President Diaz announces that he
will resign when in his judgment
peace has been completely restored in
Mexico. He refuses to leave ONCE so
long as he sees danger Of anarchy as
resultant of war. He is not going
to be lured away from the helm by
which he has stood for a third OF q
century until he is convinced that the
old ship is out of the danger zone, and
in this he insists he is actuated, not
by selfish desires, but by a zeal for the
people Of Mexico In the language Of
Jim Bludsoe, he will hold her nozzle

1t may be just as we'll for Mexico
and foreign countries with property
rights there that the old veteran
should stand upon this proposition
for 1t will be a hard ship for a new
hand to guide even after it has passed
the troubled sea that now besets it.
With all his grimness in the exercise
of power, Diaz is yet man of great
ability and has admittedly admins
tered Mexico better than could any
other man of his day. If he gives
sufficient guaranty Of his intention to
resign the presidency as soon as peace
shall actually have been restored It
probably will be q far better victory
for the people than It would be to pre-
cipitate a scramble for the succession
before conditions are settled or con-
tinue the war because he refuses to
abdicate Immediately.
OF course, it will seem that to await
the complete restoration of peace and
order imposes little on. the patience
Of the revolutionary leaders ambi-
ton for full control, but Madero and
his forces have 1t in their power to
hasten it's advent and the transfer OF
ofhcial power by helping to restore
peace, and for them now to hold back
beyond insisting on satisfactory guar
antics might tend to impugn their own
good faith and patriotic motives.

Forest Fires Again.

In Canada and the United States
forests continue to be wiped out by
fire, yet we go on with our contro-
versies about conservation OF natural
resources without making the right
sort of provision to guard against
such destruction. Reports say a vast
amount of timber has been destroyed
by fire in New England and Mani

seasonal, climatic or sectional rules.
They come in the winter, spring or
summer, on the Atlantic or Pacific
side of the continent or in the in
terror, but they come. and always with
the same fearful toll of timber that
we need so much now and for the
future.
Last year the fires in the northern

wiped out four towns, eating their
way through village and forest, rem
dering hundreds homeless and penni-
less and destroying property that
could not be replaced. 1t seems like

recurring devastation for some meani

Some Of the home folks have started

Whersupon the st. Paul Pioneer
Press gets up In meeting to observe
that Mr.. Tawney is Just now at large
because he got himself in a state of
disagreement with his longtime con-
stituents in the First district And
1t calls upon the old whip Of the
house, the Watchdog of the treas

tar before getting the forgiveness of
his brethren. Upfto date Mr.. Tawney
has brought no gifts to the altar as a
token of his remembrance that his

has evidently done nothing toward a

SOUTH OMAHA, Neb., May $40 the
Editor Of The Bee A few days ago you
published a communication from our stern
old republican friend, Joseph Black OF
Kearney, Neb. (Your headline was lone
Voice for Lorlmer'O, Said article, however

your great journal has pursued concerning

Murdoch and others in that insurgent class
will eventually drift over to the democratic
and socialist party. where their demagogic
instinct and tendencies will naturally locate
them.
1t seems apparent to the steadfast re-
publicans that your persistent filings and
innuendos directed against Senator Lsor-
inner, who was given an open, unbiased
trial by his fellow senator's both repub-
licans and democrats. and honorably eX-
onerated from having any personal knowl-

the Illinois legislature, should be a suf-
ficient guaranty that Mr.. Lorimer is
justly entitled to the seat ne holds in the
senate. Then, again. those democrats in
the legislature who supported him, with a
few exceptions, were endorsed by their
constituents at recent elections.

sonal grievance against our own United

Brown augurs no good to our party, while

Nebraska as a weather vane.

II remained for the washington poll
ticians to point out the limelight position
Nebraska Is to have in next years presi-
Dental preliminaries. II appears that Ne
braska ls one of three states that have Sc
lecteo themselves for experiment stations
in presidential public opinion. New Jersey
for the east, Oregon for the west and Ne
braska for the great middle-west viii Sc
leot their presidential candidates by popu-
lar vote. These three samples OF public
opinion are expected to have a profound
Influence on the choosing of champions
next year. The presidential primary states
will be in much the same position with ref
erence to the national conventions as the
September voting of Maine and Vermont
give them with reference to the November
electiOns.-Lincoln Journal.
In theory the straw vote on presi-
dent to be had in Nebraska, New Jer-
sey and Oregon should have "a pro-
found influence on the choice of the
conventions that make the nomina-
lions next year, but the chances are
that these states will play about the
same part, and have about the same
weight, that they usually do. The
weather-vane idea presupposes that
the preferential vote in these states be
promulgated in advance of the action
of other states and be accepted as a
fair index of the sentiment Of the re-
spectiVe parties as between the candi-
dates under consideration. Whether
this vote will be such an index will de-
pend on whether there are compli-
eating local conditions. II Mr.. Bryan's
name, for example, we're to be voted
on in Nebraska, would anyone con-
tend that the remaining votes scat
tered among other democratic candi-
dates would truly reflect the wishes
of the Nebraska democracy as between
vote in all of these states is to be
taken about the middle of April,
which will be after probably half Of
the delegates from other states will
have been chosen, and nothing which
may happen in Nebraska, New Jersey
or. Oregon will release delegates al
ready under instructions. In Oregon,
too, the primary is an open primary,
so that the vote there on either the
democratic or republican side may be
cast by members of the opposite party.
The basic idea OF the presidential
preference primary is that all the
states should adopt 1t, and vote on the
same day, in which event, of course,
the result in no one state exerts any
influence in the nature of a weather
vane upon the result in any other
state.
Our Nebraska presidential prefer
ence straw vote next year lie going to
be an interesting experiment, but we
must not expect too much of 1t nor de-
Ilude ourselves into the notion that we
will thereby determine the makeup
of all the presidential tickets.
