international circles here Wednesday.
Titled "GermanyS national awak-

It was given q sudden importance
through the declaration of the Jour-
nal Des Nations that numerous Ger

After stating there was no instance
In the world of a country being torn

Railroad attorneys. meeting in st.

dressed appeals for action.
The governors OF Minnesota, South

the suggestion. Governor Cooney was
not in Montana but the attorney gen

general Of Nebraska.
Governor c. w. Bryan Of Nebraska
