The Premier began hostilities this
week by putting 500 new omnibuses
of the latest type into the streets to
compete with the combine. Its rep
resentatives say they will add to their
equipment at the rate of 500 omni-
buses weekly until they have two
vehicles to the combines one. The
combine has retorted by putting 1000
new omnibuses into service at once,
by opening up ten new routes and by
q general reduction In fares. The
omnlbuses and underground and SUR
face lines have also established a
system of transfers-and advantage
never enjoyed by Londoners before.
II Is estimated that one-fourth Of

Absenteeism in Congress.

Those who ought to know declare
that absenteeism cuts much larger
figure in retarding business and pro-
longing sessions OF congress than peo-
pie generally understand. 1t figured
extensively this way in the late extra
session Of congress. Members in house
and senate resort to absence often as
means OF defeating or postponing
final action on a measure. II is the
lifeblood of filibustering and jobbery
Of various forms.
Yet there is a rule which provides
for docking members of congress for
the time they are absent, but 1t has
never been enforced. In the last ses-
sion there was some talk of enforcing
II, out It ended there. Neither side has
ever cared to resort to the rule, for

Commission Plan in South Omaha.


The adoption of the commission plan
of city government for Omaha by such
a decisive vote in it's favor has natur-
ally started talk about a move to sub
NIT the commission plan for adoption
in South Omaha. The assumption, or
presumption, is that If the commission
plan is good for Omaha, and eagerly
seized upon here as assuring us i'm
proved government, 1t should be
equally good for South Omaha, and
equally desirable as a promise of better
municipal conditions.
Irrespective of that phase of the
question, however, the adoption of the
commission plan of government by
South Omaha would be only partial
solution of its problem. 1t would still
leave South Omaha a separate and dis
tinct municipal corporation, with it's
unnecessarily duplicated and costly
machinery of government.
If South Omaha wants to reap the
benefits of the commission plan, it
would be just as easy for it to vote con-
solidation with Omaha and come in
with us on the ground floor with a
new deal throughout. South Omaha
can, IL it wishes, submit the question
of annexation at the coming November
election, and if carried the merger of
the two cities would take place on
January 1 of next year. South Omaha
would then be part of Omaha in ad-
vance of our first commission plan
election, and as part of Omaha would
have the same voice in choosing COM
missioners, and the same proportion
ate share of administrative work, as
the people in other parts of Omaha.
On the other hand, If South Omaha in
sists on commission plan government
of it's own, it cannot get it started
until the expiration of the terms of it's
present officers, which run yet for
nearly two years.
If South Omaha wants the commits
sion plan of city government, the
easiest, quickest, most effective and
most economical way of getting it is
by consolidation with Omaha.

Register TODAY

Today is registration day in Omaha,
and every good citizen should see to It
that his name is properly enrolled on
the registration lists. We have had
such a multiplicity OF registrations
and elections in Omaha during the
last few months that it doubtless seems
like rushing things to be called upon
to register again now. But it should
be distinctly understood that previous
registrations no longer hold, and that
the registration of voters which begins
today is the only one by which election
officials will be governed at elections
to be held during the ensuing year.
BY registering today the voter will
qualify to cast his ballot, not only at
the coming November election, but also
for the city election next March, when
the commission plan of government
will be inaugurated, and for the state
wide primary next spring, at which a
presidential preference vote will be
taken, in addition to choice of candi-
dates on party tickets for all Offices
to be filled in 1912. In other words, a
man need register but once if he does
it today to vote at least in three regu-
lar elections, to say nothing Of possible
special elections. 1t Is also certain
that a man who does not register will
not be entitled to vote at any election
except on the almost prohibitive con-
ditions required for swearing in.
Register today, and have it over

Dangers Of DIPLOMATIC Promotions.

OdllS Cls VI ulpluIuhJlC EIOUOJlOnS,
The parting shot at his critics from
Ambassador David Jayne Hill has ref
erence to the personal considerations
leading up to his retirement from the
court at Berlin, but it also emphasizes
the difficulties to be met under our
new system of diplomatic promotion.
1t goes without saying that the
value of the services Of ambassador or
minister sent abroad to represent us
in foreign capital depends not only
upon the tact and ability displayed in
handling official relations, but also
on the standing of our representative
as a persona grata to the government
to whom he is accredited. When our
ambassadors and ministers went into
the diplomatic service to fill a partic-
ular place, these considerations could
have their due weight, and it was
seldom that some one particularly
fitted for a post in view could not be
found
The rule of promotion which has
been put into effect in diplomatic serv-
ice means that every time a vacancy
Of highest rank is to be filled, a sue
cession of transfers must be ordered all
along the line, so that instead of hav-
ing one change we have many, and
the task confronting the State de-
partment is to give better places to as
many of those eligible to promotion as
possible. 1t may be argued that when
we develop a professional class Of dip
lomats, all of them, according to their
experience, should be equally well
adapted to service in one country as
another, and that our diplomats may
then be moved around and up in Just
as arbitrary a fashion, for example, as
army and navy officers make progress
by seniority and ranking number.
Whether such a system, however
will produce satisfactory service and
give the best results in the diplomatic
corps is yet to be disclosed. Ambas-
sador Hills case is an example of this
sort of promotion and Notwithstanding
ample proof of his learning and ability
and his admirable discharge of duties
in other branches of State department
service, his assignment to Berlin has
to put it mildly, proved unfortunate
and embarrassing to him as well as to
the two governments

The New School Year.

Those melancholy days, 1.-The saddest
of the year." of which men meaningly
speak, always come earlier in the au-
tumn for the boys and the girls than
they do for the grown-ups, and they are
now upon them. Streets, yards and
alleys will be swept of hundreds of
thousands of youngsters this week and
the cleanings dumped into the school
rooms for another year of eight, nine
or ten months. But what will be
Johnnie's loss will be mammals gain
dear, patient mamma. Vacation is
not always play to her just because it
is to the little folks about. Yet, the
mamma is patient still and happy to
have the Johnnies and the Marys about
with their racket and their rumpuses
knowing that there is only a limited
number of vacations for them after
all; that soon, they, too, will cease be-
ing romping, rollicking children and
will come to take up their cares with
the rest.
The thought is finely expressed in
that old jingle song of other school
days:
Oh boy is a boy and a boy let him be,
For the season of boyhoods a span
And the heart that now leaps in its Joy
and its glee.
Soon will ache with the cares OF man.
When the young folks go back to
their school this week they will know
they have had a hot" time, literally
Let US hope they will never have
hotter one. II heat is needed to make
a vacation enjoyable then they can
boast of one of the dandiest old va
cations that any generation OF kids
ever fell heir to.

fear Of standing "a need of its i'm
munity at some future time, itself. 1t
would be a good thing, though, to
have it impartially enforced. 1t is a
matter OF real coAcern to the people
and they might sue TO it that it be-
came more interesting to their repre-
sentatives at Washington.
The Chicago Tribune recently went
to the pains of showing how many
days each member of its delegation in
congress missed in the last session.
There were 100 working days in the
entire session Four members of the
house from Illinois were absent more
than one-third the time and a majority
of the twenty-five members were out
more than one-tenth of the time. Sen
ator Cullom did not miss a day and
former Speaker Cannon missed only
one day, while Senator Lorimer
missed most of the session. Illinois
congressman outrank all others in the
matter of being absent.
1t is quite probable that II the rule
of no attendance, no pay, were strictly
applied this handicap could be over
come OF course, all the men who GO
to Washington as representatives or
senators are large-hearted statesmen,
actuated and impelled by the lofty
motive of patriotic service-and all
that-and are never mercenary, but
just the same, it would be instructive
