We are Hearing the end of a remarkable epoch in American history. ' Eight years ago William Howard Tgft was preparing to turn over the high office of chief magistrate of the United States to Woodrow Wilson, as a result ' of one of the most peculiar political episodes ever recorded.' A division in the republican party made possible the choice of the democratic candidate, and a possible reversal of the policies under which the land had prospered. High hopes were entertained by the partisans of the incoming president, because of the promises he had made f and the professions he had offered. It may have been Mr. Wilson's misfortune, it may be chargeable to any one of a number of cause growing from his administration, but the advent of the democratic party at -Washington was signalized by a renewal of business dis turbances and depression such as characterized the last of Grover Cleveland's term in office. Wilson's first two years in the White House did not bring about any of the things he had out lined in his "New Democracy;" his second win ter as president saw unemployment spread wider than ever before, while economic and political troubles were multiplying. The presence of war in Europe came to relieve the industrial situation somewhat, but the political sky grew darker daily. Domestic and foreign relations alike were disturbed, and the powers at Washington seemed incapable of understanding the problems, let alone dealing with them. With 1915 came the certainty that America could not avoid being drawn into the world war; and from the William P. Frye incident, through the Lusitania and the Xcbraskan, the shadows gathered more closely aboutthe country, while Washington continued its "watchful waiting," with an exchange of brave notes, a secretary of state telling the Austrian minister to not worry, as the message to Berlin did not mean what it said; the resignation of the secretary of state, and then that of the secretary of war, the one because he could not approve the language of the president and the other because the president receded from his plan to prepare for war. A few weeks later came the campaign, with the "war cry" raised by Martin J. Glynn at St. Louis. In terspersed were the huge list of ultimatums snt to Mexico City, the intriguing to overthrow Huerta, the vain invasion of that country at Vera Cruz, and finally the equally vain pursuit of Villa and the sorrowful parade of the .Na tional Guard along the Rio Grande. By the singular turn of the vote in California, an echo of the split in 1912, the election of 1916 sent Woodrow Wilson back to succeed himself. Two years of war followed, a splendid exhibi tion of patriotic endeavor and sacrifice On iart of the people, offset against a disastrous showing of incompetence, blundering, extravagance and waste on part of those who had the direction of our part in the war. Two years more of confusion, of an autocratic attempt on part of the president to enforce his will . on the people over all ob jection or opposition; saddened by the physical breakdown of the man who had been entrusted with the greatest power ever given to mortal to wield. And now it is at an end. The president, who entered office with so many promises of good to his country will retire followed by the good wishes of the millions who had looked to him to lead the way into a more prosperous era than had been known. These 'hopes were disappointed; the benefits expected from the election of Wood row Wilson did not flow in any of the eight years he filled the office. Mr. Harding comes with the promise of repairing the, damage wrought by a return to the safe and sane meth ods recommended by man's experience. His ad vent will bring relief.-his opportunity is big, and his will is strong. The rest must wait. or after its appearance. Omahans have an tin usual opportunity here, and should avail them selves of the chance. A Rare Opportunity for Omahans, The meeting here of the Nebraska section of the American College of Surgeons is of vastly more importance to the public than generally is -recognized. While these men of science are primarily engaged in an exchange of views, ex periences and conjectures as to what is possible, it is all in the direction of ameliorating human suffering, obvrtting misery, and prolonging use ful life. They are engaged in the noblest war that ever enlisted human attention, that of the everlasting combat with disease. Searching in quiry into causes brings forth certain knowledge as to remedies, and this knowledge these men are putting at the disposal of the world. For the moment they are giving particular attention to. 'cancer, the terrible scourge that annually sweeps 80,000 victims into the grave, sufferers who might have been spared had they but possessed the knowledge the surgeons are now eager to impart to them. Cancer is disease that can be pre vented, and so is unnecessary; it is a disease that can be cured if taken in time, and so death from cancer means in the end death from pre ventable cause., On Thursday night a mass meeting is to be held at the City Auditorium where the information concerning this terror of life will be spread for the benefit of all. Just as the land was awakened a few years ago to the possibilities of successful resistance to tuberculosis, so now are the people being in formed a Jq how to avoid cancer, cither before After the Lever Law, What? For reasons made plain by a succession of decisions in the lower courts, the supreme court of the United States has held the Lever law un constitutional. In writing its epitaph, we feel justified in saying we believe the defunct statute really accomplished more of good than of harm, for it acquainted the public with a latent power of the federal government, one seldom invoked, but potent for good if required. The funda mental weakness of the Lever law was in that it undertook to punish an offense it did not clearly define, and to prescribe penalties on a schedule so vague and variable as to actually defeat its own end. A basic law, that of supply and demand, con trols Nn business. By its operations prices are regulated. Emergencies arise when through the artificial control of accident , or fortuitous cir cumstance the law may be distorted and thrust aside, and inequalities set up, to the gain of some and the loss of many. A moral law may be ap plied here, but seldom is. The thing finally to be determined .is how far may a holder be pe--mitted to go iiV fixing the price on what he has to sell? When public good is involved, as it was when prices on necessaries were soaring, to what extent and by what means may the gov ernment intervene to regulate the transactions? In establishing a rate what consideration must control? We undertake, at all times to protect the private citizen in the enjoyment of his in dividual rights, and one of these is to put a value on his own possessions; subject always to the higher right that dwells in the whole to take what is needed for a common use, making just compensation therefor. It is a matter of common notoriety that undue profits were exacted during the war period; some of these extortions rested on the general neces sity of the world, others had only for their foundation a psychological condition, and some were encouraged and fostered by the federal government itself, under the mistaken notion that by conceding special gains production was stimulated. Whatever the cause, the Lever law sought to control a danger by providing means whereby to curb rapacity and greed. No part of it's failure will be ascribed to its purpose; whatever of success was attained under its ad ministration may be credited to the general recognition of the soundness of, its objective. Justice must be done; the necessity for sup plementing economic and moral law with statu tory enactment may still persist, yet the problem remains as to how to do justice and yet limit the right of the seller to affix a , price to his wares. The supreme court's opinion does not point a way to achieve this; it makes clear that the path taken is not the right one. Experience may yet show the road. A Line 0' Type or Two Haw to the Line, Itt the aulas tall where they may The Appeal of Good Health. . Love of life is a splendid quality and quite different fjom the fear of death. It is to this love rather than to the fear that the medical pro fession is appealing at the public mass meeting which will be held in the Auditorium at 8 o'clock Thursday night. Noted surgeons who are ex pert in the disease of cancer will there take the public into their confidence on how to prevent and to cheek the onslaught of this disease. The American College of Surgeons does not believe in locking the barnvafter the horse is stolen, but is devoting its attention in a series of lectures and clinics in every state of the union to preventive medicine. That the people ap preciate this service has been demonstrated in cities to the east where audiences of 2,000 have attended. One out of every eight women who pass mid dle age is said to die from cancer, and one out of twelve men. If by taking precautions in the preliminary stages this mortality rate can be cut down, it is to the interest of every citizen wno finds life worth living to inform himself of tne proper method. People do not think so much about sickness as they used to, but the avidity with which the newspaper columns edited by physicians such as Dr. Evans are read does indi cate a tremendous interest in health. Poisoned History. A good service to the friendly relations be tween the people of Canada and of the United States has been rendered by a newspaper, the J'oronto Globe.- Through its efforts a school reader which asserted that the American people made a profit of $12,500,000,000 out of the war, forgetting altogether that our war debt is twice that amount and twelve times as much as Canada spent in the conflict, has been withdrawn. For the next generation the Canadians to be educated to regard their neighbors as having remained out of the war in order to make money might exert ? powerful influence in future international rela tions. This publication, which was entitled, "Flaj and Fleet," was issued by the Canadian Navy league, with a foreword by Admiral Beatty, who probably was unaware of the slurs it repeated. The immediate object, no doubt, was to gain support for an increased naval appropriation. It is interesting in this regard to find the leader of the farmers' party in the Canadian Parlia ment urging that no expenditure for buildinjj warships be granted for five years. The prompt action of Canadian public opinion, as voiced by the Globe, in securing the abandon ment of this text, provides a worthy example for American press and public in dealing with our ow;n jingoes who assail this nation and that according to their lights or for their own ends. The sugar beet farmers who threaten to plant other crops,unless the contract price for beets is raised by the refineries have a weapon that will make other food growers wish for a system by which they could contract for their crop befote planting it. : ' If J.David Larson's view is correct, and! 7 per cent of the people decide what the other 93 per cent think and do, some one is laying down on the job and we are not yet living up to .the opportunities of democracy. Reading about the accomplishments of the wives of the new cabinet members leads to the impression that none of the gentlemen are not what could be called self-made men. Church membership, according to a pastor, is like life insurance; this is an improvement ovr "the old claim that it resembled fire insurance. Gas attacks are now things of the past, and the armistice signed by the city plant is in keep ing with the times. - MOKNIXG PRA'VUH FOR POETS. O dearest God, I want to say A morning prayer to you to-duy; Vou who have made the lightning fleet And cooing babies soft and sweet; , You who have made the deodars, .

IN Mr. Chesterton's opinion "The Moon stone is the best of all mystery stories, although "Trent's Last Case" seems to him about as good. Such was our opinion of the latter yarn, but a number of friends who acquired it on our recom mendation professed themselves indifferently re paid. QUELLE! AFFLICTION!

YOU knew that much of Wordsworth's best stuff was his sister Dorothy's prose put into verse, but do vou know the Dassaee in her Journals from which "Daffodils" was taken? lerewith: "We saw a few daffodils close to the water side. But as we went along there were more and yet more; and at last, under the boughs of the trees, we saw that there .was a long belt of them along the shore. They grew among the mossy stones, about and about them; some rested their heads union these stones, as on a pillow, for weariness; and the rest tossed and reeled and danced, and seemed as if they verily laughed with the wind that blew upon them over the lake, they looked so gay, ever glancing, ever changing."

BERTHA TEN EYCIC JAMES. WRITES M. G. M. from Denver: "Madame Pompadour, late of Chicago, opened a beauty shop here, and one of our up-to-date young ladies asked her if she was doing the hair in the crime wave so popular in Chicago. Can you beat that for innocence abroad or at home:-' THE THOUSAND AND 0E AFTERNOONS. XVIII. It was the housebreaker's thought, as he slid down through the vines, to withdraw from the vicinage with a fleetness that more than once had commanded the admiration of the police, but his companion, less adroit in negotiating porches, completed her descent so abruptly that she upset his plan and himself; moreover when they rose she had him tightly by the arm. His impulse was to tear free and make a run of it, but he observed a form rounding the near cor ner, and in the darting rays of a flasher betokened the private watchman. For the second time the lady resolved his perplexity. She led him quite naturally to the electric, which was standing at the curb, unlocked the door unhastily, and stepped within. Mr. Wild followed with a word of appreciation, for here was a simpler method of escape, and one Involving less labor than sprinting. "Where are we going?' he asked as the car rolled off. 'Over the hills and far away,' said the lady happily. 'Not in an electric; we should run out of current,' respodned Mr. Wild. 'Oh Peter Pan, how practical you are!' she Cried. 'Where would you like to go, then?' 'Toward town,' he said, so she turned the next corner an '. drove southward in Dearborn street. Once on the course she dropped her head on his shuul der and murmured, 'Oh Peter, how happy lam!' He put a meditative arm around her, as the story writers would say, but his other hand rested on the latch of the door. Obviously his companion was as mad as Ophelia, but her va riety of lunacy was new to Mr. Wild; it did not relate itself to the fantasies evoked by cocaine, opium, and other drugs with which persons in his social set solaced themselves. He should be sorry to part company with her, but the neces sity was present, and he cast a backward eye on the avenue. The lady's flight was by this time discovered, and the darkened room, the open window, the vanished electric must have raised a hue and cry. When they reached the river he decided that that was as far as he could in safety go, and he girded his lithe limbs for de parture. The west driveway of the bridge was blocked; red lights on a barricade indicated that it was closed for repairs. The enamored Ernestine turned Into the east driveway and drove cautiously upon the bridge, and when the car was about midway of the structure Mr. Wild opened the door and sprang out. It was a leap in the dark, and lit could not liave selected a worse si. t, for the flooring of the driveway 'had been removed, and Qeorge Barrington Wild, gen tleman housebreaker, shot like a falling star to the ice-strewn flood below. WE learn from the Monticcllo, Ind., Journal that a couple narrowly escaped being asphyxicated by gas from an anthracite coal stove. Young Grimes must be reporting for that gazette. A Versatile Chap.

"What Is encephalitis menin gitis?" Mrs. V.- It. W. ' writes. "What are the symptoms? What are the chances ot recovery of a boy 13 years old who has had It for 10 months following an attack of Influenza? He Is in what the. doctors call lU third stage a sort of creeping paralysis affecting his right side. He walks with difllculty and at times he can scarcely feed hiny elf. His voice is shaky. He Is sloeplng very much better than he has been and his appetite and diges tion are good. He weighs 96 pounds, a gain of 10 pounds singe last sum mer." Answering your question, I pre sume you have in mind so-called lethargic encephalitis or sleeping sickness. According to Drs. Dunn and Heagy, who described the disease as it appear? hi America in the American Journal fit Medical Sciences, about two -thirds of the1 causes get well. The longer it lasts the better the chance of recovery On tho basis of this opinion your boy has an excellent chance of recover. Many writers refer to after effects from which patients do not recover fully for a long time. However, very few cases have so many after effects as does this boy 10 months after the onset of the disease. It is not easy to answer the ques-i tlon as to tho symptoms, since they are not uniform. A patient general ly begins by having1 some disturbance of vision. Double vision is the trouble most frequently encountered. Soon lethargy develops. The patient seems to be in a natural deep sleep, from which ho can be awakened and kept awake for a short time. At this stage it will be a fair guess that there is some trouble with the brain or cord or the membranes Hurroundlng them and the physician will draw off some of the spinal fluid .for nviscroplc and chemic examination. Neither ex amination will show any evidence of trouble. Drt. Dunn and Heagy say that the diagnosis rests on trouble with vision, lethargy, and a negative spinal fHild. Sweating is a prominent symptom. Another striking peculiarity is. the lack of fever, considprlng the sever ity of the illness. If there is any fever it is low and it docs not last long. In an analysis of the symptoms In 115 cases, double vision was ttis first symptom in 10, and was present in 55. Disturbance In one or anoth er nerve controlling eye muscles was present in 102 cases. In 15 cases there was paralysis of the great motor nerve of the face. There was lethargy in 7! cases. It was the first symptom noticed in 54. Insomnia preceded the letharny in four enses. Headaches was the first symptom in 12 cases. Trembling was present in 35 cases and catalepsy in 20. Thus we see that no ime symptom was present in all the cases. Nor was any combination of symptoms present in every case. Is it any wonder that physicians disagree in their diagnoses sometimes? Tanon, reviewing the history of the disease in France, says in 1910 the. type changed from one in which lethargy dominated to one in which spasmodic contractions of muscles, trembling, and nervous irritability over shadowed tho other symptoms. Tree Butchers at VorVj! Again. Omaha, Neb., Fb 27. To the Editor of Tho Bee: I see" that the treo butchers have been extremely Industrious this winter and tlto way hundreds If not thousands of trees look is really a ditonaeo to the city Anybody who knows anything about trees, knows that when the tops and lurue limbs of great trees are cut from trees that the vitality is seriously atlected, and should wo have u dry year this year, a vast number of what were trees but are stumps of trees now, will die. The way many trees are mutilated, shows what Ignorant butchers are doing the work on them. They do not trim' the limbs off smoothly, but saw the limb on one side, and let them fall the other way and tear down the sides of what were limbs and down tho sides of the trees. Trees trimmed in such a way are bound to die before many years. If those who have had their trees butchered up so badly will take the time to go over the city and look at trees that had the tops and large limbs cut from them a number of years before this, they will see many or tnem either dead or partly dead where they have not been removed as was the case ct the poplar trees that Used to Wand across the street east of the tiouth Side High school. I saw a man trimming poplar trees yesterday and I felt like telling him that he ought to know that pop lar trees are very sensitive to trim ming and that his trimming would simply result in tho death ot the tree! In a few years. But I thought that possibly he would tell me it was none of my business, and so I did not say .anything. One of the worst jobs of butchering trees I have seen Hopes to Stop Snoring. .. L. M. H. writes: '"Sou are )such a cheerful cuss, 1 come to you for com fort. I snore horribly. I don't mind it, but my wife does. The only way I can prevent this snoring nuisance is to place a strip of inch wide adhesive tape over my mouth (with the ends of the tape folded back a quarter of an inch for ease in re moving.) Now tell me, Is there any hope that because of this practice I will some day form the habit of sleeping with my mouth closed? About how far off is that some day? Also, will the skin around my mouth be injured by the plaster? Will you kindly invite sug gestions from your readers as to other methods of preventing snor ing?" TIEPI.V. ITsIng the plaster may cure you. but the probability is that you will become weary. I know of no better remedy. It Is the province of good women to be Ions suffering. Uolllng Solutions 'Best. O. H. writes: "I am operating a hotel, and have several toilets to keep clean. I have used a lot of compounds, but I have never found anything really satisfactory. I would like something that will destroy the vegetable matter in toilets." REPLY. The basis of nil compounds used for this purpose is caustic soda. Some are combined with a deodorant such as crude carbolic preparation. A boiling solution of caustic soda is rapidly destructive to animal and EARL H. BURKET h.k.

Well posted men on the subject will tell you that it uffects the vital ity of trees to cut them back the way they have been by the tree butchers (his winter, and ns 1 said before, if we have a dry year vast numbers of what wore trees will die this year and many will aujliow. There should bo some regulation by the city of the trimming of trees that stand along the streets 'and every Ignorant follow who has money enough to buy a ladder, a saw and some rope should not be al lowed to go over the city ureing people to have their trees cut back so badly that they are worthless for shade or any other purpose. A city commissioner last year wrote me that the city was going to regulate the trimming of trees, 'but It does not look as if they were doing it. It is a shame that so many fine trees have been so badly mutilated this winter and 1 for one would like to see it stopped. KRANK A. AG. NEW.
