Birmingham, Ala, Sept. 17. I recall mtihod of icttim rid ol
am lurprUed that there ii any terU an elected city official
hi talk of a conflict between Ameri
ca and Japan, Nippon ii hardly in
a condition to finance a war. and
there are certainly no indication in
that country of preparat..t ir
movement for any trouble," ild
Morris Adlcr, local financier, who
ha juttt returned from a 10 weekV
tour of the Sunrise Kingdom.
"Japan it Rlvlnf much thought to
developing her manufacturing Indus,
triei and ventral liu!nc. There it
plenty of money In circulation, and I
was told that the banki drrle.l a
considerable balance. The mcr
chant, however, complained lotne
of depreciation of merchandUe.
bThe country could hardly fa!e
money for a war at th! time. En
rope is impoverished and, 10, could
not advance any. At we know, Mon
ey it a vital factor when a country
embark with the war god.
"I heard much talk of Japan'
withdrawing her troopa from Si
beria, but thii, of course, wa not
official."
Mr. Adler visited Yokohama, To

37 Applications for
Naturalization To Be
AIio-perhapi for the first time
in the history ol the recall the re
call plan it linked with a program
of legislation, proposed by the Initia
tive, which if tucceatful meant that
the cititent at large virtually taki
ewer the fixing of public policy in
Mead of having that to the city
council.
Llswhere men have been recalled
from office for flagrant misdeeds or
incompetency. Elsewhere also
cititens have initiated particular
measures which .the city council
would not o. k.
But the Lincolnitet backing the
present movement propose to put a
whole program of legislation on the
city ordinance book and to recall
two of the five city commissioner!
for the avowed purpose of making
room for two othen who will, in
their opinion, be in sympathy with
this hew program.
A certain American statesman once
defined the initiative, referendum
end recall as a "gun behind the
door," to be used only in cat of
emergency. If the present reform '
movement in Lincoln goes as far at
;.n election, at now seems likely, the
gun will be out In the front parlor,
loaded to the munle and mounted
on a revolving base which permit
its being trained on a good deal of
the neighborhood.

C W. Bryan was elected one of
the five city commissioners' last
spring. Sp also was Frank C. Zeh
rung. Both had been mayor in times
past. Both were understood to seek
the mayorality again. Bryan an
nounced that, in his opinion, the one
who got' the more votes for city
commissioner should be elected
mayor by the commission, the law
providing that the five commission
ers select one of tlieir number for
mayor. Zchrung said nothing.
Bryan got a few nundred more
votes than Zehrung, but the four
commiss'onert other than Bryan
elected Zchrung mayor.
Finally Blows Up.
For ome time Bryan did not at
tend council meetings and threat
ened to resign. Finally he showed
up and assumed the administration
of the street department, to which
he had been assigned.
But if anyone thought that Charles
W. Bryan had quit the battle, ha
misted a guest.
Men claiming title as "friends of
the common people" and women,
too, stepped to the front of thestace.
Bryan modestly disclaimed any-part
in the movement, but when news
paper reporter wanted to find out
what was going on, Brother Charley
sometimes condescended to lift the
curtain. He generally knew..' v
Paramount Issue. ,"
The outcome, after a long period
of "heming and hawing," is that a
"paramount issue" has been found
and on this issue petitions have been
circulated both to initiate ordinance
and recall two commissioners.
The "paramount issue" is pro
fiteering. ' 1 k
The backers Of Bryan charge that
there it a combination of coal deal
ers to keep up prices, that there it
another combination of grocers to
maintain high prices, that the com
pany which has a monopoly on ice
distribution charges . too much 'fof
tbat commodity, and that the trac
tion company is receiving support
from some city commissioners and
other in attempts to bar motor
busses, curtail street car service and
carry on agitation for the purchase
of the antiquated car system by the
city. ';' ' .. -'.".
Charge Biased News.
All of the various combinations,
the Bryan forces claim, are given
aid and comfort by the publication
of biased news in the local press.'
To meet this situation, the
Bryanites propose the following and
have circulated petitions to submit
these propositions to a vote:
A $275,000 bond issue for 1
municipal ice plant.
A $20,000 bond issue ' forJ a
municipal coal yard. ,
A $25,000 bond issue - for a
public market
A charter amendment to re
quire candidates for the city com
mission to specify the office he
seeks and providing that the man
receiving the highest vote for that
office be assigned to it.
Defeat by the referendum of an
ordinance passed , by the city
council alleged to! be inimical to
motor busses.
Recall of Mayor Frank C.
Zchrung and Commissioner John
Wright cm the charge that they
F.C.2EHRUNG
violated the spirit of the law by
making Zchrung mayor instead of
Bryan.
The Wage-Earner.
Bryan and hi lupporter claim to
have enrolled the wage-earner, the
women's clubs and retired farmer
in their camp. On the other side are
business men and many others, in
cluding tome who declare a belief
that when a man 11 defeated for an
office to which he aspires, he should
keep still and give the Victor I
chance to make good on the job.
In the face of Bryan's claim that
the city council is opposed to "the
people 1 movement the council hat
provided for a municipal coal yard.
Also, the ice company has reduced
the price of ice.
"Don t let em fool you, criet
Brother Charley, as this campaign
thunder shows signs of tupping away,
"The ice company may raise the
price and the council may repeal the
ordinance. Let the people do the
job and then they can t change it.
All of which teems to insure
lively fall and winter in Lincoln even
if the legislature is not in session.
Sea Captains Say New
Current Wrecked Alaska
Lo Angeles, Sept. 17. Did a new
ocean current, driving in from mid-
ocean, carry the steamships Alaska
and San Jose against Pacafic coast
locks in two- recent shipping dis
asters in racific waters?
Theories to this eifect have been
expressed . here by "two experienced
and old-time sea captains. One, Capt.
P. L. Abrahamson. considered the
world's veteran sailor, has captained
ships in the Pacific ocean tot 45
years.
During his entire 72 years of life
on the sea the captain, who is 81,
has steered his vessels through, ac-
cross and around many of the great
currents of the world's largest bodies
of water.
In his belief a new current has
set in from mid-ocean and is driving
against the Pacific coast,-, and when
those in charge of the San Jose and
the Alaska thought they were a suf
ficient distance from the shore to
be safe they were correct, but when
this new current struck them the
ships were without their knowledge
carried against the shore.
A production of "King Henry V"
was given recently at btratf 'ird-on-
Avon by a cast made up entirely of
women, the first time women have
undertaken a Shakespearean produc
tion at Shakespeare's birthpii.ee.
