War Inevitable Now,
Asserts Hitchcock,
Discussing Message
Washington, April 3. Some of the
comment of senators on the presi
dent's address follow:
Senator Hitchcock, democrat, Ne
braska: "The president's address pre
sents a masterly review of recent
events which have combined to force
war upon the United States. I have
been opposed to war and have done
what I could to avert it Even within
a few days I have sought to dissuade
the president from recommending it
All has been in vain. His address con
tains revelations of facts which he has
heretofore kept from the public, but
which he was forced to consider in
reluctancy, reaching his conclusion
that the German government by its
acts has forced a state of war on us.
War is now inevitable and-the only
question is whether the country will
go into it strong and united, or di
vided and crippled. Under these cir
cumstances I must stand for strength
and unity."

of the motorman, who dropped his
fender.
She was taken to St Joseph's hos
pital, where it was found she had a
fracture of the right leg and body
bruises. She was attended by Dr.
Shook.

of an infection of his eyes.

PRAIRIE PARKERS
MOVEFOR RECALL
Formulate Plans That Will
Bring About Action Against
Commissioner Kngel.
WASH WORDS SPOKEN
Tom Dennison, Rev. Charles W.
Savidge, former Police Judge Charles
Foster, and Robert Cowell, who re
cently resigned from the Board of
Education, were mentioned as possible
candidates for police commissioner of
Omaha at last night's meeting of
Prairie Park folks in the Prairie
Park club house. Incidentally, Police
Commissioner Kugel was the recip
ient of severe censure for his alleged
incompetency.
On the motion of George Timber
lake, 2723 Meredith avenue, the per
sons present adopted the following
resolution:
"Resolved, That Commissioner
Kugel, having been derelict in the per
formance of his duty, particularly in
the matter of law and health enforce
ment, that a committee of five be ap
pointed to formulate such plans and to
take such steps as may be necessary
for his recall."
Wants An Outsider.
Karl R. Ogden, 2013 Fowler avenue,
precipitated a warm discussion, when
he declared, "There's not a man in
Omaha big enough for the job of po
lice commissioner." He suggested
that a man from some other city be
drafted for the duties of the office. It
was this suggestion which brought
about the mention of the names of the
R . Mr. Savidge and Messrs. Foster,
Cowell and Dennison, as men "big
enough."
R. J. Sutton of the West Leaven
worth Improvement club, predicted
that when Prairie Park people started
tj circulate the recall petition against
Mr. Kugel, Omaha would be visited
with one t of the greatest "crime
waves" in its history.
Among others who adversely criti
cised the administration of Commis
sioner Kugel were Thomas Hollister,
H. E. Cochrane and J. H. Sinclair.
Suspicion was directed all evening
upon 'ourteen men who sat in the
first two rows. Somebody tipped C.
F. McLane, 2012 Fowler avenue, that
they were henchmer of the sworn
enemy and had been sent there to
"pack" the meeting and prevent a vote
against Mr. Kugel. Hence it was with
a sense of the parliamentary tactician
that Chairman McLane announced,
just previous to the vote in favor of
circulating a recall petition for the po
lice commissioner, that "only those
who have attended previous meetings
are empowered to vote on this reso
lution.'. The suspected fourteen rose from
their seats and filed out of the hall.
Boy Injured When Chum
Runs Into Him With Bike
Sam Anderson, 15 years c'd, 522
Cedar rtreet, was trying out his new
bicycle and was racing downtown
with William Christensen, 410 Center
street, Monday afternoon. At
Eleventh and Mason streets, Christen
sen ran over a brick and in so doing
turned his bicycle directly into his
chum. The Anderson lad was knock
ed from his wheel and received bad
body bruises.
Sixteen-Year-01d
Boy Runs Away to
Omaha to Join Navy
Harold Bennett, ton of a wealthy
business man in Clarinda, a star ath
lete and a junior in high school, saw
all his hopes blasted when he was
arrested at the depot Monday evening
upon request of his father who said
that he ran away ftom home to join
the navy. Attired in a neat fitting
tailored suit in the matron's ward at
the city jail, he told the following
about himself:
"I wanted to join the navy just as
soon as I heard there was a possibility
of war. Dad strenuous! objected.
He said that I could serve just as well
by staying home and spending my
allowance in Clarinda."
The lad said he wanted to become a
wireless operator. He is only 16
years old.
Will Buy New Flag Poles
For Five Omaha Schools
A patriotic suggestion was heard at
the Board of Education meeting yes
terday evening when an appropriation
of $300 was allowed for sixty-foot
flagpoles at Columbian, New Ban
croft, Franklin, South Central and
West Side schools.
Laura B. Syfert and Blanche D.
Robinson on behalf of the civil serv
ice reform and educational commit
tee of the Omaha Woman's club,
asked the board to provide students
of the high school with laboratory
training in chemistry, to prepare them
for public service on account of the
present demand for efficiency in army
and navy.
The building and grounds commit
tee was given power to act in the mat
ter of advertising for bids and letting
a contract for erection of an addition
to Train school.

Dr. Caldwell' t Syrup Pepsin
Fffeetive at a Remedy
for Constipation
Among older people the various or
gans of the body have a tendency to
slow up and weaken and this is usu
ally first manifest in a pronounced in
activity of the bowels.
Good health is dependent on regu
larity in this important function;
whenever there is the slightest indi
cation of constipation a mild laxative
should be taken to relieve the con
gestion and dispose of the accumu
lated waste. Cathartics or purgatives
should not be employed, however;
these' are too violent in action and
their effect is only temporary.
A mild laxative such at the combi
nation of timple laxative herbs with
pepsin, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, is the ideal remedy, ft is
gentle in its action, bringing relief
in an easy, natural manner, without
griping or other pain or discomfort;
is pleasant to the taste and can be ob
tained in any drug store.
Mr. Robert LeForgee, 918 Kirk
wood Boulevard, Davenport, Iowa,
says he has always had a bottle of
ur. caldwell s Syrup Pepsin in the
house for the past eighteen years and

BURLINGTON HIT
BYARMKOMPLAINT
Colonel Bingham Says Road
Refuses to Haul Camp Equip
ment as Baggage.
ON FIRST CLASS TICKET
Colonel C. S. Bingham, depot
quartermaster for this department,
has filed a complaint at Washington
with the war committee on transpor
tation, against the action of the Bur
lington road in refusing to haul as
baggage the camp equipment and
paraphernalia which the soldiers must
take with them when ordered out.
Company L, Fourth infantry, com
posed of sixty-five men, was ordered
from Kearney to guard the Burlington
bridge at Ashland. Colonel Bingham
ordered the full fare tickets which
under ordinary circumstances would
entitle the holder to take with him 150
pounds of baggage. When the Bur
lington refused to take the camp
equipage as baggage Colonel Bing
ham was forced to order this carried
as express, for which an extra charge
was made.
Company M, Fourth infantry, sta
tioned at York, was ordered to Grand
Island to guard the Burlington bridge
at that point and Colonel Bingham
has reported to Washington that the
Burlington made the same ruling in
that case.
Company H, Fourth infantry, was
ordered from Madison to guard the
Union Pacific bridge at Columbus and
Colonel Bingham informed Washing
ton that General Passenger Agent
Basinger said that his road would
haul the camp equipage as baggage,
as first class ticket holders are en
titled to 150 pounds of baggage.
