NSATISFIED.

IF l could only fly and sing"
A tiny daisy said,
Delight to every heart I'd bringi
I'd cleave the blue o'erhead,
From earliest glimmer of the day
Until the sunsets glow;
But on the dull earth must stay,
And still be meek and low"
IF l could only star the field,
AS yonder daisies meek,
What joy unto the sight I'd yieldI-
More than my song can speak.
The dew would gem me, night and morn;
I'd dance amid the shower;
What pity bird was born,
How sweet to be flowerl"
"If could only live like these
Glad birds and daisy bright
can not soar among the trees,
To give the world delight.
In gay attire l never shine;
Though CHEEKY is my note,
Only cricket's life Is mine,
In summer fields remote
a merry wind, just passing by,
Laughed out, as laughs a child:
10 change your sphere, how vain to try,
Bird, cricket, daisy mild
God put you in the proper place
To do His gentle will
COntentment is the sweetest grace
That comes our lives to FILL

GIVE HOLMAN 4 CHANCE

If the democratic party really wishes
TO nominate illogical candidate" It
should have no difficulty in recognizing
the man in the person of Representative
Holman of Indiana. A noisy demand
for economy in public expenditures will
be the democratic slogan in the coming
campaign, and in order to be strictly
logical and consistent the party should
place its standard in the hands of the
only man who has an established repu-
tation for downright parsimony and
meanness in the matter of expenditures
for the maintenance of the government
in its various branches.
Under the leadership of Mr.. Holman.
who occupies the important position of
chairman of the appropriations com
mittee, the democratic majority in the
house OF Representatives has deliber-
ately pursued the policy OF crippling
some very useful branches of the public
service by inadequate appropriations in
order that the aggregate of the sundry
civil bill may be pointed to rs shining
proof of democratic economy to Offset
the extravaganza of the river and har-
Dor bill. The sundry civil bill en-
braces great number of branches of
government work which ought not to be
made to suffer in order that the democ-
racy may have campaign material, but
the public interest is OF little conse-
quence to statesmen who have an eye to
the political main chance first of all
The democrats should by all means
nominate Holman for president, and
their platform should dwell fondly upon
what Holmanism has done in the pres
ent house. Possibly some people OF
rather dull perceptions would not detect
the partisan purpose underlying the
ECONOMY that has been shown in the
injudicious and mischievous course pur.
sued upon the sundry civil bill.

:EsINCERE AND MISLEADING.

All the talk about Omaha or Douglas
county building and operating railway
bridge across the Missouri river is moth
ing more nor less than an attempt to
sidetrack the Nebraska Central project
by indirection. In the first place the
parties who advocate inis are either ig-
norant or insincere. They either do not
know that no city or county in this state
can be directly or indirectly Interested
in ony railroad or they are trying to
mislead people. Article xii of the con
stitution OF Nebraska reads as follows:
No city, county, town, precinct munich
pality or other subdivision OF the state shall
ever become subscriber to the capital
stock or owner OF such stock or any portion
or interest therein of any railroad or private
corporation or association.
II the city and county cannot own an
interest in railroad or part OF rail
road. how can We legally build a rail
road bridge which is an essential part
of railroad? Suppose we had right

Hill he could excite very little interest
and no enthusiasm in the party. To pass
by we'll known political leaders and take
up a man who is not known outside of
his state is not likely to be done by so
shrewd politician as David b. Hill.
All this assumes that Mr.. Hill will be
able to control his supporters and unite
them upon whoever he shall prefer, but
it is quite possible that he will not be
able to do this. He cannot exact loyalty
beyond his personal claims, and whom
his supporters have discharged their
full duty to him they will be free to go
TO whom they please and this it would
be reasonable to expect them to do
However, they are all anxious to defeat
Cleveland and would be very like ly to
concentrate on man acceptable to Mr.
Hill. it is practically settled that the
New York senator will not get the NOM
ination, but 1t Is also certain that he
will be strong factor in the convention
and may have II great deal to do with
naming the candidate OF the party.

THE reciprocity arrangement with
Austria a-Hungary, of which the presi-
dent made proclamation few days ago,
furnishes additional evidence of the
value and Importance of this policy.
We do not import much beet sugar from
that country, but the government OF
Austria desired to retain the American
market, and in order to do so has ad-
mitted the United States to all the ad-
vantages of the zollverein arrangements
recently made with Germany, Belgium
and Italy. Our manufacturers obtain a
reduction of duties on u long and varied
list of products and ought to be bene-
fitted to an amount much larger than we
pay annually to Austria-Hungary for
beet sugar. The United States now has
all the advantages of preferential or
minimum tariff rates in Germany,
France and Austria-Hungary, n consid-

A Double Treason.

81 futu Pioneer Press rcDD
1t answers very well their own present pur-
poses for the Blaine boomers to fill the am
pient air just now with declarations Of their
purposes; and, to one who Is accustomed to
weigh words great deal and facts very
little, their scheme has certain plnusibility.
But the bottom will fall out of it long before
the convention meets at Minneapolis. That
body will be different from any other repre-
sentative assemblags OF republicans Of the
nation Ii 1t does not decline to be stampeded,
and proceed If necessary to give the Blaine
movement u sudden quietus. To the
Quays and Platts and Clarksons
it seems the simplest and most natu-
raj thing in the world to avail
themselves of Mr. Blsine's great popularity
to accomplish the purposes OF their petty
spite. They would use the admiration and
enthusiasm which Mr.. Blaine has always
comm anded, and never more than now,
either to make him the candidate, with Alger
or some other nonenity in second place. or to
give the nomination outright to one OF these
men after the drift to Harrison had been
checked. What the conseouen ces might be
to Mr.. Blame or to the republican party they
do not stop 20 think, because they do not
care. 1t seems to us that every man true to
he-repu blican party and every sincere friend
of Mr. Blaine will see that the anti Harrison
program contemplates rank treason to both

Those who oppose the Nebraska Cen
trail project because it will help to inn
prove part of the city in which they
have no interest should bear in mind
that every improvement in any part OF
the city benefits tho whole city and con-
tributes toward raising property values
and eGnciug taxation.
For instance, the building OF Krug's
new brewery near South Omaha will in
directly benefit property owners near
Fort Omaha, because every substantial
improvement that employs labor and
capital and makes permanent invest
ment helps to raise the standard of
Omaha as city, and creates an addi-
tional source of revenue for the city by
increased receipts from taxos. 1t does
not matter in what part OF the city any
permanent structure is located, the part
of revenue which 1t contributes in the
shape of taxes decreases in proportion
the taxation of other property in every
part OF the city.
Another thing that should be borne
in mind is that property values are rela-
tive. If lots on Farnam street sell for
So, 600 front foot, lots on other business
streets will command values that are
gaugcd by the standard representing
the highest value. And this is true of
every foot of ground in the city as we'll
as of every acre of farm land in the
neighborhood of Omaha. IL farming
lands within five mlles of the postoffice
are selling for 800 an acre, farming
lands within ten miles will, all things
being equal, command price proper
toned to their respective distance from
the center of the city. Now the price OF
city lots and lands within q radius OF
twenty miles from the city is governed
by population.
In other words, the value of real estate
in and around city Of 10000 popula-
tion will certainly double with the
doubling of population. If by any great
project Omaha can raise her population
10000 to $4,000 within the next five
years real estate values viii go up 50 per
cent, regardless as to where the improve
ments, whether in factories, mills, ele.
vators or railway depots, shall be located.
In the immediate neighborhood of such
improvements the increase in value
| would be from 100 to 500 per cent, but
there would be an increase all along the
line. With the increase of property
values there will be corresponding de-
crease in the tax rate, inasmuch as every
structure and every improvement con
tributes its proportion of .axes and
thereby relieves all the other taxpaylne
property in exact proportion to it'
assessed value as compared to the aggre
gate assessment.

HILLS POLITICAL SUPPORT

The question as to who will receive
the political support of Senator David
B. Hill when he shall! be convinced, as
he ought 70 be already, that he cannot
be nominated at Chicago, is receiving
attention in democratic circles. There
have been various reports regarding
Mr.. Hills intentions. One OF these
states that he Is now ready to swing his
support to Senator German of Maryland.
Another says that he is on the eve of
Withdrawing and will name General
Slocum OF New York as the man whom
he desires his friends to support. Other
reports name other persons whom Hill
Is assumed TO favor.
The only. thing certain is that Mr..
Hill will spare no effort to defeat Cleve-
land, and it is not to be doubted that he
wires TO do this Who he prefers after
himself will probably not be known until
the convention meets. There is some
piausbiity in the statement that it will
be German, chiefly for the reason that
he is very much such politician as
Hill is. BIT the New Yorker's support
would be wasted II given to the Mary
land senator, since it is highly improba-
BILE that the convention will take can
didate from a southern state, and that
state having only eight electoral votes
and being safely democratic.
Assuming that the convention would
in any contingency take a southern man
II would doubtless prefer Senator Car
Isle of Kentucky, but there will be no
necessity for taking candidate from
the south and 1t is entirely safe to say
that it will not be done. Mr. Hill would
also waste his strength should he make
General Slocum his political legatee, for
however popular Slocum may be with the
democrats OF New York--and there is no
evidence that he is more so than per-
haps a dozen other men in that state
| the democrats OF the rest of the country
have no knowledge Of him. He is not
nationally known in connection with
politics, and even with the support oI

kentucl.y,s Centennial.

Chicago Herald
The 1st of June is the centennial anniver-
sary of the admission of Kentucky as state
in the union.
In the last session of the Second congress
Kentucky and Vermont were both applicants
for statehood. The enabling act admitting
Kentucky was passed February 4, 1871, but
the admission was put off until June /, 1902.
The enabling act for Vermont was passed
February IS, 1901, but as no date was set by
the act 1t became state Immediately after
congress adjourned, March 4, 1891. But Ken
tuckv Is fairly entitled TO be called the oldest
child OF the union.
IL was a remarkable people that settled
that commonwealth. Sprung from the best
OF Virginia stock, the early settlers were a
race of heroes who in twenty years wrested
''the dark and bloody ground" from the In
dians. In 1776 the Virginia Legislature formed
the whole territory into the county OF Ken
lucky, and it so continued for q number of
years, but as the population increased feel
ing OF independence grew up and separation
was demanded. So many delays occurred that
the people became much angered. and cer-
tain of the leaders entered into negotiations
with Spain, then the possessor of the Louis
lana territory, to come under tho protection
of that power Other efforts were made
looking to The establishment of Kentucky as
an independent republic. Finally, in Decem.
ber, 1889, the Virginia legislature consented
to separation and then the people turned to
the federal government for admission. In
all, no less than nine conventions were held
demanding admission before congress passed
the enabling act.
The people OF Kentucky have always been
singularly independent in character and
have been devotedly attached to personal
liberty. Their first constitution made man.
hood suffrage the basis of government being
| the first American constitution to establish
| that principle Kentucky bad been state
| in the union but six years when those cele-
| brated resolutions of 1898 were adopted op-
| posing the alien and sedition laws and deny.
| ing the power of congress to pass such laws
| and protesting against them.
| In every war in which the United States
| have been engaged Kentucky soldiers have
borne prominent and honorable part and
! in the war of 1912, particularly, they saved
| the credit Of the national arms. The name
kentuckian Is synonymous with everything
that is generous, hospitabie and chivaIrous
| Kentuckians may well be proud of their state
| and its history. No common wealth holds 9
| more honorable place in the union today. II
| is the mother Of statesmen and heroes and
| names that will last as long as our history
are imperishably associated with it, AS ii
| enters upon its second century of statehood

Mayor Bemis has approved the or
dinance adopted by the city council to
license gambling in the city OF Omaha
by means of a system Of periodic fines
upon keepers of gambling houses and
their inmates. The mayor says that he
approves the measure for the purpose
of seeing how it will work He will find
that it will work about as THE BEE pre-
dicted in its protest against the or
dinance last Sunday. 1t attempts to
override the criminal code relating to
gambling and places tho legislative aid
executive authorities OF the city in the
attitude of abettors and accessories to
business defined by law as felonious
crime.
The mayor has made Il mistake. He
has placed himself and the city in an
attitude of law defiance and has struck
blow at all pretense of reform.
