A member of the California legislature, who
boasted before a fair lobbyist that during Ms
forty-three years of life he had never known a
kiss other thsn his mother's, was promptly
kissed before he could defend himself. Which
was one good kiss wasted. Any man who bus
come to the threshold of middle age without
feeling the promptings that turn a young man's
fancy In the days of spring, who has not at some
time breathed soft and airy nothings Into the
listening ear of a charming girl, who has not
even once tasted the supernal delight that poets
revel In describing Isn't worth kissing, even
out of curiosity. He should be allowed to pursue
his lonesome way to an unligbted oblivion, whiH
lobbyists with kisses to bestow plant them on
masculine lips that may feel appreciation born
of experience.
Local Labor Conditions.
The fast approaching end of the montn
warns us that May day has been the usual time
for labor demonstrations and for the focusing
of Industrial disputes. It goes without saying
that there will be no army of labor on parade In
Europe this year because a different kind of
army is on the march. On this side of the
water, unfortunately we already have s'ens of
disturbances In the building trades In Chicago,
and at one or two other points, which every ono
Interested In the continued business upturn now
beginning to be noticeable must deplore.
So far as Omaha Is concerned, conditions
here have for several years found the workmen
busy at good wages and In harmonious relations
with their employers. The outlook was never
brighter for Omaha's material growth, particu
larly In construction work and If this outlook is
realized on as It surely will be our city will
have start In the forward movement of re
covery from the general Industrial depression
that will put It well on the way to pass some of
Its near competitors. So we believe every one
will Join In the hope which we express that all
possible differences between our local working
men and their employers may be amicably ad
justed without stopping or delaying the work in
hand or in prospect.
War and Trade Loaiei.
A government tabulation is not needed to in
form Americans of the well-nigh paralyzing
effect of the Enropean war on our foreign trade.
It serves the better purpose, however, of cor
recting popular errors respecting the nation's
overseas commerce in war time and in banishing
current illusions as to its value.
The government report on exports for the
eight months ending with February show tha

Foodstuffs tops all the gains in exports, but
Its vastnesa Is almost equalled by the loss in cot
ton. A gain of $246,500,000 explains why the
food-producing section of the nation withstood
the strain of disrupted trade with comparative
ease, while the pinch was severest in the cotton
belt and the coast cities. In actual munitions
cf war explosives and firearms the increase
amounts to 112,000,000, which is an insig
nificant proportion of what the warring nations
consume. The total merchandise exports for
the eight months is valued at 11,601,000,000, or
$74,000,000 less than in the same period of
114. The so-called balance of trade in our
favor comes from the decrease in imports, which
are $160,000,000 less than the preceding year
"Because of the shrinkage of imports," the New
York Journal of Commerce points out, "the ex
cess of exports managed to show a gain of $89.
000,000, but this could hardly be atyled a satis
factory exhibit, the fact being that .our total
foreign trade in these eight months was valued
at only $2,690,000,000, against $2,911,000,000
at the same time last year, a loss ot $221.
000.000. The point underscored by the government is
that the trade value of war to a neutral nation
Is a delusion and a snare.
Sealing with the Loan Shark.
Governor Morehead is Just now pluming him
self mightily on having secured the enactment
of a law that reduces the usurious rate ot inter
est to be charged by "loan sharks" to SO to 40
per cent per annum, Instead of 120 to ISO per
cent. Without detracting from any credit due
the governor, the Omaha Commercial club puts
in a claim for some of the glory of having so
cured this law, and a number ot private indi
viduals are known to have taken active Interest
in the matter for quite some time. The gov
ernor was not alcne in the movement for the
reform.
But it is not so much a question ot who did
it as of having It done. The loan shark evil
cried aloud for legal remedy, and more than
deserved the restrictive action taken. But the
blow is not yet fatal. The Interest rate is still
too high, far-ln excess of what Is asked ot other
borrowers. Loopholes will be found In the la v
through which the usurer may escape after
overcharging his victim. The work has only been
well commenced. The state must make still
better provision for protecting its dtlsens
against the rapacity of the men who capitalise
humanity's misfortunes.
Cowardice and meanness In their worst form
are stamped on the crime of dog poisoning. Un
fortunately It is an offense difficult to trace to
ita sour-e. It the perpetratora are caught and
dosed with their own medicine long enough te
work a stomach pump, the punishment would
come within speaking distance ot the offense.

Activities of the various candldatea and organiza
tions ens-Hged In the city campaign presage a busy
woek all along- the line, with street meeting, "hire
a hall" meetings, personal appeal letter and all sort
or advertising stunt.
The Ins and the outs started a little Impromptu
street speaking Saturday evening, Edward Plmon ap
pearing ror the square seven and ,Lew Plxley and
L. U Mcllvalne ror the antia. Tha antls plan to start
Tueday evening on their regular atreet speaking
schedule.
The antls declare they will not be Inveigled Into
the wet-end-dry lacue by the mayor. M. W. Morrow
advised tha. antls to let this Issue alone, as he feara
defeat If the antl candidates take laiue on thla propo
sition. "Make It a business campaign," advlaca Mr.
Morrow, and he thinks he knows from having run up
against that buszaaw when ha waa chasing tha aher
Iff job.
"W F. Baxter, M. O. Cunninehsm. Alvln Johnson.
I. J. Dunn, C. F. Harrison and W, R. Adair compose
the executive committee or the antla, wltn Judge A. L.
Sutton as chairman of the general committee. Theaa
la men haa been aelected to "put over" the alx peo
ple's candldatea. Can they make good? They say they
can and will and declare It will ba a landslide. These
men are by no means Inexperienced In politics.
Mr. Baxter waa Identified with tha Cltlxen' union
movement three yeara ago and last rail engineered
the cltlxen' school board slate.
M. O. Cunningham haa been active In republican
organization and In Improvement club work.
C. F. Harrison Is a real estate man and R, B.
Howell's lieutenant In tha Real Estate exchange. Ha
haa made a specialty or municipal atatlsttcs for years
and waa lined up In tha forefront of tha franchise
fight two years ago.
I. J. Dunn Is a member of the Jacksonlan club,
whoso president says is composed of the "better
element or democracy." Mr. Dunn's greatest exploit
waa In nominating Bryan at tha Denver convention
and ha la quite a golf player, too.
Alvln Johnson Is a lawyer and Adair Is a building
association man.
Tha committee Is composed of men of as widely
divergent activities snd views ss their six candldatea,
but with Judge Button at tha helm tha antls hope to
weather tha atorm and to rid Into port with colors
riylng.
Tha election commissioner estimates that about
27.000 voters have registered for tha election, which
ahowa a lively interest, and he adds that an unusual
number ot men have registered from the upper wards.
If the weather is favorable, a bumper vote la looked
for on May 4.
Both sides will favor Sunday base ball. At least
tha administration bunch makes this one of ita frump
cards and It is certain tha antla will not take tha other
end of It.
Tha oommlttae of republicans who ae following up
the work started by the mass meeting at Washington
hall a week ago report progress to the extent that
they have conversed with many members of tha party
who ssy they will vote for republicans on May 4.
These men have faith In their position that only by
electing republicans will tha city hall cease being a
democratic headquarters. The committee Is having
40,000 cards printed carrying tha names of tha re
publicans who have been nominated.
One of the pet plana of Chairman Button for the
people's candldatea is a flying squadron ot women
working tor "better city government," as ho puts It
A committee of the fair ones, whoso names are not
yet divulged, are enlisting their slaters and tha pur
pose la to have two or three women at each voting
place on election day. The community Is to be re
freshed with tha sight of women out seeking votes
for the six antls and they won't all be suffrage work
ers or club women, either. It is stated.
Of course, tha husbands or the women who are
going to ba modern Joans of Arc must not complain
If they do not see much of their wives during tha
next ten days, or If a little dust accumulates upon
tha piano, or If tha women seem a trifle peeved after
a hard day's campaigning. Do not tha men atay out
to political meetings until 9:30 and even 10 o'clock
and sometimes until 10:15 of tha clock T
Twice Told' Tales
' The Difference.
Herman Fraach, chief chemist or tha Standard Oil
company, who recently died worth 38,000,000. made
many millions for his employers by his utilisation ot
waste.
In an Interview In New Tork, discussing the dis
covery that turned coal tar from a waste to a highly
valuable by-product, Mr. Fraach. one said to a re
porter: "That one little change, that little chemical change,
did It all. There Is never more than a tiny differ
ence, you know, between a waste and a by-product,
between wealth and poverty, between success and
failure.
"Look, for example, Into some greet business office.
Here Is a haggard man In hla shirtsleeve on a high
stool working for dear life he check tha caah. Then,
in a little glasa office all by himself, look at that
other trock-coated man leaning back In a tufted green
leather armchair, smoking a cigar and reading tha
paper he cashes tha checka." Washington Star.

aide Hanttago, Bruce Keenan, who was among tha

suddenly struck with a thought "War Is terrible,"
he said.
The crowd agreed to this.
"But," Keenan went on. "I am a tot aerrter for
the men who are being killed In this war than I am
for the American who loat their lives in the Amerlem
revolution."
"How I that?" someone asked.
"Hecauae," aald Keenan. who was a Judge and
who wa on thla occasion In hla moat serious mood,
"because those killed In tha Revolution would ba deal

OMAHA. April a To the Editor ot
The Bee: My attention having been
called to the fact that four candldatea
ror the office ot city commissioner ad
dreiied the Hanscom Park Improvement
club at Ita meeting held last evening In
the Windsor school. Secretary liourke
gives me the following synopel from the
records of the school board, to-wtl:
At the time tho Board of Education
granted the uao of the school buildings
for other than strictly school purposes.
It waa with the understanding that such
uae would be restricted to social center
clubs, neighborhood meetings of a cul
tural nature. Improvement cluba or any
meeting of an educational or cul
tural tendency, but that political or re
llgloua meetings or any kind would not
be allowed and that any organisation
allowed the ute of the school buildings,
which permitted such discussion at
their meetings would have the privilege
of using the building revoked.
Until tho record 1 amended or re
versed by action or the board I deem It
my duty to caution all Improvement or
other cluba. permitted to meet In school
buildings, not to violate tha rule or tha
board by Inviting or allowing candldatea
to present their personal appeals for be
ing elected to office st meetings held in
our school buildings.
This Is not Intended ss a criticism
against what may have been said or
done at the Windsor school last evening
as I am assured that the presence of the
four gentlemen waa not the reault of
premeditated action by tho club.

TAYLOR. Neb., April K.-To the Edi
tor of The Bee: We are pleased to ob

Had this been firmly fixed In the mind

tha president of Mexico should secure
his office, the kind of a man such presi
dent should be, whether or not the elec

whether or not tho results expressed tha
will ot tho Mexican people, and
whether or not tho government In
force was tha best government for
those people, then wa aa a na

PLATTSMOTJTH, NeD., April . To ths
Editor of The Bee: Tha reply of Secre
tary Bryan to tha recent letter of the
German ambassador at Washington com
piles precisely with the demands which
courtesy, mercy and self-respect demand.
The reproof to the ambassador's Inter
ference in the domeatlo affairs of the
country Is there. Attention Is called to
the ambassador's disregard of Important
acts ot tha United States; And the whole
American situation Is restated with an un
emotional simplicity that should convey
to the ambasaador tha clean Impression
that It is htgh time ha knew what ha waa
talking about
All thla Is dona without yielding In tha
least to the temptation to lose our tern
pers concerning either tha form or tha
substance of tha ambassador's strange
note. Tha realisation of the atreas under
which a warring nation is working evi
dently restrains our pen, aa, indeed, it
should.
But our self-respect Is upheld firmly
and unwaveringly. The letter Is a dls
sgreeabls but necessary Job, done as a
man of character and manners should
do It.
The letter certainly ought to causa a
certain United States senator to feel
mighty small. A. W, ATWOOD.
