Omaha extends sympathy borne of a fellow feeling. Control of the Telegraph. In its apparent mastery of the chief telegraph service of the country, the telephone affords a striking example of the stripling overtaking the glant. The Western Union has been in exist- ence since 1856, while long-distance telephoning has been possible only since 1885, which is the date of the organization of the American pany now in control of the Gould lines. Of late years the telegraph has suf- fered loss of revenues from the specific curtailment of certain classes of busi- ness and from the general inroads made by the telephone and the wire- less. The public is coming to depend less and less upon the telegraph, and with the rapld growth of the telephone some such merger as that now an- nounced was almost Inevitable. It the combination is the beginning of a monopoly, the public will feel that it has a right to be guaranteed better service and no increase of rates. It is possible that an absclute monop- oly may be prevented temporarily through the continued maintenance of the Postal as a separate company, in which ease the Postal as a matter of self-preservation will be tempted to absorb the independent telephone lines to maintain efficient rivalry of the American-Western Union. If develop- ments show the American also acquir- | Ing control of the Postal and the inde- pendenli. then the original Bell inter- ests will have all the existing channels of wire communication, which only the successful commercial operation of the long-promised wireless would be likely to combat. The situation naturally brings up again the subject of the extension of |the postoffice to include telegraphic communication. Argument in favor of making the transmission of these messages a part of the postal system is not without sound basis. If private capital can undertake to merge such vast and essential interests, it would seem as though the advisability of es- tablishing direct government operation might soon have to be reckoned. com- The Cabinet at Work. It cannot but be reassuring to an order-loving people to witness the cabinet once more at work with the president, resuming close co-operation with him in the consideration of press- ing public matters. A harmbnious and active cabinet is indicative of a suc- cessful administration. Back in Lin- coln’s troublous times one of the worst evils he had to contend with was the insubordination and petty personal hostility among his advisers, so that during the darkest days cabinet ses- sions were virtually abandoned. It was a case of the “houge divided against itselt,” and only Lincoln's own indefatigable energy saved it at times from falling. The protracted conference of Pr dent Taft with his advisers, at which the important features of the forth- coming message were cordially en- dorsed, the thoroughness of the sugar fraud investigation applauded and the amendment of interstate commerce and anti-trust laws discussed, is an en- couraging beginning of what promises to be a busy season at the White ! hold a bitter and decisive struggle against the vested rights of the no- bility The Door Still Open. Official announcement by Secretary Knox that the recent Chinese-Japanese agreement relative to mining opera- tions in Manchuria is no Invasion of American rights there and no vielation of the open-door policy to which our government stands committed will be received with satisfaction by the pub- lic as confirmatory of Japanese assur- ances of good faith. Mr. Knox and his assoclates in the State department seem to have conducted a calm, but exhaustive, search into all the possibil- ities of the situation. The conclusion of the secretary that there is no ocea- sion for questioning the Chinese treaty may be regarded setting at rest all the wild rumors about en- croachments of the Japanese beyond the limits recognized by the United States. At the same time, the fact that Mr. Knox has made such searching inquiry as is reflected in his decision may be taken by Japan as notice duly served that we will tolerate no invasion of what we consider our right to equal rank with all other nations in any treaty arrangements made with China. Not only is the eastern door still open, but it Is expected to stay open. The Horticultural Show. The enterprising people of our sister city of Council Bluffs deserve congrat- ulations on the horticultural show which they have brought to such high culmination. The exposition of hor- ticultural products which has been made would do credit to management and exhibitors anywhere. The promoters of the horticultural show have been especially favored this year by the unusually good conditions of orchard crops in most sections of the country, and particularly in the nearby sections from which the greater number of exhibits are drawn. In tak- ing full advantage of these unusual opportunities thus offered the manage- ment has demonstrated that it is wide awake and alert. It is to Omaha’s interest that this effort of Council Bluffs in producing & big horticultural show should have every encouragement and help to make it a signal success. The Ignominy of Ig. The great Ig Dunn, the same Ig who a little more than & year ago was cull- ing the clouds at Denver with great gobs of oratory in nomination of the peerless Bryan, is in the depths of ig- nominy. Far be it from us to withhold the deep sympathy which he deserves. That a court made up of democrats and republicans alike should unanimously adjudge him gullty of contempt for his deliberately insulting brief and enter an order for indefinite disbarment from practice proves that there is no partisanship in it, but merely an effort on the part of the coyrt to bring Ig to a realization of the duties and respon- sibilities of his profession, of which he seenis to be entirely ignorant. of bill of far have been accomplished applied that spirit to their studies.

Seward Blade: Contrary to the desires and efforts of the democratic managors, Judge Dean s not the low man on thelr ticket for supreme judge. It was generally understood that efforts would be made to pull Sullivan and Good through and let Judge Dean hustle for himself. The result 1s no doubt disappointing to the workers for his assoclates on the ticket. Served them right. Stanton Register: The democrats will not build any hopes on getting votes in Omaha next year. When they see that place giving the republicans 2,000 majority as compared with 2,500 the other way last fall they know that do dependance can be placed on that eity. Democracy will go into the fight next year with a clean cut platform and get votes enough up state to win In spite of Omaha Plattsmouth News: The ‘“nonpartisan” idea was conceived for a purpose and falled. It it now up to the opposition to think up something new for next year. They will have to do it. This comes of patronizing the bargain counters for fs- sues. They are all right just as long as they are new. But they don’t last. We would suggest for the next Issue for the opposition, “We are tired and hungry.” Schuyler Free Lance: The nonpartisan law passed by the late lamented demo- cratic legislature possibly had some good sentiment In it, but it was objectionable. And the so-called nonpartisan talk of the democratic press and politiclans in the late campalgn was on the fake order. A party that would nominate a full and com- plete set of candidates and present such timber as Judge Dean was hardly in con- wistent position to talk nonpartisanism. St. Paul Republican: The late election gave the fact emphasis that Nebraska is a republican state. From almost every sec- tion there comes republican majorities, and this, too, in a light year, when tlie votes would naturally follow the administration, if 1t ever did. This means that all the republicans need do next year to win this state and keep it is to nominate a good candidate for governor and let the record of the two parties in management of state affairs speak for itself. Plerce Call: Say, that ‘‘nonpartisan’ talk of the democrats worked fine in this county, didn’t it? For supreme judge Dean recelved 187 majority, Good 100 and Sullivan 182. Say, you republicans who were led to vote for Sullivan, or Good, or Dean by that nonpartisan ery, did veu notice any majorities In this county for Barnes, Faw- cett or Bedgwick? Did any one of tha republican judges run ahead of theiv ticket, as would have been the case had the democrats practiced what they preached regarding a nonpartisan judi- clary? No, it was another democratic trick to catch republican votes—the old “heads 1 win, talls you lose” game repeated. Gat wise, Mr. Republican: get wise. Grand Ieland Independent: Colanel Edgar Howard of the Columbus Telegram, & man so close up to the democralic cen- tral committee as to warrant the state- ment that he was a part of it, regards the recent electlon as showing that there was no great demand for a ‘nonpartisan” su- preme court, and again as domonstrating the effectiveness of the democratlc state According to rellable the “nonpartizan’ What will the that up the it from a democratie | Another paramount issue gone | heart a republican stats | certain—providing | DR PRICE'S CREAM Baking Powder A Spegialty for-Home Baking Fifty Years the Standard.

It goes without saying that Ig would like to pose as a martyr in the cause of freedom, but unfortunately the court has taken away from him that ground by giving him full opportunity to retract and apologize, and his haughty refusal to do so seems to be regarded as a second offense. ters, waiters, and cabmen who live by tak- Ing tips are unfit for jury service.

And most persons would as soon trusi central committee. Well, that's about it. Some voters may have been begufled into voting for partisan candidates as non- partisan judges, but not many of them. It this or any other state ever secures an entirely nonpartisan supreme court or dis- trict bench it will, first of all, have to be done at some other time than when a partisan election is held.

There had to be a solidarity of good breeding. Britain deems itself fortunate in #etting India to the threshold of gov- ernmental reforms. It remains te be seén whether John Bull can coax his reluctant guest inside the door. The fact that pueumatic hammering Las driven the granite workers to sirike affords reflection on the disas- trous effect of hot air knocking in any industry. Most of ns still have time to take warning from the lowa man whose eentenary celebration proved fatal and to be cautlods about taking our hundredth anniversaries too seriously. Another lesson of the abolition of the canteen from the army is indicated in the official report of growing de- sertions from the service. It becomes steadily more evident that to maintain the army with a minimum of disaffec- tion in the ranks the men must not be deprived utterly of such social re- laxation as is afforded in abundance to those in other flelds of usefulness. The canteen was tha soldier's club, and, deprived of it, he betakes him- self to outside resorts for his pleas ures, or else cultlvates such_a spirit of insubordination that ends too often in desertion. : 1t will not be surprising, in view of the statistice just made public, it a strong effort is not made at the com- ing session of congress to restore the canteen. There will, however, be strong opposition and no relaxation of it. Nearly every army officer of im- portance favors the canteen as a prac- tical measure, but the strength of the sentimental side of the question must not be underestimated. The Budget Crisis in England, The forecast is made that the House of Lords will reject the budget and that King Edward’'s attempt to estab- lish a compromise as the way out of a political impasse will have been un- availing. The attitude of the lords Is bound te be denounced as insufferable arrogance by the Commons, who have asserted exclusive right to control tax- ation and supplies sincé the days of King John, and the claim of the lords to veto power over revenue bills will be thrown into an election, and in this the lords are taking a desperate chance, for econditions were never more favorable for a liberal' victory. Rejection ef the budget by the lords is based on its boast of ancient privi- leges. The budget aims to revolutio ize the land schedule by throwing into the public treasury much of the un- earned increment of the vast estates held by the aristocracy, which would tend ultimately to cause & reversion of the land to the people. Out of the ex- isting parliamentary deadlock will come a campalgn weltering in parti- sanship, and the battle at the hustings over the budget will focus all the strength of socialism that has been fomenting in every center of unrest.

The saving clause of his sentence of indefinite disbarment, however, lles in leaving an open door for Ig to get con- trition. It rests entirely with him to raise the embargo of his exile. All he has to do is to take it back and apolo- glze. It is for Ig, himself, to say whether his ignominy shall be of long or short duration. In deciding the Normal school case the supreme court does pot pass on the question ralsed by Governor Shal- lenberger appointing a member of the state senate in direct violation of the constitutional prohibition of such an appointment. The court must have re- garded the unconstitutionality of the action self-evident.

West Point Republican: Consistency is something that makes the urbane Chester- fleld of the Columbus Telegram look foolish when he don't put it in. With the laud- able desire to adorn a tale and point & moral over the result of the recent election, he asserts, that the smallness of the re- publican majority is due to the fact of its having been a nonpartisan election. In the next lines he alleges that the republican slump must be attributed to the defection of proyressive republican voters in the rural districts, Having delivered himself in statesmanlike fashion of these dlvergent pronunclamentoes, It occurred to him that | he had forgotten to make obeisance and pay homage to the great letter-writing trinity at the head of the democratic ship | of state, Byrnes, Guenther and Matthews, And so, without regard to former a: ment of causes and with a suavity that would have put some of the immortals to flight and to shame, he salaams profoundly and ascribes to that great triumvirate all | the credit and glory achieved by the demo- crats, Individually and collectively, and pronounces their work to be but little | shert of the miraculous.
