AUSTRIA IfOW GERMAN STATE
CHICAOO. Not. 14.-Piril. A decla
ration of representative Bohemians and
Plova.s demanding Independence for their
or-Pressed countries ha been framed.
The manifest, which la signed by Bo
hemian deputies who mnrd to escspa
from Auatrla and by leader of Bohemian
and Slovak rolonlea In various land, re
cites the wrongs auffered by the Csechs
and Slovaks tinder the sceptre of the
Hapsburg. lP to the outbreak of the
present war the oppressed Slavs aoarht
only a qualified Independence within the
llmlta of Austria-Hungary. But the war
la to them an art of arcreaslrin; Slay
conscripts are driven to death, compelled
to fight for a cause which they abhor.
Persecution rsges In the Bohemian and
Flovak provinces and obedience la en
forced by hanglnr. Austria-Hungary haa
become a vsssal of Germany and haa
loit all Justification to further exliitenoe.
Bohemian and Slovaks, acting to
gether, appeal to the world for sympathy
and look forward to the final victory of
the alllea to realize theJr national a i) I ra

Thl document. It I hoped, will taka
the same place In Bohemian history the
Declaration of Independence oceuplea In
American history.
J. Tvralcky, secretary, and tr. L. 3.
Fisher, president, promulgate the declara
tion, which la In part a follow;
"We shall not discuss the whole sltua
tlon created by the war. We hall only
explain briefly the position of the Bohe
mian people, the Caech, aa they call
themselves.
"Th Bohemian nation having by It
free choice called to th throne a Tnf
of the Hapsburg family entered Into a
union with Hungary and Oerman Austria;
but the dynaaty through gradual central
ization and germanlzatifpn aimed at the
construction of a single state with ar
bitrary government, thu violating It
agreement to maintain the Internal and
exteral Independence of the Bohemian
state. 'The Bohemian people exhausted
by th European and Hapsburg counter
reformation were for a long Mm unable
to withstand th oppression, until th
great revival cam at th end of the
eighteenth century, culminating In th
revolution of IStS. Th revolution was
suppressed, rights conceded to the peo
ple of Austria, and principally to the
Bohemian, wer taken back and abso
lutism reigned once more, until the dis
astrous war of 185 compelled the grant
ing of an Imperfect constitutional re
gime. Magyar obtained from Vienna,
what they demanded, but all that the
Bohemian got wer solemn promises
never fulfilled. The Bohemian peopl
through their representative preserved
for a long time th attitude of passive
opposition, later entered the new parlia
ment, but both In the central parliament
and In tha diet demanded their histor
ical right and a reconstltutlon of th
monarchy on a federalists bajl as
against tha German-Magyar dualism, All
attempt to reach an agreement With
tha emplr wer frustrated by tha rapac
ity - and intolerance of Germans and
Magyar.
. "Tha present war haa Intensified tha
antagonism between th people of Bo
hemia and th Austro-Hungartan em
pire. War waa declared without th ap
proval of parliament; every other country
participating In th war haa laid th
momentous decision before th represent
ative o fttae nation, but the Vienna gov
ernment waa afraid to listen to the vA?
of th Austrian peoples, because tha ma
jority would have been against th war.
Tha ' Bohemian representative wgVI
hv protested most vigorously; therefor
th government did not consult a alngte
Bohemian deputy or leader before taking
tbe momentous atep.
'Th recent history of tha Bohemian
people ahowa plainly tha great stress laid
by the Bohemians upon th Bier Iddh.
And so In this war, which found tha
Czech totally unprepared., Just aa It Td

"I was one of about a doxen republi
can members of the house In th year
who aided a majority of the lumber
of the party, then In control, to pass the
Initiative and referendum. Without our
Id the bill could not have been passed.
We did this so that tho liquor question
with all Its pernicious connection might
b removed from politics. Through that

of the people to decide and candidates

"I cherish with pride the fact that the
party with which I have always been af
filiated has done more than Its share In
Inaugurating the good reform legislation
which now graces the statute books of
our state. At this time there Is not so
much need for radical reforms. If any
thing. It Is time that a little more at
tention be given to constructive legisla
tion, which will aid In the development
and promotion of the state's Industries
and enterprises.
"In the past yesrs legislative attention
and aid have been given to th produc
tion side of farming and live stock hus
bandry. There Is yet noed for develop

"Of' almost equal Importance to agri
culture Is manufacturing. In this regard
Nebraska la far In the rear. Th things
which will develop Nebraska's manufac
turing enterprises along healthy lines
should be Intelligently done.
"Back of all Industry Is labor. Not
only do I think that every thoughtful
protection and encouragement should be
thrown about the Industrial worker, but
education should be directed to enhance
his efficiency."

Into the "hall of bathing." Courtier
carrying lighted torches led th prooea

advance over silent corridors, th bush
of th spectator all contributed to a
scene that was profoundly Impressive.
The emperor retired and took a bath
of purification, wearing a bathing vest
ment of hemp. He waa then garbed In
a ceremonial costume of pur whit silk
without figure or design. Again puri
fying his hands, he took a baton from a
chamberlain, and gave the signal for th
procession to the Tukl shrine, to which
the heavenly deities had been previously
summoned. .
Meantime th Japanese dignitaries who
had assembled in the waiting hall were
escorted to a pavilion built outside th
main rat to th south of th shrine.
A they moved forward, strains of musto

and sake cups of unglased earthen ware,
Then the chief ritualist preceded to
th Tuki ahrln and offered a Shtnt
prayer befor the altar, announcing to
th spirits of th deltlea of heaven that
the emperor would personally offer the
sacred food. The emperor, dressed In
bhlnto ceremonial costume, cam Into
th Tukl shrine from th bathing hall
through a corridor covered with pure
cotton cloth and reed matting. Th
mattings were spread by th ritualist
befor th emperor as h proceeded on
his way and rolled and removed by other
ritualists after h had trod upon them.
Thu bo member of th retinue waa per
mitted to touch them with his feet. At
th head of th Imperial prooeastoa
walked th grand, master of ceremonies
and th minister of the household, and
directly In front ef th emperor a cham

and Jewel. .

Close behind his majesty -walked a
chamberlain who htld a hug umbrella
of curious and ancient shape over the
head of the emperor. Another rbamber

th procession, which Included the mem
ber of th cabinet In court cwrtume,
reached the veranda of the ahrine the
chamberlain entrusted with the sword
and Jewels mounted the step and placed
the sacred objects on a table.
The emperor then ascended the veranda,
and entering the hail, took his seat on a
throne provided In the room outside the
inner shrine. The lord rhamhr-rlaln and

offerings which had been prepared In the
cooking hall. The maids were attired In
beautiful ceremonial court robes of bright
and varied colors and each carried a
wicker basket containing food offerings
and utensils. Five eight-legged tables
bearing sake-cups, sacred sake wine, aoup,
boiled rice and all the food to be tasted
by the emperor were then brought In
by ritualists. These preparations com
pleted, a ritualist, beat wooden clappers
to announce the commencement of the
holy ceremony of the emperor offering

deities. No other person was permitted
to enter the proclnct of this "holy of
holies." Later the emperor worshlDed
before the altar, bowing In profound rev
erence and then read a prayer. Then
he himself partook of the sacred feast.
What else took place In the forblddon
precinct is not exactly known. Eventually
tho sacred offerings were taken away
by a mald-of-honor and escorted back
to the cooking hall by the ritualists and
malds-of-honor In procession as before.
The emperor, again washing his hands
with the help of a mald-of-honor, retired
from the ahrine and left the hall, .fol
lowed by the retinue. The ceremony be
gan at dusk and lasted until just before
midnight
A.bout one hour after the ceremony at
th Tukl shrln a similar ceremony was
performed at the Sukl shrine when the
emperor personally offered the sacred
rice, sake win and other food offerings
befora th spirits of th daltiea of earth.
Th sacred food which cam from the
Sukl district was prepared and cooked
at a separate cooking hall erected in the
