that the Spanish would wipe our ships

be made OF their enthusiasm
Baltimore American: A census taken In
co-educational institution disclosed the
fact that the dear girls were more in
terested in securing husbands than riches.
Another demonstration, obviously, of the
faliaey Of the higher education.
Philadelphia Ledger: Senator Cores in
tellectual processes are difficult TO fol-
low when he says that he introduced his
resolution forbidding Americans to travel

New York World: Ex-senator Henry
Gassaway Davis. who once hoped to be
vice president OF the United States.
aspires now, at ninety-three, TO become
the only centenarian president of a rail-
road. Providing that the years shall be
kind, he will meet no opposition to the
fulfillment of this later ambition.

Why should the president have "a personal
representative" occupying an anomalous posi-
ton in our diplomatic reiationsf This question
is being asked with more or less pertinency
with reference to Colonel Houses late mission
20 Europe-suppanting the regularly accred-
tied ambassadors and ministers, OF at least
taking precedence OF them for the time being
on all subjects connected with war Whatever
status Colonel House has IL wholly extrs-legal.
there being no law creating such a position or
making appropriation for such services. The
inevitable tendency Of dispatehing para
mount diplomat to a foreign court must be TO
weaken, ~ not discredit the regular diplomatic
representative there.
IL is pointed out, however. that in commits
sioning Colonel House as his personal repre-
sentative. the president has done no more
usurpation that he did when he sent John Lind
a personal spokesman to make demands
upon Huerta and at the same time made Will
liam Bayard Hale his personal representative
in dealing with Carranza. II is explained that
there is as much warrant for for the
other, which means that there is no warrant
for either except the acquiescence OF congress
after the fact.
The whole idea Of personal representative
merely reflects the presidents conception of a
personal government, that in the conduct OF
foreign affairs he may act with full powers
and be bound by no law. The strange thing is
that this is the old monarchcai principle by
which ambassadors and ministers we're pre-
sumed to represent the king or emperor per-
sonalIy, being the very opposite Of the demo-
cratic principle OF popular sovereignty. and,
strangest OF all is It that this fragrant de-
parture from the democratic idea should come
through a president supposed to typify democ-
racy.

Plan for the Home Beautiful.

Last year some devoted members OF the
Omaha Civic league carried on a rather compre-
hensive campaign for the identifying OF home
surroundings and succeeded in arousing eonsid-
cradle interest among the home owners The
present spring will provide the test OF that effort
by showing TO what extent the enthusiasm then
awakened yet persists. Omaha has always been
city OF homes. aud most OF them are beautiful
Visitors invariably remark this attractive feature
OF our city life. We have no siums. no tumble
down streets. no hidden unsightly places even
our vacant lots Haunting their unlovely aspect
openly. The flowers and shrubbery planted last
spring will bloom again within a few days but
the effort at Improvement should not be per-
mitted to lag. Proper concern of the people for
their surroundings will make Omaha still more
attractive, source Of greater pride TO its clti-
zens and OF pleasant vonderment to visitors II
is time TO get busy on the campaign in which
every householder is a soldier.

Bouquet for Omaha schools.
LINCOLN. March ITO The Editor OF
The Bee: I wish to congratulate the city
OF Omaha on the excellence Of the manual
training in the public schools. especially
the pottery.
Last week. while in Omaha. through
the courtesy OF the manual training sup
ervisor. 1 had the pleasure of visiting the
large kiln where all the pottery made by
the pupils is fired and glazed. I was
pleased to find that the supervisor has
an assistant who gives his entire time
to this important part of the work
Some OF the modelling was so remark
ably well done that / wondered IL
potter's wheel had not been used. but I
found upon inquiry, that the pupils make
hand built pieces only. Their long train
ing In bench work, wood carving and
other manual arts has obviously helped
to make them unusually skillfui in the
pottery.
IT may be assumed that 1 speak Of this
matter with some authority. since the
modelling and glazing of art pottery is my
speciality. For three years I have done
glazing and firing OF pottery for the Peru
state Normal school. and also for the
public schools OF Lincoln, and the sub
ject Of pottery has been my particular
study for some dozen years.

Signs Of Progress

Thirty million passengers were carried
on ferryboats in San Francisco bay with
out injury through accident during the
year ending June 90 1915 In the last
twenty-five years, It Is stated, only two
deaths have resulted from ferry mishaps.
A single gallon OF gasoline will milk
500 cows. bale four tons of hay, mix thir-
ty-five cubic yards OF cement. move a
ton truck fourteen miles. plow three tifths
or an acre OF land or generate sufficient
electricity to illuminate a farm house for
thirty hours.
There are twice as many people in the
United States as in 1880 three times as
many as at the outbreak OF the civil war
and five times as many as in 1870 The
increase between 1910 and 1915 is said TO
have been equal to the entire population
