The voting of bonds for a bride across the Missouri river at Yankton and the building of a fhort connecting railroad north revives the old hope of Omaha for an entry into that trade ter ritory, a large portion of which Is naturally tributary to this city. The efforts to gain ac cess to this field have been many, dating back to the time when Omaha was little more than a village and the old Omaha Northwestern was chartered, and they have been continued Inter mittently since. West Tjf the Missouri river railroad development hss opened up the field to Omaha, but all traffic from east of the river has been forced to pass through Btoux City to reach Omaha, and the handicap of increased distance and indirect rail communication has virtually shut Omaha out The project now under consideration gives more promise of fruition than its predecessors. In the first place, it involves no great financial outlay, for roads leading from Omaha already tap the country across the river from Yankton, and with lines already built into that city and north, a few miles of new road will connect up with a network of lines spreading over the en tire territory. A clearer appreciation of the value of this opening probably would have solved the problem long ago, but let us hope tbat the present project will not be allowed to lag. The Case of the Ancona. More of the details must be known of the blnking of the Ital'an liner "Ancona" before tiny safe conclusion can be reached as to its justification or wantonness. If another passen ger ship, carrying helpless women and children, as well as men, baa been torpedoed and sunk without warning and without opportunity to tcke off the noncombatants, a serious situation ,vlll be presented, and more serious to us If lives of American citizens have been needlessly socriflced. If, on the other hand, the boat waa destroyed "according to rule," while the horror and inhumanity is no less, the possibility of in ternational complications may be avoided. Ai a "Friend of the Court." With due permission first obtained, a brief by E. J. Hainer as a "friend of the court" has been filed in the case pending before the su preme Judges to determine whether Nebraska's constitutional provision rquirlng a specific leg islative appropriation for the expenditure of pub lic money means what it says. As the Judges doubtless want light, they can have no objection to having other "friends of the court" volunteer their Ideas In answer to the propositions ad vanced by Mr. Hainer. In point of fact, what he asks Is that the constitution bo temporarily annulled, because upholding It might force the ' fire commission, and the food, drug, dairy and cil commissions to wholly suspend operations In the Interim between September 1 and the next session of the legislature." The fault with this argument Is that the basic assumption is entirely unwarranted, for there is nothing what ever to prevent these commissions continuing to do their work and asking for a deficiency ap propriation from the next legislature. While we do not advocate a special legislative session to meet the emergency, because we do not think it necessary, other states, where legislatures have bungled appropriations, have frequently reconvened their law-makers to do the work over again, rather than put their constitutions In the same class with a "scrap of paper." Illi nois, for example, Is said to be facing such a situation right this minute, but no "friend of the court" in that state seems to have suggested that the defective law be declared valid notwith standing, because failure to get the money out of the treasury might threaten the continuity of the salaries of the officeholders concerned. In his brief Mr. Hainer further insists that the collections from these state Inspection fees constitute a "trust fund" to pay the expenses of the particular department of the state govern ment, and, therefore, can be drawn on without legislative authority. But they constitute so r ore of a trust fund than do the collections of the state university in the form of student fees, or of the secretary of state in the form of reg- ltratlon fees, or of the clerk of the supreme c.urt In the form of docketing fees and court costs. The constitution and laws of Nebraska contemplate turning Into the state treasury all these collections and drawing the money out In the regular order. But If these provisions are to become dead letters every time a democratic legislature goes to sleep or falls down, they may as well be expunged altogether. Nebraaka Crop Values. What appears to be a conservative estimate of the value of four of Nebraska's loading crops corn, wheat, oats and hay places the total at $236,781,903, computed on values of 60 cents per bushel for merchantable corn, halt that amount for soft corn, 75 cents for wheat, 30 cents for oats, $7 per ton for alfalfa hay and Id and $7 per ton for wild and tame hay. Prices being paid out in the state for these staples show them to be, if anything, below the average, and the total crop yield Is computed on a basis which appears to be able to bear the test of an alysis. A crop of such volume also means that the percentage consumed on the farm as feed for stock used in farm operation Is less than In smaller crop years, though, of course, the actual amount Is a fairly stable quantity year by year, and the remainder which will be converted Into cash in the shape of grain or meat products muat be greatly In excess of the normal. In contrast with the big cotton crop of the south last year there Is a ready market at fair prices for every dollar's worth of Nebraska's product, and what this means In a business way would be difficult to compute, and its Influence Is more than local, for the great grain belt of which Nebraska Is a prominent portion has been the steadying In fluence on the commerce of the nation and the t right spot In days of depression. This great production of agricultural staples which all the world must have Is the key to the business ac tivity in Omaha and throughout Nebraska. It has been shown conclusively by a pre arranged war game that New York harbor Is l ot In a state of preparedness. Theoretically a hostile fleet shot up Sandy Hook, smashed Coney Island, sunk Governor's, Island, leveled Fort Wadsworth and made a dust heap of Man hattan's skyscrapers.

WHETHER proMMtlon rrohiblta or not there Is a very rood ' chance that the proposed national amendment advocated by the prohibitionists will be brought to a. vote In congress this year. Leading democratic politicians ara said to favor a vota on grounds of political expedlnncey, the Idea being to eliminate the liquor question from tha national cam paign of 1310 and thua to avoid poeaible embarrass ment on this score. No other man than tha new ma jority leader of tha house. Claude Kltchln of North Carolina, it la aald. will Introduce the old Hobson amendment In case Mr. Kltrhln flnda It Inadvisable at the last moment to perform this task for tha "drys," they will probably fall back upon Chairman Webb of the Judiciary committee. Both Webb and Kltrhln are strong prohibitionist and both are ad ministration men. It la asserted that tha whisky Interests will not op pose the resolution aa etubbornly as they did last year, but will save their powder for, tha fight In the states against the ratification of the amendment. The liquor Interests believe they can postpone the nnei adoption of the prohibition amendment for ao many years that It will become a forgotten Issue. Ever since the the defeat of the Hobson amend- mn nr tKe officials nf tha Antl-SaloOn DeaCUS of America have been busy lining up votes to put tha mrasure through the house at tha coming session. Now at laat they believe they have tha votea. Front sources close to the league It was learned recently that It will concentrate Its efforts In the Sixty-fourth congress upon two projects. One la the Hobson amendment, and the other la a measure to maao mo District of Columbia prohibition territory. The league bellevea It will be able to put both measures through. Its officers reel that tha real right lies in ine noua-j. where the margin Is close. In tha senate they claim to have more than two-thirds majority. It will require some maneuvering to get the Dis trict of Columbia prohibition measure before congress. Tha first move will be to get It favorably reported by the district committee, but tfct committee la evenly divided on tha wet and dry question and last year the wets managed to prevent the committee from reporting such a measure. It Is possible, however, to tack the district measure either on the district ap propriation bill or on to any other general supply measure which goes through congress. Furthermore, failure to get favorable action tn the house will not prevent the prohibitionists from taking It up in the senate and thereby getting It back In the house In the form of a senate amendment that can be taken from the committee and disposed of by tha whole house. The prohibition leaders assert that the national prohibition amndment will go through tha house and senate easily. They say that many of the hold-overs who voted wet last year have heard from their districts and are now repentant and ready to vote "dry" at the first opportunity. Also, they say that a canvass of the new members, mostly republicans, shows an overwhelming sentiment among them In favor of sub mitting the question to the states tn order to get It out of congress once and for all. These leaders have been paying close attention to the activities of the opposition and have concluded that the liquor Inter ests have about reached the point where they do not want any further discuasion of the liquor question In congress. Anti-Saloon league officials think that If the amendment la once put through congress It will be ratified by three-fourths of the states within a few years. The liquor Interests take an opposite vlow. It la pointed out that once an amendment la ac tually submitted to the states, It la always before them until adopted. Thus, It is never formally re jected In the sense that more than one-quarter of the states reject It at one time, because the action of the legislature can be reversed on subsequent oc casion!. Through the process of elimination, the "drys" believe they can soon concentrate the liquor fight In a few states. It ls( already conceded that the prohibitionists will be able to gat their measure reported by the Judiciary committee, and the liquor Interests also oonoeda that most of the democ ratio house leaders are In favor of national prohibition.

IO.-T0 the Editor of The Bee: When after the civil war Andrew Johnson was at war with congress over his plan of reconstructing the seceding states, "my policy." he called It old Zaciiariah Chandler, United States senator from Michigan, said President Johnson had no business to have a policy that the reconstruction of the southern statea was a matter that belonged to con gress and not to the president In a similar may President Wilson has no business to have a policy as to "pre paredness." If he thought the country was not in a proper state of defense he might. If he saw fit, properly call the at tention of congress to the situation and recommend that the country be put In a state of defense, but he has no right to go before the country and before con gress with a detailed plan, and much less has he a right to attempt to make such a plan an "administration" measure and force It through congress, as we have a right to believe he Intends to try to do. uch work is revolutionary. It Is the business of the president to execute the laws, not to make them. If this matter of preparedness were to be left to the free action of congress, aa It should be. how does President Wilson know that some congressman, or senator. If It were thought beat to do anything at all, might not propose a better plan of national de fense than his own? I think I have a better plan myself, and to make a brief presentation of It la the purpose of this communication. What I propose Is that the United Statea should enter Into a defensive naval alliance with England. I suggest as to the main feature of such an alliance, that It should provide: 1. That the combined naval forces of the two powers shoujd be used to prevent an attack upon either, or any of their colo nies or dependencies. 1 That no attack from tha sea upon any country of the western hemisphere should be permitted. 1 That after the conclusion of peace In Europe, England should not add to tha strength of its navy, and that the United etates should not add to the strength of Its navy after It had been brought up to a point something like approaching that of England, as might be agreed. 4. That no other nation should be per mitted to materially Increase Its naval strength, standing notice being given that any new war vessel, or others in Its place, would be destroyed on sight. 6. That Franca, Italy, Japan and other nations, as might be agreed, should be permitted to become parties to the alli ance If they wished, sharing Its benefits and responsibilities on equal terms. With such an alliance In existence the parties to It would be absolutely secure against attack from the sea. We should not ony be spared the enormous expense of putting ourselves in a state of defense against the whole earth, but would not need even the regular army that we now have. An army of ,000 men for guard and escort duty and dress parade would be enough; and no national guards or organised militia would be required, ex cept as each state might determine for itself with a view to preserving order within its own borders. England and all Its colonies, with the exception of India and Egypt, being safe from attack from foreign foes, could disband Its armies (after this war is over) and devote all its energies to the arts of peace, as It would be only too glad to do, and re cuperating from the effects of this ter rible war. It will be urged that such an alliance Is against the traditional policy of this country. Admitted. But it does not fol low that because Washington's advice against permanent alliances has been good up to this day. It la to be good al ways. Conditions have changed beyond even the wildest flights of the Imagina tion, and we should pursue such a course as sound Judgment dictates as to what la beat under these changed conditions. It will be said that such an alliance would be bitterly opposed by, both Irish Americana and German-Americans. By some, yes, but I think not necessarily by the great majority of them, who, I be lieve, are at heart really good and true Americans. President Wilson's schema of prepared ness would be certain to be a failure for present purposes, and would even Invite the attacks It is Intended to shield us from. For If any European power Is to attack us It would be Immediately after this war, and. In all reason, before we could possibly put ourselves In a state of defense; and tha same would be true of Japan. Either a European power or Japan desiring to make war on us could hardly be expected to be so polite and considerate of our Interests as to watt until we were' fully armed. For more than 100 years, with a boun dary Una between them of more than 8.000 miles, the United States and England have lived at peaoe, neither having a fort or battleship, a soldier or gun to use against the other; neither has anything to fear from the other; both love liberty and hate military power, and In such an alliance each has everything to gain and nothing to lose. Such an alliance would be Invincible; It would mean the absolute and permanent peace of half the civilised world, and would take tha world mora than half way on the road to the longed for goal of universal peace.
