Omaha daily bee., 1894-03-04

A New York judge enunciates the doctrine
in a decision denying the claim of a woman
to marital relationship with a defendant in
his court that words of endearment in love
letters are never to be taken literally; the
extravagant use of such words therefore can
not be held to conclude the defendant to
their literal meaning, even If he did write
them" Won't this establish a cloak for men
to hide behind when love affairs get too
warm? How can susceptible women rely
upon anything a man may write to them If
his words of endearment are not to be under
stood in their literal sense? The rule of in
depreciation here laid down will tend to
make love missives synonymous with deceit.
1t is cruel for a court to juggle thus with the
recognized instrument for conveying express
sions of admiration and affection
Omaha daily bee., 1894-03-04
sECULAR SHOTS Ar 1HR pulpit.

Minneapolis Times: President Harper of
Chicago university, who is giving lectures on
the creation, objects to the newspaper re-
ports. He says there are not three men in
Chicago who could accurately report them.
He doubts If he could do it himself. He is
the man the reporters want to toy with. A
man who does not know what he is saying
himself is their meat.
Pioneer Press: The last Methodist confer
ence in Wisconsin declared for prohibition,
and Pastor Clark of Fond du Lac has been
preaching that doctrine. He recently de-
clared that no man could he a Methodist and
not be a prOhibitionist. This statement was
excepted to by Elihu Coleman, who was
United States district attorney under Harri-
son, and who is q member of the church
and superintendent of the Sunday school.
Pastor Clark followed this with the state
ment that no man had a right to be a
millionaire. Several men who are rated as
millionaires belong to the congregation, and
have called Bishop Joyce from Tennessee
to suppress the too Jealous preacher.
Chicago Herald: Three hundred colored
people were baptized in the icy waters of a
creek near Springfield, o., last Sunday. The
converts were of both sexes and of various
ages. Some of them, presumably, were not
in vigorous health. 1t will be surprising
if some of these people shall not have their
lives shortened by the experience. They
were protected from the cold water and
the freezing atmosphere by the thinnest
of garments. They had no opportunity of
putting on dry, warm clothes at once. They
were inviting pneumonia, bronchitis and kim
dred diseases. This performance savors
strongly of tomfoolery. There is no religion
about it. 1t is a form of crazy fanaticism
that goes beyond the faith cure in its NOR
tuary possibilities. If the authorities of the
colored Baptist church do not see the folly
and the danger of it the law might properly
be invoked to bring them to their senses.
There is no room in this country for homi-
eide under the guise of religious. emo

DON'T DO IT.

anon. .f
give years TO watt" Don't do it,
My innocent blue-eyed maid,
For the years may last a lifetime,
While your youthful roses fade,
While your eyes are red with weeping
And watching the t~reacheroQs sea;
Till you sing the song of the lone one
"He never came back to me-
Five years to wait, while others
Are dancing the dance of youth,
And the one perhaps you are trusting
Is breaking his vows forsooth.
81 shall wait for my love, my darling,
Who has sailed far Oven the sea,
Five years, or ten or twenty
Said the blue-eyed maid to me.
So she wrote her sweet love letters,
Or tended her garden flowers,
Or watched the restless pillows
on the b~eetling cliff for hours;
While she turned her suitors pining
Away from the cottage door,
And waited, patiently waited,
one long, long year or more.
"''Tis very weary waiting
Said the blue-eyed maid to me-,
And she glanced at her last new sutton
And then at the restless sea,
AS she glanced at the roses fading
In her garden fair and bright;
Twice come, twice gone since he left her
Two years before that night.
And she married her last new sutton
Before the winter sped:
And she wrote to her absent lover
on the day that she was wed;
"She hoped he would not suffer,
That the shock would soon be o'er,'
And the answer soon informed her
He had married Il year before!

those only who can pass a prescribed physi-
cal examination at the time Of taking out n
policy. and thus take chances only upon
future inroads upon the health Of the in
surod. We often hear of men with weakly
constitutions living to advanced years, but
the fates are all against them. The super
structure should be built upon a firm founda-
ton. To this extent old age is an Inherit
able attribute.
There viii be more inclination to dispute
Mr.. Fields second condition. People are apt
to regard work as exhausting and excessive
work as the pace that kills. "Hard work,
my young friend" says MIR. Field, never
killed any one. 1dleness has slain its
thousands" Stated in this bold form, the
rule is no doubt too rigid. The real sub
stance which it contains is this. that some
steady work is necessary to keep men from
destroying themselves by enervating diver
sions. The brain becomes active from use
and the muscles grow stronger with temper,
ate e%Xertion. The fear Of overwork is merely
an illusion. The danger from idleness and
the train of followers which it leads is much
the greater of the two and is one of the
chief dangers that threaten the attainment
of old age.
Mr.. Field insists that exercise has helped
him wonderfully. He has never allowed a
day Of his life to pass-hot, cold, wet, dry
without walking several miles in the open
air. Cabs and street cars he cannot abide.
AS for eating ana drinking, he says he has
no especial rule. He takes what he likes
and let's the rest alone and has found that
policy to have agreed with him. The need
Of regular exercise follows from what has
been said concerning The necessity of a good
constitution. A constitution is kept in good
condition by means of exercise; it rapidly
deteriorates when left uncared for. Where
the line should be drawn is a matter which
each person usually decides for himself,
many maintaining that it is the regularity
rather than the amount of exercise which is
helpful. Whether that regularity should be
extended into a diet is a question upon
which there is considerable disagreement
with Mr.. Field. Gladstone is said to regu-
late his meals and food with mathematical
precision, while other noted men have
Even Mr.. Field would acknowledge that
there are things which it is best to avoid ana a
little experimenting will soon show the am
bilious what they are in his case. There is
no royal road to healthy old age any more
than there is to wealth. Yet the conditions
emphasized by Mr.. Field afford some valu-
able hints to be utilized on the way.

LUXURES AND REVENUE.

The internal revenue statistics furnish in
teresting and instructive facts bearing on
the question of taxing articles in general use
not now taxed, and increasing the tax on
certain articles designated as l~uxurles. The
statistics show that in the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1898, there was a decrease of less
than $780, 900 in the revenue from the tax
on smoking and chewing tobacco, as COM
pared with the preceding year, and an in
crease of $3.50, 900 in the revenue from the
tax on cigars. 1t would appear from this
that during the last fiscal year the ten
dency was to smoke the more expensive
cigar In preference to the cheaper pipe.
The beginning of the financial stringency
was just before the close of the fiscal year
of 1893, and the effect of the hard times
was shown by a falling off of nearly 81, 1OO,-
900 during the first quarter of the current
fiscal year in the revenue from smoking
and chewing tobacco, and of $3.50, 900 in
that from cigars. In the same period the
revenue from cigarettes increased nearly
500, 600, showing that the cigarette was
substituted for the cigar to a considerable
extent, The large falling OFF in the revenue
from smoking and chewing tobacco is good
evidence of the stringency of the times, a
large proportion Of the unemployed work
ingmen having been compelled to give up
their tobacco or to use much less than
formerly.
The revenue derived from the beer tax
was nearly 81, 500, 900 more than for the
previous year, and during the hard times
of the first quarter of the current fiscal
year the revenue from this source increased
nearly $4,000. showing that despite the
general depression there was no dlminution
in beer drinking. AS to distilled spirits
the statistics show that during the year
ended June 80, 1898, the aggregate put into
bond was $4,000, 900 gallons more than dur
ing the preceding year, and in the first
quarter Of the current fiscal year there was
also an increase in the output, though it
was not so large as for the corresponding
period Of 1892. 1t seems that regardless of
the times or other conditions distilling goes
on without cessation or limitation. The
suggestion OF these facts is that while in
crsasiRI the tobacco tax would probably

David Dudley Field, who has just entered
hale and hearty upon the ninetieth year of
a long and eventful career, when asked not
long ago to what he ascribed the preserya.
ton of his health and the attainment of so
advanced an age, replied that he laid it to
three things, First. a good constitution.
Second, hard work, Third. regular daily ex-
ercise. II we can take the experience of
this sturdy lawyer as our guide these are
the conditions Of old age, and while there
may be exceptions to the general rule. they
will hold good in the great majority of indl-
yidual instances.

1t is perfectly proper to appeal to the
Weather residents of Omaha for further con
tributions to the funds necessary for the
prosecution of the work of poor relief, and II
is no more than right that the amount OF
their contributions should be conditioned
by the size of their incomes and the strength
of their local pride, as well as by their
purely philanthropic impulses, But it is of
doubtful propriety for any soliciting com
mittee to tell one man that he must give so
much because some one else has given such
a sum. Compulsory charity loses its char
acter as charity. The people of Omaha may
be relied upon to respond to every legitimate
and reasonable demand for their cooperation
with the organizations now d~evoting them
selves to the relief of the poor. They will do
this voluntarily, however, whenever the eX-
igencies of the circumstances are brought to
their attention.

The death of William +, Poole, librarian OF
the Newberry library at Chicago, removes a
man who has been identified in a great de-
gree with the great strides that have been
made in the management of public Libraries
in tho United States. Mr.. Poole's name is
most intimately associated by library pat
rons with an index to periodical literature
which has saved them many a weary hour
of laborious research by helping them to find
exactly what they We're seeking, Mr., Poole's
work, Of course, redounded chiefly to the
benefit of Chicago, but the whole country
will feel his loss.

power Of congress 70 legislate upon questions
Of legal tender, interstate commerce, taxation
and so forth. The states rights element
would like to get immediate control Of the
supreme court to reverse all these important
decisions, to accomplish in this way what
IT failed to attain by rebellion. Renewal of
the supreme court by the process now in
force Is too slow to satisfy its eagerness for
This result. The people must be awakened
to the danger which threatens the independ-
ence of their judges and through this indie
pendence the continued supremacy of the
nation over the states. The independence Of
the judiciary is to be guaranteed by the
preservation of the life tenure.

On the twentieth page OF this paper we
present an illustrated description of the
type-setting machine plant which has been
in active operation in the composing room
of The Bee during the past month. All
the type work for this paper, saving alone
the headlines and display advertising, is
done by these machines, and the plant OF
twelve machines is not taxed to it's full
capacity. At some future day we shall
take pleasure in extending an invitation to
such of our patrons as may be interested
in the marvellous mechanism of the limo
type machines to visit our composing room
when they are in full operation.

not result in any Increase Of revenue Il
may be regarded as certain that a higher
tax on whisky and beer would not check
consumption and would yield considerably
more revenue
a moderate tax ON tea and coffee has been
urged, but the proposition has not received
any consideration in congress. nor is 1t
likely to do SO. None the less. these arti-
Giles could be made a source Of considerable
revenue, and It has been suggested that II
they could be brought under as strict super
vision as are beer and whisky an internal
revenue tax would be somewhat OF a bless
ing to consumers. During the last fiscal
year there were imported into the United
States S,i3l, OSS pounds Of tea and $50,
246, 1893 pounds of coffee. This would give
each inhabitant 1888 pounds Of tea and S.5
pounds Of coffee during the year. In the
previous fiscal year. ending June 30, 1892,
the consumption per capita was somewhat
larger. but 1t is to be expected that for the
current fiscal year It will be less. 1t ap.
pears from a comparison of records for
twenty-five years that the consumption OF
coffee per capita has increased much more
rapidly than that of tea. A tax on these
articles would undoubtedly be unpopular,
for even If it should not have the effect to
increase the price it would operate as an
incentive to adulteration. There is a strong
feeling in congress and outside Of it that
whisky and beer should be subjected to the
highest rate of taxation consistent with
obtaining the largest revenue from these
sources-that is, that the tax should only
stop short of the point where 1t would
operate to reduce consumption.
