Hears No General
Demand for Fathers
Day in Nebraska
lFrom a sad correspondentl

LINCOLN, oct. 14-(Special) -Gov-

a general demand for the observance OF
a fathers day in Nebraska and has de-
clincd to issue a proclamation setting
aside the fourth Sunday in October. as
requested In a petition from Hastings
We men.
Here is what the governor has to say
about &:
have some petitions asking me to
designate a day to be known as fathers
dav.
| have high regard for men who
stand for good things morally, intellect
ually end patriotically, and 4 do not be,
lieve that l underestimate the value OK
good citizenship. Yet L feel that there Is
such a thing as having too many hoii-
like the citizens who is endeavoring
every day in the year to be or oenetit
to society by helping to raise the stand
ard of citizenship. And l feel that II We
try TO do some good eacn day to better
the condition Of the people, IL would pc
better than TO go TO the extreme
poses. l cannot see wherein any good
would come of designating day called
fathers day" and at the present time
l shall issue no proclamation for that
/ know that the signers of the petitions
are sincere and DESTROYS of doing some
thing creditable to society, but find that
there are so many holidays and special
days that the people are losing respect
for them. And unless some very special
attention is given to these days they are
useless. just as some OF the laws that
are placed on our statute books witch
are violated every day. have a tendency
to lower the respect OF the people Tor oar
laws.
| question whether there Is sufficient
sentiment for a fathers day to be uni
versally observed. Hence my reason for
refusing TO issue a proclamation.

A. M. Trimble, assistant adjutant general
OF the Nebraska Grand Army of the Re

encampment at Washington considerably
wrought up over the lack of feeling shown
by the citizens of the national capital to-
ward the veterans.
Washington is a great place." but It
did not warm up as Il should" said Cap
tain Trimble. I'm the parade, in which
10000 veterans marched. nearly half a
million people lined the course, yet there
was a notable lack OF cheering and the
crowds were cold and undemonstrative in
comparison with the warm greeting given
in Detroit year ago.
Omaha could have had the next en-
campment, but the Commercial club of
that city wouldn't extend an invitation or
do anything to secure IT," said Captain
Trlmble. This was disappointing to the
Nebraska veterans, who would have been
glad to have had the gathering in Omaha.
Instead It will go to Kansas CITY"
Captain Trimble attributed the coidness
in Washington to the fact that the south

the cooperation of the trained naval officers. will give wonderful aid in bringing about a golden medium for the national defense Their connec- ton with the naval side of the pro- gram does not necessarily mean that the land forces are to be neglected. The submarine and the aeroplane are two of the most important factors connected with any defensive move ment, and these two, being more natural adjuncts to the navy, special stress will be laid upon bringing them up to the highest standard. What aeroplane. or hydroplane, must be of benefit to the army, as practically the same machines are used by the two arms. The speech of President Will son to the advisory council struck a responsive chord in the hearts of the American, people. In committing himself to strong and definite policy he has all the more endeared himself to those true Americans who care more for the welfare of the nation than for the sickly sentimentalism of the pronounced peace-at-any-p price policy some statesmen would force upon the Administration. Having enjoyed more than one hundred years of untram- meled liberty, the people of the United States have grown to look upon their freedom as the greatest treasure the human heart can enjoy. And yet, they are a peace-loving people. They have no ambition to go out and conquer the world. But they will allow no one to come here and conquer this land. That is why every word President Wilson utters concerning an adequate preparedness hits straight to the mark. Congress will do well to ponder over the Presidents message on preparedness. It will do well to appropriate enough funds for better army and navy. If the United States

and evidently considers itself once again a bulwark of republicanism, warns republicans that they have no easy road to travel. Against one de- fusion it gives especial caution:
 "The theory that a number of party magicians can rub the full dinner pail end summon the fairy success is beautiful, but not reliable.'
 This is pretty good text for some of the old tory organs and o1d-time tory politicians who apparently rely on this old-time magic for the main stay of their cause. After a long enough time the parrot stuff runs out with thinking voters. Too many men know the lie that is told about pros perity. Too many men are able to see that the whole world rocks on it's foundations, and the matter of pros perity is not to be decided by one rarty or the other. It is a good time to stop and think about using the old crooked crutch.
