COST OF TIE GoYERNMENT.

While the few appropriation bills
still pending may cause a slight diff
ference in the amount allowed by con-
gress for the annual expenses Of gov
eminent, It will be approximately
5000, 100000, exceeding that for any
other fiscal year in our history. The
average annual national expenses
now by far exceed the highest point
reached during the civil war, which
then seemed to threaten the country
with bankruptcy.
In almost every direction there
have been imperative demands for
larger appropriations for the new ifs
cal year which begins July /, large
as were the necessities for the cur
rent fiscal year. Not extravaganza,
but the amazing growth of the coun-
try and the requirements for service
which public opinion has put upon the
government, are the cause, and 1t is
significant that throughout the con-
sideration of the supply bill the oppo-
sition, always especially eager to seize
points OF partisan advantage when the
congressional elections are coming on,
has not raised the cry of wasteful and
excessive expenditure, but on the con-
trary has Joined in the demand for
services which call for increased
expense. The growth of the postal
department, particularly in the vast
expansion Of rural delivery, and the
enlarged meat inspection, involving a
cost OF 100000, are illustrations
Of national development compelling
larger provision of funds.
1t has not been long since appro-
priations OF only about one-half the
amount allowed at this session was
made the chief basis of partisan in
dictment against the republican party
with such effect that General Harrison
was defeated for reelection and the
democratic party given control of the
house OF representatives. But it Is
recognized now in all parties that the
government OF a country expanding at
such a rate as ours cannot meet the
needs of public service without CORE
spending expense. The very magni-
tude OF private and corporation opera
tons of which the people have be-
come accustomed the last ten years
has disarmed the popular prejudice
which cutlery against "the billion dol
lar congress" once excited.
The fact remains. Notwithstanding
the increase of expenses and the vast
total required to state them. that the
treasury will almost certainly be able
to meet them out of current revenues
and still have a comfortable surplus at
the end of the ensuing fiscal year.

PRosErUr1Ne az powERFUL.

The decision TO concentrate the en-
ergies OF the administration in a pros
ecutlon of the Standard Oil and Penn
sylvania Central for alleged violations
Of the law is altogether characteristic
of President Roosevelt. The fact that
they are the two greatest and most
powerful corporations in the country,
far from lettering, rather moves him
to select them in Joining the issue
whether great corporations shall be
superior or subject to the law.
The investigations of Commissioner
Garfield and the Interstate Commerce
commission and other developments
have put the Department of Justice
in possession OF evidence deemed suffi-
Client to secure conviction of these
giant concerns which have so long
been beyond reach of the law. 1t
would not have been so serious to at
tack corporation offenders less in
fluentlal and formidable. The mere
time server would have taken that
course, and public authority has been
too much in such hands.
President Roosevelt from the be-
ginning of his administration has dem
onstrated his resoluteness and courage
by directing the powers of the govern
ment against formidable law violators,
as the prosecutions of the Northern
Securities, Tobacco, Paper, Chemical
and Meat trusts signally show, and
most valuable results in court decis-
ions, publicity and stimulation of pub
lie sentiment have already been Sc
cured. But, II in addition to the vast
progress that has thus been attained,
the two mighty corporate aggrega-
tions with which the government has
now grappled are brought to book and
the penalties of the law inflicted, the
crisis of the great battle will have
been passed. 1t will be accepted as
the conclusive sign that the day has
come when the laws are made to be
obeyed by the great corporation com
bine as well as by the ordinary cfti-
zen, and this is precisely the purpose
which the president has more than
once publicly declared the paramount
! need of our time.

OMAHA AND NEBRASKA.

Taking it's text from this interview,
which appeared recently in The Bee,
'Mr. Rosewater's candidacy offers the
only hope of keeping the senatorship
in Omaha and Douglas county and
do not believe the republicans here
want to help the game of the state
against Omaha by splitting the Doug
las delegation" the Fremont Tribune,
which boasts itself the chief sponsor
Of the Kearney candidate for senator,
declares:
This kind Of argument may be good
enough logic to feed the Omahogs, but it is
not the kind that the republicans of Ne
braska will relish, especially since Omaha
has had senator all the time, and two Of
them part Of the time ever since the ter
ritory Of Nebraska was admitted into the
union thirty-nne years ago.
The issue is being fairly drawn. 1t is
Omaha against the state once more, just
as it has been for nearly two score years.
VIII the people of this state permit the tail
to continue to wag the dog?
1t is true that the boosters of the
kearney candidate are trying to draw
this issue, but there is no more reason
why the game should be the state
against Omaha than that it should be
the state against Kearney, or the state
against Fremont. If Fremont hap
pened to be the residence of an emil
nent Nebraskan overtowering all COM
petitOrs ais place Of residence surely
should not handicap him. II the same
man happened to live in Omaha,
neither should he be debarred. Let
us ask how this argument would work
If the Kearney candidate should move
to Omaha. Would his Fremont cham
pion then be trying to array the state
against Omaha?
OF course no sensible person takes
any stock in such efforts to prejudice
Omaha with the rest of the state. The
fact that Omaha has been the home of
one senator since Nebraska was ad-
mitted into the Union is not pertinent.
The same is true of nearly all of the
states which boast of a great metro
politan city and the reason is that the
large commercial interests of the state
center there rather than in some small
town or village. While Omaha has
had one Of the senatorships, it has sell
dom had anything else in the way of
party honors never having been ac-
corded a governor at the hands of the
republicans and but few minor state
offices.
The question is not particularly one
OF location, but rather who by reason
OF ability and experience can serve Ne
braska best as senator, and who is
most closely in touch with all the
varied interests to be represented-th
people as a whole rather than any
small geographical area or any special
interest or group of special interests

PURE FOOD AND INSPECTION BILLS


Examination discloses the fact that
the meat inspection and pure food
bills as they passed both branches of
congress before going to conference
contain numerous inconsistent and
conflicting provisions which may later
cause much trouble If finally passed
or serious litigation If not removed
The pure food bill, while covering a
far wider range, includes also the
same subject matter as the meat in
spection bill, both providing elaborate
but different systems of inspection.
Under the former. the secretaries Of
agriculture, treasury and commerce
are Jointly to make regulations
and control inspection, but under the
latter the secretary of agriculture
alone is clothed with such authority.
and, 1t is pointed out. the require
ments of the two statutes are such
that 1t will be impossible to harmonic

The pay of the postmaster at Omaha
has been lifted from $1,000 to $4,000
a year, which will doubtless be a well
come raise to the present incumbent.
The significance OF the change, how
ever, is found in the fact that post
masters salaries are graded according
to the business done in the once and
the increase in salary represents an
increase in the amount OF postage can
celled at Omaha. The postofice could
not cancel more postage stamps except
for the growth of our local business
institutions, which send out the mail.
For all of these reasons Omaha can
claim credit mark for itself as well
