THE OLD YEAR AND THE NEW.
The year 1919 disappointed the hope of
many, chiefly because they had expected too
much.' Itnid not usher in a millenium nor an
era of universal peace. Its closing hours finds
that the events of the preceding year did not
radically change human nature. Progress was
made, however, and if the higher hopes of
earnest idealists were not realized, the common
good of mankind has been appreciably ad
vanced. A bill of particulars will not be filed
here, but the fact that society has set about to
reorganixe and reconstruct itself along lines
that show promise of greater usefulness ie the
proof of improvement. Much of the world's
life is yet disturbed by the effects of the war,
but the fluid condition of affairs is surely giv
ing way to crystallization, and the future may
be better visioned now than twelve months ago.
For 1920 the world is faced with the task of
putting into practice a few of the things that
have been determined upon as needful. Na
tions have before them problems that must be
settled at home, and with which it would be
unfair and unwise as well for outsiders to in
terfere. These are to be adjusted on a new
basis, however, that of the relation between
one nation and all other nations. Internation
alism, as commonly understood, is not involved
in this, for each of the great family of nations
is to retain its individuality, merely being
brought to realize a little more fully that its
selfish aims can not be allowed to disturb the
others in the full enjoyment of their rights and
privileges. No other result of the war will
bring greater benefit in years to come than thia.
It is not too much to expect that the days
just ahead of us will see a cessation of the tur
moil that has disturbed human affairs for so
long. The madness of war is spending its
force, and combatants are relinquishing the
field from sheer exhaustion. Political and in
dustrial disputants will continue, but the en
ergies of mankind will be directly employed in
bringing forth the things that are needed, and
in steady, useful work will be found the panecea
for unrest. Idleness begets dicontent, and in
dustry is its cure.
Each man to his task, and the close of 1920
will bring regrets only to those who have
longed for miracles.

' By Districts or at Large?
. The debate in the bar association convention
over the method of selecting supreme court
judges touches one of the fundamentals of free
government. It is proposed that six of the
judges be chosen from districts and only the
chief justice be elected by the state at large.
The supposed advantage of this lies in that it
will make certain that from each of certain
designated subdivisions of the state one judge
of the supreme coure will be selected.
Whether the benefit that will accrue to the
district itself extends to the state as a whole
may be questioned. The plan will narrow the
choice of candidates, and tend to establish the
parochial control of the court. In the lower
courts the effort has been to so partition the
state as to provide convenient access for the
citizens to courts of justice. In these the laws
of the state are variously construed and ap
plied, the ends of justice always supposed to be
kept in sight. It is for the supreme court to
harmonize the divergences that may creep into
the decisions or practices of the subordinate
tribunals, a function that is not only important
but vital, and which should not be circum
scribed in any way by the possibility, however
remote, of local interest.
It is not shown that the jurisprudence of
Nebraska has suffered in any material respect
because of the custom of election of judges of
the highest state court by the votes of all the
people. Neither does it appear that this will
be improved by allowing the selection to be
made by divisions.
The nonpartisan primary choice of candi
dates has not, perhaps, -worked out ideally, but
it is in keeping with the spirit of democracy
as at present understood. Difference of opinion
as to the qualification of the candidates fre
quently exist between the voters and the mem
bers of the bar, but the latter should at all
times remember that the choice finally rests
with the voters. Judges may be' "experts," as
one lawyer characterizes them, but they also
are public servants, and sometimes the one who
is nearest the people gives the most satisfac
tion, because his decisions have a human qual
ity, and are not all conceived fn the atmosphere
of pure reason.
Why ahould the Intercollegiate Socialist so

Our Free Legal Aid
From Vale to Volley?
From the Chicago Tribune.
Representative Siegal of the house commit
tee on immigration, who accompanied the Bu-
ford to the three-mile limit when the ship
tarted on the red exodus, says that Emma
Goldman, Mr. Berkman, and the other 249 radi
cals were luxuriously accommodated on the
vessel and were enjoying themselvei denounc
ing the barbarity of the United Mates.
They have warm underwear, plenty of
money, good clothes, and much baggage. The
destination of the Buford was not revealed
when it sailed, but the general direction was
back to boleshevism. ....
Mr. Berkman, in the course oi nis oeparting
A that he exoected to join Lenine
in the management of soviet Russia. This was
one or tne several inings wm nugm iuuni
that the reds were not fully informed, when
they went away, as to alt the beauties and reali
ties of the proletarian revolution.
To Mr. Berkman it is a prontame aosirac-
tion. To Mr. Lenine it is a gory fact, kept a
fact by healthy, good nat ired young Chinamen
who have no emotional reticences with regard
to slaughter. We have not heard Mr. Lenine
asking for any help in the leadership of the
revolution. His secret service is reported to be
good. y , . . ,
We imagine Mr. Lenine is getting a wireless
report fronv an agent regarding the amiable
intentions of Mr. Berkman. We imagine him
asking his secretary to make a note to have
four healthy, good natured Chinese killers meet
Mr. Berkman at the dock. A tew rrencn gnosis
... ... d-i
would De giaa io say somcuung iu bhw
if they could find a medium. Danton would be
one unless even ghosts have sardonic pleas
ures and Danton et al. prefer to watch Mr.
Berkman and grin.
Russia is not a olace of warm underwear,
much money, warm clothing,. and personal ef
fects in bags. Russia, having the fact of the
revolution, it cold and starving, with little
clothing and with valueless money.
If Mr. Berkman does not lose nis nead ne
will lose his flannels. The comrade will not
want to shock the shivers of the patriots by
remaining comfortable in his warmth. Neither
will Miss Goldman. They will take them off,
although it is not the season. They will not
want to keep their sound currency when so
much soviet money is to be had at the pre
vailing rate of exchange.
The essential of American boishevism ts
that the condition- of society attacked shall re
main invulnerable to attack. If our reds de
stroyed it they would destroy themselves. They
cannot have warm underclothing and plenty, of
monev unless this dastardly society produces
and protects. vThey can have warm principles.
They need to assault but not to succeed.
Our ruddiest red would become ashen if he
thought that the next speech would bring the
revolution. Mother Jones has the right idea.
She says she is a bolshevist, but they can't send
her where boishevism is. The reds in New
York -who have not vet been taken into custody
for deportation attacked the tins island terry
the other day in an attempt to release tne radi
cals still held in detention. When Goldman
and Berkman were ordered out they appealed
to the courts.
They want society as organized to protect
them in their rights. Their rights are the rights
they attack, protected, by the institutions they
attack, and they say that the United States is
barbarous because it is sending them from a
land not properly and humanely organized to
one which is.
We are not barbarous. We hope Berkmrn
is not met by the healthy, good natured young
Chinese, who think a good deal less of a human
head than of a chicken head. We hope Emma
keeps her underwear. We hope that the rela
tion of one ootato to a bushel of rubles will re
main unimpaired. We wish them all well in
Russia.

C. A. B. -I married my present
husband two years ago. Prior there
to I had been married and my ror
mer husband died. leaving me with
three small .children. My present
husband knew that I had these chil
dren and agreed that he would take
care of them the same as If he had
been their father. Lately he haa be
roma verv mean to the children and
stated that he would no longer live
with me unless I put the children m
a puhllo Institution, which I positive
ly refuse to do. Does this consti
tute cruel and Inhuman treatment
and If he leaves me on that account
can I sue him for divorce and re
cover alimony aa well as support for
the children?
Answer You can.
Insurance.
N. B. H. I had my barn Insured
and In the policy there was a clause
that provided that the policy should
be void If I "kept, used or allowed on
the premises gasoline or petroleum
or any of its products of greater in
flammability than kerosene oil." I
had been keeping my Ford car with
its gasoline tank in the barn, al
though at the time of the fire In the
barn the automobile or tne gasoune
tank was not there and no trace of
gasoline was found. The insurance
company claims that I violated the
contract and refuses to pay me. Can
I recover?
Answer Tou cannot. Tou should
have kept your contract and had en
dorsed thereon consent to keep the
car in the building.

V. R K. Please let me know
whether under a policy insuring

policy provided for payment 80 days
after notice and proof of loss that if
the automobile is recovered after the

Windbreaks are things that break

and hikers are sometimes mighty
glad of ne to keep the camp fire
from being blown to the ground and
to keep from being blown upon and
chilled themselves while resting
after a brisk hike.
There are natural windbreaks such
as high banks and big rocks, and in
the lee of these you often find char
red embers showing that someone
has taken advantage of the protec
tion they give. But banks and rocks
are of no use if the wind blows to
ward them; they must make a wall
between the wind. and you to be of
any service. So you can not always
depend on them even though you
happen to be in their neighborhood.
A good plan when you go on an
all day hike, especially in windy
weather, is to take your belt axe and
rubber blanket with you. The axe

are where you can get wood and

Stockholder.
P. M. I am a stockholder in a
corporation and I told the directors
that I could sell a considerable
amount' of stock in the company to
some of my friens. I did not say
anything about the compensation,
but assumed that I would be paid
the reeular commission that was be
insr paid to other salesmen. Am I
entitled to the same commission
that the company paid to other men
in the absence of an express contract
on the part of th company to pay
me?
Answer There is no reason why
an ordinary stockholder should not
contract with his corporation with
the same freedom as an individual,
provided only that the weight of his
holdings of stock does not compel the
making of contracts with him unfa
vorable to the interest of his fellow
stockholders. The fact of his inter
est in the corporation may, however,
lend force to the contention that he
intended that the service rendered
by him to be gratuitous, but where
that was not the Intention, and al
though there was no express con
tract for pay, the stockholder would
be entitled to compensation for hi
services the same aa paid to that of
any other salesmen.
Service of Summons.
C. H. D. If summons are not

and you have made no appearance
In the case the foreclosure proceed
ings as far as you are concerned
would be absolutely void. The fact
of your making a sale provided you
were a party to the suit and service
had upon you would make no dif
ference. I would advise you seeing
a lawyer for the purpose of looking
up the records.

The statement made at Lincoln by General
Pershing, that boishevism is doomed in Amer

shevism is waning, even in Russia, where
has been given a fair trial. Lenine and Trotzky
realize it, although the ejid may not yet be ap
parent to their followers. Among the' peas
antry these reformers have encountered the
rock on which their scheme of altruistic com
munism is going to pieces. Whatever willing
ness the city workers may have evinced toward
communistic endeavor, the peasant has re
mained a steadfast individualist. He is willini?
that in the cities tools and product alike may
be owned and shared in common,. but he waits
to own and control his land for himself.
This question is open yet, but its final solu
tion is forecast by the attitude of the agricul
tural Soviets. They resolutely decline to accept
the property in common idea of the urban
grqups, and a clash between the two ideas is
impending.
Another factor is that the dreamers at the
head of the bolsheviki have found out that con
tinuous and satisfactory production depends oi.
intelligent direction and management, and that
this can not be furnished by the proletariat.
They hope to provide for this- in the future by
educating and training their own experts, but
at . the present they must depend on foreign
overseers. Furthermore, the "short hour" day
has failed utterly to meet the requirements, and
Russian factory workers are back on ten and
twelve-hour schedules, and some of them even
longer.
In plain words, the communistic idea has
again clashed ith human nature, and gone to
pieces, just as it has in the past. The bits of
foam from the Russian wave that splashed
over into, the United States will disappear,
leaving no trace on our institutions.

Insurance is an issue that the sinner can't
avoid unless he wants to see his wealth and hap
piness destroyed. Alas for those who put their
trust in chemicals and hose! The sneaking blaze
may fail to notify the watchman's nose, and
while the sleepy 'fireman hunts a tic to match
his socks, the flame may reach a height from
which it's visible for blocks.
Rut Joseph Barker does his best to guard llie
public weal by selling cold insurance under, sig
nature and seal, providing that when luck lias set
your property alight, the company will pony up
and make the matter right; so when possessions
climb aloft in curling wreaths of smoke, you're
able to regard it as a Charlie Chaplin joke.
If your alert employe should become a skill
ful thief, Joe Barker will requite you with finan
cial relief. If plate glass in your window front
should get a fatal whack, his policy assures ,you
you will get your money back. If you should
bend a fender in a senseless motor wreck, he'll
mail you in the course of time a soft and sooth
ing check.
His nature, as you thus observe, his talent
and his trend, is versatile employment as the
public's thoughtful friend. He serves on all
committees boosting Omaha's affairs, and large
responsibility ubiquitously shares. He has a
broad and bonny smile, a handshake full of pep,
this competent possessor of an enviable rep.

lower etid of each stake to a point
and then drive both deep into the

ground is frozen, use low-branching
trees instead. Put a pole across
from one stake to the other, resting
it on the forks or crotches, and lay
other poles slanting from the ground
to the cross-pole, the slant toward
the wind. Over this framework put
plenty of brush. In summer, any
kind of branches will do, in winter
use evergreen.

"It is a promise of the govern
ment to pay the holder of the bond
a certain sum of money."
"Why does the government make
such promises?"
"Well, you see, when a private
rerson needs more money than he
has, many times, he is able to bor
row from some one else. Often, he
gives in return for the money he
borrows a promise to pay bark at a
certain time the amount he borrows
together with a certain additional
amount called interest and given as
payment for the use of the money.
This nromise to pay is called a
promissory note and the person to
whom the promise has been made
can collect the amount in court.
"Now, when the government
needs more money than it has, it
can do exactly the same thing.
Promises to pay made by the gov
ernment in this manner are called
bonds. The government prints
these bonds or promises to pay.
Then it sells them to whoever
wishes to buy. For instance, the
man who lost this bond paid to the
government $100 and he received for
it the bond. The bond is nothing
but a promise of he government to
pay to him in 1939, $100, and every
year before that time, a certain sum
as interest. A bond is merely a
means by which the government
borrows money.
