TWEHTY-TWO GET DIPLOMAS
Twenty-two graduates, the largest
number in the history of the Univer
sity of Omaha, received degrees at the
seventh annual commencement exer
cises iieid in John Jacobs Memorial
halt last . evening. The graduation
marked a new epoch In the history of
the university, as it was the first time
that students of the 'aw department
have held joint exercises with the col
lege of liberal arts and sciences.
Dr., Irving S. Cutter, dean of the
college of medicine of the University
of Nebraska, was the commencement
apeiker. In his talk of the "Achieve
ments of Biological Science," he out
lined the progress made in medicine
for for the last two centuries.
He traced step by step the great
discoveries and their benefits to man.
He eulogized the work of such scien
tists as Pasteur, Morton, Erlich, Hun
ter, and Lister. Comparing these sci
entists to the graduates, he said that
the proof of their ability was not in
what they knew, but in how they
spread it among the people. Just as
these men spread their learning and
helped mankind, he urged the students
to spread their knowledge and help
the less fortunate.
"The people of this age should re
spect scientific men," he said. "In the
past our greatest discoverers were
scoi.. at because their ideas were
aomewe t in advance of the theories
of their time. The debt we owe these
people can never be paid. Some of
mem soent their entire time and even
$&i gave tip their lives to prove that they

;ies on the problem now confronting
von.
Dr. D. E. Jenkins, president of the
university, presided at the exercises.
In a brief talk he gave a resume of
ths work accomplished this season.
"At no time in the history of the uni
versity has the outlook been as bright
as at nreaenL" he said. "We have ac-
comnlished more this year tnan ever
before, and I look forward to the time
in the near tuture when our present
campus will be adorned with a large
new building. -Dr.
Tenkins told of several contrlbu
tions to the building fund, and said
that the required amount ot $u,UUU
for the erection of a new building was
practically raised, but. that the board
had decided to increase the amount to
$75,000 in order that a more substan
tial structure could be built The let
ter of George A. Joslyn offering
25.000 on condition that a like sum
be raised, was also read by Dr. Jen
kins. -
Lauds Work of President
Archie Carpenter, chairman of the
board of trustees, commended the
wOik of President Jenkins, and in a
short talk, called "A Vision," he told
of Suture prospects in store for the
university. "I look forward to , the
time, he said, when the University of
Omaha will be one of the most valued
assets in the city."
Degrees were hsnded out by Dr.
Jenkins as the students marched
across the stage. Those receiving de

Text of Diplomatic
Correspondence of
Moose and the G.O.P.
Chicago, June 9. The letter written
by Secretary O. K. Davis of the pro
gressive convention to Chairman
Warren G. Harding of the republican
convention submitting the pesce con
ference resolution was as follows:
"By direction of the progressive na
tional convention I transmit for the
consideration of the republican na
tional convention copy of a resolution
duly adopted by the progressive na
tional convention at its afternoon ses
sion June 8, 1916." ' -The
resolution reads: ,;
"In the spirit of the statement at
the meeting of its nstional commit
tee held on January 11 last past, the
national convention of the progres
sive party invites and requests the
national convention of the republican
party to appoint a committee of con-

BY EDGAR C. SNYDER
Chicago, June 9. Special Tele
gram.) So far as the republican na
tional convention is concerned, the
stage is set for a presidential nomina
tion by 12 o'clock tomorrow night.
The platform has been adopted; the
rules of 1908 with modif: i tions to
suit changes endorsed, the several
contests happily settled; the tem
porary organization made permanent
and it is now up to the delegates to
the convention to get down to the
business that called them to this rain
bedraggled, sewer-stopped, mud
coagulated metropolis of a mighty
west, namely to nominate a ticket that
will be triumphantly elected on Nov
ember 7.
Of the nlatform much will be writ
ten in oraise or criticism in the com
ing months. Its brevity will attract or
reoel. Its ringing declaration as to
labor, its recognition of equal sur
frage, but passing its enactment to
the several states, will be praised or
condemned dependent upon just how
much of a suffragist one is. Its Amer
icanism is pronounced, its economic
features reflective of the best tradi
tions of a great party.
Jansen Likes It.
" Peter Jansen of Beatrice, one of the
Strong, virile men of a really very
great convention, a wheel horse in re
publican ranks for many years, and
the Nebraska member of the commit
tee on resolutipns, said of the plat
form: 1
"It is one that any republican can
stand upon. It is that precise and
tense. Enough material was presented
to the committee on resolutions to
fill an American encyclopedia on poli
tics. It is American to the core and
the platform ought to be acceptable to
labor and to capital alike. It ought
to be acceptable to stalwarts and pro
gressives alike."
In this connection It may not be out
of place to say that the resolutions
committee had a long and sometimes
heated debateover a proposed section
relating to compulsory military edu
cation in the co nmon schools. Peter
Jansen was a pronounced opponent ot
the proposition, which was finally de
feated by a vote of 23 to 19.
Then, too, the committee had a
spirited fight over the suffrage plank.
several substitutes Being onerea 10
the plank as originally prepared Bui
after "full and free discussion." il
was finally decided to accept the short
form on suffrage as it now appears.
E. M. Pollard of Nebraska and a
delegate from the First distict. voiced
his approbation of the platform by
saying. "I am glad tbe resolutions
committee included suffrage in the
platform. This is one of the best
evidences of the tendencies of the re
publican party and shows that the
party1 of Lincoln, Grant and McKin
ley is abreast of the time. The plat
form as a whole is most inspiring,
the best in my time. It is broad
enough for every American to stand
on." But Pollard is nothe only mem
ber of the Nebraska delegation to get
"chesty" over the platform, O. R,
Thompson of Wisner being another
booster for the skillful .partisanship
shown in its construction.
Howard Baldrige was compelled to
retire to his hotel today on account
of a mild attack of indigestion.

Chairman Harding replied:
"Upon receipt of your communica
tion of today conveying the resolu
tion passed by the progressive nation
al convention, I read the same to the
national convention in session assem
bled this afternoon and beg to reply
that the convention directed me to ap

SIX THOUSAND DIE IN
WEEK OF CANADIAN BAND
Ottawa, June 9. Upwards of 6,000
Canadians have fallen within a week
in the desperate fighting in and
around Sanctuary Woods, according
to a statement made by Major Gen
eral Samuel Hughes, minister of mil
itia, in presenting colors to a Cana
dian regiment on Parliament hill to
day. The great majority, wounded." he
said, "already are clamoring to get
back into the fray, but many of the
valiant lads have gone down never to
rise again. We deeply mourn their
loss, but that loss affords an inspira
tion for tens of thousands more to
take their place."
