GERMAN CITIES AND OUR OWN.

vHE German cities trace back to the Middle Ages or to times
earlier. The German system is supposed to be bureau
cratic" overburdened with red tape. 1t might be thought
that our young American cities would exceed them in freedom OF
movement and action, in elastic adaptation to new conditions and the
new wants Of their inhabitants. That the contrary is the case, the
capital address of the German Ambassador on municipal government
in the Fatherand shows beyond question. The German city is mis-
tress of its own destinies, has been since Prussia was made over by
Baron Stern after the collapse Of 1906. While American cities talk
"home rule" German cities have it.
These cities have turned the impediments Of their years into
assets. Their e~ngrding Notifications, instead Of crampng their
growth, have been made into boulevards and noble ring" streets
They have taken are that new growth in their suburbs shall not
reterate old mistakes. Here in New York fresh centres of conges
ten tend 10 build up in the outlying districts as fast as congested
centres are abated at the heart Of Manhattan. There is a constant
struggle to weaken the tenement house law a applied 10 the outer
districts. The city has no general plan 10 shape its future, and devel
opment Ii haphazad.
In Germany there are government boards which determine
whether outlying districts shall be residential, factory or mixed;
laws which automatically prevent suburban congestion by prescrib-
ing that only twotenths Of . plot shall be built upon, and the power
through "excsss condemnation" b control and finance improvements
By acquiring md ressling land AUDITING new streets. The people Of
the Empire State at the Last election refused to grant this large and
useful power to their cities. We have something to learn from
Germany.

WOMAN THE CONSERVATIVE.

70 leading candidate for Mayor Of Los Angeles ever was beaten
IL 80 badly a. Job Hartman, Socialist, was beaten Tuesday.
L y 1t was the first chance women had to vote there, and their
leader is we'll advised when she says ut was the votes Of women
that showed under the Socialists" OF 10000 women registered she
figures that 95 per cent. voted. and Of these rs per cent. voted against
Hartman.
Their grudgs against tho Socialist party? In . word, that it
stood for woman suffrage and woman's complete emancipation"
Something like this happened in Norway Is soon as women were
admitted to the suffrage. They used the ballot to vote out the
party that had enfrsnchised them. Their grievance was that it had
enfranchissd them
OF course the women Of Los Angeles and Of Norway did not put
it that way. What they did in each case was to return q verdict
against radicalsm. and woman suffrage is . plank in every radical
platform.
By instinct women are conservative. The female of the species
is more stable than the male Al the sodoogst, Lester Ward, put
il, she IL "ths guardian Of hereditary qualities" In religion, in
clothing in domestic economics, the woman conforms, and the man
IL the innovator, the non-conformist. The monarchies Of the world
ret on voman's shoulders, ON her inherited fondness for the pomp,
the millinery, the sssey and ordered life Of courts. But for this,

Those devoted spirits who are laborfng for woman suffrage are
doing . work not merely unselash but selfsacrifing. As radicals
they do not represent their sex, and the latter will surely use the

the use of paint. This Is one reason Why
concrete blocks an imitation of stone
have never been success. They are but
the cast of an original model, and while
passing through the process of manufac-
ture, lose the life and character of real
rock face stone work. A masonry wall with
brick or stone has in addition to the ar
tistic color effects obtained by the right
choice and combination of materials, an
appearance of solidity and permanency not
possible in a frame wall
Stone work costs very little less today thar
it did generation ago, but the cost to
manufacture bricks through the improve
ment in machinery and close competition is
becoming less. Twenty-Five years ago 1t was
considered artistic to decorate the extenioE
of home with as many spindles, wooden
fans and other scroliola things of fantastic
design as possible. The gables and dormers
were especially loaded down with theiI
applied fairy-llle fantastic creations In
wood. Today all of this is changed The
woodwork is eliminated as much as possible
with the result that the typical American
home of the middle class is dignified, re-
quires less expense for its up-keep, and has
about it an air of simple beauty that IL
permanent.

Organized Labor to
Be Out in Full Force
on Parade Monday
Thirty-Two Unions to Take Part in
the Marching that Will Pass
Over the City Streets.

The Labor day parade committee an
nounced Friday night that fully 5000
marchers will be in line in the big turn
out next Monday These men Will p
resent every branch Of organized lab n
Omaha, and will comprise the membership
of thrty-two distinct labor unions. For
the first time in the history of the labor
movement the members of the new fed
Grafton of railroad shop men will march

Harvey to Nineteenth, north on Nine
teenth to Farnam, east on Farnam to
Sixteenth and north on Sixteenth to
Cunning, disbandng there, where the
marchers will take street cars for Court
land beach for the picnic.
One of the features of the parade will
be the number of decorated floats depict
ing various kinds of industrial labor. The
Mcnamara" float will be an innovation in
labor procession, having been gotten up
especially to receive contributions for the
defense of the two Mcnamara brothers
now in jail at Los Angeles, charged with
being implicated in the plot to blow up the
Los Angeles Times building. The float
will be in charge of state Senator Reagan.
who was selected by the parade committee
to handle the contributions as they are

| Every year there is a lot of rich men
who are anxious TO have their sons spend
their vacations in the west getting close
to nature. Some years ago C. c, Moore,
son of ]. X. Moore, the veteran stage
| owner OF the west, concluded there would
be big money in herding the sons of rich
men during the vacation months. He put
his scheme before some OF the rich fathers
and they favored 1t. Then things came
easy for Mr.. Moore. who now, each year,
goes east. gets his boys. takes them out
to his ranch in the mountains, takes them
through the park, gives them fishing and
| hunting and then, at the end of the sea
son, delivers them back TO their parents
There is money in 1t for Mr.. Moore.

simplicity is the terminal point
Of all progress The man who
- can do something to simplify
RKIl the running of railroad, can
49, simplify the manufacture OF
any commodity much in use, or can sim
plify the running of great business is
always in demand. The simplifcation of
all things in general pervades the times,
and it is therefore quite natural that this
tendency towards simple things should be
evident I'm the planning and designing of
modern homes.
The large living room now takes the
place of the old time parlor. sitting room
and library, and this is usually SO openly
connected with the reception hall as to
almost include it, in fact some homes fol-
lowing the craftsman idea, which is more
and more coming into popular favor actu-
ally do include both the reception hall and
dining room in the large living room.
Interior decoration and furnishings also
follow more simple lines than they did n
few years ago. Gilt chairs, little tables
with ornamental brass legs and onyx tops
and their like are no longer considered a
necessary part of home decoration. Each
piece of furniture is now selected to serve
some practical purpose, with comfort and
than elaborate display.
What is true of the planning and fur
nishing of our homes is especially true of
the exterior design. The cabinet maker is
no longer put at his wits end to get up
new and fanciful ideas for cornice deco
ration. and to use seven colors of paint
on the same house is now considered in
artistic. But one color of paint Is now
used for all painted woodwork. and the
variety of color is obtained by using diff
ferent harmonious materials. The aver
age home-builder is trying more and more
to see how good a home he can build,
| instead Of how elaborate. Home-builders
are coming to realize the fact that it is
| taste and not money that makes house
| homelike. There is halo Of dignity
about simple things when good taste il
evident, which cannot be obtained in any
other way.
| The fact that IL is costing more and more
to build m this country no doubt is strong
factor in the simplification of the design
and construction of our houses, but hap
PLY, reducing the expense of building in
this way is commendable. The tendency
seems to be toward using fewer oombustible
and pershable materials, and more ma
sonry. That the time is now at hand. as
some claim, when homes will be built en-
tirely of masonry is doubtful, for there
are many things about home which can
not be made of masonry, and be practical,
