Robert Bacon Resents Insinuation
Made by President Wilson
New York, Oct. 14. (Special Tele,
gram.) Replying to the attack made
uDon him bv President Wilson in the
course of his sperch at Shadow Lawn
last Saturday, Kobert tsacon nas aa
dressed the following open letter to
Mr. Wilson:
"Sir In your capacity of candidate
for public office you have seen fit, in
a public address, to criticise more than
140,000 citizens of this state who hon
ored me with their votes at the recent
primaries, with the intention of mak
ing it appear that my candidacy for
the republican senatorial nomination
was supported by men who would in
volve this country in war. You spoke
of me as 'a man whose avowed posi
tion in, respect of international affairs
was unneutral, and whose intention
was, if he became a member of that
fjreat council upon international af
airs at Washington, to promote the
interests of one side in the present
war in Europe,' and you argued that
if the republican party should suc
ceed, Oiie 'very large branch of it
would insist upon a reversal from
peace to war.'
"The statement that it was my in
tcntion, if elected senator, to promote
the interests of one side in the present
European war, and thereby violate
my oath of office, is beneath con
tempt. My respect for the office of
president of the United States pre
vents me from characterizing such a
statement as it deserves. I leave the
judgment of its falsity to the public.
Either you have not read what I have
said many times publicly on the sub
ject of our neutrality, or you have
deliberately misstated my attitude in
an attempt to raise a false issue. With
the accurate, carefully considered ar
raignment of your foreign.policy by
Mr. Hughes, Mr. Roosevelt and Mr.
Root, I am proud to agree, In your
anger and desperation as The ring of
truth closes in upon you, you seem to
be trying to make a false issue.
"You say that your re-election
mnt nar anH that Mr HllffhpV
election means war. bf course, noth
ing could be iurttier irom tne iruin.
It is inconceivable that a president of
the United States should so insult the
intelligence of the American people.
The statement that a large number of
your fellow citizens, because they con
demn your weak, vicillating policy,
wish to plunge this country into the
horrors of war, is preposterous. The
contention tnat you or ine democratic
administration have kept this country
out of war is specious and unfounded
in fact Vacillation, timidity, weak
ness in asserting our rights, inability
to perform our duties, confusion of
words, a constant change of attitude,
threats unsupported, cannot possibly
keep this nation or any other out of
war. It is the fear of those who will
vote against you that such conduct of
our foreign affairs will inevitably lead
us into war. Strong, determined,
clear policy can alone preserve for this
country the respect oi other nations,
which will insure peace. It is un
worthy to assert that a large number
of vour fellow men, Americans of un
divided allegiance, of whole faith, of
sublime trust in the honor and right
eousness of their country, would seek
to plunge the United States into the
horrors of war. Such a statement you
must know to be false. If a million
votes weie- to be yoursMor making
such misstatement, if you believe it to
be the only way to win a desperate
cause, you should scorn to misrepre
sent the people of a country which
has elected you to its highest place of
tru.'t.
, "The issues of this campaign are
vital to the welfare of the nation. I
appeal to you, sir, as a candidate for
the highest office, to present the is
sues squarely and fairly to the people
and abide by their decision'without
stopping to inflame the prejudices of
one class against another, or unworth
ily to impugn the motives or to insult
the patriotism of loyal Americana who
may differ with you. The American
spirit, the spirit of our fathers who
believed in plain words backed by
deeds, who stood for fair play, justice
and courage, has always been the safe
guard of Americans. The democratic
party and the republican party need
not be afraid to trust to this spirit
now and to state the issues clearly
lith honest speech. I have the honor
lib be, sir, very truly yours.
"ROBERT BACON."
Omaha Might Soon
Be Bis: Oil Center
Prospecting for oil wilfsoon begin
in Dawes and Sheridan counties, Ne
braska. Through John L. McCague
of O naha, the Midwest Oil company,
the leading oil development concern
in Casper, Greybull and Thermopo
lij. Wyo.. has leased 30.000 acres of i
oi lands in Dawes and Sheridan coun
ties. If oil is struck in expected quanti
ties the possibilities of a pipe' line
into Omaha immediately leap into new
life. A pipe line from the oil fields
of Casper, Wyo., has, long been talked
of, but thus far nothing definite has
been done. The industrial commit
tee of the Commercial club is keenly
interested in the development and es
pecially in the pipe line to Omaha,
where refineries could be established.
