Why Not Use the Wool?

A Washington wool man says that 5,00OOOO
pounds of wool is held in storage in the north
west for which no market can be found. Perhaps
some specific reason exists for this, but 1t IS
rot disclosed The one thing that the people
are aware of is the difficulty of getting good
wooden products. The Capper "truth-n- -tabric
bill is aimed to do away with the masquerading
OF shoddv as the pure wool it sets up to be.
AS a matter of solemn fact no very good
reason for the substitution has ever existed Great
Britain started the war by communicating the
wool supply, and it was administered by
government agency up to the present year, and
some supervision still exists because OF the tact
that large surplus of wool and woolen products
was found on hand when the war closed. In order
to stabilize prices and prevent too sudden break
in the market the control was extended, but
there never was time when woolen garments
could mt be obtained in the British empire.
When the United States went into the war our
government took over the wool, that the army
might have proper supply, but it was developed
that far more wool than was needed could be
had. s.
However. the public was soon apprised OF the
fact that shortage" required the substitution
Of shoddy for the pure wool, and has been get

Minneapolis and City Manager.

y JJn,in MINNEAPOLIS a movement is under way
to improve the city government. There as else-
where, and in Omaha particularly, too much
nassing the buck has aroused resentment OF the
citizens agalst the existing plan. At confer
ence last Friday the mayor proposed that steps
he taken to remedy the situation by adopting
measure which in its finality is the city manager
,lan. A mayor and city council is to be elected by
the people, the term of Office to be two years,
and each subject to recall. All executive ana
administrative power is to be vested IN the
mavor. who is to be solely responsible tor en-
forcing and administering the laws passed by
the council. Whenever he falls down, the dis
satisfied voters cam remove him from ofhce
We note no material difference between this
and the city manager plan. Authority as wen
as responsibility is centralized, one man being
charged with the management Of public affairs.
On,v thus is it possible to secure the grade of
efficiency citizens demand in the running OF the
public affairs To argue that such plan IS
subversive of liberty or dangerous to any doc
tr;ne of democracy is but to beg the question

Dairy Cow the Solution.

1t is no new story Prof Fransden told the
farmers at Lincoln. He has been lingng that
information into them many years, with pa
tience that almost equals that of Job. Charts
and Diagrams facts and figures, all support his
contention that good diary cow, properly at
/, tended, is the most prolific money producer a
farmer can have about the place. Tradition, how
ever, is hard to break through and the history
of agriculture in this state is corn and hogs in
endless and more or less profitable succession.
Nebraska has all the natural advantages required
for leadership in the dairy industry. Its climate
is far more favorable than that either of Wis
consin or Minnesota, yet both these states rank
far ahead of this as producers of butter, cheese
and milk. With less area available for farming
purposes, they surpass Nebraska greatly in popu-
lation, although not in per capita wealth. These
things are factors in the progress of the state,
and deserve consideration. A successful dairy
farm may be operated on a much smaller tract
than is required for the more extensive opera
tions of grain raising on profitable scale, but
the return per acre will be greatly enhanced be-
cause of the more intensified use of the ground.
Experiments and experience as we'll are in favor
of the COW, and some day the Nebraska farmer
will awaken to the fact that he is neglecting
real opportunity while following the major line
to which he is now devoted. Prof. Fransden's
seed will take root some time, and then the
world will see new leader in dairy food pro-

Here's a Tocsin Sound,

Omaha, Jan. Ito the Editor OF
The Bee: In view of the agitation
by The Bee to do away with the
present city commission and sup
plant it with city managership
plan, l feel that warning should
be sounded to the people.
This city manager plan, a form
Of one man rule, is claimed by your
paper to be less expensive to the
taxpayers and more efficient 1t
would, no doubt, be an efficient
means of producing a lockout
against public opinion. thereby de-
feating the right of the people for
a voice in governmental affairs. 1t
Is safe to say 1t would be far more
expensive form of government to the
taxpayers for the reason that the
city manager would have the power
to place in force rules and measures
by coercion. without the consent OF
the people, threby defeating the Will
of the people and thus compelling
the individual to resort to the courts
for relief and protection with final
result that the taxpayer would have
to bear the cost of litigation for both
the city and himself.
The promoters of this city man
ager plan seem to have lost all sight
of the principle on which this gov
ernment was founded. which is
based on liberty and freedom; and
it should be the duty of every
citizen who believes in liberty. free
dom and justice to remind them OF
this principle-a government For
