What The Bee Stands Fort
1. 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.

when they use morgues as bridal parlors.
Steffansson's stories of how he lived in the
Dolarresrions and enjoyed himself ought to be
popular in Omaha right now.
Idaho has just succeeded in digging a couple
of men out of a mine; now if Illinois can get
some back into the mines, the balance will be
et up.
In the dear days of long ago the Kansas City
railroad yards ranked as the roughest in the
country; now they -will be classed as the
craziest ,

being hit harder than any of the large cities by
the coal shortage, but a little patience may see
as through.
Washington is about ready to send another
note to Mexico. Americans generally would
prefer, something the bandits down there can
comprehend. ,
v The "silence" and "hunger" strike xat Ellis
Island came to an end of its own weight, the

such proceedings disturb the authorities.
Emoeror Francis Toseoh had $50,000,000 in

America. Great wars usually are followed by
extensive migration of pictures and the like.
Another $2,000,000 office building for Omaha
has just been contracted for. Time was when
this would have been a "building boom" in itself,

The "A. B. C." erouo is again talking of
mediation between the United States and Mex
ico. This will be very acceptable, the body only
can find a way to make the bandits behave and
quit murdering American citizens.
Senator Hitchcock says the treaty will be
again presented to the senate this week, and a
compromise ratification obtained. This end
might have been reached in August, had the sen

thing less than his own way without regard to
Others. '
The government has finally concluded to
deport Emma Goldman, who will get to go back
to that dear old Russia, where she can practice
as well as preach anarchy. The only complaint
will be that the order has been too long de
layed. No complaint will be made that the closing
order issued by the local fuel director is not in
clusive. If he let anything get away it was un
intentional. The next thing to do is to obey
orders and save fuel till the famine is relieved
and the city is on a safe basis again.
Governor Stevens of California says he is
convinced of Tom Mooney's guilt, and that no
further clemency will be shown him. This may
be all right in California, but a lot of people
outside that state are not certain as to the fair
ness of trial and would like to see that point
cleared up,
I
Make It Snappy
v The South Dakota law governing presiden
tial primaries stipulates that each candidate for
state delegate must make a statement of his
policies and keep it within eight words. South
Dakota may be neither busy nor bored. It may
be merely wise. A candidate might disguise
his opinions in eight thousand words, but he
cannot in eight. He must say something. I
In brevity the language becomes a vehicle
of expression. In prolixity it can become the
method of suppression. The necessity of put
ting it over in eight words or less may drive
some of the candidates to the familiar quota
tions: "Millions for defense, but not a cent
tribute. One word had to be dropped. There
is a statement of policy which we suspect will
tget the candidate who uses it about two votes
in South Dakota.
"Never haul the old flage down" ought to
to strong against internationalism. We do not
know how it would work in South Dakota. In
Pennsylvania we know that "The old guard
dies, but never surrenders" would go big. Mr.
Penrose might run for president on that plat
form and never say another word. If democratic
candidates are at loss, how about "My bonnie
lies over the ocean?" In Mesapotamia probably,
s Chicago Tribune.
NO PLACE FOR CLASS PARTIES.
In projecting itself into the field as a bidder
for national power, the newly-hatched labor
party relies on class distinction for any success
that may come to it. It embraces everything
from mild socialism to outright bolshevism,
proposing every extravagance in the way of
governmental experimentation that has been
suggested any time in the history of man. Sober
thinking people should realize what is con
tained in the program of this outfit, and take
counsel accordingly.
Pretending to be .the champions of personal
liberty, this aggregation of theorists, dreamers
and downright anarchists purpose to put on the
individual such restrictions as will not only
dull his initiative, but will actually restrain him
in the exercise of his most sacred rights. In
their plan for nationalization of so-called "basic"
industries and various public services is con
tained the germ of ultimate commonalty of prop
erty, the goal to which bolshevism nievitably
tends. Under such arrangement industry is dis
couraged and "thrift languishes, for the idle
and the unthrifty fare as well in the end as the
energetic and foresighted.
Nebraska has no place in its program for
such unwisdom. Whatever of prosperity has
come to this state is the result of hard work
and prudent economy on the part of its people.
Its present population is made up largely, almost
exclusively, of the descendants of those vigorous
pioneers, who reclaimed the prairies and turned
them into fertile fields. These have not for
gotten, nor have the enterprising citizens who
came later, attracted by the opportunity offered
here, how the foundation of this commonwealth
was laid.
"Equality Before the Law," the motto of
Nebraska, excludes class parties. This prin
ciple was carried out in the constitution of the
state, is encased in its statutes, and should not
be departed from in any degree at any time,
that Nebraska may realize the promise of the
future as it has" prospered in the past because of
the true liberty it offers its citizens.
City and County Consolidation.
The Chamber of Commerce has gone on
record in favor of "a provision in the new con
stitution eliminating restrictions that now exist
thus making it possible to consolidate the city
and county of Omaha and provide means for
adjusting the debts between the city and county."
The Bee has long advocated city and county
consolidation with a view to centralizing author
ity and responsiblity, avoiding needless govern
mental machinery, and cutting out the waste of
duplicated effort and" expense. Just what plan
of merger Hie Chamber of Commerce may have
is not clear, but it would seem from the last
phrase appended to the resolution that some
notion is lurking, of a segregation of that part
of the county lying outside of the limits of the
city and an apportionment of existing debts be
tween them. This would mean either the crea
tion of a new county out of the disjoined area
or its union to one or more of the contiguous
counties. Such plan is at present completely
blocked by the constitutional provision demand
ing the consent of the voters of both partes of
a county necessary to its division, and we are
frank to confess to a very grave doubt as to
whether any constitutional convention would
override the protests sure to come from the in
habitants of the rural districts against anything
that would deprive them of the very exception
al advantages they now enjoy by being in the
some county with a wealthy metropolitan city
that pays nine-tenths of the bills.
Let us suggest a possible way we do not
say the only way to effect the desired
merger without incurring the antagonism or
ill feeling of our neighbors in the west part of
the county whose friendship we value and whose
social and commercial intercourse we want to
maintain and encourage. To force them into
the city on the same basis as our inhabitants,"
that is to say, to make them pay city taxes
without the possibility of direct benefits from
most of the city activities would, b'e unfair;
yet it would be perfectly feasible to keep the
cauntry as it is and make the city boundaries
coincide if the area included were formed into
two districts for taxing purposes, an urban
district with a city tax rate and a suburban
district with a county tax rate. The city proper
would of course from time to time have to be
enlarged as the adjoining territory were built up
and improved," but the strictly farming land
would always remain outside of the urban dis
trict This sort of a merger we believe is practicable
and within reach. We submit it far consideration.
Business Before Congress. .
The regular session of the Sixty-sixth con
gress, which opens today, faces a docket of im
mense importance as well as size. Domestic
affairs are to have precedence, after having been
almost wholly excluded for over two years by
the exigencies of war. The special session
cleared the way for this, and advanced some
parts of work to a stage where final action may
be speedily had. Even if the treaty of peace be
returned to the senate by the president at once,
it should not occupy the time of that body to
the detriment of other legislation. The house
has passed the Esch bill, which looks to the
regulation of the railroads after their return to
corporate ownership, while the senate has given
considerable attention to the Cummins bill, and
this will permit early action on the main points
at least. No revenue legislation is expected, be
cause of the attitude of the president who has
threatened with veto any amendment to the law
as it stands, but appropriations for the next
year will permit the exercise of such economy
as in effect will' amount almost to a reduction
of taxes. The house is about ready to adopt a
budget reform measure, and generally the senti
ment is in favor of saving money in government
operations. With a lot of vexatious matters left
over from the democratic days out of the way,
the session is expected to produce much of
good.
The cardinal lord archbishop of Paris pro
tests against the "immodest" dances introduced
by Americans. My dear, just recall that Paris
Is the home of the "Red Mill" and the "Dead
Rat," and that the can-can had its origin there,
and you may find the right angle of vision on
this.
Speculating as to the contents of Mr. Wil
son's next message to congress may take your
mind off of the coal situation, but it will not
help in answering any of the great questions.
Maybe if the market price of hogs and cattle
continues to go down, the cost of meat at retail
will follow suit in time, :
Germany Looks to Next Time
In April 1919, Matthias Erzberger, leader
of the center party in the old Reichstag of Ger
many, prominent in the movement to reorgan
ize the country, and undenied power, sent a
lengthy circular letter to the leaders of thought,
commerce, industry, finance and politics of the
former empire, discussing the situation, and
outlining his views of a policy to pursue for the
future. Erzberger admits the crushing defeat
of the Germans, but counsels his countrymen
not to lose heart because of that. It is a strug
gle for supremacy between the "continent and
overseas," the latter including England and
America, and, in his opinion, the continent
must eventually win. He does not dread France
in the next war, for France is "sick," suffering
from the exhaustion brought upon her in the
late war, and will never recover. The Polish
question is dealt with in detail, because of its
relation to Russia, in which the writer sees the
hope for Germany's return to power. .The con
cluding paragraphs of the letter, here repro
duced, contain the sentiment that breathes
through it all. He says:
But the main thing is constant propaganda
for years to come. The signing of the peace,
which may be formally done, does not, of
course, mean an end to the development of
our political ends. The Lithuainian and Uk
rainian affairs will always be of great im
portance to us. It is a question, of two points
of support for our policy in regard to Russia.
In all these eastern questions we must
not forget that they all hang together and
such in itself is merely a part of the great
Russian problem for us, just as this is merely
the last step in the accaunt to be settled with
Anglo-Saxons and toward the world dominion.
We need Lithuania and Ukrainia as Ger
man outposts if Poland must be weakened,
as France in the west, Poland in the east is
the cornerstone of Anglo-Saxon continental
power. Poland guarded, the way to Russia
is closed. If we succeed in keeping Poland
down, it will mean enormous gains for us.
In the first place, France's position on the
continent is, in the long run, untenable;
secondly, the way to Russia is then open,
that is evident even to a blind man. The
German future in Russia is now riper, after
being planted with German seed to come in
to the great German state. Nothing must dis
turb us in the great problems before us;
Poland is the solution, but a very powerful
obstacle.
Therefore, it is important not to lose cour
age, but to keep in mind that things might be
much worse than they are. On the other hand,
however, we must continue our work wisely
in the east, and ever keep before our eyes
the gigantic reward which we hope to obtain.
After we succeed in hindering the building
up of a strong Poland . then the future is
quite clear to -us. The Anglo-Saxon can
not close the road to Russia to us. We will
undertake the restoration of Russia and in
possession of such support we will be ready
within 10 or IS years to bring France, with
out any difficulty, into our power. The march
toward Paris will be easier than in 1914. The
last step but one, toward the world dominion
will then be reached. The continent is ours.
Afterwards will follow the last step, the
closing struggle between the continent and
the "Overseas."
Rid Schools of All Disloyalty
The extent to which bolshevism and anarchy
have crept into our most cherished institutions
has been revealed in New-York City, where IS
school teachers have admitted that they are fa
miliar with and friendly to the communist
party. Some already have been dismissed and
others will be subjected to searching inquiry.
If there is any place where radicalism must not
be tolerated it is in the schools, and little time
should be lost in separating such teachers from
the city's payroll.
The .children attending grade schools are at
a most impressionable age and they naturally
look up to their teacher as a very superior per
son. If not by direct methods, their little minds
can be stunted with the most subtle poison,
which eventually will kill their loyalty and re
spect for the flag. The very foundation of our
most sacred intsitutions is laid upon patriotic
instruction in the schools, and every plan to
Americanize the alien contemplates a thorough
course in English and history.
Steps should be taken' to learn if every
teacher can boast of 100 per cent Americanis'm,
for the members of this profession are the best
agents of good government, and their loyalty
must be proved beyqnd all suspicion. They are
sworn to uphold our institutions and to incul
cate in their pupils the spirit which emanates
from our national creed. Indianopolis Star.

of The Bee: Your editorial in today's

"Equality before the law."

Promise of the Kosy Cross.
Omaha, Nov. 30. To the editor of
The Bee: In the sands of time are
many footprints of that innumer
able caravan which for countless
centuries has preceded us on the
path of life.
To the eye of the trained and ever
observant tracker of this illimitable
waste appears signs and sundry to
kens left by those who have gone be
fore. Here perchance are marks be
tokening a "dry camp" with all its
attendant hardships, there the spot
where many rested and whiled away
a time In luxurious ease amidst the
sounds of running water and rust
ling herbage.
If It be true, that axiom, "That we
may best Judge the future by the
past," It would seem a worthy meas
ure to accept as guides upon this
journey those who In the past have
made most progress and have left
signs of having occupied the moat
accommodating resting places.
As to the individual, so to the peo
ples, and the nations, does this ap
ply. Here In the dim and distant past
do we find where a great nation has
disappeared. A carthage has been
overwhelmed. And, too, apparently
leaving scarce a trace.
There do we find a Greece, In
ruins 'tis true, but there is taught
a lesson of beauty and accomplish
ment, plan to the eye of every
papser-by.
Thus we are brought, to question
whether Carthage, the home of
Hannible, may not have contained
many rich, beautiful and valuable
secrets.
Some one has said, "there Is noth
ing new under the sun," and it
would seem that many of our vaunt
ed discoveries In sciende and me
chanics have had their counterparts
In a bygone age. ,
Hero of Alexandria had. his steam
engine of the turbine pattern thou
sands of years before Parsons of
England gave us his discovery.
The Chinese were possessed of the
knowledge of that wizard gunpowder
hundreds of years before Roger Ba
con in his narrow cell, had met his
personal devil with his fiery tongs or
given the western world its knowl
edge of this explosive.
We know that Napoleon followed
the military precepts of Hannible
and the legal theories of Cato and
it is fair to presume that he had
sources of knowledge of these sub
jects not generally known or acces
sible to the people of his time.
Galilio, Sir Francis Bacon, and
many others, seemed to draw knowl
edge and inspiration ' from sources
secluded from the common run of
men. . .,
Therefore, In these times or dis
order and unrest, it is meet that we
should take council of the sages
of the great minds which have from
time to time appeared upon life s
highway to the end that we may
perchance find means to so order our
lives both personally and collectively,
as a state and nation, that these dis
orders may be abated and the people
shall go about their business of lite
in a happy and orderly manner as
befits the citizens of so great and
glorious a nation.
Here be we, a highly Intelligent
people, surrounded by the greatest
abundance and plenty of those
things most dear to a mundane ex
istence, in a land truly of "milk and
hor.ey," yet startled daily, almost
hovrly, by oft recurring tales of the
most violent disorders ana upiicttvuin
among the people.
Should we not, If we may, learn
how similar crises have been met In
the past? . t M
What efTorts have been put forth
to protect the arts and sciences of
civilization and progress, In how far
these efforts were successful or in
what manner they met with failure?
It has been seen that many of the
great leaders of the past in every
walk of life have enjoyed this coun
cil, and it is to be hoped that our
citizens, being freemen and leaders
one and all, will each individually
and 'for himself prosecute a search
for the means whereby he may come

- Cold Weather Birds.
By APEUA BELLE BffAHD.
You will never believe unless you
look for them how many of our wild
birds brave the cold weather and do
not migrate south for the winter.
The lists vary in different parts of
the country and it is not possible to
j give tham all here, but you can take
the common winter birds of New
York state to start with, then add
or subtract as you identify the birds
in your own locality.
Among the most common birds is
the chickadee. He is round and
plump and gray, has a black throat
and vvears a black cap. The chicka
dees gather in flocks and, alighting
on a tree, completely fill it. One
sometimes sees a tree as full of
chickadees as a cherry tree is of
cherries and they hang to the twigs
in much the same fashion, many of
th?"i cnmpletely upside down.
The brown creeper is in evidence,
too. Small, slender, streaked brovn
above, white underneath, he daits
quickly around the tree trunks, run
ning up spirally.
The white-breasted nuthatch re
mains all winter. He has a small,
compact, rather flat, body, slate gray
above, pure white underneath, and
the top of his head is black. You
see him creeping over tree trunks,
often head downward.
The junco is about the size of a
sparrow, rather thick body, dull
slate color all over except on lower

What the Dictionary Tells.
By ISABEL W. CLATTON.
Do you know our big brother, the
dictionary? If you do not know him,
make his acquaintance at once. He
is always willing to help you, but
as he has so many people to help,
you must let him know when you
need help. He can help you in more
ways than you realize.
Do you know how many different
questions the dictionary can an
swer. Iu the first place, he tells
the various meanings of all the
words in the English langauge. The
words are arranged according to
the alphabet. The definitions are
given usually in the historical or
der. That is, the oldest meaning is
given first and then the later ones.
The Standard dictionary reverses
this order and gives for convenience
the latest meaning first. So if you
are using any other dictionary than
the Standard, remember that the

line between upper and lower breast
is sharply defined, upper dark, lower

Last Christmas morning on a tree
near my window I counted five dif
ferent kinds of wild birds, among
them the downy and hairy wood
peckers. These two look alike ex
cept that Hairy is larger than
Downy. They are black and white,
white underneath and on the back
of the head is a bright red patch.
Then there are the small brown
tree sparrow and, less often seen,
the snow bunting, horned lark and
golden-crowned kinglet.

meaning given last is the correct
one, while in the Standard, the
meaning given first is correct.
The dictionary also tells us if the
word begins with a capital letter,
if it has a hyphen, how to pronounce
it, how many syllables it has, what
they are, what its history or tey
mology is, and what are its syno
nyms or other words with the same
meaning. In it, too, are found the
explanation of the noted characters
of fiction, legend and mythology,
such as Rip Van Winkle, the Ar
gonauts and Achilles.
In front of the dictionary, is a
history of the English language with
rules for spelling. In the back is a
gazeteer. This is a list of geogra
phical places. It tells us where the
place is, how large it is, and how
the name should be pronounced.
In the back, too, is the biographical
dictionary which contains the names
of thousands of famous persons, a
slight description of each, and the
dates of birth and death. If the date
of death is missing, it means the
persorj is still living. There is also
a section in the back called pictorial
illustration which contains pictures
illustrating Certain subjects such as
architecture, war, mechanical de
vices and many others.
Spend your next idle hour with
the dictionary. You will be surprised
to find how interesting it is.
