At the Bottom Of the Barrel.

Wednesday, June 80. 1915, found the treas
urer OF the United States scraping the bottom Of
the barrel for money to meet the ordinary run
ming expenses OF the government On that day
the treasury was empty, and the exact size Of
the deficit depended on the amount Of money
that would be brought in by the days collec-
lions. This can not as yet be told accurately
but the best estimates OF the deficit place It at
$50, 900, 0OO When It is remembered that two
years ago the democrats found a surplus OF $751;
900, 900 in the governments strong box, the ef
ticiency with which they attacked the duties Of
administration can be we'll understood. Expen-
ditures have been increased in every direction
and revenues decreased. and this latter in spite
Of the new expedients OF an income tax and a
war tax, specially levied in time Of peace. These
facts need exposition; they are eloquent Of
democratic ncapscity and failure.

Georgia to Vindicate the Law.

Indictment OF members OF the mob on charge
OF rioting suggests that the people OF Atlanta
disapprove of the unseemly demonstrations
made there recently. Mobs. as a rule. are not
composed Of the responsible elements of society,
and 1t is hardly probable that the crowds that
surrounded the home of Governor Slaton we're
exceptional in quality. In connection with this.
the remarks OF the judge in charging the grand
jury that indicted the rioters are of interest as
showing in a measure what Georgia has had to
support. He said:
The people OF this county have had much to
bear In the last two years. much their in
dignation and resentment They have had fake and
mountehank detectives imported and efforts made
to impeach the verdict of a Jury by perjury Our
courts have been carfcature by papers outside the
state. In Georgia very few journals have raised
their voice in defense OF the courts. with one or
two notable exceptions the of Georgia has
mained silent
If Georgia has suffered in this matter, the
blame first OF all is on its own citizens whose
disorderly action brought disgrace to the state.
The courts OF Georgia can clear away much OF
the cause for criticism by dealing sternly with
the unruly. and proving to the world that law
and order still rule in the state and its several
communities.

No Honor for Huerta.

Secretary Garrison very naturally expresses
amazement that any marked courtesy should be
shown to Victoriano Huerta by the army officers
At El Paso 1t is highly improper for one branch
of the government service to honor a man who
Is held prisoner by another, so, IL the stories
that have been told Of the dinners given the
Mexican leader are accurate the rebuke from
the secretary OF war is we'll earned by the Off
GERS concerned. II is quite likely the reports
from El Paso have been highly colored. Army
men, as a rule are we'll aware OF the obligation
resting on them as representatives of the gov
ernment and are quite strict in the observation
Of the punctilo Of army etiquette. This makes
It improbable that any particular attention has
been shown to Huerta. The former Mexican die
tator will be treated as gently as circumstances
permit, but will not be lionized in any part Of
the United States.

Case of the Armenian.

The presence of Americans aboard the yes
sci under the British flag alone adds interest to
the sinking OF the freighter Armenian and its
cargo of mules AS the Armenian under
charter to the British government, and engaged
on admiralty business at the time IL was sunk,
the affair is one between the British and Ger
man governments alone, and no great concern OF
the United States. Americans who take service
with the British government in connection with
the war do so at their own risk. Had the Ar
lnenian been sailing an unarmed merchant
man. its destruction might have complicated the
question between the United States and Ger
many. Detailed reports given out in Washing
ton, from British sources, indicate that the cap
tain OF the submarine regarded very fully all the
requirements OF law in his attack summoning
the commander Of the Armenian to surrender,
and only firing on the vessel when IT attempted
to elude capture This supports what was lately
set out. that the Germans are showing an in
clination TO observe the rules a little closer in
their submarine practice

Make Full Use of the Parks.

The time to make full use Of the parks is
in the summer months when outdoor life is at
its highest and weather conditions most inviting.
city like Omaha has millions OF dollars
invested in its parks and Fairgrounds for the
public benefit on which returns commensurate
with the outlay be had only II utilized by all
the people for their intended purposes. In va
riety of attractions and convenience of location,
the parks at the disposal OF the people here in
Omaha are quite equal TO what is offered in
other cities. even where they have more parks
and larger parks.
Our advice for both young and old is: Get
the park habit. Enjoy the park beauties while
they last at every opportunity.
