run shlpping-are, with few excep-
tons, what may be called Never
enders. Just as the President con-
suits Mr.. Gompers at Washington,
so do we take our trade unionists
into our national counsels. Ameri-
cans have often told me that So
ciety in Great Britain runs in
strata. To some extent that has
been very true, but your wonderful
observer of our life, Emerson, half
a century ago, got under the Eng
lsh skin and explained that the
strata are not fixed. The merchant
rises to the peerage. The agitator
becomes member Of Parliament.
The member becomes Cabinet Min
ister. The dissenting chapel grows
into free church. The peasant is
parish councillor. And all are now
levelled by conscription. You who
think you were acquainted with
England as she was five years ago
must study her all over again to-
day.
Where Every One
Aspires to Leadership
And may I ask, Are there no
strata in American society? I
merely put the question. I may be
wholly at fault, but / am not con-
sclous that the relations between
capital and labor are here more in
innate than in our Lancashire cot
ton trade or our mines, where for
years there has been collective bar
gaming on both sides. You regard
every wage Garner as a man who
has not risen to be an employer.
That sense that each American citi-
zen is born to command and not
merely to obey recalls Napoleon's
saying about the field marshal's
baton in every soldiers knapsack.
But we are small country. There
is not room for everybody to be
rich and masterful. Most of us
have to be obedient and poor. And
If we would avoid disappointment

ure because others have risen to the
top-we have to remember that the
most utterly dignified of all men,
tor our sakes, Himself became poor
IN order that, in his poverty, we
might become rich
Labor and the
Sermon on the Mount
A wealth that is not material
must replace the material wealth
that we have lost or failed either
to win or to inherit This is the
wealth that all the world may share
at the great labor conferences which
so profoundly influence the life and
thought of Britain and her inme-
date neighbors. While your
churches invite US, who are grateful
visitors, to speak to immense con-
gregations about the war and what
the war means, which is indeed a
subject worthy of all reverent at
tention, being nothing less than the
crucitiXion of humanity on a cross
Of military espotism-while this is
going on in your churches our
labor conferences are filled with al
lusions to the Sermon on the
Mount, with hopes of new king
dom of happiness, brotherhood of
nations, a league of men, deter
mined to enforce peace against all
who would break the peace. Hence
the war aims of the British Labor
party-strong, farreaching, broad
as the utterances Of President Will
son himself. Hence the readiness
of our men, be they called patriots
or pacifists, to share with your
American soldiers the unmarked,
yet sacred, grave in what is now

REPUBLICANS GET
READY FOR WORK
OF FALL CAMP PAIGN
Sloan Not Inclined to Act on
Suggestion Of Democrats
and Get Out of
Race.
trrom a staff cOrrespondent.l

Lincoln, Neb.. June 2-tSpecial.)-
Whether it was the loyalty conven-
ton and the address of Senator Len
root that is responsible for the marked
republican sentiment existing in this
locality, is not known, but the fact
remains that republicans have taken
on old time activity. At a luncheon
held at the Lindell hotel yesterday, a
"McKelvie for Governor" club was
organized, officers selected and about
Is republicans had joyful and inspir-
ing meeting.
Lieutenant Governor McKelvie was
not present, having left Friday for
Chicago, but it is understood that he
will not seriously object to the for
nation of like clubs boosting him for
the republican nomination for gov
ernor.
Ignores Democratic Advice.
The political situation otherwise ap-
pears to be about the same. Congress
man Sloan has not followed the ad-
vice of the democrats to withdraw
from the race for the republican
nomination for the United States sem
ate. They had proclaimed through the
local and Omaha democratic papers
that the Geneva man was going to
resign, but it is said that Mr.. Sloan
had not been consulted in the matter
and declines to follow their advice. {
So far the democratic situation on
the matter of candidate for the
gubernatorial nomination of that party
remains unchanged. 1t is known that
Charlie Bryan is waiting for the time
to come to press his claims for that
honor, empty though it may eventually
turn out to be.
Just what Governor Neville will do
is still locked up in the breast of the
man of silence. Newspaper-men have
time and again opportuned the gov
ernor 10 come out Of il and enlighten
an anxiously waiting public as to his
intentions.
Even the pictures of former gov
ernors hanging on the walls of the
executive offices at times show almost
as much of an incentive to take the
public into their confidence as does
Governor Neville himself, and some
Of them more so.
The picture of Governor Morehead
looks out upon the silent room as
much as to say, see what | have
done" while that of Governor Aid
rich appears to want to repeat the
words of his successor. There is nc
question but that the picture of Gov
ernor Shallenbergex would tell what
the future has in store for him, if it
only was sure it knew, while that of
Governor Sheldon has the far away
look which indicates that he doesn't
care continental who runs for gov
ernor.
