Neutrality Ueber Allei! The long delayed Jarring of the federal patron a it e plnm tree so eagerly awaited by the Nebraska faithful l at last a fart, disclosing the president still entrenched in a position of neutrality. The relative strength of the battle line of the belligerent democratic factions remains un changed except by advance of each side into rampart evartisted by republicans. Here are the political war bulletins: Colonel Bryan has been permitted to deploy a detach ment of his forces under Brother-in-law "Tommy" Allen into the district attorney's head quarters, and to send a flank scouting party led by Judge Ioomls to take possesion of the In ternal revenue supply depot. From the opposite side, Herr Fleldmarshal ton Hitchcock has been signalled to move fits fleet of prairie schooners, commanded by Ad miral "Tom" Flynn, Into the protected harbor known as United States marshal's point, and to kcate his personal military aide? flub-Lieuten- ant McCune In the customs house lookout. Honors are easy! Odds are even! No one loses any ground except the undeserv- ng republicans, and the requirements of presi dential neutrality fully observed. In the mean while, the democratic ammuni tion factories are working over time on gas shells and ink-filled shrapnel and the noise of the sharpening of the spears and the whetting of the knives may be heard In both camps. Chant u qua circuit which will arrange for Joint debates between Colonel Roosevelt- and Colonel Bryan will not only arouse the sporting blood, bat will require extra hands to count the money. ' Parents are now blamed for the fault of their children. Critics should exercise patience.

Castro, the former president of Veneiuela, has about aa fold welcome In, the sub-tropical Lnla West Indies as Huerta, the former presi dent of Mexico, encountered In the temperate one United Btates. Just the same it would not be a bad Idea for the various civic organixations who from time to time voice complaints about expensive local government to get In on the budget estimates before the levy Is made. Should CousLts Marry? Each of the warring nations Is explaining that It has ample resources to keep oa playing the war game for several years. If not Indefin itely. If that ts the rase, the sooner they start negotiating the peace treaty the better. Future of Manufacturing-. Not all of American energy is now being de voted to the manufacture of war materials, al though for the present that department of in dustrial activity Bems to overshadow the more Important and beneficial undertakings that are going forward. All lines of Industry are renew ing life, and many that had languished because of foreign competition are coming to the front This Is especially true of chemicals, dyes and some other articles, for the supply of which America had come to depend on Germany. The advance In these lines will be more rapid when a very Important factor has been decided. American makers are asking that they be given some assurance that their investments in. new plants will not be Jeopardized by foreign actlvl- ties when the war Is over. A Michigan chemical compady reports Its experience of a few years ago to illustrate this point. It began the ex port of a bromide, and was informed by German manufacturers that for every pound of the American-made article exported, Germany would send two pounds to this country. And the threat was realized; Germany did send the brom ide to the United Btates, paid the 25 per cent duty and undersold fhe Michigan manufacturers in the home market. Other American firms had had similar experience, and It Is against this sort of competition they ask for protection. Plants for the making of war munitions are not. to be . permanently devoted to such uses, are virtually owned by the government to whose order they have been built, and will only revert to the American companies at the end of the war. Until European Industry can be reorgan ized, the United States will continue a heavy ex porter, but when the shops of the countries now at war can again be started up, the battle for Industrial supremacy will be renewed. Even the democrats are becoming impressed with the vital necessity of making provisions for the fostering of American industries after the war, but the free trade policy of that party is too firmly rooted to give the manufacturers the complete assurance of protection they must have. The republican party Is traditionally de voted to the building up of home factories, and will surely meet and solve this problem In the only effective way. Another Model. Town. Anchorage,' the new town that will be the water-side terminal of the railroad the federal government Is to construct in Alaska, Is to be a model town. At least that is the word sent out from there, under approval of the officials in charge of the project. Just what model it Is to follow is not vouchsafed, other than the inferen tial information that it will not be on the lines of early day Alaskan mining camps. "Model" towns art not a novelty, nor have they been uniformly successful. . In far-gone antiquity. It was the easy practice of a conqueror to set the conquered at work, erecting a "model" city to take the place of the one he destroyed, and from deep burled ruins archaeologists have exhumed records that give us marvel. In modern times the experiment has not so often been tried. Con stantlnua built a model city and called It Con stantinople, and Gibbon tells us it fell to pieces in a comparatively short time after it was brought into being. Whether this proves the fallacy of the Idea, or that the builders of that time were grafters, may be open to speculation George M. Pullman built a model city for his workmen, but later had to give over the idea, and allow the Individuals to have their own way Russia founded a model city at Port Arthur, but the Japanese interference with Its full develop ment, leaves unsettled any question that might have been attached to its future. Uncle Sam has proved himself in many ways the superior of Nebuchadnetsar, Cyrus, Alexander, Con ataotinus or any of that lot of builders, and hts work Is generally done with more of real thor oughness than that accomplished by Ruaaia, eo Anchorage may yet stand to the world as an ex-. ample of what may be done by a government when it sets out to provide a model. utarary Duyeat THAT the manias of kin. dlte the conclusion of Horn hlnh author HI", may attended with no evil reatilta, aava when both Block a are weak, la the theala defended by the late Dr. Edward Nettle ahlp of the Kntveralty of London, In a noathumona paper printed In The Journal of Heredity. Th subject of mania are between blood relation", he note, la on inmn which there has been milch diversity of opinion, douttleea often baaed upon the experiences of certain Ins-la families. Thoae who object, from Individual experience, would perhaps be surprlaed to find. Ir. Nettieahlp aava. that the children of mucins aome times ahow decided Improvement upon their parents. Tn ahort, he venturea to think that the subject Is one upon which wa may well aeek more knowledge and greater dear nes of thought. He goes on to ay or aui h marriage: "Tha fundamental queatlona are (1) whether the offaprlna; of eonaanftulneoua rrent display Inferior or degenerate characters In larger proportions than do tha cffaprlng of unrelated parcnta? And 2). If euch. an effect can be ahown. la the appearance of these undV'Irable characters attributable to something pro duced de novo by the union of parents related In blood, but who themaelvcs contain tio trace of euch characters, either manifest or hidden Or axe the de fecta only a result of both parents being tainted, but not tainted badly enough to ahow? "The second queatlon la not merely academic. For If conaangulnlty can produce anmethlng bad, good, or Indifferent that has never occurred before In the genealogy, then no cousin marriage Is aafe. But If It la only a case of inheritance from Dot parents, a tainted (air who have no community of blood will, an far aa wa know, he aa likely to have undesirable offaprltig aa If they were tainted couilna; while cnualna who are free from taint will be expected to yield normal children. ' It must be aald at once that the data for answer ing the flrat queatlon upon atatlatlcal grounds do not exiat, bpcauae no one tia to the present time ban been able to obtain sufficiently accurate returns of the relative number of coneagulneeus and unrelated mar riages. "As to the second queatlon: Are the defects some time observed In the ofspring of consanguineous parenta due to the conaangulnlty aa such or, on the other hand, to both parents being tainted? "In regard to the de novo origin of defects In chil dren of coualn psrentage. we find Charlea Darwin stating his belief na follow, after having; devoted much attention to the subject: 'I hope to show tn a future' work that conaangulnlty by Itaelf counta for nothing, but acts aolely from related organlama hav ing a similar constitution, and having been exposed In moat cases to similar conditions:' and 'a recent authority, Prof. J. Arthur Thomson of Aberdeen, con siders thst 'the Idea that there can be any objection to the marriage of two healthy couaina who happen to fall In love with each other Is preposterous.' Many similar, and also some, but I think a diminishing number of, opposing opinions might be cited. "Whet, then. Is the origin of the view, or st least the suspicion, held by many, that consanguineous unions are Injurious aa such? Without going back to the early history of marriage coustoms and prohibi tions a task I am not competent to undertake It In, 1 think, enough to aay that the early Christian church appeara to be chiefly responsible for the existing resi due of prejudice against the marriage of cousins. Tha church put Its ban upon consanguineous unions at first In connection with the cult of asceticism and cellbaoy; later, because It was able by the sale of Indulgences to make money by allowing consanguin eous couples to break the canonical rules for a con sideration. That this was so Is confirmed by the sub. sequent extension of the prohibitions to vsrlous affini ties, or even accidental associations, between persons not related at all by blood. . Of course, other csnses have been and are still at work In both encouraging snd discouraging consan guineous marrtagea. Dr. Nettleshlp thinks thst the most operative cause of, hostility to these unions is the confus'on between Inheritance of defect from two slightly tainted but apparently normal parents and the supposed creation of an entirely new thing by union between thoae of related blood. For Instance, If among the children of seemingly normal cousins there should be some born desf and dumb, no surprise need be felt if the couslnahlp, as such, Is blamed; although Inquiry might have found cases of the same malady in ancestors or collaterals. To quote further from Dr. Nettleshlp'a discussion: "That consanguinity of parenta repeated through many generations Is compatible with the maintenance of a high standard of health and vigor (mental and bodily) la demonstrated by well known Instances. "Of course, plenty of examples are to be found where an excessive proportion of diseased and de generate is found smong the offspring of coualn parenta But these prove no more than that if sucn degnnerarlea exist in the stock they may be transmitted. 'That inbreeding, very much closer In degree and repeated far more often than anything In modern human society, does not necessarily lead to degener acy, but quite the contrary, la ahown by the history vi modern breeds of domestlo animals. For it Is of course sdmltted not only that the marvelous lm. pro'vements effected during the last 1B0 years In the breeds of horses, oxen, sheep snd pigs to name only the more Important kinds of live, stock have been reached by careful selection of the Individuals possess in the charactere deal red; but that, aa we are con stantly - told, the only way to secure and fix such desirable characters Is to carry out thla crossing of near relations. I think, therefore, we may conclude that mar riages between cousins ' 4rV as safe from the eugento- polnt of view as any other marrlagaa. provided the parenta and stock are sound.. ... The difficulty, or course, ootn for consanguineous and out-marrlages la to decide upon this vital point; and as for obvious reasona the family history Is more likely to be forthcoming -for -a pair of coualns than for an unrelated tlr, we have here a part explana tion of tha aversion to cousin-marriage met with In some families. This explanation will tell with apo dal force If the disease or defect Is relatively rare, for then It will be more likely to occur, though in a latent form, in two coualna than In two strangers But If the Aefeot apprehended be a frequent one, e. g., tuberculosis, the otiancea of the hereditary liability to' it being present In both parenta and Intensified in their children may be much the aame whether the parents were coualna or not."

To the Editor of The Bee: I want to commend The Bee for making a string protect against the early fati-rrtay closing of the Omaha public library. The people who derive the greatest benefit from the public library are those who are compelled to work during the day time and who can only avail them selves of Its privileges during the even ing. Closing the library at 2 p. m. on Saturday will therefore deprive a large portion of our people of the advantages of an institution which they support lib erally through taxation. The citixens of Omaha are proud of their well equipped library, which repre sents sn Investment of more then $000, 000, and the taxpayers are deeply Inter ested In aeeing that It accomplishes the greatest possible amount of good for the people. We tiave the plant, consisting of the building and the books, so why not give those who are paying the bills every op portunity to use It. Let us hope that the Ubrsry board will see the error of the early closing Idea and proceed to keep the library open as many hours as poealble each day, so that those who are unable to go to the library during the day time may havo the benefit of the heavy Investment made by the people of Omaha.
