SepEsess— In inaugurating our municipal bathing pools this season the co-operation of the weather man was evidently overlooked. Like the prophets of old, Omalia-made school teachers may not be fully appreciated at home, but they seem to be in brisk demand in other cities. Perhaps If these powder factories were op- crated on & profit-sharing system there might not be so many explosions, especially -if due to inside carelessness. Ees— Owing to the press of international events matters of national concern are lost in the shuf- fle. Grape juice as a diplomatic stimulant has retired from the State department. S——— Secretary of State Pool expects to save the taxpayers $200 next year by buying auto number plates cheaper and selling them at the same old price.

These | fees belong in the general fund of the state and | only be appropriated by the legislature, | Unless specifically set apart by law for a definite purpose, fees cannot legally be diverted to any use of any department. If the legislature neg- lects to make provision for the support of any branch of the state government it may be dis- continued, or its activities may be carried on in the hope that some future legislature will meet | the expense by a defic'ency appropriation, but it cannot be supported by the income of fees col- lected. The decision in the case of former | Anditor Eugene Moore does not apply in the | present emergency, and any official who relles on that to protect him in misusing state funds will find he has made a sad mistake. Officials of the state are responsible for all collections made by them under the law, .nd have no au- | thority to appropriate them for any use of the | state or otherwise. State Treasurer Hall seems to be about the only democrat at the state house who is keeping his level these days. Proof in t.ha Pr;cedent. The Omaha Bee sugkests the advisabllity of ap- pointing a republican to ‘e position of United States district judge, made vacunt by the death of Judge Munger. Can The Bee point to the appoint- ment of a democrat to such a position under a re- publiean administration? Not on your life, when @ republican was in sight—Plattsmouth Journal If the Journal insists upon tak.ng a )nkn} seriously, it must be up to The Bee to meet the issue. We have never known a time when there were not plenty of good republicans in sight for every appointive office to be g.ven out by a re- publican administration, just as there are always dozens of deserving democrats waiting for every plece of ple. Can The Bee point to an appoint- ment of a democrat to a judlic.al position under a republican administration? The Bee cer- ’ tainly can without even going back further than the last preceding republican president, as wit- i ness this partial list: Bupreme Court—Kdwand D, White of Loulsiana, democrat, promoted to be chief justice; H. H. Lur- ton of Tennossee, democrat; Joseph K. Lamar of QGeorgia, democrat Circult Court—Jullan W. Mack of Illinois, dem- ocrat; John E. Carland of South Dakota, democrat Distriet Courts—H, G. Connor of North Ca o ina, democrat; H. A Smith of South Carolina, dem- M ocrat; Gordon Russeil of Texas, democrat. Despite this fine array of precedent, how- ever, no one expects President Wilson to name a republican for the vacant judgeship In Ne- braska, and so far as we know, no republicans are applylng. Though they prate loudly about their devotion to the principle of a nonpartisan | Judiciary, democrats cannot be held to the prac- tice of their preaching when life jobs are within their reach, What About Mexico? In its jubilation over the prospective adju ment of the difficulty between the United State: and Germany the administration seems to have lost sight again of a serious situation much nearer home. General Carranza has pald not the slightest attention to the All-American note, other than to inquire in an unofficial way of the South American diplomats if they really rep- | resent thelr governments in joining in the move to pacity Mexico, He has no word for the United States, and has made no apparent effort to com- ply with the suggestion that he unite w th other leaders in a conference to establish peace. The Red Cross reports that many Mexicans are starv- ing to death in the capital city of that (ountry, | now occupied by Carransa's forces. This the | “first chief” denies, but the Red Cross people are not given to exaggeration, and will doubtless be belleved by Americans. If peace were re- stored at once, most of Mexico's population would have to be supported by charity until farm operations could be resumed throughout the de- vastated regions. At present the unfortunate people there face a winter of starvation, because of Carranza’s obstinacy. ‘What is to be done about Mexico? A Concession to Commerce. The British government has in effect given its consent to the free passage of long delayed sh pments of goods from Germany and Austria | to the United States. This modification of the | order In councll, that laid this commer.e under | & ban amounting almost to interdiction, may | not be ind cative of intent on part of Great Britain to relax the severity of its sea vigil, but | it does show that the injust.ce of the operation of the general embargo thus imposed is becom- ing apparent in high quarters. Mill ons of dol- lars worth of goods, now held on the docks at European ports, which really are owned in the United States, will be released, and something | of relief will be provided. for the stringency felt by manufacturers in this country. The con- cesslon to American commerce lacks someth ng | of heartiness that might be expeated from a friendly nation, seeking to further advance its own interests; but it has been granted, and that is the main point. Considered with the intimat.on | that the German subsea campaign is to be more | strietly confined to belligerents, and that even | greater significance attaches to recent negotia- tions, the present turn will be accepted as one more straw showing the set of the wind towards | John Bull Getting a Lesson. John Bull is coming to Ignow something of how Uncle Sam felt fifty years ago, when his | | dollar was so sadly depreciated in the markets of the world. For a century or longer, the | pound sterling has stood as the monetary unit of the world, and on it was based fe value of al! other moneys. Whatever the medium of ex- change of a nation, when it came to pur.hase or borrow, it found its coinage balanced against the pound sterling, and made to come up to the | mark. Now it ls different, and the dollar that | was deeply discounted half a century ago is the | standard, and the pound sterling is found to be short of the mark. War still has its effect on money, and gold knows no country, has no patriotism, and takes advantage of every op- portunity to advantage itself. Discount of fits | money and shrinkage of its credit is part of the | price every nation pays for engaging in war, no matter how holy the cause, | company cut of business I | night In the earlv spring he an? h's mates came out | president of the ord r s announced | drops in at the door the mew thought scoots for tall BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, AUGL | - ‘ Aimed at Omaha the Omaha has na to make | That Hastings Tricune tional butehers’ convention Kansas City beef some. captured ought Omaha Commercial elub while in the city 1t the something wo.th Fremont Tribune really wants to do way of establi hing water routes out of that let It busy itself on one to Fremont.

ROCHESTER, N. Y., Aug. 2.—~To the Editor of The Bee.—~The raid of the pro- hibitionists upon the revision of the Pharmacopoeia will have no legal effect whatever; and the attempt to drop whisky and brandy from the lst of remedies, to be described in a future lssue of the Pharmacopoela, must be futile as it is foolish. The Pharmacopoela is not a government publication and is not by any means the sole dscriptive list of remedies employed in medicine, and can- not confine druggists. The assumption, In the telegrams stat- ing that the committee of revision had voted 2 to M, Dr. Wiley pres.dng, to drop whisky and brandy from the lst, that the act would compe drug lsts tu take out a saloon license to sell whisky and brandy, has no foundat.on nor | cogency. The action of & partisan com- mittee does not fix the list of remed.es. Medicine is free; license for the sa.e of wh.sky by druggists as a medicine de- pends upon existing federal wuu Suite enactments and not upon the Pharma- copoela. But the telegraphed assumption be- trays clearly the intent of the proh.bi- tionists who have apparently mastered the revision for the time being. For at one time the committee dropped the whole subject as unworthy of attention. Then it was reconsidered by a close majority; and exclusion was adopted after a hot debate, 26 to 24 Mr. Leonard Martin of Boston is re- ported by a Boston paper as making the following demand at a prohib.tion meet- Ing, July 11, 1916, on Soston common: “‘One of the firet things we must attachk Is the druggist's license. The alcohol | privilege must be erased from tuc Pharmacopoefa.” Mr. Martin decelves himseif. The Pharmacopoela rauts no 1ights nor privileges. The principal guide of the druggist is the Dispensatory, a list of rem: s quite independent of the Pharmacopoela. In- deed, the editurs of the Dispensatory in times past have stated their retusal to follow the radical action of the comm:t- tee in charge of the Pharmacopoeia. It is Imposs.ble to rule out the usc of valu able remedies, whisky and brandy, by an arbitrary list. HENKY C. MAINL, Bradetreet’s Snoopers.

This plan would save much worry, both for the spies and for (he victins to be X- rayed. JENNY WREN. TIPS ON HOME TOPICS.
