Dean Of American Aotors.

II Ii indeed special distinction for an
Omaha audience to have been allowed to play
the host 20 the SEVENTEEN anniversary birthday
party for William H. Crane. the dean of Amer
lean actors and to join with his stage associates
In paying tribute to the man.
Hale and hearty. fun Of life and vigor, with
a cheerful outlook on the world and the clear
vision OF unimpaired faculties. his years SIT
lightly on Mr.. Crane. and he goes about his daily
work with a zest that would be notable in q per-
son Of half his age. His ffty-two annual
seasons on the stage have been full of remarka-
bic experiences. and In retrospect present q won
derfui panorama. His active life extends over
the years that have seen the theater in America
advance from its state OF acknowledged crudity
to very respectable position In the world OF art
II is q genuine testimonial to his intelligence
and Inspiration that he has advanced with this
growth, keeping his own ideals and holding his
place as leader. while the taste OF the public
was developed and strengthened on matters that
pertain to art. Contemporaneous with actors
whose memories are fondy reyered. he easily
made the transition from the ''old" to the new"
school OF acting with distinct advantage to him
self as an exponent OF the most difficult as well
as the most evanescent OF all the arts, that OF
the actor.
Mr.. Crane has not only kept pace with the
progress of his profession, but with that Of the
world in general his life being full and we'll
rounded because OF the catholicity OF his inter
est in the affairs OF mankind. His private
life is as much of an inspiration as is
his public career. and the tribute given
him by Miss Bingham, in her delicate sllusion TO
this quality OF the man. is we'll deserved. Let
us wish with her that Mr.. Crane be spared 20 cell
citrate his full four-score years and ten. and he
may be assured that Omaha will give him as cor
dial welcome then as It did on Friday night
when he had just reached three-seore and ten.

aPeaoe, bud There !, No Peace. 2

The closing scenes OF the women's peace
conference at The Hague shows very plainly
that deep sentiment OF resentment still is
lodged in the breasts OF those whose countries
are at war. These women are not yet ready to
join in demand for peace at any price" They
want peace. but they want justice first, and for
this they will contend.
Might Is not right nor is personal interest
OF national pride the best OF guides for action,
but each is a potent factor in the determination
OF conduct. II would have been a surprising
spectacle had the Belgian and British representa-
tives at the conference given their unprotesting
assent to the resolutions as originally proposed.
The resolutions as finally adopted sound we'll,
but who is going 10 determine what is Justice"
and, when that has been settled, how Is 1t to be
maintained against those who refuse 70 accept it?
The problem Of restoring peace in Europe is
not so simple that II be disposed Of by a
short conference Of women. Matters far beyond
the reach Of words are involved in the struggle,
fundamentals that must be adjusted even for a
temporary truce. Into the crucible of the pres
ent war have been cast age-old grudges racial
differences and national jealousies whose roots
go back beyond history. II may be these will
fuse in the fierce heat OF the conflict, and from
the fiery Durging new Europe will arise, among
whose inhabitants will be found that concord of
thought and action essentially necessary for the
full good OF man. Some very able men, deep in
thought and wise in conclusion, hold that this
desirable result will be attained.
Whatever we may hope for as the outcome
Of the war, and It's ultimate influence on the
destiny of mankind. the conference Just con-
cluded at The Hague has only proved that ladies
as we'll az gentlemen may cry peace, but there
is no peace"

Two Men Who Have Made Good.

Having already commended two good men"
nominated at the primary to the favor Of those
who believe there Is room for improvement in
the city hall, The Bee takes II upon itself now to
commend also two men who have made good"
to the favor OF those who believe conscientious
and efficient service should be rewarded with
reelection. These two OF the present commits
sioners are Joseph b. Hummel and A. c. Kugel.
We believe the work Of no department Of the
city has evoked as general praise and ELECTED SO
little public complaint as the development and
Improvement Of our system of parks and boule-
wards under direction of Commissioner Hummel
He has something tangible 10 show for his eff
forts without any spectacular gallery play or
special appeal for sensational publicity.
Commissioner Kugel's service has been d.
vided between two departments first that of
street cleaning. and later that Of the police OF
HIS achievement as street commissioner there
are no two opinions. He organized the work
and put II on efficiency basis such as we had
never had. His administration OF the police
