This wHl be one of the most impor- tunt of these early winter conclaves, because of l the vast interests involved in the question, Agri- culture has developed in the United States within a few years at a rate that has exceeded even the | most optimistic of prophecies, New methods and the improvement of old. the adaptation of high grade machinery and power plants to the farmers’ uses, and simflar innovations, have brought about such changes as have served to emphasize the need for hetter methods of finanecing the industry. The farmer makes the complaint common to | all, that he must pay too much for the use of the money he borrows, asserting he provides better security and pays higher Interest than any other branch of industry. The problem is how to rem- | edy this condition, and make sure of the facile | operation of dependable means for floancing | the steadily growing operations of agriculture, This ean not be done on hard and fast lines, be- cause of the diversity of the factors that must be considered, but a general plan may be outlined, | from which a serviceable system can later be worked out The present conference at Chicago has op- | portunity to be of real service to the farmer. The only danger it faces is that a general issue may become beclouded by special complaints. Meeting of the Kaisers The visit of Emperor Wilhelm to Emperor | Franz Josef is an interesting episode, specially noteworthy just at this time. While, perhaps, fraught with little of far-reaching importance, it has sentimental value of immense weight, and as such will be regarded by students of the | war's progress. Primarily, it ought to be suf- | ficient answer to reports that one of the central | | powers is seeking separate peace with the en- tente allies. The strength of the Teutonic al- liance has for its foundation the absolute under- standing between the two emperors and their | complete agreement on points of policy. From this unanimity of relation has proceeded the harmony in the conduet of joint campaigns, which has been such a factor in the success al- | ready obtained. The Germanic peoples are still united, and the visit of the German Falser to the Austrian kaiser is proof of thii Does Suppression Suppress ! Paterson has had an: unique experience among American cities, in that it bas been the | headguarters for an active group of anarchists for many years, Somehow, anarchy and the gilk industry seem to go hand in hand in Amé&rica, It Is not so in other gountries, and ought not to be s0 in this. But Paterson is the center of the great sllk industry of the United States, and is also the center for the . W, W. and its kindred organizations. Just now the city s trying to suppress one of the leading spirits of this irre- sponsible band of reckless agitators by prosecut- ing Miss Klisabeth Flynn, under a revived indiot- ment charging her with inciting to riot, Miss Flynn happens to be a native-born ofti- zen, and without doubt is entitied to full privi- leges in the matter of free speech. The ques- tion is of the sufficlendy of the proceedings against her. It may be recalled that about thirty yoars ago a band of similar agitators stirred Chicago to the Haymarket bomb epigode and the subsequent hanging of Parsons and others, and the later pardon of three of their associates by Governor Altgeld. The lesson of that affair ought to be supplied by Paterson, Suppression under the circumstances is likely to become op- pression, and fail of its purpose, Before Elizabeth Flynn is banished from the silk city, because of her unbridled speech, some- thing should be done to determine if her charges have foundation, and it they have, to remove the cause. Industrial peace can not be established on suppression of free apeech. But, Of Course, It's Different. Here is an item which we take from the cur- rent issue of Collier's Weekly, in which it {s cap- tioned, “Weeding Their Own Patch.” We note that on a fair day in November the jus- tices of the appellate court of New York disbarred thirteen lawyers, suspended seven from practice for one year or more, censured six, and referred charges against two others to the officlal referee. If this keeps up we'll think more of what Is left of the legal profession, and New York will be a safer place. Ot course, the reference is to New York lawyers, but recall, If you please, the outery when The Bee not so many moons ago suggested that the reputable members of the Omaha bar do a little house-cleaning on their own account. New York doubtless has more of crooked lawyers as It has other crooked folks, but also has some- thing to show for its efforts at renovation, as witness the number of disbarments and suspen- sions from practice. By the way, how long is it since a lawyer practiclog in Omaha, no matter what questionable deals he may have pulled off, has been disbarred? Flareback Over the Filipinos. The wordy clash between the secretary of war and a former president of the United States gains public attention through its lack of dig- nity, rather than because of its inherent merit. Eome degree of petulance is shown by each of the gentlemen, whose testiness on the topic gives to the'little tilt piquancy it might otherwise have Incked. The fact of the matter is, the democrats sought to discredit as far as possible the work | done by the republicans in educating the Fili- pinos and advancing them along the road to ul- | timate self-government. Unable to carry out their oft-repeated promises of immediate inde- pendence for the Philippines, the demoerats sub- stituted the removal of competent American ad- ministrative officers, to make room for Filipino politiclans. A similar policy was pursued as far as possible in this country. The natural.result was confusion and deterioration in the publie service of the islands. This Is not the only point on which the demo- cratic administration has failed, nor is it the one on which the disapproval of the public will even- tually rest. Diversion occasioned by the present | outburst will not serve to detract attention from | the manifold shortcomings of the party in power, Serm——— The law of Nebragka regulating autoniobile driving requires a full stop wherever street cars are taking on or discharging passengers, the l stop to continue until the car starts again.
