with all due credit to the Princeton
team, we cannot say that we deserved
to win. Although Dartmouth was not
better enough TO warrant their winning
they certainly did not deserve to have
the game go against them. And when
defeat was administered by means OF

seems almost the height Of injustice

Speed Limits.

In Massachusetts the matter of
speed limits for automobiles is left
entirely to the jury in each case that
comes up for trial. 1t is a sort of
rule of reason" law they go by, with
out having any fixed statute on the
factory results. For instance, when
motorist is brought up for trial he
is judged by the court and jury, all
the circumstances of his speeding
the street, the condition of traffic and
the possibility of danger-are taken
into account and the judgment is fixed
accordingly. II he was running his
machine at an excessive rate of speed
on street densely travelled, where it
is easily possible to do damage, he is
dealt with rather severely, but he may
have made the same, or even greater,
speed on another street, where traffic
is light, without mourning any
penalty.
This distinction is not without
foundation. At any rate, It does seem
that greater restrictions should sur
round the running of a machine on a
busy downtown thoroughfare than on
one out in the residence districts,
where there is little or no traffic. That
is exactly the theory of the law which
distinguishes between the limits fixed
for country and urban thoroughfares.
1t is far easier to determine on what
street a machine was running than ID
is to decide at what speed 1t was NOV
ing. Yet, to be sure, in most cities
where automobile accidents have hap
pened some of them have happened
on outside streets, where business
traffic Is not heavy. Children in cities
play on the streets. Sometimes they
have to, and this has to be taken into
consideration. Nevertheless, autos
should not be allowed to run as fast
in danger spots as in other parts.

Reconstruction.

The impassioned member of the
Mexican Chamber OF Deputies who
thrilled his audience with an Grafton
on the resignation of President Diaz
observed that General Diaz had been
called to account for his errors by
people who had progressed faster than
the author OF their progress had re-
allied" If that be true, Diaz has
builded better than he knew. Justly,
he added that the good General Diaz
had done his country would live for
ever and outweigh his mistakes.
Now, as the Mexican people under
a new regime, face the grave work of
reconstruction 1t remains to be seen
whether they can meet the issue bet
ter than they met it under Diaz for
thirty years and more. The remark
has been made that for the first time
in thirty years the populace was per-
mitted to shout with impunity the
name of its choice for the presidency,
and it shouted the name of Madero.
Likewise, it remains to be seen how
we'll these people will improve the OPP
portunity involved in this political
liberty. Even Madero by now realizes
that the work of destroying the Diaz
government was a simple task as com
pared with that of rebuilding a stable
republic, and the revolutions ultimate
success Is entirely contingent upon
this latter achievement. Americans
will watch with keen interest the re-
construction process, hoping that the
revolutionary leaders are not mis-
| taken in believing that the people of
Mexico are capable of as large a meas
ure of popular government as they
have demanded.
One impression stands out boldly
from all that has transpired in this
crisis, and that is General Diaz's un-
yielding conviction in the integrity of
his own official life. His letter of
resignation must make this plain to
all, and most people will believe in his
sincerity as expressed in this closing
sentence of that letter, which is itself
strikingly Illuminating flash of the
forceful character whose official ca
reer is at an end

Straight From the Shoulder.

Governor Aldrich's letter telling
County Attorney English what he ex-
poets him to do toward the enforce
ment of the Albert law is straight
from the shoulder. 1t is this charac-
teristic plain-spokenness that COM
mands admiration for the governor,
He informs the county attorney in
language that cannot be misunder-
stood that 1t Is up to him to do some
thing to prove his good faith, and that
no attempt to shift responsibility to
the chief of police In Omaha, or to
anyone else, will be accepted as a
valid excuse for inactIon- II the
county attorney does not promptly
make a conscientious attempt to en-
force the Albert law, Governor AL
drich announces his intention to take
steps to secure q county attorney who
will.
Everybody knows that the county
attorney is the prosecuting officer
charged with enforcement Of the GRIM
lAdA bbd6uISb' Dub h6E6 III DOuBlhb
county the county attorney has so far
succeeded in having the chief Of police
bear the brunt of every law-enforcing
movement, while he has slipped along
unnoticed. If the Sackett law has
any virtue in it, 1t can be invoked
against a county attorney wilfully
falling or refusing to enforce the law,
and particularly in the case of this
Albert law, which specifically imposes
on the county attorney the duty to
close disorderly places on the strength
of common report, placing the burden
of proof, or rather disproof, on the
other side.
Governor Aldrich has given County
Attorney English an ultimstum, and
1t is reasonable to expect that 1t will
produce results.

Disproportion of omaha's Wards.

The detailed census of Omaha by
wards shows how far the redistribu-
ton Of population has destroyed the
equality of the wards, If there ever
was any equality. The Third ward is
now the smallest in number of inhabi-
tants, reporting 7,76S, while the
Twelfth ward is the largest, reporting
14,495. or nearly twioe as many. On
a strictly proportional basis twelve
wards, aggregating a population of
124,098, should have each 1O,34O, 80
that the Fourth and Sixth wards, with
1o.191 and 10,257, respectively, are
the only ones that are reasonably ap-
proximate to the figure. If we were
to continue the ward representation
in our city government a redistricting
would be almost imperative, but If we
are to go to the commission plan of
government the wards will lose their
significance altogether, except possibly
for school board membership.

And the things we said of the winters

Ger the troubles we thought immense, -.
And we call them 'larks,' and we'd han-

And we think that the present grief
