Rev. Conrad Huber, of ST. Paul S
Lutheran church, is we'll acquainted
with Rev. Haas, who lost his family
in the awful New York disaster. Rev.
Huber said:
''It will be a matter of sad in
terest to the Lutherans Of Richmond
to know that Rev. DR.. Haas, pastor
of st. Marks Lutheran church Of
New York, whose Sunday school met
with such distressing calamity, lost
his entire family by this accident.
DR.. Haas is very prominent member
Of the General Council. He has re-
Gently been elected to the presidency
of Muhlenberg College. He is in ev-
cry respect most estimable Christian
gentleman. In the recent General
Conference that was held at Pitts
burg, Pa, he took a very active part.
While he is comparatively young
man, nevertheless he is regarded as
one of the leaders of the General
Council, and highly esteemed among
Lutherans generally. Let the prayers
of Gods people go up in his behalf

$4,000 has been put into the treasury
of Wayne county and they have
placed about 100000 on the dupli-

in this case for fifteen years. The

White is better able to make a living
than thsy are, SO the estate is
equally divided between the four

CoRBIN VERSUS CUPID.
Former Talks Ont Loud, the Latter
Winks and Wins.


General Corbin has taken the field
against General Cupid and is likely to get
licked. Cupid always has ranked Mars.
General Corbin recommends that no army
officer be allowed to marry until he has
shown the secretary of war that he is
able to support a wife. The secretary
knows, or ought to know, the pay roll by
heart II he says that n second lieutenant
on s., 400 a year and allowances has no bus
mess with wife. he is saying what Is
tantamount to a declaration that the vast
majority OF male American citizens ought
to be keeping bachelors hall
II the War department adopts General
Corbin's recommendation II will have to
issue an order that no young woman Wis
itors be allowed at West Point during the
summer season. II this isn't done the
young graduate officers being wfeless may
not get into the debtors court, but there
will be shoulder knots In every breach Of
promise court in the land.
The married man ordinarily is the steady
man. Why shouldn't second lieutenant
get married? His pay is 81, 400 a year. After
he has been out of the academy year he
gets 10 per cent additional. Medical attend
ance for himself and wife and children II
he has any, costs him not a cent. He gets
house rent free. He can buy food at cost
price at the commissary. All this puts him
on a pecuniary par with the civilian whose
salary is $1,000 a year. Most OF our fathers
and grandfathers married our mothers and
grandmothers on half this amount. II there
had been a civilian Corbin with power in
those days the vote would not be large at
the coming election,
Some Of the banks have made a rule that
employees shall not marry until they are
earning 81. 400 a year. The directors think
this amount should meet household ex-
penses and that the clerk would not be
tempted TO increase his pay dishonesty,
No army oficer receives an amount as
small as this. Let him get married and be
happy. The Secretary OF War may sane
ton the Corbin recommendation, but love
and woman will find a way.

THE AMERIcAN WoRKINGMAN.

How does the American workingman
in any other land to which his condi-
tion can properly be compared? The
question is one of the most vital in
terest and ought to command the in
ers who are the bone and sinew of the
Industrial system of the nation.
1t is a question of the highest i'm
portance as to whether the great labor
stantly employed or not Everybody
understands what is meant by idleness
for millions of people, such as we had
in the period from 1893 to 1897. Those
who remember that period OF industrial
depression and disaster will hardly be
in favor of a policy which would have
the effect of creating in the country an
other such experience. Is 1t necessary
to go over that epoch in our history /?
Can anybody need to have retold the
record of the most extraordinary chap
ter in the devastation of our industrial
and commercial experience? No, 1t is
too familiar Everybody who has at
tained to manhood in the meantime is
familiar with all the facts and does
not need any further informa ton. The
recollection of the soup house and of
other means of caring for the INDECENT,
which was everywhere in evidence in
the country. is still in the public mind.
That American workingmen will heed
the lesson of the four years that pre-
ceded the election of Mckinley is al
most foregone conclusion.

THE pEMocRArrc STILL HUNT.

The campaign for the restoration OF
democracy to supreme power in national
affairs is conceded TO be forlorn hope
by the ablest politicians Of all parties.
The election of Theodore Roosevelt by
the largest popular majority that has
ever been secured by any candidate for
the presidency Is practically assured. All
that the democratic leaders are now
aiming to accomplish is the election of
democratic congraas To this end all
.heir energies are bent. BY a precon.
certed understanding democratic man
ayers are carrying on still hunt in
every debatable congressional district.
In this method Of stealthy campaigning
they are only repeating the tactics by
which they succeeded in capturing the
lower house of congress in several pre-
vious campaigns, notably in the cam
paign Of 1890, when, through indiffer-
ence and lack Of organization, the dem
ocrats elected decisive majority of the
members in the lower house of congress.
In view of the fact that the republic
ans controlled the last congress by a
comparatively narrow margin the demo-
cratic managers are making desperate
efforts to gain control of the house in
order 10 handicap the inevita bic, the
Roosevelt administration. In spite of
all efforts to mask their movements, 1t
is well known that the democratic still
hunt is being carried on in New York,
New Jersey, Maryland. Illinois, Wiscon-
sin. Minnesota and last, but not least, in
Nebraska. The warning sounded by
Speaker Cannon during his tour Of Ne
braska is by no means a false alarm,
and It behooves Nebraska republicans in
every congressional district to be wary
and keep a sharp lookout along the
picket line.

AS TO SYNDICATE PARK.


In commenting upon the proposed
issue of park bonds by South Omaha
reference was made by The Bee to Syn
dicate park under misapprehension of
the facts. An examination of the rec
ords shows that Syndicate park has
never been dedicated to the public, al
though the lands surrounding the park
were sold with the distinct understand
ing that the park would be maintained
as plated on the original chart of Syn
dicate addition to South Omaha.
1t appears also that Syndicate park
has been treated as a private park from
the outset and taxes have been levied
and collected from the owners for each
year since 1880. These taxes we find
aggregate for fifteen years the sum of
$13,607.55, of which $6,51O.OS represents
state and county taxes and $7,O97.47
municipal taxes of South Omaha. Under
these conditions the proposed purchase
of the lands would be perfectly legiti-
mate If the people of South Omaha de-
sired TO have the park thrown open to
the public and maintained as public
park.
incidentally it may be appropriate for
The Bee to make its position clear with
regard to the proposed South Omaha
bond issues. The Bee has always re-
garded South Omaha as a part of Omaha
and will continue to do so whether the
| governments of the two cities are con-
solidated or not. The Bee has always
been in favor Of public improvements
and all enterprises that tend to promote
the growth and prosperity of South
Omaha just the same as If these enter
prises and improvements were made in
Omaha. 1t has never interposed objec-
tons to the issue Of bonds for the cree
tion of viaducts, public school buildings,
the construction of sewers or the paving
and grading OF streets in South Omaha,
nor has it any desire to interpose any
obstruction or objection TO any other
improvements proposed for South
Omaha, If convinced that they are
needed by that community and will be
carried out In good faith.
The Bee opposed the scheme to bridge
the Missouri river between South Omaha
and Lake Manawa because II regarded
the project as fake gotten up TO make
political capital for Dave Mercer. AL
though the bill chartering this bridge
passed through congress and was signed
by the president the sequel proved the
enterprise to be just what The Bee had
represented It, The Bee has taken po-
sition against the proposed issue of
100000 of city hall bonds because IT
believes that 1t will needlessly increase
the tax burdens OF South Omaha, al
though il may prove profitable to pro-
moters' land Spectators and real estate
dealers. And this would be its position
| whether the governments Of Omaha and

| Baltimore American.
For the first time in the history of repub-

Ex-senator Davis declares himself a pro-

| on coal at this time is not sufficient to stop
| injurious Importation. which has assisted
| toward the lamentable result of closing

OF miners out OF employment.
| Ex-senator Davis is a plain-spoken man.
| who deals plainly with plain facts which
stare him in the face at his own door. II
| he were a student OF national industries, as

realize that the condition which applies to
| coal applies in larger or lesser degree to
every other industry which is affected by
the policy which Mr.. Davis admits is wise.
| and which in his own case does not reach
| far enough to meet the situation. Judge
| Parker is not a business man. For long
years he has merely been factor to decide

Another Triumph for Arbitration.

1t was not from choice that the anthra-

arbitration OF disputes with the miners,
and the reason has been growing more APP
