i LAST FEW PLUNS DANGLE UPON TREE When Governor Has Named Print- ing Commissioner and Several Others, Little Left. SOME ATTRACTIVE IN LIST (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June M.—(Special)—With the appointment of insurance commis- sloner out of the way the governor will now have the job of selecting a print- ing commissioner, member of the pardon hoard and three supreme court commis- sioners. When these are appointed . it will about clean off everything that is left on the political plum tree, with the exception of a few partially dried up and Inconsequential plume. The printing commissioner job is an attractive one, because it pays 5150 a yoar and does not require very energetic work or long hours. The lucky incum- |- bent ean always find time to attend to a little private business and be quite regu- lar at the ball games, without interfer- ing with the duties of the office Pour Candidates. There are four candidates who could easily bs prevalled upon to take on the duties. They are E.

These men have been offered extraor- dinary advance in pay by holders of huge contracts with the belligerent govern- ments and several commissioned officers, experts in ordnance manufacture have |also gone into private employment. The result has been to threaten serious em- | barrassment in keeping the American army properly supplied. Officials of the department, It was | learned, have been looking over the law |to ses what can be done to retain its trained men. The officers can of course be held by not accepting their resigna- tions. It is also found that in 180, when complications with France threatened, a statute .was enacted providing a fine of $0, and imprisonment for three months for any person seeking to induce an em- ploye of a government arsenal to leave that employment during the life of his contract with the government. The statute has never been repealed, but no attempt to invoke it has been made within the memory of any living man. Army officials are said to feel that it may be necessary to bring it to bear to protect the government's own supplies of arms and ammunition.

Definite state- ments a8 to the attitude of the Ger- man government with respeci to the note are not yet available, but in cir- | cles, which, while themselves not of- ficially responsible, are often good barometers of the sentiment in re- was assistant sponsible quarters, the note seems to have made a .distinctly favorable |. impression and is believed to offer the possibility of negotiations on which a satisfactory settlement might be reached. The conciliatory tone of the note ap- parently has evoked a responsive attl- tude here.

The note | opens the way for negotlations between Germany and America regarding what Germany can do and what America must @0 to protect lives in the future.' The Lokal Anzeiger says: “From the wording of the note, as it | is now published, one mees that the an- ' nouncements sent out broadcast by the enemy that the note would be an ulti- matum—nothing else was to be expected— were wholly baseless. The form is | friendly and it contains no asperity, as | had been announced. ‘“The new note is really a roundabout expression by President Wilson of his | original standpoint and It will be a mat- ter of further negotiations, during which the German arguments will be repeated and their justification proved. “It would be premature to go into de- tafls, and espécially of a technical na- ture, now; it is enough to be satisfied that the Wilson note 13 so ‘constructed as to admit the possibility of additional negotiations.

He suggested that the German government produce further proofs substantiating the claims regard- fng the Lusitania, and declares himself ready to act as an intermediary between Germany and Great Britain regarding mutual concesslons so far as submarine warfare is conoerned, Might Have Been More Valuable. “True, this offer would have been of considerable more value If the president had explained that he was willing to make such propositions, whereas he inti- mated that Germany and Great Britaln should initiate the suggestions. ‘However that may be, the United States will see from further negotiations that Germany has an honorable desire to treat a friendly suggestion in a friendly spirit. ‘At all events, the situation created by the publication of the note is wuch that the hypothesis heralded throughout the world that America also was in the ranks of our enemies s now shown to be once more the old case of the wish being father to the thought.” Captain Persius, the naval expert of the Tageblatt, writes: “A harmonizing of views is possible and the Washington government shows a sincere disposition to reach an under- standing. That Is the keynote of the American note; there is no sabre-rat- tiing." Captain Persfus assumes that the Ger- man answer will remove the last obstacle in the way of eliminating all difficulties. As he understands the American note, it by no means takes the view that the German admiralty must order a suspen- slon of submarine warfare before nego- tlations can proceed. Britain Firet to Offend. He regrets “that the United States has falled duly to appreciate Germany's previous offer to place restrictions upon the sctivity of the submarine. provided the British abandon their efforts to starve Germany,” and adds that it is certaln that no satisfactory selution is possible unless Great Britain makes this concession. as Great Britaln “was the first to break the international law.” He concludes: “We have firm confidence that the friendly relations between Germany and the United States will smooth the way to & complote understanding and thus give victory to justice and humanity.” DEATH RECORD.
