FATHERHOOD
Often at night bend above
The little bed, where, wrapped in Sleep
The little lad of all my love
Smiles the dreams about him creep;
His baby face is full of JOY
His little sorrows all at rest
l softly cry: my Little Boy
And ache to fold him to my breast.
In daylight he about
All carelessly from fun to fun,
With bounding riot leaping shout,
And, OH so many mischiefs done!
I sometimes say, fathers will,
"How youngster be so bad?"
At night whisper with thrill
II love you so, my little lad!"
AS go up and down the years
stumble blindly here and there;
And drink cup of bitter tears
And mar joy that should be fair
And will the gentle God above
Bend DER my sleep with grace divine.
And whisper with boInd1ess love;
II love you Little Lad of Mine"

Delay World Peace.

San Francisco, Cal, Feb. 1o.-
THE gentlemen in the senate who
are setting out to defeat this league
of nations are those / would not
trust over night" former President
William H. Taft said here today at
a luncheon in his honor by civic or
ganizations as a part of the pro-
gram of the Pacihc Coast Congress
of the League to Enforce Peace,
They are citing the constitution
as all argument against il" contin-
ued Mr.. Taft. Il revere and wor-
ship that great instrument and it is
new story to me if the constitu-
ton prevents its people from play
ing their part in bringing peace and
order and happiness to ourselves
and the other peoples of the world.
This is not a political question,
God forbid! I am glad President
Wilson went to Europe. because he
went bearing a promise of league
of nations.
THE application at this time of
the doctrine of avoiding entangle-
Cling alliances is reactionary to the
extent of delaying world peace 100
years.
THE question at this time is
whether the whole great plan of the
league of nations is to be defeated
because we can't get a two-thirds
majority of our senate for its rati-
fieation."

1t is unfair to him to make a

To Stop Bootlegging.
Dan Mcleod of Colfax, intro
ducer of the bill, explained the pur-
pose of the measure TO DO away
with the "bootlegging Of cigarets
and substitute a workable lava
law that would be respected by
public sentiment and therefore en-
forceable."
Thomas L. Briggs of Antioch
said he had been smoking cigarets
for 80 years and it had not hurt
him; he had just successfully passed
an examination for a $1,000 life in
surance policy. He smoked ciga-
rets and would continue to smoke
them. you did not obect," said

Berka For Bill.
Redman of Kimball supported the
Mcleod bill for the reason that it
would have public respect because
it would be a consistent measure
and therefore enforceable.
Rerka of Douglas favored the Nc
Leod bill, but predicted the time
would come when the ladies of Ne
braska would back a law that would
prohibit the use of tobacco in any
form. 1t was Wildman of York who
moved it be indefinitely postponed.
These who spoke in opposition were
particularly violent in their words.
Sturdevant of Atkinson, exclaimed:
"The cigaret is the damndest thing
that was ever puffed in your
face. don't object to a 15-cent
cigar with its sweet aroma, but |
am against the cigaret."
Hoover of Richardson, said he
never used tobacco in his life and
was opposed to any one else using
the weed.
Maurer OF cage declared that he
would rather see his son drink
whisky than smoke cigarets.
Views of Members.
Matthewson of Shickley said that
although the boys who we're soldiers
over there learned to play poker,
shoot craps, drink whisky and things
like that on the fighting front he
did not want them to come back
home and ruin the children of the
country by teaching them to smoke
Wildman of York, Larsen of
Douglas, and Lampert of Saunders,
all contended that the sole purpose
of giving the soldiers in the late war
eigarets was the same as it was for
giving them rations of liquor to
boost their courage.
The motion to kill it was in turn
killed by substitute motion to re-
port progress. This was carried by

Gpirit of militarism that has been
soaked into the people.
Kaiser Not Courageous.
Kaiser Wilhelm was drawn into it
himself, perhaps against his own
sentiments. He was not warlike; he
was not even courageous, and |
know that he did struggle TO con-
quer his personal feelings before he
could be brought to sign the mob
ilization decree.
But once war was declared, it
was lie who kept alive the national
hatred. 1t was he who used methods
of warfare for which the world will
never pardon him. Believe me. it
causes terrible pain to have to ad-
init this"
When the interview pointed out to
Harden that no protests against
Germany's methods ever were raised
in Germany, Harden declared that
even now not only the actors in
the tradegy hesitate to admit Ger
many's guilt, but that persons who
have lost brother or husband
in the war desire to cling to the be-
lief that they have suffered their
share of bereavement in a good
cause; they think it would take away
from the dignity of their grief if
they recognized that the cause for
which their country fought was
criminal.

if she had Great Britain would not

Washington, Feb. lG.-Nigorous
criticism of the proposed constitu-

voiced today in both houses of con-
gress.
Speaking for three hours before
crowded galleries, Senator Poin-

precipitated a discussion in the
senate which embraced other sub
jects and consumed practically the
entire session. However there was
no formal reply to the Washington
senator from the democratic side.
Discussion in the house was un-
expected and was not general. Just
as the members were settling down
for a night session, Representative
Fess of Ohio, chairman of the re-
publican congressional campaign
committee, delivered a carefully
prepared adress in which he took
up the constitution section by sec
tion and denounced the whole a.

United States and containing

in congress since the constitution
of the league was published and
since President Wilson. requested
that discussion be postponed until
he could confer with members of
the senate and house foreign af-
fairs committees at the White
House next week.

of the league plan, asking
Mr. Taft whether he would support
an amendment to the tentative con-

Resumption of attack on the
league tomorrow in the senate is in
prospect. Senator Borah is ready TO
speak but may defer his address un-
til Friday. Senator Cummins of
