THE BUE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, APK1L 'J, BRYAN SAYS HIS HITCHCOCK RAPS ARE CONFESSED In Renewed Attack, Commoner Claims Charges In His In dictment Virtually Conceded. Claiming that every charge made in his indictment of Senator Hitch cock is virtually confessed by the Omaha World-Herald in replies to his attacks, William Jennings Bryan cunes forth in a renewed attack. "The World-Herald, after ,jwo days' reflections, makes a reply which virtually confessed every charge made in my indictment of Senator Hitchcock," says Mr. Bryan. "First It is silent on the' charge that in 1912 Senator Hitchcock championed Wall street's candidate for the democratic nomination for rresident. The senator is not .sorry and makes no pretense of change in hit sympathies. "Second It does not deny that the senator wrote the republican mi nority report against the currency bill and stood with Wall street against the material features of the bill, i- It siiply claims for him that he proposed some amendments and voted for it on its final passage (when he found that he could not kill the bill and his vote was not needed for its passage.) Insult to 45 States. ''Third It claims that prohibition is a dead issue and that Mr. Hitchcock's- advocacy of wine and beer does hot raise 'a major issue." It does not deny that the senator tried to prevent prohibition and refused to give expression to the known wishes of his constituents on the question. 'It does not give Senator Hitch cock's definition of harmless bever age the alcoholic contents is not mentioned or explain why the senator dignified the wine and beer issue by making it the only one men tioned in his telegram to those in charge- of his , Omaha coming-out banquet. "The nation can not intrust the enforcement of prohibition to one who docs not believe in it. His nomination would be an insult to the 43 states that ratified prohibition, and a handicap to the democratic candidates in the 34 states that have adopted prohibition and in the dry districts of the states that have not adopted prohibition by state action. Waives Suffrage Question. "Fourth The World -'Herald waves the suffrage question aside as a settled question, but does not explain why the 1 party should of fend all women voters of the country by nominating a man who insolent ly, insisted upon putting the most depraved men above women as citi zens, and did this after his own state had conferred suffrage by statute and after the legislature had by unanimous vote requested him to vote for snbtnission of the national amendment. "Fifth It misrepresents my posi tion on the treaty. I commended Mr. Hitchcock's fight for ratification without reservations while that seemed possible, but insisted on rati fication with reservations when a majority agreed upon reservations and condemn Senator Hitchcock for opposing majority rule in the senate and for trying to make the treaty an issue in the coming . cam paign. s. Would Battle Differences. , "After ignoring the - charges against Mr. Hitchcock, the World Herald attempts to belittle the dif ferences between Senator Hitchcock and myself. It is sufficient to say in reply that these differences, when much less important than they are now, were sufficient to make Mr. Hitchcock feel justified in opposing me as delegate to two national con ventions. ' "If, "in spite of past -agreements, the differences were such as to for feit my claim, thrice a democratic candidate for .' president, to Mr; Hitchcock's support for delegate in 1912. and 1916 (and in 1920 -also), with what consistency can the sen ator deny that the larger differences of today are sufficient to forfcit-his claim to my support for a presiden tial nomination? "The real questibn before the dem ocracy of Nebraska is whether it can best aid the cause of democracy by sending Mr. Bryan as a delegate to the national convention or by paying Senator Hitchcock an empty compliment." Bryan Reiterates Stand Against Senator Hitchcock Sidney, Neb., April 8. (Special.) Following a dinner given him by a number of representative chizens here, W. J. Bryan spoke to a packed house presenting, his candi dacy for delegate at large to the demoer: tic national convention.

His address here followed two meetings held in Bridgeport and ocottsbluff. Organize Wood Club. Hebron, Neb., April 8. (Special.) Chaplain Squires of Pierre, S.

That it vll be necessary to put farm boys 10 and 12 years .old to work on the farms after school has closed to make up for the shortage of hired farm help is the' opinion of John Newman of Winside. who was a visitor at the South Omaha stock yards Thursday with a couple of loads of live stock. "Many of our youngsters, who have never handled the rein's over ?. work team, will be taught how to run riding cultivators, plows, hav rakes and mowers, because we can not get enough farm help," he said. "The boys will not be given heavv work' and they can easilv be of great service with a gentle work team and riding farm implements. It will keep their minds occupied and a great deal easier task tfian carrying water to farm hands dur ing harvest, doing chores or weed ing gardens. "I think, those boys will make bet ter farm help than the average band that comes from the city and there will be no necessity of teaching them- the general run of farm vork. as they will take to it as natural as a duck takes to-water. I think it is the nearest so.lution to the problem of the shortage of farm help. Of course, farmers must expect to pay their boys well,- which will encour age them and 'give them something to look forward to." Yes iree! .
