That electric light bill la being illuminated; also ventilated. For once the dope bUBlneas in Omaha lelng doped out right. la getting German sympathy for the Bel gians, "the Madame" la aurely an artful artlat.' What we would like to know, however,. la, if court reporter" transcripte are made free,' (will the money tbna saved go to the lawyer or to tbo clientT I Not the least of the Joys of legislative life is the task of booating salaries in city jobs. The lawmakers are not called upon, to dig up the money. . If that cattle Quarantine can only be made to etay over on the east side of the Missouri river, It will not interfere so seriously with the Omaha market. What about another peace prayer proclama tion from the prenidentl We had ' more than one Fpecialiy appointed peace prayer days during our civil war. The truth la, however, that up to date it ha, not been lack of legislation, but lack of moneyed men willing to Invest, that has kept back the development of Interurbans in Nebraska. ' So long as Mr. Carnegie neglects to provide the army of peace with attractive uniformn, steady pay and a pension eyutem, he cannot ex 3ect a land office runh at his rocrultlng stations. Our police couimisaloner is needleaaly severe on the man who walks the beat. If a patrolman ran not lift a peanut or roll a chestnut how cru he keep the munclea of his arms in fit condition? Making up the jury lists for a. whole year for Douglas county will not take a competent roan at most over three or four weeks. Let hl:a be paid liberally for the time he puts in, but not for the time he has nothing to do. An official statement showa sixty-six mer chant steamers flying foreign flags interned tu American porta by the war. Of this number fifty-five fly the German and eleven the Aus trian fla$. Their tonnage totals 618,708. The enforced idleness of thia huge fleet may explain why ocean freight rates are following wheat iuU the tloiiuS. ' , Quarantine Against Cattle PUfu. The prompt action of the authorities, in co operation with the management of the stock yards, in closing the Omaha market to cattle iron east of the Missouri river. Is well taken. It Is the only means to prevent the. foot 'and month disease from crossing the Missouri river and Infecting the great herds of the west, on which the country must depend for its meat sup plies. Serious loss has already been sustained by the eastern breeders of cattle, some especially valuable herds baring been wiped out as a result of the plague, but the damage so far wrought is nothing as compared to what might follow, were the dread disease to gain a foothold In the west ern cattle country. The rangesand feed lots of the west have always been zealously guarded against infection of -every kind, and millions have been spent to keep them free from disease. Vigilance In enforcing the present quarantine will prevent a tremendous disaster. 06080110; the Censor. John Bull is a phlegmatic old gentleman, but like everybody else, he gets a bit impatient under long continued stress of waiting for something to develop. Members of the House of Commons gave an exhibition of this uneasi ness when, In expressing a willingness to five the government a "blank check" for war et pensea, it was plainly suggested that the country would like to know a little more about how the war is progressing. Secrecy conceraing the operations of the government, and especially In war times. Is as Irksome in England as it Is in America, and is but little better borne. The autocracy of the military censorship is nowhere especially relished, but Is submitted to with more patience on the continent, because the people there have been trained to observance of the military rule that no questions may be asked of the army. The public everywhere baa been kept in the dark as to exact conditions on the firing line, as well as to details of life In the regions over which the wave of war has swept. Military necessity la responsible for this, and It is not at all likely that the protests voiced In the House of Commons will be potent to lift the veil of official obscurity that now hangs over the movements of the armies. In daya to come, historians and statistician may be permitted to dig up some of the details concerning the titanic struggles that now con cern so many millions, hut for the most part tha things the people would like to know will be safely burled In the archives of the nations Involved.' Extra Session of Congress Possible. The deadlock in the senate, with a continua tion of the filibuster against the administra tion's shipping bill, makes It possible that an extra session of congress wifi be called, If only to 'pass the big appropriation bills, which are now being held (back. Thla situation Is not especially encouraging to a country, which was beginning to cherish the hope that the con tinuous performance at Washington might end with the constitutional expiration of the present congress. . " The president's program docs not run si smoothly through the law-making machinery as It did. Two years of steady work under the "echoolmaster's" direction has apparently dis turbed the docility of congress, and the response to White House "suggestion" is no longer so ready" nor so spontaneous as It was In the hey day of democratic ascendancy. The democrats at present are not living up to their opportunity in their Insistence on the administration's ship ping bill. They have had some chance to be of real service to the commerce of the country, In a great emergency, and as usual have failed to realize it Refusal to permit amendment to the president's plan for the restoration of the Amer ican merchant marine bids fair to be fatal to the measure. ( This outcome Is not especially encouraging to the nation, which had hoped that some meas ure of relief might be given by the present con gress. The administration may take home the Waon, and the next congress, with its lessened democratic "majority, may be given an opportun ity to enact a law that will be useful and ef fective in the matter of encouraging American shipping. . It is hardly fair to measure the value . of legislative printing by the straight and curving lines of the dollar mark. Printing ia more than an art. It la "the art preservative of all arts." Mewed In the right light the printer man la both promoter and cubtodlan of the arta which Kive i j.;.ife.-nion to the soul. Aa such bla output makes for the higher life wherein man looms large above the dollar. "Do you get it?" .

In ttiiir.u-r, are buw making tnn at in t of tweiity niuute-s. Tho Political Caldron Advance-Advice vs. Post-Mortcm Complaint Member of the Douglas delegation at Lin coln are asking for advice from tbelr con stituents as to proposed charter amendments. which contemplate Increased taxation and other burdens upon property owners. Our solicitous law-makers are bound to be disappointed, because the'r constituents either no'. not know what they want, or will not come forward with their advice at the right time. This fact was plainly developed when the charter convention waa in session considering these very same iproposala and repeatedly Inviting and urging citizens, taxpayers and civic bodies to communicate their ideas. It we recall correctly, the wheel tax waa the only measure which evoked a manifestation of active Interest from' the business men, representatives of the retail era' association appearing to enter a vigorous protest agalnat it. The labor unions were in evi dence, the offlce-holdera were la evidence, the paving contractors were . in evidence, the franqhined corporations were in evidence, but the great body of home owners, taxpayers, shop keepers and unorganized wage-earners were al together indifferent until the constructive worn waa ended, and a false Usua waa raised. True, that ia all history now, but the same conditions of lethargy confront the charter makers today, only more so, because they are remotely secluded at Lincoln Instead of being on the ground and accessible in Omaha. Trlendly letters from President Wilson and Secretary Bryan are among the personal exhi bits filed by Mr. Vlck, the former Ean Douilngo attache, whom Minister Sullivan's frienda classi fies as "the head grunt of the Investigation." Minor federal officials are not the only victims of the halr-trigjier letter habit. Ml NKH'AL CAMPAIUX CALENDAR. March IS. Itte day for candidates to file. March 2.

Tha election commis sioner's office, even at this early date, la frequently being asked for these dates, which may be "pasted In your hat," or on the wall. In view of the approaching city primary. It may be of Interest to hark back three years go when Omaha waa In the throes of Its first commission form of government election. There were then elghty-elx candidates In the primary race. It was a merry fight. with every -candidate sure of landlnjr In the list of the high fourteen to make the final race. Many were were sorely disappointed and vowed they would never again submit themselves to a popular vote, but are finding It hard to live up to good resolutions.

Zlmman, Keep one eye on the doings of the Douglas dele gation at Lincoln as a hatchery of political ducklings. It is currently assumed that several candidates for the commlsslonerthlp jobs will be sprouted down there before the .session Is over In (act, that Is the cus tomary stunt. For example, when Senator Ed Howell served his first term In the legislature he manu factured a new charter for Omaha which he thought answered his own needs, and came back and ran for mayor on It and waa beat. He tried a second time later, and was beat again; so it is but natural to expect a third trial. Senator Bedford also ran badly in tha last city handicap race, and Is not known to take a rebuff easily without trying again. Senator. Saunders, too, has had a mayoralty been In his bonnet two or three times, which might easlly .be revived. The other two senators. Qulnby and Dodge, It may bo remarked, both live in Dundee and could gt in the game only by the annexation route. Then there are several ' on the house tsid. who might listen to the siren call, and, In a pinch, do a little calling on their own' account. Let It be remembered that the legislature ordinarily closes up shop just about tha first of April, making a time schedule that dovetails this year with the city primary In Omaha In a fashion that could not be built better, for statesmen out of a Job. Frank H. Howell and VT.-O. Shriver are being "mentioned" as possible candidates for the city com mission. In the case of Mr. Howell, his friends are doing the talking Just now. Mr. Shriver Is not quite so shy. He sdmits considering filing, but has not fully made up his mind. "What value attaches ta written expressions of "friends" as to the availability or chances of a'pros pective candidate?" The question was prompted by J. W. Metcalfe's plan of sending out letters in Inquiry to hundreds of voters to help him decide on his course. Of a group discussing at the city hall, one man salt the idea was fine In theory, but doubtful In actual practice. His contention waa that moat of those favorable to Mr. Metcalfe's candidacy would so ex press themselves, but that few not Inclined to the Metcalfe candidacy would say so. 'I think it ta a waste of postage and energy," re marked one of the group. "You mean misdirected energy," chimed In another. "Just buy a few chips in the -political game and alt In and take a change," was the expression of are- other who used. to. play pokef years ago. "Are you going to file?" Is the chronic question. Bashful Colonel Charley Fanning says he has been "urged" to get Into the marathon, but the colonel seems to hestltate. He tries to make out that he Is not so easily led astray by the political enchantreaM. The colonel baa beeu a hewer of wood and drawer of water tor years In the democratic ranks and Is wondering whether he has reached the age where a crown would ornament hla head.

Artols. mentions a list of subscriptions which shs has racrlved, saying that list In cludes the entry "Mr. Meyer of Iler at Co., 16." For your Information, I never signed any subscription list, but pur chased from the lady when she called at my office a day or two before tha lecture $S worth of tickets on the strength of the large space devoted to her coming In your paper, as well as In the othor Omaha dallies, illustrated with her pic ture, and stating the object of her lec ture as being the colonisation of Belgian refugees.. I told her she waa a good ad vertiser, and being an actress I con cluded that she would deliver an Interest ing lecture, worth listening to. but had no Idea what her lecture would be. Had I known what it was I should not have attended myself, and should not have Invited soma of my friends, to whom wss obliged to apologize afterwards. I was very much disappointed, and am satisfied In my own mind that It aa dona neither the Belgian cause, nor, for that matter.the German cauae any good. l feel that I have been "taken in," and my only consolation la that I had plenty of distinguished company In my misfor tune. ' - v I believe that newspapers before giving so much conspicuous space as they gave Mile. Artols should Investigate ao as not to mislead tha public I feel no 111 wlU towards tha lady, who Is not the only ona of her countrymen who blames -Eng land for not coming to their rescue In time; but her lecture was entirely unin teresting and altogether, too much 'of a joko to stir up ao much of a tempest In teapot. Her taking up a collection waa an imposition, and I urgently requested the guests I had with me not to respond.

SOUTH OMAHA, Feb. .-To tha Kdltor of The Bee: In time past when tbe con solidation of South Omaha with Omaha has been agitated the antlg have said, "Walt until a bUl is psssed that will en, able us to sea just what we are getting." They said w would get nothing by an nexing to Omaha unless some provision Wfasj made In advance. Now, when the Howell bill provide for even mor than we are entitled to, they make a great noise about forcible annexation. All who make so much noise about it ar opposed to the consolidation by any means, either forcible or by vote of the people. It la my opinion that If every person In South Omaha over 10 years of age was asked to point out the line on Twenty- fourth street between Omaha and South Omaha that not Z6 per cant of them could do it unless ahown where it la When the two cities ar so closely Interwoven and ar practically on In everything but name there la no reason why they should be separate any longer. Bom who fear their relatives may b pried loos from city offices ar squeal ing loudly and protest against the emer gency clause In the bill. If w are going to be annexed to Omaha th sooner the better. 1 Kvea those most opposed to It say It will come some time and tt might as well be done first as lsst and be over with. The people who went to Lincoln have the noise, but those who favor th passage of th Howell bill are veiy much mor numerous. Let us cut "South' out and make It Omaha forever from now on. f! a. agnew.
