Not Forward. but backward.

The resolution Of the local bar association
favoring a return to the supreme court commits
sion system strikes us as a step backward when
we should go forward.
True there Is a severe congestion OF cases
on the supreme docket, but our experience with
a supreme court commission on two former oc-
casions was not such as to encourage us to re-
sort to the same makeshift again. The first
commission as we recall It. was made up by
appointment OF the governor, and the appoint
ments we're naturally prompted by political con-
siderations while the second commission, with
membership chosen by the supreme court,
suited in a distribution Of the places so that
each judge named one commissioner in rotation
by the same plan that they would have selected
three special masters referees. The compost
ton OF the commission, however. was open to
less objection than the character OF their work
nothing they did being accepted as final and
nearly every case of Importance going to re-
hearing, either before another branch OF the
commission or before the judges themselves.
The hodgepodge OF reversals, contradictions and
unreconciable opinions that put the Nebraska
supreme court reports further below par than
ever. covers the supreme court commission.
The laws delays due TO accumulation OF
supreme court cases. is a serious and intoler-
able evil that calls for remedy. But we cannot
persuade ourselves that the re-establishment of
the supreme court commission is the only rem
edy or the best remedy or that 1t would be
permanent remedy. especially when there are
other ways TO deal with this situation-ways
that have proved eminently successful in other
states that have no larger supreme court than
ours

In view OF these facts am at loss to
understand how Mr. Weybright figures
that Germany should be forced to later
reimburse any nation now helping the
Belgiums. In fact he doesn't seem to
realize that the present outrageous
slaughter IN Europe Is Ensland's own
making instead of Germany. and that its

to accomplish this end and thus make II

Consistent in One Place.

President Wilson may not act consistently
with all that Woodrow Wilson, the author, or
DR.. Wilson. the university executive taught con-
corning government but in the matter Of the
presidents power OF appointment there seems
to be perfect harmony. Said Mr.. Wilson in
THE State" written In 1889:
The constitution vests in the president the power
OF appointment, subject 70 Limitation except tho
possible advice and consent OF the senate Any act
which assumes 10 prescribe tho manner in which the
president shall mako his choice public servants
must. therefore, be merely advisory; the president
may accept It's directions as he pleases Tho
only force that hold him TO the of Its
principle IL the force of public opinion.
Certain senator's. among them Reed and
Stone OF Missouri. O'Gorman of New York, even
MARITIME of New Jersey, IL not our own demo-
cratic senator from Nebraska, are doubtless
ready to agree that here Is one place In which
President Wilson is keeping the faith of Author
Wilson to the very dot 1t may be one OF the
fortutous circumstances In the course of demo-
cratic administrations for the president to fall
out with the senate over patronage, but even So
the fact remains that President Wilson is con-
sistent on this point, at least. with the stern
liberalism Of good Scotch-Irish Presbyterian.

Although it failed OF enactment, bill sug-
gested by The Bee. and sponsored by Represen-
tative Smith. in the last session OF our Nebraska
legislature. aiming to do away with nepOtism in
public office, struck a popular chord by striking
a fragrant abuse. Because a man is elected to
office. It does not follow that the people COM
missioned him to saddle upon the payroll his
brother, sister. wife. son or daughter. although
that seems to be the way many public officers
have construed it, The fact that a man or
woman has a relationship connection with some
one in the public service. should not be a bar to
competitive positions awarded for merit, but
neither should IL be assurance OF special
favor in preferment and promotion. For obvious
reasons, public office is family snap" is Just
odious as public office is a private snap"
The anti-nepotism bill should be brought out
again in the coming legislature. and written on
the statute books

A Vanishing Bribe

President Ripley of the Santa Fe railroad
has forbidden employees OF his road receiving
Christmas presents from equipment supply
houses, issuing the ultimatum in the following
letter:
Most individuals and companies dealing In railroad
supplies have given up the practice OF sending Christ
mas presents to railroad employees and officials.
However TO certain extent the practice in
this practice. have discouraged II, and glad that
II Is decreasing. ] want Santa Fe men TO take such
action seems proper to eliminate IL entirely

have any value. The high standing enjoyed by Santa
Fe makes II all the more desirable that the
practice
AS President Ripley says. this graft-breed-
ing custom is gradually disappearing. It is
one Of the many vanishing forms OF polite brib-
cry that once figured largely in the "old order
of railroad management. or course, II seems
quite harmless for a friend who happens to be
the purchasing agent of a railroad to receive
and accept a nice Christmas present from o
friend who is connected with an equipment sup
ply house. II Is just a friendly token, and yet
how natural It's pressure on the purchasing
agent to stretch point in favor OF this present.
giving friend when the time come to recprocate.
President Ripley puts II very tactfully when
he says that the Understanding of the railroad
questionable practice cease. Surely. the old
order changeth. and as our humorist friend puts
IT, "Tempus does fugit."

4 chapter on the War.

BEATRICE. Neb., Dec 24-To the Ed
itor of The Bee: To write OF a subject
where the scene is laid thousands of
miles away requires one 20 use his imag-
NATIVE powers as resources TO draw from.
The actual results OF the war picture as
portrayed in the daily papers furnish the
text about the war in the far east and
its magnitude
That the results in awful destruction
and restitution left in its wake has
struck responsive chord in the hearts
OF ''our own free America" Is also evident
All over the land do we find shipments
OF tons of food, breadstuffs and clothing
for those whose homes have been devas-
tated by the cold and cruel hand of a
''causeless war by what was once rec
ognized as civilized nations.
Commendable indeed is this spirit Of
our folks TO thus remember the poor and
needy ones in darkest hours. The Christ
mas ship was indeed happy thought
But let us stop and consider what we are
contributing to. One Of the requirements
OF war is that the best young men must
be sent to the front in battle array with
instructions to die for the country, II
need be. Today the odor of the best
blood of the land Of foreign countries
stinks to heaven. and why? In the
United States we find hearts bleeding In
sympathy for conditions set forth above
Where social conditions and sharp COM
petition is imposing a new tax on the
people. There is an army of unemployed
men with families that need assistance.
We have our giants OF finance with null
tiplied millions, while others with less
power in earning capacity in struggle
for existence in a reasonable degree.
Are not we as a nation contributing to
the delinquencies Of nations whose spirit
Is out Of harmony with the teachings of
Him who once came into the world and
said, Peace on earth and good will
toward menu" Let us ever remember and
never forget charity should begin at
home, and let warning nations wash their
hands OF their own blood end beat their
swords into plowshares and learn to war
no more. T. J. HILDEBRAND.
