Preparedness.

Along with the proof of our character
as a nation must go the proof OF our
power to play the part that ~legitimateiy
belongs to us. The people Of the United
States love peace. They respect the
rights and covet the friendship OF all
other nations. They desire neither any
additional territory nor n
which will not be peacefully gained by
their skill, their industry or their enter
prise; but they insist upon having alb
solute freedom of national life and policy,
and feel that they owe it to themselves
| and to the role of spirited independence,
which it Is their sole ambition to play,
that they should render themselves Sc
| cure against the hazard Of interference
from any quarter and should be able 70
protect their rights upon the seas or IN
any part Of the world. We, therefore,
favor the maintenance of an army fully
| adequate to the requirements of order,
of safety n of the protection of the
nations rights. the fullest development
of modern methods of sea-coast defense
and the maintenance of an adequate re-
serve of citizens trained to arm ano
prepared to safeguard the people and the
territory Of the United States against any
danger of hostile action which may I'M
expectedly arise, and a fixed policy fol
the continuous development OF a navy
worthy to support the great tradi'
tions of the United States.

Waterways and Flood Control.

We renew the declaration in our last
two platforms relating to the development
of our waterways. We hold that the con-

development and improvement of our
harbors and inland waterways with econo
my and efficiency so as to permit their
navigation by vessels of standard draft.
1t is the policy of the Democratic party
to enact all avs necessary for the speedy

by the Democratic party in its last ma
tional platform, and we reiterate our IN
dorsement of the purpose of ultimate In
dependence for the Philippine Islands,
expressed in the preamble of that meas

Following the election OF Officers Dean
Paul Martin of Creighton University Col
lege OF Law spoke on the desirability Of
a higher standard requirement for en-
trance into the law schools. He declared
the law profession, as everything else,
must either progress or go backward.
and that a higher standard is therefore
necessary in view Of the higher standards
required constantly in the other profess
sions. He pointed out that the legal pro-
fession was long counted one of the
learned professions, but held that unless
the standard is raised it cannot long be
so rated.
FavOrs High school standard.
He held that the equivalent OF a four
year high school course for entrance into
n law school Is not too much and that
the requirement of some college work
before admission to the bar is not unrea-
sonable.
II know that Abraham Lincoln is held
up as a horrible example of a man that
would be excluded under the proposed
higher standards" said the speaker. but
even Lincoln, believe. would not have
been excluded by the clause requiring the
equivalent of a high school education; and
even IL he were. the exception should moi
be made to outweigh the general rule
He called attention to the fact that ir
the better dental schools and the medcs
schools a four-year high school course IL
required for entrance. and that in most o.
them a year or two of preliminary colleg,
work is required.
''It must be evident then" he said, "tC
the advocates OF the lower standard tina
the legal profession will suffer in com
parlson with the dental and medical pro
fession in the matter OF the standard o
learning. II is hard to justify the low
standard today"

CHOOSING BISHOP
is DONE SIMPLY
Legal Formalities Connected with
the Selection Of Name to
Present to Rome.
WHEN sCANNELL WAS CHOSEN

Interest felt in the probable choice
Of a successor to Bishop Scannell as
head Of the diocese OF Omaha is al
ready expressed, but II will likely be
some time before the choice is finally
determined.
The regular procedure OF choosing
bishop for a vacant see OF the Cath
Ollie church in the United States is a
very simple one. Two local bodies,
the archbishops and bishops OF the
province and the consulters and ire
movable rectors Of the diocese, meet
on a designated day, each select three
names, indicating preference by the
order of the names, and these to-
gether are submitted by the metro
politan TO Rome for final action.
Usually when both bodies agree on
the first named person their choice
is approved at Rome. and the APP
pointment follows quickly. In case
the local bodies are divided in their
preferences. selection is delayed
pending further inquiry into the
merits Of the priests whose names
are submitted.
who VIII Take Part.
The province Of Dubuque. which in
cludes the diocese OF Omaha, comprises
the diocese OF Dubuque, where Archbishop
James ]. Keene. the metropolitan, re.
sides; the diocese of Davenport. Bishop
James Davis; the diocese OF Des Moines,
Bishop A. Bowling; Sioux City. Bishop
Phillip r. Garrigan; lincoln, Bishop John
H. Then; Kearney. Bishop J. A. Duffy,
and the diocese OF Cheyenne. Bishop p. A.
McGovem.
The consulters Of the diocese are: Mon
signor Calaneri. chancellor OF the diocese;
Father Jeanette OF ST. Joseph's hospital.
Father vranek OF ST. wenceslaus' parish,
Father Mccarthy OF st. Peters, Father
Aherne of St. Agnes, South Side, and
Father Wolf OF Grand Island. In addi-
ton to the above. the following irremov-
able rectors participate in the nomina-
lions: Father Cassidy OF o'Neill. Father
schnuttesgen OF Harrington, Father Helms
OF Grand Island. Father Peits OF West
Point and Father Felix Mccarthy Of
jackson.
when scannelI Was Chosen.
II is instructive 70 recall in this con-
nection the interesting fact that the pro-
motion Of Bishop scannell from the do
cese Of Concordia, Kan, TO that of
Omaha was primarily due to the omission
of vital part of the above procedure.
At the time of the death OF Bishop James
o'Connor the diocese of Omaha was part
OF the province of st. Louis. OF which
Archbishop Kenrick was metropolitan.
When the the latter called the bishops OF
the province together TO name candidates
for the vacant see. the consulters OF the
diocese were not notified 20 meet, as re-
CURED by law. Subsequently the consult.
ers assembled in Omaha and forwarded
TO Rome a protest against the action Of
the bishops as irregular and unlawful
Rome sustained the protest and the St
Louis priest named for the honor lost out
