MULTIPLYING THE Law.

The persistent effort to force our
school board into politics and place the
patronage of the schools at the disposal
of politicians is nothing more nor less
than an attempt to nullify the law re-
lating to school elections. What was
the object of the legislature in divorc-
ing the school board elections from the
elections of city and county Off
GERS? Why are the schools
closed and the polling places
located in school houses? Why
did tho legislature enfranchise the
mothers of school childrenp
Is not the manifest intent OF the law
to take the management Of our schools
out of the political cesspool? Why
should we proceed in the usual way to
nominate members of the board of edu-
tion by party conventions, III defiance
of the plain intent of the law? Does
anybody who advocates partisan school
board elections contend that the law
is not in the interest of better
government of the schools? Can any
body defend the notification of q good
lawp Do figs grow from thistles?
What can we eXpectfrom convention
gotten up by political strikers and heel
ers? Why should members of the board
who are notoriously unpopular and lack
the confidence OF the community, be
the most outspoken opponents of nom
partisan school board?

THE antitrust law passed by the Ne
braska Legislature is bearing fruit in an
unexpected quarter. A prominent to-
bacco company which had bound re-
tailers by an agreement not to sell its
tobacco below fixed price has recently
issued a notice to retailers in this state
absolving them from their contract SELL
ing agreement sowing to laws enacted
in Nebraska against trusts and COM
binations." The tobacco firm denies
that 1t is a trust or a combine, or that its
contract with its customers in Nebraska
was designed to suppress competition.
But for all that the company saw fit to
suspend its agreement fixing the retail
price of its brands. The tobacco con-
sumer of Nebraska, at least, has
something to be thankful for, even
though no other relief comes to the peo-
pie of this state from the antitrust
measure.

NEWLY appointed Indian agents will
find accompanying their commissions
letters OF Instructions from the secretary
of the interior. .! They are directed that
the office to which they arc appointe d
is one OF more than ordinary inn
portance both for the interests OF
the government and OF the Indians.
They are therefore charged that sobri-
city and integrity shall mark their con-
duct OF the affairs of the agency, and
that the proper training of the Indian
children and the agricultural and other
industrial pursuits of the Indians shall
receive their constant and careful at
tention. The truth Of the matter Is that
the average Indian trader cares no more
than snap Of his finger for the moral
and industrial welfare of his charges.
He accepts his commission not with a
spirit of philanthropy, but with an eye
to money making. The pointed instruc-
tious Of the secretary of the interior are
intended to impress the Indian agent
thatthere are duties and responsibilities
resting upon his shoulders, which the
government has as much right to de-
mand as correct balance sheet of the
receipts and expenditures for supplies

MEMORIAL DAE

The return OF the day consecrated to
the patriotic and beautiful service Of
decorating the graves of the defenders
of the union brings with 1t the usual
store of memories and the lesson of
heroism and sacrifice. To those who
can recall the years OF civil conflict the
recurrence OF Memorial day is an op-
portunity for retrospection, rich in in
terest and in tender recollectious. To
those who have come later upon the
stage of life it conveys an impressive
lesson Of loyal devotion to the highest
duty Of the citizen.
Every nation has its galaxy of
heroes. In every age men have
given their lives in defense OF their
country. The blood OF those who fought
for freedom has enriched the soil OF all
lands. But history has no record
Of patriotism, Of courage, OF valor and
of sacrifice grander than that made by
the men whose graves grateful people
will to-day strew with the emblems OF
affection and gratitude. This republic
has been fortunate in its heroic charac-
ters. 1t were easy to name score al
most peerless in the worlds an
nails. But to-day the heroes who
speak to us are not those, or
these alone, but the vast host that went
to death On hundred battle fields and
in scores of prison pens,. with
those who, returning from the con-
illct, paid, untimely, the penalty
OF the hardships and privations
of the camp and the march. These
speak to us Of n courage that never fall
tered of a devotion that never doubted,
OF lofty and unselfish patriotism. So
long as the memory of these heroes is
cherished, and their great example
held in honor, tho republic will survive
all dangers that may assail it.

a rupture Of the Interstate Com,

telligently to be so numerous that they
could not but feel some misgiving as to
the result.
The difficulty that now confronts the
association grows out OF the application
OF the Chicago e. Alton and the Chi
cago, Burlington g. Quincy roads to be
permitted to reduce the lumber rate
from Chicago to the Missouri river.
The executive board Of the association
refused the request, setting forth some
cogent reasons in support Of the refusal.
1t was urged that to allow the pro-
posed reduction would be to bring
on n conflict which might entail
losses on the contestants amounting to
millions OF dollars. 1t was held that
existing circumstances do not justify
the reduction asked for, and that 1T
would be of no advantage to the roads
which ask it. The board thought il
neither business-like nor just to COM
petitors to insist upon takiug uuprofita-
BILE traffic merely for the sake Of main
taiuing its possession.
The arguments presented by the board
are clearly in line with the policy of the
association, but the president of
the Chicago g. Alton appears not to
be convinced by them. If he is COR
rectly reported, his company had deter
mined in advance not to submit to an
unfavorable decision, and accordingly
will establish the rate it applied for
permission to make in the face of the
decision. OF course such action would
be virtual abandonment of the associ-
alton. Nothing is indicated as
to what the Burlington may do, but
even should the Alton proceed alone
to establish the reduced rate it
would almost certainly precipi-
tate war so far as the lumber traffic is
concerned, and might easily lead to a
general rate war. Of course but one
such conflict would be required to put an
an end to the presidents agreement,
and this done a like arrangement could
not be effected again soon, This issue
serves to suggest the difficulties the
Interstate Commerce railway associa-
tion is likely to encounter from time to
time, and may also serve to prove how
little warrant there is for public conf
dence in the most carefully-prepared
and solemnly-made agreements of rail.

TIE senatorial committee appoip ted
to investigate our relations with Can
ada are now in Washington territory
taking testimony The burden of
complaint poured into the senator's ears
is to the effect that the people of Wash
ington territory are sadly handicapped
in all branches OF industry by the COM
petition OF the English of British Col
umbia. 1t is charged that the North
crn Pacific can not compete with the
Canadian Pacific on equal terms because
the latter road is subsidized by the
Canadian government. Our coasting
vessels have beon driven out of the
lumber carrying trade OF Puget Sound
because Great Britain and Canada have
voted subsidies To their own marine.
The lumber and mining industries of
Washington territory are said to be
crippled because the British employ
Chinese labor in their mills and mines.
The fishing interests of our country are
said TO bo suffering from the same cause.
In short, it would appear that in spite
OF the natural advantages and rich re-
sources OF Washington territory its
trade ana industry are paralyzed by the
interference OF the British across
the border. It would 6e inter
estlng in this connection to hear
