commission that he believed raise of
wages to the amount OF 100000
should not be considered as an element
in the equalizing of rates. Anomalous
as the situation seems. it must mean
that for once and at last public senti-
ment and popular intelligence have
exercised an effective influence upon
the railroad managers and upon the
financial interests back of them, for
undoubtedly these interests are re-
sponsible for the change Of tone on the
part of the operators. 1t is a good in
dication. The people have no desire
to impose hardships on the railroads
and will not tolerate it, but at the
same time it would never be possible
for them and the railroads to get at a
real and honest adjustment OF rates
without first a frank recognition of
things as they exist. If rates should
be raised, let the raising be done upon
the basis of actual facts and not ficti-
tious pretense.

Nationality in Lawlessness.

The statistical tables accompanying
the report of the chief of police show
ing the activity of the police depart
ment of Omaha for the year 1909 in
clude figures classifying persons ar
rested according to nationality and
color.
The total number of arrests made
in Omaha during the year was 1915,
of which $500 were men and 1,415
women. OF this number S,1S7 were
white, 1877 colored, 16 Indians and
35 Asiatics, OF the 1915 persons ar
rested only 1,642, or about 16 per
cent, were foreign born and S,273
were native born. including among
them 1876 native born colored
persons
There is nothing startling in these
figures nor anything not disclosed in
similar tables for previous years in
other cities. They furnish, however,
cumulative proof that our foreign-born
citizens are not the ones who are
chiefly responsible for lawlessness.
The foreign-born immigrant as a rule
comes to this country as an adult, and
it is the adults mainly to whom the
police give attention. The foreign
born newcomer is, in the nature OF
things, unacquainted with our customs
and our laws, and more likely to vic.
late them through ignorance than
those who have had better opportuni.
ties. And yet the number of foreign
born listed in the arrests of a eosmo
politan city like Omaha is compare,
lively small. and certainly no greater
than the population proportion.
The excessive number OF colorec
persons arrested could be explained ii

ozarks Nominate Sherman.

Vice President Sherman has been
nominated for the presidency by the
plain people, although the honor was
thrust upon him without his knowl-
edge or consent. All he did was to go
to Marshfield, Mo-, a little village
nesting neatly in the lap of the Ozark
mountains, and before he realized any
thing was up he found himself in the
delicate position of being a rival for
the presidential succession. A fervid
orator of the old school who repre-
sents the Ozarks in congress intro
duced' the vice president and before he
got his impassioned eloquence under
full control he had declared James
Schoolcraft Sherman to be the next
president of the United States and
then the people let loose pandemon-
ium, acclaiming their new chief execu-
tive.
Mr.. Sherman should and doubtless
will bear his distinction cautiously
Men of his eminence call but infre-
quently at Marshfield and the stream
of life runs slowly there. A dozen
other men may pluck the same honor
from that very people before the
autumn is gone. Ovations are on tap
at Marshfield and hundred other
places in the Ozarks the year round
and when the equilibrium is once up
set there is no damming the stream
of passion this side the White House,
1t would be just as we'll, therefore, for
MI Sherman to have this nomination
confirmed before laying out his plans
of campaign.
Marshfield, the historian tells us,
was once shattered by tornado, so
naturally it would be easily susceptible
to the least excitement and should not
be held too rigidly accountable for all
its acts. In the meantime we con-
graduate the vice president and wish
him we'll.

Says George French in Advertising

opportunity that is denied to any other
medium. Its contact is with the daily
life Of it's readers. Its influence is as
direct and constant as the influence of
an individual upon the family. If the
newspaper is the right kind, If 1t has
established itself as an element in the
family--of the family-that is entitled
to respect and consideration, it is
therefore a good advertising medium.
II it has not done this, II it is looked
upon with suspicion, IL it has made for
itself a reputation that suggests doubt,
II it is not believed, If it is not inter-
esting, If it is not part of the daily

it's lack of bona fides in the family"

seidel Makes an Exhibition.

The socialist mayor of Milwaukee
has made an exhibition OF himself
and his party creed by refusing to join
in the welcome to Theodore Roose-
welt on his visit to that city because
he has taken an "unscholarly and I'M
fair" position on socialism Mayor
Seidel had been getting along very
well with his public utterances and
acts and had begun to Impress the
country as a really sane and sensible
man and, in fact, had begun to make
friends by some of the rational meas
ures he advocated and put into effect.
1t seems too bad, therefore, that he
should have chosen such trivial pre-
text by which to undo much of the
good opinion he had gained.
OF course Colonel Roosevelt will
have no difficulty in obtaining an of
ficial' welcome to Milwaukee, Sor he
might even make an entry into the
city without such a welcome if 1t came
to that and in the meantime, while no
words of greeting from Mayor seidel
could be expected to alter his views on
socialism, it is quite probable that the
colonel would have much higher re-
gard for both socialism and it's militant
leader, the mayor of Milwaukee, had
the mayor acted with more broad
mindedness. Great men honestly
differ, but great men seldom allow
honest differences to mar their civic
relations. 1t is impossible for any

Listening to Better Judgment.

1t is reliably reported that railroad
officials have decided not to urge
poverty" as a plea for higher rates,
thus making one concession to popular
intelligence. 1t is but natural that
they have come to, admit the futility
of such an argument, with regularly
recurring dividends Of and 10 per
cent to mock them and earnings in
still greater ratio. Their original line
of attack, therefore, has been com
pletely changed and instead of insist
ing that inability to cope with present
high prices of labor and materials
makes greater means OF revenue i'm
perative, they will offer the more
rational plea that increases are de-
manded to meet necessary expansions
and improvements and even at that
will not expect the Interstate Com
merce commission to regard it as a
self-evident proposition.
The change that has come over the
railroad men is very marked. Presi-
dent Ripley of the Santa Fe, who has

The difference betyeen the Taft
and R0oseyelt policies Of conservation
so far as there arc differences, seems
to be wholly as to the methods OF adj
President Taft believes
in the necessity OF congressional au-
thority before the executive may de-
termlne the disposition of the public
domain, while Colonel Roosevelt be-
lieves the president himself may pro-
coed on his own authority. But this
is not essentially a difference in policy.
Both believe alike in the principle of
conserving natural resources and both
believe alike that conservation does
not mean denying the use of these
resources to the present age, but
rather such use of them as will yield
present benefits and at the same time
store powers for the future.
Colonel Roosevelt makes his ad-
herence to this principle the keynote
Of his Denver speech, while President
Taft has repeatedly committed himself
to the same policy. There is no chance,
therefore, for an argument as to the
attitude OF either man toward the
fundamental principle of conservation
AS to who is right on the matter of
authority, that is something for the
future to decide. So long as the people
as a whole are firm for conservation,
their interests will not suffer Former
President Roosevelt, IL not the father
of the conservation movement, is at
least its chief exponent and during his
administration gave. ample evidence
of his determination to carry out the
system to the best interests of the
people and country at large. Presi-
dent Taft, on the other. hand, has fully
justified his insistence upon con-
gressional authority before withdraw
ing public land. When congress gave
him the instruction desired he
promptly proceeded to withdraw more
than II 100000 acres of mineral, agri-
cultural, timber and phosphate land
and land containing valuable power
and water sites, absolutely keeping
faith with the people. In his judg-
ment as a careful constitutional law
yer, withdrawal of this land without
such authority from congress was
fraught with some legal doubt. If he
should have withdrawn the land arbi-
trarily and later his view should be
proved correct, then a most serious
complication would have arisen, for
every acre withdrawn and occupied for
settlement would be subject to liti-
cation.
1t was not only consistent with his
course to have congress define the
presidents authority, but it was the
only safe procedure. BY his sweep
ing Withdrawals, the president has
silenced every criticism as to his
original purposes in advancing this
argument.

omaha's Amusement Places.

The opening in Omaha of another
magnificent new theater, the second
within six months, probably fills oul
complement of amusement places for
the present.
Omaha has for years been rated as
a first-class show town, and with the
up-to-date facilities for good theatrical
entertainments which it now pos
sesses, providing at the same time for
the comfort of the theater-going pub
lie who make up the audiences, it
ought to command the very best con-
sideration from the purveyors of pop
ular amusement.
In addition to the theaters We in
Omaha also have our commodious Au-
ditorium, substantial and fireproof
erected as a public enterprise to an
swer the demands that cannot be met
by theaters and halls of ordinary size
The Auditorium ought to be utilized

II all these places of amusement
were Offering entertainment at the
same time they would have accommo
dations for $1,000 people, which is
surely all and more than is reasonably
to be expected in city of Omaha's
size and location.

ment is only further testimony to the
progressive spirit which dominates oul
community.

New Jersey has a wholesome and eff
fective method of dealing with violators
OF the speed and other regulations gov
erning automobiling. The licenses OF the
offenders are either suspended or can
celled altogether. This, however, does not
go as far as it might, for there is nothing
to prevent the auto owner from hiring a
chauffeur. The confiscation OF the ma
chine for six months or a year would
probably work wonders in instllling a re-
gard for the law and for the rights OF
