The French government has not
changed it's attitude on the question
of sending military expedition into
the interior of Morocco and the last
announcement made on the subject
was that France intended to abide
BY the terms of the Algeciras con-
vention, but contemplated the occu-
patton of the principal Moroccan
ports by troops of France and Spain,
preparatory to the establishment of
the international police may neces-
state the sending of heavy reinforce
ments to Morocco.
The reports from Berlin that Ger
many does not understand the policy
which France is following in Moroc-
CO, shows that France, fettered by
the restrictions of the Algeciras con-
vention, cannot make any movement
without possibly arousing distrust on
the part of Germany and other sigma
tories of the convention.
Premier CIemenceau announced to-
night he had summond a cabinet
meetmeeting for Monday to consider
the Moroccan question. t'The situa-
ton is as good as possible" remark

Ray of Hope Strikes France.
Paris, Sept. IA ray of hope for
possible solution of the Moroccan
problem came from the Moorish en-
pire tonight in the shape of an an
nouncement that the tribesmen were
ready to negotiate for peace. Vice
Admiral Phihbert confirmed the news
in an official cablegram stating that
a delegation from the warning Arabs
had asked Gen. Drlrde for an armistice
pending a settlement OF peace terms.
The jarmistice was to have expired
today but the result is not yet known.
No great expectations are based up.
on the announcement for there is
some suspicion that the move may be
a trick of the Moors to gain time to
bring in achievements. N
At home the new features in the
Moroccan question from the French
standpoint will be found in the opin
ions OF the German press upon the
question of indemnification for Ger
man losses that grew out of the bonn
bardment OF Casablanca and the ct
feet Of the project to police Morocct
by France and Spain. #

Shaming the Law.

Omaha World.Herald: Nebraska
newspapers that are accustomed to de.
nounce the entire south because of
the frequency with which murderers
escape proper punishment would bet.
ter take look into conditions at home.
A few months ago a hideous muir
der was committed at Ponca, a reject
ed lover shooting his former sweet
heart as she was about to be welded
to another man. There was no ques-
ton of the murderer's guilt but he
was acquitted on the plea of "insan.
ity." He was then confined for a few
weeks in the insane asylum at Norfolk,
only to be released with the statement
that he was perfectly sane and always
had been.
Barker, the Webster county muir
derer, should have been hanged many
months ago under the law. Though
he committed one of the most brutal
double murders in the history of the
state he is in fair way to go free.
A jury appointed to consider his san
ity disagreed, a long delay will ensue,
a new jury will listen to the Insanity
experts" and eventually justice will
be shamed.
A like effort, it is reported, will be
made to save Boche, the Norfolk muir
derer, who has not yet been tried. His
attorneys are Convinced" of his in
sanity and will ask his discharge on
this account
Thus, not once but many times, JUS
tice has been Knocked in Nebraska in
recent years. Even the supreme court
interfered, the other day, to save a
condemned man from hanging. There
was no doubt of his guilt, no irregu-
larity in his trial, the jury had fixed
the penalty as was its duty, but the
court set 1t aside and committed the
sentence, merely because it seemed to
the court that life Imprisonment would
be punishment enough!
And so, from our highest tribunal to
the humblest influence the law is
made light of in Nebraska. 1t is not
the statute against murder alone that
is Haunted with impunity. Express
companies and railroads furnish a
timely example at the other end of
the line.
Probably II an exact balance were
cast it would be found that law en-
forcement is just about as lax in Ne
braska, for all our boosted intelligence,
as it is in South Carolina.

Drainage FOR PLA|NV|EN
RECENT FLOODS HAVE CHANGED
CONDITIONS IN THAT TOWN.
SYSTEMATIC DRAINAGE STARTED

The Mayor and City Council Are In.
tent Upon Preventing a Repetition
of Recent Damage by FIoods-Thor-
ough Drainage lnaugurated.
Plainvew, Neb., July 22.-Special
TO The News: Since the recent rains
in this locality, the city council and
mayor have taken steps to improve
the streets and alleys in Plainview,
and establish a street grade. East
Plainview lies in a basin, and as a
natural consequence, the residents of
that part of the city are unfortunate
in catching most of the water after a
heavy rainfall. Mayor Engler and the
council propose to drain that part OF
the city in a systematic manner and
have already taken steps to that end.
Many claim that the city officials made
great mistake IN beginning their
drainage on the high land instead OF
starting on the lower spots in East
Plainview. They figure, however, that
the course they have taken is correct.
as they now have an opportunity to
drain from the hill and through the
lower portion of the town without
changing the natural course of the
water. 1t requires much time and a
large sum of money to carry out the
plans they have before them but May.
or Engler says that he will insist on
having the work done in a systematic
manner if it axes all summer to do it.
Another Improvement that is very no.
ticeahle is the laying of many blocks

Polo Game.

Clearwater Record: A large crowd
gathered in Jenkins pasture yoster-
day afternoon TO witness the game of
polo between Sioux Indians and cow
boys, managed by J. II. Ludwick
Every one was unfamiliar with the
game and anxious to see. The con
test proved to be very interesting and
exciting and no one regretted spending
the small price of admission.
The ponies and players proved them
selves adept at the game in spite of
the ground being so soft and wet that
1t was very dangerous to ride upon.
The manager and owner of the at.
traction, J. H. Ludwick, formerly lived
near Clearwater and is well known
here. His old friends are glad to see
him in charge of a unique and sue
cessful attraction of this character It
is something which will draw good
crowds anywhere and give them more
than their moneys worth. A short
explanation of the game might not be
out of place here: II is played on a
field resembling a football grdiron and
the ball and mallets are similar to a
croquet set. The rules are somewhat
like those of football, except they play
in four periods of ten minutes each.
The side scoring the most goals wins
the game, of course. The score yester-
day was S to 1 In favor of the cow
boys.

to be invested for the public's benefit
instead of against 1t.
This is a change In policy OF great
significance. II betokens an awaken.
ing on the part OF some railroad men
that is perhaps belated, but must be
beneficial. 1t is a recognition OF the
fact that the railroads themselves are
chiefly responsible for the present hos
tile state OF public opinion, which has
found expression In punitive and re-
talitory legislation Public resent.
ment against the systematic and us
ually successful efforts of railroads to
control the law-making and often the
law-executing powers, has grown in
recent years until It threatens to do
irreparable harm by the excuses in
which 1t INDUCES.
The management of a railroad is
charged with two duties-one toward
the owners of the road, and the other
to the public. Not always, alas, have
these duties been understood or, II
understood, discharged. Even the sa-
cred duty of earning big dividends has
been neglected while financiers were
engaged in the delectable occupation
of shaking out" the small investor.
But the duty to the public has been
slow of recognition. 1t Is a palpable
proof of progress when great system
like the Rock Island decides to give
up lobbying and devote its attention
to straight railroading.
