Conerring on Appropriation.
New from Washington Is to the effect the
president Is conferring with leaders In congress
vllh a view to aystematltlng the appropriations
at the coming session. That th system in
vogue is wasteful Is apparent to even' casual
ttudents, and our methods never cease to as
tonish foreign statesmen. Under ordinary prac
tice the appropriations are made up by various
committees without any efficient co-operatton,
and after congressional logrolling has added to
the extravagance of committees the bill bear
little or no relation to prospective revenue and
the garment Is cut without regard to cloth
measurements. The budget, system Is recog
rized by students of government to be the scien
tific method of appropriation, but if this cannot
be obtained ew-operstlon of house leaders, where
nil appropriation originate, may secure an ap
t roach to economy and efficiency, and If the
liesldent can bring tbla about be will have per
formed an Important service. The condition of
the treasury, with a deficit staring the admlnls
Itatlon In the face and extraordinary appropria
tions for the defense program coming up, econ
tmy Is more than ever necessary and should
fiov a factor In enabling those who believe In
Governmental economy to accomplish their pur
pose. It would be expecting too much, how
ever, lo see the pork barrel eliminated alto
Mtber, but every little helps when every scoop
into the money bins scrapes close to the bottom.
Reminder of Old Day.
The heading, "Rich Placer Strike In Hills,"
must bring back to old-timers memories of other
:ys, of the stampedes which followed each such
Announcement, when the wilderness suddenly
resounded with the voices of struggling and
t opefiil humanity, dance halls, saloons and gam
bling places sprung up where but a few days
before only the wild creatures of nature held
fcway, where some hopes were realized and those
cf the many were blasted, only to revive again
vlth the ssine announcement from another
quarter. The placer In those days was the poor
man's game, for the capital required was only
a meager grub stake, a pick, shovel, pan and a
tew simple Implements, backed by courage,
trawn and a hope that never faltered. What a
fuscinatlng story a collaboration of those new
l oper accounts of the old mining days would be.
If all those dreams of gold had been realized
(he now precious metal would be so common
that few would worship at its shrine.

By the ratification of the treaty between the
I nlted State and Haiti by the senate of that
country the United States may acquire another

maining portion of the same island, are already
similarly supervised, and Nlcaraugua and Cuba
to a less extent are subject to supervisory con
trol by this government. Up to date the United
states ha been fairly successful in administer
ing the fiscal affair of these turbulent countries
and also In substituting order and quiet for the
turmoil of continual revolutions, but If this gov
ernment Is to undertake similar missions in all
the land on thi hemisphere, where revolution

Enforced Depotitt by Publio Service Patron.
The Indianapolis News comments upon a
ruling recently made by the California State
Kutlroad commission ar of much interest to that
city, and we may sdd also of equal Interest to
public service patrons in Omaha as well. The
California commission, so we are told, has swept
i way completely the. existing system by which
V ibltc utility companies required deposits from
consumer to guaranty payment of bills, care of
tqulpment, etc. By the commission's decision
the companies ar required to return the de
posit or to apply them upon current bill, and
their right to discontinue service for nonpay
lientiof disputed bills Is denied. "To compel
a customer to pay an excessive bill," declare
th commission, "Is manifestly unfair and un
just; no utility company has the right to be th
Judge in It own cas. as at present."
Th Indianapolis paper call attention to th
fact that th water company there may require
4 2,000 consumers to deposit $10 each in its
custody, which would give tt the free use of J
ever $400,000 of other people's money, and
nor than that, provide a leverage for enforc
ing all sorts of arbitrary exaction. The strange
thing I that bar In Omaha th only public
hervlce that I permitted to demand deposits
and to hav th whip-hand in all disputes Is the
diubltcly-owned utility, whose patrons apparently
I k.ve no recourse.
'Let the Pnblio Enow.
Ever since the president gave out his plan
fur preparing the country for defense there ha
been a demand that the recommendation of the
army general staff be also made public, aa it
vii generally understood that the president
turned down certain recommendations of th
staff. Secretary Garrison of th War depart
ment haa now added hi appeal and properly
urge that tbla Is a matter In which the entire
ration is deeply Interested, and the presumption
l that the general staff, with It technical
knowledge, ahould hav Ideas at least worth
consideration. That the public ha limited
knowledge of military affair la In a large meas
ure true, but it Is Just as captble of passing
Judgment on the army report a oa the presi
dent' plan. Th publio must bear the burden
cf Increased army and navy expenditure and
congressional action must hav popular support
to carry th measure through.
That the army plan I more xteastv and
expensive than tb publio would approve 1
probably true, but so far aa It deals with th sci
entific conduct of war or preparation for th
sum I mora likely to b based on correct prln
tlples and capable of effective execution than on
eiolved by civilians. Th reason for withhold
ing any official recommendation from the pub
lic are not obvious, and the very fact of its being
It-Id back increases the desire to know, though
publication may possibly cause people to wonder
what all th secrecy was about.
A Mesage for the Boy
from Cardinal Gibbons
O. a. KaUaad La Tba Aaaarleaa oy.
AT BALTIMORE find old man borded the train. A
h walked alowly, very slowly, down the aile.
head turned to follow hi progreaa and people
touched each other and whispered. A the old man
paaacd. It could be seen that under his tall allk hat
he wore something not usually worn by old gentlemen
riding on train, for, showing below the rim of th
hat waa a line of vivid acarlet.
Th porter, more than ordinarily aollcltou. asalated
th old gentleman Into hla cbalr. Then the old gentle
man removed hla hat and he waa wearing a tiny,
round scarlet cap!
Now, there are only three men among all the hun
dred million of Inhabltanta In the United State mho
ere Permitted to wear uch a cap. It 1 a mark ol
honor, of distinction, of exalted poaltlon the badge,
of a cardinal of the Roman Catholic church. The
old gentleman waa Hla Eminence, Jamea Cardinal
Olbbons. Arrhblahop of Baltimore.
Cardinal Gtbbona aettled hi a pa re frame comfort
ably and opened hla newspaper Juat like any ordinary
traveler. Above the top of hi chair showed that
flaah of acarlet, aroualng curloclty. What aort oT a
man waa this J a me Cardinal Olhnona? How did ills
voice sound? What did his amlle look like? Whut
would he aay if ddreed? It waa a curiosity that
would he shared by every boy in America If he cpuld
It In that oar and watch. Ho I decided to find out
for him.
The porter carried my card to Ills Eminence; re
turned Immediately, grinning ao that every one of hli
thirty-two whit Ueth glittered Joyously.
"He aay aura, aah. Ha say ha be glad to talk wlf
you."
X think that waa characteristic of Cardinal Gib
bons that ba would b glad to talk to 'me, or to any
casual traveler who aaked the privilege, for Cardinal
Glbbona I a man who love men. who studlea men,
who like to talk to and understand and sympathise
with men.
Ho I walked down to hla aide.
Ha looked up and smiled. That Is Important. Per
haps you have Been plcturee of th Cardinal they are
grave, very dignified, a trifle austere. They do not
how tha Cardinal of the amlle. Right away any boy
would have known Hla Eminence wa a man who
wanted to know, th aort of man who I valuable to
boy as a friend and aa a companion. Tha Cardinal
smiled, and hla grey eye twinkled a ha extended
hla hand. '
"Tou work with boy?" he laid. "That I a fine
thing on of the finest thlnga. You muat be very
glad your work Is with boys. Won t you ait down?"
His fare became grave, thoughtful.
"I suppose you would like to have me say some
thing to your boys, la that it?"
"The boys would appreciate It very much if you
would," I told him.
Then he began to apeak. As ha spoke watched hU
face, particularly those grey-blue eyea with the
shrewd, wlae, kindly line about them. I watched tha
expression come and go In those eyea aa tha Card4nal
eent hla measage to you. They are not young eyes
but they are not old eye. They are eyes that have
aoen many wonderful Jhtng. many sad thinga, many
glorloua thlnga and hav remembered everything and
stored It away to ba used. To be uaed for tha benefit
of mankind.
"ft'a an old. old aaylng that the boy la the father
of tha man." said the Cardinal, "but I wonder If
boy have aver atopped to wonder what it mean, it
mean that the boy 1 tha moat Important thing In the
world. Think of that Let m have th boy to work
with and train and I don't care who look after the
reat of the world for In a few year the boy will be
the rest of world. The boys of today are tha man
with reaponsltiillUea the men who are doing big thlnga
to-morrow. They ahould remember that"
Tha Cardinal laid hla alender hand on my knee.
"What la aucoesa In lifer' he aaked, and than
answered hla own question, "Suocesa la nothing moro
nor lea than doing well th thlnga we hav to do
every day. Suoce la duty performed that la all.
There can ba no greater aucoeaa than that Tha boy
who does every day tha little thing ha is aet to do,
and doea them' well, haa aucceeded. When he becomes
a man he la atlll a aucoeaa If ha performs hla every
day tasks and dutlea faithfully. There may be no
fame, no Bounding of trumpets for him. but he Is a
success."
Now ha smiled again, his eyes twinkled almost
mischievously.
"Fame la an accident, anyhow," he said, "It doesn t
matter. Fame la pleasant, but, after all, la It a bit
mora pleaeant to b famous than to be a common
man. unknown, perhaps, but with knowledge that tha
duties that hav lain before him hav been doner'
"What qualties. Cardinal Glbbona, do you consider
most detflrabl In a boy? What qualtlee show him
to have real promlee for th futuraT
Faithfulness, plodding- perseverance, persletefice tn
doing whatever la aet for him to do. These thing
will gain, him success where genius would fall unless
It la that sort of genlua which la nothtng more than
Infinite hard work. That la tha best genlua hard,
steady, careful work. It Is the real genius.
"I wish every boy could understand that. I wish
every boy could know that success does not mean
fame or wealth, or that tha world should aet to talking
about you. I wish every boy could know, and believe,
that the way to success la by plodding effort One
plodding, hard-working, faithful boy Is worth to tba
world much mora than tha boy with flash of genlua.
Tha boy who will plod, plod, plod, who will concentrate
hla effort, ia on tha surest road fo aucceas."
Twice Told Tales
What'a lm m Tfaaaa.
Tha lawyer waa in hla private office whan th
c'.fUe boy brought tn a card. The lawyer took It and
after one look at It frowned and then smiled. Tha
Inscription on It read: Mr. Roller fckatea.
"Ia it a pair or only one?" he Inquired.
"What, sir?" reanonded the boy, not seeing- the
point, of courae.
"Thafe all right. Bring him tn."
The caller followed ahortly and before the lawyer
could put him on the atand he volunteered hi testi
mony. II had observed that the lawyer still held hi
.sard In hla hand.
"Pardon me," he said, smiling broadly and nod
ding toward th card, "but I'm not to blame for It
My father s nam was Pkatea and my mother's name
waa Roller,, and they gav me my mother's family
name. That waa sixty odd years ago, and there were
no other roller skatea tn this country at that time."
The lawyer cheerfully accepted hla apology and
alao a comfortable retaining fee ere the caller skated
away. Judge.

COUNCIL BLL'FFS, Ia.. Nov. iS.-To
the Editor of The Uce: I am from Mis
souri and the Ozark mountains, and have
been wondering where Iowa country
school teachers get their education. Li
a country district not far from Council
Bluffs the pupils are taught that It is a
diegrare to be Mrs. Jones' hired girl.
Maybe it Is I don't know. Perhaps we
should all fall down on our knees when
we meet a country school teacher. Tee!
t hadn't thought of It before, but I think
perhaps wa ahould. This came teacher
tries to teach housekeeping. One of the
text books says. "One should wear a
tub dress while working In the kitchen."
One of the children asked this well-informed
teacher the definition for tub
dress, and he said, "It wna some kind of
loose sack ar something.'
I wish he would write to "Advice for
the lovelorn," and ask the moaning cf
tub dress. A ions sack or something
may be all right for him to wear In the
kitchen, but Mrs. Jones' hired girl very
much prefers something neater. As for
being Mr. Jones' hired girl, I am one.
My wage are 8 a week. I have a good
room with steam heat, and electric lights.
I don't do any washing, not even my
own. I"d6n"t find mv work too hard, or
my hours too long. I have plenty to eat
of the best goods tn the city. I hf-e
all my evenings off If I want them; also
Thursday afternoons and Saturday after
noons and evenings. I have time to sew,
to read good books, to entertain my
friends, to go to the movies and to
church Sunday evenings. My Job will
last as long as I make it and I wouldn't
trade Jobs with honorable country school
teachers for a dollar.

HILVKR CRKF.K. Neb.. Nov. I8.-T0
the Editor of The Bee: From Inst Sun
day's Bee It appears that while Rev. Dr.
Frederick F. Jtouse of the First Congre
gational church of Omaha does not be
lieve the Bible account of creation, yet
he declares that in his future preaching
he will lay expeclal strew on redemption.
But If the Bible story of creation is not
true, how can Dr. Rouse believe. If he
does believe, that other equally absurd
story wherein It appears that a snake
crawled throunh a garden fence, or
mnybe ant up on the top rail, and en
tered into conversation with a woman,
and that Adam and Eve committed a
grlevotifl s'n notwithstanding they did
not know the difference between right
and wrong?
Since Adam, as we ore told, did not
know good from evil, he certainly could
not have known there waa anything
wrong iti enttng fruit that Ood had told
him not to eat; therefore Incurred no
guilt In the art of disobedience and hence
did not "fall."
If, then, there was no "fall." there was
surely no need of any redeemer and Dr.
House's preaching of redemption Is
vain. As a matter of fact there could
not have teen any redeemer because
there was nothing to he redeemed, and
It necessarily follows Hat the story of
the birth, suffering and death of Christ,
however interesting and affecting It may
be, is not true
Now, take notice that as to the au
thenticity of the Bible account of crea
tion. I at this time neither affirm nor
deny . I simply undertake to show, as I
think I have shown, that if, aa Dr. Rouse
contends, that story is not true then that
other story of the fall of man fairly goes
with it and Is not true; that the bottom
falls out of Christianity, and that the
whole Christian system tumbles Into ab
solute ruin. CHARLES WOOSTER.

He Waa Good Dog;.
SOUTH BIDE. OMAHA, Nov. I8.-T0
tha Editor of Tha Baa: It la claimed
that animals have no soul. That may be
true, but I have seen animal that I
thought war much mora deserving of a
soul and of a future Ufa than aoma peo
ple I have seen in my time.
If my good 10-year-old Gordon aetter
dog t-at died on Tueaday of thla week is
hot entitled to a future existence, then
avan few people are entitled to It, for
though wa did notary to make a aped at
pat of him avid did not try to teach him
many things, yet ha was ao good and so
Intelligent that he seemed mora like a
child than a dog. When I would get up
In the morning he held up hla right paw
to snake handa with me. Whan I wouhL
go to my meals at noon and in tha even
ing he would alwaya be out in the front
yard to meet me and frequently would
coma a block or two to meet me and al
ways held up his paw to shake hands,
but. when I would b leaving homo even
for a few hours, he refused to hak
hands with ma goodbye
It aeema to me that a dog that will do
that way haa more than animal Instinct
to tell htm Just when I would be coming
home and when to come to meet me.
When I was leaving home on Tuesday
afternoor less than two hours before he
died from pleurisy, he wagged his tail
snd held kp hia right paw for ma to
hak hands goodbye, a thing he had
never dona befora. Was it simply lnttl.ict
that told htm it was hla last goodbye to
rue? I felt that it waa his last, for ha
waa so bad off.
W did not try to make him affectl la
st e, but It Is seldom that a human being
ahows a much affection aa that dog
showed toffard us. Even when I would
scold him or slap him for som little of
fense ha would aneak up behind ma and
try to lick my handa to make up again.
If he would aea aomeone go along w Ith
a gun. or spad. or hoe, or anything over
their shoulder h would bark at them
furtnudy because he thought anything
carried over th shoulder wa a gun. Ha
seemed to knew anyone that dkl not luxe
doga and ha eoetned to take delight tn
barking at them Just to spite then, for
he would net bits, even though a member

A PLEA FOR POLAND.
Minna Irving, In Leslie's.
The snow that over Poland lies
Is darkly stained with red,
The wind that over Poland sighs
Rrings broken cries for bread.
Where Padercwski's music rose.
And Kosciusko fell.
Are heRgars waiting In the snows
A piteous tale to tell.
Her homes are ground to dust beneath
The conqueror's iron heel,
The wolf of famine bares his teeth
Beside the naked Fteel.
Phe cradles on her wasted breast
A babo too weak to feed;
Arlae! oh. Empire of the West.
And help her In her need.
The love of Freedom In the blood
Of Poland ever runs.
And links her o'er the briny flood
To Freedom's favored sons.
So from the plenty we command
O! let us now display
The spirit of the open hand.
And smooth her troubled way.

Safe Home Matches are
