Thanks, Mr. Weather Man, for your Eaater-bonnet-favorlng torecaat In the aecond round the lubmarinet seem to be putting it all over the airships. The transition to Greater Omaha is only a step in the continuous forward march. . i V Xook out for campaign roorbacha and fakes. Do your own thinking and make your own slats. If there Is one among the seventy-three who Is not sure he has It cinched, he Is an unique exception. " In the eyes of Omaha authorities short weighting in fruit Is much more reprehensible than short-weighting In bread. Life Is taking on a normal tone down east. New Tork editors hare resumed discussion of the primacy of red-haired girls ; The talk Is now that Secretary Bryan may jump into the Nebraska senatorial pool In 1916. Come on la the water's fine. Our famous old friend, "MoGlnty, must be a pretty busy reception committee these days "down at the bottom of the sea." Still, it the deserter is doomed te be shot, it cannot make so much difference' to him whether he is shot from the front or the back The Transatlantic, yoyager who falls to work off a submarine thrill on landing should hare his Imagination examined by storied experts. Advance contracts for this year's wheat at 11.00 a bushel la the brand of confidence that stimulates the energy of t the man behind the plow. "The Jitney Is a guerrilla, of publle senrioe,' exclaims a, New Tork paper. Some tender come near headquarters are getting painfully appre hensive. J V Man's inhumanity to man Is proverbial, but that was very unladylike in those Chicago suf fragettes to break up their fair sisters' political ' meeting 7'.' V It is said that the commoners of England "dearly love a lord," but It is yet to be deter mined whether they will tag the lords to ths water wagon. Italy's campaign of scientific pressure on the dual monarchy bears a close resemblance to the methods of Omaha's blstorlo claim club. In both cases pressure Is a means of expediting the transfer of real estate. Easter Sunday. No other festival or holiday of the Christian church la fraught with the deep and all-pervading significance that marks Easter. The Joy of the resurrection is welcome for its material as well aa Its spiritual promise. Its symbolism is not exclusive to the church, for the pagan world as well sharea In the measage of the day To the Christian It typifies the foundation of his fsith; to the pagan the rebirth of nature is sig nificant of the triumph of life over death. The procession of the seasons Is immutable, recurring with such precision as to time that the date of pannage from one to the other Is perma nently fixed upon the calendar. Yet, for all the wonders are repeated once each twelve-month through all recorded time, the phenomena of springtime are ever new. Nature In her many ways makes an irresistible appeal to man's im agination,, and provides thus a stimulant for his spiritual aspirations. In contemplation of ths marvels of the visible world, the mind lose itself in admiration, but at no time is this so im pressive as when, in the warm days of early spring, man ates the almost Insensible but wholly marvellous processes of birth and re newal about him. Then, if ever, does he "look through nature up to Nature's God." "Noiselessly as the springtime her crown of verdure weaves" comes to him the conviction of the life after death, and man's faith in immor tality finds its most befitting expression in the rejoicings that mark the observance of Easter. Is the End of the War Fearing; t From all sides, and from all varieties of sources, come expressions of belief that some thing is about to happen that will bring us near to the end of the great European war. Just what is the foundation of this expectation, or with what weight of authority these Intimations are backed, is not clear, but the predictions of an early close of the fierce conflict are coming thicker and faster. It goes without saying that the war must see a finish in due course of time, and that the com batants most have demonstrated to their own satisfaction that neither side can be whipped or blotted off the face of the earth. To that extent conditions must be more propitious toward peace parleys whenever the opening for them may come than at any time since the outbreak. That the peace of Europe was seriously threatened was regarded by people generally as a more pre- Iposterous prospect one week before the confla gration biased forth in all Its fury than now the proposition that peace eould as suddenly be re stored within a week or a month. That explains why every harbinger of peace is eagerly wel comed as a help toward the triumph of our hopes over our fears. Charing; Old Calamity. The business skies are clearing rapidly throughout the) United States. During the past week changes for the better, were notable in tho stock market, In banking Vlrcles and In various Industries which are not affected by war supply contracts. Increased activities are reported in the copper mines of the north and northwest. Most of the steel mills of Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania nave resumed operations or are steadily increasing their working force. Similar improvement in the textile mills of the east and south emphasizes the general character of the uplift animating all lines. General confidence commands the business situation to a marked degree. The nation's trade balance has mounted up to the unprece dented total of $600,000,000, and going up by leaps and bounds. As a national consequence bank reserves have Increased enormously, and the available supply of money in the banks of the United States is greater than, ever before. This overflowing abundance already is reflected in the revival of trading on Wall street and the removal of the minimum price limit which pre vailed since the opening of the Stock exchange on the first of the year. A comparison 0f pres ent prices of eighteen leading stocks with the closing prices of July last, with one exception. "show gains which accurately gauge the confi dence of the investing public. The productive west has I (ready shared la the abundance which higher prices brought, and hold considerable wealth In its reserve bins. Seed time is at hand and the season opens under uncommonly farorable weather conditions. Viewed from every angle, and without enthusi asm, the prospects for the year mocks pessimism and) challenges enterprise to greater deeds. Omaha looms large in the activities stimu lated by brightening skies. A united and greater city practically assured, 1 an unusually large roster of big buildings projected or under way, and choice realty commanding unprece dented prices, epitomises fn a striking manner the home confidence and push which will make 1118 aa epochal year la the city's progress. Church Efficiency. The keynote of church efficiency is struck. It seems to us, and perhaps also the keynote to efficiency U every field of activity, by the little paper published by the Westminster church, when it invokes the spread of self-help inside the congregation instead of a call tor outside assistance. A better attendance at midweek prayer meeting, tor example, is desired, and th chureh members are Informed that if they bestir themselves and make up their minds to do It, they can readily accomplish this and other good objects. Quoting the exact language: There la a man going Around among the churchee of Nebraska and eleewhere trying to arouse them In all lines of efflcleocy." Now, wa know pretty wall what be would say If ha came to us, and, to tell the truth, wa do not want blm to coma; w have brains and can una them, supposing wa so after these thtnss without anybody from outside owning to tall us about them. One Is tha prayer meeting. Another la for the members of tha church to so out and do aome inter- aated calling oa tha people Irving rurht here within a few squares of tba church, This would bo advertising In one of tba bast way a Than It would ba a good schema to do more Advertising than we do. If have tha best thing in all tho world, why not get Iople to think about It and noma and bear the goepal wa know "la tba power of Ood unto aalvmtion to , everyone that beUsvesT The thought here, if we read It aright, lg that it is seldom necessary for a church to lia- pot an efficiency expertthat people can bestir themselves it they will, and will do more whea self-aroused than it they wait for someone to prod them into action which continues only so long as the prodding is kept up. OutvdL S YXAjlrvvftA y TToroa Mnwiria Woman In Practical Politics. Pont go over to Chicago and tell the "boys" there that woman isn't apt when, it comes to learning the rules of a game, as well how to avoid them. An example Just set out shows the dear sisters know as well as mere man how to pack a meeting and break up the other fellow's plan for "making medicine." The remarkable feature of the affair is that they went right Into the lion's den. to put it over. Male politicians would think quite a while before going down to "Bathouse John's" ward to break up a demo cratic gathering, but the women folks did the trick. Published accounts of the proceeding Justify the belief that woman will have little to learn of practical politic when she is finally given the unlimited franchise in the Sucker state, PLEASING as It Is to his old Nebraska frlrnds and admirers, tha landing of "BUI" Hayward In a Itf.OOS appointive Job In New Tork by tha graco of Governor Whitman, la evoking eotne protest and considerable newspaper discussion down in Gotham. It won t make any difference to Ilayward now, for ha la aafely 'ensconced In his new position, and It la merely up to hlrn to make sood, aa 1 am confident ha will If given half a chance. But the chief sTlevance over hla advancement appears to be baaed on tha natural resentment ajralnst a comparative newcomer Jumping over the heads of the time-servers, and pick ing the big plum that others think should ba theirs. In announclns Haywnrd's appointment. Governor Whitman expressly declared that It was purely "per aonal," and that there was "no politics In it" and It Is this statement that Is excepted to most vehemently. Tha opponents of the sovernor cannot sea why Hay ward should ba ao preferred unless for political rea sons, and Insist that his chtof eenrtoeabliity must noma from hla acquaintance In tha west, and tha ex perience and Influence acquired while secretary of tha republican national committee. It la currently accepted aa fact that Governor Whitman la In tho grooming for tha 1S1S republican presidential nomination, and tha political soothsayer had It all fixed that Hay ward was to take oharga of the Whitman pre-con-rentlon campalrn, a Job which hardly fits In with the duties attaching to tho position of publlo service commissioner. I have reason to belleva that tha critics have their wires crossed, and that while Hayward will, of course, go tha limit of devotion for hla oh lei, and will ba among his eloaet political advisers, ha will not ba tha active manarer of his presidential boom even when developed far enough to require watchful steer ing. I, happen to know that Ilayward haa become particularly Interested In tha work of the utilities board as a result of his Insight Into It during the legislative Investigation, which ho- eonduoted, and that ha really wanted the position for tha opportunity It presents as nrach as for tha tempting salary. And tha very circumstances of hla appointment must have tha effect of spurring him on to attend strictly to tha business In hand, and thus confound and disap point tha knockers. A bank clerk was telllns; of his troubles. ' "The man In the bank la supposed never to make a. mts take, or at least never to admit making it. but ac cidents will happen even In tha best regulated banks. Why wa have throe accounts In tha name of 'EM J. Brown,' and all of them different persona, and maybe it doea not take constant oara to Avoid making thm up. I have no doubt similar confusing situations exist In every big banking Institution." Tha recent story that those wo ancient political antagonists, "Church" HOwa and "Tom" Majors, had again become friends and burled the hatchet ao deep that It cannot ba resurrected durtns; their remaining lifetime, recalls an Incident of mora than twenty years ago, with a similar reconciliation as Its background. It was, I believe, tha first state convention I ever attended down at Lincoln, for which Dr. 8. D, Mer cer, being the republican state chairman, had put a box in the old Lansing theater at the disposal of aome of us boys. Including George Mercer, Wallace Broatch, myself and others. It was, moreover, tha convention that nominated Crounse for governor over Majors altar an exciting bolt, and a sensational recovery but that Is not the point to the story.' Major's gubernatorial boom had brought about one of those periodic apectaoiea of "burying of tha hatchet" between "Church" and "Tom," and upon "Church," aa chairman of tha Nemaha delegation, devolved ths glorious duty of rlslijg In his place at tha proper point In tho roll call and announcing "Nemaha votes solid for Thomas 3. Majors." Tha day was oppreslvely hot. and ooata and col lars were soon stripped. From our box wo could aee' "Church" Bitting- next to "Tom' and fanning vigor ously with a palmleaf tx it ween oratorical outbursts. Finally, despite all heroic efforts, tha decisive ballot showed "Tom" beaten, and then "Church" relinquished hla responalbllltiea, transferring hla onerous duties to one of the, other delegates, and came -up to visit In the box with us boys. "Young men,"' said he, 'Tra glad to see you here. I'm glad to see you taking such an Interest In political affairs and coming to a convention where you can learn something of the practical aide of politics." Pausing while a twinkle began to play about the corners of hla eyes, "Curch" seemingly hesitated a moment and then added: "Tou can learn a valuable lesson right now from what you have Just witnessed from my sad experi ence. Learn to take defeat cheerfully as I do." SECULAR SHOTS AT PULPIT. Houston Port: It Is well enough for the brethren and the slsterwi to remember that one's religion la not to ba tested by the voice. A deaf mute never falls to land at the gates of glory If his heart IB all right. Indianapolis Starr A New Tork pastor preached a sermon tha other day In which he advocated more liberal divorce laws, declaring that divorce was the "shameful luxury of the rich." That man ought to coma out to Indiana at once. Ha would find that divorce Is a luxury that tha poorest may and do Indulge In, regardlesa of the high cost' of living. New Tork World: The people In this country wholly without chureh connec tions greatly outnumber the pagans ot Europe at the time when Paul rtrst set foot upon the continent. Although an educated man, the great Apoetle per sonally was exceedingly Ulfavored. Ernest Renan spoke of him as "an ugly little Jew." Many of his formallstlc brethren at Jerusalem were as much opposed to his methods as the ministers of Important churches now are to those of Mr. Sunday. Tet Paul carried his massage to GTeece and TAome, and It subdued the phlloao- phera, the Caesars and tha barbarians.

Islington and Yorktown, ffhlloh, Vicksburg and Gettysburg would have been la vain but for tha final triumph of the union armies at Appomattox. That crowning event was to America what tha keystone U to the arch holding It together In Its beauty and strength. Bo Appomattox Is tha keystone In the struc ture of our national temple, binding It together "One and indivisible, now and forever." At the dedication of tho temple and arch erected by Harvard to tha memory ot her aona who had fallen In tha great atrusrsla, Oliver Wendell Holmes moat appropriately and beautifully said: "Tell their bright deede to ages unoornl Emblem and legend may fade from the portal, . Keystone may crumble and portal may fall; They were tho builders whose work Is Immortal, Crowned with tho dome that Is over us all." Tha fiftieth anniversary of Appomattox, April S, 1915k ahould be gratefully and reverently observed by all the people,. Cutting the Jail-feeding graft from B0 cents a day to SI cents a day is some cut. But why should anyone be permitted to feather Ms nest out of the prisoners' board? Why should not Jail meals be furnished at cost to the taxpayers, the same as meals to Inmates of the detention home and couaty hospital, and without profit to any publlo officer already drawing a fat salary!

New Tork Time People and Events The lure of the stage drew 1.000 young persons to a Chlrago theater office which advertised for help. Out of the flock of applicants only thirty were needed to fill the lighter parts in the rear shadows, Oklahoma's latest crop of lawmakera provided special pains and penalties for the crime of bank robbery.
