CAPITAL 2 FACE "DRY" CHARGES' LEDNARDWDDDVOT SURPRISES Pershing Failure in Nebraska Puzzles.. NEW JERSEY NET FIGHT Chicago rial Labor Journal's Edito Pleases Managers of Major-General. OREGO.NIAX NEWS ' BUREAU Washington. April 21. Political ob servers in Washington found nothing surprising In the outcome of the re publican primaries in Nebraska yes terday except the fact that Leonard Wood ran second. It had been cal culated that Hiram Johnson would lead, as he did, and that General Per shing, on the score of long association with the stafae, would get second place. It was found, difficult to analyze the democratic outcome in Nebraska. To say that the defeat of the Bryan delegates at large that Is, if final returns bear out their defeat was a victory for the national administra tion, cannot be stated as a positive truth. The prohibition- issue was raised against Senator Hitchcock, whose delegates appear to have been success ul. and the senator seems to have acquired his best lead in sections of the state where prohibition is not popular. Bryan May Cover' Meeting. Colonel Bryan, before leaving Washington some time ago, applied for a seat )n the press section, from which he will report the San Fran cisco convention for a newspaper syndicate in event of his defeat for delegate. In any event he will have a neat in the convention, but as an ac credited newspaper correspondent he cannot participate in the proceedings. It was said today1 that he would be assured of a proxy to the convention In case of defeat in his own state and will thereby find the means of getting his views before the gathering. Although the results In Georgia were anti-administration, the friends of President Wilson found satisfac tion in Attorney-General , Palmer's having received a plurality of the votes. The big surprise . was the vote polled by Thomas E. Watson, whose supporters were understood all along to be going to Senator Smith as the surest way of defeating Palmer, the administration candidate, Watson Anti-WUaM. Watson was bitterly anti-Wilson and opposed all of the principal war legislation, going so far in his oppo sition that the postoffice department found it necessary during the war to suppress his publication, "The Jef fersonian." The delegates on whom returns had been received at a late hour today stood: Palmer, 132; Smith, 114, and Watson, 110. By combining, as It Is easy to do under ;the Georgia law, it will be seen that Smith and Watson can name anti-administration dele gates to the national convention, but it was Qoubted here .today that Smith, who is a candidate' for re-election to the senate, will care to combine with auch elements as Watson represents. Wooi Mnnnarera PleaneeV-' Leonard Wood's managers were pleased today at a strong editorial indorsement given their candidate in the "Chicago Unionist," leading labor organ of the'middle west. Comment ing on General Wood's statement that labor is being attacked from within, the editorial says: - . "General Wood, you have put your finger on the pulse of the situation. Labor is menaced by foes from with in. You are right in protesting against class legislation. Labor de sires no legislation of class. Labor wants Justice; Justice, to itself. So, General Wood, more power to you. Lining up presidential possibilities Bide by side and considering what each has to offer labor, we believe 'that General Wood's tribute to our cause will be labor's need justice." The six delegates chosen In Dela ware yesterday were conceded to Wood today by Hiram Johnson s man- , agers. New Jersy is now the battleground for one of the hardest battles of the campaign, which appears to be a con test between Wood and Johnson. Both sides are claiming the state's delega tion, with Wood a favorite in the betting. PAPER FAMINE PREDICTED Fi P. GLASS URGES GREATER NEWS PRINT ECONOMY.- Publishers Blamed for Acnte Short age Through Policy of Ad-- . vertising. NEW YORK, April 21. Franklin P. Glass, president of the- American Newspaper Publishers' association, gave warning at the annual conven tion today that newspaper publish ers must make further conservation of news print 'paper If they were not to have a worse time next fall and winter than they had in the last six months. "It cannot be denied." he said, "that the publishers themselves are respon sible for yielding to the great de mand for paper, and that they had increased this skyrocket auction mar ket by bidding against each other, by wilingness to take the volume of ad . vertising offered, no matter how small the margin of profit." At the luncheon of the bureau of advertising of the association E. T. Meredith, secretary of agriculture, made a plea for greater publicity lor farmers, saying that a bill inim ui co agriculture should have the spotlight of publicity turned on it just as a vicious franchise should have. The secretary said that many times the farmers are not in a position to get their views fully before the pub lie and could not therefore protect their interests effectively.

' Friends of Borah declared, however, that an effort was being made to de feat him for delegate in order to deny him the privilege of voicing In the national convention his views on the league of nations.
