"Hope Cometh With the Morning."
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.

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 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.

DISEASE OF MANY PHASES.
"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

A SUGGESTION-
c
The most "iifficult part of saving is the "start."
After the initial step saving becomes habit. Thou
sands have said, "How foolish I was in not beginning
earlier."
You should begin saving aystematically-
something each pay day the surprise will be yours
when you realize the amount saved with so little ef
fort. We do not suggest that you "Save to Spend," but
