FREMONT, Neb., Feb. 1s.-To the Editor
OF The Bees Partially answering the letter
of J. r. Mckee OF Palmyra, Neb.. In your
issue of February s. would like to ask Mr..
Mckee IL he has derived any benefit In the
farming vocation from the different de-
partments or courses of study in the uni
versity at Lincoln. or the state normal
school. or the state Industrial school, or
in fact any of the state institutions OF
learning7
The state farm and school OF agriculture
is Of as much importance and more so, It
seems TO me, than any other institution Of
learning. for Nebraska Is essentially an
agricultural state and needful Of this par

Ahout Tipping.


OMAHA, Feb. ITO the Editor of The
Bee: Permit me. through the columns OF
your excellent paper, to express what !
think can be considered the view Of the
average person on tipping. To begin with.
tipping 10 thoroughly un-American. We
pride ourselves on our great independence
of thought and action and yet few Of US
have nerve enough to refuse to pay tribute
to a walter. dare say, not one person
in thousand tips because they wish to OF
because they feel they have received any
special service or desired any, but simply
because they are too sensitive to not do
so when they know that Il Is expected.
There Is no more reason why a person
should tip a waiter than a street car con-
ductor. OF course. TIE service on
Omaha's street cars Is not particularly
good at any busy time. Railroads limit
the number of cattle to be loaded in a car
but no such fine discrimination is made
in loading street cars in Omaha.
You can be promptly and politely waited
on in a bank. department store, coal Of
fee or even pay your gas and water bills
without giving the clerk a tip. II you
tipped In any of these places you would
probably have the coin thrown, in your
face OF be told that the poor box was on

may remark you are only paying for what
you get in a dry goods store. What dc
you, get when you tip? You are getting
that particular something the colonists
didn't want when they dumped the tea in
Boston bay. Remember? The habit OF
tipping has not only placed the patrons oil
hotels and cafes in a false position, but
has brought about a condition for walters
that IL n downright shame. To think that
any class Of working people must toady 70
others in order to make a decent living is
too much. This sort of thing certainly
doesn't produce a nobler quality OF man.
kind and II is ''up to us" as a people tc
not permit such conditions to exist.
II Is we'll enough for the hotel keepers
whose interviews you printed last evening
TO say they wish the evil could be
stopped" that They don't think the Law
could be enforced" and that the guests
are all TO blame" II the hotel keepers
really wished to stop tipping they might
raise salaries and request guests not TO tip
But why raise salaries when the dear pub
lie is willing TO pay the freight
The Field club does not permit attend
ants 70 accept tips and the service Is al
that could be desired. Let our legislature
pass an anti-tipping bill which carries az
a penalty the punishment OF proprietort
and don't believe there will be any great
amount of trouble enforcing the law.

Through the efforts Of Mrs. Francis

association of the wives and daughters Of
the members of branch No. of the let
ter carriers of Omaha was organized last
week at the home of Thomas W. Shilling

several years, but II was only recently that
the movement was projected in Omaha.
After a brief address by Mrs. Black ex-
planatory of the nature and duties of the
auxiliary in respect to its relation to the
members of branch No. 8 and the national
organization, the following officers were
elected to serve for the local branch dur

AMHtCtNNHEYs
OMAHA, Feb. 1s.-To the Editor of The
Bee: II some writer's OF today who are
making such strenuous efforts to reform"
some people and things would only pin
their faith to the shadow of truth, they
might accomplish some good among peo-
pie who think as well as read.
The losses OF life and limb by railroad
wrecks. mine disasters. in foundries fac
tories and other trust controlled industries
are appalling enough without exaggera-
tion. But when rank ignorance CT DELHI
crate falsehood is allowed in comparison to
condemn them, the effort to reform is lost
in the disgust Of the reader. Here is Just
one OF a number Of samples have run
against.
I'VE in the United States kin in four
years some 5000 persons. more than fell
In battle and died OF wounds during the
four years Of the civil war"
BY way OF showing the absurdity OF this
comparison. let me quote from an authori-
tative statement, on page 166, "Harper's
cyclopedia OF United States History"
1T Is estimated that at least $4,000 union
soldiers persisted during the war. Fully that
number Of confederate soldiers lost their
iivess while the aggregate number Of men.
including both armies, who were crippled
OF permanently disabled by disease. was
estimated at 10000. The actual loss TO the
country OF able-bodied men caused by the
rebellion was fully 10000"

ESSEX COUNTY CHOOSES FORT.

Essex County was carried by the Re-
tions yesterday, but Sheriff soromer
polled a very large and Aattering vote,
being especially strong IN the county
outside of Newark. The Regular dele
gates elected are nearly all for Justice
John Franklin Fort. Seldom has there
been witnessed a more primary
battle in Essex County, although the
vote brought out was not as large as
was expected.
Throughout the State the Regulars
carried every county, and the great
majority of the delegates are pledged
to Judge Fort. Hudson County, won
by the Regulars, is as yet an enigma.
Justice Collins is known to be the
choice Of the Dickinson forces, but he
has not said he would be a candidate.
Tt is understood that he has written a
letter declining to run, and probably
after that appears the Hudson dciega-
ton majority will give tneir support to
the Essex candidate.
The calculation was made by some
Republican leaders that Sheriff Sommer
would either carry Essex County or di-
vide the delegation, and in preparation
for that result a number of dark horses
were fixed upon. as it would be rea-
soned thai Judge Fort would be I'M
available if he should not get a good
home majority. The name Of Con-
gresham Fowler was projected upon
the political screen for that purpose.
The primary results exclude all thought
of Fowler and seem TO preclude the
practicability of a dark horse being
successfully sprung upon the State con-
vention.
The candidate virtually selected, the
Republican leaders are now confronted
by the problem of a platform, and no
doubt the candidate himself will have
a hand in drafting it. Political plat
forms nowadays take advanced posi-
ions. The formulas and platitudes of
former years are outworn. The politi-
cal world has moved in the last three
years. Platform declarations must have
body and soul. Pledges must mean
something. They must look forward
o backward, and deal with actual
conditions, not theories. Republican
success this year lies more in the plat
form than in the personality of the
candidate.

G HI WINNER.

Mayor Pagan won an overwhelming
victory in the Jersey City m~ayoralty
fight, completely routing the Dickin-
son forces. His extraordinary popu-
larity in a city nominally Democratic,
where all the big corporations are OPP
posed to him, is one of the wonders
of New Jersey politics. Mayor Pagan
has conquered the primaries and the
nomination. He has disposed of party
opposition, and will 10 face the
Democratic party organizations which
will doubtless be reinforced by dis
gruntled Republican voters who ac-
knowledge fealty to Samuel D.. Dick
inson.
In his previous elections for Mayor.
Pagan had the support of a large body
of Democratic voters, and he will COM
the same kind of support in
November. His reelection will depend
upon the number of Democratic votes
that will go into the ballot box for
him, and he will need a large Demo-
support TO Offset the Dickinson
vote that will assuredly
against him.

THE RACE WAR IN COLUMBIA.

Affairs in British Columbia have as
stunned the aspect of a regular race
war Among the Japanese are veterans
of the war with Russia. and they come
to America inflated with the eonceit
and pugnacity hat have characterized
the Japanese people at home IN their
resentment, of the action of the San
Francisco school authorities in barring
cut Japanese, many of them adults.
The British Columbia Japanese have
resorted to arms and influenced Chinese
to join them, and they now constitute
a regular garrison.
A spectacle of this kind induces sober
reflection. 1t calls a halt on sny di-
plomacy, British or American. that con-
templates the introduction on this con-
tinent of masses of Asiatics. It is a
supreme vindication of the policy of
exclusion of Oriental labor tnat our
government has steadfastly adhered 10
for nearly thirty years. 1t is q con-
elusive reply to those u~nreflectirg peo-
pie who can see no harm in Nsiatic
immigration, and it confounds the
selfish reasoning of the large employers
of labor who would import Oriental
cheap labor for their own profit at any
cost to the nation.

.when the Grapes Are Sour.

Browns wife is such a foolish thing;
1 can't see why he loves her sos
She always is endeavoring
To make him jealous. Years ago
I knew her-loved her for a while
In fact, I asked her to be mine;
l have to turn away and smile
When he declares she is, divine.
I can't imagine why Van Dub
Is proud of that old yacht of his;
It's such an ugly looking tub.
And what a costly thing it Isl
1 might have bought 1T ono but I,
OF course, was not a millionaire;
Still, it's the last one I would buy
If 1 had money 1 could spare.
That auto Crawford runs is one
In which I'd not care to be seen;
Why. it Would deafen me to run
That wobbly noisy old machine;
If 1 had money, you can bet.
The agents wouldn't swindle me;
There's just one kind that I WOULD get,
I've figured out what it should be.
Say, what a fool Smith is these days
Because he a a son at lasta
To Judge him by his foolish ways
You'd think his sense was going fast,
Why, what's a boy. hat one should let
Himself become a nuisance? Pooh!
If I'd a boy l wouldn't get
AS silly as some people do.
