for final adjournment. So thore is no tellln-J
what may happen within the next few days
It has been the experience of Nebraska thHt
many important and far-reaching measures have
been rushed through in the last moments of a
leglflatlve session, and many a bill has become a
law that would otherwise have been amended
In many particulars, if not actually killed, had
there been time for full and reasonable consider
ation of Its provisions.
It Is too early to measure the real work of
the present general assembly, but so far Its
merit hsg been chiefly negative; that is. It Is
more notable for what It has not than for what
it has done. This service is worthy of note, for
good is wrought by the heading off of vicious or
ill-timed bills, and in this way the chance for
service "is still open. Many of the measures still
on file and likely to come up for passage are
inherently bad. and the working members of the
legislature must still be on their guard agalni.t
them.
The pressure of work now becomes a source
of danger. The date for adjournment should be
made as early as possible, but with an ample al
lowance of time for properly finishing tb work
before the legislature.
Pl&gue Adds Its Terror to War.
War's most dreaded ally, disease. Is nov
actively at work. If w may credit the tale from
strife-torn Rerbla about the ravages of typhus
fever, surpassing In its completeness of horror
all that has been to!d of the present war. This
terrible plague has fallen on every quarter and
every rank In the stricken country, and Its help
less victims are without hope of succor. The
world has become somewhat accustomed to the
grisly pictures from the battlefields, grimly
realizing that such are within men's control,
but here is a scourge that defies science, and
takes its toll without stint and without distinc
tion or choice. Out of tht dreadful gloom that
overcasts Serbia shines one vision tho heroism
of the American Red Cross doctors and nurses.
No more terrible task was ever allotted to mes
sengers of mercy and relief, nor was ever des
perate venture faced with more of bravery or
truer courage than has marked the devotion of
these men and women to their undertaking.
Death has not spared them, nor daunted them.
Their calm heroism is worthy of recognition far
beyond "that carried by a decoration won in
armed conflict on land or sea. Americans
should be proud of their contribution to the war.
President Wilton and the Children.
One of the touching little bits of "human in
terest" In tht daily news is the letter received,
by the president of the United States from a
little Belgian girl, and endorsed by her brother,
thanking him for the bread they have lately
eaten. To this the president replies In a charac
teristic manner, giving bis litjle correspondents
a word of cheer, and expressing the sympathy all
Americans feel for the little ones who suffer.
It is the touch of nature that makes tht wholo
world kin. While other presidents have shown
a similar quality, no other attribute of President
Wllsob becomes him more than thlt ready syra
'pathy with the little folks. In thla he speaks
for the true type of American citizen, to whom
nothing is more appealing than childhood.
Ii it Not a Backward Step t
Where are our usually vigilant champions
of social Justice legislation? Art they awrt
that a measure Is beading for the statute bjoks
down at Lincoln repealing the Nebraska r, reg
ulating tht hours and cou'wCL: c! tabor for
women wage-workers so far at it relates to
women who work In town or villages of less
than 8,000 population?
Should the size of a city or town determine
the length of a woman's working day? Should
a woman who Is compelled to work for a living
In Plattsmoutb, or In' Ralston, or in Benson, or
In Blair, be unprotected against employers' ex
actions as compared with the women doing the
itmi work In Hastings, in Fremont or In Bea
trice? Is not this proposed partial suspension of
the law regulating women's labor a hackward
step without justification?
. Baie Ball in the Offing.
Along with the golden sunshine of the first
spring dsys comes another comforting thought.
In lets than a month now tht bast ball season
will be opened, and the American mind will have
something other than ar news and business
troubles to occupy Its waking hours. Tht box
scort will takt precedence over tht closely cen
sored bulletins from acrosa tht water. Forts
may fall, and ships may sink, but the battle on
the diamond will draw men's thoughts away
from the clash of arms abroad. The slap of a
home-run will drown tht crash of a forty-two-centlmeter
shell, and the parabola of a three
bagger will look more graceful than the flight
of an armored airship.
It Is high time that some relief were af
forded man from the evils that have beset bis
dally walk during along and dreary winter, and
base ball will provide that relief. Tht call of
tbt umpire will ring louder than tht voict of
the muezzin, and the attendntt It will com
mand win bt mort spontaneous.
Bant ball Is a grand game, deservedly popu
lar, sufficiently venerable to command respect
because of its years, but ever renewing lis
youth with th coming of spring: always railing
the young met and the boys out to act It par
tlcipatlon in It athlett delights, and giving
to tho whoa limbs ar no longer supple and
active the reminiscent Joy of rigorous games
played loag ago.

The Political Caldron
THE ponalhlllty that the elty elortlon mlfht h po
noned threw quite a srare Into many of tliOfw
who have already paid their money for cam
paign card and liava expended much onergy, telling
their friend of their canrtldaclea. There In a fuel
ing now that this mill not come to paaa.
One man In touch with affairs political points out
what he Tiellcves would be a dlenatrou situation
l.'ould thla election be put off. lie thinks Ifgal Ucli
nkalUlrg would arte wheraby the present commis
sioners might hold ever for three years.
Anothor man off'rs this way out of the dilemma:
Elect another charter convention, draw up another
charter, adopt that charter lnstanter and mbody In
that charter JuHt w-hat the poop's here want In the
way of an election. Peeins simple enough.
This week should clear the atmosphere. Inasmuch
as Friday Is the date set for tha last of the filings
and also for the last registrations for the primary
on April . If the election should bo deferred It will
mean re-opening- the entry list and practically another
rampaJgn. Ruch are the uncertainties of political 1if.
James Walsh of Benson declares people neeJ
not he exercised over tho matter, of Benson being
Included In ths Greater Omaha territory. As long
as hs Is on th Job, lie, says, this matter will be carod
for. The "difference" between Benson and Omaha
la a strip of land embracing an area of sevon-tentha
of a square mile, and the question is whether Benson
or Omaha should take up this strip.
Street corner discussions disclose that a lot ot
Intelligent men In Omaha today cannot state with
any dejrree of certainty whether they ar to vote at
the dty primary for seven or for fourteen candidate.
Many assume that fourteen Is the number, because
there will b fourteen nominees for th regular elec
tion ballot. Beven will be the number to be voted
for on April . This matter wa thoroughly discussed
three years ago. at th time of Omaha's first com
mission plan campaign.
This subject was being talked over the other day
by a group at a Farnam atret rendezvous. One of
th group, a lawyer and former legislator, was posi
tive he would be abl to vote for fourteen, but lie.
was quickly convinced of his error.
It will also' Interest voters to know that they may
lawfully sign only seven petitions. It is a practice
1o sign nearly every petition presented and very fw,
If any, keep count of how many they have signed.
There Is more or lst comment why th Omaha
Ministerial union presented their vie report to the
city commisaioners Just at thla particular time. ' Is
this not the "psychological moment" for such a
demonstration?
The conference between the ministers and the
commissioners resolved Itself into something akin to
a mutual admiration society. The ministers averred
they came to help th commissioners and the latter
referred to the pastors as representing a large con
stituency. Afterwards, Rev. Titus Lows approache.1
the mayor and vouchsafed the information that it
was a "booster meeting," and that the ministers
wanted to "get behind" th commissioners.
It was certainly th most harmonious confab be
tween the ministers and city officials held in many
moons. The commonwealth was well represented, but
those who expected to see all kind of pyrotechnics
set off w-ere sadly disappointed. ,
Optimism springs eternal In the political breast.

he ,WU1 receive 3,600 votes because that many have
promised. "When trams Com True" is th name
of a political song which will b written soma day.
Soma of th candidates are showing individuality
in getting out their campaign cards. . Jo Kummol
has his picture In a circle with the slogan "Safety

he recites that h is for "A square deal to ail, re

list of things he favors. Frank T. Qulgtsy lets It

T pass over "Baker's" allusion to the
Injustice ot a law compelling him to put
sixteen ounces In a loaf, his absolutely
silly comparison ot It to law regulating
"the stse of eggs a hen shall lay" as
entirely unworthy of serious notice.
Will simply say that It la no mora un
just to require a baker to put sixteen
ounces of bread In a loaf than to make a
miller put forty-eight pounds of flour In
a sack.
Personally when I found that my loaf
of baker's bread hud dwindled to eleven
ounces, I ordered a sack of good Ne
braska flour tor which I paid $3 and front
that I baked with very little labor more
than seventy losves ot bread far superior
to the baker's produot and weighing six

profited accordingly. Other houaewlvea

THIS nation is slowly but surely awak
ening to the remarkable food value
of Macaroni. When we consider the
splendid physique of Southern Europeans,
who make Macaroni their main staple,
we can well afford to give this econom
ical food a large space in our daily menu.
MACARONI
is made from rpurum wheat, a cereal ex
tremely rich in gluten. Gluten is the
food element that goes to build up 'firm
tissue and rich blood. You can make
no end of relishable dishes with Faust
Macaroni. It is easy to digest, too. Write
