M. podvoisky urged com pulsory training, and commercial as wI as military mobilization. The Polshevik Travda says that resulting for the Red Guards is un successful, so far, because of the op portion of the bourgeoise, who "must bea removed by merciless terror if netessary."

Not in all our history has any po litical party when in opposition shown as fine, as whole-hearted and as com pletely disinterested patriotism as haa been shown by the republican party, especially by its representatives in the, senate and congress of the United States during the year and two months now closing. Their ' devotion has been to the interests . of America, , They have sought to serve their party only by making It servo America; and they have realized that by serv ins; America they coutd best serve the free na'tjart of mankind.'

In the past too often capitalists In the name of effi ciency have speeded up the work of thf laborers to the top notch and thfmselvea absorbed -almost all the prints.

We are pledged to the hi! as a na ' tiofi to put this war through without flinching until wo win tho peace of overwhelming victory. We owe this to'.our own honor and to our future well-being. We owe it to the liberty losing peoples Of mankind. V aro pledged to secure for each well-behaved nation the right to control its own destinies and to live undomtnated and unharmed by others so long as it does not harm others. This is the people's war. It is not the president's war. It is not congress' 'war. It is tho war of the people of the United States for tho honor ana wet fare of America and of mankind. We are in this war because of spe cia) and intolerable grievance against f,(rfflin: because in addition to many ' other misdeeds she for two years fol lowed a course of .deliberate muroer of1 our unarmed . and.; unoffending 'citizens, men, women and children: because her continuous and ; con- ' temcituoua maltreatment of our coun try rendered it imperative lor us to go to? war in order to ensure our future any foreign nation. Our first duty is ' to beat tlown Germany In order to sajre ourselves and our belongings, in ortler to save our women and our children and our homes. We fight for th future of our own dear land, but wf are also in the war . because in common with all civilized mankind wf have-been outraged by Germany's callous and cynical brutalities against well-behaved weaker nations. This is a aV on behalf of treaties as xSaiiist scraps of paper; for the freedom of the sea against world enslavement (for Germany has been the real foe of free dom of the seas); it is a war on behalf of small well-behaved nations against the domineering and infinitely cruel arrogance of the brutal and scientific German militarism; a war for helpless women and children against murder ers; a war for civilization against bar barism, honor against infamy, right against, wrong; a war against the powers of darkness, or death and of hell. As for pur own special griev ance it is far more serious than any grievance for which ever before we had to fight a foreign foe. Germany has wronged us far more seriously than Great" Britain wronged us during the years' that led up to our Declara tion of Independence. No man can advocate submission to Germany now without proving false to the spirit of the men of 1776. We must work in the spirit of Washington and Lincoln, and this we can only do if we apply that spirit to the issues of the present day. It is in oeace as it is in war. Washing' tons Continentals, with their flint lock muskets and short-range can non, w6uld have been helpless before the men in blue and gray, who bore the weapons of the civil war, and the weapons that were formidable in the day of Grant and Lee would now count for no more than stone-headed axes against the tremendous machin ery of modern warfare. But the spirit that now conquers in war is the same as it was in 1776 and in 1865. Weapons change, but the soul of the man who is to Handle the weapon does not change.

London, March 28 The personal memorandum of Prince Lichnowsky, revealing the inner workings of Ger-i man diplomacy, which has caused much feeling in Germany against (lit former ambassador to Great Britain, leaked out last summer through the German general staff after the fall of Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg. This statement is made by the so cialist Vorwaerts of Berlin, and is published by the Times, which also reprints from the Vorwaerts the most important points of the memoran dum. 4 In an editorial on the disclosures of the prince the Times says: "By a coincidence as strange as it is opportune passages of the memor andum in which the former German ambassador fixes the guilt for the war upon his own government reach us as the fiercest and bloodiest conflict of the long struggle is at its height. Moment of Horror. "At the moment when mankind is filled with horror and anguish at the carnage on the great battlefield, all eyes will turn to his account of the policy which brought this dread visi tation upon the world. "He has not a shadow of a doubt about the responsibility for the war. VVjthout hesitation he fastens it up on Germany. The German militar ists were ipexorjble. They would not surfer Count Berchtold to give way. When ho flinched from plunging Europe into war they forced his hand. "Tney delivered an jiltimatum to Russia and the next day declared war upon her, although the Russian emperor had pledged his word that while the negotiations continued not a man should march. Destroys Chance of Peace. "We deliberately destroyed the possibility of a peaceful settlement,' is the former ambassador's considered judgment. 'He cannot feel surprised that 'the whole civilized world out side Germany attributes to us sole guilt for the world war.' The whole story which he records corroborates this judgment and cannot be rec6n- ciled with any other. "The first hint of coming trou ble which reached him seems to have been Von Bethmann-Hollweg's re fusal to share his optimism when he visited Wilhelmstrasse early- in July, 1914. The chancellor and the under secretary for foreign affairs com plained of Russian armament and the latter declared that Russia was every where m Germany s way. "At the same time ho learned that Von Tchirsky, the German ambassa dor at Vienna, had been rebuked be cause he had counseled moderation towards Serbia. But these were mere straws showing the direction of the current." , Senator Gallinger is 81. Washington, March 28.

I shall be very glad, however, if your honorable body so desires, to submit for its information a copy of the communications in my possession with reference to this ques tion, or to srbmit the original copies for the information of individuals or committees of the house who would care to examine them in my office." Letter From Lansing. The letter which Governor Neville received from Mr. Lansing was simp ly a notice that the amendment had passed the national congress and that he should bring it to the attention of the legislature. The letter was written January. 1, 1918, and read: "I have the honor to enclose a certified copy of a resolution of con gress with a request that you cause the same to be submitted to the legis lature of your state for action as may be had." There was no mention of a special session or that it be incorporated in a call. At the time it was written the governor had not figured on call ing a special, session. The senate this morning listened to the reading of a resolution by Henry of Colfax, which stated that the senate would consider no legisla tion except that in the call of the gov ernor. This went over under the call and will come up later. Houses Far Apart. It is an indication that the two bodies are just about as far apart on the wet and dry issue at this session as they were before and is evidence that the governor knew .what he was about when he feared to place the matter in the special call for fear that there would not be harmony and the real legislation for which the call was made would suffer thereby. The senate resolution reads: , "Whereas, The legislature of Ne braska is now in extraordinary ses sion, convened by the governor through the exercise of his constitu tional powers and limited in its scope of action by the constitutional re strictions which give the only legal force and effect to the acts of this extraordinary session, to-wit: "The governor may, on extra- THE STORE OF THE TOWN BROWNING KING & CO.

Mr. Bryan says that as soon as 36 states have ratified the amendment, then within 12 months the whole country will have to go dry, and by Nebraska holding back it may mean that country will not be able to take water only, as soon as it otherwise would.
