SAN FRANCISCO
GIVES JOHNSON
GREAT WELCOME
Senator Makes Two Speeches
Against League of Nations
in Answering Wil
' son.
San Francisco, Oct 1. Senator
Hiram W. Johnson, in two ad
dresses here, took arguments in be
half of the league of nations pre
sented to two San Francisco audi
ences by President Wilson a fort
night ago and sought to disprove
the points in the presidential argu
ments. He spoke at a luncheon and
a mass meeting of citizens here to
night. President Wilson, in behalf of the
peace treaty and league of nations
covenant, and Senator Johnson,
against some parts of the treaty and
the league as planned in the cove
rant, appeared before San Francisco
audiences exactly two weeks apart.
Senator Johnson appeared before
audiences of his own townspeople
and was given fervent welcome. He
was often interrupted in his ad
dresses by applause, particularly as
he attacked the six votes given
England and five of Great Britain's
Colonies or dominions, against one
vote for the United States; when he
declared that the league of nations
will not bring disarmament, but al
ready has led to the administration
seeking to pass an army program
calling for a standing army in this
country of 579,000 men, costing sub
stantially a billion dollars a year,
with conscription in peace time of
youths of 19 years, and when he de
clared that the fight himself and
other senators were waging was to
prevent "British or Asiatic" control
of America's policies.
Speaks to Business Men.
In his first address at a luncheon
to more than 1,600 San Francisco
business men the California senator
made reference to the administration
military program.
"I will tell you a secret about
this," he said, "and that is they will
not get any such army at all."
He declared the award to Japan of
Shatitung with the United States a
party to the deal was the first time
America had ever broken its plighted
word or promise. The promise, he
said, was given China when the
United States and other powers
sought China as an ally that the
. United States would protect its in
terests at the peace conference. He
. declared President Wilson had ad
mitted the "wrong" done China and
that Secretary Lansing had said if
the people of the United States un
derstood the peace treaty they would
not have it. He declared ratifica
tion of the treaty by the United
States would make this country a
party to the wrongs he charged.
"Because you won't commit a bur
glary is no reason why you should
enter into partnership with ;i bur
glar," he said. .
Attacks Utah SpCech.
The senator attacked the presi
dent's address made in Salt Lake
City, in which the president said that
amendment offered in the senate to
Article X of the covenant was a
knife at the heart of the document.
"This amendment seeks to keep
the economic and military power of
America from being given into the
hands of Europe and Asia."
w-"He declared article X took pow
ers of control from congress and
tre American people and gave it to
the league of nations without re
course. Twice during his luncheon ad-
dress Senator Johnson referred to
. friends who sent telegrams to him
which were made public, upholding
the league covenant. In his first
; reference he said:
"I do not care to refer to any of
the telegrams sent to me, but how
little do these men understand me
when they think that I would turn
. back from' my course because any
man or auy set of men demanded
it of me."
Auditors Rise to Feet.
This reference brought his audi
ence to its feet. He had prefaced
, it by saying his entire fight was
; being made to get for the United
States its just deserts. '
. Near the end of his address he
said.
"1 am sorry, more sorry than
I can tell you, that some friends
of mine, who I hope will still be
my friends have seen fit to become
part of a propaganda in partisan
v press -throughout the east and in the
U. S. senate.
"This fight some of us are making
'. in the senate is bigger than any
party. It is an issue of Ameri
v ans."

ciated Press.) Bucharest dispatches

Mob Spirit Here Outgrowth
of Failure of "Reformers" to
Reform, Declares K. C. Star
Newspaper Tells of "Political Mire" in Omaha and
Blames "Municipal Politics, Too Long Neglected
By the Majority of the Otherwise Progressive
Element" Says "Morals Squad" Aroused Public.
Going into detail and explaining
the events leading up to the Omaha
riots, the Kansas City Star of Mon
day relates how the Nebraska me
tropolis is "in political mire" and
draws1 attention to the fact that the
city has a "reform administration
that failed to reform."
The Star in its story declares the
mob spirit of Sunday was the out
growth of bitter feeling engendered
by failure of the police and city au
thorities to cope intelligently with
vice and corruption.
It was written by a staff corre
spondent, who was sent to Oma
ha Sunday when reports of threat
ened trouble were first received in
Kansas City.
Omaha, Neb., Sept. 29. Muni
cipal politics, too long neglected
by the majority of the otherwise
progressive element, begat po
lice corruption, the infection
spreading to court circles and be
yond. This, in brief, is admittedly the
background of the dark picture of
Omaha today. "Jim" Dahlman
served nine years as mayor, six
years of his term being under
commission government. "Jack"
Rider was Dahlman's first super
intendent of police under the
commission form, and the late J.
J. Donohue was chief. Donohue
died while in office. He was suc
ceeded by Henry' Dunn, who re
signed three months before the
1918 spring election. M.s F. Demp
sey, a veteran patrolman, who had
a record of never having been "on
the carpet," was named to succeed
Dunn. Dempsey had worked his
way to the top from patrolman to
captain, and later to the position
of command.
"Reformers Didn't Reform.'
In the election in the spring of
1918, J. Dean Ringer, a lawyer and
avowed reformer, who had gained
considerable local fame as a spe
cial prosecutor in the South Oma
ha vice crusade, was elected as
one of the seven commissioners
on the reform ticket. This ticket
was strongly supported by The
Omaha Daily Bee, the same paper
that, in the last six months, has
lambasted the present adminis
tration which it helped elect by
persistently and , continuously
pointing out incompetency and
specific cases of failure to enforce
laws and making other charges.
The mayor, Ed. P. Smith, also a
lawyer, and his commissioner of
public safety, J. Dean Ringer,
have been especial targets for The
Bee's shafts of criticism.
Ringer undertook to reorganize
the police force, his first move be
ing to displace the chief of police
and appoint Marshal Eberstein,
then the head of the local bureau
of the United States secret serv
ice. A police captain, Henry T.
Haze, who had resigned under fire
before the election, was reinstated
by the reform administration.
Named a Vice Committee.
A committee of citizens, SO in
number, was named to cope with
the vice situation. Later this com
mittee was expanded to 500 mem
bers. Elmer T. Thomas, attorney
for the Anti-Saloon league, was
prominent in this committee. Then
the legislature enacted a law em
powering the governor to estab
lish a state constabulary for the
enforcement of the prohibitory
laws, and the Omaha committee's
work was at an end.
The methods of the present
police force in dealing with vice
and crime intensified the feeling
that found expression Sunday
night by lynching and burning a
negro charged with a crime, mak
ing an attempt upon the life of
the mayor and burning the court
house.
"Morals Squad" Aroused Public.
Ostentatious pretense at law
enforcement on the part of the
police department "morals squad"
called down upon the department
heads the wrath of citizens and
made enemies of former friends.
Apartments, small hotels and even
private residences were invaded
by this so-called morals squad,"
the places searched, and respect- .
able men and women dragged off
to the police station, in many in
stances in their night garments.
And in none of the cases of this
kind, which so aroused public in
dignation, did the arresting offi
cers obtain a conviction. Damage
suits followed, some of which
were settled out of court by city
officers. -
About six weeks' ago a small
hotel was raided, ostensibly under
the prohibitory act. Two patrol
men not in uniform, accompanied
by a special officer who works for
the Union Pacific railroad, enter
ed the place and encountered in
the hallway a young negro boy
employed as a combination watch
man and bellman. The negro, be-

coming frightened, ran. He was
shot dead.
When the facts concerning the
killing of the negro became
known, there was a general out
cry, the people, both white and
black, loudly demanding that the
officers be arrested and prose
cuted for murder. The county at
torney acted. He filed informa
tion charging manslaughter. The
men gave bond, and when popu
lar clamor demanded that they be
removed from the force the city
commissioners voted to retain
them. The vote was four to three
Mayor Smith casting the deciding
ballot.
Women's Assailants Unpunished.
This marked the breaking up of
the so-called "morals squad,"
which has been conspicuously in
active since, although the two
members charged with man
slaughter still are on duty, at least
on the payroll.
The records show that 24 cases
of attacks upon white women by
negroes in the last three months
have resulted in few arrests and
no sentences in keeping with the
gravity of the crimes. One negro
was arrested charged with at
tempted assault. He was tried
before a South Side police judge,
convicted and sentenced to 30 days
in jail. He appealed under a $500
bond, and while the case was
pending was arrested for commit
ting another and similar crime,
and what is said to have been ir
refutable evidence of his guilt
brought a sentence before the
same judge of 60 days in jail.
Lenient With Slayers.
The Nebraska statutes, in de
fining murder, make it first de
gree if committed in pursuit of
another felony. About three weeks
ago three young negroes came out
of a picture show, walked down
the street, and, according to their
confessions at trial, went after
"some easy money." They agreed
they would hold up the first per
son they met. Meeting no one,
they passed the grocery store, en
tered, pointed a pistol at the pro
prietor and demanded that , he
stand and deliver. The man grap
pled with the negro who held the
weapon and was shot in the stom
ach. They rolled onto the side
walk, where the negro, wrench
ing himself free, deliberately shot
his victim twice, killing him. The
trio confessed and the prosecutor
allowed a plea of guilty to' murder
in the second degre. They were
sentenced to 10 years.
The storm of public indignation
over this procedure had not sub
sided when other assaults upon
white women by negroes were
committed, some of them ' in
broad daylight In a more recent
one the negro who was lynched
Sunday night was arrested and
identified by his victim. It looked
as if it would be another case
of. either turning the culprit scot
free or letting him off with a light
sentence. Men who in the past
had been known to stand for law
and order joined in the mutter
ings, which soon grew to a gen
eral hue and cry, crystallizing in
mob spirit rampant.
Wrecked Court House Testimonial.
The formerly beautiful and or
nate court house, the scene of
Sunday night's riot, windows
broken and exterior smoke mark
ed, stands as a grim silent tes
timonial of the procrastination of
Omaha's better element, which too
long left municipal politics to the
politicians, then, seeing the reefs
ahead, elected a reform ticket
which failed to bring about re
form. The two patrolmen charged
with manslaughter have filed libel
suits against The Omaha Daily
Bee and that newspaper is being
villified by friends of the admin
istration patently in the vast
minority for turning against the
set of men it helped to office.
The other two newspapers, edi
torially, deplore the recent hap
penings that besmirched Omaha's
name in tones of apology. Ad
ministration partisans point out
that the officers on guard in the
courthouse could not be expected
to have stopped the mob with
bullets since there were many
boys and other innocent persons
in the crowd, drawn there by ex
citement and curiosity.
Public Anger Not Cooled.
And tonight Omaha sits tight
upon her own little volcano, ex
pecting every minute to hear that
rioting and killing again have
broken out in defiance of the mili
tary and civil authorities, which
have joined hands to preserve a
semblance of order. All know
and know well that public anger
has not been cooled by recent
happenings, and that any order
restored under present conditions
may be but temporary.
Interesting to a degree is the
viewpoint of administration par-
It tisans, tersely expressed through
an interview with a man prom
inent.in the local business world,
who said:
"Several ingredients combined
to form what was the mob mind
unified for violence and destruc
tion. There was consciousness of
the strained relations between the
whites and the blacks. Race
prejudice was accentuated locally
by the admitted attacks upon
white women, for none of which
the culprit has been punished or
certainly caught. These events
created bitter feeling against ne
groes in the several parts of the
city. ..
"Then with a considerable
element there is the dangerously
prevalent contempt for authority
all over the world, including the
United States, the feeling that
established institutions of what
ever sort are inadequate or cor
; rupt or open to the temptation io

of a few of the mob was hostility

PLANS CHANGED
FOR RECEPTION
OF KINGALBERT
Early Arrival of Belgian Roy

Announcement that the king and
queen of the Belgians 'will arrive in
Omaha on October 20 instead of
October 24, as was at first an
nounced by the State department,
will change many plans which have
been made for their reception here.
Foot ball enthusiasts are keenly
disappointed, for the king and
queen will now be unable to see the
Creightqn-Marquette, Nebraska
Missouri foot ball games, which
were to have been played as a double-header
for the Belgian rulers.
City officials and members of
civic organizations who met recent
ly at the Chamber of Commerce to
plan the reception for the royal
party put much of the responsibil
ity in the hands of Mayor Smith,
who is now confined in a hospital
as a result of the riot.
Ure to Take Charge.
The mayor's confinement throws
the responsibility on Acting Mayor
Ure, according to Assistant Com
missioner Ellis of the Chamber of
Commerce.
Instructions from the State de
partment will help in the reception.
Among the information which they
contain is the following:
In the motor car ride from the
Union station, and all subsequent
rides, the king will ride on the right
hand seat of the first motor, beside
the highest ranking official, pre
sumably the governor. If the gov
ernor's wife is present she will ride
with the queen in the 'second car.
Lots of Red Tape.
The mayor or acting mayor
rides with the prince, and the may
or's wife with the ladies in waiting
to the queen; the chairman of the
entertainment committee with the
Belgian ambassador. The wife of the
chairman of the committee comes
next with the Baroness de Cartier,
wife of the Belgian ambassador.
Should any member of the welcom
ing party fail to be present the
others will move up a notch. j
At dinner, luncheon or breakfast!
the governor will sit at the head of
the table, with King Albert at the

the advocates and apostles of
disorders who are alert every
where. It might appear, could
the truth be known; that the
main dynamic force of the mob
was of bolshevist and radical so
cialist origin. The lynching, the
arson, the pillage of stores, the
mob activity was by no means the
outcome of a merely local con
dition. It was rather the symp
toms of a general condition, as
sisted in developing itself by the
circumstances of the local sit

day that there was lack of lead

forces combatting the mob, re

did not "quit cold" as reported
last night. The complaint heard

there was no real leadership.
