Good roads will not come to Nebraska until the

of the benefit to be derived from road that is
of service SOS days in the year. That is the
problem briefly stated. II the convention here
will bring nearer an approach to the solution its

A Famous Railroad Cor

That railroad car somewhere in France,
wherein marshal of France read the fate of a
nation to German delegates seeking peace, is
likely to pass into history along with the APP
pomattox apple tree. 1t is an unforgettable
picture in its simplicity and directness. When
General Foch entered the Versailles conference
he was described as entering alone, without
staff or attendants. The picture in the railroad
car is of peace with this democratic straight
forwardness
The terms of the armistice are the essential
part of the negotiations. But simple physical
facts take more powerful hold upon peoples
imagination. And for the people of Germany,
as for the peoples of the world, now and in the
years to come, the unforgettabe fact will be
that German delegates, through the petition Of
their government, went to France to beg peace.
They who had been so arrogant crossed the line
blindfolded-a routine military precaution yet
not without its part in the historic picture.
Since Henry w, holy Roman emperor, went to
Canossa and waited in court yard Tor papal
dissolution there has been no more utter and
iumiliating act of submission by great power.
That scene in railroad car, with its import
and consequences, is the most wholesome event
IN the history of the German nation. May its
significance sink in and remain to warn and
humble.-New York Tribune.
