UNITED STATES NOTE
DELIVERED TO KAISER
(United Pres0)

Berlin, June 12.-Kaiser William
has received the United States note.
1t was given wire preference over all
other dispatches and was forwarded
to him at the Galician front where
he is at present with his soldiers.
No comment accompanied the note,
merely the text being telegraphed 70
him. The friendly phrasing of the
document has removed the American
apprehension here of break between
Germany and the United States.

Headquarters of the British Army,
Northern France, April 29.-(By
mail to New York. )-"HOW shall we
distribute them to the soldiers, sir 2"
asked an officer who came up during
my conversation with the director of
medical services.
"It doesn't make any difference
what channel we turn them into
just so the soldiers get them," an
swered the director.
"We've just found a simple ap-
paratus for our soldiers to wear that
will save them from the German
cases." said he. "The point is to
get them distributed as quickly as
possible"
The health of Gen. French's great
army in France and Flanders is In
the hands of the head Of the Royal
Army Medical corps, and it is as much
the duty of the r. A. M. G. to save
soldiers from German pneumonia
as the gas person is being called by
the British soldiers, as it is to save
them from typhoid fever. Within
only few hours time that the first
| word came that the Germans were
using gas, the r. A. M. G. had taken
up the task of meeting the new
situation. It's doctors were sent out
on the firing line, studying the symp-
toms of the poisoning; it's motor
laboratories were experimental with
gases and antidotes. The r. M. A.
| G. duty is not only to keep sick SOL
diers healthy, but to take care OF
them when they are sick or wounded

Belief General at Washington That
Wilson's Note May Lead to Peace
Conference Officials Optimistic.
RESIGNATION GIVES INFLUENCE
Bryan's Action May Open Way to Ne
goiations Between Nations-Kaiser
Can Accept With Dignity.
(Unltsd Press)

Washington, June 12.-That Ger
many will accept the demands of the
United States note delivered to the
Berlin foreign Office yesterday by Am
bassador Gerard and to the kaiser to-
day, thereby giving a guarantee that
the lives of Americans at sea will be
protected, is the widespread belief OF
officials here. Optimism, more pro-
nounced than at any time since the
war began, is manifested here over
the prospects of peaceful outcome
OF the pending controversy.
Lead to Peace Farley.
The presidents suggestion of medi-
alton is cited and it is believed that
peace parley will result.
May Retain Dignity.
The note has been interpreted on
all sides as being decidedly friendly
and leaving the way open to salts
factory solution with both sides. Of
ficials made it clear that the note
had purposely been ~phrased so as to
reiterate the earnestness of the Unit
ed States with respect to the princi-
pies of humanity, and international
law, and at the same time afford Ger
many an opportunity with dignity to
make her practice square with the
principles expressed.
Much Importance is attached to
the statement of the willingness If
the United States to exercise it's good
offices as; between the billigerents in
any attempt to arrive at an UNDER
standing "by which the character and
conditions of the war upon the sea
may be changed" This, it was be-
lieved, might result in correspondence
leading ultimately in peace negotia-
tions
Important influence.
The resignation of Bryan, because
his belief that the note to Germany
might lead to hostilities is a factor
which high officials here regard likely
to have an important influence on
the situation in Berlin, because he
revealed in advance that Wilson
would reject any protracted parley
and would not surrender the right of
Americans to travel on unarmed and
unresisting ships of any nationality.
Inasmuch as Bryan interpreted the
note as likely to lead to war, much
more strength Of purpose, it was ad-
mitted in official quarters, would be
attached to the note on it's receipt in
in Berlin, while the German public
would not find in the text itself any
provocation for a rupture in rela-
tions.

The Man and the Land

We read in daily newspaper that
the California Legislature is approp.
Rating 100000 to employ iobless Cal
ifOrnians in the work of clearing
several Thousand acres of State lands.
These lands will then be subdivided
and thrown upon the market at low
price to actual settlers. No principal
or interest will be demanded during
the first five years Of occupation:
subsequently per cent on the prin-
cipal and per cent on deferred pay
ments will be payable for twenty
years. BY that time the man on
tile land will own the land, and it is
figured that that means $4,000 fam
lilies. This is good news and Califor-
mia will bear watching while she
works out her plan. Golfers.

A Peace Conference

A Statewide meeting will be held
in Topeka on February 18th in the
interests of permanent world peace.
The proclamation issued by Governor
Capper calling this coference asks for
the appointment of three delegates
from all church and labor organiza-
tions, woman's clubs, boards Of trade,
commercial clubs, and peace societies
Of the state. The attendance is
urged OF all mayors Of cities, county
and city uperintendentS Of schools
and school principals, all state officers
and members Of the legislature.
Each mayor is also asked to appoint
one delegate at large from his city
and one DELEGATE for each 5000 inhab-
itants, and general invitation is
given to members of peace societies
and others who are interested in the
peace movement.
This conference has been called by
the Governor at the suggestion of
peace societies in a number of the
Kansas cities. Its purpose is not to
criticise the parties to the present
war, but to promote a sentiment for
organization of civilization in self de-
Tense against the danger of a repeti-
ton OF such a disaster, and to crystil-
ize sentiment to insure a lasting
peace when the present conflict is
over.

Carl Schurz on Peace and
War

have seen war. have seen it with
itsrglories and its horrors: with It's
noble emotions and its bestiaities;
with its exaltations andtriumphs and
its unspeakable miseries and baneful
corruptions: and say to you, ! feel
my blood tingle with indignation
when | hear the Hippant talk of war
as if it were only a holiday pastime
or an athletic sport. We are often
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1915-02-05

told that there are things worse than
war. Yes: but not many. He de-
serves the curses of mankind who, in
the exercise of power, forgets that
war should be only the very last re-
sort, even in contending for just
and beneficient end, after all the re-
sources of peaceful methods are
thoroughly exhausted. As an Amer
lean, proud Of his country and anxious
that this Republic should prove itself
equal to the most glorious of its OPP
portunities, can not but denounce
as wretched faulty that so-called
patriotism which will not remember
that we are the envy of the world
for the priceless privilege of being ex-
empt from the oppressive burden of
warlike preparations, which, when 1t
sees other nations groaning under
that load, tauntingly asks, Why not
disarm?' and then insists the Ameri-
can people, too, shall put the incubus
Of heavy armament on their backs,
and which would drag this Republic
down from its high degree of the
championship of peace among nations
and degrade it to the vulgar level of
the bully, ready and eager for fight.
We hear much of the necessity of
an elaborate system of coast fortitica-
tions to protect our seaports from
assault. How far such system may
be desirable | will not here discuss.
But | am cofdent our strongest, most
effective, most trust worthy, and in
finately the cheapest coast defense
will consist in Fort Justice, Fort
Good Sense, Fort Self-respect, Fort
Good Will, and, If international diff
erences really do arise, Fort Arbitra-
ton
Let no one accuse me Of res0rting
to the clap-trap of the stump speech
in discussing this grave subject. |
mean exactly what | say, and am
soemnly in earnest. This Republic
can have no other armament as effect
i've as the weapons of peace. Its
security, its influence, its happiness,
and its glory will be the greater the
less it thinks of war. Its moral
authority will be far more potent
than the heavy squadrons and the big
guns of others. And this authority
will, in its intercourse with foreign
nations, be best obtained by that
justice which is the duty of all; by
, that generous regard not only for the
rights but also the self-respect of
Others, which is the distinguishing
mark of the true gentleman; and by
that patient forbearance which is the
gracious virtue of the strong.

My Symphony

To live the law of life, clean of
body and mind, without drugs, slim
ulants, or narcotics; to know there is
no sin but ignorance, and do my
best to remove that ignorance 10y
listening to the wise and instructing
the ignorant; to love my brother
whom 1 have seen and believe in him
as the best evidence of God who is
unseen.
To ask nothing for myself that all
cannot have on the same fair and
equal terms; to be guided by con-
science and try each day to improve
my conscience; to use what | earn
as wisely as can, and not to fear
the morrow; to value friends as the
best the world offers; to try to be the
friend l would have, yet serve truth
and righteousness before friends; to
live above envy, hate and fear and
in no way to conquer evil except by
good; to pray by words and deeds
more by deeds than words; to know
that nothing can make me happy or
unhappy but myself, and to live
cheerfuly and bravely in the day, and
when night comes, rest in faith of an
other day tomorrow.-L. NJ. Powers.
