Frank Letter Addressed to T. W.
Park, President of Nebraska
Federation of Labor.
In a letter to T. W. Parker,
president of the Nebraska Federa
tion of Labor, John 11. Morehead,
the democratic candidate for gov
ernor, points out that his every
action as a member of the legis
lature pointed to keen sympathy
for the rights of the wage-earn- dress of grievanct
Mr. Morehead's letter
follows:
"T. W. Parker, Esq.,
"President Nebraska Federa
tion Labor, Lincoln, Neb.
"My Dear Mr. Parker:
"It has come to my notice that
an effort is being made to put me
in a false light with the organized
workers of Nebraska. I deem it
only just to both myself and the
wage earners that my position
upon certain question of interest
to the workers be made so plain
thai only those who want to be
deceived will be deceived by the
efforts of my opponents.
"Of course I believe in the right
of wage earners to organize for
their own protection and mutual
assistance: indeed, I deem such
organizations an absolute neces
sity. I know something about the
benefits that have accrued to the
group of toilers by reason of or
ganization, and I also realize the
splendid work organized labor
has done in the abolition of child
labor and in making more toler
able the conditions under which
men and women must work.
"I want you and your col
leagues to know that if I am elect
ed governor I will lend my best
assistance to every effort that is
made to further care for the in
terests of the men and women
who work for wages. I am heartily
in favor of putting Nebraska in
the ranks of those progressive
slates that have already made
provisions for the protection of
workers by enacting a wise and
equitable compensation law.
"Such a law should not, na
turally, be drafted by the em
ployes themselves, neither should
it be drafted by employers. But
such a law can and should be
drafted by representatives' of nil
factions concerned, to the end
that while it does exact justice to
all, it will do an injustice to none.
I am in favoi; of a just arbitra
tion and conciliation law, such a
law as will prevent strikes with
out lessening in any wise the op
porlunities of ianor to secure re
nor permit
plemented by providing for
factory inspection, and the same
is true of other labor laws. The
time has come, . I believe, when
the bureau of labor and industrial
statistics should be better equip
ped, to the end that it may be
made of more service to the
rapidly growing army of men and
women who work in Nebraska
mills and shops and factories.
"While it is true that this is
an agricultural state and always
will be, it is a fact that Nebraska
is growing as an industrial state,
and the time is at hand when this
fact should be recognized by ap
propriate legislation and adequate
appropriations made for the de
partment of state that, is intend
ed to look after the interests of
employes. You may rest assured
that if 1 am elected governor I
will do all I can to bring about
this condition.
"I know something about the
struggles that the average man
has. I started out in life for my
self without a dollar, my only
apital being a somewhat limited
duration that I secured by work
ing mv wav through a nusiness
ollege. I worked as a farm
band, taught school and clerked
in a country store. Later I en
gaged in business for myself and
have met with a fair measure of
success, but I have not forgotten
my eariler struggles, nor would I
if I could.
"I trust that this frank letter
to you will be received in the
spirit which prompted its writing.
It is only fair, I take it, that you,
representing a great, organization
of labor, should know my position
directly from me, and not from
those who would not hesitate to
injure me by putting me in a false
position.
"Very truly yours,
"JOHN II. MORE HEAD."
ers.
The occasion for the letter is
the determined effort by Mr.
Morehead's opponents to place
him in a false light before the
wage earners of this state, in
order, of course, that this may
rebound to the advantage of such
opposition.
hot-headed agitators to inflict a
wrong upon employers.
"I was a member of the legis
lature that enacted more laws in
labor's interests than any other
in the state's history. You doubt
less are familiar with those laws.
I favored them all. The factory
inspection law needs to be sup-

Here is Efficient Com Harvest
Help
NOW, when the corn is ready for picking
and help is most needed, is usually just
the time when good field workers are
scarce and hard to get at any price. But you
need not let that unpleasant fact trouble you.
Instead of spending your time and money in
efforts to get enough extra help to harvest
J'our corn, you can secure better results, at
ess expense, by investing in an
I H C Cora Picker
Deering or McCormick
Taking one row at a time, an I II C Corn
Picker moves down the field at a smart walk,
snapping every ear from its stalk, husking it,
and delivering it clean to the wagon that
moves beside the corn picker. Three men
only are needed one on the picker and one
on each of two wagons. The corn that is
shelled by the husking rolls is also cleaned and
delivered to the wagon. The entire crop of
corn is harvested at less than one-half the cost
of hand picking. The husking and loading
into wagons is done in the field. With only
one handling, the crop is stored in the crib
ready for winter.
The I H C local dealer will explain to you
the working of I II C corn pickers and will
show you how it makes money for you at corn
harvest time, besides doing away with the
work and worry of securing extra help. See
him and get catalogues and full particulars, or,
mail a letter to the address given below.

mals as a reward of their mark
manship. Mr. Cook killed three
of the squirrels al one shot and
is willing lo swear to this state
ment, as is also Dave, who was

Melancholia.
Many physicians agree that
melancholia or a gloomy state of
mind is often the result of im
proper food or improper chewing
of food. A melaeholic person is
dejected, sad and unhappy. If
the cause of this sickness is some
disorder of the digestion, you
should use Timer's American
Flixir of Bitter Wine, which will
quickly clean out Ihe digestive
organs and purify the blood. Pure
blood will give new energy, new
life to the patient. His food must

be selected with care and mil
thoroughly masticated. Triner's
American Flixir of Bitter Wine is
a recognized remedy in loss of
appetite, sluggishness of the
bowels and in nil disorders of the
digestion. If any member of the
family wil show sudden weakness
of the mind or body, give him
