Saving the Taxpayer's Cash.
Our democratic brethren arc determined not
to be pleased by the acts of the republican leg
islature any more than they can find consolation
in what the congress i doing. But the taxpayers
of the state will not find much fault with a ."spe
cial session of the legislature that reduces the
tax bill by over $2,700,000. This is accomplished
by the wise and careful revision of the ap
propriations made last winter, recognizing the
change in conditions and giving advantage to(
: the people of whatever saving possibly can be
( accomplished.
An uproar was occasioned by an attempt on
; part of the democrats to seriously cripple the
law enforcing department of the state govcrn-
, ment. This came about under a specious pretense
at reducing an appropriation for the state sher
iff's office; the motive was so exposed, however,
that the proposal was overwhelmingly defeated.
' The temper of the people of the state may be
. noted In the sentiment so expressed. Nebraska
has suffered, and still suffers, from the presence
of the predatory law breaker, and the republican
' legislators are "not in a mood to make his opera
tions any easier or less unpleasant than possible.
' Whatever the sentiment on wet or dry may be,
; the great mass of the people of the state are law
, abiding, and believe in supporting the dignity
and maintaining the sanctity of their govern
ment. ' . Other empty proposals were made by the
opposition, looking to whatever embarrassment
' thry might produce for the majority in the legis
lature, or to manufacture caoital for the coming
election, but Jhe efforts were productive only of
talk. It is worth while to note, too, that Sena
tor Hitchcock's paper still looks at the hole and
fails to note the doughnut. It laments the fact
that Osterman's attempt to cut down the ap
propriation for the state sheriffs office, and
thereby open, a smoother road for bootleggers
arid automobile thieves, failed, and through- its
tears over this is able but dimly to discern that
the house increased both the recommendation.
oi the governor and that of the committee, and
cut $2,793,755 from appropriations already made.
We do not doubt that the people will dis
cover that this practical economy has been made,
iiud that it will puzjJe , the democratic spell
binders to distort the fact into blame for the'
republican administration. . However, this will
not keep them from trying, but the record will
speak for itself, and the diminished tax bill will
' carry' something of conviction that even a glib
tongue can not effectually disturb.
Germany Balancing Its Budget.
Chancellor Wirth, presenting to the Reich
s'.ag the government's plan for a balanced bud
get for 1922, includes the enforced loan of 1,000,
"000,000 gold marks, equivalent to $250,000,000,
which will be used in paying one installment on
the reparation claims. This takes the form of
an extraordinary tax on capital, and is under
stood to be in lieu of the extreme proposition
that a moiety at least of war profits be seized
for state uses. A special levy on post-war
profits also has been abandoned, but new im
posts are laid, particularly certain taxes on ex
ports ot cpal and imports of sugar. The one
will hit Stinncs end the other will be felt by
the entire country. The chancellor, presenting
. the plan to the deputies, expressed a belief that
the receipts of "the government for the current
year would be almost double those of 1921, and
that it was the intention of Germany to make"
rverv effort to meet the reparation de
mands. He did refer, however, to the fact that
the economic situation had not been fully exam
. ined by the Allies, and that this should be done
before definite and vital conclusions had been
reached by the reparation commissioners. Out
wardly, the German government seems to be at
least frank, and it is fair to assume that it will
. be so met by the other nations. The effort to
balance the budget and so end the reckless in
flation of currency, which has so disturbed the
whole fabric of European exchange, is encourag
ing, and its workings will be carefully watched
by the world.
.... Based on the Land.
A member of The Bee staff, in quest of in
formation as to the prospects in Nebraska, en
countered at the very outset the answer to the
" entire question. A farmer on being asked what
he thought of the outlook replied that recovery
is certain, because the prosperity of Nebraska is
based on. the land. As long as the soil will
respond to the cultivation and seeding, just that
long will the return be assured. Periods of de
pression ire but temporary, while the need of
tood is aa everlasting state of humanity. How
ever slow or rapid the progress of readjustment,
.people must eat, and from the land comes the
upply. Just now the farmers of the state are
merging from a rious trialthat Is, the real
dirt farmers arc coming out of the trouble that
overwhelmed them, for they havt worked, hard
to overcome obstacles, juil is they Uayt have,
and ir letting their heads above water one
more, Tht political farmers will probably con
tinue to sing "the bluet" until after the primary
in July, ant maybe until the vote are counted
In November, but the state will go ahead juit
the same, because its prosperity is based on the
land and as long as the occupant of that land
are industrious, thrifty and frudtnt, Just that
long tb safety and happiness of our homes is
assured.
Farmeri Outline a Policy.
In the absence of full information, it it not
fy to understand why the farm conference at
Washington declined to give endorsement or
.approval to the lakei-te-oeean waterway. The
Bee has consistently presented this subject as
one of vital interest to the farmer, just as it has
steadily advocated the improvement of all In
land waterways as a method for solving the
transportation problems of the United States,
We are not willing to believe that the farmers
were susceptible to influences that have alined
against the project, but will conclude that some
potent argument swayed the delegates in their
decision.
One highly important decision taken was
tfiat in favor of ending the devastation of the
lorest lands of the United States. This is proof
that the farmers are, waking up to the value of
the forest resources of the nation, and the neces
sity for preservation of restoration of forest
growth, Nebraska is coming slowly to ap
preciate that this' is one of the stale's problems,
and that involves quite a good deal beyond the
mere annual observance of Arbor day. In time
the wood lot will be established on Nebraska
farms quite as firmly as the cow pasture or the
feed lot for the pigs, and this will lead into the
broader ana more serviceable work of foresta
tion of the waste areas of the state.
Declining to be recorded as in favor of re
petling the eight-hour law, the delegates also
expressed themselves in favor of repealing the so
called 6 per cent guaranty clause of the Esch
Cummins law. This is really not a pledge to
the railroads that they will be given a return
of 6 per cent, but has been so generally mis
interpreted as to arouse opposition in many quar
ters, while it has not been of service to the rail
roads. ' As removing a cause of irritation it may
well be dispensed with. The stand of the dele
gates indicates that definite aims are held clearly
jn view.
. Walter I. Smith.
While the denth of Walter I. Smith did not
come as a surprise to his friends, nor to a con
siderable portion of the public, for it had been
understood that his illness was of a nature that
precluded any reasonable lione of his being
restored to health, yet it did produce a distinct
shock, because it denoted the termination of a
life that was busy and useful.
A native of Council Bluffs. Walter Ingle
wood Smith rose to eminence through industry
and integrity. His talent was developed through
study and close application, to the end that when
he entered congress after a term of service on
the district bench, he was well equipped to take
up the important duties that devolved on him.
He established himself from the start as a man
of uncommon ability, and soon became a leader
in the house of representatives. . From there he
was taken by President Taft and made a federal
district judge, to which position he brought the
value of his erudition and ripe experience. It
was at work that he was overtaken by the illness
which so undermined his health that he had been
prevented from taking any active part in the af
fair's of the world for many months. He had
built, well, however, and his record is one any
man might well aspire to leave. ., '
Two Million Dollars a Day.
Experiences during the war accustomed the
public to complacently behold the expenditure of
such vast sums of money that $2,000,000 is in
significant in comparison. Yet, when it comes
to commercial transactions that amount is no
ticeable, and under some conditions, is even
respectable, One of the farmer group of law
makers now assembled at Lincoln, talking of
the situation in Nebraska, points out that the
agricultural industry of the state is not required
to wait for the harvesting of another crop in
order to secure sustenance. He finds that from
the Omaha market alone more than $2,000,000 a
day is being returned to the country for products
of the farm. Cattle, hogs, sheep, grain of all
kinds, potatoes, butter and eggs, cream and other
articles are coming steadily to the metropolis,
and cash is being returned to the producer in an
endless stream. The estimate , is justified, for
the published receipts at the stock yards and
grain terminals disclose that nearly that amount
in live stock and grain is coming in. To this
should be added the shipments that go to Kan
sas City, St. Joseph and other markets, which
will materially swell the total, showing that a
considerable sum of money is daily being real
ized by the producers of the state not so much
as they might have expected, some of it repre
senting actual loss, yet a flow of currency that is
more than sufficient to keep business moving,
and on which will eventually rest the recovery all
are looking forward to. Something might be
said as to the importance of the relation between
Omaha and the state in this regard, but the facts
are eloquent themselves. Two million dollars a
day from the market town to the producers does
not require elaboration.

When the day seems dark and gloomy and I

When I feel about as happy as a jigger with

hair all falling out, when old John J. Trouble
seems to have me on the hip and my eyes are
seeing- double like a chicken with the pip. it is
not that my environ makes my life all dark and

The Junior Sins.
A Pasadena justice says he is going to punish
parents who permit their children to smoke
cigarets. Exactly how he is going to accomplish
this is not fully indicated. Possibly he has a
little enactment and a supreme court of his own.
But the idea is not bad. It is time that parents
were beginning to be held responsible for some
of the frailties of their offspring. The sins of the
fathers may visit upon the children, but it would
not be amiss if the sins of the children were
checked up a little tighter against the old man.

A Silly Song
By A. CUCKOO BIRD.
Don't kill the bo, the hungry bo,
who begs at jour back door. The
ti.nc will come, next iimmrr. when
you will tired him sore. If you ex
terminate him now the day is apt to
come when jou will kneel and beg
the Lord to end along a bum. When
winter days are cold and drear, and
fields ire white witli snow, don't
be too doggone quick to sick old
Carlo on the bo. lint let him in be
side the fire to get his fingers warm,
and fill him up with bread and meat
so he can fare that storm. And like
bread upon the water, when you toil
in summer's heat, he'll come trudg
ing down the highway to hH you
shock the wheat. But if you slant the
kitchen door and turn the bo away:
when ripened grain is waving and
you work both night and day, you'll
have no kick a comin' if he passes by
your gate, and stops to help the
neighbor within whose shark he ate.
An Knrileaa Task.

reg-Iment?"

''I have never known anything as
marvelous in my life as the way in
a short time ianlac lias overcome:
my catarrh and stomach trouble of
years standing:. Nobody knows
the misery I suffered during all these
years. Many a time I was so weak
that I couldn't sit up ad all and
would have to lie in bed for davs. I
had awful headaches, too, nearly
every morning and was just as de
spondent and discouraged as any
one could be.
"I am just feeling fine now, almost
like a young girl, eating anything I
want without the least distress after
wards. The headaches arc gone,
too, and, in fact, I am just like a
different person, thanks to grand
