An article in the Railway Review discussing Railway Preparedness for War' goes to show that no program for ‘‘preparedness’’ against an armed conflict can stop within strictly military end vaval Jines. '‘In modern warfare,” it tells everything depends upen mobilization and thi® in turn ig a question of railway facilities I'istances are especially great in ard the time required for massing munitions and supplies at any of attack may e a deciding faesor in the result.” I 1ts opinfon, the success of Germany up to the troops, present time is to be ascribed more to the plans and preparation of its railway system than to its Pig guns or airships. It advocates a survey of cur transportation situation to be followed up by government aid to such further construction | wr will afford every secutity against invasion. Lot va g've the Rallway Review credit, how- over, for seeing that the extension of the “pre- ! parednest” program teo take in raliroads would ill fall short of the mark, for |t observes: We apprehsnd that some study|of the common vads and watorsays would te inclubled in such apr Tranep riation ger the common rouds has os sumed {nuse e imoortance with the decelopment, of motor vehigles.

In continental Lurope the railroads and other roade, and the tehicles that traverse them, are all part and parcel of the military machine. In this country our transportation facilities have been deyeloped for the accommodation of trade and traffic and the convenience of soclal and moral intéercourse, and we doubt whether the American people are willing to.make military considerations para- mount in all the common activities of everyday life, Here's An Idea from Missonri, *An idea emanating from asMissour) man, ex- ploited by Collier's ‘as praiseworthy and prac- ticable, ought to appeal to the serious comsider- ation of our city authorities, What is proposed is a “Domestic Animal Zoo™ to take the place of, or supplement, the “Wild Animal Zeo™ which. it; explanation and mccompanying reasdns in good Missouri language is as foltows: Instead of camels and buffalo, let. us. have & fe Holsteln, Jersey, and shorthorn cows and ,calves. Thousanda of city people haven't seen & cow for years, and other thousands would not know 8 . Hereford from & Red Polled animal, let us bave some | chickens, turkeys, ducks, and. geese instead of cranes, { storks, and pelicans. Let the ohildren /learn about Rhode Island Reds, Black Minorcas, Buff. Pymouth Rocks. A concrete example of the. profit.and pleasure of poultry ralsing would be worth much.to any ehild. | of the city Now, we would not dispense with'the butfalo and the deer, nor leave the bedr pits tenantiess, but we would locate the domestic animal z0o in # different park. There is room to doubt weather the forest creatures and ‘the barnyare animals would mix well, or appreciata too near neighborhood. But that the one could. be, made interesting ‘and indtructive as the other is hardly open to debate. B — Protesting an “Infant Industry.” From the time the government of the United States was founded, the ‘democratic party,” ‘or those varied and diverse:political organizations Whose vagarious doctrines the demoeratio party we Know nowadays has fallen heir to as resdus ary legatée, hap opposed the policy of protecting by the imposition of a tarift or otherwise the budding industries of the country. In season and out of seaton these advocates of free trade lave sneered'at the “fufant industry” and have energetically -fomented sectional division on the policy with &' persisténcy that has brought dis< acter as often as the voters have listened to the plea, But row a change has come over the spirit of the dream. It {s only aifew months since the Underwdod tarift Jaw, with #a tincture of free trade, ‘became effecfive, and even yet leaders-of the party are referring to it as the’solution of the vexed tariff question. The war ia Burope I¢ blamed" for the ‘tallure of the tarift law.to produce sufficlent revenue to nieet expenses, and it is now to be made the excuse for‘the demo- crats In a departure ‘from thelr jpartisan’ tradis tions.

What he would have preferred, in his knowledge of | the gravity of the situatjon, wolld have been to have every able-bodied man and all the resources of Great | Britain plated under bis commend. But the British public would have shouted down any suggestion of conscription. Jaat August when the puiiic shibboleth Mr. Asquith's own { was stlll “Pusiness as Usual’ followers, Ifberals and radicals and laborites, would have been loudest in the chorus.

New ones miist be sent out to fill thelr places. The gaps in shattered regiments had to be filled with,fresh recruits. Before rifles and guns could be furnished to the new army, the army in Fratios must be supplied. The wastage in rifles, ap in every- thing elee, surpassed all calculations.

We designate different parts of | the state of Nebraska by nieans' of the names of some ninety counties, When | suggested not dropping the names South Omaha and Dundee 1 meant, "of course, to use them merely as “‘sub- names” as it werg, to designate various parts of the bigger gity, as we now use counties to designate, various parts. of l the state and as people In all metro- politan cities use names to indicate what part of the city they refer to. 1 stand corrected by Mr. Agnew in re- gard to Jersey City not being & part of Greater New York, but thet is immaterial to the argument. The fact remains and he cannot. deny it, that residents of New York, City still use the names of the original towns and sections in which they, lived before the greater city embraced them all, and these 4 are the legal ones. It would be absurd, it a «New Yorker asked another New Yorker where he lived, for him to reply, *‘Here in New, York,!' He would say ‘4 live jn ‘Washington Helghts” or "I live in Brook- yn'" Mr. Agnew doesn't overflow with civic pride for South Omaha. He registered &a being from Omaha because of being afraid people would “turn up their nosca and eay, ‘Oh, you are from Hog Town'.” He didn’'t have the gumption apparently to turn_on such. maligners and defend his city. Understand, then, Brother Agrew, that my proposition ig uot to fetain the name South Omaha, as a separate city. After the vote of Jume 1, no one has the power 1o do that. But as a/name to designate | a definite section of Greater Omaha it | will be ugeful.
