Threats heard in the House of Commons that Great Britain expects to make a paramount issue out of the Deutschland ordinarily would have no weight, but existing circumstances warrant giving the address of Lord Robert Cecil some considera- tion. This is not the first time since the begin- ning of the war the British cabinet has sought to influence the action of the United States on an issue raised by the war. Controversy over inter- ference with neutral traffic is already sharp, and the immediate matter of interference with mails has been brought to the attention of King George's ministry in plain terms. Should the minister of war trade, or the foreign minister, seize upon the incident of the appearance in an American harbor of a submersible merchant ves- sel as a pretext for threatening reprisals of any sort, they would show a capacity for blundering even greater than has been credited to them. His British majesty’s cabinet should keep in mind that it was the firm insistence of the United States on observance of neutral rights and inter- national law that brought the modification in the German submarine campaign. The advantage of this to British commerce need not be specified. The only possible effect of charges against the United States in connection with the Deutschland would be to alienate the moral support of a large percentage of our people, whose sympathies have been with the Entente Allies, but whose sense of justice will not permit them to accept everything proposed by the British government. Efforts to force this country into an unneutral position are unworthy of the British. Lord Grey’s reply to the note on the mail question is overdue, and patience with his dilatory course will not be improved by evasion or an attempt to revive the submarine issue. More Proof of Unreadiness. When the question of our national unreadiness for defense was seriously broached as a topic for public debate a year ago, much of consolation was derived in a secret way from the reflection that the War department knew a thing or two it did not make public. Some facts developed in con- nection with the recent mobilization of the Na- tional Guard has proven that this was true. It has also shown the reasons for the silence of the war office. It knew a lot of things it isn’t proud of, knowledge of which does not raise us in the estimation of the world. When the Nebraska soldiers were in camp at Lincoln, supplies sent from the St. Louis warehouse for their use were rejected, because the blankets, shoes and stock- ings were of an inferior quality. Over in Iowa complaint is made that second-hand uniforms were issued, torn and buttonless trousers and the like, being among the articles. Now comes a re- port from Camp Dodge that plow shoes of all the colors of the rainbow are being issued to the men under arms, in lieu of the regular army shoe. It was not alone in the matter of guns and similar arms we were short, but we can not supply cloth- ing for the hundred thousand men we have called out. What would have happened if Mr. Bryan's million had presented themselves for equipment? It is high time our War department * being overhauled and placed on a serviceable Dasis. — Tariff Commission Not on the Square. Are the democrats on the square with the tariff commission proposal incorporated in their new revenue bill? All their previous actions would indicate that they were not. If the democrats sincerely favored a tariff commission: they need not have legislated out of existence the non- partisan tariff board started under the preceding republican administration. If the old tariff board did not suit them, the democrats could easily have reconstructed it when they enacted their Under- wood tariff law. Yet, they not only did nothing of the kind, but they continued to discountenance and discredit the idea of tariff making by advice of nonpartisan experts until now, when they sud- denly reverse in the belief that they can make political capital by pretending to favor the tarifi commission plan. That it is all mere pretense we now have the proof in the boost given the new revenue measure in Mr, Bryan's Commoner over his name: “The tariff commission,” he says, “pleases a certain ele- ment and does no harm, Its tendency is to post- pone a change in rates and that is at present de- irable.” Mr. Bryan here lets the cat out of the bag for, if “it pleases a certain element and does no harm,” it is intended to do no good. Its pur- pose is, as he confesses, merely to provide arf ex- cuse for delay and to fool the people into thinking that they are to have scientific tariff revision from the democrats, No fairly informed person can be convinced that a tariff that will build up American industries in all parts of the country is attainable through a political party wholly sec- tional in its control and interests as is the south- ridden democratic party. The only way to get an effective tariff commission is by restoring the republicans to power. E— Worth While Publicity. It is the exceptional that attracts attention and it is doing something out of the ordinary that brings publicity. Witness this fragrant bou- quet thrown by Collier's Weekly at our little sis- ter city of Council Bluffs under the caption “Sightliness and Safety:" ) The east talks with pride of its White Ways, but at Council Bluffs, Ia., the lamp-posts per- form the added service of supporting flower boxes filled with nodding blossoms. And mir- rors on the trolley cars enable the motormen to see the car steps without having to turn, When you've made city streets at once safer and more beautiful, you've done more than to fill 'em with taxicabs and freak fashions, Wonder if we could not break through for Omaha by sending on a picture of our classical bank building with green foliage window garni- ture and our picturesque new hotel with its gay floral decorations? Nebraska and the I. W. W. Nebraska is just now having its first real ex- perience with the I. W, W, the outcome of which is to be determined. Other western states have been visited and more or less disturbed by this band of migratory irresponsibles, whose inverted system of social economy makes them a problem as well as a nuisance. Ordinary treatment, such as confinement or repression, has little effect upon them other than to invite further visitations. Be cause of this, the remedy for them is not easy, but our peace officers may be depended upon to see that order is maintained and the law sup- ported. Men with a constitutional grudge against all society, although not easily deait with, must not be permitted to overturn all that man has ac- complished. Nothing really serious has developed in connection with the I. W. W. in Nebraska, but the presence of these men itself is a menace, and the authorities must be vigilant... d Thought Nugget for the Day. In all the affairs of human life, social as well as political, I have remarked that courtesies of a small and trivial character are the ones which strike deepest to the grateful and appreciating heart.—Henry Clay.

Instead of getting out of prac- tice, I think you are improving—if any improve- ment is possible,” he added, politely, “Last evcnms?" she questioned. "Yes—about 9 o'clock.” “‘.;’ou"are mistaken.

Publicity That Helps. Omaha, July 18.—To the Editor of The Bee: The Nebraska Humane society wishes to thank you for the publicity and help you have given in keeping before the public eye the wants and aims of the society. That the Humane society today is & larger means for good in its work is largely due to your good offices. BEN STANLEY, Becretary. Preparedness and Prohibition. Omaha, July 18.—To the Editor of The Bee: Leslie's contains an article by Cap- tain P. Lincoln Mitchell of the National Security league, “Where Shall We Get Our Powder,” which is highly interesting from the standpoint of preparedness. He shows that for every two pounds of smokeless powder produced, one gallon of aleohol is used. Many millions of gallons of alcohol have thus been consumed in the manufacture of smokeless powder exported to the alli Captain Mitchell points out that the d tilling industry in this country is, there- fore, of greatest possible importance, and government authorities have already sent out inquiry blanks to distilleries as to what quantities they could furnish to the govern- ment in an emergency. He also points out that prohibition would practically destroy the greater part of the distilling industry in this country. While there o doubt much truth in the views expri by him, it goes without saying that it will be denounced by the ultra pacifists and the prohibitionists alike. But there are many uses for alcohol or spirituous liquors entirely apart from that which is sold for either beverage purposes or for making smokeless powder. Take this relatively small distillery for instance, pro- ducing at the rate of perhaps 150,000 wine gallons per month, and selling less than one- tenth that quantity within the state of Ne- braska. Probably one-half of the total prod- uct is used for other than beverage purposes, marketed through wholesale druggists, sold to hospitals and used by manufacturers of flavoring extracts, perfumeries, etc., etc. Nevertheless this state votes in November next on the initiative proposition, “Shall the manufacture and sale of liquors be forever prohibited in Nebraska.” If that constitutional amendment should carry at the polls, it would mean that the Omaha distillery would have to close its doors, and the product it has sold hereto- fore, (nine-tenths of it in other states, one- tenth in Nebraska), would be supplied from distilleries in the east. As shown by the experience of practically every prohibition state, the quantity consumed within the state would scarcely change, but would be shipped in from other states, either through legitimate channels or otherwise. (The At- lanta Constitution of June 80 records re- ceipts in that city of 16,825 legal shipments of liquor during June, as against 7,751 ship- ments in Ma: In other words, the demand remains and is supplied from without, but the manufacture and sale within the state weuld cease, the value of our plant would he wiped out for the sole benefit of distilleries elsewhere. It is not only destroying property value without due process of law, but it is taking away the earning capacity of a Nebrasks industry and turning it over gratuitously to factories in other states. Our plant is useless for other purposes, and the argument that it could operate even under prohibition for other than beverage purposes only, is fatuous. With more than half “its business made impossible, there would not be enough left to operate profit- ably. Denatured alcohol must be produced from material much cheaper than corn in order to compete. A. L. MEYER. Two Crying Evils. Omahs, July 18.—To the Editor of The Bee: I don't like to be & chronic grumbler, but I have two complaints to make which I think may be remedied if aired in public. I walk downtown every morning and in- variably find the janitors and porters of busi- weeping out the dirt upon fort, and to say nothing of the pal lation of the city ordinance. Again, I find street flushing carts going up and down where pedestrians are thick on the sidewalks, splashing mud and water on the shoes and clothes of women and chil- dren as well as the men. There is no good reason why most of this flushing should not be done earlier and, certainly none why it should not be done with more care of re- sults. w. EDITORIAL SIFTINGS.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: The Pershing ex- pedition started out as “punitive,” and now it is “protective.”” By the time it penetrates a few more weary miles, it will doubtless become “benevolent.” Philadelphia Ledger: Some earnest student of sociology has discovered that most mar- ried men who call their wives by telephone throw a kiss as they hang up the receiver.
