ROBERT HUNTER. Notary Public
Good But Not Far-Reaching Enough.
A too ambitiouo young man, not yet duly ad
mitted to practice, has been sharply called to ac
count and fined, at the instigation of the local
ar association, (or "playing lawyer. To prac
tice law legally, certain traditional prerequisites
determined by examination are necessary, includ
ing the talcing of a sacred obligation to uphold
and defend the ethical standards of the profes
sion, and no interloper lacking appreciation of
this high morality and sacred duty of the attorney
should be permitted to engage with clients, to
say nothing of bidding for business against regu
larly established lawyers.
Let no one misunderstand us we are thor
oughly in accord with the movement to keep the
tandards of the bar from being broken down by
intruders. But why stop here, when the danger
of damage is even greater from the black sheep
legally admitted as lawyers who pursue disrepu
table practices and bring odium upon all their
associates? Why should not the reputable mem
bers of the bar direct their fire once in a while
at the crooked lawyers when they are shown up,
instead of too often rushing to their rescue? We
ave propounded this question more than once on
eminently proper occasions but with regrettably
isappointing answer. Now that the start is made
on a rank outsider with no right to claim protec
tion under pretense of being a lawyer, our hopes
are again stimulated.

To President Calvin of the Union Pacific:
Omaha extends the glad hand of welcome.
It would seem that grocers' and butchers' pic

Why state platform convention, anyway,
three months after the candidates are all nomi

What's the matter?
Russia reports the capture of 20S.0OO Austro
Hungarians in month. It looks as though
the Bear dislikes the hyphen.
Mexican occupation of the towns evacuated by
General Pershing no doubt will appear on native
billboards as "a famous" victory.
The guardsmen who failed in the physical
tests deserve an encouraging cheer. Even though
the doctors said nay, nay, their hearts were in
the right place.
Practicing law without permit is risky busi
ness, but not near as dangerous to tha profession
as the shady practices of certain members who
possess the permits.
? It it understood that Colonel Bryan's predic
tion of "a million men springing to arms to beat
' back invaders" did not Include Mexican bandit tn
vaders in the sweep of prophecy.
While national preparedness limps in and out
of congress, there is abundant reason for confi
dence in the future. Progressive republican pre.
parednest for November makes assurances doubly
sure. ' '
' That the restored troopers were robbed of
their money and valuables while in captivity is
readily believable. Mexico's schools of robbery
have graduated multitude of experts in the last
five years. -
The president says he would "fight for jus-
tice." He is historian enough, however, to know
that no war was ever waged in which the par
ticipants on both aides did not insist that they
were "fighting for justice.
A Chicago paper is trying already to inaugu
rate an organized movement to "brighten the
Christmas" of the boys in the trenches in Mexico.
The inspiration is all right but looks t trifle far
fetched six months in advance of the date.
; If our democratic friends want to go back
into the records, let them devote first attention to
the Baltimore platform and its repudiated pledges
which, that document itself solemnly assures us,
were made not just to run on but to be carried
out to the letter.
Auto' Injuries and deaths show tittle abate
' ment in number and frequency. Warning signals
and safety appeals make no impression on the
heedless. If the heedless did not endanger others,
their rush toward hospitals or to suicide might be
. tolerated. But so long as they endanger life and
limb on the public streets, the law in their cases
should be applied with unbending vigor.
Jay and Hughes
' to tha Now Turk I
Ex-Justice Hughes is generally recognized aa
the man best fitted to be president under present
circumstances, in which foreign relations, already
bad, have been worsened by unspeakable bung,
ling, and his election will duly follow for that rea
son.
The indignation of the democrats over his
nomination is undoubtedly due to this fact and
ia natural, but obviously they can not give this
reason for it, so are assigning as its cause the fact
that the republican candidate comes from th
bench of the United States supreme court.
The democrats are strong for the precedents
set by "the fathers." Let us consult these for
guidance.
iohn Jay waa considered to have rendered
service to the colonies and to the formation
of the constitution that Washington offered him
his choice of the federal appointments when the
new government was formed, and Jay chose that
of chief justice of the supreme court This he
held continuously from September, 1789, until
June, 1795. But in 1792 he ran for governor of
New York state, and being "counted out," re
tained the chief justiceship until 1795, when he
ran for governor, again, and this time was elected.
He held the governorship for six years, until
1801. He was ottered a reappointment as chief
justice in December, 1800, but declined. This
was during; the presidency of John Adams, and
after the election of Thomas Jefferson, the father
and patron saint of democracy, and during the
lifetime of nearly all of the "the fathers."
- Washington evidently saw no reason to dis
fpprove of such conduct, not even of having the
i chief justice go through an active political cam
paign white occupying the bench, else surely be
' would not have permitted him to stay until he
voluntarily retired three years later alter a sec
tnd camoaiKn. .
Verily, Washington, Adams, Jefferson and the
rest ot trie lathers naa low standards ot poli
tical ethics as compared with the high-minded
unselfish democratic politicians ot today.
Two Water Works Items. '
Two items of interest have just come from
the water department; one to the effect that be
cause of the last rate reduction water consumers
are now paying a fraction of a cent less than the
actual cost of furnishing them the water; the
other, that the promised burning of the water
bonds held in the sinking fund is not to take
place.
The first proposition, unfortunately, is wholly
fictitious and merely a bookkeeping juggle. The
water rate in Omaha is not less than the cost of
furnishing the water because the cost figures are
artificially padded by altogether unnecessary re
serves. With the water tax imposed, Omaha is
entitled right now to the 15 cent rate which con
sumers in Lincoln, Fremont and other towns
around us enjoy and a 15-cent rate would be fully
compensatory although it would not produce the
surplus we have been piling up.
As to deferring the cancellation of the bonds,
the undisguised purpose is to hold the sinking
fund available for purposes entirely foreign to the
conduct of the water works. The use of this
accumulation to buy, or speculate in, school
bonds, lighting bonds, or any other bonds, was
never dreamed of when the wat,er bonds were
voted. The original bond proposition should
have provided for gradual retirement instead of
keeping all the bonds outstanding for thirty years.
The next legislature should require that prefer
ence be given our own water bonds when invest
ing the sinking fund and for their immediate can
cellation when bought.
Clemency for Roger Casement.
Sir Roger Casement having been found guilty
of high treason and sentenced to death, which
means he will be expeditiously and ignominiously
hanged unless the British authorities may be in
duced to relent, is now become the object of a
general sympathy. His case is one of the, most
peculiar in all history. The venture on which he
embarked was so visionary and so hopeless it can
hardly be looked upon as the deliberate plan of
an entirely sane man. Aside from its moral effect,
which is negative so far as his own views are
concerned, the undertaking made no impression
on England. The abortive uprising of the Sinn
Feinera has brought a better understanding with
Ireland than could have been accomplished by
years of partisan debate in parliament, and it is
altogether likely the settlement now proposed
will do much to really unite the peoples, at least
to allay Irish agitation. Casement's part in this
may be of greater importance than has so far
been acknowledged, owing to the fact that he
has been under charge of treason. Whether he
be entitled to credit along this line doesn't much
matter. Great Britain can afford to be generous
to him. The imperial government can acquire no
new glory through the execution of an insane
man, even though he be a dangerous rebel, nor
will Britannia's laurels shine any brighter for
adding another name to the list of martyrs. Case
ment living may or may not be a danger; Case
ment dead will surely be an inspiration to others
of a race that has not counted life as of value
save to use in furthering the cause of pure free
dom. .

We rise by the things that are under our feet;

Captain Boyd: Brave or Foolish?
Debate concerning the Carrizal incident will
turn on the action of Captain Charles A. Boyd,
who was in command of the American scouting
party. Already is it said he was either very
brave or very foolish. So far the most accurate
knowledge of the events of that unfortunate af
fair is furnished by troopers under command of
the captain, and a civilian who had been employed
as a guide and interpreter. Captain Boyd is dead,
and so is his second in command, and only his
notebook is left, its meager record being insuf
ficient to determine the main point involved. In
much of its detail the whole affair resembles the
case of General Custer, in which forty years of
discussion and inquiry has failed to determine
whether any failure in the whole duty of a soldier
is chargeable to that brave leader.
Captain Boyd had been sent on a definite mis
sion; it was one directly in line with the purpose
of the presence of American troops on Mexican
soil, and had in it nothing of menace to the cause
of the de facto government. It was not to be ex
pected that he would turn aside from this mission
because of orders given him by the commander
of Mexican troops. His duty as a soldier forbade
this, and also it forbade that he commit any overt
act that would lead to open hostilities. Even the
fragmentary accounts so far given us of what
transpired show that Captain Boyd scrupulously
adhered to his orders. No question can be raised
as to his courage; his judgment may be questioned
by some. As was written of another hero: "How
lightly they'll speak of the spirit that's' gone, and
o er his cold ashes upbraid him.
So far as can be determined at this time,
Captain Boyd was true to the beat traditions of
the American soldier; he did his duty as he saw it,
he obeyed the orders given him, and fell fighting
against odds too great to overcome.
As a matter of fact there is no reason why
churches should not advertise any more than why
movies should not advertise. . It is not enough
nowadays to have something people want the
public must be advised when, where and how to
etit

THE BELEAGUERED CITY.
Henry W. Longfellow.
I have read. In some old marvelous tale.
Some legend strange and vague,
That a midnight host of specters pal
Beleaguered the wall of Prague.
Beside the Motdau's rushing stream,
With the wan moon overhead.
There stood, as in an awful dream,
The army of the dead.
White a the sea-fog, landward-bound,
The spectral camp waa seen,
And, with a sorrowful, deep sound,
The river flowed between.
No other vole nor sound wa there,
No drum, nor sentry's pace;
The mlst-lllt banners clasped the air,
As clouds with cloud embrace.
But when the old cathedral bell
Proclaimed the morning prayer.
The whit pavilion rose and fell
On the alarmed air.
Down the broad valley fast and far
The troubled army fled;
Up rose the glorious morning star.
The ghastly host wa dead.
X have read. In th marvelou heart of man,
That Strang and mystic scroll.
That an army of Phantoms vast and waa
Beleaguered th human aoul.
Encamped beside Life's rushing stream.
In Fancy's misty light.
Gigantic shape and shadow gleam
Portentous through the night.
Upon it midnight battleground
The spectral camp I seen.
And, with a sorrowful, deep sound.
Flow th River of Life between.
No other vole nor sound la there
Ia th army of th grave; v
No ether challenge break th air,
But th rushing of Llf' wave.
And whan th solemn and deep church bell
Entreat tn soul to pray,
Th midnight phantom feel th spell,
Th shadow sweep away.
Down th bread Vale of Tear afar
The spectral camp I fled;
Faith ahlneth a a morning star.
Our ghaKtly tear ar dead.
