OF her husband. Is denounced for her
alleged pcrfidy Donald Hall. as the

CAN WILSON DO IT7


Whether you believe II or not, the
whole world Is an interested spectator
Of the efforts OF President Wilson to
bring about peace In troubled and
tormented Europe. The President

they may be equally successful in
stopping the slaughter.

at Washington that direct negotia-
tons between the warning groups

matter has now gone to the diplomats
Future negotiations will be conducted
secretly.
1T is Just as definitely and posi-
lively stated that the only possible
hope OF peace lies in mediation by a
neutral power and the United States
being the strongest Of these. the 9th

Wilson to take the lead.

Catholic Directory Census

There are 17,022,S79 Catholics in the United
States proper according to the 1917 edition of
The Official Catholic Directory" published and
copyrighted by P. ]. Kennedy & Sons, New York
With sixty-four American archdioceses and do
ceses reporting increases, four showing decreases
and thirty-three archdioceses and dioceses max
ing no change in the population figure the increase
in the number of Catholics during the year 1916
is shown to be 458,770.
According to Joseph II. Meier, the directory
compiler, the figure l7022,879 is very conserva-
tive, including, as it does only the figures sub
mitted by the chancery officials. Taking into con-
sideration the floating" Catholic population and
the fact that some OF important archdioceses and
dioceses take up census only at intervals OF ten
years, Mr.. Meier feels that he is safe in saying
that the Catholic population Of the United States
is at present nearly 100000.
Looking over that section which contains the
data for our island possessions one finds that
there are 7,3422o2 Catholics in the Philippines
and adding to these Philippine Catholics the num-
Der reported for Alaska, the canal zone, Guam,
our possessions in Samoa the Hawaiian islands
and Porto Rico the total number amounts to
8,4l32S7. This figure does not include the Cath
olics of the three recently acquired Danish West
Indies. .s. .-.....
There are, therefore, under the United States
flag, 2s436,136 Catholics divided as follows: Con-
tinental United States 17,022,879; foreign posses
sions Of the United States, 8,413,257.
Other figures taken from the 1917 publication
show that there are 102 seminries in the United
States with 689S young men studying for the
priesthood; 2l6 colleges for boys, 687 academies
for girls; 293 orphan asylums, l06 homes for the
aged as well as 5,6S7 parochial schools with an
enrolment OF ga children.
There are twentyseven states in the union
having a Catholic population Of 100000 or over.
New York leads with total Of 2e62,97l, followed
by Pennsylvania, illinois and Massachusetts, in
the order named, each being in the million class.
Nebraska stands twenty-fourth, with Catholic
population of lis 432.

Cutting Up Big States
-San Franeiseo ChronieIs 2

The lower branch of the Idaho legislature has
passed resolution for calling a constitutional
convention to consider the question OF dividing
the state.
The proposal does not seem to be the result
OF il-feeling between the sections but Of gen.
cra recognition OF the fact that the interests OF
the mining and numbering counties Of the north
so greatly differ from those of the agricultural
sections of the south that 1t is expensive, incon-
venient and unsatisfactory to combine them in one
administrative unit Concretely expressed, each
section is taxed for state services by which but
one section benefits, and both feel that it would
be more desirable for each section to pay its own
bills.
The people Of Idaho may set fashion. When
Texas was admitted to the union it was expressly
provided that whenever its people should so de-
sire it might be divided into not more than four
states.
This provision was in contemplation OF the
necessity, from the viewpoint Of the south, OF
maintaining the influence of the save-holdng
states in the United States senate. Happily, that
particular reason for increased representation in
the senate no longer exists, but it may be found
that other reasons, equally potent, have grown
out of the progress of the nation.
The territory west of the east line Of Colorado,
comprising nearly one-half of the United States,
has interests greatly differing from those east of
that line They differ, in fact so greatly that the
eastern people cannot be made to understand
them. There are also doubtless temperamental
differences between the populations And yet the
eastern half of the continent is represented at
Washington by ifty-four senators, while the west
has but twenty-five. The natural alignment OF
the western half Of Texas is with the western sec
tion of the nation. And Texas, with its 26s,0O0
square miles, is much larger than the German
empire and will some time support larger popu-
lation. And Texas, like Idaho and California, in
cludes sections which are industrialy, and per-
haps temperamentally, diverse. ~
| he iu1e ma
est it may be deemed wise for the west to rear
range its state lines so as to create state admins
| tratve units as nearly homogeneous in interest
as may be found possible. At any rate, it is a
subject which should be considered from the
standpoint Of sense and not sentiment

More Postal False Economy.

The Commercial club Of Omaha is rightly
protesting against the latest manifestation OF
false economy by the Postoffice department. Not
content with making the local postofice run
frightfuly short-handed, regardless Of its rapidly
growing business, the economizers at Washing.
ton are now crippling the railway mail service
with the consequence that the transmission and
delivery Of mail is more delayed and irregular
than ever No one objects to the Postofice de-
partment organizing its forces upon an efficiency
basis, cutting out waste and slack and requiring
Of employees full days work for full days pay
but economy attained by deteriorating the serv.
ice or proceeding on the idea that the people can
wait for their mail until the mail clerks catch up
with several days or weeks accumulations, is
wholly at variance with prevailing ideas Of enter
prise and destructive Of private business that de.
pends upon the mails. The postal economizers
seem TO forget that it is service which postofice
patrons want and are paying for. They should
be politely but firmly informed that, while post.
Office patrons rpay have to take what is handed
them, they cannot be made to like it or be kept
from registering their dissatisfaction.
Omaha daily bee., 1917-03-10

Omaha, March $40 the Editor of
The Bee: / noticed a very violent and
vehement outburst in your columns
a few days ago from young man
from North Platte, who signed his
name Byron B. Oberst" because of
what l had said about the Boy Scouts
What l wrote was simply my own
opinion, and the opinion of a good
many others. and il the young man
does not like to read what l write
for the papers there is no law COM
pelling him to read my articles. If
l could write or say or do things that
would please every person living, l
would be able to do what Christ him.
self was unable to do when He was
on earth, for He was able to please
only a small part of the people then
living.
The young man Oberst would shut
off my writing for the papers because
] do not please him, but what have
written has pleased a great many peo-
Pile, for l have received numerous
compliments from judges of our
courts, from scores of lawyers and
other professional men, including min
listers, from numberless business men
and workingmen. Many cut out the
articles and save them. l never ex-
pect all to be pleased with what l
write, nor do you as editor of The
Bee. But even the article that Oberst
takes so much umbrage at was spoken
of approvingly to me by a great many
people.
Even though he is Of German de-
scent, he need not feel so hurt over
what I said in criticism of the Ger
man system Of training boys for war
and how to kill people as soon as they
are born, for I simply cpiticised the
system that the people Of Germany
are compelled to live under. More
than 80 per cent of the people Of
German birth in this country today
came from Germany to escape the
tyrannical government of the emperor
and his fellow despots and very few
of them care to go back there to live.
Oberst should follow his own teach
ings of self-control before he has any
more such violent outbursts. He will
probably gain more equilibrium as he
grows older, as he is quite young yet.
I want to congratulate Mr.. Rod
man NJ, Brown on his fine article.
1t was gotten up in fine shape, and
read 1t with great deal of interest.
Yet all the scout managers do not
seem to agree. Some claim they are
semi military organizations, while
others claim not.
do not claim they have not done
some good, but like great many
other organizations it can be over
| done and time taken that could be put
to better use q great many times.
Then If the suits cost about 81 for
each scout, 1t looks to me as II that
was pretty heavy tax on great
many people, for few boys of poor
people or people in moderate cir
cumstances have suits that cost near
