BRYAN FOR SENATOR

If William J. Bryan should become candidate for United States Senator from Nebraska there will be many people of all sections of the United States whc wu wish him success. However one may view the recen, resignation o Mr. Bryan there can be none sue cesstuy to question his great abilities. his sincerity his devotion o the interests the his democ raey or his patriotism. That the historians of the future win give him place with the great men of the Nation who narrowly missed the Presidency must al so be admitted The Washington Star recently said that he must be classed history with Webster Clay Douglas and Blaine an of whom had devoted follow CTS a Of whom were aspirans for the Presidency, all of whom were party candidates that office and an of whom probably could have been Presidents they had been nominated at the right times The Star might have added Calhoun and Cass to the list although Calhoun, always considered in connection with the Presidency and twice elected yce-President never nominated for the first place.
 It would be fitting that one Of Mr. Bryan's attain meuts should take his place in the greatest lawmak ing body in which Webster and Clay and Douglas and Calhoun made the records that left their impress upon the history of the Nation For more than dozen years Senator in Nebrasa-and there had probably not been

 However it is doubtful whether if Mr. Bryan will seek the Senate The dull routine is not agreeable o him. The work he likes best is that of crusader-a tribune whose connection with the people is direct and he can find that better by resumng his tours over the country as lecturer and political speaker Much of the work of successful United States Senator these days of hard detail work in the office library and committee rooms It is not so often as was once upon time that Senators debate questions involving great fundamental principles Those problems are dis cussed the musings and in the States where most of them first rise Issues come frosh from the people in this day and reach Congress later rather than to the people from Congress- in the days of Calhoun Web ster. Clay and Benton Bryans sphere is down among the people where the issues being made rather than in the places where they working out the details after the people have decided.

WILSON pAY

The enthusiasm displayed at Seattle. Tacoma, Portland and other cities in their celebration Of "wil- son Day" to show the loyalty of the people to the President and his foreign policy Is worthy of more tbon passing consideration. The evidence is complete that the people or tbe United States supporting their President is further worthy of note shat Che demon strations the genuine enthusiasm that was shown tana disaster and the submarine warfare of Germany It is due to the more than two years Of earnest in. dustrlous and patriotic work and resulting achievement

WAR lNvADEs EDEN

The battle-ground iu Egypt where the British forces are opposing the Turks is the site which rchaelo- eists claim to be the spot where tho Garden Of Eden existed countless cen turies ago The exact position lies between Annah and Hitt on the up. per Eupharates. which is now the center ot the Turko-British struggle. The former home of Adam and Eve resounds to the roar of howitzers and the tramp of armed men,
 Many sacred scenes of Bible his tory are involved in the British cam paign against the Turks in Palestine One of the most sacred lakes in Che world, the sea Of Gennesaret or the Lake of Galilee is in the war zone. lt lies not far from Nazareth. and it was from it that St. Peter and the fishermen of the country gathered their livlihood Here was also the Capernaum, famous for its miracle rec ords.
 The hills around Nazareth are now fortified by the Turks and the sac red ruins of Capernaum are threaten- ed by mines and air bombs.
 The sites where Moses received the Ten Commandments and an the stir ring events of the Israelite wander ings in the wilderness occurred have seen the horrors of war The Turks are conducting their campaign with utter indifference to the claims of sal cred buildings and territory to be spared from destruction. The village or Gaza, where samson carried away the Temple pillars and the town ofI Hebron, where Abraham was buried lie in the path of the rotreating Turk ish army, and 1t is doubtful whether the soldiers will refrain from destroy ing these ancient sites which are re- yered by Christians all over the world

WOODROW WILSON OUR
 PRESIDENT
lSnnttIe snn.l

Itwere well tliat Che city of Seattle
 should lay aside the cares. perplexities and anxieties of these strenuous times
 for an hour today and do honor tc
 the great man who occupies the high
 est position within the gift of his feI
 low countrymen. In country where popular government maingains, espe cially where party politics play such
 an important part in the national life, there Is grave danger chat the
 people should overlook the honor that
 is inherent in the Presidency The
 danger is the greater because of the
 freedom with which the American
 press criticise those who hold this
 honorable position. We are prone to
 come to think Of Che occupant of
 the Presidents chair as a kind of DO. litical football to be kicked around at
 our pleasure. rather than as digni-
 fled man occupying an exceedingly dif-
 fcult position whose heart is intent
 on doing that which will be for the
 best interests of his country.
 We have been exceedingly fortu-
 nate in the men who have filled this high and responsible position. From George Washington, our first Presi. dent, down to the present occupant of the White House, there has not been a single man against whose hon. or and integrity a single word could be justly spoken. With remarkable
 uniformity they have all devoted themselves with singleness of pur- pose to the grave duties which devolY- ed uopn them While some have oy- ershadowed others in native ability as great national leaders, OH have shown feryent devotion to the oDli- gations of their position, and the Am jean people have cause to be justly proud of their records and achieve ments.
 Of all these none has occupied al higher position in the confidence and esteem of his countrymen than does Woodrow Wilson. In spite of the de- spicable efforts of cheap politicians of the opposing party, echoed and re- echoed by a blindly partisan press, to belittle his efforts and hinder him in his great work. he has pursued the even tenor of his way, giving the best that is in him to the execution Of the difficult tasks which have been his rom day to day. No President since Lincoln has had 50 many difficult problems to contend with: and yet, 1 murmu or complaint, with out oatentation or buster, he has re- malned at his post of duty and given an his time and ability to the cause | of the common people and the solu- lion of their problems As a construc- tive leader. he has been able to ac- ,omplish more during the three years of his administration than any man who has ever occupied the position be- lore him. While a great deal of this effort has been along ines which tended to upset the estab- ished order and. therefore, caused an unsettled condition of affairs, for the inc being. there is no doubt in the hind of any honest man but what he ias endeavored to do what he believed | O be in the interest of the great 'masses who constitute tic major ty of our American citizenry
