Keep Jealous Guard on Food Stores.

The burning Of the Nancy elevator. no mat
ter what started the blaze, is deplorable event,
entailing a loss of food that might have been
saved by exercise Of more jealous watchfulness.
The Bee many days ago gave warning Of the
danger to these storehouses and urged that extra
vigilance be exerted in guarding all places where
food was stored or manufactured. The National
Board of Underwriters since has taken similar
action and urgently pleads for greater care in
guarding against fire. Ordinary precautions are
not enough in these troubled times. The only
way to make sure Of safety is to know every mo-
ment just what the condition is and to see that
all employees are properly charged with the i'm
portance Of the work entrusted to them.
At any time destruction Of property through
preventable fire is regrettable; il the loss come
through cuipabe carelessness it is criminal; in
this time, when all are bending every effort to
conserve food, the loss Of an elevator and its
contents by fire is calamity Incendiarism I'M
der such conditions is dastardly in the extreme
and deserves the severest Of punishment Owners
must aid the authorities in guarding food ware.

Take the Lid All the WAY OIL

With the graft talk so frequently indujged in
Omaha at last focused in definite charges and
counter-charges touching both city hall and court
house, the thing to do is to take the lid all the
way off and expose the whole works to the search
light. ...4g ..
Let us have all the facts and the full facts, re-
gardless OF WHO may be implicated and let the
responsibility and blame TALL wherever official
rupton or crooasedncss may be found.
1t is due to the good name of the community
that the proof or disproof be Forthcoming. The
people do not want their police department used
for the personal profit Of anyone, in office or out
of Office, on the force or off the force. The in
tegrty as we'll as the efficiency Of the police is at
stake.
The public want nothing covered up. They
want no one shielded. They want no one made the
goat for others who are guilty
While The Bee has already voiced its own and
the public sentiment in similar declaration, ii will
bear repeating and hammering down.

Natures UneontrolIable Forces.

Newspaper readers are again shocked by sto-
ries Of the tornado's destructive presence. Along
the trail Of the twister lives have been blotted
out, men, women and children manned and Grip
pied, and millions Of dollars worth Of property
destroyed 1t is a sorrowful record of terrible
manifestation Of the majesty and power Of ma
lures forces, Solar energy sets in motion ele-
msnts beyond mans control and an awful dem
onstraton of stupendous grandeur follows Man
understands the mechanism Of the movement, but
stands helpless before it. 1t is the working out
of the transition from winter to summer through
laws as immutable and certain in their operation
as any known. There is lesson in it for those
who hope for the coming of better things for
man. Nature clears her way through restraints
by mighty commissions or upheavals and SO man
must work out bis destiny against odds by over
coming opposition Peace only is to be obtained
by successful struggle against that which would
check the forward movement to the ultimate goal
and whatever is worth having is worth striving
for.
