Fr St Hu U liaaara St. Patrick and His Island. Allowing for the conflicting cUima made by ihurchnifii at to the nationality and denomina tional persuasion of Patrick, no doubt can xit at to the Ui of hit adoption and labor. Ireland gtoriri in the memory of I'atrick, and today all ovrr the world bit of green ilt brighten in a million wy i the ontbree si of the early spring, totem of the affection of all hearts through hich any drop of Celtic blood courses for Ire land and ill taint. For the Irih. thi ought to be regarded at the brightest-17th of March in seven centuriet or longer, for it denotes the ending of the long struggle for political freedom and the beginning of a new era for the island. The Irish Free State will very shortly assume its responsible place in the councils not of the empire alone, but of the world, moving under a constitution framed and adopted by the people themselves. Here is a notable distinction. The constitution of Ireland is not written and conceived by a monarch or his cabinet, and handed down as an act of grace from above; it is designed and presented by rep resentatives of the people, chosen by the people, and will be adopted, if at all, by the free vote of the people. And no act more becomes a free people than the adoption of a constitution, whereby the powers of the government and the liberties and rights of the people are outlined, delimited. as well as expressed. Irishmen will accordingly observe the day with a zest and a deep-seated feeling of joy and pride such as they have not experienced in all their lives. Turbulence in the island is disap pearing, the bitterness and rancor of factional disagreement will pass, and in the management of their own affairs, the securing of their own prosperity and the advancement of their own happiness under their own control, the Irish will find ample scope for the employment of that genius that has so often called forth the flippant jest, that they governed every land but their own. In the future they will govern Ireland.i , Taxpayers Taking Notice. Now that the clamor of the calamity shriekers is commencing to subside, the still, small voice of common sense is getting a chance tcr say some thing on the tax question. Our friend, Editor Carroll, tells bis readers in Colfax county comey facts about their own situation that in a consider able degree will apply to every county in the state. It certainly will apply to Douglas county. However, little is to be gained by scolding the people for their own negligence, beyond the probability that reminding them of the conse quences may cause them to look closer at all propositions entailing expenditure for the future. Having danced, it is now to pay the, fiddler. There are a few, not manydemocratic states in the union, and there taxes are levied and col . lected, just as they are in republican states. Cost of government goes on, just the same, with no regard for party lines. It is not amiss, however, to remind the public once more that the so-called "code" system is not a devilish contraption,, de vised by Governor McKelvie for the undoing of the people of the state. It was carried out in redemption of a promise made in the republican platform of 1918, embodying a principle that was endorsed by Keith Neville, last democratic gov ernor, and by him recommended to the legis lators. Chairman Neville probably recalls this fact, but does not have much to say in regard to it. The code system did not create any new offices, nor add a single name to the pay roll of the state. - It consolidated and co-ordinated ex isting bureaus and commissions, eliminated ju plications and overlaps, and cleared the way for efficiency in the state administration. The bud get system extends the usefulness of the code system, and the two together will produce results of benefit to all. . . - ' - - - - - - - - - 9 r r inninrv. nnit til truth !c rnminer nut. in anita nf the smoke barrage laid down by the democrats who had hoped thatetheir hypocrisy and deceit would not be disclosed until after the primary is over, if then. - Business Is Getting Better. . "The proof of the pudding is in chewing the string." Applying the final test to local business conditions, the verdict is that trade in all lines is better now than it was a year ago. Bank statements, published during the week showed a heavy increase in deposits and a decrease in loans, evidence of a decided change in a year. While the money is not so completely employed as it was in 1921, the diminution of debt is more a sign that recovery has enabled debtors to get out from under the load they were carrying than it is of actual contraction of business. So it is. a sign of health. Ample employment will be found for that money. In retail trade men who are at the helm say that sales are better, credit condi tions improved, and collections easier than a year ago. Consumers are coming into the mar ket once again, and purchases made are not only on a more liberal basis, but of a better quality generally speaking. No claim is made that a boom impends, or anything like that, but men of affairs are convinced that the depression that af flicted the world for so long a timers gone, and tfiaj activity, iq all lines is now the order of the day.

The city fommiatktneti ar properly visitant fit leteniing the fudli'r intrusion of the State Kail? eommis.icii in ftt!enient of matter Wtween th ti'y and the tramway company. Trrhapt there it reason for the adjustment pf ftrea by th f Ute board, but it tequiret consider. able itretthing li male that authority cover a grant to lh tramway to abandon one set of streets and to remove i trail to another. Surety, if pep' of Omaha have any rightt left in the matter, ene f them must Include con. trot of the streets, Something more than this it Itisolved. Sev eral ytari ago the Omaha & Council BlufTi Rad way and Frid company i challenged by the city to designate which one of several existing or rapiring franchise! it is operating under. Thii It necessary to tstablUh and maintain the rightt of the city. It wit at one time assumed by the tramway company that It pord a perpetual franchise, a claim that has long since been dis posed of. If the city consents to the state board issuing a permit for the removal of tracki, or the exienkn of line, or any other act materially fleeting the relation! between the compiny and the community, the effect may in time be greatly embarraiiing, if not actually damaging to the public interest. Omaha bat had enough experience in these matters to Justify its proceeding very cautiously. The Omaha & Council Bluffs Railway and Bridge company need have no apprehension in approach ing the public on a matter relating to any fea ture of its service, where all the elementi of fair daling are present, and it should be equally as sured that Omaha does not propose to turrender or tleep on any of its rights. "Spoofing" the Cktllible Public. And now it turns jut that the Antigonish "ghost" was a very material miss of some twenty Nova Scotian lummers, whose sense of humor was more vigorous than subtle. She was bent on having a little fun, and did not take into con sideration how earnestly the world is seeking for "manifestations." Terhaps she Would have de sisted from her sport if she bad been told that she would bring down a coterie of scientific in vestigators, whose trained faculties would be set to work on the trail of her ghost. However, the incident is explained, and maybe we will hear no more about the doings at Antigonish. The les son will not linger long, however. Man is so eager to get a dependable message from the other side that he will believe a lot of things when told they are from "spirits," than if the assertion is made by an ordinary mortal. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is on the eve of departing for America with his little bag of tricks, to join the bevy of British lecturers who have swarmed over the land these last two years. He will tell in his own way of his inquiries, and why he has de clared so positively in favor of his communica tion with the spirits of the departed. He may or may not convince Americans of the truth of his views and adventures, but he will get that wherewith he may satisfy even, the British tax collector. Our people still like to be "spoofed." On Being an Evangelist. Sincere professors of religiou will not ' be greatly uplifted by the spectacle of a self-con-lessed bigamist posing as an evangelist. This, and the picture of James . Jeffries, one-time champion heavyweight pugilist, setting up as a sensational soul-saver does not inspire enormous respect for the cause. Not that it is improbable that either or both may not in such a way ef fectively workf for the good of humanity. ' It would be a cold and cruel faith that would deny to either a chance for reformation and an op portunity to dispense an experienced salvation for the saving of others. Yet some orderly minds, whose devotion is inherent, hold religion in such high regard that they must revolt at the thought involved in the transfer of a criminal from his prison cell to the pulpit without any special preparation, other than what he may have received in his cell In the past the church has had to support a great deal in this way, and no little scandal has ensued from time to time be cause of the pretensions of such uncertain per sonages as prize fighters, bigamists and the like, who have felt the exaltation of conversion and yet have sadly lacked the, stamina to persist in the ways of righteousness. The business of being an evangelist is not to be lightly entered upon, although one who has been married a dozen or so times in quick succession to as many different women may fairly be said to have passed beyond the deterring control of ordinary considerations. "The way to resume is to resume," said John Sherman, almost fifty years ago, and Mr. Mellon evidently recollects the statement. At any rate, the Treasury is paying out gold again. : Egypt is back to where she was before Cleopatra and her brother fell out. When na tional independence is lost it generally takes a long time to recover. The wool rate from the west to Boston will stand unchanged. Another good argument for establishing a wool market in Omaha, Smuts has wound up the South African "revo lution" with a promptness that may deter any future demonstrations of the kind. Governor McKelvie declines to pick Ne braska's greatest war hero. His wisdom is de veloping as days go on. One more week of debate on the Pacific, treaty ought to allow some senator to close up his remarks. Matienauer is again proving that a diva may not always be a good chooser of husbands.

Not that Mr. Hughes' direct testimony at to the authorship of the Pacific treaty need utterly discourse any senator sincerely dedicated to the task of finding in the treaty tomething dreadful that isn't there. It is Hill open to the watchdogs of our libertiet to aert that while Mr. Hughes wat the hand that drafted the treaty, the mov ing spiriti were British and Japanese. A few deft passet of the tlim Balfourian fingeri over Mr. Hughei brow, a compelling glance or two from the hypotic Tokugawa eyei. and our secre tary of state passed into a trance where it wai easy" for these sinister forces from the Atlantic and Tacific beyond to work their will upon our deleuatei. Mr. Hughes has alwayi been to lut ceptible to tuggestions from the outside. Mr. Root it to notoriously a babe in worldly affairs, that it was the merest child play to make them do what the British and Japanete wanted them to do. The fact that Hughes wrote the Pacific treaty only proves the hyper-subtlcty and tuper guile of the alien. , In all the pother about just who did what at the Washington conference, m all this minute crutiniring and analyzing and emendating t hat has been going on ever since Senator Lodge n,"de his mistakes in Pacific Biography and President Harding gave his own understandmg of what a Pacific island really is, has it ever oc curred to the critics that not devilish diplomatic guile is at work, but 'mP'S,,um Sener know that the great tragedy of Lord Kitchener wa, in nil being tongue-tied. Misunderstand ings about the conduct of the war arose in the British cabinet for the simple reason that . KUch' ener did not know how to say what he knew or meant So it is conceivable that Mr. Hughes. X was fairly busy during the Washington con ference and later, never thought of what a he P "would be if the American people were told fus'ho wrote the Pacific treaty. As a mat e of fact Mr. Hguhes never thought that the state rnent was necessary. He believed that a plain document carries its own meaning on i s face. But shnce the grammarian in the senate insisted on fearing the worst, it is good that they snail have the famous secret of authorsh.p solved. Pope Pius and America How to Keep Well 1 Dll. W. A.

The pope has it in his power so to change the rules for the meeting of the con clave for the election of his successors that the election shall await the arrival of cardinals from the western hemisphere, and his assurance is definitive. This assurance which will be hailed with joy by American Catholics, can not do less than promote the importance of the church in the new world, and particularly m the United States. It -will mark a new step .in the development of the church here from the mis sionary status in which t remained for cen turies toward an equal position with that ot the countries of Europe. . -j- Along with this assurance goes the evidence on the new pope's part of a quite special and sympathetic interest in American usages and ideals. "I like that," he said, when Cardinal O'Connell told him of the way Catholics and Protestants cO-operate in our country s social and economic life, uniting in public work for the common, good: "It makes for peace and harmony everywhere." He bids his hierarchy "stand for all that is best in human life. A great program of well-doing is expressed in these words. Omens for "peace and harmony everywhere" cling abundantly around the new pontiff. Boston Transcript. The Python's Plan There is a big python at the National Zoological. Park which recently consumed an antelope, and is now in a six-month stupor, not being required to eat again for that length of time. What a blessing it would prove if the python's plan could be generally adopted! Think of all the work and worry which would be saved. "Bring on the antelope," the head of the house would order, and the good housewife would soon enter, bearing the antelope in one hand and a cellar of salt in the other. No more menus for half a year! No more going to the grocery store before breakfast to get that gill of forgotten cream; no more wait ing in vain for the butcher's boy that cometh not with the roast. The antelope solves it all. Gone would be the arduous duty of washing and drying the dishes, and cleaning the pots and pans. . Instead of sitting down to table three times a day for half a year the feast of the antelope would be celebrated once every six months. For the morning cantaloupe one would substitute the half-yearly antelope. The python's plan could be extended easily to take in man's mental problems, too. Take all the frets and worries and daily troubles ac cumulated over six months, season to taste, and swallow headfirst. Then forget your troubles for another half year. That is the python's plan. Washington Star. Need of System in Business. We are not advocates of more interference with business by legislation, but we see some measure of logic In a plan that would make com pulsory upon a merchant that he should know whether he is figuring a profit, as against the fool headed' theory that he does business without overhead because he pays no rent. Many mer chants resent system. The "rule of thumb" is used in their store just as much as the fitting stick. As a speaker in New York put it, "the great American desert is not in the far west, but under many a business man's hat." Boot and Shoe Reporter. Children at the Movies. A recent questionnaire in six Chicago high schools shows that 87 per cent of the 3,000 stu dents attend the movies from one to seven times a week. These students spent $920 a week at the movies, or $46,000 a year. Most of them were frank to admit that they preferred the thrillers with gun plays and hairbreadth escapes. The results of such a questionnaire might, no doubt, be duplicated in other cities. Movie going is a habit that has a large hold on both young and old. Probably the movies now con stitute at least 90 per cent of the nation's-.enter-tainment Minneapolis Journal a. MAIN STREET REVISITED.

Jlervey welcomed me o the Institution and acted na a auldo on our tour around th Institution. In on of th room, quit to my aurprlae, 1 found Carol Kennleott, th wlf of Dr. John Kennleott of bank Center. You may remember her as Ccol Milford of Mankato. When th judge lert the bench. h went to Kt. raui. wnen . arm wa is judge Milford died. Carol, after mine tnrough college, became a librarian and eventually married Dr. John Kennleott. I am ure you placed Carol when you read the biography ot her life In Gopher Prairie, wiittan by Sin clair Lewi, and given the title "Main Street." Last year I wrote a atory about Carol, calling her a nut, telling: why she did nurh things as Lewis wrote of her doing. My object wna to warn parent of peculiar children aw to what the future held for such children. Moat parents do not know thn meaning of such tralta of personal ity and behavior, and the great pos sibilities of remedial treatment by proper training, and of disaster when training la improper. I was surprised to tind Carol In the state hoapital, for although she had no training, and in fact no diag nosis of her personality had ever been made, she seemed to be coming Into quieter waters at the time Lew 1b' biography left her. She had passed through puberty and adolescence, breaking points in the Uvea of so many dementia pre cox subjects. She had weathered maternity and other dangerous per iods. She had passed through many emotional storms in the nodal bat tles of her email town life. I did not learn why she went to pieces at the last, but there she was, in the state asylum. Too much out of lino with the thought and life of her former sur roundings to perimr her to live there without constant, harmful friction, she had been placed In the state In stitution where she was physically well cared for and mentally re moved from violating conacts. Dr. Hervey said the diagnosis was dementia precox simplex. Carol, he said, was depressed, emotionally In. different, sitting stolidly most of the time. There were not many mani festations of split personality. At times she became excited and at such times had flights of fancy in which she believed, delusions, saw things, hallucinations and was rest less and difficult to control. At first they said Bhe had a nerv ous breakdown, and then nervous prostration. She got much worse and John Kennleott said It was best to put her where people would not Irritate her so much. It did not matter what village fight had precipitated the break down; If It had not been that particular- one it would have been an other. The seed of the thing started be fore she was born.

If one bonus is grant ed now there is nothing to prevent dreamer who invented fairies and fairy tales for his children. Carol lived a lonely life, iter sis ter was not a companion. As a child she was aloof, always mooning and day dreaming. As she grew older she lived In tha realm of the unreal. She shifted from one day dream to another, changed her pattern for a career re peatedly. At times effervesced, at times she was moody never fitted in- at school. Then Bhe met and married John Kennleott not even the stolid plae Id sanity of John sufficed to anchor her. Strange to say, John never diagnosed the real reason for her trouble. In the language of the street, John never understood her. No one ever .diagnosed ner or un derstood her or tried. intelligently to give her the social treatment needed to save her. Maybe John got her too late, even had he understood her. Finally, the social battles of Go pher Prairie landed her where she now is. When Hand Trembles. G. J.
