The biggest spring opening of the season will be the reopening of the Panama canal for business next month. The country will be content with any agree- ment with General Carranza which muzzies his manifesto department. The old saying, “A good Injun is & dead Injun” may have to be paraphrased, “A good Mexican is a dead Mexican." It is cheering to know that Colonel Bryan's confidence in prohibition is just as strong and unalterable as his faith in 16 to 1. Smp— Still, there is nothing in the rules and reg- ulations to prevent jitney owners from keeping their machines cleaner and more presentable. Eietetn— It there is any system of destruction which has not been given a tryout in Hurope, the in- ventor should lose no time in addressing the killers. A SRt — What a providential stroke that Colonel "Maher tinds plenty right at home for his type- writer battery to do without mobilizing on the faithlessness is exposed. Behold “Bob” ein ‘the bag of fee-graft gold whose » he could not resist. ‘Both wings of the democratic belligerents re at thelr volce-tops that they are bet- 1 of Wilson than the other fellows. ,- they do‘all protest too much, Bringing military censorship home to corre- on the Mexican border combine: ps and humor rising steadily to a’ scream.

Now is the ac- cepted time to sult action to words, —— Secretary Redfield’s plea for the conserva- tion of rage as a means of hoading oft a paper famine, opens up a source of profit for the thrifty, Moreover, the practice of chewing rags is unwholesome and grossly wasteful. Thirty Years Ago This Day in Omaha Compfled from Bee PFiles. Probably the most appreciative audience ever as- sembled together at Omaha greeted Mary Anderson at the Boyd, where she portrayed the character of Galatea. There can be nothing more pure, chaste and cold than Miss Anderson’s personification of Pygma- lion's statue and as Pygmalion Mr. Forbes Robert- #on received well merited applause. To give full meas- ure, the audience had an after-piece presented called “Comedy and Tragedy.” The preliminary meeting for the June Musical fes- tival was held at Meyer's music hall with the fol. Jowing in attendance: Miss Claire Rustin, Mre. J. T, Olarke, Mrs, Fred Nye, Miss Julia E. Officer, Mrs. H. D, Estabrook, Miss Fannle Arnold, Mrs. B P. Peck, Mrs. F. W. Gray and Messrs. O. E. Burmester, J. Northrup, Adolph Meye, W. B, Wilkins, E. M. Bart- Jett, ¥. 8. Smith, Julius Meyer, T. J. Pennell, O. D Dorman and C. F.

Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg, appar- ently, is not immediately to retire from the first seat in the German imperial cabinet. On the oontrary, he has again shown his fitness for the important place he holds by cleverly circumventing the politiciang who have opposed Lis policy, and is yet firm in his seat, with the reins of the government well in hand. For many months before the war, von Bethmann- Hollweg was assalled by opponents of the policy outlined by the emperor and put into cporation by the cabinet. Since activities in the field have been under way, this opposition has been strengthened by the addition of an- other element, made up of those who do not endorse what they term the extreme mildness of the chancellor in dealing with the political and economio situation, The retirement of von Tirpitz was a distinet shock to this faction, and brought a show of ectivity that for a moment seemed serious enough to actnally threaten the continuity of the cabinet. These extremists were joined by tlio ultras on the other end, and a union of fac- tions that might have been disastrous for the ministry seemed possible. But the incongruity of these interests operated to prevent a coall- tion sufficiently firm to establish the expected ruvolt, and the chancellor, by the simple ex- pedient of avolding an interpellation and per- mitting the introduction of a resolution, has avoided open discussion in the Reichstag of queéstions that would certainly produce inter nal disturbance in the empire. He will con timue to direct his government between the ex- tremes of peace and war, and thug adds to hie 1eputation as a master of statecraft, Germany has been fortunate in having a man of von Bethmann-Hollweg's ability in this all-important position during the critieal period of the war. His real trial is to come, when the terms of peace are to be fixed, but his manage- ment of the war promises well for his ability to secure German interests in any negotiation. — Back to the Starting Point. After a bewlldering succession of proposale and counter-proposals, the city commissioners have turned down all street lighting proposi- tions, and are back where they started. The real trouble, as we see it, is that the city authorities do not know what they want to do, or whether they want to do anything at all in the matter of street illumination. Assuming some Improvement of present conditions is desired, we renew our suggestion, made some time ago, that the proper proceed- ing for the city is to formulate its own proposi- tion and Invite the lighting company, or com- panies, to fix a price, or say “Yes” or “No.” A proposition so formulated, regardiess of both the pleasure of the lighting company and the ambitions of the Water Board management, a* least, could and should provide against com- plicating the existing situation and avold bind- lug the city to any obligation that would inter- tere with eventually supplylng its own light from a municipal lighting plant. e —— .~ . Clash of the Colonels. Lincoln has just undergone a collision of colonels that makes the thirty-day bombard- ment at Verdun seem tame in comparison. Two doughty warriors, one & master of the deadly typewriter, the other unequalled in use of verbal missiles, met in furious onslaught, and the result is too ghastly to contemplate. Colonel Maher showed the courage of his clan by entering a trial In which he was clearly overmatched and at a disadvantage because of being deprived of his favorite weapon. He is entitled, however, to something in the way of laurels for having engaged Colonel Bryan with toe naked mouth; and ce: y did acquit him- self well for one who is actustomed to pour blistering volleys from a high-geared self-start- ing typewriter. Colonel Bryan, more at ease be- cuuse of his great familiarity with the strategy of the jaw-bone, emerged with flying colors from the encounter, while Colonel Maher is re- perted to have ceased firing only because he had exhausted his ammunition, The battle is rot erded, although It is not at all likely these eminent democrats will again engage at such close quarters. Surprise attacks are not leadere In their strategy. They will be heard from in the long range warfare that is now under way, and the auspiclous opening of the democratic primary campaign certainly does promise much that will be of Interest before the vote ia taken. ———— Duty of Railroad Man Defined. From the supreme court of the United States has just come a decision that more clearly than ever defines the duty of railroad men. A flagman had been killed as a result of a rear-end collision which might have been averted, had he attended to his duty. In hold- ing that his estate is not emtitled to recover damages from the railroad, the supreme ocourt lays down a rule that will affect all railroad men, and especially those engaged in train movements. It is held that in the performance ot their duties, they are responsible to the ut- most for the safety of passengers and property entrusted to their care. If mishap follows as & result of failure, the negligent employe can not claim for himself compensation for an in- Jury he may suffer. This {s not entirely a re- vival of the defense of contributory negligence, but 1s a more strict interpretation of the rule of duty, more clearly defining the responsibil- ity of railrond men, Its importance will be clearly understood by them, and its application will wean still greater safety in travel, Two thousand ships, aggregating 1,000,000 tons, have been swept from the seas since the war began. Probably an equal tonnage has been diverted from commerce to naval and military operations. The two combined con- stitute a tremendous decrease in seagoing and fully explains the embargo on ex- ports at shipping ports. —— It is not in Nebraska only that republicans regard Justice Hughes as the one man above all others to unite the party. It is the same ali over the country, but Nebraska is the only state where the preferential ballot is open wide to let the voter write in his real choice and make It effective. A OMAHA, WED AY, MARCH 22 1916. Political Straws. Frisnd Semtinel: The more Justice Hughes protests that be doss not desire to become & candidate for the office of president of these I'nited States the more Nebraska republicans desire him to fill that most im- portant office. We do not take it that Justice Hughes' name will be printed on the primary tickets in this state, but there will be a blank line left among the list of presidential capdidates and every voter who prefers Justice Fughes should write Charles B Hughes on that line and place an X In the square opposite the name. This would bring Judge Hughes before the convention in June just as prominently as though his name was printed on the primary bal- lots. When Justice Hughes ascertains that the re- publicans of these United States desire him for that position he is patriotlo enough to accept the posl- tion. He Is the one man among all the candidates proposed who oan be elected next fail Boston Transeript: The result in New Hampshire will probably be duplicated In every one of the New England states. Two of the delegates today favo~ the nomination of Mr. Weeks and Intend to vote for him on the first ballot. The six other delegates are uncommitted and several of them are personal friends of Mr. McCall. Seven of the delegates are sald to be ready to join a stampede for Hughes if the sentiment for his nomination in the west is reflected in the delegates who are elected to represent that section at Chicago. New England republicans as & whole are much more concerned about the triumph of the cause than they are about the success of any individual candidate. They hope to see Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Root campaigning the country together in support of the ticket if Mr. Hughes is nominated Alblon News: It seems that all factions of the re- publican party are pretty generally satistied to take Judge Hughes as a candidate for president. This is a groat compiiment to this gentleman in view of the radical differences existing in regard to many policies of government, Williams, Republican National Committee- man From Oregon, in Chicago Tribune: If Hughes would say he would accept I believe he would be nominated almost unanimously. He may be nomi- nated whether he says the word or not. If noml- nated he will be elected with a record vote. Ralph B. Bloomington Advocate: anthusiastio support The Omaha Bee, who 1s an of Judge Hughes for preeident, is advising the voters to write his name on the pri- mary ballot. This is all right, but not much will come trom it because so few peaple will take time to write in the name when they to vote. A good many Hughes' supporters In this state have taken the gentleman to mean what he says when he intimated that he was not a candidate. We believe, however, that the able judge would come nearer satisfying all factions in the party than anyone that can oe selected. f Burton J. Hendrick in Minneapolis Journal: Hughes possesses two great advantages. Nearly all the party leaders have already announced thelr readi: ness to support him. More important is the steadily growing popular movement for Hughes. Justice Hughes meets every test of political availabliity. But the discussion ends, as It began, with the query: Will he take the nomination? Hughes and Wilson—that certainly would be » treat for our somewhat jaded political appetites. 1t would be a purely moral and intellectual contest. There would be no personal maul- ings, such as we'have sometimes had. The contest, with thoss two men as candidates, wouid reach a helght of dignity and decency without parallel in presidential campaigns, Twice Told Tales A Narrow Esoap¥. It was the woman's first visit to the cinemato- graph. For a long time she gaszed in silent awe at the wonders of the screen, where all sorts of impossi- ble things toook place. She could hardly believe the evidence of her own eyes. These things were real—they were actually hap- pening. She stared with goggling eyes as miracle sucoceeded miracle. Then a motor car appeared on the screen, coming into sight In the distance, and racing along a country road at about a mile a minute stralght out of the pic- ture at the audience, Catastrophe seemed Inevitable, and she shrank back in her seat. Then, just at the critical moment, it awerved aside and dashed out of sight. The old woman rose firmiy to her feet, ignoring the protests of those behind her, ‘‘Come along, Annie,” she said to her youthful niece; “it ain't safe here. That thing only missed me by n —London Answers. Higher Than Supreme Law. “Father, who owns these parks?" asked & boy while out for a walk. "‘We do, my son." replied the boy's parent; ‘‘we, the people. As a part of the people, James, we have & right to consider ourselves the owners. It is a glori- Ous feature of our form of government, my boy,” he continued, his eyes kindling, “‘that the people are ab- solute. All property rights are based on their consent, All titles thus come from them, and finally revert to them. The will of the people is the supreme law." “Hello, there!" shouted a harsh, imperious voice, “get off that grass, will yer, or I'll run yer tn!" It was the volce of the park policeman.—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. People and Events A Minneapolis woman broke into the recruiting office with a request for enlistment as an army cook. She didn't get her name on the rolls, but carried away one of the celebrated compliments recruiting officers hand to heroines. Spurred by the high cost of high living a sporting gonius has devised a golfing stick which will do all the business of the present outfit and dispense with the bag and the caddy. This ia getting back to first principles—to the pleblan shinny. Going to sleep on the surface and waking up in a hole twenty feet below was the experience of resi- dents on a street In Avooa, Pa, last month. The props of & mining shaft gave way and every house on the block dropped in. Nothing worse than the wreck. age and the scare happened. On St. Patrick's day the town of Staatsburg, N. Y., held a grand celebration, parade and serenade in honor of the oldest inhabitant, Tim Herrick, aged 80, who returned to town with a bride of 8. Herrick's six children all married, and their children, lent @ touch of picturesque domesticity to the welcome parade. Colonel “Alfalfa Bill" Murray of Oklahoma broke inta the conversation in congress, vecently, and in- dicated where the government may obtain officers for A commanding and fighting combination the sooner state hopes to emulate by imperting the corn. Marie Flanigan of Milwaukee sized up Francls Netzhammer as a likely leap-year prospect and in- vested $4.50 as s feeler, providing theater tickets, ice cream and things. Netshammer took the courtesies all right, but absolutely refused to march down the middle aisle to slow music. Unhappy, mittened Marie is suing In another court to get her money back, A Britisher named Riley, who holds & seat in the Liverpool city council, recently uncorked a phial of Hibernian sarcasm in picturing the absurdity of meat inspectors, going about the tasks in butcher shops and abbatoirs wearing the imposing symbol of British power and dignity, the plug hat. Hibernicisms didn't touch the honorable members. Riley's vote was the only one recorded aguinst the “‘topper.” | | The Dees effer, Bird House Arehitecture, OMAHA, March @.—Fo the Rditor of The Bee: 1, with many others of your readers, enjoyed the Sunday exhibit of bird houses In your paper, showing the work done in that line by our bovs In oup manusl training and other schools. An exhibit of this kind in the papess in the spriug is timely and woll-advised, as it not only shows what (s In the minds of the boys and what they are doing, but it aiso brings to the minds of others the fact that summer Is made more gladsome by the presence of feathered songsters around ous doors. That others are thinkiag along like lines s evidenced by the assnouncement of an exhibit of those bird houses next Phursday and Friday, in which it stated that a large number of people have tried to buy some of the houses, Falllng te do 80, they have even threatened to steal them, but Commissloner Humme] says that he will have a policeman at every deor to see that none of the bird houses slip away with the visitors, ‘We therefore know that we cannet buy, beg, borrow or steal a bird house. That belng the case, as many citisens whe would like bird heuses have not had the advaatages of eur madual training schoels, why would it not be an excellent plan for The Bee te have an educatory shoteh in an early issue, giving general descriptions on the malking of bird houses, pasticularly showing the size of the heis necessary for each of the dif- fevant kinds of birds with which we have te deal, and ehowing just hew far thet hole should he frem the bottom, eto.: thep with this knewlsdge many citizens eould make bird houses of thelr own This The Bee would add to the long lst of good weriis it has already done. M, J, STIRLING, 100 Bouth Twenty-fifth avenue. Gails for & Ohange, OMAKA, March #.-Fo the Editor of The Bes: As en evidemnes that the pri- masy system of meminaling candidates fos offies is a fapse and that it does not benefil the genesal publis in giving them & chanee for an inteiligent ehoice of can- didates for office, just ta'’s ¢ look over the Jisg of more than 20 w 'n who have flled jy Beouglas eeunty aready, hesides the judiciai eandidates who wili be added yot tq the alveady 100 long list, Fhe primasy system has not improved the slass of candidates in the least and pbaoxioug pandidates are much movre apt to be neominated uader the primary sys- tern than under the old convention sys- tem, Two yeass ago men were voted for and nominated for office who were dead drunk a: the time of the primaries and it is apt te be that way as long as the primary systam Is used, The members of the election boards will have a huge task before them om April 18, for in addition te more than 200 Doug- las county candidates, there is a long list of national deicgates, electors, state of- ficers and others that will make the lst at least 80 for us te seunt, and I think it will be more tham that aumbes. When the legisiature was in session last #eur | sugwested that election boards be eniasged somowhat by adding to the number a subdivision of the election board whe weuid ge en duty at noon of election day as a counting, or returning beard, so that they ceuld be ceunting while the ballets are being east. In that way it weuld make the werk of the election bhoards much shorter and would add te the accuracy of the canvass and count. With the tremendous list of names to count April 18 it is doubtful if any of the election boards will get through before noen of April 19, even by counting all night and all of Wednesday forenoon. It we are still to be burdened with the obnoxious primary system which fails to improve with age, it 1s to be hoped that the next legialature will have a returning board added to the election board so that the count cam be finished in a reasonable time, When there are so many candidates te be voted on, the polis ought to close at 6 o'clock in the evening, instead of § o'clock., Rvery voter would have ample time to cast his ballot if the polls opened at 8 in the morning and closed at 6 in the evening, The law gives every work- ingman a chance te go and vote without losing time or pay, and for that reasonm there is no neeessity of having the polls open 80 long in the evening, In the past the legislature has bungled up the election laws werse each time it meets, It is to be heped that some effi- clent men will be sent down thers this year who will make them more reason- able and not se bunglesome, The pri- mary system drives geed mem out, from the fact that they de not feel able te go to the time and expense of twe cam- palgns. If a man expects to be honest n politics, he 1s apt to spend a good deal more money than he will get out of 1t. FRANK A, AGNEW.
