A lot of people can actually sym- pathize deeply with those Colorado mountain sheep Which died of starva- tion. Living was eyidently high for them, too. And yet it is not to be inferred that J.

It is noticed that the Chinese ques- tion mark, Wu Ting Fang, is now am- bassador to France. China has evi- dently found out all it wanted to know about the United States. Tariff Peace with Canada. The announcement comes from Washington to a well-pleased public that tariff troubles with Canada are not to be, Both the Rominlon gov- ernment and our own have preferred to avold a clash of this kind, for the maximum rate of the Payne tarift would work hardship for Canada and retaliation on the part of Canada would work a hardship for the people of the United States. The time limit for the settlement was April 1, and unless the settlement had been ef- fected before that date the ‘‘pinch™ rate would have gone Into effect for a time at least. Neither people and neither govern- ment wanted the maximum tariff and the difficulty seemed only a matter of understanding the situation properly. Yet the commission sent to Ottawa did not make much progress and returned to Washington with unsatisfactory re- sults. Canada was apparently ob- durate and refused to come to any agreement, and it was not until Presi- dent Taft took up the negotiations that conditions began to look brighter. As a result of his personal attention an agreement has been reached and commercial strife between the two countries has been successfully avoided. This adjustment of the tariff dif- ferences is another triumph for Presi- dent Taft. His farseeing judgment smoothed out difficulties when other individuals failed, and, further, when it appeared that a breach was inevi- table. Canada and the United States are separated only by an imaginary line, recognized on maps and by the officials of the two governments. At the same time pleasant and profitable trade relations had developed which the two countries could not well af- ford to sacrifice to any such strife as threatened for several weeks. Canada is growing with wonderful rapidity. Great reaches of territory to the north and west are being opened up to agriculture by immi- grants schooled on American farms. With a growing country, increasing rapidly In wealth, and peopled with our own relatives to deal with, the United States could well afford to use all the diplomacy at c¢ommand to maintain mutually - satisfactory com- mercial and industrial intercourse. Sir. Ernest H, Shackelton. The impression given the banquet- ers in New York City recently by the appearance, side by side, of two re- nowned: polar explorers whose re- search and expeditions have taken them to the opposite ends of the earth will not soon be forgotten. Com- mander Robert E. Peary, whose untir- ing efforts landed him ‘at the most northerly point on the globe, an American, introduced to the banquet- ers Sir Ernest H. Shackelton, an Eng- lishman, who has penetrated into the Antarctic z0pé to within ninety-seven miles of the most southerly point. Sir Ernest on his return from his southern expedition immediately laid his records, data and diary before English scientists, and after a satls- factory inspection had been made he immediately became the undisputed hero of the nation. He plans to con- tinue his exploration in the south and hopes this time to be able to reach the goal of his ambition. He is not discouraged by the incompleteness of bis former attempt and expects to profit by previous mistakes and mis- calculations, This next expedition will be post- poned for several months. Captain Soott is to sall for the south on a sim- {lar expedition in the near future and Sir Ernest does not wish to rival his eftorts. But when sufficient funds are avallable for the purpose he will coast along the South Indian ocean for the further scientific exploration of “Antarctica,” in order to ascertain some of the possibilities of that huge continent. Later he will turn south- ward directly toward the pole. By his behavior Sir Ernest Shackel- ton has commanded universal admira- tion and his attitude toward his com- petitors for south polar hopors is chivalrio and generous. He is an Anglo-Saxon type and has the dogged determination needed to attain suc- cess in this gigantic undertaking. It 18 no easy task to penetrate Into a frozen zone for even a short distance, and Sir BErnest not only deserves honor for what he has done, but de- gerves to have his next polar expedi- tion crowned with suc Liberia The little African republic of Li- beria, in which the United States has taken a peculiar interest for many years, {8 again in trouble. The aiMm- culty is not only In finances, but iIn boundaries, in policing its frontier and in protecting the adjoining states agalnst the Interlor savages who rendezvous in Liberia preparatory to ralds on neighboring communities. This s not the first time Liberia has been in trouble, and the remarkable part of it all is that there is great sim- flarity between this case and .those of other years, A short time ago when the Liberia: government applied to Secretary Root The unsual demand for Paris resi- dences among the American million- alres suggests that, atter all, the spirit of the millionalre aristocrat must be more Buropean than American. e ] fana judge pronounced ‘ the to help straighten out its affairs the statement was made that the United States could not give much assistance. 'But & commission of Americans was sent to Monrovia by President Roose- velt to investigate, and now Secretary Knox has thought proper to take a more active part in the sjtuation. He belleves that we should look after Liberia and, If necessary, to establish THE BEE: government has not yet been dis- closed. If the United States does not assist direotly it has the alternative of allowing the British and Frehch authorities in adjoining states to help police the boundary, as they do In China and Moroceo, with the strict agreement that Liberia shall retain its self-government. Census Expeotations. A lot of people in Omaha are in- dulging In wild dreams as to what population the coming census will credit Omaha. Omaha has unques- tionably enjoyed a substantial and gratifylng growth since the last cen- sus enumeration, and will certainly show up well in the forthcoming cen- sus by comparison. Omaha wants to be accorded all the population it pos- sesses, but it does not want to be the victim again of senseless padding, as it was in the census of 1890. The 1890 census takers marked Omaha up to 140,000, speculating on futures and discounting what it was hoped the census ten years later would make good. The 1900 census, however, cut us down to 102,666, with the conse- quence that to all not familiar with the facts, it looked as if Omaha had actually suffered a shrinkage of 30 per cent, when every one knows that Omaha has steadily grown and that thero were more people here in 1900 than ever before. While it is not of general informa- tion, the census bureau a few years ago made a correction of the 1890 figure for Omaha, in order to have a proper basis for comparison and for per capita computation by taking the figures for 1880 and 1900 to be cor- rect and securing & mean between them on the assumptfon that the rate of population growth during that time had been really uniform, The correct figure for 1890 population was thus estimated to be 66,636, which in all probability is very near the mark. The census bureau has made a similar computation of estimated population for subsequent years, the last being for the year 1905, listing Omaha with a population of 120,566. Another point to be borne in mind in connection with the coming census is that Omaha is one of the few cities of its class whose territorial limits have remained unchanged for two decades. The geographical boundaries of Omaha are the same now that they were in 1890, whereas a large number of cliles took in new territory ten years ago, and quite a few will have taken in new territory since then. ‘Whatever -population Omaha shows up will be the actual and natural incre- ment and not due to any wholesale annexation, much as we would have been willing to assimilate some of our adjacent suburbs. ' Omaha cannot be represented in the census as the pop- ulation center which it really is, be- cause all the people who do business not lving within the city limits, ‘Without waiting for the census takers, however, it is safe to assert that Omaha has added more people to its population in the last ten years than in any previous ten-year period, and ought this time to pass, in fact, the padded fiction with which we were Inflicted twenty years ago. “United States Model for Nations.” Americans very properly feel a sense of satisfaction over the remark recently made by King Frederick of Denmark to the American minister, Mr. Egan—‘The United States is a model for all nations.” Minister Egan and his family were recently at home on a visit and the statement was made by his majesty during an audience glven Mr, Egan immediately following his return to the Danish capital. King Frederick has for some time taken a lively interest in American af- falrs and has made occasional inquiry regarding special conditions which prevall here. Many Danes now live in America, having come here to settle and to become citizens. They send back glowing accounts of prosperous conditions and have influenced the adoption in Denmark of our most mod- ern methods of indnstry and much of our machinery, Our commerce, our inventions and our spirit of hustle and move which have been in evidence in all parts of the globe are well known and admired there, and King Freder- ick, appreciating their value, pays the United States a great compliment. ‘While our country may be a model for all nations, there are still many things we can learn from the steady and reliable old nations of Europe, and Denmark is by no means the least of these. Americans can learn much from the Dames in the cultivation of the soil so as to make it all valuable and in keeping agricultural pursuits popular with the people. Denmark is strictly an agricultural nation and in that respect is a good deal of a model in itself. We Americans can only say in return that we are glad to be of service to other peoples and we shall feel free to draw upon thelr experience for inspiration and guldance. Among the natural resources of Ne- braska listed for conservation are the sand hills, which, we are assured, will be found to be productive. The in- scription, ‘‘Great American Desert,” which once ornamented our school goography maps Covering practically all the territory now comprised within the limits of Nebraska, was long ago proved a fiction.

If history is repeated they will soon go before “twelve good men and true” and—be promptly ac- quitted, A policeman who can speak seven languages may come in handy some time, even in Omaha, but the main thing expected of a policeman is that he shall be able to voice the law. At any rate, Mayor “Jim's" pro- nouncement has served as a hint that if we ever get a constitutional conven- tion in Nebraska capital relocation will be a live and a lively issue.

A dozen instances of adul- Washington Life A bateh of reports from the pure food and drug bureau of the Department of Agriculture turns some light on the activi- ties of the government in enforcing the |1aw and the manner in which makers and dealers cheat and imperil the lives of con- sumers. Short weight, adulteration, doped food, poison and false labeling were some of the means employed. In all the con- victions secured the penalty ranged from small fines to confiscation or destruction of the goods. A shipment of preserves from Houston, Tex., each jar, according to the label, containing “one full pound,” had but fourteen ounces and cost the shippers the goods. A Connectiout firm paid a fine of $100 for misbranding packages of camphor and a like sum was extracted from the treasury of a Georgla summer drink fac- tory which neglected to mention on the label that the dope carried cocalne. A Washington patent medicine factory put out @ nérve tonic warranted to cure any old nerve, ‘mentioned that it ‘“contalns no poison,” though found to have arsenic and strychnine. The goods were condemned and destroyed. A like fate met “‘fermented apple cider vinegar from Toledo, O., made of acetic acld, artificlally colored. The most Imposing literary effort in label production encountered by the authorit enclosed bottles of “Mother's Friend,” an alleged medicine componnded at Atlanta, Ga., and warranted to cure all the ills of womankind. The mixture was found to contaln “gn ofl and a small quantity of soap.”’ The goods were condemned and the firm warned to tell the truth on the label. “Cane and maple syrup” from Denver had on the label the words, “cane and'’’ almost invisible and the makers were induced by a fine of $20 and costs to make the print visible. A brand of pepper put out by a St. Louls firm, consisting chiefly of grouna fruit stones and pepper shells, brought a terated milk and ice cream prosecuted In the District of Columbia netted fines rang- ing from $10 to $%5. Boston sent a consign- ment of “dessicated eggs” paddled with formaldehyde, to New York, and were found so strong on reaching the latter port that they were destroyed. The goods were headed for a bake shop. Doped cure- alls, frightened Into obscurity two years 2go, appear In the limelight as deadly and brazen as e Failure to mention in the label that the goods contain cocaine, the correct percentage of alcohol and the dangerous acetanilid, cost the makers or dealers from $2%5 to 360 each. Penalties in most cases of first offenders are moder- ate, but should the makers or dealers be called to account a second time they will get all that the law allows, with board and lodging thrown in. The autograph fad has always been mani- fest in Washington just a little more than anywhere else, perhaps, on account of the assemblage of greatness. Just now the craze seems to have taken a new turn. It 1s not enough for the faddist to send in his book to Speaker Cannon or Vice President Sherman, or some other notable of the capitol, but it has become a common thing to ask for “ghost” or ‘“skeleton” signa- tures. Occaslonally. a tolerant senator or repre- sentative will consent to write his name on a plece of paper in heavy ink, then fold the paper across the middle of the signa- tura to see what sort of a nondescript figure the dnk has. smeared “itself . into, Most of the, personages, however, draw the line on ghost autographs, even those who are willing to adorn the autograph book of some fanciful wanderer. “Say, you," crled a real regular repub- lican, pointing an accusing finger at a genulne, untamed democrat on the flgor of the house on the historlg Saturday after- noon just after the cxcltement was ali over. “I know what's the matter. 1 know why we have been beating each other to death today. I know why we have as- Saulted the speaker. I know why there's blood on the moon. It's so simple I wonder why somebody didn't think of it before.” “Tell me, little one,” demanded the demo- crat, cupping his hand behind his ear and felgning acute attention. “Why," gurgled the real regular republi- can, “this is Willlam Jennings' birthday.” “Discovered,” bawled the genuine, un- tamed, slapping his forehead in well simu- Iated agony. And then, laughing like a couple of kids, they locked arms and chased oft in search of a drink. The republican was right. It was Mr. Bryan's birthday., He is 0 years old. “If senators really need the services of a rubber and a scrubber,” says the Washing- ton Post, “if they would be sweeter and cleaner for these ministrations, they should not be intimidated by the cry of Insurgents and economists. There is nothing wrong in having a masseur, unless he rubs too hard or rubs the fur the wrong way. Certainly the senate cannot be accused of grafting in favor of any particular clique, for it must be assumed that no senator would need the services of a scrubber more than an- other. The Insurgents cannot pretend that they are so immaculate as never to need a scrud, nor should they charge that the regulars or the democrats are beyond the redemption of a vigorous scrubber. “Of course, there must be an honest ef- fort to cut down expenses by $300,000,000, and by dispensing with a magseur a start will be made. Still, there is a lingering doubt, somehow, that the move is advis- able. If cleanliness is next to godliness it 18 certalnly preterable to penurjousness. The country might criticise senators it it should get the Idea that they were ay- barites, lolling In debilitating luxury— * * ¢ the sons Of Bellal, flown with insolence and wine. But the senate could not indulge in ex- ocessive luxury on the proposed expenditure of $1800 a year, and perhaps the people would not have risen as one man i fren- zled protest against such squandering of the publie funds. At any rate it seems to us that senators should have taken the risk, rather than invite the thought that they are neglectful of the.rules of health and beauty." Unlife in Farm Values.
