The Note, and the Fntnre.

About the only points that are clear In the
replies from Germany and Great Britain to the
notes sent from the United States are that
neither OF the belligerents has any intention OF
Immediately changing its announced policy for
dealing with neutral shipping. and that each is
willing to correspond further with the United
states government on the issues. More or less
than this was scarcely to be expected. Whether
the apprehension expressed at washington in
advance of full knowledge OF the text OF the Ger
man note is warranted may be questioned
Earl Grey, with the traditions Of British
diplomatic effort to support him, discusses every
think but the main question. Great Britain,
true to its past, hangs on to its own interpreta-
ton OF the rights OF neutrals, and declines to
discuss at present phases OF the question that
we're sufficiently irritating century ago to
cause war between that nation and the United
States. The matter then left undecided is still
open, and apparently will remain open II the de-
termination of the question must depend upon
the British government.
Germany is scarcely more candid than Great
Britain in meeting the issue raised Reitera-
ting the intention TO sink enemy merchantmen,
and again setting forth the difficulty Of distin-
gushing between an enemy ship and neutral
Germany naively suggests a course It is easy to
see can not De adopted by the Onlteu SIdtes "
any other neutral nation. Two principal objec-
tons lie against the proposal that warships ac-
company merchantmen OF neutral nations. In
the first place, as pointed out at Amsterdam,
such a course would enhance the danger to mer-
chantmen not conveyed. Again, It would be
tantamount to a guaranty of the neutral quality
of the cargo, guaranty which no nation is in
position to give.
While the replies as given to the public are
unsatisfactory in the main, each is accompanied
by an invitation for further correspondence and
this is certain to be had. The rejoinder of the
United States will not be hastily made, nor until
the significance OF the notes at hand has been
thoroughly analysed Neither Germany nor Great
Britain is in position to deliberately forfeit the
friendly interest OF the United States, which
makes 1t positively certain that neither is going
TO do anything to bring about a rupture of re-
lations. For this reason it may be confidently
believed that the situation is not SO grave as to
justify any gloomy conclusions.

Not Polite, but Economics.

Such Omaha elements as customarily align
their influence along the track Of their individ-
ual interests are Just now very busy trying to
convince the legislature that opposition to SEN
ate Fue No. ia based on purely political
grounds. This is but one feature OF campaign
OF Misrepresentation now being carried on to
further the project.
The truth of the matter is that whatever OBJ
lection might be raised against the political as
pect OF the bill Is so small when compared with
the economic objections that Il is really insig-
nificant. Control OF the lighting system would
hardly enable the present Water board and its
boss to exert greater political influence than is
already ascribed to them. But there is grave
doubt as to whether II would be either prudent
or expedient to hamper the administration OF
The affairs OF the Water District by entanglne
il with the business OF furnishing electricity for
lighting and power purposes. This Is a business
entirely separate and distinct in itself. and has
no relation whatever to the business OF provid-
ing water for public uses, except that both are
classified under the general heading of public
utilities"
| Again The Bee urges on the legislators to
keep in mind always that Omaha already has
| the power to enter the business OF municipal
ownership OF a lighting plant whenever the citi.
gems desire. Further legislation on this point il
not required Is-it good public policy to put
the control of all public utilities in the hands Of
one board?

The Lien Law and the Builders.

The lien law of this state has been stretched
beyond the bounds Of reason and justice for the
protection OF material men. As the courts have
interpreted the law, the building owner is at the
mercy OF crooked sub-contractors and dealers OF
whose existence he may not be aware. and is
Obliged in seif-defense to examine all bills for
material delivered on his premises. This is espe-
eially unjust to home builders who in most In
stances are unfamiliar with the lien law. AS a
matter of justice and fair play all round material
men should be required to serve notice on the
owner IL they expect him to pay directly for
material delivered on his premises

THE POWER OF LITTLE THINGS

A little far-off pinkish cloud
A-floating Ger a wall of gray
Can make a mountala-range OF cares
In the dim distance melt away.
A little star that wrinkles bright
And brighter yet as fades the day
Can make my troubles like the hours
OF daylight slip and fade away
A little bird that sings and sings,
Then sings again for very glee
Can waken joys deep. deep within,
And drown the worlds discord for me.

What south omaha May Expect.
SOUTH OMAHA, Feb. 1A--To the
Editor Of The Bee: In talking with a
leading member of the Commercial club
OF Omaha. a man Of commanding inf1u-
cence. a few days ago he told me that
the people OF South Omaha do not realize
what is in store for this part of Omaha
or they would be almost unanimously
for the Howell bill He said one of the
first things will be a division of Omaha
into three high school districts, one for
the northern part OF the consolidated city
one for the central part and one for the
southern part and that the South Omaha
High school building will be enlarged TO
hold the pupils who will be sent there
under the new arrangement.
He said further that frequently and in
fact nearly every day men representing
new industries look for new locations
and when they are not satisfied with
Omaha locations they are told OF South
Omaha locations, but refuse to come here
because It is not a part of Omaha. He
said IL we were a part OF Omaha that
many industries win be added to the in
dustries Of this locality.
We all know that all Of the big institu-
tons Of south Omaha today have on
their letterheads the name OF Omaha.
Few people outside Of the state OF Ne
braska know there is such a place as
South Omaha.
Instead OF being called South Omaha
when we become a part Of Omaha we
can be called the South Side. l see no
objection in that. The South Omaha man
who says Il will be Unconstitutional for
the legislature to pass the Howell act
for the consolidation OF the two cities
would be for annexation today II he did
not set a little repair work TO do for the
city occasionally.
Nearly every person opposed TO the
consolidation has some personal reason
for being opposed to IL. while the great
body Of the residents OF South omahS
are strongly for the passage OF tbs
Howell bill. Those who talk about

vote on the question does not chang,
