' - _ Dawes Hits New Note in Campaigning Candidate Deaf to Pleas of Political Wiseacres; “Give Public Facts,” His Plan. ^Points La Follette Danger Staff Correspondent The Omaha Her. En Route With Dawes, Casper, Wyo., Oct. 9.—To one who has ridden "round the circle" In past campaigns, with candidates for president and for vice president, the physical features of the present trip are much like all ether such trips. The newspaper men. who are along to represent the great press associations and the special representatives of papers in the bigger cities, are much the same fine type of men ns have traveled with the candidates in previous campaigns. In fact many of them are the same men, The meetings in the towns are much like all other meetings. The crowds that gather to hear the rear platform talks are like all other such crowds, sections of the great Amer ican sovereign, the people. Outwardly this Dawes' train is just a campaign train—and yet there is something here that is altogether different. It is the candidate that is different. It is Dawes. He is unlike any candidate withiq the experience of the newspaper men aboard. The audiences in the halls, the crowds that mass around the rear platform sense the difference, though prob ably only a few could say what that difference is. Deals With Facts. The difference is in Dawes, yes, but more properly it might he said that the difference is' in Dawes' training. All his life. Dawes has dealt with facts. A fact, to Dawes Is tne biggest thing. It may be a stubborn fact, it may ►»,l>e a disagreeable fact, hut neverthe less it la a fact, and facts cannot he Ignored. If problems are to be solved they can only be solved by taking the facts Into account. It Is this which forms the basis of Dawes mental processes. The winning of votes Is the pri mury purpose of this campaign trip. Dawes knows that this is the pur pose. as he knows other facts. Dawes also knows that the American peo ple can understand facts if they are presented properly. He has been a thorn in the side of many old time political advisers who believe that the people want to hear glittering promises and oralory. ‘ This is a government by the peo ple," Is Dawes' answer. "They have governed themselves for nearly a cen tury and a half. Always whenever any truly big issue has arisen they have made the right decision. From that I know they not only under stand facts, but they appreciate hav ing facts told them. I would not in suit intelligences of people by pro , ceding upon any other principle. The glittering promises and fine words of the orator may turn them aside for a time, but UHUally that is because those who know the facts do not have the courage to tell them." Three Dig Facts. Thus it is, that on this trip there Is felt the difference when other trips and other candidates come to mind. There are three big fnets in this campaign that Dawes has sren frojn the beginning: First, that Da Follette would be the real contender in the election strug ^ gle. Second, that the backbone of the Da Follette movement, the only real ly national organization, the only fac tor In the heterogenous makeup of (Turn to I’aso Two.

Steck Reads Statement By Associated Press. Burlington, la., Oct. 9.—An alleged affidavit by A. L. Fink of Buffalo, X. Y., describing. Fink's version of how Senator Burton K. Wheeler in duced Roxie Stinson to testify against former Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, was read tonight by Daniel F. Steek, democratic candidate for United States senator of Iowa, in a campaign speech. Steck charged that his republican opponent, Senator Smith W. Brookhart. assisted in ob taining Fink’s services to induce Miss Stinson to testify. Steck said he has started petitions to Attorney General Stone, requesting an investi gation of the Daugherty investiga tion committee. The affidavit said that Fink, in return for assistance in the senate investigation, was promised the of fice of internal revenue collector in Buffalo, and that his attorney, Henry Stern of Buffalo, was promised a federal judgeship In Xew York. The affidavit said these promises were made by Senator Wheeler. It assert ed that Wheeler promised Miss Stin son opportunity for personal gain on the Xew York stock market if she would testify. Asked Her for I.nan. Reading the affidavit, Steck quoted Fink as saying he went to Cleveland on February IS last, on business. From newspapers he lejjrnrd that Roxie Stinson, a friend of 12 years ago. had fallen heir to a considerable amount of money. In need of addi tional funds for hi* business, he re quested Miss Stinson to meet hltn. They went to a hotel to discuss his affairs, hut Miss Stinson interrupted, the affidavit said, with the state ment: "I have a far bigger deal on right now and you ought to come, in on it. "I asked her what It was," Steck read from the affidavit, "and she told me that she was being defrauded out of her just portion of Jesse Smith's estate by Harry M. Daugherty before he refused to recognize her or al low Smith to have her In Washington all the time they were in office and that she was prepared, if necessary, to Invent stories that would incrimin ate Daugherty to such an extent that he would be forced to resign from office; also that she expected to sell her story for $150,000. which she felt she was entitled to. She nsked me If I would get some strong democrat to purchase the story she concocted. No Real Evidence. Fink, the affidavit continued, "realized that the .woman knew noth ,ng positive but was depending pure ly upon hearsay and gossip.’ He left her, he said, and laid the matter before Samuel Ungerlclder, a Cleveland broker. He and 1 nger lelder called on Miss Stinson. Unger lelder was told by her that she had no "possible proof of guilt, of Harry M. Daugherty" and warned her that if she persisted In her plan he would "have her locked up for malicious slander of a government official." Believing this Incident had blocked Miss Stinson's plans, Fink said he re turned to Buffalo, mentioning the af fair only to his attorney, Henry Stern. On March IS, however, Stern In formed Fink that a federal warrant charging conspiracy, had been Issued for him. and said thnt Stern added: "Upon my agreeing to have you go to Washington to testify against Daugherty tills warrant Will he with held ufitll you are safe In Washing ton if you go at once.'

Elopement of Midland Student ' Announced After Two Years Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee. Fremont, Oct. 9.—Secrets will out. No one realizes that any better than Harold Lothrop, lineman'on Jhe Midland college football team. For Harold today blushingly accepted congratulations on his marriage to "Babe" Anderson, Homer, Neb. And the wedding took place two years ago. The announcement of the wedding was first made last Sunday when the couple finally decided that it wa; time the bride's parents were taken into the secret. Mr. and Mrs. Anderson announced the nuptials through the columns of the Homer paper and Harold return k ed to school. His bride returned to South Sioux City where she ha# been living for several months and that ■was all there was to it. Then some enterprising resident of Homer sent a marked copy of the paper to Midland college. The paper arrived this morning and classes were almost disrupted. Harold blushed a little, then drew a sadly battered marriage license from his pocket. He had carried it ever since the wedding day, Septem bor 20, 1922. The couple was married at Jet.'erson, S. D., the certificate disclosed. 1,0throp is studying pharmac/ at Midland and will not discontinue any of his classes. Digest Poll Shows Coolidge Holding Commanding Lead Latest Figures Give President Margin of 447,172 Votes Over Next Can didate. With a total of 1,451,591 votes counted, including those for half a dozen lesser candidates for president. President Coolidge continues to main tain his majority over John W. Davis and Senator Iji Follette in the Literary Digest poll. The returns are from 42 of the 48 states. The latest returns, made public Thursday, are: Coolidge, 808,310; T,a Follette, 351,178, and Davis, 275.647. Outside of the solid south, Cirolidge Is leading his two opponents in every ■state in the country except Wiscon sin, which La Follette seems to have carried by a safe margin In the strnw vote. The Independent candidate is running a poor third in the south, but leads Davis in most northern and eastern states, including New York, New Jersey, Masv.rbueette, Pennsyl vania. Illinois nnd Iowa. Coolldge Leads In Nebraska. Nebraska votes so far counted are as follows: Coolldge. 16.487; Davis. 7,089, and La Follette, 6,591. ' In the current Issue of the Digest It is claimed that when the poll is completed it will stand forth, by many hundreds of thousands of votes, as the "largest nnd most representa tive test of public opinion ever at tempted in this country.” The article explaining the poll con tinues: '"The two outstanding farts of the present tabulation of votes, shown in detail on the following page, are still, as they have been from the first published returns, that. Mr. Coolldge receives a considerable larger vote than all of the other candidates com bined. nnd that Mr. La Follette Is running ahead of Mr. Davis. Numer ous republican editors observe that this result harmonizes pretty well with the various sectional "straw votes” now being taken all ov<r the country. It certainly harmonizes with their own Ideas. Democratic Return* Slow. "On the other hand, as the Digest has frequently pointed out, democratic returns have been slow to come in. due partly to technicalities in the mailing of the ballots, and *\en In the present largo return. Including 42 of the 4S states, it will i>e observed that most of the southern states have so far made a small return, nnd tlint Tennessee has not been heard from at all.

That la the reason, h» savs, that the poll favors the republicans. Sinclair I .otter.

Davidson, under arrest in that city as a fugitive from justice. David son was the final hope of the inves tors in the oil bubble. J. B. Davidson, posing as an expert oil prospector, came to Rulo last June. He insisted that he had found indications of oil not far from town. The man was plausible In his state ments. He had anecdotes to prove the valueo f investing early in oil projects, and the citizens of Rulo in vested. Then Davidson declared that he must go to Corsicana to obtain a drilling outfit. Investors had turned over tl.200 to the ibmpany, which had been formed, and this sum was was placed at the disposal of David son. Davidson left Rulo, ostensibly for Corsicana, but the only word received from him was by the Bank of Rulo, In the nature of cancelled checks for nil but !,70 of the amount.

The president of the United States ! *tood up in his box a moment later ’ and led the applause of 4" 009 wild eyed Washington fans, as the veteran shortstop was carried off the field, hung between the shoulders of two brawny teammates. Peckinpaugh s. swarthy features were distorted with agony. One leg swung loosely under him. It had held up just long enough to carry him across a wide stretch of ground to a bounding ball that was bristling with danger to Washington. Forgets His Injury. A Giant runner. Southworth. was on first. He was running in place of Kelly, who had sirgled.

Then it was that Peckinpaugh for i co: hi* injured kne<\ forgot his pain, j and by a mighty lunge got the bail, and while still in the air at the peak I of the last leap that took him to the i ball, snapped it with a sideways mo tion to Harris, getting Southworth at second. Then as hia feet struck the ground. Peckinpaugh fell in a heap and rolled ow and over, writhing with pain. Game Today Decides.

He singled off* Arthur Nehf. the great little lefthander of the Gian-s "ho seemed to hold the Washington b-rters in the hollow of his glove, as the baseball saying is. He took se. - °nd on Muddy “ Ruefs sacrifice, limping every yard of the way. Fans Raise Rackel. He scored one of the two runs with which Washington won the game, "hen Stanley Harris, manager of the club, delivered a single that probabtv produced more noise than any one base hit In the history of the game.
