actions of the German Americans as
a class are truly laudable since the
declaration Of war by the United States
government against Germany: Their
united expressions of loyalty to their
adopted country. supplemented by ac-
tons that speak louder than words, are
rapidly restoring the American pub
lies confidence in them that was
shaken before actual hostility was de-
clared.
1t would be surprising If there were
no Germans in this country who are
plotting against it, but these are in the
minority to such a degree that their
efforts will amount to little. That every
loyal American should promptly re-
port to the proper authority all per-
sons whose words or actions convince
him that they are disloyal is an unde-
niable duty. The position of aliens in
this country whose respective govern
ments are at war with ours is far from
enviable. Whichever side they SYM
pathize with they probably have loved
ones on the opposing side, while a
position of strict neutrality would be
calling to men with iron in their blood.
For this reason the feelings Of aliens
who have espoused our cause should
be respected as far as possible.

Richmond and His Fellow Democrats.

Having loved and lost our own Henry Clay
Richmond declines to be consoled by any philos-
ophy or poetry; the fact that the bitter cup Is
pressed to his lips by his fellow democrats doesn't
make it taste any better He wanted to build a
new state house for Nebraska, and house roll No.
], intended to bring about this desirable result,
bears his name as author.
Through all the weary watches of the long
est session Of Nebraska legislature on record,
Henry Clay Richmond nursed that bill. He
guided its faltering steps as timdly it approached
the house committee, and, as father leads his
child he led 1t through the various vicsstudes
and uncertainties that surround big appropria-
ton bill on its journey through the mazes and
jungles of legislature Finally he brought it
out into the sunlit heights of open enactment and
saw 1t passed by good safe vote in both houses
And. then something happened. Henry Clay
Richmond doesn't exactly know what it was, bat
he does know what effect it had Between pas
sage and signature Bermuda high developed,
and while the fond father of the new state house
measure was maneuvering to avoid that obstacle,
range of low visibility set in and from some
where out of the vastly deep torpedo was
launched. Not even the periscope OF the devastat-
ing U-boat was seen, nor the wake Of the torpedo;
but that isn't much consolation. The new capitol
bill was hit amidshps, just abaft the boilers and
Henry Clay Richmond refuses to be comforted
His personal opinion of some Of his fellow mem
bers of the late house is definite enough, but too
entirely picturesque for publication.
In good time the republicans will build state
house for Nebraska, Just as they will do lot of
things the democrats left undone

Nebraska Press Comment

Tekamah Herald: The talk of calling an extra
session of the legislature would be a calamity.
Don't do it. governor One session of that senate
is all the people can stand. 1t is the worst thing
ever inflicted on this great state of corn, cattle,
hogs and alfalfa
Plattsmouth Journal: Edgar Howard seems
to have gotten in bad with the senate members.
The lieutenant governor should take into consd-
GRAFTON that there arc just as smart men in the
senate as he is, and he shouldn't try to run every
thing to his own notion That's where the trouble
comes in.
Ord Quiz; Among the-unjust and dcplorable
things done by the present legislature is the pas
sage of bill allowing state funds to be placed
in state banks which bid the highest for the
money. 1t allows state funds to be deposited
in state banks up to the amount of their capital
stock and of course, the bank guarantee law is
held to make these banks responsible for the
funds. Without the bank guarantee law the state
would not be safe in permitting such large de-
posts in individual banks; neither would the in
discriminate deposits be safe without the bank
guarantee law The evil of the bank guarantee
law is thus made greater than ever. Banks with
no responsibility outside of its capital stock are
on account of the bank guarantee law, just as
sound as the really sound banks for the tottering
bank is by this law held up by the sound banks.
In other words, the bank guarantee law. makes
the sound banks stand back of the worthless bank.
The theory is vicious and the practice is bad
There is too much incentive for cheap-skate bank
ing and the rapdity of their establishment in all
parts of the state is one of the evidences of it.
There is no more justice in making sound bank
responsible for the failure of a dishonest COM
petitor than there would be to make sound bust
ness firms responsible for the debts of their bank
rupt competitors.

Omaha, April 25.-To the Editor Of
The Bee: / have often wondered who
wrote your editorials on Irish ques-
lions. l would be willing to wager
that he is English. The editorial of
the 23d on Great Britain's Willful
Men" is a case in point. The writer
quotes a great number of English pa
pers to the effect that Ireland should
have home rule, and then naively adds
that Americans will probably get tired
of both sides of this question.
Is it possible that the gentleman is
anticipating? Ireland is entitled as
much to self-government as Belgium
or, Poland, and the American who is
interested in the freedom of one will
be just as interested in the freedom
of the other The only one who will
feel like calling a plague on both
their houses is the one who is inter
ested in the freedom of small national
tiles only in as much as this freedom
suits England.

How to Meet Ruthless Warfare.


South Side. Omaha, April 25.-To
the Editor of The Bee: Were | in a
position to make suggestions to those
who are managing the campaign for
the English and French In the present
war, l would suggest that they place
some German prisoners on every ship
that leaves any English or French
port, even including the fishing
smacks, and then when they would
be attacked by the German pirates
with their submarines the Germans
would be in danger of drowning their
own men whenever they torpedo any
vessel of the allies. Since the Ger
man government does not seem to
want to carry on civilized warfare,
If there is such thing as civilized
warfare, they ought to be met with
some of their own methods. Since
the German pirates seem to take spe-
cial delight in sinking hospital and
relief ships as well as fishing smacks
and ships with women and babies on,
they ought to be met with the chance
to drown some Of their own people
as they did a few days ago when they
sunk hospital ship.
