MR.. BRYAN AT LONDON

In his Fourth of July address in
London on The White Mans Burden
Mr.. Bryan was good-natured and con-
siderate enough 80 recommend only
what everybody favors, or at least only
for what it is customary for everybody
in public to declare his favor. 1t is not
the easiest thing in the world for an
American, whose words will be closely
scanned as in the case of Mr.. Bryan,
on the pre-eminent day of national
or to confine himself to sentiments
which will pass muster in a foreign
presence, particularly If it be British
presence. 1t is obvious that Mr.. Bryan
took no little pains in sorting over his
bomilies for such material.
Nevertheless, apart from the mere
matter of convenience, it may be well
occasionally to emphasize, as Mr..
Bryan does, the duty of altruism on
the part of the robust, aggressive and
progressive western nations in dealing
with the decadent or inferior peoples
in other parts of the world with whom
they are coming every day into more
direct and intimate relations. 1t all
comes down to right rather than might
as the true rule. In point of fact,
however, we Americans have not made
so good fist of it the last three cen
turtles in dealing with the Indian and
the negro as to be in very good position
to lecture white mankind in general.
In all such situations it is generally
deemed prudent not to come within
gun shot of anything practical as Mr..
Bryan was politely careful to do in
drawing plans and specifications for
his London performance.

DISTRIBUTING THE DIRECT PRIMARY.
The worst feature of the rotation"
ballot outrage inflicted upon the voters
of Douglas county in their primary
election is that 1t is sure to discTedit
the direct primary and to operate as
reform, not only here, but throughout
the state.
The object of direct primary legisla-
ton is to bring the choice of party
abling the rank and file of each party
to express themselves as between as
pirants for. nomination. If the direct
primary can be twisted around and dis
torted so as to defeat It's very object
and confuse and disfranchise the voters
rather than to help them register their
will, advocates of direct primary legis-
lation will get cold shoulder when
they appear before the legislature to
urge their plan upon representatives Of
other counties and especially of rural
districts.
The direct primary is in a great
deal more danger from its false friends
than it is from it's open enemies. If
the people are disguised with it where
it is tried. those who are reluctant
about making an experiment will be
all the more apprehensive about 1t and
those who have opposed it constantly
will have another club put in their
hands to help them beat 1t back. In
word the direct primary law. which
in Nebraska was enacted for Douglas
county alone in order to prove its
beneficence to the remainder of the
state, is in danger of having exactly
the opposite effect, not because OF any
inherent defects. but because of per-
verted application.

PACKING HOUSES NOT THE WORST.

PACKING HOUSES NOT THE WORST.
Immense as will be the improvement
in meat food resulting from the new
believing 1t will be a small part of the
aggregate benefits flowing from the
agitation in which it originated. since
public opinion and authority are now
turning with equal rigor towards the
processes of manufacture and handling
all the common foods.
The very first move of the Chicago
sanitary inspection service to in
quire into the bakeries has dis
closed conditions which rival the
abuses found in the packing industry
there. 1t demonstrates that in the
bread and pastry supply the various
unsanitary practices and surroundings
which startled the public in the official
report of the Chicago packing plants
are duplicated so that sweeping re-
forms have already been ordered and
are to be enforced by the local authori-
ties which in large part have exclusive
jurisdiction of this trade.
Equally bad conditions as to filth
and revolving methods and materials
are said to exist in the preparation OF
many other food articles of common
consumption, some of which are wholly
or mainly outside of the domain OF ma
| tional authority, and against which
therefore the public must depend for
protection upon state and local au-
thority.
The real value of the meat inspec-
ton agitation accordingly is the i'm
petus given to demand for publicity
concerning the whole subject and for
sweeping reforms over the whole field
of food supply. There is already q
pronounced disposition of the public
mind that the meat packing conditions
were made TO appear pre-eminently bad
only because they were first exposed
and that the publicity given them has
already produced salutary reforms in
many other fields.

NATURALIZATION LAW.
Some Restrictions Based on Language
Knowledge.

knowledge.
Philadelphia Record.
With some excellent features the natural
ization bill has gone to the president for
approval with she provision that no for
eigner who cannot speak English shall be
admitted to American citizenship. The
knowledge OF the language of a country is
of course, very useful; but II is absurd 20
pretend that a man cannot be a good cti-
zen without such attainment. There are
mills in Pittsburg in which the English
language is hardly heard spoken once in a
week. How are the forelgn-born work
men in these mills to acquire sufficient
knowledge OF English to qualify themselves
for American citizenship Many foreign
born inhabitant familiar with all the learn
ing Of the sages has been at war with
the kings English all his life, but he can
not be admitted to citizenship under this
bill with a glib fellow who has learned to
talk English like a parrot
Not much more than a generation ago a
language known as Pennsylvania Dutch
was alone spoken or understood I'm some

ship? That is what some of their degen-
crate descendants seem to think The other
day the house passed a bill to admit into
the union the territory of New Mexico
most of whose native inhabitants are 50
ignorant of the English language that in.
terpreters are required in all official anil
judicial proceedings. But in the estimation
Of the house that passed this naturalization
bill the New Mexicans, who are totally
innocent Of English. possess complete quail
fications for citizenship, while Italians and
Hungarians are to be debarred from nat
uralization II they have not been able to
acquire the art of speaking English The
truth is that this provision springs from tho
same spirit of nativism that dictated tho
anti-immigration bill that has fallen in the
house of its friends

The United States treasury closes the
fiscal year with a surplus of S25.OoO,OCO. as
against a deficit a year ago OF almost the
same proportions. The increase in Gus
toms receipts largely accounts for the diff
ference. exceeding as they do those of the
preceding fiscal year by $4OOoO,OOo. Internal
revenue receipts have been S17,OoO.OoO more

When the decision was handed down
at the instigation of the Fontanelles
inficting the voters with the rotation
ballot, The Bee pointed out the only
remedy within reach, which was to re-
sent the outrage and rebuke its per-
petrators by electing the Rosewater
delegates at whatever cost OF time and
effort. This advice must have struck
the popular chord.
