CHILDREN CHEER FOR PEACE
Make the Welkin Ring at Auditorium
This Morning".
BRYAN SAYS WE MUSf LEAD
Advises (he I'nlted States to Walt
for o atlin, bal to Take
the Lead for World
Peace.
Over 4.000 boys and girls from the public
schools of Omaha sent enthusiastic thrills
through probably 2.000 omcr auditors at the
peace meeting held In Auditorium Tuesday
morning. With waving flags Innumerable,
of all the colors of the opictrum, they kept
the air klrllng, and with voices ot keen
carrying power they made older ears ling
as they seldom do.
School cries, clans yells and many an
Inspired cry of the moment wnt resound
ing across and up und down the big hall,
and was re-echoed from the vaulted roof.
The youngsters were Irrepressible ,and they
enthUKfd over the band, the glee club, the
chorus singers, the orators and everything
where they got half a chunee. It was an
Inspiring sight they furnished, maBscd and
banked row after row and tier on tier
nnd every last unit full to bursting for
peace and quiotude some time, somewhere.
Aside from the thrlilg put Into the meet
ing by tho glorlMcd cn .drcn, John Lee
Webster shot In a few ilong the line that
shivers the air "when the warships clear
for action and the blue battalions wheel."
And William .1. Bryan electrified his hear
ers with some more whirls of feeling based
on Biblical thunders for the righteousness
that exulteth a nation and the smooth
Christian spirit that should move the other
cheek Into tho firing Hue when one has
been smote.
M peaks of Sunshine.
Dr. W. M. Davidson nlrnself loosed many
a shaking heart throb and many a loud
hand clap by his recitation picturing'- the
home-coming ot a wanderer from abroad
to the land "where tho air Is full ot sun
shine and th flag is full of stars." So
altogether it was a great meeting, with
International peace for a base and anything
but a peaceful setting fur a cupola.
Everybody was satisfied and a happy
multitude scattered from the many do3M
Just in time to find the dinner tables
laughing with the fragrant loads.
Mr. Webster, who made tho first address,
spoke subtantlally as follows:
"The parliament of n.an, the federation
of the world, has been the hope of many
as the security for unlveresal peace. It
has been called a 'Utopian dream, a mis
print on the page ot history,' but the
movement keep on as calmly, but as re
sistless, as the aurrent of the oceans, and
by Us Influence warming a sympathetic
and Intellectual sentiment In Its favor
among the people in all the nations.
"A time will come when International
questions will be settled by the arbitration
of a great soveredgn senate, which will
be to Europe what the Parliament is to
England, what the Diet' Is to Germany,
what the Legislature Assembly Is to
France. A day will come when these twq
Immense groups, the United States ot
America and the United States of Europe,
shall be placed In tbe presence ot each
other, extending the hand of fellowship
across the ocean.
Universal Government.
"If universal peace la to coma, It can
only be by the establishment of a uni
versal government, which shall have con
trol over tbe destines ot tha sovereign na
tions1 and clothed with the powef 'to efl-'
force Its decrees.
"Is tho age of peace to be inaugurated
by the union of all tho people of the earth
Into a universal brotherhood, based on the
fundamental principles of the constitution
of the UnlUd States? The query Is sug
gested by the published outline ot such a
constitution, drafted by William Osborne
McDowell ot New York. Its Introduction
Is In language Imposing, grand In concep
tion and noble In sentiment. It reads:
'We, the people of this earth, in order to
avail ourselves of all experience and to ap
propriate its best results for the good of
the world, to substitute Justice for force,
right for might in all human relationships
and to secure for all mankind, .now and
forevermore, all the blessings of liberty,
peace, Justice and good will, do hereby
formulate and agree upon thla constitution.'
Such a constitution would require the con
sent for Its adoption, and to be included
within Its Jurisdiction a world citizenship,
made of Americans and Europeans, China
men and Japanese, whits men and black
men, Turks and Egyptians, Christians and
Mohammedans, Buddhist) and pagan J, k ns
doms and empirts and republics.
"A writer in speaking ot such a proposed
constitution said It should embody all tlu;
loftiest concepth na and aspirations of
every race for tne uplift - ot the human
family, from Moses nnd David, Solomon
and the Hebrew prophets, from Buddha,
Mohammet, Plato and Socrates, to Wash
ington, Jefferson and Lincoln.- It should
epitomise In Its spirit all the immortal doc
uments of llbertv and peace, the Swiss
Compact. Magna Charta, the English BUI
of'Kights, the Dirlaratlon of Independ
ence Lincoln's Gettysburg speech and tho
constitutions of every liberty-loving nation
ot tho earth. '
V ulteU States should Lead.
"Should the United States be the initia
tive In bringing universal peace and union
to all the nations ot the earth under u
constitution co grant In thought und pur
pose. It would bo a glory to our country
surpassing all other of Its great achieve
ments In behalf of freedom In government
and tho advance ment of the general good
ot munklnd. Many things have been
prophesied of the ultimate destiny of the
I'nlted States, but this Is one greater than
them all. So vast la Its dream-like con
ception that, while It appeals to the hu
manitarian, It dailies and bewilders the
thinker und statesman. It Involves a trans
formation in human affairs, In Individual
and national Interests, and In race In
stincts that passes human wisdom. It In
volves the working out of an economical
problem among sovereign stales, the like
of which. In magnitude and Importance for
the welfare ot mankind, has never beeu
undertaken. It Involves an Ideullsm which
never before, has assumed a tangible
shape."
Mr. Webster referred to what he con
ceives to the danger to tiie peace of the
e elves to be the danger to the pece of the
Asiatic nation, particularly Uie amhltl
eus Japanese and the slowly awakening
Chinese. In throe he sees a possible men
ace, and be urges tho Pacific states to be
careful to avoid stirring up the opposi
tion of the Asiatics through the means of
discriminatory legislation, ' such as ex
clusion laws arjd the like. Japan and China
arc far more in danger ot being overrun
by Americans than Is America In danger
of an industrial Invasion from Asia. In
eastern Asia he sees the only real menace
to world's peace, and concludes:
Treat with Thl.a. that Are.
"We must deal with thev w orld as It Is.
The, time haa noisome when, Europe and
Amarlca can disarm. International law
recognises war a the Irgltlmate exercls
of force by a nation to protect lis rigtiu
or honor. Ni self-respecting nation will
surrender this essential privilege of sov
ertignity uuiil all oter nations have ad
v a need to that high standard when all
regardless of rare, or color, or language,
or religion shall stand on an admitted
equality under the constitution that shall
govern all the earth.
"Until that pirlod arrives the United
States should have the cordial and gen
erous support ot lovers and advocates of
peace, in building and maintaining a navy
that will give her the power to enforce
her demands and make her requests re
spected everywhere. It can command and
maintain peace In Asia If It be strong
enough in Its war machinery, but It It
becomes weak, tho evolution that la going
on across the Pacific will surely and un
expectedly again make the sky lurid with
the flames of war, and the United States
cannot then avoid It If It would. And
should It come, it will be the greatest and
bloodiest war ot all history. I am not an
alarmist. I am appealing to peacemakers
to accept and adopt the surest method to
secure peace. Establish peace in Asia and
the time will be near when the peace gov
ernment of the United Slates of the world
may be Inaugurated."
Walt for 'o Matlou.
Mr. Bryan, In the field ot peace as in the
field of politics, would not wait for the ad
vice, consent or action ot any other nation.
He said:
"I would prefer that this nation shall set
an example for peace, and not wait until
other nations are ready tj come In and
Join with us."
The lecturer, whose big set piece is enti
tled "The Prince ot Peace," set out In his
powerful manner the thought that Intellec
tual, political and moral progress are all
making for and stand buck ot the world
wide peace movement; and these three fac
tors find their very strongest development
In tha United Mates. "But back of these
there Is a more fundamental reason," he
said. "It is the great spirit of brotherhood
manifesting Itself in tho tnoral regeneration
of the world. On this ground we are ahead
of all the nations of the eurth, and in no
other nation have they learned so well the
costly tolly of war."
In his opening Mr. Bryan said that the
American traveler In foreign lands learns
ut least to appreciate all the more the
blessings he has at home. "The greatest
enjoyment Is in getting back home, and
being here 1 havo a greater pride thnn
ever In my nation's primacy among the
nations of the earth, In almost every line
of advancement."
Pupils Sing; for Bryan,
He told of an impressive Incident In a
normal school at San Paulo, in Braiil.
where the pupils recited for him In Ene
llsli, and for a climax sang "My Country,
"'tis of Thee" In English.
"There was no experience abroad that
touched more deeply than that. They love
uh, not for our warships or the threat of
our flag, but because of what we have done
and are doing for them. I believe, then,
the highest Ideal Is to conquer the world
with Ideas; that it is better to persuade
than to coerce."
Ha pictured as the three strong influ
ences back of the peace movement the
world's greater Intellectual growth, in
China, Japan, India and South America, as
well as in 'Europe and the United Statea.
"They have more teachers, more pupils
and better teaching than ever before in
the history of the world, and they have
these In every laud. Then we have the
growth of popular government Armies
and peoples are no longer the property of
kings, and as popular government grows
the people recognise the need 1 for peace.
Moral progress Is Marvelous and Is ex
tending widely, especially In the United
States. Here we have more altruism than
In any country in the world. Here we are
sending more money to other countries,
from unselfish motives, than some ot those
countries are -spending themselves for al
truistic purposes, and as a result the ideals
ot publlo and domestio life- are growing
Bteadily to a higher plane. Every force In
society is making toward peace, steadily
and with most encouraging success.
"The doctrine of the Prince of Peace Is
the motive power behind all this, and
eventually we may hope to see the rule
established that, before any declaration of
war or opening of hostilities, the differ
ences ot nations will be submitted, to a
court of arbitration that will separate ques
tions of fact from queetlons of honor or
finance."
Mr. Bryan was escorted to the platform
by Dr. Davidson, D. C. Patterson and
Labor Commissioner Maupln. On the plat
form with the speakers were Mayor Dahl
n.an, members of the echool board and
school officers.
The High School band Indulged in a
number of short, stirring pieces and the
High School Qloe club sang several songs
and had to respond to two encores. The
Wagner chorus sang a classical selection
and a quartet from the same organisation
also rendered an appropriate song.
llov. T. H. McConnell, pastor ot West
minster Presbyterian church, made the
opening invocation, and Rabbi Colin of
Tcmplo Israel mado .the closing prayer.
When thla was finished the Wagner
chorus led tho audlenoe In sinning "Amer
ica," and was ably helped by the High
School Oloe club and band.

accidents at railroad crossings.
"That ordinance provides that street car
conductors must be provided with lunterns
with red lights," said the Ninth ward coun
cilman, "which they shall take with them
when they alight to signal the motormen
at dangerous crossings. So far as I have

and we should know why. .
"The company was furnished with a copy
of the ordinance. In the regular way, and
unless there Is some good reason why the
ordinance Is being Ignored tho city will
