LINCOLN. June 14 (Special.) At the mneting of the postmasters this afternoon Krnest M. Pollard, republican nominee for congress in this district, talking on the j'alla City platform, came out flatfooted for an antlpaas bill, si pressed the belief that the nest republican state convention , would adopt sch a plank In its platform, and apolce In favor of giving the railroad - commission power to regulate rates and to prevent the giving of rebates. "The Falls City platform," he said, "waa just such a platform as one would expect to emanate from a republlcoAt convention. What the republican party puts into Its platforms .will be written into law." lie told of the evolution of a business man into a trust and declared the time bad come for the government to take the . place of the old time competition. This, because the formation of trusts had made the cost of production less while it had not reduced the price to consumers. At the Falls City convention, he said, the republicans had spoken on the pass proposition, and it was the belief of the . speaker that the note sounded there would : be taken up by tho republicans in conven ' tiou all over the state and that the next ' republican state convention would instruct its candidatca to work for the passage of an sntipass law. V "It has been claimed," Mr. Pollard said, 1 "that the last lcglHlature was corrupt and failed to do Its duty. I do not believe that. I believe the men who composed that legis lature wer honest, but here is tho trouble. The first thing a member of the legislature runs against after he Is elected is some one . with an annual pass. He is given to under stand that he can secure passes for his . family and friends. Not a word Is said about the remuneration the railroads will demand and the legislator accepts the pnsses and secures more for his .friends. - Then conies the bills affecting the railroads. The legislator Is under obligations to the railroad, for whenever ( someone does a favor to another that man feels under obligations It Is not because the legislator Is not honest, but It is because he realizes that he is under obligations to the railroad. "What should be asked a candidate," he concluded, "is not whether he is a friend of tho Burlington or the Union Pacific or tne iNortnwestern, nut whether he is a friend of the people?" , The proceedings wore noted today by the number of prominent men who were on the program. Chancellor1 Andrews came first and then Walter B. Oetty, representing the third assistant postmaster general; United States Senator Millard, Congressman K. H. Jllnshaw, F. II. Cunningham, Ernest M. Pollard, republican candidate for congress In. tho First district; Congressman John V. Kennedy and United States Senator Bur kett. The other Nebraska congressmen wrote letters of regret that they were un able to be present. Cunningham, who as president of the Itural Letter Carriers' association, was suspended because of alleged "pernicious activity" in politics, stated emphatically that he was not active in the support of any candidate and then quoted the federal con- CIIADROff ACADEMY GR ADCATIOH Kxerelaea Attract a Large Komber of People.

INCREASE IN SCHOLARSHIP THE CAUSE Annual Addreaa to Phi Beta Kappa Deals with the Share of the Edncated Man In the World's Work. LINCOLN, June It, (Special.) At the an nual banquet of the Phi Beta Kappa at the Lincoln hotel last night Hon. John L. Webster of Omaha was the guest of honor. About fifty members of the society sat down to dinner together. Dr. Wilson presid ing. After the dinner the members re paired to Memorial hall, where the public was admlted to hear the address of the occasion, which was made by Mr. Web ster. The hall was well filled, and the auditors listened attentively while the speaker eloquently ejctolled the excellence of the combination of the scholar and the man of action, and portrayed the growing Importance of the American people In all the affairs of humanity, ascribing the growth to the extension of scholarship. Ancients Are Maanifled. John L. Webster spoke in part as follows: .(Demosthenestlives'almost entirely in tra- cuuon. mere naa Deeserectea oy professors and scholars around his name a scaffolding from which they expostulate on his oratory as the greatest and most nearly perfect model. How many of these have ever read the speeches of Edmund Burke, of Henry Clay, of Daniel Webster, of Wendell Phil lips, of Henry Ward Beecher? Thousands have read and will continue to read these modern orators in preference to Demos thenes. This lovo and admiration of the ancients Is not so much on account of their real merit or value, but may be compared to the admiration of the connoisseur for the antique. Let me Illustrate my thought by the opinions expressed of the canonized Plato by two of the most eminent men of modern history; two men who were recog nized as among the best scholars of their age; two men who had most to do with the founding of liberty on the western hemis phere; two men who served on the com mittee that prepared the Declaration of In dependence, one its draughtsman, and the other a colossus in its support on the floor of congress; two men each of whom served as representatives of their country at the courts of the most highly civilized and learned nations of Europe; two men who each had held the highest offices In the gift of the people, vice president and president of the United States; two men whose memories are dear to the hearts of the Americans Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. Progress of Centuries. If we were to undertake to reduce our nation of the present age to the social and commercial and political insignificance of those ancient times, we would take from ourselves all those things which make our people happy, progressive and prosperous. We would have to lake from our farmers all the modern Implements of husbandry. We would have to take away the woolen and cotton mills and supply their places with the old hand family looms. We would take away all our mills and factories wherein machinery Is run by steam power. We would take from our streets the asphaltum pavements, the electric street oars, the automobiles and the elevated roads. We would take from the buildings the elevators and from our business offices the stenographers, the typewriters and the bookkeepers. From our dwellings we would take the sewing machine and Dresden and Havlland china tableware.. We would take the cooking ranges from our kitchens and patent devices from the laundries, and we would dispense with anthracite coal, the illuminating oils and our gas and electric lights. From our army we would take the guns and cannons and gunpowder, and In their places put bows and arrows and pikes and snort sworos. trora our towns and cities we would take our banking houses and chambers of commerce. We would take away our common schools and colleges and universities, and from our state govern ments our orphan and Insane asylums and hospitals. We would take away our steam engines and telegraphs and telephones. We would take away our railroads and ocean steamers. We would take away our newspapers and our printing presses. We would have to forget all the discoveries in science since tne aays or uacon ana rsewion. ana cancel from the catalogues of our libraries the histories of hundreds of years. We would have to forget what knowledge and liberty has done to elevate the human race, and what good governments have done for the benefit of mankind. We would so hack to an age when it would have taken Caesar longer to go the length of the Mediter ranean In the discomforts of a rowboat fban It now takes the American citizen to travel around the circle of the globe In the comfort of a rullman car and the cabin de luxe of an ocean Hteamer. And when we had done all this we still would be In advance of the pastoral and warlike peoples of old Greece and ancient Rome. Enailsh a World's l.ansrnaire. The English language, which In the days of WashinKton and JYanklln was the native tongue of less than 6O.0uO.UOO of people, is now spoken by 0,un0,oir0 and Is destined to become the generally accepted language of the world. The reasons for this are obvi ous. England with Its empire extends in a circle around the world, and Its citizens and official agents and merchantmen go everywhere, among all nations and all peonies. The United States with its 80,000,000 of English speaking people Is destined to reach within tho twentieth century 300,000,000 and to give hor language a supremacy In every land where her trade and commerce shall go throughout the hemispheres. With two such powerful and growing nations as the British empire and the American republic speaking the same language and dominating the trade and commerce and politics of the world, It is assured that their language shall become the accepted language In which all civilized nations will transact their commercial business and will become the essential language of all scholars and travelers and the universal official lan guage of all courts. America has set the pace to the rest of the world In knowledge and education. Just as It has In material progress. Since the Spanish war, when within a few months the United States changed the map of two hemispheres an! convinced the brother hood of nations that we, ton, were a world power, no one longer af the question who sails an American shit, or who fires an American gun. So, too, no longer does any one ask the question who reads an Ameri can book. Now comes Prof. Boyce. who tells us that there are more undergradutea at Harvard than at Oxford, and more at Yale than at Cambridge, and that the fivo universities of Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Princeton and Pennsylvania count as many students as do all the universities of England, and that the proportion of college graduates to the whole population Is larger in America than In any country In Europe, and If we take only graduates of colleges that rank with the beat in Europe, the proportion In the United States will be as hlKh as It Is In Germany or Switzerland or Scotland, and hlcher than it Is In Encland. Proudly and gladly can an American repeat these decla rations rrom tne pen oi so eminent an Englishman and be free from any charge of undue ostentation. PATRIOTS TRUE TO FLAG At Least Three in Nebraska, Qreenleaf Bush and Despaines. ANNIVERSARY CAUSES NO COMMOTION Hoosler State Comrade Unfurls Old iilory and Lincoln Statesmen Hasten to Omaha to Do Homie, Bam Greenleaf of the city clerk's office, having had his raising In the Hoosler state, never forgets anything, especially a holi day. Befire he started for the city hall Wednesday morning he unfurled the Stars and Stripes from his front porch. Then he proceeded on his way down town, happy In the consciousness that he had performed a patriotic duty. He looked around to see other flags and noticed only one, that on the federal building. His heart swelled with pride that he had not forgotten. Fifteen minutes after he reached the city hall he was summoned to the telephone. "What havo you got that flag out for at your house?" queried the voice. "Because it Is June 14, Flag day, you rummy," responded the schoolboy associate of Eugene V. Debs, Alice Fisher and other notables, not forgetting hh relationship to Vine President Fairbanks and the poet, Whlttler. 'Humph," said the voice on the 'phone. it's a wonder you couldn't let somebody else In on the deal." Similar telephone Interrogations punctu ated the morning at regular intervals. It is Flag day, officially so designated because on June 14, 1777 congress authorized the present flag of the republic. But the dnte was poorly remembered In Omaha. Through some mistake It was left out of the school board's handbook and Janitors had no Instructions about raising tho national banner over tho school houses. At some schools the fact was noted and the proper thing done; at others Is was not. On a few public buildings old glory was flung out, but for tne most part tho birth day of the emblem went unmarked and unspoken. But Sam Greenleaf is not the only patriot who remembered his duty to his country. Deputy Labor Commissioner Bush and Assistant Despaines recalled the fact even before they got out of bed at Lincoln and hurriedly got things together for a little celebration in Omaha. Mr. Bush is spending tho day at home trying to lnculate In his boys the principles of true Americanism and the scientific: bene fits of observing holidays. Jnat What Everyone Should Do. Mr. J. T. Barber of Irwlnvllle, Ga., al ways keeps a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy at hand ready for Instant use.
