Omaha's Police Department
A police department with a maximum
strength of one hundred and eighty-two mem
ber, of which only ninety-five are on patrol
uty, and of then not more than thirty-nine
walking the beat at any one time, tells the
whole story of Omaha's situation with respect
to police protection.
To put It In snother wsy, nearly one-half of
the entire police department conalsts of officers,
plain-clothes men, traffic corps, motorcycle men.
court and jail attendants, and morals squad,
and leas than one-fourth are on patrol at the
time the thugs and thieves usually do their
prowling.
Omaha is spending an amount well up to
the average of other cities of Its clans on its po
lice department. The pollr-e fund has been
r.:oved up from time to time, but each time the
legislature has boosted police salaries almost
enough to eat up the Increase, so that the actual
hdilltlonn to Its strength have been scarcely vlsl
lle. Omaha also lias what is called the "three
platoon system, " which makes only about a
tnird of its patrolmon available at any one time
a system that prevails In very few other
cities. We are riot sure whether the three
lilatoon scheme Is good or bad, but there is no
question about Its being costly. -a
All things considered, Omaha has a pretty
(rood police department, but It can and should
be improved, and this Improvement must come
through better distribution of the men, stricter
dlrcipllr.r, nnd a more definite police policy.
Those, phanes of the police department we will
(IIbcuhs further.
Suffrage Losci in New Jersey.
An advene majority of 50,000 Is New Jer-
ry s -answer to Prenluent ilson's announce
ment of his conversion to suffrage and Intention
to cast his ballot for the state constitution that
was to clothe woman with the vote. To be sure,
the president qualified his announcement with
the statement that he was speaking as a private
citlsen, and not as president of tho United
States. By his own suggestion it would have
been highly improper for him to exert his of
ficial capacity to Influence his fellow citizens In
their vote on a purely state matter, but no
doubt can be held as to the purpose of his public
statement. It was to put behind the suffrage
fight whatever of personal Influence the presi
dent carries In his home state. If so, the con
clusion Is Inevitable that the action of the voters
Is a correct measure of that Influence. In no
slate has Mr. Wilson more bitterly disappointed
his party than in New. Jersey. The public will
now wonder If the vote taken there on Tuesday
Is significant of th difference In his standing
throughout the country today as compared with
three years ago, when he was chosen to be chief
naglstrate.
Carranza Now Hat His Chance.
Formal recognition by the United States of
Venustlano Carrania as do facto president of
Mexico has been carried out with all official
punctilio, and the "first chief" Is now estab
lished as far aa outside influence may achieve.
Vested with all the power that attaches to hla
office, his future must be molded by himself.
Bo far his career has been entirely negative; he
Is recognised for what he la yet to do, and his
conduct from this time must be positive. Unless
his actions as head of Mexico's affairs measure
up to a proper standard, he will disappear as
hove the others who have aspired to fill the seat
ot Porflrlo Dlas. If he can tranqullise his
country, restore its activity along peaceful pur
suits, build up its agriculture and its industry,
give his people security In person and property,
and open the road to progress to them, he will
niake for himself a place In Mexican history ot
true greatness.
That he Is to have the active support ot the
United States, at least to start on, Is shown by
the order from the president, putting an em
bargo on all shipments ot arms or munitions of
war to Mexico, save such as are consigned to
Carranza authorities. This is a first friendly
service from our government to th new Mexican
government, which will be multiplied many
times, If Carranza shows himself worthy.

13 Fatness Just Laziness?
tit, Wm. Brady la The 111 tut rated World
THE MOST common typo of obealty la merely a
matter of celve Intake of fuel coupled wltn
plain laitre. Ijrt ua haaten to add that lail
neaa mean. In thla Indictment, lark of real eierrlee;
as a rule, tha unfortunate doean't know how to play.
As long aa a fat man tor woman) la artlll ready to
play, even If he feela that ha In making a monky
of hlmaelf, there Is hope. When ha reachee tha point
where he healtatea to gat down and roll, to tu n
aomrraaulta. or at leat try valiantly to act tha part
of iindlgnlty, ha ta a fat maa for keep, diet or no
diet.
Pome oheae Individuals are anemic, ihort of blood,
while othera ara plethoric, damned with too much
blood. Anemic obeelty develop, frequently, during
periods of enforced rent, aa after operations, typhoi.l
fever, frarturea, or other confining dlaablllty. Vic
tims of Incipient ttiberctiloala aometlmea develop urn
mlo obeelty from real and forced feeding carried to
extreme.
In plethoric obeelty the subject la generally over
SO years of ag. and, for a time, rather proud of li:s
hearty good health. Somehow we plutocratic Amer
lenna Imagine a email "bay window" and a couple of
china go very well with the florid cheeks of plethoric
obeelty. tha minute, dilated blood-veaaela of tha face
that should serve aa a warning atgnal of approaching
arterlnerleroela (arterial hardening).
Llfo Insurance companies, unromantic corporations

Muscular exerclae la the natural draft for tho oxi

to prevent or remove plled-up fuel. For the average
Individual four mile a dity rain, shine, roast or

trouble the wnlka muiit bo carefully graduated by tho
medical attendant, according Id the heart's efficiency.
Room gymnnatlca are more particularly adapted to the
reduction of exceealve fat deposits about the hips,
bark and abdomen.
Another very efficacious measure is fasting. After
all, a three or four-day faat la no great strain upon
the fat maa, for he Is literally stuffed with good nour
ishment which will tide him over aaely. Tho main
thing I to get away from that fool notion that It la
dangeroua to skip a meal or several meals now and
then. The human stomach, like most other uaef il
piece of mnchlnery. Is none the worse for a rest ono-o
In a while; In fact, the whole metabollam get a better
grip on duty after a brief faat. Of course this Is a
matter for medical supervision, too.
fllnce cold water Increaeee the aecretlon of gastric
Juice when taken at meal-time, the obese with an ab
normal appetite should deny hlmaelf thla boon or the
dyapeptlc; a small drink of hot water half an hour
before tho meal la preferable. If fluid mut be taken.
Anemlo obealty 1 certainly made worse by much water
drinking; plethoric obealty may be Improved by water
drinking.
One good scheme of reducing weight Is to eat but
one kind of food at a meal, although this Is not ad
vlnahle for anemlcs, nor for any one In poor health
By taking a little fat food It ia easier to get along with
a minimum of starches and sugars. Crisp baoon Is
one of the most digestible, satisfying forms ot fat to
eat Freah green vegetables which grow above grodnd.
exoeptlng beans, peas and lentils, are necessary In the
diet, and bread, too, with very little butter. Lean
meat may be taken once or twice a day when other
Items are limited, especially by the anemlo obese.
Twice Told Tales
lord Derby'! Difficult Task.
Lord Derby has Just been 'assigned to th
difficult task of making military enlistment so
popular that the United Kingdom will not have
to resort to conscription. Ills undertaking will
require that he Indue men to enter the army
voluntarily, and to this end he has set about In
a spirit of enthusiasm. Opposition to army serv
ice Is much more general in Great Britain, than
is well understood on the outside, and the re
cruiting offices have not ot late been crowded
The natural aversion ot the Briton to Involun
tary servitude ot any kind Is notorious, and th
talk of conscription is nowhere quietly listened
to. That It Is heard at all is due entirely to th
rttltude assumed by "the better classes," and it
is their persistence In the belief that the
"masses" are in duty bound to battle for British
institutions that has aroused the present threat
'of a storm. Socialists have seized the oppor
tunity thus afforded, and have spread their prop
aganda with more than usual zeal, not that
they are especially averse to fighting, no matter
a hat their professions, as witness their presence
on the firing line, but because the condition In
England gtves them a splendid chance to thwart
the "musters."
Democracy is making a tremendous thrust
ocalnnt toryisra In Great Britain at this time,
end It does not appear likely that the traditions
cf all the past wl'l now be overthrown that an
array of conscripts may be raised. Lord Derby
a ill meet with much of opposition, but more of
success as the prerogatives of the privileged
siowly disappear beneath th rising tide ot tho
icople's power.
The constitution-makers thought they had
fixed it so no Nebraska legislature could be con
trolled by appointing Its members to offices
created by themselves for themselves to fill.
Unfortunately, the constitution-makers did not
figure on a governor who would have no more

maintain quite an army and an army
disciplined and ready for service. These
troops would b. under pay by the United

th. government This would b. a big
saving to th. city and put an end to po

If this plan were adopted each city

of The Bee: The "Cltixens-of-the-World'
movement la rapidly extending Its
work into the belligerent as well as the
seml-neutral nations; for It Is the con
science of the Individual that needa the
awakening; for far too long have nations
and racial groups been Isolated and their
governments have systematically schooled
them to "hate" alt others, and In this
atmonphere of blind, prejudiced patriot
Ism, their poor aerfa are taught to think
that all others are heathen, and that an
"unreserved devotion"-to thla, their gov
ernment (the only on earth), ta the duty
ot every Individual. By such means prodi
gal courts are maintained In splendor and
vain extravagance, , while the gullible
plebeian gives his service and life to per
petuate such vanities.
There Is an International Justice, as
well as each government deigns to main

a nation, "right or wrong," Is a blind
patriotism, and cannot survive, for Jus

Governments that are honey-combed
with selfishness and maintained by se

able to clap the bridle of prejudice upon
their serfs; hitch these martyrs to their
Juggernauts, maintaining their positions

traveaty on Justice; being elevated on a
throne of skulls; but as soon aa th In

as a "citlsen of the world," while the
tyrants and usurpers who have drained
the noblest blood to satisfy their own
voluptuousness continuing their reigns by
pitting nation against nation, will be re
duced to the, rank and forced to dis
gorge what they have glutted the rlgtits

Bee: That Is a very beautiful belt that
was purchased for Joe Stecher by his
Nebraska friends. Nebraska Is Justly

no right to call him a world's champion
when the real world's champion haa never

If some on. would chloroform Frank
Ootch and Farmer Burns we could claim
th. championship for our native son, but
aa long as they are living they will re
main two strong reasons why Stecher
Is not the world's champion. Th. writer
Is an ardent admirer of Joe Stecher, but
cannot see how Stecher can claim the

THE HAUNTED PORCH.
Washington Star.
The rocking chair keep rocking
A the breee come wandering by,
Though empty 1 th summertime hotel.
The little birds are flocking
From the chilly autumn sky
Quite undisturbed around th. porch to
dwell.
And an Influence all ghostly
Seems to gather 'round the pot
As. you recollect the gossip and the game
That were mild and harmless, mostly.
They are faded and forgot
But the rocking chairs keep rocking, Just
the same.
' There's a trace of youthful sighing
in the tremor of the breese
As It hovers, now unwelcomed, through
the place.
There are voices harsh and trying;
There are murmurs III at ease.
Though of human presence there Is not a

With the flowers they have vanished.
With the flowers they'll return.
Those summer throngs that met with
i glad acclaim.
The music has been banished,
Anri tha llahts no longer burn.
But the rocking chairs keep rocking, just
