Lincoln Journal. That question la no different for Lincoln and Lancaster county than It 1b for Omaha, South Omaha and Douglas county. With us the most complete solution would bo consol idation of city and county govern ments as has been effected In many places, but which unfortunatoly seems hero to bo out of reach. The next best thing, howovor, would bo a Joint agreement on tho part of tho city and county to erect and main tain a workhouBO, with cost and run ning cxponeo charged between them on sdmo reasonable, and cquitablo basis. Tho city will havo to have its own police detention stations, and the county will have to contlnuo a county Jail for criminals headed for tho penitentiary, but thoro is no Insurmountable obstacle to provent city nnd county gottlng together in tho matter of a workhouse for pris oners convicted of mlsdomeanoro, and sontenced to terms of confine ment at enforced labor. Monument to Carl Schurz. "Europe has given no worthier citizen to America," says James Uryco of Carl Schtin. rnoro is no name moro popular In Gormnny than that of Carl Schurz, as good a Gorman patriot as ho is an American ono," sayB Theodore Mommson, tho Gorman historian. With Mr. Bryce's estimate woll Informed Americans must agree. Tho tribute of Mommson is especially significant in view of tho fact that Bchurz camo ito this country originally as an oxllod rovolutiontsU But - ho roturnod to his fathorland in later years and -was upon moBt intimate terras oven with tho great Bismarck, having been fully recog nized by Germany for his loyalty And greatness. Tho monument to Schurz unvollod In Now York, orectod by popular contribution, is thoroforo a most fit ting momorlal to a groat man who sorved his adopted country as edi tor, statesman, warrior and, abovo all, as patriot. Schurz at Gettys burg and on other civil war battle fields holpod this nation in Its hour of greatest need. Had ho coascd his distinguished efforts there, ho would havo dono enough to ondoar hlmsolf to this republic, but in tho sonata nnd on tho rostrum, through volco and lion Schurz continuod to oxor- ciso his Buporb powers and genius His namo stands forth with thoso cf LafayotU. nnd Kosciusko nnd other groat Europoan patriots who havo answered tho call of liberty in thb United States. On Recognizing Republics. Speaking of our recognition of the new republic of China, tho Now York Herald says: "Why is this helplnjc hand withheld from republic nearer our doors ono with which our relations must nlways bo closer than with China? If Provisional Presi dent Huerta decttnos to conduct further negotiations with our dlplomatlo agent In Mexico until his government Is rc cog nised ho will find n good deal of sympa thy on this nlde of the Rio Grande. But tho cases of China and Mexico are wholly different. Our govern ment does not havo to record its recognition of tho republic of Mex ico, but may question tho stability and authority of tho government under tho present regime American citizens in Mexico aro appealing to Washington for simple protection ot their property and rights, and protesting that Moxican citizens have for two years despoiled their homes and lands with impun ity. Wore this a local or sporadic condition, it might bo overlooked, but It is Bald to havo becomo chronic and general in these two yonrs. Granting tho desirability of main taining relatione of the most Inti mate friendship with Mexico, wo havo tho right to ask Moxlco first to recognize and protect our citizens in their rights, as proof that it is entitled to our recognition, This was tho attltudo taken by President Toft and its correctness leave noth lng for President Wilson to do but continue it, The Logic ot Militanoy. The condition of anarchy main talned by the British suffragettes followed to its logical sequence is destined to deal ft severe and lasting blow to the cause these deluded ... . . This patent fact, Itself, aside from all else, discredits the theory of tho great body ot American suffragists ever adopting the foolhardy methods of the London women. In spite ot the orderly procedure of our own women, the cause ot woman's suf frage everywhere will inevitably suf fer as a consequence ot what b going on across the sea. If Ameri can suffragists could persuade their British sisters to perceive the utter futility ot their anarchistic reign ot terror, they might be able to help them and their common cause. A member of congress baa given up bis seat because his title rested on the exclusion ot certain ballots sup posedly cast for his opponent under a misprinted name".

OMAHA, May 12,-To the Editor ot The Bee: I see In the puwic prints that the president of tho North German Lloyd steamship company has added his voice to the protest going up because the United States has provided that Its own vessels engaged In coastwise commerce may uso the Panama canal toll-tree. This Is an echo of the cry that went up when tho United States determined that foreign owned vessels could not engage In com merce between American ports. It Is also a part of the protest ot the foreign shipowners against the effort of the United. States to keep a vestige of the American flag floating over ocean com merce. If the democratic congress should re cede at tho behest of Great Britain and Germany, and put a toll charge against American coasting vesscts using the ca nal, It will be a direct tribute to the greatest combination of money-grubbers the world has even known. It may not be generally known, but one reason why the American flag has so nearly van ished from the high seas Is because Americans can not compete with the Bri tish and German vessel owners because of the higher wages that must be paid to American sailors. Tho British Vessel Owners' association pays Its seamen from J12.W to $15 per month; the mate ot a British-owned ocean tramp-steamer will get from $30 to $50 per month, and the captain from $90 to $125. Street car con ductors and railroad brakemen In Omaha are paid as well as tho captains who serve the great British shipping trust Other reasons might be cited In sup port ot the provisions ot the canal law as passed under ex-Proeldent Taft's ad ministration, but this alone ought to be enough to retain its favor for American coastwise commerce. It 1b unfair to put the American sailors at the disadvantage of having to compete with the cheap labor that mans the British and German vessels. OLD FOGY. The Comlntr of nlllr Sunday. OMAHA, May 10. To the Editor ot The Bee: The Master walked by the sea, and there saw two fishermen, and He salth unto them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." They left their nets and followed Him, but nothing Is given to show that they asked for recompense, al though they left their all. A community feels the need of putting forth an extra effort of work along re ligious lines. To win success, and be able to point to tho sheaves gathered from the harvest when tho labor is ended. It Is considered necessary to sent for an expert harvester. To one gifted In painting word pictures, they say, come. In due course of time, he, like the fishermen "follows," but In a different manner. He Journeys In a Pull man oar, and then, only otter being as sured that a certain large sum of money awaits htm at tho completion of his work. It Is true that the laborer Is worthy of his hire, yet tho One tn whose name he comes also said to a certain scribe, "Tho foxes have holes and the birds ot tho air have nests; but the Son of Man hath not where to lay his hood." These are some of the questions that arise in my mind: Are these men termed evangelists. really followers of the lowly Nazareno? Do they preach and teach the doctrine of His religion? Is any community vlsjted by them the richer spiritually, and could, say, $10,000 to $16,000 be used otherwise and accomplish more good? It Is not the aim of the writer to moke light of religion, far from It for the vital question to every man Is the welfare of his own soul. But often question the Instruments and methods used to bring man to a realiza tion of this fact In order that he may be persuaded to act in his own interest in the matter. It's a far cry from the Son of Man. probably barefoot walking along the shores of tho sea of Galilee, to the pres ent tlmo, when one who come to pro claim the doctrine of Balvatlon is enter tained at tho finest hotel; Is dined on tho best in the land, and when he arises beforo the Immense throng Is attired In apparel that would admit htm to the most fashlonnble of the "Four Hundred." in a few days ho leaves, and fnr hi. service he has received an amount of money that would require a wage earner long time to earn by the sweat of his brow.

OMAHA, May 18,-To tho Editor of Th Bee: Some or the -crazy advocates of woman suffrage say that suffrage to women will settle for all time to com all moral questions. They talk as If sufrmir for women will be the panacea for all evils. If such should be the case, why Is tt that political conditions In Colorado and California aro as rotten as any place tn tne united states? if all evils ore go'n to ne suppressed by having woman suf frage why s that the saloons and other places of evil in California run all night? Even now strenuous efforts are being made to keep the legislature of that state from passing a law to compel saloons to close their doors from 1 a. m. to i a.m. Why do not the women see to It that the saloons are controlled In a better manner than they are now In California? The saloons are controlled much better In Nebraska, where we are .not liable to have woman suffrage for many years to come and tt is likely that they would be voted put of Nebraska by the votesof the men today If the question should be sub mitted to the men voters. When the question ot voting tha saloons out of Cali fornia was before the people of that state and, the proposition was defeated, it was claimed that tt would have carried by the vote of the men, but that the women beat it by their votes. It Is all nonsense to talk ot turning the United States Into a heavenly region by giving the women the right to vote, which they largely oppose themselves. I for one do not believe tn forcing onto them what they do not ask for and most of them say they do not want Of course there are 'tome who are asking for suffrage who have families, but most of the leaders In the movement are either slnxle women, or women who have no family and of those who neglect their home duties. Most women are reluctant to mix tn the dirty pool of politics for they feel that they will at least In part lose their self respect Women who mix tn politics even In school affairs have shown that they are capable of using dt reputable means cs well ns men. The erase for woman suffrage seems to be subsiding as was shown In Michigan where suffrage was beaten last tall by only 700 votes and then last motith by about Z?,C0O. The great body ot women of tha country do not want suffrage and I see no use of forcing onto them what they do not nsc for. They can do far more good tn he world outside of politics. So why listen to the few agitators, for we always n&vo that kind of people. VOTER- JOLLIES FROM JUDGE. Crawford I never seo Henpeck any moro out In his auto.
