Embargo On Food Exports ‘New York Journal of Commerce 4l There is no way to prevent agitation of the \luestion of imposing an embargo upon the export f food products or to prevent members of con- ess from wasting time over such a‘proposal at he coming short session; but it should be vigor- pusly discountenanced by an enlightened public pinion. It is unfortunate if there has been a ortage in the l?ops of foodstuffs this year, then there is such/a demand for them; but there #5 no reason why there should not be a normal %t.nbutmn of the supply and the legitimate stim- R for.a larger production next year. Neither the fact that farmers are getting an unusual price jor what they have to sell or that,the cost to gonsumers is high, should be a controlling con- Bideration. There is no such prospect of domestic want or h;lrdlhip as to justify a government inter- \icrence with the course of trade, the main object Bf which would be to affect conditions for the ations at war in Europe. There is one lesson that ought to be taught by juch shortage of food supplies as there may be. Fhere is an_intolerable amount of waste and ex- vagance in the consumption of these materials . {ih this country, while those warring nations are it on short allowance, which an embargo would feriously aggravate, There is no law or possi- y of law, except that of humanity or morality, ‘prevent the waste of food which prev-i{s i g those who can afford it, to the sacrifice of he health and comfort of those who cannot afford But there ought to be a wholesome sentiment d by every available agency to counteract amount of wholesome food thrown away ery day at the public hotels and restaurants the private kitchens of the rich, would pre- pent want throughout the mass of the poorer opul tion, ere is no compulsion that can be ed to counteract this, but a great deal could e done by vpl\gnllry‘and co-operative effort, if were a disposition to do it. The policy ment interference would do more. harm good may come from the » N8 ood, while some experience. ‘oE Mr. Bryan's Contradictions. The latest issue of the Commoner gives us Mr. Bryan's interpretation, or rather interpreta- tions, of the election, which always have more than passing interest to Nebraskans, and more | than usual interest this time because of their seeming contradictions. In his message of congratulation to the presi- dent Mr. Bryan asserts, “The states beyond the Missouri have rallied to your support and saved the day.” In another place he says, “The clection was won by the west and south without the aid or consent of the east.” Still another signed article he heads, “The Women Did It.” Finally, he declares, “It was the ‘dry’ states that furnished most of the electoral votes,” on which he predicates this ultimatum: “The party is now free to take up the fight against the saloon—it must do so unless it is willing to exchange the support of those who saved it from: defeat for the support of those who in the year of Our Lord 1916 would' have led it into a slaughter house.” At whom this scarcely veiled reference aims everyone is permitted to conjecture. The only claimants to whom no recognition is given are the former progressive party-ites who are ordinfrily supposed to have turned over the two or three really needed pivotal states. One more peculiar Bryan observation is this with reference to Mr. Wilson's popular plurality: “A president could not put much heart into his work if he knew that a plurality of the voters fav- ored the eclection of another man.” What clap- trap! If this be true now, why was it not also true four years ago when the democratic president was elected without a popular plurality? And why a plurality instead of a majority? Is it because even with his made-in-the-south popular plurality this year, the vote for the successful candidate still falls far short of a majority? Then again, had Mr. Bryan succeeded in capturing the electoral college in any one of his three “lost battles,” even without a popular plurality, does anyone. doubt he would have been able to take up the work and put his whole aun into it? Farmers and Good Roads. One of the resolutions passed by the Nebraska Co-operative Grain‘and Live Stock association does not ring true. It is the one dealing with good roads, which commits the association to the perpetuation of the present system of road building. The objection raised to the permanent road is the very one that is most eloquent against the dirt road, the cost of maintenance. If a dirt road is maintained in passable condition, it must be the object of incessant care. Even then it is not serviceable in the highest degrec. The farmer is the one who pays the high cost of bad roads in Nebfaska, as elsewhere. He pays it in the added price of transporting all he sells and all he buys. The first cost of a permanent road necessarily exceeds that of a dirt road, but it does not rsquire the constant care, nor the ex- cessive repairs, is not subject to destruction by every rain that falls, and will soon pay for itself in the saving it makes possible in the cost of hauling crops to market. Our farmers should give this question close study before committing themselves against the demands of progress. Changes in European Cabinets. Important changes have been annouhced in two of the great European cabinets, and it is hinted that others impend. In times of peace these might portend such modifications of policy as would be momentous, but under the circum- stances the substitution of one for another cab- inet minister is not likely to have any pro- nounced effect on the general course of the government concerned. In the case of the retire- ment of von Jagow from the position of foreign minister for Germany, it is certain no alteration in policy will follow. Dr, Zimmerman, who suc- ceeds, has long been von Jagow's second, and is thoroughly committed to the general purpose of the empire in its external relations. Person- ally, he is a Junker, but his official position has forced hin away from his predilections in this direction. It may be he will find his new place more difficult to maintain without greater revision of his personal views. Von Jagow's friendship for the United States has left a precedent in Berlin that will not be easily disturbed. In Russia the retirement of Premier Sturmer and the elevation of Alexander Trepoff to that position of control in the czar’s government may be hailed as another gain for the liberal element of Russian politics. At any rate, Starmer has been a ‘close adviser of the bureaucrats, while Trepoff is listed as one of the liberal leaders of the empire. Problems of the war are closely con- cerned here, for the Russian cabinet controls indirectly the military activity of the nation. * In England a demand has been voiced for the retirement of Premier Asquith, that a younger and more energetic man may come to the head of the cabinet. These political switches, if they have any significance, may be nke& as signs of discontent among the people over the progress of the war, but do not presage any sweeping alterations in its course. Art ior the People. ' Members of the Omaha Society of Fine Arts are impatient because its propaganda does not take hold of the masses as completely as the pro- moters would like. In some sense this is due to a misapprehension, which the society is eager to dispel. The show and the lectures are not for the “high-brows" exclusively, but for all. One of the objects of the society is to create a better understanding and fuller appreciation of the art that is enduring, and that is a part of the better and fuller life of the community. It is to awaken among the whole people the desire for the things that ennoble and endure that the society. now labors. Its message is to everybody, and not to a selected class. Art for the people has a distinct value, but the people must not be blamed until aroused from their indifference to art, and brought to understand the distinction between the per- mament and valuable and the ephemeral and worthless. —_— Under the orignal charters granted railroads in New Jersey members of the legislature and certain constitutional officers of ghe state are entitled to free transportation and scofes of other officers squeezed in on the pass system. A re- cent court decision involving a pass privilege for the governor’s private secretary draws a formid- able constitutional line, beyond which minor deadheads may not ride without paying cash. That hits Jersey jobholders in a tender spot. | [ The American Federation of Labor protests against any law compelling arbitration of labor disputes in the transportation service. The rail- roads insist that the Adamson bill is unconstitu- tional. Representative Adamson warns the train- men_ that any attempt to strike pending the in- vestigation ordered by congress will be sternly dealt with by the federal government, and notifies the railroad managers that there is not the slight- est chance of the law being held unconstitutional, and that if there is any resistance the law will be made still stronger. Surely that is a pretty mess. A three-cornered fight is the hardest thing in the world to under- stand, but apparently the meaning of it is that the federal government, under its constitutional authority to “regulate ¢commerce among the sev- eral states,” claims the same jurisdiction over the persons engaged in intérstate transportation that it exercises over property dedicated to that serv- ice, + It is claimed that there is no interference with individual rights. The individual stockholder may sell his stock and go out of the business, and the individual employe may quit. But the service required by the public must go on, and must not be interfered with by collective action by either party to a dispute. The right to strike as a result of collective action has been generally conceded, and the right to use vilonce or intimidation to prevent contin- uation of service is not claimed. Chairman Adam- son seems to deny even the right to strike o those engaged in interstate transportation. He holds that those in that service must be content with presenting their grievances, and must abide by the result of arbitration as provided by law, or quit as individuals. Of course, this is nb new doctrine. Such is the law of Canada and in some states of Australia, and g‘trhaps of the Australian commonwealth. The pbésition of Chairman Adamson assumes that if even large numbers of the trainmen should individually quit work, the service could be con- tinued by the employment of new men now un- employed, or less favorably employed, who would be ready to take the vacated places. That assumption seems to introduce a new clement into the discussion. We have heard a good deal of the rights of labor and the rights of property. We have heard something of the rights of the ;f)tnple. We have not hitherto heard any- thing of the rights of the unemployed to work if they can find a job, Chairman Adamson’s statement of policy as- sumes that if one person leaves a job another may take it, and, having taken it, may hold it and be protected therein by all the power of the nation. ‘That may be only the personal view of Chair- man Adamson, but presumably it would not be publicly expressed unless in accord with the views of whoever will control the action of con- gress. In Mighty Good Company Most mistakes leave some compensation behind them. Mr. Hughes is an eminent law- yer. He is a brave, pure, upright man. He will stick ‘out his shingle again, get a great law practice, die rich and leave his famiy at- fluent. That is surely something. Nay, one thing else; he has escaped the discomforts and disappointments of the “goldarndest,” meanest office on the face of the globe to a man of real brain and heart to end his days like the Chris- tian and the gentleman that he is. The Cour- ier<Journal tenders him its sincere congratula- tion. There are lots of things in this bleak world worse than béing beaten for president, and historically he is in mighty good company. (Henry Watterson in Lonisville Courier-Journal.) ] Observations On Mr. Bryan l From Omaha the story-is solemnly sent forth that Mr. Bryan, disgusted with the defeat of his candidacy for delegate to the democratic national convention and of his candidates for governor and senator at the general election, will shake the dust of Nebraska from his feet, emigrate to North Carolina, and so on. It is an old yarn. In the imagination of his enemies Mr. Bryan is always tquitting Nebraska,” “leaving the party.” He can't go to Florida, or Texas, or anywhere else without being pursued by the antique myth. The other day he said he was going to try to bring the democratic party to favor national prohibi- tion. Now “many Nebraska democrats believe he has his eye on the prohibition presidential nomination in 1920.” Mr. Bryan has his faults, but it can’t be truly said that he doesn’t stick to the democratic party or that he has been embittered by his political defeats, whether personal or of policy. The dem- ocrats of his own state have to fight him at times. They fought him notably last year. But he loves to fight and he is a personage, an institution. He doesn’t ' lose his hold. He has no inconsiderable genius for being wrong, some may think, but, after all, he is the head of the democratic family in Nebraska. The Nebraska democrats may quar- rel with him, but they won'’t let anybody else. Mr. Bryan has never shown any disposition to get out of the democratic party. Possibly fie may reed an enormous row in it by trying to force prohibition upon it, but nobody can doubt the sincerity of his opinions, however mistaken, Even if he were not a loyal partisan, he knows the im- potence of a national prohibition party. Possibly something quixotic and impossible in the attempt to impose national prohibition on the party of state rights nllm;es Mr. Bryan, whose “Jeftersonian democracy” is capable of many queernesses. The south and the west, where he has been strongest, are reasopably dry already. They are dry, however, for the most part, under compromises with Satan that permit a certain monthly ration of mild and strong waters. Will they accept absolute prohibition by an amend- ment making no concession to the weaker breth- ren and the stomach’s sake? Meanwhile, the Webb-Kenyon law, which shuts out of interstate commerce rum in the original or any other pack- age trying to make its way from a non-prohibition to a prohibition state, has yet to be passed upon by the supreme court, }f that law happens to be sustained, it is to be feared that a good deal of quasi-dry feeling in the south and west will evaporate. 'Why doesn’t Mr. Bryan use his suasive eloquence to make sham prohibition give way to real prohibition in nominally dry territory? People and Events Eighteen thousand employes of New York City, from the street sweepers up to the elective jobholders, get wage boosts aggregating $1,147,- 000 a year, effective January 1. The manner of equalizing the split is shown by an increase of $12 a year in the pay of women janitors and $5,000 in the salary of the president of the Board of Aldermen, Madison Square Garden, New York City's famous auditorium, goes under the foreclosure hammer December 8, to satisfy a first mortgage for $2,000,000 held by the New York Life Insur- ance company. A second mortgage for $650,000 is also outstanding. The Garden occupies an entire block of ground, 197 by 425 feet, and was opened to the public June 16, 18%. A financial nemesis pursued the arena from the start. Capitalizing the lake front as a high living summer resort goes forward by leaps and bounds at Chicago. Already the northern front is dotted with towering apartment * houses and family hotels and many more projected.

In Omaha Thirty Years Ago. The elegant new house of Mads Toft on Fhirview street was the scene of a house-warming at which a beautiful Knights ‘of Pythias charm was pre- sented to Mr. Toft by the ladies of his store, the presentation speech be- ing made by J.

Hayward, Ben Gallagher, W. W. Bingham and C. W. Hamilton. Councilmen Lee, Lowry and Good- rich and Fire Marshal Galligan have returned from Chicago where they signed a contract for the Preston truck with full equipment of fire fight- ing apparatus, the principal feature of which is a patent extension ladder. The cost of the truck and ladder is $3,500. Herman Kountize, receiver for the South Omaha nd syndicate, made an application to Judge Dundy for authority to keep a contract made by the original company to donate a lot in South Omaha to the Methodist Episcopal church. and one to Rev. John O'Connor, bishop of Omaha. A reception was given by Mr. and Mrs, Hoagland, which was intended as the coming-out party of their daughter. The Musical Union sup- plied the inspiration while the refresh- ment room was decorated a la Japa- nese. Mr. and Mrs, Archie Powell, with their four boys, have left for Michi- gan to spend a short time with rela- tives there. 4 This Day in History. 1681—First assembly of New Jersey met at Burlington and organized a guvernment. 1757—Breslay surrendered 'by the Prussiahs to the Russians. 1768+~John Armstrong, secretary of war during the War of 1812, born at Carlisle, Pa, Died at Red Hook, N.
