That is a question Of very great in
terest to Venezuela and which II is un-
derstoOd is receiving attention at Wash
lngton. It was stated some days ago
that our government would urge the
European governments to call OF the
blockade during the progress Of the
arbitration proceedings, so hat trade
with Venezuela could go on. 1t is said
that the Venezuelan government will
ask this and in that event ii should
have the support of the United States.
There is a considerable m be-
tween this country and the southern re
public and there seems to be no good
reason why it should not be allowed
to be carried on without interference
while arbitration proceedings are in
progress.
There is nothing in the constitution
Of The Hague tribunal that bears upon
the question Of calling of the blockade,
but 1t appears a most reasonable conclu-
sion that when the allies take their case
to the international court for a peace
able settlement they should end the
warlike demonstration they are making
in Venezuelan waters. This is due to
the interests Of neutral nations, which
are entitled to consideration and 1t
could do no injury to the allies. Our
government should make an earnest et-
fort to have the blockade raised as soon
as the terms and conditions OF the ar
bitration are settled.

NEBRASKA AT THE HEAD.
Jumps from Seventh to First Place In
n Census Computation.
Boston Transcript.

DOSlon 1ThHSCTlpl.
The tables from the advance sheets of
the new census, showing the percentages
Of literacy Of those persons between 10 and
IA years of age in the various states and
territories of the Union are interesting and
instructive. Nebraska stands at the head
years ago she was seventh, Iowa being first
and Massachusetts second. Now Iowa is
second and Massachusetts, ninth, yet this
state has advanced from 99.17 in 1890 to
99.33 in 1900. This is certainly a record of
which we need not be ashamed when we
consider how strongly urban as we'll as
manufacturing is this state In character,
and a gateway of immigration, thus offer
ing strong inducements to many newly ar
rived and ignorant foreigners to remain
here, while the more rural and agricultural
states have a natural advantage in this re-
spect. The owest in the scale is Louisiana,
with a record Of 67.12, but even there a
hopeful gain has been effected, as the per-
centage in 1890 was only 57.26. South Caro-
lima and Alabama come next in order, reck-
oning from the bottom, though both have
made gains. New Mexico, which has been
knocking for admission to statehood for
many years, stands above at least three OF
the thirteen original states, so she can
hardly be kept out on the ground of ignor-
ance. The hopeful thing about these ng-
ures is that almost every state is showing
an advance in literacy, most OF them
already rating high.

MAKE OMAHA A GRAIN MARKET.

For years The Bee has constantly adj
vocated a movement that would make
Omaha a grain market Of the same class
as Kansas City, st. Paul and Mime
apolis. That this city is so situated to
the corn and wheat-produclng country
as to make 1t the natural outlet for the
products of a vast agricultural territory
is plainly apparent to every one. In the
last few years Nebraska has become as
much of a wheat state as 1t has been n
corn state, and If only half Of the grain
shipped out of Nebraska alone were mar
keted in this city we would soon build
up a grain industry Of imposing proper
tons. The time, therefore, seems more
suspicious than ever for making a grain
market here which in a short time
would give Omaha the same rank as a
grain center that 1t now holds as a meat
packing point.
With a grain market In Omaha we
would o o have grain elevators, big
Touring and cereal mills, starch factories
and a host Of smaller institutions work
ing up b~y-products that would eventu-
ally give employment to thousands Of
wage workers. That there are obstacles
in the way Of accomplishing this purpose
goes without saying, but there is no good
reason why, with a concerted effort on
the part Of all u business men, these
obstacles should not be surmounted here
as they have been in rival places and
the year 1908 made notable by Omaha's
advent into the list OF grain market
cities.

The room of the committee on pensions is
called the deadhouse since the last battle
between the republicans and the democrats.
There we're more casualties in that com
mittee than in any other. Congressman
Walter Reeves of Illinois is the chairman
and as the committee has but little business
pending before II the chairman did not have
a chance to count up the dead until he
called a meeting Just before the Christmas
| vacation. Then Mr.. Reeves discovered that
! over half Of the committee had fallen in the
struggle. Eight OF its members will not
answer roll call in the Fifty-eighth con-
gress. Mr.. Reeves himself refused a nom
~ination for reelection, having determined to
return to his law practice. CoTliss OF Mich
igan, Tompkins OF New York, Jack OF Penn
sylvania, Lewis OF Pennsylvania, Irwin OF
Kentucky, Rhea Of Kentucky and Mutchier
OF Pennsylvania were all defeated. 1T GER
