MCNISH QUITS
THE REPUBLICAN
COMMITTEE
Resigns as Head of Repubican State
Committee Can't Support
Sutton.
ASSOCIATE EXPLAINS ACTION
Strenuous Effort Made to Have
Him Reconsider Sutton
is Silent.
Jesse C. McNish has resigned the
chairmanship of the republican state
committee because of his decision that
pretended support of A. L. Sutton, the
party's nominee for governor, would
he sheer hypocrisy on his part.
Mr. McNish's resignation was sent
yesterday morning to Vice Chairman
Bach at Lincoln. At the same
time Mr. Sutton was notified and he
presented the matter to the rest of the
state candidates, who had been called
to meet at his office yesterday
afternoon. During the afternoon
strenuous efforts were made to have
McNish reconsider, political and per
sonal friends out in the state being
besought to telephone him. He stood
pat.
Just what led up to the resignation
was something that Mr. McNish would
not discuss. He admitted that until a
very few days ago he had planned to
move to Lincoln and devote ninety
days of his time to the campaign.
R. V. McGrew, McNish's close per
sonal associate, was not so reticent. In
announcing McNish's resignation, he
said:
"McNish decided that in fairness to
the rest of the ticket he could not
undertake to manage a campaign for
the whole ticket when his pretended
support of its head, Mr. Sutton, would
be hypocrisy."
The meeting of candidates at Judge
Sutton's ofice had broken up before
McNish's resignation was announced.
Judge Sutton and other candidates
said that they had done nothing save
discuss the recommendation of a sec
retary of the state committee and
other general campaign matters.
When Sutton was asked about Mc
Nish's resignation he at first said that
McNish had not resigned.
Sutton Denies Report.
When told that McNish had made
the matter public Sutton still denied
that the mater had been discussed
at the candidates' meeting. Finally,
when he was told that other candi
dates, more frank than he, had ad
mited that it was the principal topic
of their session, he took refuge be
hind the formula, "I have nothing to
say."
A. O. Thomas, candidate for state
superintendent, said that he regretted
that McNish had seen fit to resign
and had sought in vain to have him
reconsider it.
R. W. Devoe, candidate for attorney
general; Addison Wait, candidate for
secretary of state, and John L. Ken
nedy, candidate for United States sen
ator, would not comment beyond say
ing that the candidates had taken no
action toward recommending to the
state committee a successor to Mc
Nish. Besides these, Fred Beckmann,
candidate for land commissioner; G.
W. Marsh, candidate for auditor, and
H. P. Shumway, candidate for lieuten
ant governor, attended the conference
McNish Unsatisfactory.
McNish was elected chairman of the
state committee at a meeting held
after the state convention at Lincoln
July 25. He was authorized to select
a secretary of the committee and an
executive committee. Sutton had op
posed McNish's selection and had en
deavored to line up the state candi
dates behind some other man. They
had not agreed upon anyone, how
ever, when the committee met and
selected McNish, without asking their
advice.
Since that time Sutton has led a
movement of candidates to force Mc
Nish to select a secretary of the can
didates' choosing. The candidates
were practically unanimous upon Walt
Minor, former state auditor, of Lin
coln. McNish refused to accept Minor,
but offered to appoint one of three
men to be suggested by the candi
dates.
Selection of a chairman to succed
McNish is up to the state committee.
It is expected that Vice Chairman1
Beach will call a meet in"' shortly.
.-
According to candidates who would
not submit to the use of their names,
E. R. Gurney of Fremont and E. M.
Pollard of Nehawka were mentioned
yesterday as possibilities.

Frank Vallery of Murray who was
injured last Friday when he was
drawn into the blower of the seper
ator of his threshing outfit, is get
ting afong nicely, although his in
juries have been very painful. Mr.
Vallery was working around the sep-
erator and adjusting a set screw when
his clothing was caught and he was
drawn into the machine and had his
coat torn off of him in a very few-
seconds and his shirt followed, being
torn to shreds. The left arm of Mr.
Vallery was hurt and cut quite badly
and he received several cuts about
the face and hands in the machinery
and was thrown back with great force
bruising him up considerably. The
affair happended so quickly that
Frank did not realize the dangerous
position he was in until the accident
had occurred and he was picked up by
his fellow workmen. He was taken
home and Dr. G. II. Gilmore called to
dress his injuries. The many friends
of Frank will be pleased to learn that
he is getting along as well as he is
and is able to be around at his duties.
From Saturday's Dally.
The new Carnegie library building
in this city is now nearing comple
tion and begins to take on the ap
pearance of a real first class build
ing. The carpenter work on the in
terior is being piaceu in position by
the contractors. The hard wood floor
in the reading room has been placed
in. position and the carpenters are
now putting in the book shelves. This
includes a large number around the
sides of the rooms and others placed
in the center of the room that can be
of easy access to the patrons and
librarian. The book cases are of
weathered oak and very handsome in
appearance. The doors and trimmings
of the reading room are also in the
light oak, matching the book cases
and adding greatly to the neatness
and harmony of the general appear
ance of the building. The painting
and decorating of the building has not
as yet been undertaken or the install
ing of the lighting fixtures which are
to be the latest that can be secured
and installed with a view of giving
the greatest comfort to the patrons of
the library.
The basement is still in the rough
as yet and as soon as the carpenter
work on the main room is completed!
the finishing touches will be taKen up
on the auditorium in the basement
where the large room for public meet
ings will be located. This room is
providfd with a small stage and can
be used very nicely for lectures or
readings which will tend to assist in
the lines of education and helpfulness.
The building on the exterior is one
of the prettiest in the city and a great
addition to the town.
