Womnn ina No Field

Woman has invaded another field
that man has heretofore considered his
exclusively A young woman, Miss
Daisy Ogden, has been made division
superintendent Of a territory on the
Burlington railroad between Water
town, ILL.,, and Betterdorf. Ia. She had
to pass a good many men in rising to
her position and did It by superior
service. The company must have
found that Miss Ogden would make q
better division superintendent than
any man It had avaiiable for the place
or 1t would not have given Il to her.
So let the men not resent her advance
ment, nor grudginsly give her their
best service.
This IL rather an innovation for
woman, but 1t may open the way to
others for similar positions in railroad
work. Some years ago a movement
set in against young women as clerks
and stenOgrsphers in big railroad
headquarters and embargoes we're
established by few companies. Is II
possible that general managers or
superintendents foresaw what might
happen and began to fear for their
own Jobs? Woman holds up her side
fairly well in nearly every vocation
where she is fairly pitted against man.
There is little chance today for the old
fogy notion that man 10 naturally
womans peer. No telling to what
station this division superintendent OF
some of her sisters may yet rise, for

Improve the Breed ~ Horses

Horses and mules should be a good
crop" for most any farmer to raise.
They continue to advance in price, de-
spite the fact that they have been
supplsnted In 80 many ways by the
automobile. As fast as they are crowded
out OF one line OF service, however,
they find a new one opening up TO
them and the supply is by no means
equal to the demand Down in Mis-
souri,, the typical mule state, those
handsome animals are worth from 30
TO so per cent more today than they
have been for ten years, and horses
are correspondingly higher in price.
Why then, is not this a good time
for the farmers and horse and mule
raisers to turn their attention to i'm
proving the breeds OF their animalsY
Why, while raising them, can they not
still increase the market value by put
ting their better stock on the market?
With Just little more attention much
improvement could be wrought, even
though the stock at present be ever
so good. This is the day of intensive
farming, and IL must also be made the
day Of intensive live stock production

Il Look, Like Fnrtifieation


The administration recommends
ton for fertilization OF the Panama
canal has been approved by the house
The sundry civil appropriations bill
contains an item OF $4,000, 900 as the
first installment toward cost. This
measure passed by a large majority.
Fertilization is the only policy com
patible with present conditions. It
is conditions and not theories with
which we are dealing. Not the wish
that all nations would engage In dis
armament, but the fact that they do
not must be the controlling influence.
The canal will be the gateway to the
Pacific and the Pacific will eventually
be, as Seward years ago predicted, the
chief theater OF events in the worlds
great hereafter" And the belief grows
that the real peril confronting the
United States In the control of the Pa
cifie is not the so-called yellow peril"
but the danger of the ambition of
white races. There are plenty Of far
sighted men who believe that Seward
was right and who believe that al
though the day he predicted has not
yet come, when It does come war will
not have ceased to be one of the COM
mon arbitraments to which nations re-
sort II so, our nation cannot afford
not to fortify this gateway to the Pa
ciflc in which It is to engage with the
other great powers OF the world for
supremacy.
Men may argue as they will about
this being a commercial highway, and
1t is, but it is too well known to be
disputed that the first thought of
digging the canal contemplated a
strengthening Of our military and
naval defences. Fortifieations, then,
becomes but a complement to the main
enterprise.
Omaha daily bee., 1911-02-27

Now as we get on from the scene
and take perspective view OF San
FrancIsco's fight for the Panama ex-
position, we may be able to compre-
bend the indomitable energy and en-
terprise of that great city. To raise
money enough to promote and main
tain the exposltion--they raised $17,-
100000 with the states aid-was in
itself a task that might have daunted
ordinary people, but San Franciscans
disposed Of that as a minor detail, or
incident, TO the main object. They
asked congress for not one penny,
willing TO raise and risk everything
themselves. This, we say, might have
staggered and overcome another city,
but we do not even then get the full
force of It all until we remember that
San Francisco had Just arisen from
the pail of catastrophe that all but
swept 1t out of existence.
1t seems like the stupendous task
Of rebuilding the city from the ruins
Of $500, 100000 loss would have
been enough to satisfy even San Fran
ciscans' ambition for big things, but
apparently 1t only whetted it a little.
SO. we say. that great as was the UNI
dertaking OF raising this S17,5OO, 900
and OF carrying on the fight for the
fair, that of itself was but one step in
the way that lies between San Fran
cisco and the completion OF this inter
national exposition. The really big
work is yet to come in the construc-
ton and equipment OF the plant-the
scores of buildings that must comprise
the fair And all the divers and de-
vious problems and perplexities that
this will involve is Titanic. Truly
San Francisco's lie a grim courage.
It was the late e. H. Hartman who.
when asked If he thought San Fran
cisco as a city would ever be rebuilt
after the 1905 disaster, said.
! The future Of San Francisco is certain
1t is not a question Of whether the city will
be rebuilt as strong as It was before. sar
Francisco 10 as essential to the Pacific
coast as New York Is TO the Atlantic. The
conditions that make It so are not in tn,
keeping Of man.
Mr. Hartman was not given to
rhapsodies. He made predictions on
the basis OF cool calculation. I'm
doubtedly the world agrees with him
in his vision Of the future OF San Fran
cisco. That is why It seems folly for
other cities on the Pacific coast to inn
agine, because they seem to be in
ereasing their population, that they
are rivals Of this wonderful city. II
has no more of rival out there as the
gateway to the orient than New York
has as the metropolis of the Atlantic.

Circumstances Alter Casss.

Early in the New York senatorial
contest Governor Dix was urged to
interpose his influence against Tam

place, but he refused, saying:
The constitution prescribes that the stat,
legislature shall elect the United States
senators and 1 believe no man has a righ
TO interp0se his influence. bdlieve in con
stitutionai government
Splendid, so far as II went. But re-
Gently the governor held long confer
enoes with Boss" Murphy Of Tam
many in his executive office at Albany.
He was quoted as saying that he was
anxious to see the deadlock broken
and a good man elected senator.
The governor, then. evidently be-
lieves that circumstances alter cases
and that principles, which We are told
are eternal, are subject to change
under changing conditions. Appar-
emily the governor has been convinced
by the events of the last two months
that Tammany cannot elect AIR. shee-
han and thinks that interfering now
will not spoil any chance Tammany
may have had.

Progressive Democrats Nsxt


Anyone who watches the signs of
the times cannot fail to see portents
OF the movement for the organization
Of progressive democrats along the
same line as the recently inaugurated
movement Of progressive republicans.
Mr.. Bryan In his Commoner draws the
parallel anew between the movement
of the progressive republicans and the
movement begun by the free silver
democrats in 1895 to get control Of
the democratic party and expresses
the hope that the DrogressiVes will
control both parties, with this addi-
tional warning:
The men who ate and drank and cele-
brated at Baltimore should give special at
tentiOn TO the Progressive Republican
league. II they Cthe Baltimore crowd sue
coed in nominating a Wall street democrat
and the progresslves put up a real progress
sive republican. the democratic ticket will
come out worse than It did in 1904 Keen
your eye on the Progressive Republican
league; and, by the way Is It not about
time for the progressive democrats to get
TO work.
The assumption that the republicans
in the coming campaign are TO be torn
by fractional strife, while the demo-
cratic enemy presents solid and un-
divided phalanx, is rash and ahead Of
the game.

World Herald,
We think 80, too, only the Water
boards troubles fell 80 thick and fast
and come 30 high, and the bills have
to be met by the taxpayers. The
Water board has now for eight years
been doing nothing but draw its sala-
ries and pile up lawyers' fees, court
costs and judgments payable out Of
the taxpayers pockets. What the
World-Herald says now is to be con-
trasted with what It ssid eight years
ago:
The Bee points out that tho members Of
the water commission will begin to draw
their pay within thirty days. although II
may be thirty months before the commits
sion will have any water works to manage
or before the water commissioner has aEy
more to do than to draw his salary" In
the first place, the Howell bill contemplates
that Omaha shall be in immediate posses
sion Of the water works plant. Every in
telligent man must recognize that this is q
great Undertaking. and IL the members OF
this water commission approach the dis
charge OF their duty in a patriotic spirit
they will earn every dollar Of their pay
even though they were appointed tomorrow
and were not required 70 assume control Of

To be sure, we all have our troubles.

quent events and OF the fact that the
