The editor of THE OMAHA BEE is giving
the members Of the Nebraska legislature
some wholesome advice. If the members of
the last legislature had followed his advice
they would have squandered less money, and
would have accomplished some good. AS it

BEAUTIFULLY CONSISTENT.

The question of the location of the city
hall is live issue. Tho Republican has not
as yet taken any position in the matter be-
yond insisting upon the right of the people to
decide for themselves. That having been
conceded, it is content to stand neutral, pro-
viding the advocates of neither side resort to
unfair methods or Misrepresentation
publican.
Nobody expects the Republican to
grapple with live issue, and very few
people care what position it will take
with regard to the proposed relocation
of the city hall. But what consistency
is there in prating about unfair methods
and misrepresentation on neither
side'' and commencing to the taxpayers
Jim Creighton's tissue of falsehoods?
Could there be anything more un-
fair than Jim Creighton'S assertion
that the Farnam street site is not
accessible to the general public?
Could misrepresentation further go
than Jim Creighton's assertion that the
Farnam street site is not on the line of
travel nor in the direction of extend
ing commerce? Could any demagogue
surpass jim Creighton's assertion that
the Farnam street location is sought
for selfish purposes, while the Jefferson
square location is urged only for the
public good? Could misrepresentation
further 90 than Jim Crelghton's declara-
ton that Farnam and Eighteenth is
not central, while Jefferson square is
central as to commerce and population,
and will so remain by reason of the
prospective growth of this city north,
south, east and west. Will the RpuJ-
licdn kindly tell us how far east of JET
fcrson square the present population
extends and how much farther east it Is
expected to expand IN the next hund-
red years-unless the Missouri river
changes its course and transfers several
miles of Iowa into Nebraska. Fair
play is rare jewel but the Republican
was never known to possess it.

LABRADOR SEALS.
Habits OF the Animal We May
Fight England About.

Young seals are brought forth on large
floating fields of ice in March. The baby seals
are born with white hair, which soon changes
to soft silky brown fnr, and they nestle on
their frozen beds Of ice as long as they are
sucked by their mothers. When from to
6 weeks old they can exist in water. Then
they begin to follow their mothers about,
much after the fashion of human babies for
their attention and the food of fish which
they most dutifully provide. During this
period the mother seal is an alert and hardy
fisher, She will attack the most active and
powerful fish of these waters, save the shark
and we had the testimony of Captain
Deschamps that instances have been known
where battles between the food hunting
mother seals and these rapacious ruffians of
the deep resulted in the defeat and death of
the latter. They are powerful swimmers
and will force themselves up the most rugged
salmon leaps to attack the largest salmon.
when the young seals are from TO months
old they are left to shift for themselves. Nor
are they given up gradually
OF sudden the mother seems to deter
mine that sufficient time and energy have
been expended upon them. Instantly she is
stranger to the cub, and any further at
