JITNE BUSINESS

The American influence IN the owner
ship Of jitne cars in the puriic service
in FL Paso has altered considerably
during the pas year and the percentage
has changed from Sc % percent in
favor Of the Americans TO 80 percent
in favor Of the Mexicans. The num-
Der of Mexican drivers is considerably
larger. There are 365 licenses TO drive
in effect while the record of bonded

1t cannot be said that the jitne serv-
ice is on the decline There have been
constant changes in the ranks, but a
constant increase in the number Of cars
that are being used. The service be-

daily accumulation OF from four TO
five cars.
At the city hall. where the licenses

instead OF near the curb. driving on
the wrong side OF the street. or ignor-

the 30 offenders disclosed two Ameri-

An increasing number OF street acct

Germany makes Amends.

Germany has apparently ended a serious dip
iOmatic situation by complete and unreserved
qulescence In the demands Of the American gov
Crnment, so far as the Arabic case is concerned.
The imperial German government Acknowledges
that the captain OF the submarine disregarded
hiF orders and disavows his action. promising
TO pay indemnity for the American lives and
property lost through the captains misconduct.
This will set at rest the matter of the Arabic,
though bringing us back to the Lusitania case.
In giving the orders, recently quoted, to It's
submarine commanders that they must make
sure OF the enemy status OF vessels before at
lacking. TO observe further the regulation of
visit and search, and insure the safety of pas
sengers and crews Of vessels sunk. the German
submarine warfare is brought fairly within the
scope OF humane warfare. II there is such
thing. With these points conceded, 1t may not
be 80 difficult for the German government to
rtoede from its position on the Lusitsnia attack,
and so remove the remaining Indictment TO fric-
ton in the relations between the two countries.

The old.Fashionsd Doctor.

An old-fashioned doctor has Just been laid at
rest in Omaha, his casket followed to the grave
by the sorrowing hearts of multitude OF people,
old and young TO whose physical and mental all
ments he had ministered during long and use
full life, II is no dispsragement to the new man
of science. who prescribes for OF operates upon
suffering humanity. to say he will never build
for himself temples in the hearts OF grateful
patients such az we're occupied by his forebears
under the sign of Aesculapius The Hippocratc
oath is still as sonorous OF sound and as binding
In sentiment as ever, but the intimacy between
doctor and patient is no longer possible under
modern conditions.
The old-faahioned doctor was more than
friend and more than confessor he was the rod
and the staff TO support and comfort the afflicted
IN their bodily torments and weaknesses. His
word was law. as his sympathy was sure, and
his DEVOTION was equalled only by that OF the
mother in its self effacement. No night too dark
os stormy. no road too long or broken for him
to travel abroad, responding to the faintest call
for aid as to the trumpet sounding forth his
duty He prospered indfferenty, for he seldom
kept books; he was not business man. but an
evange OF the healing science, his mission to
mitigate human woe, TO soften human life, and
to lengthen mans days In the land. His patience
was inexhaustlble. his courage dauntless, his
faith in humanity unshakable ana his work the
most, blessed ever done by man.
The new doctor has the skin, the learning.
the courage and the patience OF his predecessor.
but his very science sets him apart. and be he
never so devoted to his profession, honorable
above all the rest, he may never hope to win
the place held by the old-fashioned doctor In
the heart OF the people.

The School Board ia Right.

The majority members OF the Omaha School
board deserve commentator and support for
firmly adhering to the position that the constl-
tuition OF Nebraska bars religious instruction in
the schools. no matter in what disguise II may
seek admission
This is not question whether the Billy"
Sunday preaching is doing good or harm, nor
whether is Is UNCONVENTIONAL OF multi-denomina-
tional. nor whether Il peases one class OF par
ents and offends another class of parents, and
II is not a question to what has been done, or
nay be done In other cties-at least, not wholly
any one OF these things--but of the plain and
ralpable fact that to keep the public schools
from being used to propagate any religious de-
nomination or any system OF religious teaching,
the constitution closes the door altogether.
Knowing how strong the pressure has been upon
the School board members in this matter from
jealous, though we believe mistaken, evangelical
sssocIation enthusiasts, their final determination
to adhere strictly to the letter and spirit Of the
law shows devotion TO a real conviction which
cannot be compromised and must strengthen
the board as a while In the public esteem.
