Omaha, March 24.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Since the character of your
news item with reference to my letter
to Mayor Dahlman leaves false i'm
preston upon the reader, kindly per-
nit me to state my position. If that
entire letter were printed. would fear
no false impression, but to take a
single sentence from 1t, such as the
suggestion quoted, leaves the impress
sion that l am opposed to President
Wilson's attitude.
l have repeatedly stated, both in
public and in letters to the press, that
l am heartily in sympathy with the
attitude of President Wilson. | was
with him in his attempts to keep us
out OF war, and / am as heartily in
sympathy with him now, since I am
satisfied that such a sound advocate
of peace as he is would not propose
such measures for protection and de-
tense of our rights upon the seas eX-
cept as very last measure. I am so
satisfied that he is right that I am also
convinced that an overwhelming ma
jority of the people are also with him.
1t was for that reason that l proposed
that this city hold mass meeting. the
expressed sentiment OF which would
show him that Omaha at least stands
soidly with him.
The first encouragement to that
hope of mine is In your reported state
ment by Mayor Dahlman that he is
opposed to a mass meeting for such
purpose. Can the mayor fear that the
people would send protest to Wash
ington? If so, think his fear is
groundless. But series of mass
meetings throughout the land, saying
to President Wilson, 1.-The American
people are with you to a man." would
be a great comfort to him at this, his
hour of trial. Furthermore, 1t is the
right of those who are expected to do
the fighting. If there is to be any, to
have voice in the affair
1 believe our people are with the
president, and desire that they have
chance to say so. L. ]. QU1NBY.
Excerpts to the "Sinister Influence"
Omaha, March 24.-To the Editor of
The Bee: The Bee recently contained
a statement by President Calvin of the
Union Pacific on the close Of the strike,
wherein he says:
The nation is to be congratulated
that the sinister influence which
sought to tie the hands Of our coun-
try through the means of tie-up
of the railroads has been defeated.
You will admit that it would be ex-
ceedingly interesting to have Mr.. CAL
vim explain just what sinister influ-
ence" he has reference to. Does he
mean to insinuate that the great rail-
road brotherhOods are in league with
some alien element which has sinister
designs against this country? If so,
or if he has any evidence pointing in
that direction, l think he should be
called upon to take the public into his
confidence. If he is not willing to do
that the brotherhoods should demand
an explanation from him.
Incidentally, it might also be of
great interest to have Mr.. Calvin ex-
plain just why it was that few
months ago an embargo was placed
by the railroads on eastbound traffic
of nearly all commodities, including
breadstuffs, while at the same time all
war material, or all products entering
into war material for export to the
allied countries, was freely accepted
and sent through on record time.

Remember the State Historical Society

Lincoln, March 24.--To the Editor
of The Bee: We note with interest a
letter from Harvard university alumni,
soliciting contributions of original
documents upon Nebraska history for
Harvard university library. This letter
for preservation of the sources of Ne
braska history breathes a laudable
purpose. We have no word of criti-
cism upon it. We simply have to add
by way of supplement that the people
of Nebraska themselves are not only
engaged in making Nebraska history,
but also in preserving it's sources for
the use of scholars, and that our own
scholars are from time to time or
ganizing the material into written
narratives, not only of history, but Of
fiction. poetry and the drama.
There is also in Nebraska a fit de-
pository for these original sources of
Nebraska history. The Nebraska State
Historical society, organized in 1878,
Is a state institution, located on the
state university campus, and has been
for nearly forty years gathering orig
inal sources of Nebraska history into
its library and museum, as follows:
l. Newspapers. Files Of Nebraska
newspapers from every county in the
state beginning with 1854. These in
