rr. THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1918 i Nebraska COMMENT WHEN BRYAN NEGLECTS. TO NAME WILSON v ' Commoner in Lincoln Address Pays More Attention to Roast of Democratic Senate in Nebraska. , (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln,. Jlarch 20. (Special.) There' is considerable comment in Lincoln today, following the address . of V. J. Bryan'at the atiditorium last night, because the commoner did not once mention the name of the presi dent of the' United States in his speech. The nearest he came to it was when he mentioned that a demo cratic house and a democratic senate had passed the national prohibition act and that a democratic president had signed it. It is noticeable that th local demo cratic paper leads in the comment and in mentioning the matter calls atten tion to a similar meeting two years ago. where Mr. Bryan criticized the president for adopting a policy of pre paredness and for not doing more than 'he had done to bring about peace in Europe. It is also noticeable that the same paper in its issue today calls attention to that part of his speech covering the calling of the special session of the lcgis!aure and called the words used by Mr. Bryan as a "studied affront id Governor Neville." " When Governor Neville was asked todav if he had anything to say re garding Mr. Bryan's reference to the matter, he said there was nothing to Say. Mr. Bryan appeared so happy over the fact that the democratic party was for oice on the side of prohibition that he gave alt the credit for prohi bition legislation to the democrats and gave republicans no thanks for their part in the enactment of the laws along thatJine passed by congress. .That he was very much worried that the conversion of is party was not a permanent thing was evidenced by the way he lambasted the Ne braska senate and threatened the members with being placed in the kaiser class if they didn't come across at the coming special session with a hip-hurrah for a ratification of the national prohibition act of congress Elmer Thomas Appoints Legislative Committee (From a Staff Correspondent.) v ' Lincoln."

Germany should not Tndulge in de lusions that world peace has been ac complished yet, Count von Hertling, the imperial chancellor, declared in, concluding his speech in the Reich stag today on the peace treaty, with Russia. He added? "There is not the slighest inclina tion yet perceptible among the en tente states to terminate this terrible war. We, however, shall not lose faith. We are prepared and' every thing is ready. Further heavy sacri fices may come, but I am confident in dur just cause, our incomparable army, its heroic leaders and the steads fast nation. Responsibility for fur ther bloodshed will fall on the heads of those desiring its continuance." Worked for Revolution. Baron von Dem Bussche-Hadden-hausen, under-secretary for foreign affairs, explained that Germany; had adopted a -sharper and firmer method in the second phase of the Russian negotiations, because it realized that Trotzky, the bolshevik foreign minis ter, desired not peace, but to instigate Germany to rebellion and .counted on a revolution in Germany and Austro Hungary to help him veil thelact of Russian defeat. "Our negotiators," the under-secret tary said, "gained the impression that the Russians expected far more se vere terms' after they had forced us to a fresh appeal to arms and their protest that they were forced to ac cept our terms without sufficient time for negotiations was a mere attempt to save their own faces. Everything had been discussed fully in December and the only new demand after the ultimatum was regarding Kars, Ar dahan and Batoum." , The peace treaty provides that these districts in the Caucasus shall be ceded to Turkey."
