Those employers who have announced an in- tention to continue for a specified length of time the wages of any on their pay rolls who may have been called to the colors, may feel assured their motives will be variously defined. It is not likely, though, that sheer selfishness animated them all. A far better way to look at the movement is to admit that some of the soulless institutions have acually developed a spot that can be touched other than the pocketbook nerve. It would be incredible if all the welfare work developed within the last decade were solely for exhibition pur- poses. The present manifestation may well be accepted as the result of a determination of the big corporations to “do their bit” along with the boys who go to the front, and in no finer way could they do this than by making the soldier’s mind easy as to the fate of those he leaves be- hind. The action of these employers is in strong contrast to the conduct of some members of or- ganized labor, who have refused to enlist merely because the pay of a soldier is not equal to the wage scale commanded in civil life. Business Methods in City Purchases. Much improvement has been made in purchas- ing methods employed by municipal authorities, but there is always room for more improvement. This is strikingly emphasized by a paper that has just come to hand in the printed proceedings of the “City Managers’ association,” which met at Dayton last November, and which contains a discussion of “Buying for the City” by the pur- chasing agent for Dayton. Some of the exper- iences cited as examples illustrating how savings can be effected for the benefit of the taxpayer, are so directly in point that they are worth quot- ing. Here are three cases submitted to prove the value of closely watching the markets for the most favorable moment: 1. We purchased cast iran water pipe at an exceptionally low price by going into the mac- ket at the right time, when the iron market was at its lowest point and the pipe foundries wild for business to allow them to keep running. We waited three months after we knew we would need the pipe until we judged conditions were tight, After the purchase was made the market advanced several dollars a ton within two months and as we used sixty-three hundred tons, the saving on this one item was sufficient to pay expenses of our entire division for more than four years. 2. We conttacted for a year's supply of goline on August 1, at 9 cents per 'Iallon, the lowest point in the market here. The ad- vance to date has been 4 or § cents a gallon and a good pto?ect of a further advance, and as we will use 75,000 gallons, we are already $3,000 ahead. ! 3. Next nprlnfl we expect to build three bridges which will require approximately 800 tons of reinforcing steel. Instead of waitin to buy when we have completed plans an placed contracts, or letting the contractor furn- ish it at a high price, we purchased it October 1, and at today’s market for the same material, we are $2400 ahead, and with conditions as they are exiltig&)n present in the steel trade, we will be $4,000 ahead by the time we need delivery. » How Dayton successfully tackled the fire equipment and supply problem is thus described: One of our most radical departures from the usual methods in city buying was on a urchase this year of $50,000 worth of motor gre apparatus. The bids as first received were too high for the available funds—rather than refuse all bids, readvertise and' probably reach the same ruu‘t. we gave all bidders the same opportunity tq lower their bids, having the re- duction based on our placing the entire order with one firm. We felt fullg J’umfied in doing this from the fact that all bidders were given the same opportunity, that it was obviously to the advantage of the chr to' buy only one !(pe of motor, and thus great! g simplify the handling of the apparatus in the department and reduce the expense of making repairs in the city gar- age. By taking this stand we saved just 20 per cent of the cost and were able to buy some extra appafatus. On fire hose we combined the strongest points in several sets of specifications from other cities and from the Board of Fire Un- derwriters and added several tests and provi- sions which we have found by experience are of value. We have just received our last pur- chase, for which we paid approximately 45 cents Y" foot, and from laboratory tests and analysis believe it is as or better than the. hose }fle formerly bought at 85 cents and $1.00 per oot. Of course we are not drawing any odious comparisons, but simply giving the information about Dayton, as it is furnished, first hand. We leave it to folks to form their own conclusions as to the application to Omaha or any other parti- cular city. No Bank Monopoly Yet. = Although the point involved may not be set- tled short of a final ruling by the supreme court, the f¥cent decision of Judge A, J. Cornish of the distriét bench of Lancaster county against the as- sumed right of the State Banking board to refuse a charter solely on the ground that the community where it is proposed to start the new bank is al- ready sufficiently supplied with banking facilities, has a far-reaching significance.. Judge Cornish holds unequivocally that, as our Nebraska laws now stand, there can be no banking monopoly in the sense of being protected by law against com- petition of other adequately capitalized and hon- estly managed banks. On general principles, public opinion is against monopolies, whether in doing a banking business or selling automobiles, in vending money credits or grocery credits, and if the people ever ‘reach the point of acquiescifigin a bank monopoly, they will probably want it to be a state owned and state-managed bank. The fact is that even without court interference the State Banking board could not keep down a new bank, amply backed, for a national charter could be obtained, though denied a state charter, but to do so would require a cap- ital perhaps not justified by the size of the locality. What the State Banking board, however, has a right to do, and it is its duty to do, is to protect the deposit guarantee fund against dan- gers and risks, which is quite a different matter, An existing bank, or a proposed bank, that would put an extra hazard upon this insurance fund could properly be turned down or closed down, and action along this line could in no way be con- strued as a policy for building up monopoly in banking anywhere. —— Senator J. Ham Lewis thinks a navy yard would improve the scenery around Chicago and wants an investigation. A like institution would fit into the scenic arrangement of the junction of the Platte and Missouri rivers and materially re- duce the war fever in Iowa and Nebraska.

Steps in Peace-Making. Pender, Neb., July 3.—To the Editor of The Bee: Under headline, “Unofficial Media- tion Sometimes Effective,” I read in your paper in second sentence, “In all wars, un- official steps have paved the way to offi- cial acts,” etec. Would you please give names of wars and names of mediators, etc., where such has occurred, in your next issue and oblige. C. J. WEBORG. Note: In the war of the American revolu- tion, Benjamin Franklin, who was the first minister to France, and who negotiated the first treaty for the colonies with the king of France, was continuslly in communication with Dr. Priestly of London, and David Hartley, member of Parliament for Hull, and through them, in unofficial touch with the government of England. Negotiations and understandings established thus, in the end, 80 weakened Lord North that his eabinet collapsed about the time 'of the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, and Lord Rocking- ham came to power with a cabinet filled with friends of the American colonies. The unof- ficial negotiations set on foot by Franklin became the basis for the final treaty of peace. In July, 1898, a few days after the naval battle at San , wherein Admiral Cevera's fleet had been destroyed by the American fleet, Minister Cambon, representing France at Washington, tentatively approached President McKinley on the matter of peace; two weeks later Cardinal Rampolla, acting for the pope, sounded the European powers as to terms on which peace between the || United States and Spain might be secured. These steps were entirely unofficial, as were others similarly taken, but they led to an early restoration of peace. s When Japan and Russia were at grips before Mukden, Secretary Hay, for President Roosevelt, approached the belligerents, with- out official character, and opened a way that led to the treaty of Portsmouth, NEBRASKA EDITORS.

Washington Post: The movies will, in- deed, aid in recruiling,'as they are the only places where an officer can fight for three d:i:r and eome out with a perfectly clean collar.

Boston Transeript: Secretary McAdoo has & brilliant scheme for paying the extraor- dinary expenses of the government by his own private system of bookkeeping, but we fear that it won't work for him any better than it did for the late Wilkins Micawber. Baltimore American: The president of Cubs has fssued a decree forbidding the carrying of firearms. The order ia for the purpose of making the electoral campaign & safe and sane proceeding, with accompany- ing excitement calmed by merely the nat- ural weapons. Bpringfleld Republican: The alleged delu- olon of Captain Royd at Carrizal that the Mexicans “would run,” it a fight were to take place, must have suggested to many that perhaps the United States army under- fully as much as the imated the Boers in early British reverses under General Buller were due, in no small degree, to the low opinion the British regu- Jars held of the unorganized and undisci- plined Dutch farmers and cattlemen of the veldt. The Mexicans have seen a good deal of war in the last five years, and it is surely high time not to deny to any race or nat abundant physical courage. WOMEN’'S ACTIVITIES. Although “Grandma™ Anslinger is 90 years of age, she is making a “full hand" picking strawberries at the home of her son, Jacob Anslinger, north of Atchison, Kan. Mrs. Anslinger enjoys the best of health and is never more content than when at work. There are two camps in Massachusetts for the training of women for service in war. The training is similar to that of the men at Plattsburg and it is expected it will rival the Chevy Chase encampment at Washing- ton. “Americanization of Immigrant Women" was one of the subjects discuused at the recent meeting of the General Federation of Women's clubs in New York, and during the next year the subjest will be considered more fully in all the clubs of the country. German women are said. to be working twelve hours a day in the mining and smelt- ing industries. The president of the Birsch. dunker Labon unions is said to have de- clared that the work of the women is equal to that of the men, but that their wages are from 20 to 40 per cent lower.
