    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."

tion to Senator Hitchcock and his

cord. He reiterated his endorsement of

night. His address here followed

BOYS MUST AID
ON FARMS DUE TO
HELP SHORTAGE
Winside Farmer Says Paying
Youths Only Solution
, To Problem of
Labor.
Louis J. Te Poel, whose appoint
ment as dean of Creighton law
school was announced Wednesday
by the president of that institution.
Frofessor Te Poel completed his
collegiate studies at the University
of Nebraska, and his lay course at
Columbia' university, New York.
"After' receiving his.L. L. B. degree
lie cpnthuied .graduate work in the
school of political science for which
lie was given an A. M. degree.
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."
