The manager of an Omaha lumber yard has rushed into print to scold T BEE for refusing to encourage the scheme to establish a daily scow line be- tween Omaha and Pittsburg, and he in- cidentally instructs its editor how a pub- lic spirvited newspaper should be con- ducted. The notions which this man of wood has about the duties of the press, and the funetions of the editor, are de- | cidedly unique. “are privi- njure any enterprise or reputa- spending a dollar, whereas it e aworld of money 1 editor. cditor would follow the good old 1 and speak il of no enterprise that has ts idea the upbuilding of a city or state, to speak ill of no individual when something wood can be they certainly would be tillers of thesoil. * * * If Omaha news- papers will advocate something that will make Omaha the greatest commercial city of the west and bring to our very door all pro- jected lines of railway to the west without a bonus, advocate the river freight line, and call attention to it daily so that castern capi- talists may sce the necessity of investing their profitable enterprise and at the sume time assist Omaha to_become a second Chicago.

Any man who would encourage others to invest money in the proposed Missouri river scow line on the spresentations contained in the pr business pectus is either a reckless speculato, lacks ordinary business capaeity.

B e PROGRESS OF PRESBYTERIANISM. claved by & majority of four to one in favor of a faith. The long discussions which proe- ceded this decision -have terminated during the past three weeks in the re- | sort to the ballot, and four of the five presbyteries in the state have recorded r votes for a change in the church standards. In taking this action Ne- braska but falls into line with her sister of Kansas, Town and South Dakota, and in fact with the great ma- jority of all the Preshyterian churches of the country. Of the two hundred and twelve presbyteries composing the church very nearly or quite two-thirds have or will declare for revision. While this action is not final in the matter of revising the confession of faith, still it shows the drift of opinion in the churches and will largely govern the action of the gerieral assembly which meets at Saratoga, N. Y., next month. Although the great majovity of 1 fonists contend that no vital change is contemplated, still to the secular mind this overwhelming sentiment indicates that a forward movement has begun in the church based on broader ideas t those preva ago. Then the played biased the minds of the les who formulated the creeds which served as the foundation for the Protestant churches, While the bible was taken s the standard, the intense veligious feeling engendered during the per- fod of the reformation could not fail to, in some degree, at least, warp the judgment of those engnged in the work. John Calvin, who formulated the doe- trines which later furnished the founda- tion for the confession of faith preparcd the famous Westminster asscumbly, ived in the sixteenth century. By its action the Preshyterian church has de- clared in substance that while these doctrines are in the main sound and fhunded on biblical teachings, still they n statements which, with the dawn of the twentieth century, need ve- ision. The central doctrine of Calvin’ system of theology was uncondi- tional election . and reprobation. This doctrine is still held sound by revisionists and anti- revisionists alike, but some of its out- croppings are held by the former to be in contravention of bible teachings, Tl chief poipt of contention is the impl statement - in the confession that **( ereated a certain number of His child- ven for the purpose of assigning them to everlasting m mevely for His own ation.” Calvin is said to have sserted in his writings that God *pre- pitates unto eternal death infants torn from their mothers’ arms,” It was this one point which, more than any other, was responsible for the move- ment for revision. While the statement imputed to Calvin is not positively as serted in the confession, there is still room for it to be read between the lines. A very large majority of those opposed to revision do not believe in the doctrine of infant damnation and contend that the confession does not teach it. Their opposition to an, s based largely on the expressed fear that revision will be curvied Ltoo far and the very foundations of the Preshyterian system of theology destroyed. Thery are many side issues in the steuggle, but | this is the pivotal point around which the battle has been waged by the pres- byteries. Their decision has been in favor of placing in the buckground the doctrine of damnation and putting to the fore the love of God and the salva- tion of sinners. The vote of the presbyteries is simply a statement of opinion on the need of re- vision and the extent to which changes ave desived. This vote will bs canvassed by the general assembly of the church next month, and that body will then, probably appoint acommittee on revision, to report to the assembly of 1801, If this report isadopted two years hence the assembly will send down to the presby- teries a formnl overture to be voted on, in which the desived amendments will he fully stated. Then the veul struggle will take place, and the full extent of the dissatisfaction with the prosent church stan dards will be known, WE HAVE A RIGH When a minister descends NOW. from the | pulpit and mounts the political platform he becomes amenable to the political code like any other politician.

Every man who pays taxos in South Omaha should ponder over the facts and figures presented in another column. <With the most economical management of affairs, an overlap of seventy-five hundred dollars will have been created by the first of next September, and three times that sum in sixteen months, Con- ceding that every penny of the legal tax lovy is collected, the total receipts would amount to twenty-eight thousand dollars on the present valuation. The ordinary running expenses of the present govern- ment will amount to forty-two thou- sand nine hundred dollfrs for one year, leaving a deficit of fourteen thou- ind nine hundred dollars. The law strictly forbids the creation of overlaps and holds the mayor and councilmen in- dividually vesponsible. If the existing government is continued and the law ig- nored, the warrants issued to pay em- ployes will be discounted, even if a pur- chaser is willing to take the risk at any price, and bonds must be issued pe cally and sold at a loss to muke up the deficit.
