An ArtisticalIy Done Job.

PLATTsMoUTH. Neb.. April 23-ro the
Editor OF The Bee: The reply of Secre-
tary Bryan to the recent letter of the
German ambassador at Washington COM
plies precisely with the demands which
courtesy. mercy and self-respect demand.
The reproof to the ambassadors inter-
ference in the domestic affairs of the
country is there. Attention is called TO
the ambassadors disregard of important
acts OF the United States. And the whole
American situation Is restated with an I'M
emotional simplicity that should convey
to the ambassador the clean impression
that IL is high time he knew what he was
talking about.
All this Is done without yielding in the
least to the temptation to lose our tenn.
pers concerning either the form or the
substance Of the ambassadors strange
note. The realization OF the stress under
which warning nation is working evi-
IDENTIFY restrains our pen. as. indeed, It
should.
But our self-respect is upheld firmly
and unwaveringly. The letter is a dis
agreeable but necessary job, done as a
man Of character and manners should
do II.
The letter certainly ought to cause n
certain United States senator 10 feel
mighty small. A. w. ATWOOD.

Dealing with the Loan Shark.


Governor Morehead is just now pluming him
self nightly on having secured the enactment
OF law that reduces the usurious rate OF inter
est to be charged by loan sharks" TO 80 to 40
per cent per annum, instead of 30 TO $50 per
cent. Without detracting from any credit due
the governor. the Omaha Commercial club puts
in q claim for some Of the glory OF having Sc
cured this law and number OF private indi-
viduals are known to have taken active interest
in the matter for quite some time. The gov
ernor was not alone in the movement for the
reform.
But It is not so much a question of who did
IL OF having II done. The loan shark evil
cried aloud for legal remedy. and more than
deserved the restrictive action taken. But the
blow is not yet fatal. The interest rate is still
too high far'in excess OF what is asked Of other
borrowers. Loopholes will be found in the law
through which the Insurer may escape after
overcharging his victim. The work has only been
well commenced. The state must make still
better provision for protecting its citizens
against the rapaeity OF the men who capitalize
humAnitys misfortunes.

Local Labor Conditions.

The fast approaching end OF the month
warns us that May day has been the usual time
for labor demonstrations and for the focusing
OF industrial disputes. II goes without saying
that there will be no army Of labor on parade in
Europe this year because a different kind OF
army is on the march. On this side OF the
water. unfortunately we already have signs Of
disturbances in the building trades IN Chicago,
and at one or two other points, which every one
interested in the continued business upturn now
beginning to be noticeable must deplore.
So far as Omaha is concerned conditions
here have for several years found the workmen
busy at good wages and in harmonious relations
with their employers. The outlook was never
brighter for omaha's material growth, particu-
larly in construction work and II this outlook is
realized on--as It surely will be-our city will
have a start in the forward movement OF re-
covery from the general Industrial depression
that will put II we'll on the way TO pass some OF
its near competitors so we believe every one

possible differences between our local working

forty-three years OF life he had never known a
kiss other than his mothers, was promptly
kissed before he could defend himself Which
was one good kiss wasted. ANY man who has
come to the threshold OF middle age without
feeling the promptings that turn young mans
fancy in the days Of spring. who has not at some
time breathed soft and airy nothings into the
listening ear OF a charming girl. who has not
even once tasted the supernal delight that poets
revel in describing, isn't worth kissing, even
out OF curiosity. He should be allowed to pursue
his lonesome way to an unlighted oblivion, while

TAYLOR, Neb.. April 22.-To the Edit
tor OF The Bee: We are pleased TO OBJ
serve that the chief magistrate OF this
nation has learned that this nation, nor
its chief executive, is not fit TO sit in
judgment upon another nation.
Had this been firmly fixed in the mind
OF President Wilson at the time when he
was determining the manner in which
the president OF Mexico should secure
his office, the kind of a man such presi-
dent should be. whether or not the cleo
tions Of Mexico we're fairly held, and
whether or not the results expressed the
will OF the Mexican people. and
whether or not the government In
force was the best government for
those people, then we as a ma
ton would appear better in the eyes
of the world. and without a doubt the
long continued struggle in that country
for supremacy would have been ended
a long time ago. However, the Ameri-
can people will be pleased to know, al
though the lesson was dearly bought, II
has at last become a fixed principle OF
the present administration.

schools Not for POIitieaI Uam-
paigning.
OMAHA. April 8.-To the Editor Of
The Pee: My attention having been
called TO the fact that four candidates
for the office OF city commissioner ad-
dressed the Hanscom Park Improvement
club at its meeting held last evening in
the Windsor school. Secretary Bourke
gives me the following synopsis from the
records Of the school board, to-wit:
At the time the Board Of Education
granted the use of the school buildings
for other than strictly school purposes,
II was with the understanding that such
use would be restricted to social center
tural nature. Improvement clubs or any
meeting OF an educational or cul-
tural tendency. but that political or re-
ltgious meetings OF any kind would not
allowed the use of the school buildings.
which permitted such discussions at
their meetings would have the privilege
OF using the building revoked.
Until the record is amended OF re-
versed by action OF the board I deem IL
my duty to caution all Improvement or
other clubs. permitted TO meet in school
buildings, not to violate the rules of the
board by inviting or allowing candidates
to present their personal appeals for be-
ing elected to office at meetings held in
our school buildings.
This is not intended as criticism
against what may have been said or
done at the Windsor school last evening
as am assured that the presence of the
four gentlemen was not the result of
premeditated action by the club.

Foodstuffs tops all the gains in exports but
It's vastness is almost equalled by the loss in cot
ton. gain OF $246.5OO 900 explains why the
food-producng section OF the nation withstood
the strain OF disrupted trade with comparative
ease. while the pinch was severest in the cotton
belt and the coast cities. In actual munitions
Of war--explosives and firearms--the increase
amounts to s12.O00.0OO which is an insig-
nificant proportion of what the warning nations
consume. The total merchandise exports for
the eight months is valued at s1.601 900. 200, OF
s74.00O, 900 less than in the same period OF
1914. The so-calied balance OF trade in our
favor comes from the decrease in imports, which
are $160. 100000 less than the preceding year,
Because OF the shrinkage OF imports" the New
York Journal OF Commerce points out. the ex-
cess OF exports managed to show a gain of $780,
900. 900. but this could hardly be styled salts
factory exhibit, the fact being that our total
foreign trade in these eight months was valued
at only $2.6sO, 900 .OO0 against s2,s1l 900. 900
at the same time last year. a loss of s221.-
900. 900.
The point underscored b. the government is
that the trade value OF war to a neutral nation
is delusion and a snare.
