Political Dissension in Austria.

Ordinarily, cabinet uphesvals and paramen-
tary crises in Austria are too common to attract
much attention. The discordant political elc-
ments OF the il-assorted empire keep affairs in
such turmoil that no premier ever is entirely easy
in his seat, and always is assured OF difficulty with
the Rcichrath In the present situation however,
the admitted inability OF Count Clam MARITIME to
form cabinet may be accepted as proof that the
disaffection of the Poles and Bohemians is even
more serious than ever Rumors nave been
plentiful since the accession OF Emperor Carl Of
general dissatisfaction through all his empire with
the course and progress OF the war, and the tact
refusal OF Austria to declare war against the
United States has been interpreted as evidence
of willingness on part of that government to
listen to terms for separate peace. Widespread
disquietude amongst the people is natural re-
suit OF the belief that Austria has been but an
instrument in the control OF the German war
party, used as pretext to start the conflict, and
never at any time looked upon as an equal part
ncr in the enterprise. Difficulties in the way Of
communication prevent accurate knowledge Of
what actually is transpirng in Vienna, but the
little news that does come through is not OF a
quality that presages quiet for the emperor while
he remains under German control.

Police Reorganization Overdue.

While the hearings on the police scandals have
not so far pinned anything beyond contradiction
upon anybody under charges, they have developed
quite enough to affirm the popular demand for a
thoroughgong reorganization OF the department.
As The Bee stated at the outset, no police de-
partment can be efficient and effective except un-
der the discipline and direction Of one boss and
the idea that different branches Of the service
can work at cross purposes and take orders from,
and report to, anyone but the responsible officer
in command leads only to generalization and
corruption.
II similar situation had developed in the
fire department we may be sure its continuance
would not have been tolerated very long. But
discipline and efficiency under single head are
Just as essential for the police force as for the
fire fighters. The disclosures before the council
only prove again that there is no room for poll
tics, personal favoritism or special pull in the
department any more than in the fire department
and if these disturbing factors are not eliminated
by the present upheaval the people will find some
other way to get rid of them. 1t is up to the
mayor and council to devise and execute re-
organization plan.

A Campaign Without Precedent.

BY far the most noteworthy feature OF Amer
ics's preparation for the war is the campaign
for Red Cross funds In the midst of the hurry
and confusion of getting ready in other ways
people find time to participate in the collection
of contributions on scale never before under
taken. We must go back to the middle ages
for anything to compare with. Peter the Hermit,
preaching the Crusade gathered men and money
through medieval Europe, but touched only a
comparatively narrow strip of country and popu-
lation. Here we find an entire nation engaged
in this business, work OF mercy pure and sim
pie, in which all the world is to have its share in
the uses for which money is being so lavishly
donated. Coming directly after the great Liberty
loan drive, the undertaking presents a magni6-
cent picture of how entirely the Americans Of
today have pledged themselves and all their re-
sources to the cause of humanity and must for
ever answer the sneer that the dollar is our

North Platte Tribune: The Omaha Bee says
that in May, 1916 the average. number of in

during May, 1917 the average was less than 100.
In May, 1916, Omaha had saloons; in May, 1917,

commissioner, who is alleged to be the political
boss the charges and counter charges will be
sifted to the bottom. If the rumors are un-
founded Omaha owes it to its good name to turn
on the light and prove it. II the rumors are well
grounded. it is equally up to Omaha to purge it

Sheep and Dogs in Nebraska.

Omaha, June 21.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Nebraska is the twenty
eighth state in sheep population in
the United States. The average an
nual>sheep population for the last ten
years has been below 100000, while
Ohio, with only little above one
half the land area of Nebraska, has
between 100000 and 100000 sheep
and its farmers are becoming wealthy
through this source of industry. Ne
braska, with the same security of dog
protection that Ohio has, would very
soon move up to the fourth or fifth
state in the United States in sheep
production. Nebraska has the dispo-
sition to go into sheep raising. Why
not give Nebraska a chance?
Nebraska now feeds more sheep
than any state in the union, but we
must use tight corrals or feed yard
fence protection, so as to evade the
dog and wolf, and even then our an
nual loss by dogs and wolves is $50, 900
to $4,000 at low estimate. This is
the sacrifice that our state is annually
making to the dog and wolf industry,
an industry that does not yield to the
state 81 of revenue, but Is, besides its
heavy toll on the sheep industry, a
curse to humanity, spreading animal
disease, hog cholera, anthrax, foot and
mouth disease and rabies to the dam
age of the live stock industries and to
our people to the amount of tens of
thousands of dollars each year..
The last enumeration by assessors
report gave Nebraska 1850 sheep
the last enumeration Of dogs gave Ne
braska 108,777; the previous dog emu
meration for 1914 gave the number
96, 1876, yearly increase of more than
1900 dogs and very heavy yearly
decrease in sheep-6,50O killed in 1915
and all this in the face of the fact
that sheep and wool are advancing
in price each-year and that our coun-
try is not producing one-half the wool
that is demanded to clothe our people.
From the beginning there has al
ways been recognized a need to re-
strict the dog. Dog laws are not op-
erative as they now exist in many
states. The Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington, D: c., called a
meeting two years ago last April of
the sheep interests of the United States
to discuss the needs of the sheep in
dustry of the country. The dog and
predatory animals as enemies of the
sheep were discussed at length and
the question of the dog law put into
the hands of the American Shropshire
Sheep Breeders association to formu-
late law that could be recommended
to all states for adoption.
With dog law tax there is no rea-
son why Nebraska should not move up
to fourth or fifth place in sheep pro-
| duction Ohio has regular sheep
population of 100000 to 1000, 900,
with about half the land area that
! Nebraska has, this attributed to its
dog tax law of many years standing
There is not an Ohio sheep owner
who has suffered 81 loss from dogs
for more than thirty years that has
not been paid before January of
each year. G. w. II.
