Between Sweden and Great Britain, Friction between Sweden and Great Britain, engendered by the mail situation, is reported as increasing. The Swedes have been able to retali- ate on England, by holding up British mails des- tined for Russia, the only direct communication between London and Petrograd being by way of a Swedish port. Sweden is the one neutral coun- try that has this material advantage, placing it on something of an equality with the British. As a neutral nation, the right of Sweden to intercept THE OMAHA DAILY BEE FOUNDED BY EDWARD ROSEWATER VICTOR ROSEWATER, EDITOR THE BEE PUBLISHING COMPANY, P’IOPRETOL Entered at Omaha postoffice as second-class matter.

Correctly viewed, this is, in reality, an insurance fund and the premiums are left with the bank paying them merely for accommodation. If this were fire insurance, or burglar insurance, or fidu- clary insurance, no bank going out of business could claim back the premiums paid in for which it has already had protection even though it still had the premium money on deposit. The most that could possibly be asked would be return of the unearned premiums or of a stipulated reserve; but to enjoy the insurance benefits and then get back all the money wauld be out of the question. In saying this, we do so without regard to the parties involved in the particular transaction which the governor is trying to justify and to in- dicate how the law must be changed to prevent its further abuse, —— the Witmess Stand, .| ¥ faMpher find that the: whole truth has not " been: tald ‘by either ‘side in this hearing.” This remarkable sentence was uttered by the pre- siding member of ‘the Douglas county insanity commigsioners announcing the decision in an im- portant case. The proceeding involved the lib- erty of a woman, and the witnesses on one side or the other included the members of the Wel- fare board, brothers and sisters of the accused and others. Yet the commissioners were at the end left to make up their opinions in the full belief that the whole truth had not been told. Com- ment on this seems unnecessary. It is referred to now only to reinforce what The Bee has hereto- fore pointed ‘out, that witnesses hold the truth entirely too’ cheap. They take a solemn oath that they will tell “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth,” and then as their in- terest, prejudice or attorney guides them, will dis- tort, evade or suppress and when they are through the judge on the bench, the attorneys on both sides and all who have listened to the testimony know that the truth has not been told. The case here referred to is not an isolated example; it is just the most recent, and one of the very few where the examiners have openly declared that witnesses on both sides have lied, and that all the facts have not been brought out. Integrity of our courts is'thus jeopardized, and no effort is made to check the evil, Placing the blame is not a difficult process, but who will say why the judges on the bench permit the practice? | T Stranded Stampeders Taste Charity. 4Bast.is cast and west is west,” and even if the twain should happen to meet where the one pretends to applaud ‘the' equestrian skill and gymnastics feats of the other, that's no sign that the casual acquaintance thus formed is to be mis- taken for amalgamation.

AUGUST 22, 1916. | TheDees LeSfer, How to Stop Reckless Auto Driving. Omaha, Aug. 21.—To the Editor of The Bee: Thank Heaven a coroner’s jury has had the courage to make a direct issue of reckless auto driving. I don't know the Cunningham family, but I do know the con- ditions on our streets and have no doubt whatever that the lady was needlessly killed. Pedestrians have absolutely no protection. Our police and police judge are either cow- ards, afraid to protect, them, or wholly in- different and negligen. of their duty. Must we go back to the custom of pioneer days and organize a vigilance committee to get rid of a few reckless drivers? A column or a page, yes, even a whole book, could be written of incidents where the rights of pedestrians have been stolen and their lives endangered, if not taken, but what is the use? Everybody knows and sees it, so all that remains is to find a cure for the evil. What are we going to do about it? How are we going to save the lives of our wives and children? Now don’t all answer at once. Think a bit for it is a serious question. I am a terri- torial old settler who was here before the auto and don't like to be chased into the river for safety. G. Helpful Hints for Humanity. ., Aug. 21.—To the Editor of It is a well-known fact that there is & ruling by the Postoffice depart- ment that general advertising is not allowed on the walls of buildings used as post- offices. It is not the intent or purpose of this letter to question whether such action is right or wrong, but a fair and open dis- cussion of the advertising found may not be deemed out of place. The army and navy, as organized in the present day, need recruiting stations, and the raw material is found among a reading, thinking and, may I say, a reasonably sen- sible people. Upon the walls of almost every postoffice throughout the land today language similar to this is found: “United States army develops s man has of courage; makes a strong body and trains the mind to disciplined decision. Enlist! Office open day and night.” Wonderful indeed is such development and what can be a more noble sight than he in splendid uniform on the battle front ready to die for loved ones that they may enjoy home and peace. That mind trained to dis- cipline and decision with a precision that demands or empties its own life blood to create a harmonious spirit that others may live. The vacant chair in the home is mute and silent memoirs of husband, father or son and we wonder why. May we look at the “strong bodies” and :itrained minds” of other lands than ourn; said to have been plunged into war becaure of the murder of & king and queen, and two years of strenuous fighting has accomplishud nothing favorable toward establishing peace or protection of human life or property and why? Military supremacy must be established that the world may sit up and take notice. Is it not & fact that we are out running our literary and religious institution in this mad career in the making of courageous men? May we not change this course to one of kome building with smaller tracts of land and more extensive farming, giving opportu- nities to those who will work and compel the L W. W. spirit to work or accept conse- quences 7 Eventually watchful walting will sieze its opportune time and join the great throng of agriculturists, artisans rchitects of their own fortunes, producing “strong bodies” and “trained minds” that will respect the rights of the people in a apirit of “do ye unto others as ye would” instead of doing him first at the muzzle of guns loaded with leaden bullets, taking shots at eivilization that only represents brute force of strong bodies that should be & reproach to any nation. May we have a little more of equality before the law in the name of common sense, befitting common humanity, with the cheap- -ening of all commodities except that of ‘hu- man life, and the crowns and thrones of earth will pale into insignificance before the example of one of the greatest nations with abundant resson.
