Greater Omaha, Opportunities.
The achievement of Greater Omaha con
solidation Is chiefly important by reason of the
opportunities it will afford our own people it
tbey will only take full advantage of them. Up
to this time we have always had to be ex
plaining how what waa really one city happened
to be divided artificially Into two cities and
several suburban towns and the explanation
seldom penetrated. The thing we want to do
first of all, therefore. Is to have the statua of
the Greater Omaha officially fixed so that our
rightful rank among the cities of the country
will be accorded without a special demand In
tach Instance.
Although the merger of the cities does not In
itself add a single inhabitant to the number al
ready here. It ought to be a substantial factor
for attracting population and capital Invest
Ur.ents. It ought especially to enable us to put
forth more effectively our claims to recognition
as the national location for distributing
branches, or agencies, of the great manufactur
ing establishments that find a market for their1
wares In this section. Kansas City, for example,
Is . just opening a $1,600,000 warehouse and
plant, put up there as a branch of a gigantic
mercantile concern, whose main headquarters
is in Chicago. True, Omaha, already haa the
distributing houses for many national manu
facturers, but we should have more of them
we should have all of them.
While inviting new concerns. We must not
neglect our own home Industries, which should,
w henever possible, have , preference over out
side competitors, because their -growth means
steadily enlarging employment for home people,
who In turn spend their earnings In the chan
nels of local trade.
In a word Oreater Omaha, as applying to a
unified city government, means mostly a greater
and more unimpeded field for development.
Dealing With Oreat Britain.
Overshadowed hy the more Important nego
tiations with Germany, the dealings between
the United States and Great Britain on the sub
ject of overseas commerce almost has been lost
sight of by the public. It 1 again brought to
view by the receipt of a communication at the
Ftate department, from Great Britain, the text
of which is not aa yet made public. Publication
of its contents rests with Great Britain.
The fact remains, however, that the United
Ptates has never ceased in Its protest against
the British order In council, which was sub
scribed to by the other powers of the Triple
I-.ntente, setting up a constructive blockade of
German porta, and undertaking to Justify a gen
eral interference with traffic' between the
United States and European neutrals. Our gov
ernment has steadily and Insistently upheld the
right to freely traffic with neutral ports, and
essuranre Is given that this position will not be
abandoned. . . -
Many cargoes shipped from or destined to
the United States are now being held up by Brit-
Inh Interference, and for the liberation of these
representations are being made. to the British
government. The, right of neutrala to trade
In non-contraband articles is the basts of the
protest sent front this country, and there Is no
Indication of any Intention to recede fiom the
stand taken on the point. The situation Is not
acute, nor I It likely It will become so, but the
uttltude of the British government presently
will have to be finally declared.
Jmt Looking1 Around.
Of conrse, the fact may have no especial
significance, Silt Chris Gruenther visited the
federal building In Omaha and made a survey
of the office of the collector of Internal revenue.
He took note of the location of the doors and
windows, and the arrangement of the desks and
chairs In the office, and walked away. On the
came day, "Tommy" Allen dropped In casually
at Washington, and walked the full length of
the pie-counter, without saying a word about
being named for the office of district attorney
for Nebraska. Neither of these patriots is look
ing for anything to happen; they are Just look
ing around, and wondering what might be the
result It the long-deferred distribution of re
wards for service were commenced. And the
faithful are also wondering if the senator will
yet prevail, and, If he does, will he dare to give
out the jobs before the primary is held next
spring? 1
Nearer to the Bole.
One German submarine captain has found t
expedient to very nearly, at least, observe the
iule laid dowa for dealing with merchantmen In
tercepted at sea. when he required the captain
of the Norwegian vessel to jettison that part of
Ma cargo held to be contraband.
This practice may not be generally adopted
Ja the course of submarine warfare on commerce,
but It is a decided Improvement on the methods
heretofore employed. Tt would seem to be well
In keeping with the effective use of the sub
mersible In blockading commerce In enemy
waters, too. If the submarine may be thus em
ployed, and commerce be so Interfered with,
much of the objection to the use of the under
ea boat will be removed. It has been the in
human practice of sinking the ship on a moment's
notice, and, at times, without notice, tbst has
aroused the Indignation of the nations.
Indiana Election Methods.
Following the lead of the federal courts,
the state courts of Indiana are actively pursu
ing the men who have manipulated elections in
the Hoosler state of recent years. Disclosures at
the trial of the Terre Haute gang have prepared
the public to believe almost anything in connec
tion with the practice of politics In Indiana, but
the indictment of 118 men at Indianapolis, for
corrupting the vote of that city, cornea as some
thing of a surprise. "Tom" Taggart, former
chairman of the democratic national committee,
a prominent figure In that party's national
council, and a champion of Bryan, la caught la
the net, which shows the grand jury went into
the matter without any regard for the outside
standing of the suspected culprits. Indiana Is
epparently beat on a general house cleaning,
and Is determined not to let cne of the election
manipulators get easy.
Mr. Jupiter Pluvius has stopped off In
Omaha quite often enough for the present If
he wanti to avoid wearing his welcome out.
Under .the Lid in Berlin
' By Madeline S. Doty.
DON'T go." tiM the American emheeey at The
Hague. "Americana aie hot wanted. Tou may
Set Into trouble."
I packed my hna; with beating heart. Go I would
for why live unlemi adventure? But I spoke no Ger
man. How could It be managed? My head waa full
of taes of hardahlp and Imprleonment. The Lualtanla
had -Juat been aunk. I had never been to German.
Berlin waa a atranae city.
I pinned my little American flag and mv Hague
Peace congress badge on the lapel of my cot. My
paaoport I tucked In my pocket With a email hand
bag and no prlntedi or written word I started forth.
Fortunately a 'Hungarian newspaper woman whom
I had met. traveled by the earn train. We wre an
lll-aaaorted pair. She. petite and feminine and full of
gay light humor; I, aertoui. clad In bualneaa clothes
with many capacious pockets, "linn marl," she called
me. "Ma femme" proved a very useful person. She
spoke five languages. Porn In Russia with French
ancestors, living In Paris, and married to a Hungarian,
her heart waa with the allies. Life In Budapest wna
difficult. She dreaded return. But her l!b German
tongue and Hungarian marriage made her persona
grata In Germany,
When wa had secured rooms at a holej we started
forth to tee the city. A passing throng filled the
FrlPdrtchitrsese, but fialf were soldiers. Every fifth
person was In mourning or wore a black bend upon
the sleeve. The facet in the electric light looked pale
and tense. There waa much talk, but no laughter.
Kvery now and then one caught the word "Lue't
anla." Only the day before the steamship had been
sunk.
I clung to my companion. We talked In whispers.
Once or twice an Erufllsh word between us caught the
ear of a passerby, who turned, flushed and angry, to
glare upon me. T soon ceased ' speaking. In the
restaurant I made wild guensee and pointed at dishes
on the menu and uttered no sound. I felt aa I had
during my voluntary week In prison, when under the
hostile and unfriendly ayes of the matrons.
The hotel had given us "bread cards." With these
we secured some black and sour-tasting bread, dona
up In seated paper packages. Under her breath my
companion confided that Hungary was worse off than
Germany. Hungary waa nearly breadlesa. ' Germany
had bought Hungary's flour supply.
That night we went to the Winter Oarden. The
place waa filled with soldiers. One festure of the per
formance was a aeries of living tableaux depleting
war. They were Intended to Inspire wild patriotism.
But the soldiers were silent; only a mild applauao
greeted the effort One seen, symbolic of stupendous
heroism the last Soldier firing the laat shot was re
ceived In grtm silence.
All Berlin Is grim and tense. People pass and re
pass on the street The shops are open, lire goes on.
But there is no genial friendliness, no lingering over
a glass of beer, no bit of gay song. Everywhere there
are gray, dusty and worn uniforms. When a troop of
soldiers pass, their faces are pale, their feet drag. The
goose-step has vanished.
With departure of my companion, t settled down
in a German home, a modest menage, but every de
tail perfect. All Germany runs without friction.
My host Is a university 'professor, his wife an
American. They are all hospitality, but their sealous
ness torments me. I am the heathen whose soul must
be saved.
From the day of my arrival to the moment of my
departure, we have but one topic of conversation
Germany's virtues and America's sins. A great pity
el sea me for this tragic couple. Their thin, pallid
facea bespeak wracked nerves and tortured souls.
Under the domination of a government they adore,
they dare not criticise. . To question would be to ahat
tr their world. German culture, German art, the
government, Bismarck, the kalaer, the invasion of
Belgium, the sinking of the Luaitaalav in all things
Germany is wisdom and righteousness. Surrounded by
enemies, , wicked monsters, Germany, the perfect. Is
fighting for Its life. Better a thousand times thst
the Lusltsnia be sunk and Americana killed than let
American bullets reach the allies to Inflict death, on
German soldiers.
"American bullets" hourly the phrase is flung In
my face.
The grain supplies are running tow. Not only
bread, but fodder for the animals. Is lacking. The
cattle are being killed and put la cold storage to save
the expense of feeding. The few cab horses in Berlin
fall in the street from hunger. In all trains are printed
the following "Ten Commandments":
(1.) Don't eat more than necessary. Don't eat be
tween meals.
!.) Consider bread sacred. Use every little piece.
Dry bread makes good soup.
(. B economical with butter and fat Vse am
Instead of butter. Moat of the fat wa get from
abroad.

(7.) Drink leae beer and alcohol: then the supply

(8.) Eut vegetables and fruit. Plant vegetables in
every little piece of earth. Be economical with pre
served vegetables.
19.) (tather all you don't eat for the animals.
(10.) fook with gas and coke. The ashes from
coke make good fertiliser.
Moral Obey these ten commaridmerita and
economise for the Fatherland. The rich must also
fullow these commandments.
With the fresh crops haa come renewed strength.
But when the fall comes, what Is to be dono? There
Is no longer a canning Industry for there U no tin.
In such an atmosphere of depression Mid suppres
sion my free American spirit suffocstei. I plan an
escape. Komewhere In Berlin are free tearless souls.
These I must find. My hosts fear to have me ven
ture out alone. One ef the Amerloan peace delegates
was driven by an angry mob from a tram car for
speaking English.
' I take my map and study It. 1 have the addreaaea
of some social democrats. How to get to them? My
hosts do not tolerate such people.
Then alone, map In hand. I atari out. I walk
many weary blocks. Blinking along aide streets and
avoid the combination of tram-car conversations. 1
seem to be living In the days of conspiracies and dims
novels. And truly I am, for day by day the plot
thickens.
t am received with open arms by the rebel women,
and at once nicknamed the "criminal." In them I find
the Germans I sought. Free, freeless people, whose
lave for the Fatherland Is so great that they dare
protest!
But theae women are momentarily In danger. Their
gatherlnga are secret. We meet In out-of-the-way
places. I find that my telephone messages ere Inter
cepted; that a perfectly harmless letter f never de
livered. I am watched. It la hard to believe. Surely
I have dropped back Into the middle agee I have to
pinch myself to realise that I am an American, living
in the twentieth century.
Kven in the midst of war Germany Is superbly
run. The lawns are weedleas, the flower beds won
derful, lite streets are clean. The tasks the able
bodied men left are performed by women, children and
old men. Nothing is neglected. I weat through Ber

OMAHA. June tl.-To the Flltor of
The Bee: Cmler the rsptlon of "Con
vinced by a Medium," a writer In your
Lnttcr Box column refers to his ex
perience with a medium and the manl
fistatlons from shadow land. One of the
shortest courses to Insanity and evlcide
Is to take part In the -.ncdiumlstlc fcancea.
At first the person lnCulgcs in these
n'ani Testations through a sense cf curl
oxity and later from Interest and finally
from a sense of demand for It grows on
tltem till they are tina'ole to sh.ike off
the practice.
To get right to the point In the matter,
excluding practices that are fake pre
sentations, these manifestations are the
operations of intelllgonrts and not by
any means Intelligences of good spirits,
for God docs not use good spirits for a
bsnd end. There Is only one final result
from the ccntlnuei practice of spirit
ualistic seancea and that is loss of all
true faith and obsession, or possession
by the bad Intel ltgences In other words,
the evil spirits of the damned. This is
better demonstrated In pagan countries,
where this practice is more In vogue and
where the evil effects sra more common.
Jf you will have a talk with old medical
practitioners snd with Catholio ptlests
you will soon become assured of the great
evils to body and soul by the continua
tion of this Practice. After a while these
spirits or Intelligences begin to suggest
gallons to their clients which In them
selves sre harmless snd the poor sub
ject finds himself or herself unable to
refuse performing the acts suggested.
Then farther actions are suggested and
thcae likewise cannot be refused and
from that It goes on fiom had to worse
and despite the cognisance of the poor
mortal and the final attempt r.t will
power to refuse these acquiesce nces. they
are unable to do so. Then some further
action la suggested perhaps the action
of self destruction or the destruction of
another and unless the grace of God
Intervenes at this point this likewise is
accomplished.
Not so long ag6 a woman In France
was given to this practice, and she called
for her youngest daughter's spirit, who
bsd died some months before. The In
telligence appeared and, feigning the ap
pearance and voice of her daughter, as
sured her tbat she was poorly off In the
other world and sad for the lack of her
sisters' association and begged the
mother to send them to her. The woman
brooded over the affair and auggestlon
snd finally going to the River Selr.e she
tied ber two children' together, hands
and feet, and threw them In. and both
were drowned. There are many In
stances on record of murder under dif
ferent forms, suicides, etc.. that owe
their cause to the Interest taken in the
splrituaiistlo seances. Many men who
have gone Into this matter through a
purely acientlflo motive learned they
were gradually losing their health, will
power, and that they were becoming a
prey to the suggestions ef these Intelli
gences. It Is with good reason for their
present health, faith and future condi
tion . that the Catholic church forbids,
under pain ef sin, for any of Its subjects
to enter Into or take , pert In. these
seances.
Some time ago missionary frooi Eha
land who had apent years In Africa came '
back to England to find tha people in
dulging In the use of "planchettes," '
"crystal gazing," spirits' seances, etc.,
gave a long lecture. In which he stated
he was dumfounded at this state of af
fairs In Ms own country, for that waa
hla work, combatting the evil effects of
this very practice in the locality he
spent his years ss a missionary. I will
give this warning: A good way to loss
your health, peace and future betterment
Is to tsks part In. any practlca that has
for ita pleasure or interest the Invocation
of these evil Intelligences. That they ap
peartalk, walk and do many strange
things no one well acquainted with the
subject will deny, but their only motive
In furnishing this amusement and Inter
est to mortals Is to gradually trap them
Into tha loss of their health, faith in God
and 1n the final loss of their soul, if
they did not accomplish this successfully
In many cases they would desist in the
practice, because they don't work, run
about, act and trouble themselves about
others without the hope of a reward any
more than you or I would.

KEAPJVEY. Neb.. June JS. To the
Editor of The Bee: Aa the conclusion, of
peace negotiations between the United
States and Mexico and the diplomatic
controversy w'lh Germany is drawing
more near the ultimate result become
moie and more a matter of conjecture.
There la a diversity of opinion as to
whether or not intervention In Mexico
would be advisable, and those that are
concerned are waiting feverUhly Ger
many's reply to Wilson's note. The most
optimistic statesmen admit that there la
a possibility of war with Germany. Ex.
Secretary Bryan, however, la offoring a
solution which he avers will not only
avert war with Germany, but which will
ultimately bring universal peace. The
writer hopes Mr. Bryan can deliver the
goods, but la of the opinion that he
should have offered his panacea, before
making his exit fror-i the ciMt and
frankly admits that 111 hie Judgment it
will Teulre the Influence cf mora thai
one American ritlsen and posit hi y more
than one president to bring to a con
clufclon the present war. Mr. Bryan
refera to, or Infers that the present war
is a causeless war. The writer differs
with Mr..: Bryan aj U this point and
c.alma there la a tu for the present
Turopeau conflict. While It Is llljKlcai,
It Is apvarei t that all leaders of nations,
except President Wilson, are Intoxicatet
with an insatiable desire for supremacy
personal power. The few men -ho had
the power to bring on thla conflict are.
with a few exceptions, pltiles-ily cruel.
Inordinately egotistical, debauched and
dissipated to a degree nearly, if not
quite, approaching Imbecility.
W. J. Bryan la shrewd, scheming
politician. His Interests centers around
W. J. Fryan. Ha ia a great advertiser
of Bryan). He wants to be president of
the Uu'ted Status. And the writer doesn't
censure him because of hla presidential
aspirations. Who wouldn't be president
of the 1'nlted Ktatea If it were possible ?
But there are men not se changeable as
la Mr. Bryan, That which he is In favor
of today he may oppose ton r row. Ju
sanctioned the killing, with Justifications,
of nineteen American hoys and more
than ) Mexicans st Vera Crug. and yet
he ooutlDualiy talks peace.
At present there la a popular sentiment
In for of otuional prohibition; in fact,
tha progressive party has Inserted In its
Platform and adopted a piank endorsing
national prohibition. The writer advo
cated tl u te be the only solution ef the
liquor traffic more than a quarter of s
century ago, Pryan opposed It then; Is
In favor of It now, but aays "The time
Is not ripe." and thr.t It should not he an
isuo In thi campnlKn of Mr. Hryan
Is an adocate of Christianity and ssys
further, "the prohibition side of the ques
tion is the moral side." In view of this
fact, how can a conscientious Chrls'lrn
conscientiously advocate the puttln i ff
the bcKtrinlt.? of a fight afrainet a known
evil? Bryan obviously area failure for
the cause of national prohibition In llilii
and would wait fearful lest some more
popular Ulea shouM appear upon the
political horizon which he could adopt
and upon which he could ride lito the
pres!uYi..iat chnlr.
