This, the story she told a representative

story that convinced Judge Cairns.
DR.. Perry Lichtenstein, the TOmbs ply

Il do not believe that at the time she
committed the act, nor at the time she
came to the City Prison, she knew the na-
ture nor quality Of her act: She may have
known that she was writing. She may
have known that she gave her name, or
put somebody else's name on the back Of
that check, but she did not realize the na-
ture nor quality of her act That is, she
did not know that she was doing wrong
My opinion is that while she committed
the act and for two weeks afterWard she
was irresponsible"

State Hail Insurance Results.

Another year of experience with state hail
Insurance in Nebraska has finished with bal
ance on the right side, but the presence Of a
small surplus is not an absolute factor of safety.
The interesting feature of the report is that a
large number of farmers took advantage OF the
opportunity offered by the state and secured
protection for their growing crops at low rate.
In the past most of the insurance against hail
was carried by mutual concerns formed among
groups of farmers, who prorated losses, and
who were very successful Some incidental
difficulties were present and although many of
the mutuals still do business, the shifting of
management on to the state with fixed rate of
premium per acre to secure stipulated pay
ment is proving popular. The amount of in
surance is not high, but it covers consider
able portion of the loss that might be sus-
tained and therefore is servceable. Until the
experiment has been carried on farther it will
not be possible to say if either premium or in
demnty is properly set at existing figures. As
step in the right direction the move was long
ago commended by The Bee, and that the
farmers are taking advantage of the opportun-
ity more and more only proves it's potential
value.

How to Save Lawns.

Omaha, Nov. 10, 1870 the
Editor of The Bee: Every spring
there is a great deal of complaint
about lawns dying out so badly in
Omaha through the winters. There
may be cause for it that can be
helped, and I hope that what / say
on the subject will do some good.
Every fall of the year most people
begin to burn up the leaves as fast
as they fall and they very thoroughly
rake every leaf from their lawns ana
leave the grass roots absolutely bare
to take the freezes and thaws Of
the zero weather we have SO much
in Nebraska at times. If people
would leave most of the leaves on
their lawns until late springtime,
they would not have to renew their
lawns so many times, for the grass
would live better. If the leaves will
not stay in place, put some poultry
netting over them to hold them IN
place.
1t may not look quite so pretty
in the judgment Of some people
to let the leaves stay where they
fall through the winter, but they
will find that their lawns are the
better for it the coming year. Hop
ing that many people will profit from
reading this little piece of advice. I
will come to a close.

As was anticipated the appeal! Of the steel
strike leaders in Pittsburgh to the allegheny my
county court for an injunction against the
mayor who had taken precaution for the pre-.
vention of rioting was dismissed. The final
decree made it clear that there would be no
interference with the mayors program for pre-
serving peace and order, and the, police, &C
cordingly, will deal effectively with persons
who foment disturbance.
The mayor has not interfered with the law
full rights of anyone. Those who observe the
laws have no occasion for fearing policemen
clubs. But agitators who preach anarchy and
promote meetings at which the reds are en-
couraged to attack the government invite ar
rest and punishment, and the probability is that
these undesirable persons will think twice be-
fore disregarding the mayors orders.
Municipal officers throughout the county are
showing a gratifying courage in dealing with
the reds and their sympathizers. There was
a time when city executives hesitated in op-
posing such trouble-makers. Today the public
IS alive to the danger of tolerating any kind of
lawlessness and this is reflected in the stiffen-
ing of many official Observation-Disclosures

A Dream Come True

The yearning of women for equal participa-
ton in the affairs of politics is to be satisfied
in the approaching presidential election. Not
merely are they to vote but they are to have
an important part in the management of affairs,
the selection of candidates, the drafting of plat
forms. the organization of the electorate and the
campaigning for the ticket.
AT conference of republican leaders at Chi
cago it was decid ID to adopt plan for the full
participation of the women voters in the party's
work. A womans division of the national COM
rnittee has been created, with vice chairman and
an executive committee the chief function of
which will be the organization of the women
voters. The national committeeman took good
care to make it plain that this women's division
was not an adjunct or mere side show to the
big organization, but an integral part of it. 1t

Just and full consideration due every working
member of the party"
It is no secret that the democratic national
committee is planning likewise for participation
n its councils by representatives of the suf
;ragsts, who will find as hearty greeting from
their democratic brothers as has been extended
~ the republicans. And so the dream of CEN
tury has come true and the last line of inequality
between the sexes has been obliterated. In con-
SEQUENCE of which the pending campaign will be
approached by the veteran politicians with I'M
usual trepidation and misgiviugs, and its results
will be studied with extraordinary interest

Cause of the Upheaval in Wall Street.

On this page will be found lengthy editor
ial from the New York Times dealing with the
condition that has developed in the stock mar
ket A single phase of it must arrest attention
1t is the part the Federal Reserve Board has
played
Imitation of the currency was inevitably an
accompaniment of the war; but careful business
men hoped the operations of the federal reserve
banks would be moderated by actual needs of
the country. A contrary experience has ensued.
With credit as basis for federal bank issues.
and the credit of the government itself avail
able through the medium of enoromus bond is
sues, the effect has been quite disastrous in its
general aspect
AS long ago as July last the Federal Re-
serve Board became apprehensive OF the situa-
ton that was developing, and considered its
recourse of raising the discount rate to check
further expansion of the currency. Desiring
to favor legitimate business enterprises, it was
deemed prudent for the time at least to lay no
further burden on commercial paper, and the
rate was not changed. 1t now develops that
large loans have been made against Liberty
bonds, and currency issued on notes so sup
ported, the proceeds being used to speculate in
Wall Street.
This perversion of the intent of the law has
brought with it the unacceptable evils that fol-
low too much money. The price level continues
to rise, in spite of the earnest effort made to
check profteering and the general conditions
have not been improved in any way. Warnings
from the board have brought about temporarily
the lessening of the dangerous proceedings in
the stock market but the end has not been
reached. A frner policy and more rigid en-
forcement of the law in spirit as well as in
letter must ensue, or business crash may
come. The gamblers must be restrained, or
honest business will suffer.

Money in Omaha Banks.

No more encouraging state of affairs could
be asked than is shown by the statement Of the
Omaha banks. An increase of more than $25,-
100000 in deposits for the year is sign of
prosperity in the region served by these in
situations, while similar increase in loans dis
closes that the money is employed. When
capital not only accumulates, but is consistently
used in the creation of new wealth, the contri-
button is for good only. Omaha banks haye
long stood as exemplars of conservative meth
ods their soundness never questioned, and their
enterprise always alert for service. Business
conditions in Omahas sector were never more
favorable than at this moment and without any
appearance of BOOM" the combination of
men and money was never more actively en-
ployed than at present. This all means great
Ness for the future as we'll as prosperity for
the present, of which fact the bank statement
is an unerring index
