How to Speed Up the Good Roads Morement.
The Automobile club aid the Commercial
club have been busy for some time working on
a plan looking toward systematic road improve
ment throughout the entire state, under a Kate
highway commission or ome similar authority.
and it is iindcrtood that this subject i to be
br6tight up at the forthcoming meeting of the
State Anociition of Commercial clubs.
The problem of good road in the nature of
thing cannot be successfully handled a a local
matter, a we have up to this time attempted to
handle it. Wherever it has been atisfactoriIy
solved it hi been done only by taking it up in
larger units and areas, usually the whole state,
It I plain that Nebraska i now ready to make
a definite tep forward for good road and it
come to a question of procedure after the plan
is agreed upon. Lnactment into legislation
could be materially speeded up by putting the
proposal in the form of an initiative measure
and submitting it for popular approval at the
coming fll election. Although the time is short
to sign up a petition with the name of 26,0(10
qualified voter within the. limit of July I, next,
it i quite possible with the help of the variou
organization already at hand.
The advantage of this method would be that
the law, if ratified, would be at once effective,
while, at best, a bill patted by the legislature
would not become operative until the following
spring, and, more probably, until July I of next
year. F.ven then legislative action, unlet tarry
ing the emergency clauie, would be ibject to
be hung up another two year by a referendum
appeal. Obviously, therefore, the' procedure by
initiative would give much quicker reult and
probably at outlay of no greater effort.
Germany' Cabinet Upheaval,
Report of a cabinet crist in Germany are
neither sensational nor alarming, although the
story will likely be seized upon to create both
sensation and alarm. The rumored retirement of
Gottlieb von Jagow from the ministry for foreign
affairs i the most important feature of the new.
Von Jagow handled the diplomatic rein during
the "year of converatioii" over most serious
issue with the United States, which wa critical
many timet, and which wa finally allayed, if
not entirely solved, by the grace and adept
phrasing adopted by the German foreign minis
ter in hi latest communication, Kven hi most
acute critic admit that Von Jagow did well.
Prince von liuelow, former chancellor of the
empire, who is picked by the gossips to succeed
to the foreign office, i alto a diplomat of tried
ability, and in line with etlabhthed German
polity, If the change i made it will be in head
and not in purpose or method.
Germany' cabinet has lasted better than any
of the other under the stress of war. Lnglaud,
Auttria, Italy, France and Kutsia have each un
dergone changes iu cabinet personnel, and to
some extent policies have been altered, while the
German have adhered clotely to what are now
known to be we ll-reasoned-out plan. Out even
the German cabinet it amenable to popular pres
sure, which sometimes is irresistible, and during
war is very difficult to withstand. To hold out
against it the minstry must be unusually strong
or uncommonly successful.
In no other instance of cabinet change ha
the course of the war been eriously affected, and
it probably won't be in this.
A Charge That Muit Be Met,
It is greatly to be feared (hat the noble ambi
tion of Honorable Arthur F, Mullen, one time
attoriiey-geiieral-for-a-little-while and now mem-
iirr-ricci lor iNcurasKa oi tne democratic na
tional committee, to be made national chairman
and placed iu charge of the campaign for the re
election of President Wilson, ha been hit amid
ships, The impression was gaining ground,
through spontaneous Pro Bono Publico commu
nications and volunteered newspaper bouquet,
that the boom for a Nebraska head of the demo
cratic nation! committee was just getting a good
start when, behold, come this broadside in the
Commoner over the signature of its editor, V. J.
Bryan:
"There i tome talk of bred Lynch of Min
nesota for democratic national chairman, and
it i even whispered that Arthur Mullen, the
new lyemher from Nebraska, has his eye on
the position. But surely the committee would
not telect either of these novices iu machine
politic when it can command the services of
Roger Sullivan, past master in the art of cor
porate domination, fresh from his victories in
the great state of Illinois. If the party 'is to be
officered by Wall street, the llcst that Wall
street hat is none too good "
Fortunately, forewarned is forearmed. We
were almost on the point of preparing a congrat
ulatory message to Chairman Mullen upon the
great distinction about lo be concurred on him,
but now we will have to put it in cold storage
marked "hold" until Mr. Mullen proves that, no
matter how true the other charges may be, he at
the worst it no "novice."

THE GAME OF LIFE.
Anonymous
Thla life la but a game nf cards,
Whb-h morula have to learn.
Each ehufflr-e and deaie the pack,
And each a trump doth turn.
Home bring a high card to the lop,
And others bring a low,
Home hold a hand nulte fliinh of trump,
While other none van show,
lorn, ahuffle with s practiced hand,
And pB'-k the caroe wirh care,
And so ihey know that they ara dealt
Where all Ihe leadera are.
Thua folke are mede the dupea of rnguce,
While rogiire each mher cheat j ,
And lie l very wlee Indeed I
vvno never rnecta ncirai.
When pleylng, anme throw out the sea.
The counting cards lo save,
dome play Ihe deuce and eome Ihe ten,
Jlut many play the knave,
i
Home nlo for money inm for fun-
And eome for worldly fame,
But not until the ganie'e iilnyed nut '
Can thry fount upon ihelr gain.
When liearte are trumpa we play for love, i
And ppaeur ruiea ii.e notjr,
No lliouahia of sorrow check our Joy
In beauty a rosy bower.
We alng. we dance, sweat veiera make,
Our card si random t'Ur.
And while tine trump remains at lop
Our game's a holiday,
When diamonds thence tn crown tha top, '
The players sink lhlr gold,
And hi'avy sunn are ii-t and won
Ity gambler young and old.
Intent on winning, each hie guma
I t li watch with oaser y,
How he may us" bia iiHKiilmr'e cards,
And beat tlicm nn the sly.
When cltilie are irumpe, look out for war,
On ncnuu and on land,
For bloody horrors always enma I
When club are held In hsnd. ! c
Then live ar slaked. Instead of gold,
I h dogs of war ar fred
In our dar country, snd w sea
That dull have got the lead,
!,! gam of sil. la when th epada
Is turned by band uf time,
lie alwsvs donla Ilia ciosln game
in evnry axe ami ciune, ,
No matter how much ech man wins, r
Dr how much each man vee, 1
The spade will finish up Ilia gams f
And dig th gnmlileri giavea.

Practical Economy
Baking powders made from alum or
phosphate may be bought for a trifle less
than Royal Baking Powder, which fa made
from cream of tartar, derived from grapes.
Alum powders are not only cheap, but
they differ greatly in leavening power.
If a cheap baking powder is used for a
fine cake and the cake turns out a failure
there is a waste of costly materials worth
more than a whole can of the cheap bak
ing powder.
Royal Baking Powder produces the
finest food, and its use therefore, results In
an actual saving.
