If the big shippers are getting rates
at a little below cost It is a certainty
that the smaller shippers are paying
for 1t, as the railroads can no more
afford to do business at a loss than
any other institution, and 1t is to the
interest of the small shipper as well
as the common public to see that
there is an averaging up that will get
justice for the small man. The rail

The democrats of Nebraska who
are trying for a non-partisan move
ment in favor of eliminating the state
government from railroad control
have no doubt been attracted to that
position by the element of the re-
publican party that has been working
in that direction. They imagine that
such an idea as nonpartisanship
might be used in making berths for
some of their deserving politicians,
but they need not anticipate success.

II has been but three years since
congress passed the irrigation law
and already one gigantic project is
partially completed and others are in
course of construction. Thousands of
acres of arid lands in the west are
being made productive and fruitful
and the work is but fairly begun. In
time it is hoped that every acre of
ground that can be reached by water
from streams or reservoirs will be
made into sources of wealth for the
people of the country and paying their
tribute to the government. In view
of what has been done and may be
accomplished with these lands il is
surprising that nation as progres.
sive as this should have so long de.
layed a movement of such great i'm
portance. Now that it has fairly be-
gun on the irrigation policy, however,
II is to be expected that II will con-
tinue until all that can be accom-.
plished along that line is done, and
that will be program contemplating
years OF effort. II is a government
investment that should be paid back
by the settlers with interest and leave
large value TO the homesteaders.

The New York World is convinced
that there can be no successful mu.
nicipal ownership of public utilities
under the present system of govern
ment. 1t does not require much to
convince prejudiced person, and
such a statement would seem to prove
that the writer was very much pre-
JUDGED. The assertion that a munic-
ipality cannot hold title to property
the same as an individual, company or
corporation and make it win, is not
against the law or the municipality as
much as it is against the party or
people that permit the rule of graft
to an extent that makes municipal
ownership seem impracticable if not
impossible. 1t is not fault of the
laws or the system of government
but there must be higher standards
of citizenship producing honorable Of
ficials. When the citizens insist on
honest and honorable officials and ev.
erything belonging TO the public is
not considered legitimate field Of
graft the time will come when munic-
ipal ownership will be successful in
the same degree as any other mu.
tual undertaking. Because municipal
ownership has not always proven prof
table is not an argument that it
cannot be made so.

Some of the leading democrats are
urging in behalf of non-partisanship

Roosevelt for the presidency They
are to be commended for that, cer-
tainly, but they did not do so in favor
of non-partisanship They accepted
Mr.. Roosevelt as "the best of two
evils" as some of them have expressed
it and the republicans of Nebraska
will not feel obliged to use the same
tactics until similar conditions are
forced upon them. The republicans
hope, during the next campaign, to
name a ticket that will meet the ap-
proval of the democrats as heartily
as did their last national ticket and
if the democrats will then support it
the republicans will agree to tread
very lightly on democratic feelings,
and when the state is as near to be-
ing unanimous as the nation was dur.

to be very little partisanship, and

Kansas farmers have placed their
requirements for farm hands during
the harvesting and thrashing of their
crops at $4,000. The season will last
for about sixty days and the wages
will be from $1.75 to $3.50 per day.
After Kansas is through with the
men, Nebraska will offer employment
to a great many of them and then
their services will be required in the
Dakotas and Minnesota. 1t is diff
cult to estimate how many men are
available for the work, but the col
leges and schools will probably con-
tribute a good many, and the wages
are sufficient, it would seem, to at
tract all that are needed from their
various walks in life. The time has
been when such an announcement
would no sooner be made than the
farmers would have been buried in
applications, but it is not believed
that such will be the result this year

PUBLIC OPINION.
Editor N NEWS:

Editor EVENING NEWS:
Having witnessed the contest be-
tween Charles Morgan and James
Manley, at Philadelphia, Thanksgiv-
ing Day, | wish, in the interests OF
fair play, to state that the account
of the fight as given in the daily
press gives a very wrong impression
of the go. The unexplained action
of Referee McGuiggan in stopping
the contest in the middle of the Sec
ond round, after Morgan had acct
dentally slipped to the floor, Is con.
demned by all fair-minded specta.
tors who witnessed the go whether
interested or disinterested, and it is
the opinion of many that it was moi
on the cards for Morgan to win.
Morgan was not knocked off his
feet at any time during the contest
and it looked very much as though
only the peculiar action of the ref
cree saved Manley from a beating
as he appeared to be none too fresh
at the conclusion of the first round
Morgan is ready to NEE Manley a
any time or place, and feels certain
that he can justify his friends opin,
ion Of him and prove to the satisfac
ton Of all concerned that Manley ha:
no chance with him and that nothing
but the rankest kind of robbery was
responsible for Manley's getting the
verdict in their last battle.
