Shafts Aimed at Omaha Si 1 1 Hastings Tribune: An Omaha man is praying for a divorce because his better half refused to get breakfast for him. Gee, but he must have a terrible disposition. .. Loup City Times: In Omaha they are enact ing an ordinance against automobile speeders making it a jail sentence. This is going to hurt and it looks like it was itrong medicine. Friend Sentinel: Several society girli of Omaha are working every day. This is much bet ter than the girl who imagines that she doesn't have to work. The girl who knows how to work will make the better wife and mother and she will enjoy better health than the average "night racer" ; r . - Blair Pilot: Here's a bit of real humor from the short editorial paragraph column of The Omaha Bee: "Much ado is being made because a millionaire soft drink manufacturer has been nominated mayor of Atlanta. Oh, pshaw, that's nothing! We nave had a famous soft drink con sumer as mayor of Omaha for a dozen years:" Ord Quiz: Finding that imposing fines on the violators of the auto speed law has little effect in remedying the reckless-driving evil, the Omaha authorities are now proposing to try jail sentences on offenders. Violators of the speed law are a menace to the safety of the public and no more entitled to leniency than the violators of any other law. Soc it to 'em. - Blair Enterprise: The Omaha Grain exchange has adopted a rule shutting out the little fellows, those with small capital, from dealing in futures by exacting margins on deals in futures so great that the small fry can't meet them. The big fish of the elevator combines were not willing to match their judgment against that of the little fellows who studied conditions upon which to base their judgment Tht Only Logical Conclusion. , ! One of the unbiased reviews of the railroad strike drama and its culmination in the enactment of the new eight-hour' wage' basis law includes this pertinent observation: Before leaving Washington President Gar retson expressed the belief that the action of congress in legislating the eight-hour day in this instance points logically to federal regula tion of all railways to the ultimate end of gov ernment ownership. The taking over by the president and congress, in conjunction with the Interstate Commerce commission and the special investigating commis sion yet to be appointed, of the whole question of hours and wages of employes of railroads subject to the interstate commerce law (barring the few specific exceptions) completely estops the demo crats from attempting to make further issue out of the exclusive federal regulation plank in the republican platform. As a consequence of recent court decisions in rate cases and of this new wage legislation, fed eral regulation is already in effect in the matters of, most importance, and the states' , rights idea of independent conflicting control by forty-eight different law-making and administrating bodies has heard its death knell sounded. President Garretson is eminently correct in his conclusion that there is no logical stopping point , short of "federal regulation of all railways," even though his "ultimate end of government owner ship" be disputable or, at best, remote. No one, let it be noted, thought of appealing to the differ ent state railway commission! to bring about an adjustment of the recent wage trouble. On the contrary, everyone concerned looked solely to the seat of federal government for the solution if it was to come through any public authority. In other words, all our railroads have become and are part of one national system of transportation whose vital problems can neither be localized nor dealt with satisfactorily except in their proper relation to the whole. Rebound of the British Blacklist Eleventh hour enactment of retaliatory laws by congress, aimed at the Entente Allies, means the entrance of the United States into the war not as an active combatant, but passively to se cure for American commerce protection our di plimocay has been unable to achieve. Congress has been compelled again to come to the relief of the president, to assist him in his effort to pro tect the rights of Americans to engage in foreign commerce or carry on communication with friend ly nation!. The British blacklist has brought the affair to a sharp focus, and the action of congress may be helpful to end the patient submission of our government to mistreatment going on for over two years. All sorts of Interference with commerce on the high seas has been brooked un der the constructive blockade, now made intoler able by the addition of the blacklist and boycott of American firms by the Entente Allies under Britiih leadership. Vigoroui enforcement of retal iatory laws might bring about readjustment, but la scarcely to be looked for from the vacillating Wilson administration, unless it develops firm ness and energy not hitherto exhibited by it. Japan Straining Peace Again. The demands made by Japan upon China put peace in the Far East again in a precarious posi tion. In substance, the memorandum amounts to insistence on the suzerainty of Japan over China and submission will be a measurable surrender of the national character of the Flowery Kingdom. It is difficult for an outside to form an accurate estimate of the situation, for want of definite knowledge of the extent of Japanese control al ready established. The intrigue leading up to present development! hai long been carried on and has been especially active and perisistent since the beginning of the war in Europe, the Japanese taking advantage of the fact that the attention of other world powers was directed else where. Chinese politic! are in such a chaotic state and the government si it exiiti is to unready for resistance that it would not be surprising to find Japan firmly entrenched in full control of the empire surely moving to decadence through lack of vitality. ': ' 0 '. r-. Possession of the authority and Influence de manded will of course strengthen Japan's position as a world power, for future dealings with China must then be through Toklo.' The United States is involved because of the Hay treaty, pledging this country to maintenance of the principle of the "open door," and to the territorial integrity of Chins. It is possible for the Japanese to evade entanglement along these lines by relying on their hitherto professed intention of exercising merely friendly supervision of the affairs of their helpless neighbor. Last winter Baron lishi Shi busawa, leading financier of Japan, suggested that an ' arrangement between his country and the United States to exploit China would be profitable to all.;. ; . ::.;.: . . ' ... . The lituation may become decidely interest ing, as the United States is the only country left to which the Chinese may appeal as against the aggressiveness of the Japs. "Crocker Land" Plays Vanishing Act Back from the Arctic region comes the ex ploring expedition, sent out to check up on dis coveries reported by Admiral Peary in connection with hii journey to the pole; First of all it the statement that no vestige of the so-called "Crocker Land" could be found. The investiga tors found only open deep water where Peary found the new "land." They have concluded the gallant commind-r was misled by a .mirage, which is quite believable.' Whether, this will throw doubt on other features of Peary's report must be determined by further details of what the investigators found. The fierce controversy between Cook and Peary has never been entirely stilled, and it may easily be opened again. It will be well for the latter if it is, and certain ele ments of doubt now existing be cleared away, that his great exploit may be established beyond ques tion. The vanishing of "Crocker Land" need not be considered discrediting to Peary'i whote claim. t Now our democratic frienda object because Mr. Hughes takei the preiident to task for his part in the holdup of congress to enact strike leg islation after the fact instead of roluteering ad vice while the controversy was in process of nego tiation. Had Mr, Hughes taken sides in the strike situation, these same democratic organs would have condemned him for premature "but ting In." Like lawyers retained for the defense, they are ready to sidestep any move on the side of the prosecution, no matter what it is. A glimpse of the padded appropriations of con gress once more vindicates democracy's reputa tion as a champion national spendthrift a iohav Thought Nugget for the Day. The gentle mind by gentle deeds is known; For a man by nothing is so well bewrayed As by his manners. Herbert Spencer. One Year Ago Today in the War.

" 'Why it is,' a fat man was once asked, 'that you fat chaps are always so good-natured?1 "'We have to be,' the fat man replied. 'You see, we can neither fight nor run.'" New York Times. ' The professor was trying to demonstrate simple experiment in the generation of steam. ; "What have I in my hand?" he asked. : "A tin can," came the answer in concert. " "Very true. Is the can an animate or an in animate object?" "Inanimate." "Exactly. Now, can any little boy or girl tell me how, with this tin can, it is possible to generate a surprising amount of speed and power, almost beyond control?" One little boy raised his right hand. 4 , "You may answer, Rutherford." "Tie it to a dog's tail." Philadelphia Ledger. Sound Suggestions for Safety. Omaha, Sept. . To the Editor of The Bee: Over a year ago the Ne braska Safety league urited the city commissioners to establish safety zones on the downtown streets of Omaha, and at Twenty-fourth and Farnam. A few days a(to the Omaha Auto club suggested that these zones be designated by a line on the pave menL We all know that careless autoists have little regard for the lines which are already on downtown streets. Numbers of them cross over before they are given the signal. What Omaha needs and should have is an iron railing or chain to encircle the safety zone, or, better still, an elevated board platform, such as Winnipeg and several other cities have, where parae&gers may stand or alight from a car without their lives being endangered. These platforms are safe and practical and may be made plain or ornamental, as the city prefers. Another suggestion from the Ne braska Safety league Is that signals be installed at each street Intersec tion downtown. These should have the words "Go" and "Stop," and would be manipulated by the traffic officer. When the signal says- "Go" all traffic moves in that direction, and when "Stop" is signalled pedestrians and vehicles alike stop and wait for the word "Go." The writer has visited many large cities, including Detroit, during the last year and has made a study of safety precautions. It might be well for the city commissioners,, the Oma ha Automobile club and a represen tative of the pedestrians to get to gether on this Important question. Let us "Grow with Growing Omaha." NEBRASKA SAFETY LEAGUE, i . 61 Keeline Bldg. Essence of Socialism. St Mary, Neb., Sept 6. To the Editor of The Bee: I note In a re cent Issue of The Bee a Mr. Agnew refers to Instances where the prices of the necessaries of life were ad vanced In price, and unjustifiably so, and infers he would be in favor of putting such dealers behind prison bars or hanging them. I cannot con ceive why he should be In favpr of punishing anyone who has not vio lated any law. We are living under a profit system and our laws were In tentionally so enacted to give some the privilege of robbing others if an opportunity presents itself. In the same article he Hays he is not a revo lutionist, an anarchist or a socialist. In this I beg leave to differ with him. To raise the price of the necessaries of life without just cause is oppres sion, and Mr. Agnew being opposed to such measures reveals a spirit of dissatisfaction, and whenever a spirit of dissatisfaction becomes general it leads to revolution, therefore he hits revealed a revolutionary spfrit. How about not being an anarchist? He speaks of being in favor of hav ing men hung that persist In practices that are oppressive. Evidently be cause they are bad men and would like to have them removed from so ciety, and thereby make society bet ter. The theory of anarchy is to kill all the bad people so that only the good will remain, therefore he has shown a streak of anarchy. Now, how about not being a social ist? "Thou Shalt not oppress the poor and humble of my people." When he resents the practice of op pression which Is wrong and unchris tian, a socialistic spirit shows Itself. Socialists advocate co-operative and collective ownership, which would eliminate the profit system, and con sequently elmlnate the practice of op pression. I feel Inclined to believe If anyone were to say that Mr. Agnew was not a Christian he would feel offended, yet he says himself he is not a socialist. Pray by what au thority does he make the distinction? There is no more difference be tween socialism and Christianity than there is between two American silver dollars There may be a distinction one may be a little more worn or bear a different date than another, but both will perform the same serv ice. But because a little 2x4 like my self makes this assertion does not prove anything conclusive, because I am not considered authority. There fore 1 shall quote from the Encyclo pedia Brittanlca, which is acknowl edged as standard authority of the world, being based on the opinion of the greatest professors of theology, philosophy, political economy and ethics. I quote from ninth edition, Volumn U: "The ethics of social ism are closely akin to the ethics of Christianity; if not identical, to say that socialism and Christianity are ethically the same unmistakable." Just because a man may vote the socialist ticket does not make him a socialist, any more than it makes a man a Christian because he goes to church. "It is not he that says 'Lord, Lord' that shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he that does the will of the Father," and "By their deeds shall ye know them." In my opinion when- we come before that Judge from whose decision there is no ap peal the verdict will be rendered ac cording to what we practiced and not according to what we professed. H. SCHUMANN.
