What to Do After Election.
With the election off our hands, the good
people of Omaha will be permitted td resume
eorne little matters that have been Uld over as
unfinished budneas.
Anions these items, first In importance, per
haps, Is the city planning scheme. It was par
tially worked out before the legislature was
asked to make the necessary amendment to the
charter to give It life. Now even greater need
for this work is more apparent and more urgent
than ever, with the extension of the city to in
clude Its suburbs. The general plan should be
worked out as speedily as possible, because of
the assistance It will be in planning for public
and private Improvements that must be made.
Another problem that will be np to the clt
commissioners, and waiting for consideration, is
the collection and disposal of garbage. This ha
been dealt with In makeshift fashion for many
years, and has never been on a satisfactory basli.
Some definite plan for the settlement of this Im
portant question should be worked out very soo-i
after the new commission gets into running
order. .
The Commercial club Rhould press for the
railroad line into South Dakota direct. This Is
the most important railroad proposition now
before the city. It means the opening of a great
productive region, whose output should have thi
advantage of the Omaha market. Interurban
line should not be neglected and many other
Important projects have been mooted that
should not be permitted to languish.
Omaha's echedule for the future has many
important matters set down, all tending to tho
growth and betterment of the city, and plenty
of work for all in pushing them to a successful
ending.
Waiting' for the Official Report
The administration is wisely withholding
Judgment on the Gulfllght case unt.ll it is in full
possession of the facts,- which are not as Vet
at hand. It could do nothing else, for reports ro
far received consist of statements to the Amer
ican consuls, made by members of the crew of
the OulfMght, or come through English sources.
It Is not at all likely these will be made any too
favorable for the Germans. We may leave it to
the president to take action, it any be needed,
when he has had both sides of the story from
American sources. The incident Is exasperating,
but It is hard to. believe that a German com
mander would deliberately attack the American
flag under the circumstances. It Is not the only
case in which the rights of neutrals have been
dlsregared, nor Is Germany the only nation to
offend in this manner.
Strange, however, that the trainmen became
thoroughly convinced that Arbitrator' Nagel was
prejudiced only after the award was made
.which fell short of satisfying them. '
A fitting celebration of Nebraska's semi
centennial of statehood must be had despite leg
islative ignoring of the occasion. - Nebraska
will hare a fiftieth birthday only once. .
The meter reading tells you what your water
bill is to be and what your gas bill Is to be. and
there Is no reason why it should not also tell you
w hat your electric lighting bill is to be.
In several district the Voting was seriously
delayed by non-arrival of ballot boxes. Had this
happened in other days it would hare been a
great conspiracy of the powers that be to dis
franchise voters by the wholesale.
There will be no official recognition by this
covernment of the present Mexican factions.
Such is the tip from headquarters. Still If Is
likely Uncle Sam would doff his hat respect
fully if a few Mexican funerals came his way.
"Genuinely Popular Government."
Two things will hava to ba dona In Nabraaka ba
(ora we can hava genuinely popular government, the
veto power ahould ba taken away from the governor
and the state aenata ahould be abolished. We believe
the people of Nebraaka are Intelligent enouarh to Bend
representatives to Lincoln In eno body and hava them
make laws for the people, without any brake being
k put on them by a amaller body that the special Inter-
tbs power to set all their work at naught. Blair Pilot
The inference' is not only that Nebraska does
not now have "genuinely popular government,"
but that we have never bad it, and that no' other
stste In the union has "genuinely popular gov
ernment." . If this were true. It would logically
follow also that we have never had genuine
'popular government nationally, because we have
two bouses of congress acting as a brake oa one
another and subject to a president with a veto.
The lack of logic in this proposition, however, is
dUplayed by the declaration that the people are
intelligent enough to choose one body of faithful
and honest representatives, although not ' in
telligent enough to choose a second body of law
makers or A governor who will honestly and
faithfully exercise check on .the law-makers.
Unfortunately, If we are not to have "genuinely
popular government" in Nebraska until we
abollrfu one branch of the legislature, and ex
tinguish the veto power of the governor, we are
doomed tb be enslaved for some time to come, for
at best.lt would take years to alter these buelo
provlslona of our constitution.
The passage quoted, however, serves to il
lustrate the two widespread lack of clearcut
conception of popular government, and the loose
talk indulged by those who always ftnd every
thing wrong and nothing fight, and demand a
change Just to have something different.
It is Impossible to determine at thi dis
use from the war sons whether death by as

Either way accomplishes what war was Invented
for. Consequently a weary neutral world must
calmly await the last word of the doctors on
this minor detail. . .

China and Japan.
Political developments in the far east sug
gest that Chink and Japan are Just now peril
ously near to war, but the complications of the
Asiatic govern menu are likely to get sestet at
tention from the world,' so long as Europe occu
pies the center of the stage. China is in a pe
culiarly difficult position. It has neither army
nor navy, in the modern sense, and the nations
which have guaranteed Its integrity are now so
situated as to be unable to render assistance,
even If so inclined. The United States la pledged
only to the "open door" in China ana not to the
maintenance of the Integrity of the territorial
rights of the empire. '
'Japan is also in a critical stage of national
existence, both politically and economically. IU
flight Into the upper region of world politics has
been enormously coatly, with little or no return
so far. Japan suffers from an enormous debt,
and Its tsxes are at a rate that is ruinous and
beyond understanding in this country. Forty
cents out of every dollar produced in Japan goes
to pay 'taxes. The leaders of Japan realize that
war la all but beyond their reach; but they alsj
realise the serious' nature of domestic problems
that are pressing always. Some outlet roust be
had for the congested population or Japan, and
new sources' of revenue must be found, and frota
Korea to Manchuria Is but a step.
The Kuropean sttltude is somewhat cynic
ally set forth by the London Times, which re
marks: "The moment is not well chosen for
Europe to lecture Asia on political morality." It
this means anything, It is that Japan will have
a free hand so far as England Is concerned;
other "scraps of paper" will be torn up. and
China will probably feel the foot of another Mon
golia conqueror.
An official anaJyala of our foreign commerce
for March and tor the preceding eight months
of the fiscal years drives another nail in the cof
fin of the notion that neutrals profit by war. The
net loss of this country for months amounts to
$14,000,000. derpite the huge exports of war
supplies.
Echoes of the Editors' Meet
Wahoo Wap; Bay, do you knew It la a sreat thing
to hava them annual Catherines. You forget your
bop and dally business, grind and listea to oratory,
tnuaio and troubles of the other man. Omaha, antet
tamed us quite royally and tho way tho newspaper
folks enjoy themnelve we really believ It Is appre
ciated, ffometlmes wa wonder how Omaha can stand
It to entertain ao laviahly. Probably spent US a head
on everyone of us. There were three In our party,
which would make KIO. The only way wa raVi oaaa
our eonaelenca and f I stir to pay It back Is spending
about 1300 a month the year round for paper and print
ing supplies end publishing aeml-edvartlstng matter

Parrlah aa manager of Its bureau of pnWIetty and
promotion. Mr. Psrrleh is certAlnly a live wire. 1U
may occasionally eat, but wa feel sure ho never
sleeps. To him Is largely due tha fact that tho feel
ing of antagonlam to Nebraska's metropolis Which
was prevalent out In tha state for' e many years
has been replaced by the ktndllaet of feelings and

by tho Commercial club ef Omaha and heard many
splendid talks about tho big city of Omaha, hut there
was one thing that wa could not help taking notice
of. and that was at the various banquets riven in

where tho come-back Is nearly always effective.

Twice Told Tales
Restrained by Lew.
A traveling salesman for a Oanselvoort street
wholeaale grocery firm, recently back from a trip
through the rough landa of eastern Pennsylvania, telle
thia possibly true tale;
"One day on my last trip I had a alx-mlle ride to
make to tha county seat, and the small vfltage In
which I was had only one horao that I could biro and
no other form of conveyance. ' 1 may aay that friend
had landed ma In the town that morning from his
car and 1 had Sold goods enough to pay the expenses
of the trip. '

horse I ever straddled and I was to send him back
by the mall carrier: though not as a parool post pack
age. It took me two houra to cover the dlstanoo I
was sorry enough I hadn't walked and as I passed
tha county Jail on my old bag of bonea a face grinned
at me from between the bars of a small square window.
I was too sore to smile, but I nodded to the grin,
and the prlaoner called to ma:
" 'Say. mister,' ha said, 'how'd you like to trade

have traded, but the law wouldn't let me, and I rotle
