Subscribed in my pretenoe and sworn to before me this Id day of Mey, llt. ROBERT HUNTER, Notary Public, Subscribers leaving the city temporarily should havt the Bee mailed to them. Ad dress will be changed at often at requested. Pretty soon there'll be a demand for a safe and sane Memorial day, too. You must admit, though, that the ttsge man agement for the colonel is au fait. Maybe the senator will let go of that post office appointment after the St. Louis convention. Omaha will be glad to sre Mr. Calvin again, and hopes that he will bring a new depot with him. Somebody can help the democrat! out of a dilemma by suggesting a way to increase the rev enue without increasing taxes. After all is said and done, the process of sav ing the country cannot be guaranteed unless Ne braska' favorite sons for vice president are con scripted as assistant engineers. Reports indicate that the reorganized Serbian army will soon get in touch with the Bulgars on the plains of Macedonia. In that event the Mace donian cry of old will be as a whisper to a fog horn. .,, .! wsj unkind of someone to remind our good friend (by ptrniit.ioti) Edgar Howard that both Dan Stephens and the- senator were elected be cause of him. The scoffer might have said in spite of. A million-dollar raise in the valuation of the railroads in Nebraska doesn't mean much, but it will be a mighty good excuse for the democrat when they begin to explain high tax rates to the farmers next fall. Now the complaint comes from West Virginia that election rolls in democratic districts are en cumbered with the names of dogs, mules, and dead and gone voters. Well, the party has to get votes somewhere. British authorities continue pressing home the mobilization of American securities held by the country's investors. These precious holdings not only fortify exchange rates, but also provide hangars for launching silver bullets later on. With Serbs and Anglo-French troops on one section of Greece and Bulgars and Teutons on the other, and closing in for death grips, the Gre cian government steadily nears an inglorious po rtion "between the devil and the deep sea." One of the tasks put up to women a part pf "clean up America" campaign, is to diveM politics of graft. The author of the job evi dently thinks American women love lite-long en gagements. He i entitled to another guess. The upset price for the Western Pacific rail road is fwed by the court at $18,lM)Q,()0O.

The school teacher who told her class that the flag is "but a piece of bunting," and explained that she meant in relation to human life, made a serious mistake. Human life is sacred, but to be of savor it must be of service; mere existence is not living. To eagerly enjoy the pleasures of life and shirk its responsibilities is not living. Even if it were so, to have those pleasures and to be permitted to enjoy them, human lives must blend into something intangible but possessed of force and vitality. That something is government. In the United States this government is "of the peo ple, by the people, and for the people." To main tain it requires the constant care of the people all the time, and a devotion to it that knows no limit. War is terrible in any of its manifestations, but there are things worse than war. Life devoid of liberty, even though existence be softened by luxuries and comforts, loses its value. It has no fuller meaning than the life of a pampered pet. Our government gives us liberty, freedom of speech, of thought and action, and preserves us safe in the exercise of that liberty. And the flag is the emblem of that government. This teacher should revise her philosophy. Our flag doe not represent war, or force, but stands for the most perfect form of government yet known to man. It may be of silk, or of bunting, or of cotton, or printed on paper, it matters not the substance of which it ia composed; the flag of the United States stands for great ideas, great principles, involving and supporting human free dom in all its aspects. And this idea is more precious than many lives, for it is the life of all the race. School teachers, bove all other citizens, should know what the American flag stands for. Waiting- for President Calvin. When President Calvin of the Union Pacific comes to Omaha to take up his duties, he will find one very important question waiting for him. It is the new union depot. Omaha has outgrown its present depot facili ties. Especially lacking in all the essentials of a great terminal station is the plant used by the Union Pacific and its connecting lines. This is so clear to all that argument on the point is need less. In the ordinary course of events, the rail roads must expand their station accommodations in Omaha in order that they may properly care for a traffic that is continually increasing. The Union Pacific, as landlord for the Iowa roads that cross its bridge, is primarily respon sible for the condition that exists, and should lead off in any move for improvement. The other great lines centering in Omaha will not long demur at the project, if the Overland takes the initiative. Mr. Calvin can well afford to inaugu rate his administration by the announcement of definite plans for the construction of a passenger station in Omaha that is in keeping with the city's importance and dignity. Carranza Again Makes Appeal. Secretary Lansing is in receipt of another note from the de-facto government of Mexico, asking that a definite time be fixed for the withdrawal of United States troops from Mexican territory, This may be interpreted as meaning the political pressure on Carranza is getting too strong for him. It is not possible that he can mistake the real meaning of the presence of American troops in Mexico. It is not that the United States has any sinister designs, it does not portend war, but it does mean that outlawry and disorder will be less of a menace to our border so long as our army is in control on the Mexican side. The United States government and not Carranza will determine when order has been sufficiently estab lished to justify the withdrawal of the expedi tionary forces. If anything to this end has been accomplished, none cf the credit is due to the effort or the attitude of the de facto Mexican government. Whatever may have been the rela tions between our president and the "first chief, Mr. Wilson cannot afford to risk a renewal of border disturbances merely for the sake of saving Carranza' face with his petulant countrymen. Beet Seeds from Russia. From the west coast comes the new s that car goes of sugar beet seed from Russia are arriving by way of Vladivostok, establishing a new trade route as well as renewing the supply of this seed which is almost exclusively used in the west. Hitherto we have depended largely on Germany and France for sugar beet seed, but Russia has contributed some, although the route has been across the Atlantic rather than the Pacific. This w ill not be the only change in trade routes occa sioned by the European upheaval, Nebraska is still greatly interested in the sugar induMry, for many acres in the west erd of the state are given over to the production of sugar beets, and the crop in rapidly becoming one of the moot profit able. The crop last season returned millions of dollars to the farmers tributary to the big mill at Scott's IMutT. and the erection of a new null there this season is proof that still more sugar brrts are t be grown.

I am opposed to contributing $50,000,000 from the treasury of the United States to buy inflated priced ships for the government. By the way, that is impossible at this time, as there is less than that sum in the treasury of clear legal ten der money. I am equally opposed to mortgaging the future by sale of Panama bonds, placing a burden upon our children of $50,000,000 for them to pay for ships to be purchased now at the high est price ships have ever brought, not only in the history of the United States, but in the history of the world since Commodore Noah started out with his water craft and the scoffers of that day looked around, Saw the gathering flood, and then asked him to name his price for a ship. (Laugh ter). "Yet the inspiring genius of this legislation, still active in its support, no doubt will find a way to go into the market and purchase ships at whatever price necessary to obtain them, and place that burden upon our children. They prob ably will, God bless them, forgive us for it, but they will have a sublime contempt for our busi ness judgment in investing at this time. The western man who bought water in a dry season to hold for use when the floods came had nothing on the financial genius who conceived this leg islative enterprise. "I object to the investment for, a larger rea son, and that is the reason unveiled by the speaker of the house in his address yesterday, unveiled with that frankness which compels us all to love and admire him. "Gentlemen will recall that the first bill pre sented in this house for this legislation, two or more years ago, stated clearly that it was to build tip our South American trade. That appeared also in the committee reports to the house and senate. Hut now the purpose un until yesterday and today was, if not veiled and concealed, was kept ably secluded. Because while I have al ways understood that the main purpose was to build up this South American trade, nothing in the bill, committee report, or responsible speech emphasized that fact till the speaker declared the South American trade as the larger end to be served by passage of this bill. "I have no objection to building up trade with South America, with Kurope, or with any of the continents of the earth, but I do not desire that trade shall be built up with South America at the expense of the American treasury so as to give a special discrimination against the people whom I represent and those living in that part of the country whence 1 come. "The following is a portion of an editorial taken from the Wallace Farmer, one of the great est farm journals in the world. I knew well its able and venerable founder in his lifetime. The last time I met him we discussed the adverse line of legislation begun and carried out in congress against the men and women of the northwest and the industries through which they were mak ing that section the best and most useful part of the world reciprocity, so-called farmers' free list, Underwood tariff law, and now thia government owned shipping bill, with the South American trade as its objective; "But if we should be able to secure a large there of the South American trade, what effect will It have on the agri culture of the United HtatesT What will it mean to the corn-belt farmer, who has been furnishing most of the corn consumed in the United State, and in tome year ha been exporting T What will It mean to the wheat grower in the United States T What will it mean to the live stock grower and feeder, not only in the corn belt, but in the west? "If we should establiiih a line of merchant vessels for the South American trade, either by government subsidy or through government ownemhip, theae vessels would take down there the products of our manufacturing en terprise. What will South America sell to u in return for what they buy from usT Naturally they will eipect us to take their agricultural products, their corn and their mall grains, their cattle, sheep and hides. What effect will that have on the agriculture of the west? If we ex pect South American people to buy from us, we must be willing to buy from them and we must buy what they have to sell. "For a generation the farmer of this country utaind a high protective tariff on manufactured products, and during that period they were given a high protective tariff on agricultural products. Few of them realised that thia tariff on agricultural producta was absolutely worthless to them, because we had a surplus of agricultural products which we were selling at prices with which no other country could compete. When, a few year ago, prices of grain and live stock reached a point at which other countries could compete, what happened to us? The paper tariff, which had been of no value up to that time, was very promptly taken off a soon as It became worth something, and we are not likely to get It back If the efforts to establish relations with 8outn America are successful. "The price of corn, for example, is governed very largely by the surplus which we have to sell; not neceii sarily the suiplus which goes out of the country, but the urplus which go out of the country in which it was grown. Thi amount to not more than 20 per cent of the total crop. Speaking roughly, the price is fixed by a surplus of, say, 600,000,1100 bushels. The Argentine sur plus of corn is in the neighborhood of 170,000,000 bushel, or about one-third of our eurplus. Now, if the price is lixed by our surplus of 100, 000,000 hunheln. what will happen if w add to that surplus 170,000,000 bushels from Argentina? We can nut say definitely, but we would estimate the effect to be a reduction of not less than S cents a buihel probably more. What effect will this have on the price of our land, remembering that this S cents Is taken out of the profit of the farmer? "Not alone the farmers, but all of the citisens of the west should cunnider this situation. No one can foresee now jut what el fed this war and its termination will have upon the United Stales; but when we cunaitier that the prosperity of the weet depends upon the prosperity of its agriculture, it seems high time that we should take mile of the probable developmenu that may very injur iously aftect us. "It seems to us the time has cume for the people of the esl lu coneider whether they ehould nut send le congree men who will represent the weat and It Inter eete, rather than men who will represent this psrty ur that party," ,!

Oh, Red-head, drumming at my roof Agalnet your tape my dream aren't proof, But they do not distress me; Although my dreams are rent In two I would not hurl my enap at you, No euch dealres pos seta me; For I am glad to be awaka When all the birds sweet muelo make, Long e'er It a time to dress me.
