Regardless of the declaration by President Ripley that the Atchison road will not accept the proposed trainmen’s wage increase legislated by Congress except by court order, it has been plain from the outset that the law would sooner or later have to undergo a judicial test in one form or another. No legislation affecting the earning power of railroad investments has ever been per- mitted to become operative without running the gauntlet of the courts whether rate reductions, tax increases or other expense-enlarging regula- tion. Sometimes the court test proves the act in question to be unconstitutional or invalid but as a rule, even in such cases, the way is at the same time opened to correct the defects or to accom- plish the object in a legal manner. It is interesting to note the conclusion reached by one of the leading railroad lawyers in New York, quoted in the Wall Street Journal, whé insists that so far as its constitutionality is con- cerned one section of the bill “is not worth the paper it is written upon.” Yet he adds “but no matter how unconstitutional, the law would have to be put into actual practice pending a decision of its constitutionality by the supreme court which could not be obtained for about two years. The actual observance of the law for that length of time would suffice to establish it as a custom which it would be practically impossible to upset. In railroad service, changes in wage scales or conditions favorable to the men once made are permanent. If this view is correct, it is idle to speculate on the possibility or probability of the court setting aside the new Jaw on the ground of its unconstitu- tionality. If its provisions are put into effect on any road, all the roads will have to do the same in self protection and the prospect that all of the roads will hold out against it is remote. “ Heated Spell in the Senate. A combination of weather and politics has produced a real “Bermuda high” in the United States senate, under the influence of which Mr. Ashurst of Arizona ran amuck among his col- leagues, Goaded by the remarks of his opponents this champion of undefiled democracy, sloshed around in true Arizona Kicker style, emitting epithets and threats, and otherwise defending the purity of election by indulging in the language and displaying the demeanor of a street loafer. The incident is further proof that administration supporters are keenly aware of the approach of an election, and are anxious to make any sort of showing that will enable them to retain hold on office. In the case of Mr. Ashurst, his excess of temperature and zeal was engendered by the pres- ence of the Owen corrupt practices act, the politi- cal purpose of which at the present time is to pre- sarve intact the already adopted alibi that the republicans mean to purchase the election. “Un- fess we can prevent,” shout the democrats, “our voters will be purchased wholesale.,” No bit of all the partisan buncombe indulged by the desperate feaders of the Wilson party is thinner than its pretended support of the Owen election bill, and none will be more accurately valued by the voters, who propose to try democracy on its record of broken promis: QGood Advice to Teachers. Superintendent Graff of the Omaha public schools, addressing the thousand teachers who will have charge of the work in the school rooms, gave them some good advice, among other things this bit, which should be taken home by parents as well as teachers. * Eliminate your non-essentials, and connect everything you teach with life. Go out and connect up. We have gone from a pioneer diet of the three R's to a thanksgiving table of plenty. The child is threatened with mental dyspepsia, Herein lies the crux of modern education. Eliminate non-essentials, This doesn’t mean that education is to be restricted to the bare bones of special knowledge, but that it should be made practical and devoid of things that serve only to detract attention from realities, Ground the child thoroughly in elementary knowledge, and when his mind has developed to the proper stage, he will be able to recognize more clearly his spe- cial needs and to determine more accurately what will meet them. Public schools on this basis will —— Cutting Off the Stamp Tax. In agreeing to abolish the stamp tax, so ob- noxious to everybody, the democrats resort to a still flimsier makeshift to fill the gap in the revenue thus created. No serious objection will be raised to levying a tax on profits derived from war contracts, but the income from this source is even more uncertain than the tax on telephone and telegraph messages, and bonds and real es- tate transfers. If the war were to terminate within three months, or six months, as it easily may, from what source will the government derive income to make up the difference? True, five millions added to the democratic deficit of half a million a day wouldn’t amount to much, except as indicating the policy of the party in power, which has shown itself eminently unfitted to deal with great problems of government. Its whole revenue system is one of uncertainty, and without continuing strength. However, the sale of bonds is always easy, and the record of democracy is that it manages to pile up debts where the re- publicans accumulate a surplus. P Housewives Win a Battle. One of the most notable victories of recent days has just been recorded in a terse statement that sugar has come down. No very good reason is known why sugar went up as it did, but it went, the sugar magnates feeling that the impending canning season warranted holding the commodity at the higher figure. The housewives of America grappled with the situation by resolutely declining to steam themselves over stewing fruit during the hot summer, and with little assistance from nature in the way of a shortage of fruit, succeeded in leaving a considerable surplus accumulation of sugar that is now to be moved at lower prices. Dinner tables may not hold so much of jams and jellies and preserves during the coming cold season,~but the contents of the sugar bowl will come cheaper: L _______J] In the merry April days when the assessors fared forth in the annual quest for things visible, in all Nebraska they found only 64,475 automo- biles marked down at $65.02 each. Up to Septem- ber 1, 93,306 cars had been licensed by the state, The difference between the number as- sessed and licensed is no less surprising than the taxable bargain figure of last winter's auto crop, Thought Nugget for the Day.

To bring the two together means to turn the idle water into golden dollars. Why is it not done? Because the Re- clamation Service of the United States has stored up the water and feels that it has a right to keep it. What for? To ririgate the dry lands of the semi-arid region it is intended to serve. Well, why doesn’'t the Reclama- tion Bervice let the water go to the cornfields that need it? No- body outside of official Washing- ton seems to know." The Reclamation Service has a standing offer to turn out any storage water which it can spare for the use of those further down the river at the rate of 20 cents per acre foot. If any of the corn fields to which you refer can make use of this water and de- gires it, it can be obtained at that price. An acre foot of water is the equivelant of 325,850 gailons. In other words, over 16,000 gallons for 1 cent. Do you know of anywhere else that water can be obtained as cheaply? If anyone really wants this water and can use it, they should apply to the project manager in charge of the Pathfinder dam, Mr. Andrew Weigs, Mitchell, Neb. A. P. DAVIS, Director and Chief Engineer. Make Future Strikes Impossible. David City, Neb, Sept. 7.—To The Editor of The Bee: It is conceded that the strike menace and the par- alyzing of all transportatjon on rail- roads is not settled and that remedial measures must be passed by congress to prevent the curtailing of business transactions and a certain ~mount of stagnation, it woiuld be well for the newspapers to begin advoecating the enactment of some practical measures to control the situation. It would re- lieve ‘the tension and fears in busi- ness. should be required to take o6ut na- tional charters doing an interstate business or controlling laboring men engaged serving these lines of com- merce. All stock association levying tributes, even though for beneiliciary pyrposes, should be regulated in their charges and acts to prevent fraud and dis- crimination; issuing bonds, shares or stocks, and to strictly prohibit organ- izing or framing conspiracies inimical to the public interests or welfare. As it is necessary to prevent and subdue riots, mobs and insurrections, to preserve the property and protect the lives of the public, by force of arms if necessary, it is no less impera- tive on our government to prevent strikes and lockouts that may lead to as serious consequences; and no one should complain, as the men who seek to enforce unlawful and arbitrary de- mands on either side of the contro- versy will be as ready to demand pro- tection from the government should their interest be imperiled. When influences are getting ram- pant that threaten public safety there is time to act before the storms break. Preventlon is better than cure. I am a friend of labor, as I have been in harness for more than a haif century, been in strikes and lockouts, but always had to stand between the employer and employes, and I know it will be best for the two sides to the controversy to be regulated. THOMAS WOLFE. Here is a Needed Improvement. Omaha, Sept. 7.—To the Editor of The Kee: There is a place on the border of what was South Omaha and Omaha that needs improvement more than any other place I know of at present. That place is from Vinton street to A street, on South Twenty- third street. There is a gap at that oint of about four blocks that needs mprovement. The street not only is not paved, but does not run straight. The street ought to be straightened, then graded and filled in where need- ed, and paved. Hundreds of vehicles of every kind pass that point every day and it has been a passing wonder to me that steps have not been:taken to fix that street up as it ought to be done. The city commissioners and Commercial club cught to see that that part of the city is given an improvement that is a real necessity. I have no personal interestr in the improvement of this street except for the good of the pub- lic in general, for I live a number of blocks from the place in question. 1 hope steps will soon be taken by the proper authorities to see that this street is improved in the manner I have suggested. When we have rains the place is very muddy and almost impassable. An improvement of this street will benefit not only the local owners of property, but will be of general benefit to the whole city. FRANK A. AGNEW. Railroads and the Law. Omaha, Sept. 7.—To the Editor of The Bee: I note without surprise that President E. P. Ripley of the Sante Fe says his road will not obey the eight-hour law until compelled to by a decision of the supreme court. In this Mr. Ripley is consistent with rallroad practice. They never obey a'law until compelled to. It took over twenty years to compel them to obey the law requiring the equipment of all cars with safety couplers and air brakes; the law was fought in every court and every congress, but was at last - established, and today the rail- road operations could not be carried on without it. They fought every compensation law ever passed by na- tion or state, every rate law and ev- ery attempt to regulate them in any way. Omaha carried the viaduct ques- tion to the supreme court of the United States and won it more than twenty-five years ago and still must take each succeeding viaduct case over the same route. It was under- stood in advance that the railroads would not obey the law until com- pelled to. They mever did, and that is why the public feels such deep sympathy with all their movements, FORMER STOKER. TIPS ON HOME TOPICS.
