Awaiting An Outlet.

On the east there is a strip of high
plateau-prairie land, on the bluffs, Is
miles wide on the average, measuring
to the nearest railroad. This land is
hardly less productive than the bot
toms, and is thickly settled, with a
number of good towns at intervals
along the route, which now have no
railroad, and which would grow like
Jonah's grord If an interurban came
their way. From this plateau. good
roads extend into the bottoms at
easy grades, and as the loads would
be all hauled down hill to the new
road, the grades would be a benefit
rather than detriment.
Thus there is a strip approximate
iy twenty miles wide, of the most
productive territory in this country.

GETTING Back.

The dinner OF republicans at Lincoln may be
taken as indicative of the spirit that now ami
mates the party in Nebraska. Getting back"
is not q problem OF strategy or tactics, but
merely q question OF time. The people are rap
idly firing Of the failure Of the democrats t.
make good on any OF their promises save tho
one that they would, as far as possible, smash
up all the republican party had constructed.
SO far, the smashing up process has been very
complete and very successful. State and nation
alike suffer from the effects Of the experiment Of
allowing the democrats to try their theories OF
government. Congressman Sloan mildly pictures
the outcome in these words:
Two years ago turned 20 the democratic
party the country at the MONDAY OF its existence
with all departments IN good condition. but today
after only two years Of power. we find a depleted
treasury and every department in trouble
Divisions among republicans are rapidly dis.
appearing, and its united forces will surely re-
store to power the party OF truly progressive
policies. More than mere party success is in
volved in the approaching campaign. The des-
tiny Of the country rests with the republican
party, and Il is the future that concerns the
voter. more than the past. The signs Of change
are multiplying

The Mechanics Of the City Election.

Confronted with an important city election
only few days off, our people seem by their
lstlessness to be largely unprepared for meeting
liminary choice from among the long list of can
didates seeking their favor This. perhaps, is
due in part to the distractions Of other pressing
public questions and TO the continuous talk of
postponement but also In part to failure to
grasp the mechanics OF the election.
Let u.s. therefore impress 1t again upon one
and all that the so-called city primary which Is
scheduled to take place next Tuesday, is In real
ity not nominating primary, but elimination
election; that Of the seventy-three names on the
ballot only fourteen will appear on the ballot in
the regular election to be held five weeks later
Under our commission plan scheme nominations
are made not by primary, but by the petitions
accompanying the filings. and nominations have
been closed
4 AZ the impending preliminary election. each
voter may indicate his choice for not TO exceed
seven candidates.. the top fourteen to go on the
official ballot from which he will again select
seven. II IL imperative, therefore that suffi-
Client conceptration be secured in the elimination
race to keep enough good men in the running
for the finals that satisfactory selection OF suit
able material may be had out OF the fourteen
who stand high in the first count
Our advice is for each voter to study the
qualifications and capabilities of the different
candidates and, with such disinterested help ana
advice as may be had. TO make their decisions
before going 70 the polls.

ssriou, Breach Of HospitalitH.

The editor Of great Paris newspaper, re-
Gently in Washington, cabled home to his paper
q purported interview with President Wilson,
which the latter gentleman repudiates in toto.
The patriotic zeal OF the editor seems to have
led him into a serious breach OF hospitality.
While the president of the United States may
have said word or two OF friendly interest to
the editor when the French ambassador pre-
sented his distinguished countryman, II is highly
improbable that he INDUCED in any extended
comment on the war in any OF its phases. 1t is
unreasonable to think that Mr. Wilson would
fall fnto the blunder OF making statements that
would give aid and comfort" to either Of the
combatants.
Little of real harm will result from the tn
cident. but It serves TO show how 1ealously the
nations involved are watching and how eagerly
they seize upon any point that may be turned TO
advantage.
