Premier Asquith says the post bellum eco- nomic warfare planned by the Quadruple Entente Allies is not to' be waged against neutrals, Just why he should announce a policy so obvious is not clear, unless it be to reassure his countrymen who are looking beyond the war, and in some way see the possible effects of the boycott now practiced under the enemy trading act. The pre- mier admits that the war has opened English eyes to the extent of the economic penetration by Germany in its effort to conquer the com- merce of the world. Seven years ago Winston Churchill, speaking to the Lloyd-George budget, called attention to the fact that Germany was far better organized, industrially and socially, than England, and urged his countrymen to emulate and possibly overtake “our great and friendly rival" England has had one great advantage, that of an immense accumulation of capital, invested in foreign securitigs. This gave London absolute control of the money market of the world, while the extent of the British banking system practi- cally put the control of credit into the same hands. Germany offset this to some extent by using the national credit to support commercial transactions. London will very likely be the money market of the world after the war is over, but credit will be released to some extent by the entrance of American bankers into the foreign field. This will narrow the field in which the Allies may effectively operate under their pro- posed plan for restricting enemy commerce, but will not prevent its application so far as they can make it effective. Premier Asquith’s explanation of the purpose of the Allies is a bland acknowledgement that | the truth of Churchill’s criticism is now felt. But, how will he square his pacific purpose with the blacklist? And what will he do with neutrals, who are also ambitious to develop industries and extend their commerce? i Of course if Mr, Hughes had wanted to please | | the democrats or to avoid their displeasure, he 1" would not have said it. It would seem that all petitions for clemency for Roger Casement were politely received and promptly pigeon-holed. — One provision of the Reavis honest container jill should require that the bottom of the box be placed a little further from the top. ; —— " For some inexplicable reason, no one in either Omaha or.

Senator Borah promises to “pi up” the sen- 's program by not observing the agreement by the democrats in caucus. This is not pretty, hut what can democrats expect of a lican insurgent? Hughes' Americanism. The New York World and certain other demo- cratic papers take Mr. Hughes severely to task because he does not specifically denounce the so- called “hyphenates” in his speech of acceptance. On this slim peg they hang high hopes of win- ning support for Mr. Wilson, and the emphasis the opposition is giving it shows how desperately they are driven for an issue. To make their point, these partisan critics have overlooked every public utterance of Mr. Hughes since his candidacy was broached. His commencement talk at Washingtor, while he was yet unnominated and still a member of the su- preme bench, was an unqualified declaration of Americanism, sound and patriotic in its every syllable. In his speech of acceptance, almost in his opening sentence, he declared for “America first, and American efficient.” This epigrammatic utterance was amplified as he proceeded, and deal- ing specifically with the objective raised by the World and its coadjutors, he declared “Utterly intolerable is the use of our soil for alien in- trigue.” None who reads the speech of Mr. Hughes dealing with the issues before the country, ap- proaching the topic with an open mind, can fail to be impressed’ with its evidence of devotion to the highest of patriotic standards, Sp——— ‘The print paper-makers say they were com- d to double prices in order to meet an in- creased demand; if that rule were applied all the way down the line, the newspaper publishers ould not mind so* much.

Delay Proves Costly Always. The Missouri Pacific now comes with a plea that to make the improvements required by the city will cost 20 per cent more at present prices than when they were ordered. Who is to blame for that? The city acted well within its rights in ordering the railroad company to construct viaducts over unprotected grade crossings. This was met by the railroad with all sorts of objec- tions, requiring finally resort to the courts, al- though similar cases for a quarter of a century had been invariably won by the city. Since the final decision of the court the railroad company has still delayed, 'haggling over details, and at last coming forward with a substitute plan, put- ting off the settlement from time to time. All the while the cost of construction material was advancing. The delay has already cost the Mis- souri Pacific a considerable sum of money, and may at any moment cost it much more, for the danger of a dreadful accident at one of its un- protected crossi is always present.

A party of engineers were tracing a township line across some farm lands in Illinois. As chance would have it, the line passed directly through a large barn having double doors on each side of it, and they found they could continue their measure- ments through the barn by opening the doors and thus avoiding the dreaded detour. The owner watchgd their progress with considerable inter- est, but made no comment until they had reached the farther side of the barn, when he asked: “Thet a railroad ye-all survein’ fer?” “Certainly," replied the chief, with a humor- ous_twinkle in his eye. : The farmer meditated a bit as he closed the barn doors behind them, when he remarked some- what I’neuivel : “I hain't got no objections ter havin' er railroad on my farm, but I'll be darned ef I'm going ter open and shet them doors f:;' yer train to go through!"—Youth's Compan- 1916. g The Pees LeHer Suffragists Claim Right to Smile. Omaha, Aug. 3.—To the Editor of The Bee: Let me thank you for putting in that picture of Mrs. Jiggs along with Mr. Jiggs and letting her have a “smile,” too, for she certainly had a smile' coming for appearing in the same issue of the paper containing the announcement of Mr. Hughes in favor of votes for women. We lost our campaign for the suffrage amendment in Nebraska, but we have won, or will win, just the same, because our work in Nebraska and New Jersey and other states, where we suffered defeat, is what is bringing around the men who will eventually give us the suffrage by an amendment to the federal constitution. So I say Mrs. Jiggs and all the women have a right to smile. SUFFRAGIST. Denies Charges and Impugns Motive. Irvington, Neb., Aug. 8.—To the Editor of The Bee: I in relation to of one kind or another now pending in which it is claimed that I am interested, and in which an attack was made upon the character of the hotel op- erated by me at Irvington. In the first place, the charges made openly and by in- ference that the hotel operated by me is used for immoral purposes is absolutely untrue and is known to be untrue by the parties who made such charges. I have a hotel license to operate this ho- tel, and the hotel is conduced, I might say, along very much better lines than probably any hotel in the city of Omal I have a great number of friends in Omaha who know that I and my wife are first-class cooks, and I have made a specialty of serving a chicken dinner, together with home-grown vege! bles and fruits, and have endeavored to in- duce my friends to patronize me. The sole objection these people have is that my frinds do come out to Irvington and that sometimes automobile parties come out in the late evening, and some automobile par- stop on early trips in the morning to at my hotel. There never has been any disturbance by any of my guests or myself. The only trouble that has ever been kicked up has been brought about through the mali interference by my enemies with at points and place off of and e hotel and the hotel property. In regard to all these lawsuits it seems to me the proper place to have these cases tried is in the court room before the judge, and it begins to look as' if these articles are being published to influence the court when it comes to pass upon the matter. Such conduet I consider entirely reprehensible, and it seems to me that a good cause would not require any such conduct upon the part of the one urging it. A large number of people live in and about Irvington and so far as I know the only persons who have any objection or complaint to make is this gang of four or five, none of whom live anywhere near the hotel, and a majority of whom do not live near the village, but who have assumed to themselves the right to regulate, regardless of law, my business, as well as constituting themselves the custodians for the community.
