Tho resolutions adopted follow:
"Wo, tho democrats of Nobrnskn, as
sembled In convention In tho midst of
tho supremo crlslH of tho world's civlllzn
tlon, know but one duty, recognize but
ono Issue, accept but one lender. Tho
duty Is to offer our blood nnd treasure,
-without stint or limit, to crush the beast
of German autocracy. Tho Issue li
whether tlmt nutocracy, booted nnd
spurred, shall rldo the world, to tho de
struction of all human liberty, happiness
And proKress or whether It shall be made
a fit and safo placo In which free men
may live, build their homes nnd rear their
families. Tho leader Is Woodrow Wilson,
the president of tho United States and
commander-in-chief of our armies and
navy. Into his keeping all that wo prize
and all that wo hopo for has been en
trusted. In his bands we have placed
our heroic sons dearer to us than life
Itself. Thoy nro his instruments. Their
bared bosoms are tho shields of our homo
and our womenklnd. ThrouRh blood nnd
agony nnd tears tho world Is moving to
wards Its coal. Wo are solemnly Im
pressed with tho truth that If wo unsel
fishly and to tho uttermost sustain our
leader, who Is nt tho same time the leader
of tho world's forces of morality nnd
progress, of honor nnd law, that goal
-will mako tho triumph of our cause
and tho eternal glory of our arms. And
we aro ns solomnly Impressed that If we
fall In united, devoted and self-sacrificing
support wo contribute to palsy the arm
of him who Is the hope of thn world, to
mako vain the sacrlflco of multitudes of
our dearest nnd best, nnd to open tho
agates through which tho foul beast of
Berlin will soon or later ndvanco to crush
our womanhood under tho snme Iron and
polluting heel that 1ms crushed martyred
Belgium.
"Fellow countrymen, of Nebraska, of all"
parties, from tho depths of our hearts wo
oall to you, how, In such a day, Is It
?osalblo that free men should hesitate?
low Is It possible that they should stop
-to quarrel nnd quibble over mole hills
-when tho majestic mountains of human
.achievements nnd human rights aro
trembling on their foundations? How.
In such n time, can sane men think of
playing for parties nnd advantages!
"Wo can win this wnr, wo can nerve
our.sonB In arms only by support of our
superb president, Woodrow Wilson. We
can support him by giving him the bnck
Ing of a friendly nnd sympathetic con
gress. Wo cannot support lilin by elect
ing a congress seeking to supplant him.
Neither can wo sunnort him bv distract
ing the attention of energies of tho
American people from wnr dutloH to other
Issues that In happier nnd serener days
-might well bo of great importance. And
o wo say In solemn earnestness that
there is but nno Issue nnd but one lo-.ider,
and that bcsldo our duty to them other
duties nnd other desires fado to nothing
ness. Tlmt duty includes tho protection
of our sons nt homo as well as abroad,
and of tho free American Institutions for
which they right. Wo must perform this
duty by putting down the odious profiteer,
by planting our heel mercilessly on sedi
tion. By sustaining the constitution nnd
tho laws by giving our wealth, our labor
jind our energy to one end. Wo feel con
strained In tho dlschnrge of this supreme
duty to call tho nttentlnn of tho people
of Nebraska to certain facts of record.
"To tho boys In, tho trenches nnd camps
and at sea who nro offering their lives in
their country's ciiuso we send loving
.greetings. While wo remain safelv at
home they nro fighting our battles. They
aro suffering untold hardships nnd mak
ing: the greatest sacrifices It Is possible for
men to make. Their cause shall be ever
our cause, nnd In pledging our support
to their commander-ln-chier, wo pledge It
nllko to them. And such n commander-in-chief!
Never In history tins there been
time when tho strnlnlng eyes nnd
throbbing hopes of civilized mankind
turned to ono man as thoy turn today to
"Woodrow Wilson! Serene, strong, patient,
firm. Ho towers above the statesmanship
of tho world. In his wisdom, In his de
votion, In his superb moral courage, in
Ills fervor for democracy and human
rights he stands matchless nnd thorough.
All time, all nges shall call him blessed.
To his support, to tho end of his great
task, wo Dlodgo our lives, our fortunes
and our snored honor.
"Wo commend tho rocord of our demo
cratic stnto administration nnd nro proud
of It. It hns kept its promises nnd pledges
-with scrupulous fidelity. . It hns been
clean, courageous and splendidly patri
otic. It has enforced tho laws. It has
