of members in congress and most Of
the real business In both houses is,
after all, transacted in committees.
While it is not desirable to shut off
on popular debate or public hearings
in an open forum, it is positively
necessary to do a great deal of the de-
tail work In the committee room,
where the smaller body of men can
save time.
So far as congress is concerned, the
tendency has always been toward this
Capitalization and nobody has ever
heard OF any legitimate interest suf-
fering as a result. Each memb Der of
the house represents a far greater
number of persons today than he did
twenty years ago. Other considera-
lions. however, commend the smaller
number theory. The smaller number
tends to lessen the possibility OF barter

Reciprocity with Omaha.

Commenting on. the coming enter
tainment by Omaha of Nebraska edi-
tors when they hold their state con-
vention here next month, the Wayne
Herald urges attendance of rural pub
fishers on the meeting to bring about
closer relations with Omaha. I'VE
need Omaha, and Omaha needs US" it
says; 1T can do us more good in the
way of advertising and boosting than
large centers outside of the state. We
ought to have a reciprocity treaty
with the metropolis"
II the rural cities and towns
throughout Nebraska do not have a
reciprocity treaty with Omaha, and
enjoy the mutual benefits Of such rela-
tionship, 1t is their own fault, for
Omaha has always recognized the de-
STABILITY of pulling in harness with
all the communities of the state and
has always been willing to go more
than half way Omaha realizes that
the foundation of it's prosperity as a
towns in the tributary territory,
which. In turn, rests directly on the
prosperity OF the farmer and producer.
A real reciprocity treaty between the
rural cities and towns and Omaha car
ried out in good faith by all sides
would be a winner.

Labor unions in Government Service

Labor Unions in Government Service.
President Taft's address in Harris
burg takes a decided stand against the
organization Of labor unions among
employees in government service. He
favors organization for mutual benefit
and betterment, but unequivocally OPP
poses labor union principles based on
concerted action through strikes and
boycotts to enforce demands made
upon the employer, who in this case
is the government, and cites the de-
plorable consequences Of the strike of
government employees in France as a
conclusive object lesson.
President Taft does not exaggerate
the evils of leaving the government at
the mercy OF civil service employees
banded together in labor unions
threatening to stop the wheels unless
conceded their demands, Irrespective
of merit or justice. The extreme
example would be such labor union
among the soldiers in the army or
commands OF their superior officers
until grievances presented through a
walking delegate should be redressed,
That, of course, would be mutiny, and
punishable as treason under the laws
Of war and not to be tolerated for an
instant But a strike of railway mail
clerks, or revenue collectors, or United
States deputy marshals, would be
equally serious. and differ only in
degree.
Yet the right of every government
service employee by himself, or in con-
junction with others, to make COM
plant against bad treatment or objec-
tionable conditions of employment
should be in some way safeguarded
and must not be denied. In the rail-
way brotherhoods this object has been
in a measure accomplished by the
recognition of grievance committees
representing the men and empowered
to treat with representatives of the
railway companies for adjustment of
differences at stated periods of the
year.
We believe that some similar sys-
tenn as this can be, and should be,
worked out for government service
employees whereby the various
branches could have representatives
on a grievance committee dealing d.
rectly with the heads of the govern
ment department instead of through
subordinate bureaucrats, or irrespon-
sible underlings pulled up with mag
mary power. Such a session on ac-
cumulated grievances held once or
twice each year, would make the ma
chinery of government run more
smoothly and proved ssafety-valve
without resort to strikes and boycotts,
because the people want to do the
right thing by their public servants,
and no real abuse or injustice would
remain long unremedied after once
known and aired.

Crops.

The government forecast gives hope
for another record-breaking crop year
It estimates the aggregate value Of all
farm products this year at s,926 ,O0O,-
600. which exceeds last years figures
by S1O4,00O,O0O. Yet it was felt that
last years was a maximum limit. Back
Of this official forecast some statistics
have become available through COM
mercial sources in New York that re-
fleet a remarkable advance on the
farm this year, confirming the popu-
lar opinion that thus far this has been
a nearly perfect growing season Win
ter wheat, for instance, for which last
year such general apprehension was
felt, and justly so. shows marked i'm
provement in condition as compared
with one year ago. The most con-
spicuous change, it so happens, Is
right here in Nebraska, together with
Missouri and Kansas. three of the
leading winter wheat states. On May
1, 1910, the condition of this cereal in
Nebraska. taking 100 per cent as per-
feet, was 81 per cent, while this year
on May 1t was IS per cent; in Mis-
souri, a year ago it was 70, this year
90; in Kansas a year ago it was 65,
this year rs.
The research made shows that this
year also a much smaller area of win
ter wheat land has been abandoned
because of the failure of the seed
through unfavorable weather condi-
tions. Out of a total of 34,4s5,O 900
acres sown last fall 31,367,OO0 are
reported as under winter wheat on
May 1. This is a loss of only per
cent, whereas year ago the loss was
13 per cent, leaving the area in cult
walton on May 1, 1910, only 24,427,-
900 acres. The Department of Agri-
culture, for the first time, computes
cumulative estimate of the winter
wheat yield per acre this year, fixing
its figure, on the basis of Eve years
results, at 1876 bushels per acre, or a
total OF 4S9,325,20O bushels. These
facts and figures must have the effect
of discounting anything that savors of
hard times talk in this western coun-
try this year.

statute as Good as a Fence,

Boston Transcript
The supreme court has decided that a
federal statute is as good as federal
fence against strespassing on the national
forest reserves. This saves Uncle Sam the
cost Of huilding millions Of miles Of fences,
while serving notice on the cattle barons
that they are wsnton trespassers liable TO
punishment IL they drive their herds upon
the unfenced acres. The forest reserves be-
long to the whole nation for which con-
gress is trustee-such is the burden Of the
conservation decision.
