Subscriber tearing tha city temporarily should hara Tha Baa mailed to th.rn. Act- dress will bo changed as of tan aa requested. Loop-Holet in tht CempetiMtion Law. State Labor Commissioner Coffey rightfully protests against the interpretation which the Lin coln school board would put upon our Nebraska workmen's compensation law by contending that it does not cover accidental injuries sustained by public janitor. The law speciflcally Includes governmental agencies, but the Lincoln school board would seek to escape under the clause ex cepting non-profit-making associations. It cer tainly would be an anomaty for the state to set up a standard of justice as between private em ployers and employes, and then try (o shirk similar responsibilities of its own through a loop hole of legal technicality, Yet the idea that a janitor takes employment in a public school at his own accident risk, where as he would be entitled to compensation if he were working in a private business house, is no more anomalous than some actual contradictions of the Nebraska law. Why, for example, should an employe enjoy its benefits while working for a concern employing numerous co-wbrkers but lose those benefits when compelled to hire out to an employer with less than five workers? Why, again, should the widow and children of a work man killed in a threshing machine, for example, have no consideration as coming under the char acter of agricultural labor, while the widow and children of a man killed in a packing house are conceded full rights? Why, again, should society assume the burden of industrial accidents and re fuse to assume the burden of accidents of domes tic employments? Plainly, our conception of social justice legis lation needs broadening out 10 as to smooth some of these rough places. ' ' ,' Republican harmony; carries the pep that makes for victory.

T With so many of the democratic office-holders, officing there, "falling down" it is not surprising i that the state house shows sign of acquiring the falling habit,' too.

And now 'we are told that the percentage of water plant revenue produced by a 3-mill tax levy if not a Urge as it ought to be.

Wat the writer ever ' a republican? Or, Is' he a 'masquerading 'demo crat? Or, is he, one of those versatile literary fictionists on the senator's payroll? , Nebraska Press Comment Fremont Tribune:, If this hot weather con. tinues, disappointed democrats can at least think pleasantly ot one feature oi tne appointment ot Omaha's new postmaster. His name is Fanning. Osceola Record: All this talk of repealing; the firimary law becomes tiresome. No one cares or a change in the primary law, but those who can no longer .control nominations -and wish to o back toi tne boss ridden convention system, he Record is strictly against any move in that direction. ' ' " -" - ' " " ' ' Columbus Telegram: Careful estimate show that the Deoble of Nebraska spend several million dollars per year with the big mail order houses which sell things to eat and wear. Every dollar of this money ought to be spent with home mer chants. The suggestiorr-of The Telegram-is to the effect that Nebraska merchants would be in bettor position to ask people to buy, eat and wear things here -at home it the merchant themselves would practice what they preach, and quit send ing insurance money to New York and London. - Tekamah Herald:. Some of the state paper are making sarcastic remarks about the democrat paying $850 per year to the city of Lincoln for the water used at the state house. It seems to us that an explanation is ' necessary. Fifteen thousand gallons a day is too much, especially for democratic state omciais who never acquired tne reputation of being fond Of water. , We would hot blame them much for not using the Lincoln brand of brine solution,' if they could obtain any other substitute, to slake their thirst. : The question i -what was the i5,ugu gallons per day used for. Beatrice Express: The is but little consols lion for the Nebraska democracy In the interview given out by ex-Secretary, of-State Bryan at Omaha. "1 do not care to advise the state con vention," said the -ex-leader of. his party in this jute. "The -wets carried the primary and upon tnem rests tne responsiDiuty ot writing the plat form and lavinit out; lheline of the camDaurn." Not a word abceH, Mr. Hitchcock, Mr. Neville or any of the other democratic candidate for Jtate or congressional offices. , It, appear! that this is me of the yeartv when Mr. Bryan, .bavins been -mitten on one cheek, will refuse to turn his ..ither cheek in the direction of his assailants. Passing of Two Great Men. Two men who wrought for humanity in dif ferent fields, but who saw the world through eyes not dimmed by material things, have just gone on ahead. James Whitcomb Riley won a poet' bay because he sang the homely songs of the people In phrase and meter that touched the heart William Ramsay gained eminence because he could look through matter and visualize some thing beyond the mere substance he held in his hand.' In response to his imagination, a new world has opened to science, and man i given to understand something closer to the truth than he ever before approached. , Who will presume to put a value on the real service of either of these men? The one soothed the rest of a weary world the other excited its desire for further endeavor, but both served. Riley's song will be familiar to million who never will read Ramsay's con clusions, but those million will be the better housed tnd fed because the chemist wrought his work of inquiry. Each served well in his own work, and the world is sdvantsged because they did. England's Reply on Mail Question. The outline of the note from Great Britain in reply to the complaint of the United State against Interception of neutral mails, as sent from London, I disappointing. It might have been expected that Foreign Minister Grey would put the best possible face on the offensive policy adopted by his majesty' government, but the evasion of the real issue, and the pretense of sur prise at the character of specific complaints made is not convincing. The main fact la that the Brit Ish have been taking neutral mails from neutral ship, and holding it for inspection. This assump tion of oversight of the relation between the citiien of neutral countries, a well as their in tercourse with nation at whom Great Britain happen to be at war I intolerable." Conventions of Geneva and The Hague, which provide for the passage of mail in war time, have been set aside or ignored. Contraband, actual Or conditional, li defined for mail a well as for merchandise, but this definition has' gone by the board along with other restriction imposed by agreement between the great power of the world. Thi I because the Scandinavian countries and Holland have persisted In their rights of com munication with countries with whom they are on friendly footing:,; United State trade .with Germany and Austria hat been reduced to nearly nothing. In fact, the British attitude since the establishment of its constructive blockade has been domineering as to neutrals, and is not im proved by recent act. Remonstrance by the United States, has not been fairly met,' previous note from -Minister Grey being of the tame nature a the present. A more determined stand by our government is necessary, If we are not to be reduced to the con dition of the Scandinavian countries, and be put on ration by England. ,, Rural Credits Pretension. President Wilson has signed the rural credits bill, passed by the present congress, saying as he did so: ' . e ..!. - I look forward to the benefits of this bill, not with extravagant expectations, but with con fident expectation that it will be of very wide reaching benefit, and incidentally it will be of advantage to the Investing community, for I can imagine no more satisfactory or solid in vestments than this system will afford those who have money to use. Inasmuch a the measure provides only for machinery to loan money on first mortgage on unincumbered land, and for but SO per cent of the value, the exact benefit the farmer la going to derive is not clear. Some argument ha been made that it will have the effect of lowering the inter est rate to the farmer. This remain to be seen. The farm loan bank are to be permitted to issue debenture bonds, guaranteed by the bank but not by the government, based on the first mort gage loan of the bank, but these bonds must carry a rate of interest sufficiently high to make them attractive to investors, or their sale will be slow. The only co-operation permitted to the farmer under law takes the form of organising branches of the regional bank. , The short time loan, needed for handling crops or in a live stock deal, is not known to the farm loan bank, which is to be exclusively a land loan affair. The president I justified in hi expectation that the farm loan bank will provide a safe, solid and profitable investment for those that have money, but it remains to be seen how It is going to help the farmer, who is a borrower and not a lender? War's necessity, force another change in the Russian cabinet . All the allies a well a the cen tral power have "changed hone In the middle of the stream," preferring fresh mount to the worn tut and inefficient. . " " As long as human heart throb with the homely joys of simple live, the spirit and the songs of Jim Riley will brighten the long road, His spirit, like a blessing, brightens as its take its flight.- ' ; ':-,:-! .- . . ' i iohav Thought Nugget for the Day. The real difference between men is energy. A strong will, a settled purpose, an invincible de termination, can accomplish almost anything; and in this lies the distinction between great men and little men. Andrew Fuller. One Year Ago Today in the War. Russians began preparations for evacuating Warsaw. - American steamship Leelanaw sunk by Ger man submarine off coast of Scotland. British took town of Nasiriyeh, on the Euph rates, after shelling by gunboat. Austrians gained important strategic position south of Sokal, in northern Galicia, on eastern bank of Bug river.

NEBRASKA EDITORS. The Fullerton Post. John R. Dopf, editor. has installed an Intertrpe and appeared In a brand new drcse laat week. F. C. Wilson, wbo recentlr purchased the Cortland Newa, has sold It to E. D. Master, who will have charge of the paper in the future. Miss Chattie Coleman, editor of the Stroniiburg Hcadliaht, is making a tour of the mountains of Colorado in her automobile. with a party of friends. The Geona Leader began the thirtr-eighth year of its existence last week. Fred K. Young, its present proprietor, has been at the helm for twenty-live years. The editors of Nebraska and western Iowa have been invited to be the guests of King Ak-Sar-Ben at the annual frolic for newspaper men at the Den on the evening of September 4. Genoa Leader: It now costs a man SS cents to get hta hair cut over In Platte, countr. the raise taking effect last Monday morning. It looks to us as though It will be a darned site cheaper to let it grow, like dgar Howard does. C. A. Sweet, jr., has sold the Palmyra Items to W. C. Giffen. The new proprietor has announced that the subscription price will be advanced at once to S1.60 a year. Mr. Sweet, who has had charge of the paper since he was IS years old, waa known as the youngest editor in Nebraska. Tekamah Herald: Editor Faesett of the Herman Record is the victim of a boycott because he has been a leading factor in putting out the saloon at that place. Boy cotting a newspaper is like playing with dynamite It is sure to react on the per petrators. The newspaper holds within He pages the power to either wrack or make a town, and regardless of persona grievances jhould be respected and supported. Aurora Republican: Thia ts the season of the year when Ross Hammond of tha Fremont Tribune forgets hie accustomed consideration for less favored newspaper workers and writes long paragraphs in his "Random Shots" column about the joys of camp life in the northern woods. Such liter ature is what turns good ettisens into howl ing anarchists, and Ross ought to cut it out in the interest of good government. TIPS ON HOME TOPICS. Boiton Transcript: Mr. Rdfleld report, that the high coit of living in 1916 wa re duced "1 per cent, net' but didn't he mean "1 per cent, nltf" Pitta burgh Ditpatch: Looking over Sec retary Lane'i defcnie of the admlnUtration polictei, it mutt be admitted he writes very entertainingly about oar national narks. Indianapolis News: With all the existing complications, and more likely to arise at any moment, isn't it rather risky for the president to postpone his notification until congress adjourns T Ht may never And it out. Louisville Courier-Journal: A psycholo gist says the best age for a girl to marry Is U. A majority of girls will take advantage jf the psychological moment rather than the psychologist's advice and marry when the 'ight man proposes. , Springfield Republican i With some 100. 700 national guardsmen on the border, along with 60,000 regulars and 5,000 reserves. It hould be possible for Uncle Sam to keep the peace and at the same time impress the Mexicans with the fact that he means busi ness. It is also to be recognized that no better training for the militiamen of the country could be devised. Springfield Republican: The Pennsyl vania railroad announces that it has an army of 60,000 loyal employes willing to man he freight locomotives and trains east of Pittsburgh if the union employes decide to go on strike for an eight-hour day and pay and a half for overtime. The shopmen are said to be especially prompt in volun teering. If this sort of amateur train run ning Is really to be undertaken It is a good thing that it Is not to be tried on passenger trains. . New York World: The man who wrote he section of the Clayton law prohibiting a railroad from transacting business of any kind with a corporation In which Its officers are financially interested to the extent of 160,000 or more knew what he waa doing. It was expected to break up the practice of railroad officials organising inside companies for the purpose of selling securities and -upplies to themselves as representatives of he railroads. A determined effort is now Ticking to have this clause suspended. It is one feature of the Clayton act that ought to stand forever. THE BRITISH BLACKLIST. Brooklyn Eagle: It Is an essentially in olent threat. It Justifies the resentment of he United States, and we shall be surprised f such resentment is not quickly voiced by he Washington administration. New York Times: Quite the most tact less, foolish, and unnecessary act of the Birtlsh government during the war, unless tur observation has been much at fault, is .he drawing up of a blacklist of some four wore business firms and individuals hi this country, with whom British subjects, under the British trading with tha enemy act, are forbidden to trade. St, Louis Globe-Democrat : Whether we have any remedy that would not be worse than tht disease or not, it la certain that the State department will suffer from no lack of verbal ammunition In attacking the latest British enlargement of the so-called "tradlng-with-thc-enemy" inhibitions. Black listing American firms because - of the antecedents of some of the members is a qrross insult to tha United States. Our citi zens are our ettisens, no matter where they were born or to what flag they once owed allegiance. Chicago Tribune: These restrictions take the aspect of acts against a belligerent. The assurance that our interests are being dealt with aa considerately and generously as the situation will permit does not take the sting -jut of the proceedings. Our own authori ties In international law say that the ease calls for reprisal. We do not believe that the United States wishes to act aa if It were a spoiled child and we believe it has endeavored to adjust Itself to abnormal con ditions, but Great Britain shows a lack of . intelligence In extending the blacklist to America. f . , Boston Transcript: Investigation of the eases of firms and individuals on the British blacklist proves that in many oases they are native American cltlsens, and that their only offense is that In tha past their business has been largely with Germany. But it Is not with Germany now, because they eannot deal with that country. Why should they be penalised for that? It does not appear likely that the British government can maintain the attitude which It seems to have assumed so hastily. WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES.
