Respect for the law and maintenance of order. , 2. Speedy and certain punishment of crime' through the regular operation of the courts. 3. Pitiless publicity and condemnation of inefficiency ' lawlessness - and corrup tion in office. 4. Frank recognition and commendation of honest and efficient public service. 5. Inculcation of Americanism as the true basis of good citizenship. ; No coal, no school. Johnny should worry. Uncle Sam might not be a bad coal digger, at that. ; Burglars took a day off Thanksgiving.

' A ten-inch blanket of snow over the fields where the wheat comes from means a great deal for next summer's harvest One thing Nebraska's governor does not have to contend with is to get a lot of coal miners td give over a strike and go to work.

It may end like coal, in a smudge. v London is to fix diamond prices, not, we trust, so high that the struggling masses will be deprived, of them, Just think of a home without a diamond 1 1 ' " Railroad brotherhoods, concluded their con ference without calling for a strike vote. This relief is grateful, for the coal situation is pro viding trouble enough. Lady XMancy Aston reads her title clear to a seat in Parliament by a handsome majority. She will now begin ta realize some of the diffi culties in delivering the goods she promised. Iowa's food commissioner insists that ex travagant buying is more than anything else responsible for high prices. He is probably as near right as any other of the investigators, but the big question is how to get people with money to look at it through his eyes. Ajjd then the necessaries are quite as expensive as the luxuries of life. . . , The victory , of the "jitney bus" over the trolley car at Lawrence, Mass., 'has been so complete that the electric lines have ceased operation. ( The question is purely one of economics. Street railway lines are not eleemosynary institutions, and can not long operate at a loss. Neither can "jitneys." In this competition, as in all other contests in the world of. industry, the fittest will survive. Lawrence, like, pther mbdern communities, must have safe and convenient means of urban transportation, and the question is, Which of the two methods better meets public needs? Insurance Denied the Cause Quite the queerest outcome of prohibition is the determination' of the insurance companies that they cannot afford any longer to permit specific meSTion in their policies of wines and liquors accumulated and held in stock by in dividual owners in order to mitigate the dry ness of the times or to defer the awful day of total desiccation. -Experience, it seems, has taught these companies that the theft of such stores has become so frequent that there is no possibility of profit in such insurance, and the strong implication is that it is too much to ex pect, human nature being what it is,' that the temptation which surrounds these necessarily rather ill-arnarded treasures should be resisted. In other words, they are sure to be stolen by somebody, for either consumption or sale, and so they constitute a "risk" as bad 'as certain buildings of the firetrap order, on which no in surance company will take chances at any price. It is intimated, too, that the stealing of these stores is often what the police call an "inside job." against which there is practically no pro tection at all, so far as an insurance company is concerned. i ,The plausibility of these statements or ac cusations must be admitted, for much value in small extension and conveniently portable lies in almost any of the departed or departing var iants of portable alcohol. Always they have tentied to create moral confusion, and it is not surprising that now they do it more than ever. There is a reason for tear, however, that this determination of the insurance companies will have one deplorable effect it will make the owners of the too precious stores "save" them by drinking them in passionate and violent haste. New York Times, UNCLE SAM, COAL MINER. The first and most important business be fore the government is to relieve the fuel situa tion. After mines are in operation and plenty of coal to meet the nation's requirements is being furnished, plenty of time may be taken to determine who is responssible for the re markable condition that exists.. Just now there is a tendency, natural enough, on part of oper tors and miners alike to shift the blame to the other. It is quite probable there is blame enough attached to both sides ta) keep them busy explaining for quite a while when the time comes. Commissioner Garfield talks bravely enough about not allowing either to profiteer. This will be worth while if it is only put into effect. The unfortunate fact Is that during 'the war he did permit profiteering by both operators and miners, under guise of stimulating produc tion. If he can lay this ghost now, and get the coal out of the ground and into the cellars and the bunkers of the country, much may be for given him. , What counsel the miners will rely on can scarcely be gussed at Acting President Lewis reiterates that theoretically there is no strike. His mood may change, and he may give the assistance that can come from him better than from any other just now in solving the problem. It is also within the limit of likelihood that a considerable number of the men will break away from the position they have taken, and go to work in redemption of a duty they owe. the country. In a like manner the operators may resume, as far as possible production: A sig nificant remark on part of Mr. Lewis deserves a-little attention. He said he would give no consent to the starting up of a few mines, but that work must be provided for all, If this means anything, it may be taken as assent to a general resumption of work, and if it can be so reasonably interpreted, the end of the strike is in sight ' Seizure of mines by the government is only looked for where no effort is made to start up work. But it is now clearly up to the Wash ington authorities to do whatever is necessary to get coal for the heeds of the public. Future Trade With Germany. One of the lamentations of the administra tion group over the failure of the treaty to re ceive endorsement is that the United States has no consular agents in Germany. Permission to trade hase been given, but the dealers are left without protection of the government in the ordinary way. Another group, composed prin cipally of bankers, sets out' that unless Ger many is permitted to buy and selL. to produce and gain a profit, payment of huge indemnities will be impossible. These call attention to the fact that Germany is not for the moment a formidable competitor. Loss of man-power in cident to war and to the lowered vitality of the nation, because of disease and improper food, lessened productivity of the soil, destruction or seizure of merchant marine, disruption of the internal transport service. of the empire, and similar causes all operate against German pro ductive power. " Admitting all this without argument, another and more important phase of the situation must have American attention. Prior to the war we bought of Germany only such things as might have been produced at home. Exigencies com pelled us to turn to certain neglected industries and. make for :ourselves articles and com modities previously imported. In this list chiefly figures chemicals, dye stuffs, cutlery and certain forms of glass. All these are now made in America, of excellent quality and fully "fet ing requirements, with assurance of continued progress. Why should America give over their own activity in! order that German industry may be' restored?. ;, Neither hatred nor rancor enters into this. The restoration of the German nation to use fulness is a welcome prospect, but the future well-being of our own people demands that we continue .to produce and to sell, to vigorously compete in the world's markets, and to retain our own for our own. Germany may attain again the position of a first class power, po litically and economically, but it should not be brought about at the expense of American in dustry. ' 1 ' Borah Scores a Bullseye. , It is purely a work of love on part of Sena tor Borah to lay out a program for the ap proaching session of congress, yet his labor will not be in vain if it gets the attention it de serves. His principal plea is for attention to American affairs. Rehabilitation of the na tion's railroad system, wrecked through politics and incompetent administration, is under way, and to it congress must give the greatest care.. The Idaho statesman also says that people have been "taxed into bolshevism." This state ment ma be taken at slightly less than its face value, and yet the truth is that the burden of taxation rests heavier than ever on Americans. If the money secured by the government were entirely required for the legitimate and proper purpose of administering public affairs, no com plaint, would be made. The people submitted to the novel and tremendous levies made dur ing the war because they were told it was necessary to victory. Now it is being made plain that enormous sums we're wasted not only through extravagance, but incompetence and in many places bare-faced, graft dug deep holes into the national exchequer. ' These things are to be .corrected as far as possible. The last democratic congress made the tax levy for one year beyond its life, in 'suring the continuance of high taxes and per mitting extension of the lavish expenditure in dulged while the war was on. Chairman Cum mings defends his party's course by the lame excuse that it was "patriotic," and condemns efforts of the republicans to uncover .evidences of the mismanagement of public affairs by the .democrats, asserting that the inquiries are "par tisan." As the truth is coming to view, the demo cratic dread of investigation is better under stood. It is not merely politics, but a genuine public duty that now leads on the republicans, and Borah has pointed the course plainly. "Pussyfoot" Johnson has paid with his right eye for the fun some riotous students sought to have at his expense. He will be able to see his way through' a long fight against John Bar leycorn with his remaining'optic, however, and England will come to know him better in time. Efforts to connect the I. W. W. and the Omaha riots might be looked upon as other than visionary, had the grand jury been able to connect any well known "wobblies" with the outbreak. Character Building , Frorp. the St. Louis Globe-Democrat t A young man ' recently arrested for forgery gives as excuse that "things did not so good for him," and seems to cling to the idea that he is a victim of circumstances rather than of his own acts. Briefly, his history as he tells it is that his family in the east is fairly well to do. He received as good an education as he was willing to take or study for. He passes over his failure at home, which his history here indicates, and says that while here on business for his father he met a girl and in a week married hef under an assumed name. 'Apparently he forgot all about that business for his father in his new identity. He got a job and lost it, got another job and lost it, then forged three checks and went to another city, where he got still another job and lost it All this is "tough luck" from his point of view. He is like other less educated, and for that reason perhaps less culpable, law breakers, who declare they "never had no chance" in a country where thousands of our most successful and wealthy business men had no better chance than they. This young man had at least three jobs after he was married, with the added urge of family responsibility to cause him to make good, in cluding before the end a ba&y, and yet he could not keep them. He could not satisfy at least three different employers that he was worth re taining on the payroll,' in spite of having a good enough education to keep him there if he had possessed enough moral fiber without which education is valueless except as an aid to dis coverings more ways of getting into trouble. He had a better educational equipment for success than thousands upon thousands of young men who are making good in every avenue of human effort, some of them on their way clear to the top. He lacked the most important qualifica tion of all for business success moral fiber. His failure was of : his own causing j directly. Indirectly there, were other causes and respons ibilities. Lack of old-fashioned home life and old fashioned home discipline is respsonsible for much of the noticeable absence of a sense of responsibility in the present young generation. Our recent military experience has shown, or should make us realize, the value of discipline in developing the sense of responsibility, cul tivating reliability and stiffening the moral fiber in young men. But the average age of 20 years is late for the beginning of such development. There is no age too early for its beginning. When it begins early; its success is assured. When its begins late it is not assured and at best cannot reach the perfection of the earlier beginning. It is evident that the best place tor discipline and training to develop character is the home, and, just as the home loses disciplin ary character and home atmosphere and be comes easy-going and unhomelike, itsT work of character building is impaired, and the result is worse for the children who grow up in it Our present-day civilization has ,in it much less of this genuine home life than existed half a cen tury ago, and we are paying for it with a larger proportion of young men with -flabby char acters. Thisis a great fact which must be faced. It is an existing condition which cannot be blinked. Nor can it be changed by merely pointing out its existence. It is a great national tendency which only some other tendency can counteract. That counteracting tendency must be an in crease in the number of homes of genuine Christian atmosphere and parental discipline, instead of the decrease that has for some time been going on. While this is being done, and at all times, because perfection in that respect can not be expected, there should be a strengthen ing of the character-building influences and agencies which affect the lives of boys and young men outside their homes. Contribu tions of personal service and of money to the operation and , support of such agencies con stitute the finest sort of patriotism and philan thropy. A much larger devotion of public at tention and public funds to that sort of work would be a wise act for the preservation of our American institutions by assuring the right kind of citizens into whose hands to entrust them. We need in our work of character-building for the youth now with us and those to follow them a strengthening of home influence and disci pline, and as well we neeti an increase in, the number and strength and intensity of work of those character-building' influences, outside the home, which supplement home training and be come the only substitute for it when it is lack ing. The strength of a nation lies in character more than in education. We have been paying too great proportional attention to education. We must increase largely the more important factor of character building. , Motion Pictures and Personal , Right The rights of the individual in the matter of pictorial representations of his face receive a new interpretation in the decision of the appel late division of the supreme court in the Humis ton case that the exhibition of a motion picture cannot be enjoined because some person whose features are shown in the picture objects. Such personal rights, if rights they really are, have been variously modified tinder the vogue of photographic art Before the motion picture camera, which has shown no regard for persons from the first, they necessarily give way to the superior claims of the multitude to be amused or instructed. Kings enjoy no special privilege in the social equality of the films, and other people who are in any sense public characters earn) expect no immunity. ; As a matter of fact, have persons who achieve sufficient publicity to make their acts the subject of press reports any valid grievance against the public exhibition of their pictures? The analogy drawn between descriptive and pictorial publicity in the decision appears per fectly logical and just. The publicity in either case is contingent on its fairness; there has been no relaxation of the law's remedies against misrepresentation. Most people, indeed, may be supposed to take no offense at the sight of their pictures on the screen. They are, to be sure, in a hetero geneous company, yet it is a world company. The high and low are there, but not under conditions prejudicial to a sensitive reputation. As the penalties of publicity go, that of repre sentation in the movies would seem to be a mild one.

To the Editor of The Bee: In reading the report of the grand Jury I found that they made the statement that the mob that killed the negro (Brown) and burned the courthouse started from the South Side. We who live in that part of Oma ha that was formerly South Omaha want to refute the statement that the mob started from the South Side, for it started, as every one knows, from the vicinity of Gibson and Clontarf, being a number of miles from old South Omaha. i. Before we were annexed - to Omaha there was some discussion as to what would be the proper name to this part of Omaha, and I think i can claim the honor of first sug gesting the South Side. I suggested that title some weeks before the election was held on the question of the consolidation of the two cities and that is what we call It down here now. From the names of the parties arrested in connection with the work of the mob, I could find but very few that came .from the South Side. The mfstake of the grand Jury may have come from the fact that not one of them came from the South Side, and I do not think any of them came from as far south as Leavenworth street , There has been less of crimes committed on the South Side since we were annexed to Omaha than at any time in the past and we can boast of being the model part of the city of Omaha today. So I think It will be well for the Omahha papers to publish the fact that the mob did not come from the South Side at all and that very few people of the South Side took any part in the mob. FRANK A.

A Vienna newspaper prints a story to the effect that among the super stitious peasantry of the Tyrol, the belief has taken root that President Wilson is none other than the Crown Prince Rudolph, son of the late Em peror Francis Joseph. The crown prince, v so the myth runs, was not killed in the famous tragedy of 'the castle of Meyerling, back In 1889, but merely kidnaped by his enemies and a dummy was burled In his stead. Later,' so the story goes, he succeeded in escaping to America, where he assumed the name of Woodrow Wilson, and rose eventu ally to the presidency. DOT PUZZLE. The Day We Celebrate.
