The mortal- ity statistics are enough in themselves to convince one that this need is Im perative. Experts have figured out that 3,000,000 persona are seriously sick all the time in the United States from preventable diseases, and that one- third of this number are in the work- ing period of life, and then they bring this down to a monetary basfs and show that three-quarters of a million actual workers are losing on an ayerage of $700 per annum, an approximate loss from {llness of $500,000,000, to say nothing of the expense of attending them, which may be estimated at an equal sum. Six hundred thousand deaths occur in one year from prevent. able causes, Senator Owen asserts. It we may regard these figures as anywhere near accurate, they are ap- palling and serve only more clearly to point out the government's duty in this direction. We are expending mil- llons to save our forests, to increase our wealth-producing powers, and this is right, but we must look with even more solicitude to the conservation of human life, avolding waste and de- struction there also. Those Indiana Democrats. Mr. Bryan and the rest of his party must feel elated at the peace and har- mony animating the Indiana demo- crats as they go into their state conven- tion. No wonder they are so arrogant in their assurance of success this fall. It this convention, the first to be held, may be regarded as a eriteriom then we may confidently look for a season of old-fashioned Bourbon hilarity. Here is ‘Colonel Bryan telling the Indianians what he wants them to do. They listen attentively and then go and do as they please, most of them slipping a blue chip bearing a Pluto sign into their pockets as a lucky stone, thus showing once more Mr. Bryan's complete hold on his party in the state where Lick Springs are lo- cated. Governor Marshall as the state leader suggests a convention endorse- ment of a senatorial candidate. This is received with the same enthuslasm -| that greeted Mr. Bryan's proposals and Mr. Tom Taggart candidate for the United States senate forthwith de- nounces the governor’'s suggestion as a bit of impudence and declares against the convention and for the primary plan, Thereupon John E. Lamb, vice chalrman of the democratic national committed, another senatorial aspirant, mounts the highest avallable eminence and demounces Brother Tag- gart as an undesirable boss and com- mits himself to the Marshall plan. Just as thinjgs are reaching the boiling point, Senator Shively, chosen as the peacemaker, comes into the fray with an olive branch in his teeth and a chip on each shoulder, denouncing both convention and primary and in- sisting that the choice of senator shall be left to the legisiature. It {s AiMcult to view this situation with a straight face. After all the nolse we have heard about insurgents in congress, the hurrahing over by- elections in Massachusetts and New York, the loud boasts of a ‘“‘united democracy,’” this first state convention reveals the democrats divided into more factions, really, than it has can- didates, and with no earthly hope of anything approaching united action. It is but a forerunner of factional fights brewing in other states, Mr. Bryan's among them, that shows again the obvious fact that the chief reason why the democratic party has never been able to govern the nation {s that it cannot govern itself The Paving Campaign. The check that has been put on the local paving campaign may develop into something of a blessing, not that the paving asked for ls not needed, nor that the property owners are not anxious for the improvement. The growth of Omaha has been exemplified in no direction better than in the at- tention that has been given to its thoroughfares. Citizens have been more than enterprising in providing for the surfacing of streets, and In other construction necessary to bring the city up to a high polui, but some- times it {8 well to make haste slowly. A score of years ago Omaha under- went an experience In the paving line that was both costly and unpleasant. The zeal that led to the putting down of many miles of wooden block pave- ment, that subsequently rotted, was commendable because of the spirit, but unfortunate because of the result. Another unpleasant experience of Omaba in the matter of public im provement came Iin connection with the levylng of the tax to pay for the Buchanan and Homesteads. | In the courae of a recent spesch In the house advocating rigld adherence | to the original principle that home. stead rights belong only to actual set- tlers, Congressman J. Warren Keifer of Ohlo brought to light a point of his- tory as to homestead legislation that should not be lost sight of In this day when the country Is enjoying to such Aunbounded extent the emoluments of | territorial expansion in the vast em- pire stretching from the Mississippl to the Pacific. That point of history lsy that the republican party not only |shaped and perfected the laws by which homesteads were obtained in the west, but that it originated and pushed to passage the first law bear- ing on the subject in spite of the veto of a democratie president. Through the influence of the repub- licans, in congress chiefly, a home- stead measure was passed by congress in 18569, Agitation for such a meas. ure had gone on for several years and the people had already come to regard it as not only necessary, but entirely warranted by organic law. President Buchanan was a strict constructionist end assumed to be a great constitu tional lawyer, and when the bill came to him for his approval he vetoed it on the ground that it was “invidious, agrarian and preferred the farmer class to the professional,” and was therefore unconstitutional. This remarkable position of the president was sufficlent to defeat the legislation and for a time check the popular gentiment that was rapidly gaining ground that the country needed a homestead law. Not until 1862 wete the republicans able to bring the matter again to the front in congress. Then the first homestead law was enacted, notwithstanding the fact that the country was in the throes of the greag civil war and men’'s minds ‘were as a rule not absorbed in the pur- suit of so peaceful a policy as home- stead legislation. And the point should be iipressed on every mind to- day that this original law was based upon the central idea of actual settle- ment on the land. It is unfortunate that in the intervening years this fundamental principle has been too often eircumvented by those engaged in speculation and not home-seeking, but that does 1ot militate in the re- motest degree against the enduring benefits that have accrued under this legislation. When this first measure passed con- gress and came up to President Lin- coln he, unlike his predecessor, saw no conflict betweeh it and the constitution and promptly approved the bill with his signature, making it the law that led really to the organized settlement of the west which today forms so large and important a part of the United States’ producing powers, | Reward the Sacrifice. Governor Hughes made a personal sacrifice in accepting a place on the gupreme bench wiMdch the president feared and the people feit he might not be able to make. Now, let con- gress reward the sacrifice by passing the bill providing for an increase In the salaries of members of the supreme court. The paltry estate of the late Justice Brewer should be a rebuke to the American people and a prod to eon- gress. Why should the richest nation in the world not have the best ma- terial there is for the highest tribunal in the land? It is not a questign of paying such sums as big corporitions pay for legal talent, but it 18 a ques- tion of paying & man enough money to enable him and his family to Ive with becoming dignity at the seat of government, where the expense of liv- ing Is high, and to enjoy to some ex- tent the common right of laying up |something for the future. Shut off from the advantage of most invest- ments, & justice has only his salary on which to depend. It should, therefore, be more than it is now. No member of congress should dare oppose the bill on the ground of econ- omy, for that would be parsimony, if not cheap politics. Dignity and honor have always had their market value in this country and should always have, but there should be no watered stock in the capitalization, The dedication of the peace palace erected at Washington as the gift of Andrew Carnegle to-seal the bond of amity between the twenty-one Ameri- can republics Is another certain sign of the universal peace to which all good nations look, and the world will applsud this monument, but it would have more timely force it it were not that Peru and Ecuador are just now sparring for an opening at each other, with Chile only awaiting the chance to Regulating the storage of combusti bles is to be commended, but it only partly meets the reguirements. The fire limits should be extended, more rigld provisions for building should be enacted. The city council still has plenty of work along this line before it. The fact that the Indiana democrats are not paying very much attention to advice from Colonel Bryan doesn't seem to interest the democratic papers. A great deal depends on which side the insurgency is located.

It is the last blow to have the 3 per cent iIncreass in the price of the cheaper cuts of meat ascribed by Chicago to the recent campaign for educating the Ameri- can people to eat tough meat. For it was but the other day that the spokesmen for the packing houses were ascribing the high price of beefsteak to the unwiliingness of Americans to take anything but cholce cuts. Thanks to the Department of Agri- culture and_its cookbook, the cheap cuts have been made dear, but has any one noticed any markdown sales of porter- house steak? Boom in Pardon Industry.

JOE FOLK IN THE RU Missourian Lines Up with Harmon, Marshall, and t Chicago Post 8o, former Governor Joseph W. Folk is “out for” the democratic nomination for the presidency. The dispatohes carele have it that he s “out for the presidency but this, of course, {8 a far different mat- ter. Stlll, we are glad that he is “out.” He made a tremendously fine start for his political career in the St. Louis district attorneyship. Do you remember, for In- stance, how the corrupt police chief sent insolent word to young Folk that ha would communicate with him only in writing, and how young Foik calmly sent back word that he would communicate with the chief only through indictments? And, a!though there has been somewhat of a halt in this career of late, aithough it has not moved forward from the governorship to the sen- atorship, yet we feel that there Is good material there for further progress. We can see no reason why Folk of Missourl should not be well in the running with Marshall of Indlana and Harmon of Ohlo. But—once more, and yet again—how about Bryan of Nebraska? NING.

The fron foreman—a serious faced, bull necked young man—stood below for a mo- ment, bawling up a savage warning at two daring fellows, relates Munsey's. They wers riding upon a huge iron beam that salled up from the street, awayed ponder- ously in mid-air and then swung rapidly into its lofty anchorage in the mare of columns, posts and girders, e made a quick grimace of rellet and answered a q.estlon, his eyes all the time darting anx: lously over the great Iron cage above him, “Yep!

Ho spoke of it as stolidly as one would mention a wasts of materials, and abruptly concluded the Interview by sliding down & ladder to yell at a derrick tender. Thirty minutes later an ambulance rang its way Into the narrow, truck-congested street. Then, in rapid succession, another came, and yet another. Three accidents had happened and the foreman was curs- ing the day for a “blue Monday." One of his best “pushers,” or assistant foremen, had & leg stripped to the bone by a #/iding fifteen ton column. Another man had a hand clipped off at the wrist. A third—the same derrick tender whom he had but recently admonished, an old bridge worker who In different acoldents on other jobs had suffered fractures of both legs and several ribs—had been whirled over the derrick drum, and now lay helpless on a hospital cot, groaning with the pain of a dislocated shoulder. Only two gangs, of seven men each, were disturbed—and they merely for a few min- tes—by these dlsasters. The rattling dare devil work went swittly and remorselessly n. Three iron workers out of a walting line of a domen eager applicants got the places of the injured men. The others, standing there patiently, with their overalls in' little newspaper bundies tucked under their arms, looked disappointed, but hope- ful. There was scarcely & word of com- ment on the accidents. Down on the New York water front there is an unprecedented demand for ocean- going excursion boats for June 18, when Theodore Roosevelt returns from Europe.

Nearly every blg organization—patriotie, political or soclal—in the city, and scores from other citles, have engaged or expest to engage steamboats for June 18, and there Is & good chance that thers will not be boats enough to go around at any price. Some of the greeting parties plan to go far to sea and It Is expeoted that there will be a race to be the first to meet Col- onel Roosevelt's steamship. Most of the ships will be equipped with wireless and some of the welcoming organizations are planning to distinguish themselves by the addition to their equipment of unique nofse- making instruments, While it is not yet known whether any war vessels will come hers to take part In the naval parade, a movement Is already on foot to have the forts at the harbor entrance salute the home-comer as he steams up the bay The census enumerator /s a person who attends strictly to his business, although as it happens this business is to pry into the Intimate affairs of other peopls.
