Morrow, through your columns, it they fully realize that the demands for terminal Improve ments have exceeded the revenues of the steam rail- roads the last few years, and also to ask influence they have used to increase and protect the reve # of the same. You have published the other side in The Sunday Bee; please publish thi G M. VANDERCOOK, Condullor, forty-three yeags In the service Of course we will publish this, Why shouldn’t We ‘expeet railroad employes, whether active or pensioned, to be loyal to the com- pany, but we do not see why they should feel it incumbent upon themselves to oppose the demand for a new Unfon depot for Omaha. The managers of the rallroads centering here realize, whether the trainmen do or not, that them what they depend upon Omaha for a great deal of | thelr business and we have no doubt the busi- ness interests ‘of this eity contribute to the revenues vastly more than the city takes out. That, however, Is not the question, for the earn- ings everywhere are on the upgrade, and the railroad financial exhibit is better right now than it has been for years If the roads have made unwise investments in needlessly expensive terminals in other cit- fes, their folly should not be at the expense of Omaha. The Union Pacific, so far as we know, has not indulged in any depot extravagance anywhere, and least of all here, where its ter- minal property, through the magn‘ficent rent- als from other roads, is an income producer, and not a drain. Spokesmen for the roads will, thercfore, have to find a better reason for with- standing Omaha's demand for a new Union depot than has yet been advanced for them, Carranza’s Incompetence Exposed. The absolute Inefficlency of the ‘‘first chief” and head of the de facto Mexican gov- ernment is made clear by recent events in his dealings with the United States. His weakness and incapacity made possible the Villa raid, the reported Herrera desertion, and all the list of vexatious events now transpiring. Vigorous prosecution of a purposeful campaign, after re- celving the recognition of the American gov- ernment, and its powerful assistance, would have removed long before this the menace of the rebelllous bands in Mexico. Carranza fs too thoroughly fmbued with the Mexican doc- trine of “manana” energetically to undertake anything more emphatie than the issuance of pronunclamentos, at which he excels. Instead of aiding in restoring order in his country by cheerfully co-operating in a move- ment that will be of greater advantage to him- self than to anyone else, Carranza has held back, trying to imitate a statesman, and only succeeding in playing politics, thus completely exposing his incapacity for the real affairs of government, His present prominence is due to President Wilson's intrigue and secret med- dling in the affairs of Mexico, while openly professing to be disinterested, a course that has involved our own government in a way that promises to become decidedly embarrassing. The Mexican muddle is now more serious than ever, because of the incompetence of Car- ranza and the maladroit proceedings of our president. “Watchful walting” and petty in- terference are bearing their natural fruits. S ———————— “Out of the Mouths of Babes.” The Adams county superintendent of schools objects to a list of questions sent out by the state superintendent, to be used in the examin- atlon of elghth grade ‘pupils in the publie schools, because the questions are beyond the mental capaeity of the pupll The objection will be sustalned by all who give the matter any thought. The questions aré certainly beyond the mental scope of the average elghth grade pupll, are not within the range of school room experience, have very little to do with the daily life of the child, and would pusile most adults to intelligently answer some. How many grownups can off-hand give a lucld definition of the spolls system in politics, or clearly ex- plain the effect of telephones and free delivery of malls on rural life in America? These ques- tions call for conclusions, and presume a fund of information the chiid is hardly likely to The ressonable purpose of examination at school 18 to enable the teacher to ascertaln to what exent the pupil's mind has expanded under the training in the class room. This is de- termined by the amount of imparted knowledge retained and co-ordinated, Therefore examina- tions should be made within the range of ex- perience, and should not be such as will deter advance by discouraging effort. Wisdom may still proceed from the mouths of babes, but not detalled information on subjects beyond their ken. — Prisoners and Patriotism. * An interesting state of affairs is revealed in tte Jowa reformatory at Anamosa; “reforma- tory” being a Hawkeye euphemism for peniten- tiary or state’s prison. Many of the prisoners there are eager to enlist and fight the Mexi- cans, The attitude is very becoming to the men, who are temporarily sequestrated because of some momentary lapse from self-control that brought them into contact with the law, and it will doubtless be very gratifying to the soclal uplifters to note this ebullition of patriotic im- pulse among the prisoners. But it will not especially interest Uncle Sam, for he wants only men of clean records for his fighting It is the belief of those who best know that the uniform of the United States is an unequivocal guaranty of the character of the wearer, and neither the army or the navy is a reformatory. A man who is not amenable to {he laws that govern in civil life could not long withstand the discipline of military service. Prisoners may reform, and it is to be hoped they will; and they may become enthusiasts for the service of their country, but this will ‘not gain for them the liberty they have for the time forfeited by thelr own misconduct, The cynical Frenchman was nearly right when he said “Patriotism is the final refuge of a rogue.” No danger lfl( The raliroads will relinquish any part of their valuable terminal rights in Omaha unless they get something still more valuable in return, They owe this city, how- ever, adequate and modern passenger depot facilities and they have no valid excuse for not meeting the obligation. b} \ BE OMAHA, FRIDAY, Hughes in New England Boston Transeript. W ITH the national conventions at Chicago and | 8t Louis less than three months away, their nominations for the presidency appear to be as nearly foregone conclusions as any future event in the political calendar can be. The renom- Ination of Mr. Wilson by the democrats was long aAgo accepted as inevitable. The nomination of Mr Hughes by the opposition looks tocay to be hardly less a certainty. In every corner of the country the tide of popular sentiment is running strongly in his favor. A poll of public sentiment among the farmers of Maine shows the same preference for Hughes that a similar test does in southern California. A poll of | the passengers on a de luxe train between Boston and New York nets atout as many votes for Hughes | as a poll on a similar train from Chicago to San Francisco. The editors of the country in Nebraska, which circulate among non-democratic readers, are as overwhelmingly for Hughes as are the editors of newspapers of the same class in northern New York. A referendum among an organization of first voters in Oregon rolls up a majority for Hughes that is duplicated by a referendum among the busi- ness men in a mmall town in 1ilinols Only two classes of the opposition to the party in power today fail to show a preference for Hughes. newspa | One of thess 1s made up of those frenzied followers of Mr. Roosevelt who see in the increasing accept ance of his prophecy In respect to the repudiation of “watchful walting” as a national policy an oppor- tunity to use the magic of his name to repair the own political fences. The other class gains ita re- crults from the professional politicians who look to Mr. Barnes of New York and his associates in politics for thelr orders. Nelther class posseases anything in commor save thelr welfish refusal to recognize the supremacy of the common purpose for which rank and file of republicans and progressives are fighting today—to restore and secure the honor of the nation. Could they co-operate, the two classes are insufficlent in numbers to prevent the nomination of Mr, Hughes. What will New Fngland do, in the face of this country-wide landslide for Hughes? Wisely, as we believe, the delegates from the six states of this section will go to Chicago untrammelled by any instructions. Long before they arrive there, how- ever, they will find it the part of widom, we ven. ture, to declare in unmistakable terms that their first cholce for the presidency accords with the popu- Jar preference, which is everywhere manifesting itself in the form of delegates and declarations for Hughes Twice Told Tales A Baa Seare. A Southerd man tells of a darky named Theophilus Baxter, known as ““the champion banjo player of Alabama."

Springfield Republican: The announce- ment of the Union Pacific rallroad that its chalr cars and coaches are to be kept at a temperature of seventy de- grees day and night, raise again the whole question of car ventilation, which hi not been satisfactorily solved, par- ticularly in regard to sleeping cars. The Union Pacific recognizes that too high & temperature is more injurious to the health than lack of fresh air, but not seventy degrees too high for a car that is well filled with pasesngers? In the modern steel coaches the air is often noticeably bad when a train is not In motion, but the ventllation system is in other respects fairly successful. If cars were thoroughly aired out In the termi- nal yards before & train is made up, passengers might derive some benefit from the process. Fresh alr is also & good disinfectant.

Then If that is so we should be logical and change the offi-| | cial designation of the secretary of war to the secretary of peace. Psychology plays no small part in all of the affairs of our daily life, both Individually and collectively, and therefore to have the name secretary of wa: constantly before the people's eyes in reporting the govern ment activities has tha effect of convey- the people the thought of war.
