President Taft has been an enthue- iastic advocate of the budget system, a regular statement or account of Te- celpts and expenditures, for the pur- pose of conducting the ‘government's Dusiness with a proper understanding of its ability to get revenue and its restrietions to the aveflable funds. In- stead of dipping into the treasury for huge - expenditures, ragardless of ‘whether the revenue will be sufficient to meet i, or in fact with little or Teceipts should be set before all members of congress for their guidance. The president - in his specifal message to congress goes at length into a disoun sion of the necessity of the budget. It is a statement of the situation which must appeal to every thinking person, in view of the haphazard method now in vogue of getting and expending the country’s mone: No business house or municipality would be able to operate successfully under the methods by which the gov- ernment filnances are operated today. ‘The government is without a plan or a pregramme under which to operate, it 1s tmpossible to locate responsibility and when it is indfcated that a defl- cieney of more than $83,000,000 s faced in 1914 1t makes the argument strong- er than ever that the budget will be a great help in knowing how the gov- ernment stands at all times. If such a precaution 1s so mecessary for small- er business it must be of the greatest importance to the government. STEEL EQUIPMENT. In placing two new trains on their system to operate between New York and Boston, equipped with all steel cars, the New Haven road is meeting 2 demand which has arisen for great- er safety end comfort in traveling. Steel cars have demonstrated in case of & wreck that they provide the near- est to an indestructible train that it 13- posstble to get and the elimination of fire i3 also assured. Steel cars af- ford the greatest element of safety for ratiroad equipment and it is to be hoped that this is but the begin- ning of a general substitution of such Passenger coaches for the present wooden ones. Many instances within the past year have demonstrated the need of this change and the time is coming, when wooden cars will be & thing of the past, particularly in the equipment of the fast express trains. This is a condition which Is true with all the large railroads. Recogni- tion is taken of the requirements of the public and in working for ele- ®ance and comfort there is nothing more important them the provision in behalf of safety. Such changes are made at Jarge expense, but it is the devotion of money to a branch of the service which is boind to have the best effect. It is a step to whicH the public can and will give its greatest appreciation and particularly so when the pelicy is applied to all the trains, 2ll will be given the same assurance of safety which the train de luxe passengers receive. A FALSE ECONOMY. The decision of the United States supreme court that the white slave act is constitutional and that the gov- ernment has as much right to regulate such irede between states as any other is bound to give more force to the prosecutions under the provisions of the law. There have been many cases brought for the conviction of those engaged in such business, with the result that since the law was passed over 400 have been successfully prosecuted and sentences imposed to a total of 600 vears and fines to the amount of $70,000. Frightful condi- tions have been revealed and made it evident that the illegal traffic had been allowed to exist too’ long without the existence of a law to check it, The result has been an aroused in- terest in- its suppression throughout the entire countty but fn only a por- tion of it have the efforts been cem- tered, with many other large cities and states wherein the need of it has long been felt. It was felt that as the result of the need of the excellent worlk and the accompHshments under the law that the reguest for $200,000 for carrying on this crusade would readlly be granted by congress, and it is a false ecomomy which makes them. turn it down that the money may- be used for the erection of pub- “lic ‘buildings throughout the vountry. There 1 a crying need for the stoppfug of this trafic and tha government should play an important part in forc- ing it. Governor Colquitt of Texas might like to be: ent of the Mexican republic < say: ““The purpose of this measure simply to advance the interests wr Nebraska abroad. It cuntemfihr‘ Tae 2 ermanent system for zather(ng an Smilehiin focts ab00E u‘te;y state, its | resources . and thing but fa And N s sersly. or.g:met_hlng of this sort. It is be- hind most progressive states in the lack of any efficient statistical bureau. Short-sightedness and parsimony have thus far deprived us of that important agency. The welfare commission IS probosed as an adjunct to the state university, being educational in char- acter. Much of the work of the com- mission will dove-tail nicely into that of the agricultural school, thus enab- ling the state to broaden the scope of usefulness of this Institution. The measure is drawn as free as possible from seifish interest. the intent being to make it entirely public in its pur- pose and character.” Such an idea iz of importance to every state. Cities have found it to thelr advantage to send forth facts as to their attractions, facilities. edu- cational and business equipment and thers 1s no reason why it should not be applieq to states. Honest, whole- ome advertiaing {s good for evervihing whather it be business, cities or states and Nebraska will doubtless realize the benefit from it. It is slmfiy effort to grow through advertising. OPPOSING TAMMANY. Strict adherence to previous declar- ations would find the progressives in New York holding aloof by themselves and striving te better conditions in the impossible manner which char- acterized the last presidential cam- palgn and placed the demecrats in power. The appeal of reason; how- ever seems to have made an impres- sion upen Colonel Raoseveit and shows the fallacy ef permitting admittedly wrong conditions to exist K when it lles within their power to help in accomplishing an improvement. The rule of Tammany in the metronolis is cause for common opposition and fu- sion is the logical method of accom- plishing its downfall. That Co'onel Roostvelt has agreed to permit his forces to assist in the defeat of C. F. Murphy promises the strength which has previously been marshalled against Tammany and which was suc- cessful in the last election except for the mayor. Conditions there are such that com- bined action is needed and to sueh an extent that partisanship can well be discarded in the selection of the candidates. The need is for the best men, that the city may have their best efforts for a proper municipal administration. It is apparent that this can be obtained only by standing together and combining forces against a common enemy, a fact which on the face of it becomes a duty te the people as well as for their ewn wel- fare. The situation resolves itself into an anti-Tammany combination and fusion is necessary to give it the needed strength. EDITORIAL NOTES. It may be a noble ambition to aspire to be president, but not in Mexico, The new nickels are to be put on sale Saturday, but there will be mo bargain davs. The unsinkable lifeboat promises to add an interesting chapter to the many sequels of the Titanic disaster. ‘With nine million illiterates in Mex- ico it is not strange that they do mnot understand the benefits of civilization. More toll has been paid to the Ant- arctic conditions. It is fast becoming the graveyard of great and daring men. With the stock market suffering from external troubles, it has the con- olation of knowing that Mr, Morgan is well again. ‘Willimantic has Jaunched its muni- cipal ice business. It needs a hot sum- mer now to give the proposition a thorough test. ‘With ice going up and coal coming down it is a fortunate thing that the average household doesn’t require much ice just now. Happy thought for today: Next Tuesday Uncle Sam will show Mex- ico how to change presidents wnhout any trouble whatever. Every congressman should have It understood that the grab game is never on, instead of everyone making 2 grab while it is on. Presidént-elect Wilson's secretary is taking no chances In case he doesn’t like the job. He has hired a house in Washington for but two years. It is hardly consistent for England to be advising us about intervening in Mexico when she is unable ta put down the riots in London by the suf- fragettes. The need of widening and bettering y in need Thames street has been talked a long time. It meeds this and other kind of treatment to bring about the im- provement. Age isn't always rightly judged by years. A Pennsylvania man who was refused as a recruit in the Civil war Decause of advanced years, has just died, aged 108. The sum of $186,000 is desired by congress to keep the members cool during the summer, but nothing is planned to accomplish it during the rest of the year. The two members of the arbitration board in the iailroad firemen's case are having as hard a time to agree as the two sides did in getting to- gether on arbitration. Porfirio Diaz would probably have a happy time in the demonstration of the fact that he can come back, but he may consider that Mexico at its best is an unhealthy place. Turkey's dire straits are indieated by her willingness to part with her islands ana valuable possessions for mopey. Peace would have prevented the sacrifice.

Tt was a new experience to answer a knock at her own door, where she found a bell- boy with two letters. “For me?” she said surprised, but immediately aing the hand- writing on both missives.

Mr. Bditor: T do mot imagine that the average voter takes any interest in the complete reports you make of Business Men's association meetings. They are worth reading, and if & man would know his town such Teports should be carefully read. It pleased me to see that in the opinion of my old friend Tibbitts the knockers of the town are srowing less for he is in a position to knaw, and he knows a knocker when he sees him. There is more than one class of knockers in every town, and I have always noticed that those who make the least noise are the hardest hit- ters. The speaker who publicly declared to the assambled business of the town that Thames street was the dirtiest street in this stato of 168 towns, was in the true sense a necessary and a hard knocker, for it isn't a crime to tell the truth about public conditions, for eriminality rests with the negli- gent ang the negligence which makes such conditions, and these are the kind of knockers which tell worst against & place—shameful conditions not true words. T do not know whether this state- ment was an exaggeration, but the spirit which ,would have things right and respectable is mot the spiril to ory down, although some of our short- sighted, thin-thinking and timid cit- izens frequently proclatm that it is. The individual expressing opinions over a pen name doesn't do any harm to the town, for he only rolls up in- dividuals so they get after him, and in their zeal to identify him they even propose to interfere with a free expression of opinion, -or free speech. The knockers of this town wlo have done and are likely to do effective worl never write letters to the editors as pen-name fneaks or real-name vallants. They knew what they can do, and do it. ilr.
