.Withdraws As Republican Can
v didate for Governor and to
Devote Entire Attention
To War.
"The order from the Navy depart
ment last week, calling me into serv
. ice, was a complete surprise as 1 had
given up til hope of being allowed to
participate tit the war, it being more
than a year since I had tendered my
services and was commissioned as
lieutenant in the naval fleet reserve,"
paid Lt. R. B. Howell.
"Upon receiving my orders I at
once put aside all thought of continu
ing my campaign,1 realizing that the
time allowed m before reporting for
duty was all too short for closing up
my personal affairs and arranging for
the transfer to other hands of the
public business under my charge.
"Many of rn?friends have Impor
tuned me to defer making any further
announcement -respecting my candi
idacy for. governor until after the re
publican state convention so as to
fiiye. them an opportunity to care
nilv aurvev the situation. However.
ias I have definitely determined not to
- be a candidate, I feel that in justice
; to them, and' to republicans in gen
eral throughout the state, that tne

; idoubt. . ' . '
"While it ti frue that there is no
leeal obstacle to my candidacy, and
that the Navy deoartment would un
doubtedly grant a leave of absence
to a reserve officer elected to perform
such imoortant duties as fall to the
governor of a state, yet I am unwill
ing, to divide my attention in this
emergency, or place upon friends the
burden of a campaign in which I
tvouW be unable to participate.
"I.am not unmindful of the gener
ous offers of support that have been
tendered me in the canvass that has
so unexpectedly come to a close and
I wish to express my "sincere thanks
to the friends who have done so much
for me, and who are so willing to go
further in their efforts to forward my
cause. To all of them I can only say
that the great task before us is to win
this" war and that there is no service,
of honor, greater than that which s
implied by the Navy department's ex
pression, 'Your services are needed.

first indication of this was seen Sat

rapidly that the Franco-AjWton
troops entirely lost contact with him.
In the battle of the woods,' the stif

In the rear giiard fighting, which

Refusing Information
Geneva, July 28. "Ask Persh

some of the answers given by
American prisoners to German offi
cers who question them on naval
and military matters.
The German officers are furious
at the American prisoners for their
refusal to divulge any information
whatever and the coldly sarcastic
manner in which the men almost
invariably reply to those seeking
information. ,
Maximilian Harden
Nails Untruths Told
By Prussian Junkers
Amsterdam, July 28. Maximilian
Harden devotes practically the whole
of today's Die Zukunft to proving
that Chancellor von Hertling's charge
against the allies that they want to
annihilate Germany is untrue. Har
den quotes President Wilson's
Mount Vernon speech and A. G. Bal
four's last House of Commons
speech to show how bitter the en
tente nations are against militarism,
but that they are ready to give the
German people a fair chance.
He compares these speeches with
those recently delivered either by the
German chancellor or various junkers
in the Prussian upper house, where
the demand for unlimited annexa
tions is continually heard, and con
cludes by saying:
"Germany must begin to see clearly
on which side is the will to annexa
tions. Germany must begin to fight
this power in her midst a power
with which Germany herself long ago
became disgusted."
Closer Union With
Germany Aim of New
Premier of Austria
Amsterdam, July 28. Baron von
Hussareck, the new . Austro-Hungar-ian
premier, in unfolding his policy in
the lower house of parliament, has
said, according to advices from Vi
enna: "In firm union with Germany, with
which we are united in unshakable
friendshio and loyalty, .and with
which we are about to bo more closely
united, it is now imperative to en
force a successful end to this terrible
struggle. The Austrian government
will contribute all in its power to the
attainment of this ardently desired
end.
"For the attainment of this aim the
outward manifestation of power alone
does not suffice. There must also be
a develoDment of internal strength
An absolute condition, therefore, is
constitutional co-operation with par
liament. to which the government will
scrupulously adhere.
Labor Bodies Protest

New York, July 28. Protest
against the death sentence imposed

Chicago, July 28. Thousands ; xf
union workers paraded through the

today in protest against the sentence
of 1 nomas J. Mooney who has been
condemned to death as the ban rrant-

Railroad Heads Testing
Automatic Stop Devices
Washington, July 28. Spurred by
recent wrecks near Chicago and
Nashville, two of the worst in rail
road history, with a loss of about 150

today that experiments are under way
on short stretches of tracks to de

U-BOAT RAIDS ON
COAST SHOW NEED
OF WATERWAYS
Departments of Washington
Awakened to Importance of
This Proposition by Last
Week's Events.
By EDGAR C. SNYDER.
Washington Bureau of Omaha Bee.
Departments in -Washington have
been given a bump or two during the
last few days that have emphasized
the importance of agitation for inland
waterways along the Atlantic coast.
Western members of congress who
have failed to appreciate the advan
tages of inland waterway transporta
tion and have been inclined to knock
the eastern propositions are beginning
to sit up ana take notice.
When the German U-boats hr.st
made their appearance outside the
coast line of the United States and
began to shoot up American ships,
whose passengers and crews subse
quently pur in an auoearance at New
Jersey and Virginia ports, the public
began to realize that there was some
thing to the insistent ' demands of
waterway men for connecting canals
along the Atlantic Coast.
1 System of Inland Canals.
To connect up the Chesapeake and
Delaware bays, a mere matter of the
enlargement of an existing 13-mile
canal would put navy yards at Phila
delphia and Norfolk in direct inland
waterway communication or a cut
through from the Delaware river to
New York, providing a modern water
way in place of the existing Delaware
and Raritan canal would mean that
practically all of the Atlantic coast
navy yards would be thrown into
communication without being com
pelled to go outside in times of stress
or war.
When the San Diego, an American
cruiser, 'went down within gunshot
of the port of New York it created a
stir along the Atlantic coast which has
been re-echoing in the corridors of
the Navy department ever since.
The question naturally arose,
"What are we to expect for com
merce if the navy is unable to pro
tect itself outside? We could go on
with our inside business if the inland
waterways were connected uo whether
the navy was patrolling outside or
not." So much for the San Diego in
cident.
The very next day a tow of coal
barges was shot up by a submarine in
sight of the cottagers on Cape Cod
and the situation was further ag
gravated.
Railroad Managers in the Way.
Inland waterways men have been
contending in season and out that he
one business that could be carried
safely inland was the coal business.
They have always found obstacles in
the railroad managers, who have been
loath to yield up any part of the New
Endand coal carrvinsr trade. The
dear people of New England have
generally submitted, even though the
freight charges for fuel were twice as
much as the price of the coal at the
mine. .
The barges that went -down on
Sunday were carrying Pennsylvania
coal from a point in northern New
Jersey where it had been dumped on
barges in New York by the railroads
and were obliged to go outside1, at
the risk of bad weather or subma
rines because of the heavy coal
charges on the Cape Cod canal, a pri
vately-owned corporation.
Waterways men are asking the
government how long they propose
to sacrifice life and property in un
necessary hazard when the expendit
ure of ten millions will provide ample
means of commerce, free of tolls,
stress of weather or danger of sub
marines?
Pioneers for Inland Waterways.
Two men in congress, diametrically
opposite in politics, but together on
the question of developing the inland
waters of the country, are today more
appreciated than ever in the fights
they have waged in committee and
on the floor for a comprehensive
policy of waterway development, and
these men are Representatives J.
Hampton Moore of Pennsylvania and
John H. Small of North Carolina.
Moore, who is president ot the
Atlantic Deep Waterways associa
tion, and has made the association
what itis, has been an indefatigable
worker in behalf of a system of in
land canals from New England to
Florida ever since he came to con
gress several years ago. He has
traversed the Atlantic coast from
Portland to Key West preaching the
gospel of coastwise inland water
ways and in this evangelization he
has been powerfully aided by Rep
resentative John Small, chairman of
the rivers and harbors committee ot
the house and one of the very able
men on the democratic side of the
chamber.
Both Moore and Small, who have
felt the potent opposition of the rail
roads both in committee and out, yet
have gone on calling the attention
of congress and the country to dis
asters that might happen to our ship
ping in time of war, m event a mod
ern system of inland canals was not
constructed, and they have seen their
fears more than accentuated.
Now that the Cape Cod canal has
been taken over by the railroad ad
ministration and information given
out that it will be deepened to 25 feet
as it was originally, but has been al
lowed to silt up, other connecting
links will follow undoubtedly and out
of the war and shooting up of the
coal barges and the sinking of the
San Diego, substantial good will
come and the dreams of Moore and
Small wilt be realized, it is to be de
voutly hoped.
Ukraine Expells Mulikoff.
Amsterdam, July 28. Paul N. Mil-
ukoff, leader of the constitutional
democrats in Russia, has been ex
pelled from Kiev by the Ukrainian
government, according to the Vor-
waerts of Berlin, on the ground that
his presence there hindered the con
elusion of the peace treaty between
Kussia and the Ukraine.

Omaha Man Injured in
. a i
Auto Wreck at Overton
Overtoil, Neb., July 28. (Special
Telegram.) R. B. Banda, 199 Far
nam street, Omaha, was seriously in
jured when his automobile turned over
two miles east of town. He was en
route to Kimball to look after busi
ness interests when the accident hap
pened. Home Guards to Have Rifles.
Washington, July 28. The order of
the adjutant general prohibiting the
issue "of rifles to home guard organi
zations until the quota for the na
tional guard has been filled was modi
fied today so that the home guard may
be supplied where the rifles are not
actually needed for national guard
units already organized.
To the Voters
of Nebraska
v
I am a candiate for the nomination for governor on
the Democratic ticket at the primary election August 20.
To win the war is the paramount issue, and it is
the duty of every citizen of Nebraska to co-operate with
the commander-in-chief in every way possible to bring
the war to a successful and permanent close.
Everything that will help win the war should be
done. Anything that will interfere with the mobilizing
of the people's strength and resources should be avoided.
I feel it my duty to frankly state my position on
public questions affecting the people's welfare. Ne
braska has over-subscribed its quota in men and money
for all war activities, and I believe it is the duty of the
state arovernment to make and enforce as a war measure
all laws necessary to
profiteer. ,
On the battle field only the ghoul engages, in
plunder. This nation is a great battle field, and profi
teering is plunder.
I assume that the Democratic state convention will
declare for the ratification of the national prohibition
amendment as a war measure to conserve the food
supply.
It is not sufficient for a political party in war time
to declare against the profiteer. A party without rem
edies is not qualified to represent the people, and the
political party with remedies and unwilling to state
them cannot be entrusted with power.
As war measures, to better enable the people to
support war funds and to reduce the cost of living, I
favor a state trade commission with power to investigate
costs and profits, to report to the governor and state
legislature and to work in harmony with the federal
trade commission in protecting the people of the state
against profiteering.
I favor legislation creating a state bonded grain
the war and in the enforcement of all
- ordinate
