JANUARY 19, 1916 Does Nebraska Bar Progress? Progressive people of this progressive com- monwealth will surely be pained to learn that Nebraska, along with a dozen others, has been listed as one of the ‘states which bar progress.” This latest ignominy {s heaped upon Nebraska by ‘“‘Bquity,” the special organ of | the direct government methods, which finds | this “‘absurd bar to progress” in the fact that a | constitutional amendment submitted to the ! voters is decided not by a majority of those those voting on the entirely different proposition as to who shall be elected to some public office. | “Equity” kindly notes the exception for us that | tris does not hold good on amendments by popular initiative, for here simple majorities rule, and there being no limitation on resort to the initiative, what difference it makes that leg- | islature-submitted amendments still require a full majority of the total votes Is not clear. But, as a matter of fact, Nebraska has progressed farther than any other state {n mak- ing it easy to change our constitution. Does [ not “Equity” know that by legislative jugslery and judicial interpretation we have made it so that all straight ballots marked in the party cirele are counted ‘“yes" for amendments en- dorsed by nominal majorities in the party prinfary although cast without the slightest in- tention of voting on any amendment at all? If ease of constitution-changing s the test of progress, then Nebraska Is not only maligned when listed among the ‘‘states that bar prog- ress,” but we are entitled to first award for a progressiveness which no other state in the union can match, For ourselves, we confess we would rather have the progress of our state determined by | some different measuring rod, and we submit that any fair measurement of progress will rank Nebraska near the head of the column in the sisterhood of states. - Blockade of Neutral Ports. | Great Dritain now proposes the formal ex- tension of its “‘order in council” to include an effective blockade of neutral ports, as well as the declaration of a war zone witain which vessels of all nations are subjected to the treatment ac- corded blockade runners. In plain terms, the purpose is to stop, if possible, all trading be- tween neutral countries and Germany. Unde: the newer conditions, Great Britain would be- come in fact the dictator of the high seas and the director of the world's commerce. The Quadruple Entente allies have been carefully sounded on the proposition, and France and THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, Italy hesitate over engaging in the enterprise. The practice of the United States during the Civil war is relled upon by Great Britain to support its suggestion. This practice may af- ford a pretext, but hardly a precedent. Eng- land had openly and flagrantly espoused the cause of the Confederacy, and was almost ar ally of the rebels. The blockade of the ports of Nassau and Matamoras was necessary, be- cause they were admittedly depots for military supplies for the rebels in arms against the United States. No such conditions exist today, Against this proposition from Great Britain may be placed the recent disclosures of the London Daily Mall, which made a thorough investiga tion, and reports that shipment of foodstutfs and other supplies from British to Scandinavian ports far exceed the normal requirements of the destination countries, and which openly charges that the surplus of these shipments finds its way into Germany. John Bull has plenty to do at home for a time before he entirely assumes charge of the | world’s affairs. ! Submersible Milk Wagons, “Things come to him who waits,” or words to that effect, echoed through the state fire marshal's office as the belated pay checks blew in. Which also shows the value of starting a ~ fire in the rear and sitting tight. .The official report of the New York state census showing a decrease in the number of resident Indians tallies with known conditions. Lack of proper nourishment for more than a year has decimated the tribe of Tammany. ———— Knowledge combines power and profits on the farm as in all human vocations. The higher the intelligence applied to seed selection, culti- vation and crop rotation, the greater the re- sults, Prof. Holden's exposition of intensive farming merely brushes the dust from truths as old as creation. : — The official announcement that American citizens who emigrated to Canada are not shirk- ing their duty is welcome evidence of the right spirit. Wherever a man makes his home, to that country allegiance is due and whatever sacrifice time and occasion call for. The First Congregational church has bid farewell to the old building and will temporarily occupy the skating rink, while the new $60,000 edifice is erected on the site of the old. The church membership at Present is 33, after two others, St. Mary's Avenue and the Third Congregational, have been formed from the parent church. Frank Colpetzer, chairman of the managing com- mittee of the charity ball, accompanied by John 8. Collins, in the course of a few hours, procured over 81,000 In subscriptions from business men and expects 10 boost the total to $3,000. Mr. Colpetser figures that 1000 tickets to the ball at % each will be sold in advance as compzred with a sale of 200 tickets last year. The third national convention of the Nebraska Civil Engineers, is in session. The Omaha members attending are: George W. Tillson, A. J. Grover, George Smith, C. H. Howes and Andrew Rosewater.

Of course it can, and with the coming of the sub- mersible milk wagon, maybe we'll hear the last of the farmer who forgot to roof his cows, or the milkman who forded the creek on the way | to town. But what of Neptune and his dolphin team? Will they patiently abide this newest invasion of the water god's realm? All sorts of indignities have been visited on the denizens of Aimed at Omaha York Democrat: Attorney General Reed's intima- tlon that the 8 o'clock closing law Is violated in Omaha comes as a stunning surprise. It leads us to belleve that the anti-cigaret law is violated hers in York, that every now and then some one violates the law against burglary, and that every now and then some public official may actually devots to private practice the time that belongs to the public, Doud City Press: Omaha is to have a real hay market, a system of trackage for hay, official in- spection and grading, official record of sales, etc. Because of lack of such a market, little hay has been sold directly in Omaha. Hundreds of thousands of tons of hay have been shipped right through Omaha to Chicago or Kansas City. The Union Stook Yards company of Omaha has been buying much of its hay on the Kansas City market, thus paying frelght for the haul from Omaha to Kansas City and back Blair Democrat: An Omaha woman is paying her husband alimony, but that is no reason for some fel- lows saying “yes” when a girl asks, “Will vou be mine?" or words to that effect. Albion Argus: Mayor Charles Bryan relsased ten | inmates of the Lincoln city jail from durance vile in honor of Christmas day. In this he emulated the example of Mayor Jim of Omaha, who lets out scads of jall convicts who have been convicted of misde- meanors. Neither mayor can pardon convicted crim- inals, but may forgive those condemned of close communion with John Barleycorn Hastings Tribune: An Omaha woman is said to the lockjaw. We don't belleve it. Whoever heard of an Omabha woman who could not talk con- tinuously? York Republican: Omaha people seem to find the occupation of holding each other up after night quite profitable. If an outsider refuses to play the game they shoot him, Newman Grove Reporter: The Omaha Bee has discovered the meanest man on earth. His wife needed a set of teeth and had no money to buy them. An Omaha dentist was going to give her a set for a Christmas present, but her husband arose In his might and refused to allow her to accept them. Some onme ought to pull all of that fellow's teeth and then make him live on rubber boot heels for the balance of his life. Beatrice’ Express: The Nebraska Bar assoclation, now in session in Omaha, refused to go on record on the question of state-wide prohibition, ruling out a resolution dealing with the matter as being wholly “lending, immaterial, irregular and having nothing to do with the case at issue.”” No exception was taken to this rullng by any of the attorneys present. Twice Told Tales Happened in Boston. Every seat in the electric car was occupied, when & group of women got In, Going through the car to collect the fares, the con- ductor noticed & man asleep. Selzing him by the shoulder he proceeded to shake him back iInto a state of consciousness. ““Wake up!" shouted the conductor. “That is where you may have another guess, my boy," wakefully responded the passenger. “I was not asleep.” “‘Not asleep, eh?* returned the conductor, with a dublous expression. ‘““Then, what were you doing with your eyes shut?"’ “It was because of the crowded condition of the car,” explained the passenger. “I just hate to ees women standing up."’~—Boston Herald. He Was Some Sick. George Sidney, the actor, tells a story, for which he confesses a particular fondness, on one of the players of his company in his Blszy lszy days. “My friend was hopelessly addicted to his cup says Mr. Sidney, “and nothing that we could say to him ever seemed to reform him much. But some. times we could get him on the wagon for a couple of months, till temptation came too strong, and he'd g0 back to his sins with a terrible bump. “‘Once we had him sober for four or five months, #0 that whem he went on his spree it hit him a lot harder than usual. He disappeared just after the performance, and when T came iInto the theater the next day he was lying across the floor of my dreasing room, He was moaning and groaning, and for a minute or two I thought I'd have to send for a doctor. “I lifted him up, however, and carried him In. sid ‘You're feeling pretty sick, old man, aren't you? T sald, sympathetically. ' ‘Sick, George? Sick? Why, thousands have died who were not as sick as I am now.’ "—Indlanapolis News. Puszsied the Teacher. They were speaking about the importance of punctuation the other afterncon when an appropriate story was told by Miss Theda Bara, the motion-plcture star. Some time since the teacher in a public school told the puplis to write a sentence on any subject and lay the deep, but they have not yet been subjected to the inconvenience so patiently borne by land- lubbers, that of the matutinal visitation.of the milkman. What will the Nereids and theé Oceanids say, when their games are interrupted by the whizzing past of the submarine milk- cart? Their comfort must be considered, for they are venerable, and entitled to a little respect, although, to be sure, they should nof be permitted to entirely block the way of prog- ress. Let us have the undersea milk route at once, but let it be so maintained as to only moderately interfere with established customs at sea and below the surface thereof until the gods and the nymphs, the mermaids and the sirens have time to adjust themselves to new conditions. Holden's Advice on Corn. Prof. P. G. Holden recounted in Omaha the result of a test of the value of selecting seed corn, carried on so extensively as to thoroughly establish the service of the practice. From » field of 8,000 acres an increase of eleven bush- els per acre was secured, the only change in methods being the thorough test of the seed be- fore planting. This is only a portion of the mass of accumulated proof that no farm labor is more profitable expended than in the careful selection and thorough testing of seed corn. Elaborate experiments and thorough research | has proven that corn breeds true to type every time. Farmers know this, or, at any rate, they have been given the information many times. By following the advice of the experts, the farmers have increased the average yleld by many bushels to the acre, but have not as yet reached the limit of possibilities. Every farmer is interested in this, and all should unite in ap- plying the easy test necessary to determine the germinating qualifications of the seed corn, after it has been picked because of its desirabil- ity for other reasons. This is the time of year to do this work, so that when planting time comes, the seed that goes inte the ground will be known to be dependable. the papers on her desk. The first that the teacher took up for conmsideration was that of little Willie Jones. ““This is & warm doughnut. Step on it.,” read the teacher from the paper, with a pussled expression. “‘What in the world are—'" ““That ain't right, Miss Mary,” hastily interrupted Willle. *‘You didn't read—"" ““Well, then,” sald the teacher, handing him the pa- per, “‘suppose you read it." “Yes, ma'am,” humbly acquiesced Willle. *This is a worm.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb, Jan. 18.-To the Editor of The Bee: May I not in the columns of your paper express my hearty uppreciation of the sublime and lofty thoughts of Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Just as Shakespeare read the thoughts and passions of men for all ages and covered every shade of life, from the depth of despair, the lurking nature of revenge, the allurement of ambition, the agony of remorse, and the gloom of doubt, so that we behold life as it 1s. A fitful fever, a slough of despondency wherein no one knows whom to trust. 8o, on the other hand, this gifted woman has penetrated the religious hopes and desires of humanity and has condensed them into a creed where those who trust in it have at least a faith of perfect peace. Undoubtedly the storms of con- troversy, in which 8o many others are tossed about, they can welcome all men as brothers in falth, for all of them, even the most hostile, contribute to sup- ply the stones of the broad foundation upon which their philosophy is buflt. Sclentific discoveries and philosophic inquiries touch not this religion. It is built upon the laws of nature; evil and good bring their rewards respectively, but, thank the Lord, the idea of either eternal pain or eternal happiness {a ab- sent. ‘“Heaven must begin here on earth and we must save ourselves by | thoughts and acts of love.” Ta this not reasonable? The efforts of those who have been postponing their state of heaven or harmony to another world should be to strengthen the bonds of friendship on earth, to widen the range of human sympathy, to seek that love in one another which they have hitherto been required to seek in otber future worlds. Best of all, as one reflects on these thoughts, the world takes on a different aspect. He sees the thief who did not openly repent and he wonders at his fate at the hands of one who prayed for forgiveness. He sees those less fortunate than he, those brought up in homes of squalor and fiith, and he says that they, too, are embraced in the divine law of love. Mrs. Wilcox's faith in immortality is a bulwark of protec- tion. It tells those who think to escape from their wretched condition (often thoughts) by entering another world, that it 1s not to be. The grave will not destroy personality and it must be made here or ther On the other hand, those who have really belleved, kingdom of heaven is within us, thought of the grave has no terror. Like a child. weary at the close of day, will he go to sleep in the bosom of the all- cheering mother earth. “For the dis- appearance of a single life {s but a ripple on the ocean of humanity and humanity feels it not,” but the mind, his person- ality, will live. He meets his doom calmly then, bowing to the verdict of fate or nature with unwavering resigna- tion and fearless calm. CLARENCE W. KHLSO.
