How Bryan
Has Qualified

Ii looks today more than ever as
if Colonel BBryan will be invited to
become secretary Of state. The APP
pointmcnt would be excellent tor
several reasons.
Mr.. Wilson is looking for progress
siye men to fill the big positions IN
his administration. and Mr., Bryan Is
one OF them. II account is taken OF
services rendered to the party PRIOR
to the last campaign. the Nebraskan
is certainly entitled to a place OF dis
tinction under the President-elect,
II all the years Colonel Bryan has
worked for the Democracy preceding
1912 are forgotten. still his fight at
Baltimore against the bosses and the
Interests" to say nothing OF ms
stumping tou in October, would
seem to make it incumbent upon
Gosernor Wilson to offer him an
important position.
The President-elect would prove
that his sense OF gratitude is as keen
as il should be ii he invited Mr..
Bryan to his cabinet.

Fixes the Rate

The Assembly yesterday passed a
bill fixing the rate oil interest to be
charged by any bank or banker or
money ender at II per cent per an
mum, or one per cent per month
The bill passed after a lively argu'
ment, in which it was stated that
some money lenders had cxacted as
high as 5 per cen per month. or on
per cent a year The bill is aimed
for just such people. There is a
limit even to money lending and in
terest. Any time II per cent a year
is grabbed for interest, it is enough.
The original bill called for 10 per
cent, but was amended to the IL
point. Nevada has been without a
standard per centage Of interest, be-
ing one of the few states that allows
and legalizes usuary in loans. This
new rate scheme is among the just
laws so far proposed in the legisla-
ture this year.

Clearing the Decks

OF time, must be disposed of for the
session in order to get down to other
business.
The fact that there has been an
active lobby for and against IN both
cases interferes with other work that
