Homo -Rule Chartar for Omaha, with City Manager form of Government.- , Si CONGRESS AND THE CENSUS. nr........ ,u. ...j:. ...... -r it. fierhip of the house of representatives on the basis of the 1920 census are coming forward in Congress, and those so far chiefly discussed do jfaot contemplate the reduction of the number of trepre?offatives allotted to any stare. This will be generally applauded, for the people of any Jstate would resent being deprive of a single 'jjmcmber of the great group of representatives. That the number of members hat grown to a ; point considered unwieldy by some is only a i jtbpeful sign, for it indicates a corresponding in 'ferease in" the population represented, and there fore in the interests concerned. As most of the tujiness of the body is transacted in committees, 'ind few if liny material modifications of impor tant laws are made after the measures come into y line house, the addition of lorty-eight members V 11 1 uvujr ww a uui a vi jjj v sses of legislation. Discussion as to the conditions in the south, Swhere the vote of a'considerable element of the population is suppressed, will be revived, and probably will take the same turn as it has for many years. The obvious unfairness of allow ing representation in congress to- rest on popu lation and not on voting strength has been (urged many times, but always the condition set a , . .. - j j l .;sap in tne soutn nas oetn permwea io continue. j The', plea that the race question is a local one r ! vill again be raised, but the objection to it is j iiat the repression of the negro in local affairs I ihould not operate to limit his representation in i :otigress. He is justly entitled, to be. represented ' ! here, but in all conscience he 1 should be per il nitted a voice in selecting those who go ,to j Washington in his name. ! , Quite as important as the matter of the j louse itself is the question of pqlijtical party ',, ! nanagement, which is "involved in' the settle j nent. Both the great parties accept the member ! hip of congress as a basis for rcpresentatloff V j n the 'national con ventionk, and in those states ; rhere the jrimary election determines the choice i if delegates, the congressional district is tjje init. Something of injustice, would he worked . gainst, the voters where a change in this would j educe the number of delegates to which a state j s entitled. ' ! ; Nebraska, should not and probably will not' ! required to suffer any diminution in its dele . ; ;atjon at Washington. The population f this i itate has not increased as rapidly as that of : bme.o'thefs, but its general importance does not ' tit on population alone. In everything that ' j aak.es for growth Nebraska shows advance. Its nnual addition to the wealth of the country s :io' notable as to attract general attention; the ' iffuah'ty of its citizenship is shown in its "expendi lures for the. maintenance of those great schools iind churches that have given the state such jitgh 'place in the world as a -corimonwealth of Intellect, spirituality and deep culture, and these ftlements demand recognition that" is not de L-, lerved. by mere numbers alone.On merit we leserve the sue members of the house now al lotted the state. I r Definitely, the 'house of representatives, U e expression of our idea of national govern ed. - It is the popular branch of congress, folding its commission direct from the people,; vf hanging its membership. -biennially, and afford g, the only means, of voicing the prevailing - Ithought of the citizenry on the issues as they . 'arise or .deyelop from day to day., It is, there- !re, of prime importance that this body be kept ot 'only "responsive but tauly representative, nd this can not be accomplished by setting an arbitrary basis for membership at a figure so igh as will defeat fhe letter as well yas the spirit of the Constitution. ' ' Investment. That Has Paid WelL J About twenty-five years ago The Bee urged ;haV the matter of reclaiming arid regions of the west be turned over to the federal .govern ; ment, it being the only agency through which ,the vast projects could be successfully financed ;nd managed. Twenty years ago this idea had taken root, and the work commenced. Now the s fnnual report of the reclamation service sets out it 4nm ik hHinn inet nvi til VrtmmA i' Produced more than $150,000,000 in crops. ; A I ! total of 2,648,000 is under irrigation, a little more ',' lhan half being under federaj supervision' and the test under piivate projects.. The- Ptvenue is fciore than sufficient to pay the charijk against jhe land and returns a handsome income to the fwners. No investment, has paid better than r at made when the government took up the ork of impounding wasted waters and spread- !ag them over idle land. The desert hat liter lly been made to blossom like the rose, and housandsrof happy home exist' where before ivas only wilderness. And there Is yet plenty, to At idone along this line. v ' Use and -Abuse of Credit i Credit, according to an Omaha business man, s the greatest asset in the world, and his dec oration that 90 per cent of the world's business i s 'carried on through its use is probably true. I iven in the business of running a household, :redit often " plays an important part. While J. ;here are many men and women that take justi ., iable pride in paying cash for their purchases, ijthere may be times when this is not convenient, , iSand' prevents, buying at an advantageous time. ,xthers therarc whp abuse the privilege of cred- it, buy more than they can afford, or neglect the obligation for prompt meeting of their obli gations to pay. ' Merely because one. makes use of the facility for credit it not any reason to fall a week or a month behind in domestic finance, although it may often offer the temptation. Emergencies sometimes arrive when those who have always paid cash would be benefited if they had es tablished a line of credit, either at a bank or at a store, but being unknown and untried, expe rience difficulty in the sudden necessity for ac commodation. -J v. - , : . m . The wise use of credit adds greatly to the efficiency of modern life, but it should be re membered that prompt collections are the life of business, and willfully to make a man who has sold you something wait beyond the ap pointed time is not only unwise but is putting an unnecessary burden on business. Justice Between. Company and Public. Almost exactly five years ago something in the nature of an armistice was declared between the people of Omaha and the public utility cor poration which furnished them electric light and power. . The United States supreme court decided that the company had a perpetual fran chise. The Chamber of Commerce investigated its affairs and made a declaration of the ap proximate value of its property. The company reduced its rates. The city voted to give it a new contract for street lighting, After years of liti gation, legislation and stump-speaking, there ensued a period of relative peace. I 1 ( The Company now comes before the city commission with a request for permission to in crease its rates. It points out that gas, tele phone and street railway rates have increased in the last four years and it argues that the causes which forced these advances affect it equally.' On the other hand, those opposing the increase argue that the company has. benefited by vastly increased business -and by economies of operation' to an extent riot true with other public utilities. - : These Ve ascertainable matters. They are susceptible of proof. They are in' the realm of fact not fancy.' The company should support its claim by a frank disclosure of its needs; any thing less will sot suffice and will react against the company's interest, i Those who oppose a rate increase should confine their efforts to an analysis designed to prove the company's show ing either inconclusive or ;false; anything more will be out of place. , The city commission, in exercising its rate-regulation- function, is a quasi-judicial body. It should recognze the fact, and undoubtedly will. It must, if the public interest is to be served. A decision unfair to the company will mean a re newal of litigation, for the 'courts will protect the .company s property against rates that are confiscatory; a decision biased in the company's favor means the certain resumption of a cam paign for a competing plant, .with prospects of litigation and turmoil. N, either alternative is to be wished, et ill-considered action might make one or the other a necessity. The commission's task is to mal$e a decision, supported by the facts, which cannot be assailed successfully by the company and which is so eminently fair that it will have the approval of the public. It is a real chore,, but by no means impossible of accomplishment , ; At the- Basia df Prosperity. . ' v-v . . Other people than the farmers have their trials and tribulations in this period of read justment, - Yet the agricultural situation is rightly receiving the greatest part of public at tention. This is because only out of successful agriculture can grow successful manufacturing ani healthy business life. What is true in the case of the entire nation is particularly true of Nebraska and the other states of the Middle West. The only foundation on which may be built the happiness and welfare of a people is successful agriculture. A year ago the farmers were advised from many quarters to increase their production to meet an alleged shortage of foodstuffs. There was talk at that time on the farms of reducing the acreage, but the harvest witnessed an in crease of 13 per cent in the1 production of 'the ten principal crops over the average for, five years. It is said that this output is actually worth $3,000,000,000 less at current prices than the smaller crop of the previous year. There is now a plan afoot to organize a : vasf credit for financing the export of farm produce, although figures indicate that Europe has already bought more than our entire surphis, If these figures are correct, the European nations must have ob tained credit long ago, aided by American money, to raid the market when the farmer could not get sufficient credit to protect himself, , - The farmer has had too much advice, and unless American' business becomes .more prac tical in its 'attitude, the farmer will simply out line a program of his own and rely on his own efforts to save himself; even at the1 expense of other business. The two weak spots in agri culture are marketing and credit, and unless these needs are, met in a practical way, no ad vice, sympathy or pats on, the back will turn the farmer from the , determination to meet them in. his own way. Health commissioners complain that the re prehensible custom of kissing persists in spite of warnings. Sue. What does either kisser 'or kissee care for a few million germ, more or less? North Dakota bankers are optimistic, and insist that all will come out right. It will, if the people only quit jazzing around and go about paying their bills.' American ships are to be moveable section of the desert, but this is to affect only the pas sengers.' Sailors long ago gave over their grog. Canada seems to feel the same way about Article X. Gradually the position of the senate, is being justified. ' If the price of candy does not slump, saying it with flowers would enjoy considerable popu larity.

ONE learns from so disinterested a source as the Herald-Examiner that Bernard Shaw predicts "inevitable war between , England and the United States." We understood the old boy had not been well since the war, but we did not know that his mind was quite gone. "WHY' DRAG IN VELASQUEZ?" (From "the South Haven Tribune.) , "Cartoons and Caricatures" was the sub ject of Mrs. E. B. Main's paper. She told us particularly of Bud Fisher, the originator of y "Mutt and Jeff," and how seriously he takes his "art," and also of the immense fortune ' he has accumulated through these charac . - ters who are so real, to him and so funny , andcrude to others. She also mentioned 1 John T. McCutcheon and Briggs. - THE attitude of the Greeks toward "that fine democrat Venizelos'' reminds onr learned contemporary, the Journal, of the explanation given by the ancient Athenian who voted against Aristides; he was tired of hearing him called "the Just." It is an entirely human sentiment, one of the few that justify, the term "human race." It swept away Woodrow the Idealist, and all the other issues that parties set up. If it were not for the saturation point, the race would. Be in danger of becoming inhuman. ' A Classical Who's Who. Sir: It is most humiliating that the whole Line following should have needed instruction concerning Socrates, Epictetus and Cato. 1 think you should begin a series of educational articles under the title, "Who's Who in Classic Lore." Since poetry is more easily remembered than prose, they might take the form of versus me morialed, something Ilk this: -,. . What human tumblebug of old ' , ,W ' ; A stone .uphill unceasing rolled?

SMALL TOWN STUFF. (From the Lancaster,' Wis., Teller.) ' The low down scurvy half-breed that swiped our log chain from the bridge where we were working does not need, to bring it back as we have another one, but if there is a hell for dogs I hope he gets a seat in the front row with my compliments. , WE quite understand that if Mr. Moisei- witsch . is to establish himself with the public he must play old stuff, even such dreadful things as the Mozart-Liszt "Don Giovanni." It is with Chopin yalses and Liszt rhapsodies that a pian ist plays an audience, into a hall, but he should put on some stuff to play the audience out with. Under this arrangement those of us who have heard Chopin s Kantasie-Js often as we can en dure may; come late, while those who do not "understand" Debussy, Albeniz. and other mod erns may leave early. The old stuff is just as good today as it was 20 years ago,, but some of us ancients have got past that stage of mu sical development. Explaining a. Landslip.

The public is In the habit of using tine oxide ointments for blisters. burns, sunburns and - many ' other mild skin ailments. This salve has taken the place of the old-time salves which mother used to make. In the olden times nearly every family had its healing salve made from a receipt handed down from I mother to daughter through many I generations. In the main .they consisted of aromatio herbs and roots Cooked up with some grease, suet, hog fat, goose fat, eto. They . cured in all cases where there was a strong tendency to spontaneous cure, but the faith of the family was strong and great was the family pride in its family salve. Then we grew somewhat ashamed of old-fashioned things, or maybe we lost the art of finding the neces sary herbs in the woods, or maybe it was too much trouble to find the herbs, to gather them, and then to cook, them into a salve, At any rate, we got in the habit of passing It all up and instead .buying a Jar of sine ointment from the drug store. I doubt if we gained anything by taxing on this new stuff instead of the family salve, but the change has been made and zinc ointment has found its way into the family medi I elne chest beside the jar of cold cream. Since we have it tne -doctors are trying to make it as good as possible. . Moat of the zinc ointment Is made : from benzoinated lard. In fact, at the present time that is the way It must be made if the druggist follows the official directions, when Dr. Torald Sollman submitted the matter to some 30 leading skin specialists two-thirds of them favored having it Wade with petrolatum, ordinarily called vaseline. Instead. They said the odor of lard was objectionable to many people. Lard quickly be t comes rancid and rancid lard is not only objectionable in odor, but it mav be somewhat irritating. It might be worth while to smell the zinc ointment before using it to see if the lard in it is rancid. Lard Is a food and one for the want of which many people suffered during the world" war. The people of mora than one nation suffered from fat deprivation. We I might as well save lard for food wherever possible. . Petrolatum does not be come rancid, ft is-not offensive, it spreads well, it is smooth, and it makes a good protecting surface. The object -of most o' the domestic ointments Is to c6ver the surface, exclude air, and protect while' na ture proceeds with-the cure. , Whatever be the base of the oint ment, very little of the grease ab sorbs. There, are a .raft of flesh foods and skin, foods which are boueht because of the mistaken no tion that -they pass through the skin and squat right down below when they enter as fat which fills out the spaces and smooths out the wrinkles. For this there is no basis. , Dr. Sollman started a line of ex periments with animal, vegetable, and mineral fats to discover which were best absorbed by the skin. He speedily came to the conclusion that thev were all on par. None ab sorbed to any extent. TMen why maka sine ointment with expensive "sheep wool fat or edible lard, or any vegetable fat? Have it made from petrolatum and get a product which keeps. ' i , When Vanity Drives. :" Marftart M. S. writes: ''Ever since I can remember I have had a horror of what is called a 'pug nose,' ana as a result I imagine I have one. My nose does turn up, although I never have been told that It is out of shape. It is constantly on my mnd. I never feel like dressing up to go out. No matter how nice I look I think I look awful Just on ac count of my nose. For days I. shut myself up in my room. But here is what I want to know: Always brooding on my nose has started me to 'monkeying with it.' For almoct a vear I have been picking at it and blowing. It, etc. I think by so doing I am putting it more out of shape. Isn't that foolish? But I cannot help it. I never yet looked at a mirror without loking a my profile. Perhaps you could tell me something of the structure of . the nose and whether putting the fingers in It will hurt it any. Mine seems to be flabby as though the bone only comes half way." I REPLY. I ' disregard your request and publish yur letter. It may keep some other girl from repeating your foolishness. The bone . of the nose should only come part way down. Fortunately we do not belong to horny-nosed tribe. . You cannot think your nose out of shape. Some people hald that thinking can tie a knot in the liver, but no one claims that power over his nose. I dare say if you pulled and pushed day by day you might -eventually change the shape of your nose somewhat, but not much. Of course you can push your mind a good deal if you are de termined to do so.' But at that you cannot make a lunatic out of your self. The good Lord has protected you against yourself fairly well. What you need is disciplining. , Try Fooling Tho Doctor. Inquirer writes: '"1. I am a young- girl of 18, 6 feet 4 inches tail, ana weigh 140 pounds. I have noticed that the majority of girls of my height and age usually weigh 120 pounds or less. How much over weight am I? ' "2. What is the best way to re duce to an average weight? I am fond of sweet things of alK, kinds and also eat a large amount of bread with my meals. Do you think the bread and sweets tend to make me increase in weight? REPLY. l! The weight proper for your age, height and sex, is 120 pounds. Big boned people weigh more than those with small bones, muscular people, and fat ones. 1 2. In the language of the street. "you said a mouthful"- "I am fondj or sweet tnings oi an tcinaB ana aiso eat quite a large amount of bread." To- lose weight eat no sweet things and little bread.

To the Editor of The Bee: A great deal is written in t the papers about - the . autoists running into pedestrians and it is deplorable the number of accidents there are. But their is another side' that is never mentioned, and that Is that pedestrians should watch out a little for themselves. ' I am an exceedingly careful driver. as I think every one should be; yet have been compelled to stop my car on tho busiest street in Omaha to wait for some adult to saunter slowly by, but without a glance for her own safety. I am not excusing the reckless drivers, many things are unpardon able, but I do feel the public should be educated through . your news paper to help protect themselves and thus prevent these terrible ac cidents.
