MEAT INSPECTION RULINGS.

The supplementary rulings of the
Department of Agriculture extend and
strengthen in important points the
meat inspection orders that had been
previously promulgated, particularly
TO reduce chances of evasion. II
was early discovered that unless great
care we're taken there might be serious
abuse Of the exception made by the
law in favor OF farmers who slaughter
animals on the farm. There is, how
ever unquestionable legal warrant
for the departments ruling that the
right of the farmer to ship the car
oasses of such animals without ma
tional inspection from one state to
another or to a foreign destination
is purely personal and to be strictly
construed, so that it cannot be exer-
eised by his assignee or by a jobber act
ing as his agent. The interstate
market, while 1t is thus considerably
narrowed to the excepted farmer. is
also very eheetually protected against
AAauAo anu abuoCo uhANi CClol VI tue
exemption which might otherwise
have been extensive.
So also the departments decree re-
quiring absolute veracity In label
statements Of weight OF meat and
meat packages, whether net or gross,
is a guarantee OF great value to the
public, although compliance will at
first occasion considerable expense
and trouble to packers and TO the meat
trade. AS II does not go into effect
till January 1, there is time for
the packers TO make the necessary
changes and for the trade TO adjust
itself to them.
On the other hand. the rulings for
facilitating reshipments. etc, show a
liberal spirit on the part OF the gov
eminent which is disposed to be leni-
ent and 10 impose no harsh re-
strietions on packers. shippers. car.

common people who pay taxes on
many articles they consume and see
no reason why globe glrdlers who
invest abroad money earned at home
should not also pay taxes in reason
able proportion. The import tax on
japanese bric-a-brao is not bothering
the Nebraska voter half as much as
the taxes which the railroads have
been shirking and shifting onto the
other taxpayers.

HOW TO GET THE DOUBLE SHIFT.

Members of the Omaha FIRE depart
ment are earnestly enlisted in a move
ment to secure legislation providing
for a double shift instead of the al
most continuous hours now exacted.
When the fremen were before the last
legislature with their bill, it foun-
dered on the rocks of an inadequate
fire fund to pay the additional cost
which the double shift would entail.
Then, as now, public sentiment was
by no means opposed to relieving fire
men from this onerous condition Of
their employment, but many Of our
large property owners and business
men feared that to maintain the fire
department in its present high state
of efficiency under a double shift sys-
tenn would impose undue tax burdens
which they were not ready to meet.
In all probability the question Of
additional expense will again be the
most formidable obstacle, but this OBJ
stacle could and would be entirely re-
llONEu IL Ouldud COulu NlhuAIetNS as
right to collect taxes on the railroad
property within the city limits, the
same as on other property. The tax
alton Of railway terminals for city
purposes should bring into the city
treasury approximately 100000 a
year and make it easily possible TO In
crease the fre fund $4,000 or $40,-
900, with the immediate installation
of the double shift, the purchase OF
new fire apparatus, and the creation
of several more FIRE lighting crews.
South Omaha fremen would be
helped along with Omaha fremen
and would be brought within reach
of the double shift as soon as the
next tax levy came in. Terminal tax
alton would make the double shift a
certainty, but the only way TO get
terminal taxation is to elect repub-
liean legislative ticket, which alone is
pledged TO see it through.

CAMPAIGN FUNDS.

There is good reason for believing
that money has been far less potent
factor than usual in the pending cam
paign. The testimony of party man
ayers and committees is unanimous
that their funds have been exceed
ingly slender in comparison with the
average supply in recent years, and in
many cases they complain grievously
of the deprivation.
The fact, however unpleasant from
the managerial standpoint or from
that Of the horde of onhangers who
have been accustomed to absorb so
great proportion of campaign funds,
must be taken as a wholesome and
reassuring condition, signifying the
effect of even partial publicity and of
the public demand for enforcement
Of politics from undue corporation in
fiuence. The big contributions of cor
ton and often absolute certainty OF
corresponding benefits and privileges
from the officers of the government at
the expense of the mass of the peo-
pie. The cessation or domination of
such corporation favors towards party
organization may be reasonably taken
as rejecting vanishing hope for the
goods" which used to be delivered
through legislation and administration.
The committees, however, have not
been exactly penniless, although the
treasures have been so far supplied
only by the contributions of individual
citizens and candidates. But the way
has been prepared, by removing many
Of the reasons for concealment, for a
general thorough showing of the
sources and uses OF campaign funds,
even where it is not legally compul-
sorry. 1t is significant that the de-
mand for such showing is already
being made in many quarters through
out the country in advance of the
close of the campaign. This demand
itself. emanating from an improved
public sentiment, promotes legitimacy
of expenditure, and marks important
advance towards universal publicity
