist a local commission in rejuvenating tha city. The main object in view is better housing1 conditions, and Dub lin Is sorely In need of an .uplift of that kind. The prospectus of the commission calling , for competitive plana for the "Oreater DUMin" contemplates xnern elusion of not only the adjacent .townships of. Fern brokn and Itathmlnes. but also from Ilowth to Kings town and Dalkey, inclusive, and from Olasnevln and Ashtown to Dundrum. The prospectus estimates that 14,000 dwellings should be provided for In the suggested plans, and that the Utilisation of tha present teno menta should not be overlooked. In the rebuilt quar ters of the town provision should not be made for hOuaing more than 100 persons, to an acre, It says, and not more than sixty to the aero in the suburbs. Attention la also called to the, standard normally taken In American cities which allow one acre for every ten for park and playground purposes.

These twelve spent two weeks preparing for the final contest, when boforo twelve teachers they spoke In tho high school auditorium.

It waa my raro pleasure to listen to cx-Mlnlster Graves' address on Sweden and the 8wedes at the Noonday club last iucsoay. The fine delineation of Swedish circumstances appealed to us Who havo some acquaintance with this subject. Per sonally my Interest is that of a loyal American, born In our glorious America, but of parentage from' that charming Land of the Midnight Sun, tho country of an unusuany far advanced culture. We who aro born in this land of opulence have great difficulty In divorcing tho money standard estimate of countrlea and peoples. As travelers our opinions of tho nner lives ot European nations nil too frequently squints. We lack as a rule pene trative insight Into the soul life ot tho nations abroad. Wo can Judge their com merce, their politics, their aoclotv func tions, but our vision Into the interior of tne character and soul too commonly amacas ot tne dilettante. Mr. Q raves' remarks on tho character of 'the Swedish peopia were amiable end just Imagino our surprise when the reported the address o? the ' gentleman's Biueu wiie, nonor guest oft the Woman's ciud. iet mo bo chlvalrotis enough to her. a woman, and unchlvalrous to the news papers and say, Was site not mlr ported? It is hardly possible that any one with requisite equipment of mind and culture. Judgment and power of deep analysis, should rnake'auch a prepostrous statement: "In Sweden a woman Is noth Ing more than a chattel." If It' were so, oh, what mighty children those; "chattel" mothers acem to be able to bring forth and rear! How thoy know to keep a home together, to bo maritally taitnsui, to produce a family life so sunny and peaceful that tho fraxsled. neurotic. dtvorced-cureod, agitated home life of our American world by comparison seems llko tho menace of impending disaster. ino weoJn women of Sweden have known the art of living ("Lebekunst" the Germans call It). Wherever tho blastlmr Jiiien Key spirit haa not penetrated and prostituted them they prevailingly reared goaiy and spiritually minded children, re varent toward holy matters-children with conscience, children with regard for tho aged and superiors, children with noble ueimnracnu uouiu -cnaitel" women achieve such results? Ah, ah, one'a pay. chology must bo woefully antique, one'a biological and historical conceptions most be crabbedly puritanic, to Imagino a fine people Ilka tho Swedish born and reared Of "chattel" women. But, It's tha same old story, again, and forever again: Our American eyo too often lacks penetration In Judging of the deepest traits ot foreign nations, the constitutive soul qualities, Moreover, to bo chivalrous to the end. I can hardly conceive that tho gentlemanly ax-mlnlster'a apparently high esteem of Swedes in Sweden should be so utterly at variance with his, according to report. to gifted wlfa.s notions. Just a word of analysis here; Women of America fal) to understand the women of Europe In essential points. Tho woman of America tends to wish complete II cense, freedom from restraint, especially from tho boring restraint of home duties. the birth and rearing ot children. The Swedish man doubtlessly falls in somo Of the external attentions to his wife. which aro tho specialty of tho American HA man. But I vow. that if It comes to fidelity, hats off to the Swedish manl If It cornea to keeping of the marriage vow, avoiding of divorce, hats off for the Swedish map! The Swedish woman haa by her deep spiritual Instruction and conscience-training In tho Word of God a profound respect for tho mar Royal . 0blr. do riage vow, wherever Ellen Key's Immoral doctrine haa not penetrated. Sho endures more, because that Is hurher than to get divorce. She is more patient, because that la more soul-ennobling than license She Is less noisy and talkative, because her souMlfe haa deeper depths ot spir ituality, duo to the Instruction in Chris tianity given In the public schools, the "public school of Sweden which." k-al.l the speaker at the Woman's club, "l realty the charity school." Another ut terly grotesque mtsreportlng. Messrs. Edi tors, bear with your correspondent's ruth less chivalry! "I, too, could name the weakness ot Sweden's women, though I refrain, eat my unforgettable sainted mother should from her helahja pierce my soul with the withering maternal glance of one of those marvelous "chattel" women who also hailed from tho Northland. Chattels," ah. till some truly accred ited ono substantlatea the report. I will nowise deny the gifted Mrs. Oravea the honorable privilege of believing her mis reported. And I know my friends the editors will be patient enough with roe iprirsta UNE meanwhile, even at the expense of en during the unchlvalrous charge against reportora.
