Comment on Bee Comment

York Republican: Migratory workers" d
good. That is what the Omaha Bee designates
the army Of tramps that have been bred BY the
present democratic administration. Migratory
workers, indeed II they find man on the freight
train that wants to work they rob him and throw
him under the car wheels. That ID the hardest
Job they undertake.
Omaha Examiner: That 10 certainly an ad-
mirablc cartoon by Powell in The Bee represents
ing the departure of the Deutschland underneath
the British watchers. The British Lion is shown
coating in the water with his head toward the
shore and with the British flag flying from the
masthead Of his erected tail. Beneath him, deep
in the water, 10 the Deutschland--in the shape Of
! northumberland for Germany, the German
flag ornamenting its tail. An original idea well
executed, Thia u one Of the best cartoons Of the
season.
Kearney Hub: The Omaha Bee considers the
organization Of State Highway commission the
FIRST Indispensable step Nebraska must take to be-
come eligible for the states share Of the federal
roads fund. While this is doubtless true the
alternative Is not especially cheerful l. e.,
the creation. Of another commission or bu-
reau to be law unto itself and an appendage Of
state government neither useful nor ornamental
Nebraska has had bad luck with Its commissions
and bureaus in the past and while It can not very
well dispense with them, the people are I'm
doubleday in critical mood regarding the
creation Of any new ones.

menting on the number Of national banks that
have become state institutions, thinks the change
Is not SO much due to the fact that state banks
are protected by the guarantee of deposit laws as
to the fact that the present administration has
made It so difficulty for national bank to conduct
its business without bowling to the demands OF q
lot OF fool laws and regulations Be that as Il
may we know that many erstwhiie good-natured
f bankers in this part Of this dearly-deloved COM
monwcalth have become suddenly morose and
pecved and have queer TOR banker) things to
Gzy about the national banking department. Isn't
