PEOPLE AND EVENTS

Official estimates place the total
cost of the war at $4,000. 1000. 900.
Any way the figures are studied
makes certain one conclusion: The
bill will hold taxpayers for a while.
Some aliens are waking up to
their duty after a Rip Van Wrinkle
sleep. A Britisher who has lived
in the United States for SO years has
taken out his first papers in Chi
cago.
Three emperors and 80 varieties
of kinglets were disposed of by the
war The greatest fall of all was eX-
perienced by King Barleycorn !, al
though the Almanac de Gotha may
not mention the tumble.
Out of the wreck of war springs
an international tourist route on
allied lands which embraces scenic
wonders of sea and mountain and
plain unsurpassed in continental
Europe. Trains de luxe are to run
from Paris southeastward, skirting
the Mediterranean coast, the foot
hills Of the Alps and the plains of
Lombardy through Milan and Ven
ice, around the tip of the Adriatic
by way of Trieste. thence through
the backdoor of the Balkans to
Saloniki and Constantinople. Even
tually the line will take in the Holy
Land, Armenia and Bagdad on the
Persian gulf. At no point will the
main line touch German or Aus
trian territory, thus intensifying the
funeral rites of the German dream
of Berlin to Bagdad"

NO REDUCTION.

When Captain Kidd for deeds he did,
In Crimes black book recorded.
Was caught, he loudly cursed his luck,
But bore his doom. and took with pluck
The hangman's rope awarded.
Dick Turpin too, who robbed and slew,
Did not surrender tamely;
And when grim Justice ran him down,
He did not weep, or whine, or frown,
But bore the gallows gamsly
But Fritz the knave. so bold and brave
When DOMINIC pirate raiment,
Sees Justice making out his bill,
And quakes, and feels extremely Ill
At being asked for payment.
When Fritz the brute took lives and loot,
With ''all that floats" to fireSat.
He whooped on land, he whooped on sea
But now he whines, and wishes he
Had not become a pirate.
"Mein Gott" he cries. that bills big
size,
Mein heart completely smothers.
Make not men cash-box pay the debt,
Let US forgive, let us forget,
And let all men be brothers,
But though he squirms, he knows the
terms
For devilish destruction,
Stern Justice thus declares her will
The pirate Fritz must pay the bill
Without the least reduction.

Several years ago laws were passed which per

Government ErtravaQQnce

Any private enterprise conducted on the
financial plan Of the United States government
would be bankrupt in few weeks The only
thing that saves the government of the United
States from bankruptcy is the willingness of
the people to submit to any burden of taxation
which congress sees fit to impose In war
time they are willing, of course, to make al
lowances for emergencies and for haste and
for great deal of unavoidable waste, but in
peace times they are entitled to protection and
somebody is going to make the protest strong
enough and loud enough presently to compel
the adoption Of the budget system.
Nothing will contribute more to the con-
fdence of the people in their government than
the adoption of business principles in the apend-
ing of their money. The time must come, and
soon, when the different branches of the gov
eminent will make up in advance and submit to
scrutiny estimates of their needs and will be
confined to such allowances as the people ought
to be required to furnish, and expenditures in
excess will be dealt with as violations of the
law.-Minneapolis Tribune.

daylight SAVING Fraud Again.

Omaha. March 19.-To the Editor
Of The Bee: Permit me to quote
through your coloumns an article on
the so-called daylight savings"
from the Orange Judd Farmer of
Chicago, one of the most reliable and
solid farm publications in the United
States. The article is as follows:
Congress adjourned without TAX
ing any action on the daylight saving
question. so the clocks will be turn
ed ahead at the end of this month as
was done last year. Possibly if there
had been time for adequate consid-
GRAFTON this law would have been re-
pealed, but it was simply lost in the
rush. There is nothing to do about
the matter just now except to abide
by the national regulation. Another
congress is going to convene some
time. Before the height of the sea-
son there may yet be an opportunity
to secure a change. And meanwhile
1t should be understood by all those
outside of agriculture. that this bit of
national pleasantly Is definitely in
creasing the cost Of food production.
They may not have to pay it, yet, but
eventually they will"
That little item ought to set the
daylight saving faddists to thinking a
little. For the so-called daylight saw
ing system is simply burdensome to
the people of the country who put in
the most hours day at work and is
a burden to millions Of people on ac-
count of forcing them to change
their hours Of sleeping. The system
puts all Of the daylight at one end
OF the day and the wrong end at
that.
People who do not have time to
throw away would rather have that
extra hour in the morning for rest
and needed sleep. for that is the best
time for sleep, especially after a hot
night.

Just then Lonesome Bear poked
his head close to the blazing bar
rier. The Ogre and aviator saw his
gas mask with the bullying eyes and
elephant-like trunk. and the sight
gave them shock.
Great gales! Look at that"
shouted the aviator, tumbling back,
"Marvelous." muttered the Ogre.
This extraordinary bear can live in
smoke that would kill any normal
creature"
When Lonesome Rear saw how
he had startled the Ogre and avia-
tor his courage came back Rearing
upon his hind legs he began to waltz
around the cave.
THE same war dance he did last
night when he had me freed" eX-
claimed the Ogre. "Marvelous!"
Maybe he is going to attack us.
Shoot him!" cried the aviator. The
Ogre lifted his rifle, but at the sight
of 1t Lonesome Bear wisely vanished
into the depths OF the cave.
Shoot into the cave and finish
him., urged the aviator. The Ogre,
clutching his rifle. crept toward the
entrance, with the aviator beside
him. Reaching the fire, both paus-
ed. straining their eyes to see into
the cave. So intent were they upon
trying to catch glimpse of Lone
some Bear that they never noticed
what was going on behind them.
Balky Sam and Billy Goat had
crept quietly out Of the bushes and
followed the Ogre and the aviator as
they moved forward They were
right behind when the two leaned
forward on hands and knees to look
into the cave.
II see HMM that corner. Fire
quickl' exclaimed the aviator The
Ogre started to raise the rifle when
Billy Goat smashed into him like
battering ram. Straight ahead flew
the Ogre into the barrier and right
through it, his head scattering the
blazing stakes all about the cave At
the, same time his gun fell HARM
lessly to one side. Before the
aviator could see what had happen
ed Balky Sam whipped out with his
heels and the aviator followed the
Ogre into the smoky depths of the
cave.
There was a roar from the cavern
and out tumbled Lonesome Bear, his
fur smoking from the flying embers.
He plunged into the river to put out
the fire in his fur, but in a minute he
scrambled out again and grabbed up
the Ogre's rifle.
You will stuff me, will you?" he
roared. Come out of that cave and
I'll do the stuffing"
Tomorrow will be told how the aviator
and Ogre come to think Lonesome Bear Is
bewitched.)

oMAHAs HOUSING PROBLEM.

The mass meeting called for next Wednes-
day to discuss the local housing problem should
impress in advance not only the citizens but the
world At large with one Of the phases of life
in Omaha. Serious as the question is, and it is
most serious, il yet is q compliment to the city,
Omaha's growth was steady throughout all
the period Of the war; even without the stimulus
of special war industries to aid in temporary
expansion. Now that peace has come to the
land, the extension Of enterprise here has
brought such demand for homes for incoming
families of those who are to become part of
the city that the needs in this direction far ex-
coed the supply
The controversy between the builders and
the material men as to the question Of prices
thus becomes one of public concern. Any in
quiry as.to the merits of the case should be full
and thorough, and leave no doubt as to respon-
sibity, or as to the remedy.
What people want to see is the construction
OF the houses that are now so urgently needed to
shelter families that are being added to Oma-
has roll call of citizens. Future growth and
prosperity of the community is assured, but
much will depend on the way in which the
emergency is met Provide the homes, and the
expanse Of the city's industry and commerce
will bring the people to fill them
