The Italy's mobilization began on Sunday. war god recognizes no day of rest. | With Italy reaching for some of the feathers Turkey may count itself fortunate if it saves the hide. As a source of sensational news we regret to report that the Barnes-Roosevelt libel suit is a sad disappointment. After getting all its men in position, Italy 1s ready to move in the war game. It it is not in a state of “prepareduess,” it is its own fault. See—— “On to Yankton!" s an old slogan.

Ses—— The Nebraska State Rallway commission complaing that the late legislature loaded it with more work to do, but gave it less money to do it with. The fact seems to be overlooked that the legislature had a demoeratic majority while the raflway commission is made up of republicans. Monsignor Capel, the celebrated English divine and orator, lectured ar Boyd's. He was introduced by W. L. Gibbon. The First National bank has increased its capital stock from 3200000 to $500,00 to meet demands of its growing business, and in addition is carrying a sur- plus of more than §100,000. A npumber of local base ball players, including some of the old Union Pacifics, are organizing to go up against the Omaha team on its return president of the Barber Asphalt Washington, 1s in the city for a few days, the Mannerchor fair at St. Joseph place says: “Mr. Charles Meis L cushion presented by Miss | | | time to time new mills, factories and workshops, | made-in-Omaha product of proved merit should | appeal specially to every Omaha comsumer be- tria will surprise no one—the real surprise is | entente and making common cause with them as Italy’s War Pronunciamento. Italy's formal declaration of war upon Aus- that with circumstances steadily and inevitably | bringing it into the conflict it was held back so long. While the war maifesto is directed at Aus tria alofie, it can be taken in no way than that Italy is Jjoining with the powers of so-called opposed not only to Austria, but also to Germany and Turkey as well. Further declarations in- cluding the other nations in the Italian war op- but no such erations may be forthecoming, they are en- tirely There thing with existing conditions as any two of the war- ring countries confining their offensive to one unnecessary. is another, ! That the terrible European war conflagration should have to spread before it can be extin- guished is heart-sickening. Only if the advent of Italy in some finscrutable way operates to hasten the end and speed the day of restored peace can anyone be reconciled to it Vital Factors in City Building Let it be kept constantly in mind that there ere two ways of developing Omaha as an in- dustrial center. Tt is necessary to attract from but It is equally necessary to give the established manufacturing concerns the local support they deserve and the patronage that will enable them to prosper and develop. What makes Omaha grow is the steady expansion of its various in- dustries Increasing the number of mechanics, wage workers and other employes, who in turn become the householders patronizing every line of business and every professional activity. The cause it is one of the vital factors {n the upbuild- ing of the city. Forestration for Nebraska. The Nebraska Academy of Sciences has adopted a resolution endorsing the report of the Nebraska Forestration commission and urg- ing the adoption of its recommendations. A copy of this report is not at hand, so that it can- not here be discussed, but the subject is one of immense importance to Nebraska. That it h been neglected so long 1% not especially credita- ble to us as progressive people. As far back as ten years ago, C. F. Harrison ot York had demonstrated the adaptablility of the jack pine to the climate and soil of Ne- braska's sand hill section. The inquiry, obser- vation and experimentation of the United States Conservation commission established the prac- ticability of the forestration of a large portiod of what 1s now waste land in Nebraska, It is posgible to make the sand hills bear pine trees and grasses that will render the region availa- ble for grazing purpo far beyond its present | possibilities. ] The Bee has presented this matter to the public on many occasions and has urged it en the legislature as a proper<ubject for careful _attention. Forestration deserves o be-pushed,’ because of the good that it contains for the future of the state, but it is for the state to assume the expense and responsibility for the: diréction care of the enterprise that is greater in its promise than nine out of ten projects put forward with more of urgency. The action of the Academy of Sclences should not be permitted to fall with the adoption of the resolution referred to, but should be given such support that when the next legislature meets the subject of forestration may be so presented that it cannot be ignored or pigeon- holed. Another Reviving Industry. Reports from various shipyards and ma- chine shops along the coasts establish the fact that the marine engineering industry is in a very healthy condition of activity just at present. Americans are really entering into ocean traffic again with something like a determination to become a factor in the world carrying trade, The failure of the administration shipping bill in the senate apparently was not fatal to the revival of enterprise along these lines. Numer- ous large ocean mers are under construction now for American owners, to be added to the oargo-carriers under the American flag, while it is stated the American line will ask the gov- ernment for a Joan to construct two ships of the Lusitania type, a matter which will have to awalt congressional action. Not alone are the ship builders of the United States busy with orders from American owners, but South American companies are buying many vessels for increasing their merchant navies. Facilities for docking in many eastern coast ha! bors are being Increased, and other improve- wents and extensions for greater facllity in handling ocean traffic are being provided. it appears that the shipping business, serfously us it has been atffected by the war, is not in o bad way, and that Americans actually are taking advantage of the opportunity to again become a factor in ocean traffic, From a flush and flasny candidate for United States senator to a debtor's prison in New York, measures the toboggan slide of J. Edward Ad- dicks of Delaware. In his efforts to attain the former eminence eleven years of his life and approximately $3,000,000 were wabted. Tlu‘ case furniches another instance of ambition and fortune overreaching themselv American hearts surfeited witn sympathy | for a suffering old world should not overlook | the sorrows of Mexico's revolutionary press | agents. Forced out of the publicity spotlight by more important events, their grief deserves a sympathetic sob and a tightening of the man- tle of silence Vienna's home guards are reported to be enthusiastic over Italy’s entrance into the war.

Post. but what have you got Bryan?" ‘This question wi about asked by & prom- inent business man after he had reluctantly to eay confessed that the president's mote and his entire handiing of the German situation had redeemed such mistakes” as the tariff bill and the poliey toward Mexico and convinced him that the man in the Whita House Is in every way equal to the task before him The question is suggestive. What is there to say about Willlam J. Bryan today—particularly now that his sticking to his desk and abandonment at least for the moment of his Chautauqua lectures has deprived the humorous paragraphers and cartoonists of any excuse for lampooning the secretary of state? Well, there are several answers to be made. The first I that whatever may be the popular impression in regard to Mr. Bryan, and however numerous his mistakes of tact and policy, the visitor to Washing ton who has the means to acquire an inside knowledge soon finds out that Mr. Bryan has the complete re- spect of his cabinet associates. They all amfle at some of his vagaries and regret some of his non- official activities, but they like him and think well of him nonetheless. Primarily it is because of his intense loyalty to the president Now, it 1s easy to say that a cabinet officer owes loyalty to the president first of all, but there are ail kinds and degrees of loyalty. Mr. Bryan's variety is singularly whole-hearted, devoted and faithful. Be- tween the two men, so dissimilar in training, in ante- cedents, In mental processes, has sprung up a genuine and affectionate friendship. On Mr. Bryan's part there s the profoundest admiration for his chief, whose superiority in ability and in literary and po- litical skill he most generously concedes. On Mr Wilson's side there is genuine regard and sincere gratitude for great ald freely given, not only in the matter of the currency bill, which stands largely as Mr. Bryan's personal contribution tosthe fine record for achlevement of the Wilson administration, but in other leglalative matters, indeed in all matters It is, of course, a fact that all the most important steps taken in our exceedingly difficult foreign rela- tions during the last two years have been Initlated and outlined by the president. The future historian of this administration will be able to make a start. ling showing as to the number of notes signed by Br; which have been written by Woodrow Wiison We are witnessing, In short, a phenomenon some- what similar to that occasionally seen in the British cabinet when the prime minister takes over a given portfolio, whether it be that of foreign affairs or of the war office, with this difference, that the prime minister usually takes over a vacant office. Mr Bryan might be sald to have voluntarily assumed a | position somewhat approximating that of the British under-secretary for foreign affaire. So far from having any feeling because of the taking over by the president of the composition of the most important notes, which began early in the administration with Mr. Wilson's drafting the replies to Japan, he has walcomed the president’s readiness to take over this duty, and frequently consults him about minor docu- ments, and asks him for aid in licking them into shape. This the president frequently accomplishes by & mere stroke or two of his pen, for which achieve- ment Mr. Bryan's admiration is not concealed. But the very fact that the president, as captain of the ship of state, s In charge of the forelgn affairs of the United States makes it all the more unjust when men of the standing of George W. Wickersham and others of like caliber unfairly attack My. Bryan for the policy of the government in that field of en- deaver. If thers is any criticism to be made of the foreign policy, they should at least make tneir charges | against the man responsible, who happens to be the president of the United States, No one must think, however, from the above that MAY 24, 1915. Mr. Bryan is a nonentity or that he fails to make contributions of genuine value at cabinet meetings. Hle is forceful and earnest in his presentation of his views, and he has an extraordinary ability to put ‘mself in the other man's place. His contribution ‘of an important paragraph to the Wilson note to Ger- many is but an example of his useful activities, and his cabinet assoclates are still talking In highest admiration of his extraordinary eloquent statement of his views at the meeting on Tuesday at which the note was agreed to. He has been scrupulously eager to do Justice to Germany £nd to have it known that he for one s quite as ready to resent outrages agalnst in- ternational law on the part of the English as on the part of the Germans. He is consistently pacific in his feelings, and at the cabinet meeting threw all his influence in the direction of being as lenient with the kalser's government ‘as possible, and giving it & loop- hole through which to retire gracefully. His devotion to principle is remarkable, despite his free-silver rec- ord, and he ls willing to make any saerifice for the cause. It is known that he would not hesitate to run for governor of Nebraska next year if he thought it would help the party, and he is eagey to make any sacrifice to aid Mr. Wilson, because he belleves tha the president is a sincere democrat with a small * and thoroughly devoted to the welfare of the m: of the people. Mr. Bryan's wepknesses as secretary of elate are chiefly due to his lack of education, and particularly to his lack of expeiience in administrative office. Until he came here he was a leader with a never- ceasing flow of language and promise without ever having had the experiemce of translating promises and theories into action or legislation. He was an agitator, pure and simple—a self-made man—and onc, be it noted, who never reads a book, but gains his knowledge of political problems and remedies exclu- sively from newspapers, magasines and contact with many human beings. Mr. Wilson's great atrength lics in his ability to tackle any great question and come to a finality about it by the gpplication of intense mental effort trained by years of studious and methodical scholarship. As a teacher, he has had to be exact in his facts. Mr, Bryan knows nothing of that kind of approach to a problem; he has never before had to think intensively and exactly with the knowledge that Le will be held responsible for his utterances. He is obviously lacking in taste, breeding and knowledge of the world, despite his traveling. But this is off- #et by his earnestness, his rugged force, and his real humility, for that is the word that best describes his attitude in the cabinet One has only to think how much mischief Mr. Bryan could do If he were only outwardly loyal, or it he were as ambitious as was Blaine in the same position, to realize the contributions Mr. Bryan is making to the success of the administration. There has been no sign whatever of any attempt on his part to bulld up a political machine or to work for the succession to the presidency. Nor is there the slightest evidence of any selfish desire to make capi- tal for himself or to stay in the limelight. He does not cultivate the newspaper men; Indeed he gets on very badly with them. Although there has recently been noted a change for the better in his attitude toward the correspondents and his handling of them, the daily gatherings of the newspaper men in his office have often been rather pitiful spectacles. Mr. Bryan has been hostile and dublous of himself and At times easily baited, and some of the mewspaper men of the less respectable press have readily lent themselves, perbaps under instructions from home offices, to the baiting process. | Finally, it must not be forgotten that Mr., Bryan's shortcomings are very human and that many of s qualities make a very deep appeal to the great mid- @dle classes, particularly in the west, who are the backbone and perhaps even the controlling factors, in the republic. However New York and Boston may sneer at him and assert that his being in the State department is an offense to the nation, here is a powerful and impressive factor in the administration striving to do his best according to his limitations. Frequenty a lap behind the rest of the administra- tion, and even of the developments in his own fleld, often hurt and pussled by criticlsm, and unable to understand the public faultfinding directed against him, he is still & good American with a far better appreciation of national and interpational ideals than vast numbers of his critics. And above all, he s playing the game fairly and squarely as best he can, pulling a8 steady an oar as possible, and endeavoring to keep the bout speeding along on a straight and even course, even though all the credit therefor should go to the captain and nowe to him. Not riff—Only a Constable. OMAHA, May 21.<To (nc Editor of The Bee: In an excited interview over the Phone, yesterday, from the sheriff's of fice, Mr. Foster demands that 1 exon: ate the rheriff as regards the inhuman eviction of the Bradfords, Tuesday, and 1 hasten to make the smend honorable *Neither Sherift McShane nor this office is responsible for the execution of that writ,” declared Mr. Foster, heatedly. “It 18 obvious that with all the onerous duties | devolving upon this office, Including our | trouble with the criminal classes and the Insane, we cannot attend personally to the serving of eviction write. We leave that to subordinates. Shoulder all the blame in that little matter on Okio street, where it righttully belongs—upon the justice who issued the writ and the constable, who served and executed it." 1 stand corrected. Sheriff McShane was hunting down criminals and attending to the culinary menage of the Douglas county Jjall. His responsibliities are heavy in that direction, and I am the last person in Omaha to add & straw's weight to his burden. The trifling matter of intruding upon a dying woman Wwith the merciless hand of the law, and has- tening her approach to the other world, because her husband owed their land- lord the pitful sum of $10 for a month's rent, cannot be lald at the door of any but “subordinates.’ Can any unprejudiced reader of The Pee tell the friends and neighbors of the Bradfords, where the responsibility belongs in this case? Dces it rest upon the Fpnets, who persecuted their unfor- tunate temants in every concetvable way, even to ordering the city water turned off, so that the neighbors had to carry it to the sufferer, from their own homes, and take her food to her as well? Could they have turned out these people with- out the sanction of the law? Are they alone responsible for the birth of a child to Mrs. Bradford's married daughter be- fore the time, because of the excitement of that heart-rending scene and its al- most fatal consequences? Or could “sub- | ordinates” have acted vipon their own au- thority in carrying out what they de- clared were their “orders? Do mere constables arrive in an automobile, and jssue imperative instructions to other ‘underlings,” who obey in order not to lose their own official employment? it some one will kindly elucidate these puzzling Inconsistencies. Mr. Foster tried very hard to make it all clear to me over the phone, but a merely feminine mind cannot seem to grasp the intricacies of the sheriff's departmental duties and obligations. With the other witnesses of the outrage, I can see only a suffering | woman, crying out /n agony, imploring in vain to be left to dle in her own bed, in peace, and seated in his automobile a representative of e law, callously ordering his underlings to “Hurry up with it—we can’t fool here all day.” ELSID ROBPRTSON That School Flareback at Florence. FLORENCE, Neb., May Editor of The Bee. On commencement night T made a speech before a Florence audieace of several hundred people, in which I accused County Superintendent Yoder and W. H. Thomas of getting out the vote at our last annual school elec- tion to defeat W. B. Parks, one of my friends who had served on the board for twelve years, and to elect Mr. Spencer and Mr. Coe with the understanding that they were to drop me from the schools. There was great secrecy observed and no open issue made, so they elected their men. Three of the gentlemen named wers present at the exercises and had ample opportunity to answer me before the people of Florence, as fully twenty minutes intervened between my speech and the class play, which followed. Why did they not answer to the people of TFlorence? Was it because they comsidered the occasion sacred? Not so, for they Afs- cussed my speech aloud while it pro- gressed and W. H. Thomas showed his @reat fitness for his position by whist- ling shrilly. The reason was that the applause was thunderous. The people know I am right and showed it in no uncertain manner. These gentlemen knew how futile their denial would be here where the facts are kmown. This was a private washing of dirty lnen that was of interest to the people of Florence only, but Spencer rushes into print to defend himself to the people of the state, who are not interested either in him or me. His ignorance of our #chool affairs is shown in several of his statements. He sald that I had been superintendent of the schools here for six yéars. I have been here ten years. He sald 1 had produced discord among my teachers. No man ever had & more loyal teaching force. He cannot name a single grade, special or high school teacher who is not the soul of loyalty. He sald I did not treat the board with consideration. There has always been the most cordial feeling between myself and the school board, excepting only Mr. ‘W. H. Thomas, who forced me to =it upon him for trying to meddle with my administrative affairs. If he considers Mr. Thomas the board, then I stand guilty as charged. He also sald that the board did not consider me the man for the place. In this again he was mis- taken, unless he and Mr. Thomas are the whole of a board of six. I do not desire to enter into a news- paper controversy, and expected to meet these gentlemen openly in their own home and have them there defend them- selves. The people of the town are with me and have told me so by scores since the speech. T desired only to expose the cheap politice by which my political enemies hope to remove me from their way. 1 was truly sorry that T was forced to use such an occasion for that purpose, but the people of Florence enjoyed it, and no one complained of its being a dull commencement.
