Momentous Questions


"Our guns destroyed the Spanish fleet;
but can they destroy that self-evident
truth, that governments derive their just
powers, not from superior force. but from
the consent of the governed?
Shall we abandon just resistance to
European encroachment upon the western
hemisphere in order to mingle in the con-
troversies Of Europe and Asia?
Nebraska, standing midway between
oceans, will contribute her full share to-
ward the protection Of the coasts; her
sons will support the flag at home and
abroad, wherever the interests of the ma
ton may require. Nebraska will hold up
the hands Of the government while the
battle RACES, and when the war clouds roll
away her voice will be heard pleading for
the maintenance Of those ideas which in
spired the founders OF our government and
gave the nation it's proud eminence among
the nations of the earth.
"If others turn to thoughts Of aggrand-
izement and yield allegiance to those who
clothe land-covetousness in the attract
i've garb of national destiny the people Of
Nebraska will, If mistake not their senti-
ments, plant themselves upon the disclaim-
err entered by congress and expect that
good faith shall characterize the making Of
peace, as 1t did the beginning of war. Gold
smith calls upon statesmen:
"'To Judge how wide the limits stand
Betwixt a splendid and happy land
heterogeneous empire encircling the globe,
we shall be content to aid in bringing en-
during happiness to homogeneous people,
consecrated to the purpose Of maintaining
a government Of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people,"

BRYAN ON The WAR
SPEAKS FOR HIS STATE AT THE
oMAHAE EXPOSITION
THE PRESENT STRUGGLE JUST
The Orator Warns the People Against
Departure From the Principles
Of the Constitution


Associated Press Special Wire
OMAHA, June 1.-THE Nebraska build
ing at the exposition was dedicated today
with appropriate ceremony amid the plaud-
its of thousands of the states citizens.
Governor Holcomb and staff took part In
the exercises, along with many OF the
states most distinguished residents. The
speakers of the day were Hon. c. ]. Smith,
Hon. W. F. Gurley and Hon. w. J. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan's grafton was notable for his
first public declaration on the war ISSUE
He took high ground on the question, urg-
ing that the war is for humanity and not
for the extension of United States terri
tory. In concluding he said the manifest
DESTINY of this nation is not to acquire
new realms to govern, but to carry out
the fundamental principles of democracy,
10 the end that equality among the citizens
may be secured.
After discussing the resources of Ne
braska Mr.. Bryan made the following ref
erence to the war and its results:
WAR is harsh; it is attended by hard
ship and suffering; 1t means vast ex-
penditure of men and money. We may
we'll pray for tho coming Of the time prom
ised in holy writ, when the spears shall be
beaten into pruning hooks and the swords
into plow shares, but universal peace can
not come until justice is enthroned
throughout the world. Jehovah deals
with nations as he deals with men, and
for both DEGREES that the wages of sin
is death. Until the right has triumphed
in every land and love reigns in every
heart, governments must. as last resort.
appeal to force. AS long as the oppressor
is deaf to the voice Of reason, SO long
must the citizen accustom his shoulder to
the musket and his hand to the saber.
Not Peace at Any Price
"Our nation exhausted diplomacy in its
efforts to secure a peaceable solution Of
the Cuban question, and only took up
arms when 1t was compelled to choose
between war and servile acquiescence to
cruelties which would have been a disgrace
to barbarism.
History will vindicate the position taken
by the United States in the war with Spain.
In saying this assume that the principles
which were invoked in the Inauguration of
the war will be served in its prosecution
and conclusion. If a contest undertaken
for the sake of humanity degenerates into
g. war of conquest we shall find it difficult
to deny the charge of having added hypoc-
risy to greed. Is our national character
so weak that we cannot Withstand the
temptation to appropriate the first piece
of land that comes within our reach?
ITO inflict upon the enemy all possible
harm is legitimate warfare; but shall we
contemplate scheme for the colonization
of the orient merely because our fleet won
a remarkable victory in the harbor Of
Manila?

DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.

Ever since Salt Lake saw Nat Good

cette Ryleys play, 1.-The American Citi-
zen." she has felt a. warm interest in
that gifted playwright, and the an
nouncement that 1.-The Myst7-ous Mr..
Bugle'' is from her pen will alone cause
it to be warmly greeted. Added to that
j. the fact that 10 Holland, so well re-
membered for his work in "Wilkinson's
Widows" and other plays, will head the
company. Mr.. Hollands clean, incisive
methods are very far removed from the
knock-ab0ut style so popular with
actors usually found in plays under this
caption. Though he gains as many
laughs as are gained by the average
species Of acrobatic comedians, his
humor does not offend intelligence.
THE Mysterious Mr.. Bugle' is said
to be play Of the French type in argu-
ment and treatment, but free from the

teristic of the Partisan school In this

The Salt Lake Dramatic company
reappeared twice yesterday, rendering a
matinee at 25-cent rates, and repeating
the bill in the evening at the higher
scale of prices. The attendance was
good in the afternoon, fair in the even
ing, and the probabilities are that the
receipts of the three renditions will not
reimburse the amateurs for their out
lay. Their expenses must have been
large, notably for the dressing which,
on the part of the ladies. was quite
handsome. "FennelP' was produced

though he excluded the space occupied

some years among those who knew
that the measurements had been made
by him, as Tryon had been engaged in
the show business all his life, and was
supposed to have had a great deal of
experience in such matters.
But his estimate was smashed to
smithereens yesterday, when careful
measurements were taken by Foreman
Starley of the temple block, aided by
two others, the building being gone
over very carefully twice.
The official figures OF the measure
ments are as follows: Ground floor,
1920; gallery, 1882.
The space reserved for the choir, pre-
siding officers, upper seats under the
gallery, ward bishops, home mission

of the world-famed building, therefore,

1t was something of a sumner to
many people who had pinned their
faith to the old tradition that the tab
ernacle seated 5000 or 10000 people, to
read in The Herald that the handsome
audience in attendance at the Stephens
testimonial only counted up 1852 paid
admissions. This means that with the
complimentary tickets and the choir
added, there were not more than $500
people in the house. The seating ca

The most recent of happily married
actresses to forsake her comfortable
