il was explained that tan midsaip-
men were recommended for dismissal
for having been convicted OF more
than one ofrense Of hazing. but that
the offenses were not so aggravated
In the cases Of the four midshipmen
who are to be suspended fox one year
without pay. The midshtpmen who
are turned back to tho next lower
class were found guilty OF only one
case of hazing. These midshi PINE

are suspended for one year will be
required to spend that time away

This action said Secretary DAN

minat!on that hazing of all kinds Is
to be ended at the Naval Academy.
There In no room at the academy for
any man who cannot obey the law

been estimated that II costs s12, 900 TO

navy the first duty IL 10 obey orders.
If at the academy d man cannot obey
the orders of the superintendent and
an act of Congress, he demonstrates
that he lacks the first and essential
quality required OF naval officer.

for their own sins But all others at
the academy will take notice that haz-
ing has ended. II there is any mid

wireless engineers.

Thn Ies,on Of the Storm.

Details coming in from the towns Of Texas
that bore the brunt Of the hurricane that swept
the gulf coast on Monday night do not lessen
terror inspired by the first reports. Loss OF
life has been less. for the reason that warn
iugs had been given in ample time, and people
soon sought such shelter as was available. but
the damage to property lie extensive, and the
full extent is not yet known. The old expert
ence OF the sparrow that built its nest in the
spout is recalled by this tragic episode. No
place in the world is immune from the mastery
Of the uncomfortable forces of nature. Hur-
ricanes periodically sweep the Gulf Of Mexico,
laying waste the coastal country for may miles,
and man returns as soon as the storm subsidies,
to renew his habitation and HIS works. This
process has been going on during uncounted
centuries, and will continue.
The storm has no lesson for man, who dares
nature in every cline, and is not discouraged
when baffled by the manifestation OF power he
does not comprehend. This is the strife through
which he has attained to his emlnence in crea-
ton. and out Of which will come his greater
triumph

Pasta This in Your Hat.

The tax levy Just made for next year Ia with
In fraction OF 100 mills on the dollar Of
sessed valuation of all taxable property in
Omaha, which, at the one-flfth valuation, means
two per cent Of the full appraisement. and is
the top-notch record for taxes In all the history
of this city.
In this connection let the property owner
ponder carefully the following, and paste 1t in
has hat for future reference when the tax bills
come due:
l. The school tax Of rs mills is the maxi
permitted by law. II calls for at least
100000 more than needs to be collected by
taxes. The budget on which It is based ignores
$4,000 OF assured revenue from other sources.
and includes $4,000 for school buildings for
which s1.0O0,OOO OF bonds have already been
voted, TO say nothing OF numerous other items
which could be readily dispensed with.
2. The Water board has insisted upon tax
levy to produce $4,000, presumably TO pay for
hydrant rental and fire protection. while It is
boasting Of the surplus II is piling up. The Wa
ter board could have gotten along without any
water fund tax whatever. and has no justifica-
ton for increasing its 100000 tax by so per
cent.
3. The city council has exacted the maxi
mum rate for every division of the municipal
government. Under the law permitting a spe-
cial levy OF mot TO exceed one and one-half
mills" for new equipment for the fire depart
nent It has demanded the full one and one
half mills Under the law providing for bond
redemption fund OF mot less than $50 900 nor
more than $4,000" II is demanding the full
amount OF 81 $4,000. For the library fund, whose
limit was raised from $4,000 to $4,000, the
maximum has been levied, being an increase
o. So per cent The council has provided for
the entire budget by a tax levy without refer
ence to increases in revenues from other sources,
namely, the road fund apportionment, interest
earnings, permit and inspection fees, occupation
taxes, subway taxes. etc, aggregating over
100000 The city tax levy could easily have
been held down $2b0.O00
Z. The combined tax rate on Omaha property
is easily 10 mills. o per cent higher than the
real requirements.
