LINCOLN, Oct. 11. (Special. )-Krcd Her
man and Dr. H, S. Alcy of this city, promi
nent socialist leaders, today filed with the
ccretary of state a formal protest against
allowing the socialist organization which
hold a state convention In Omaha last
month to place Its state ticket on the offi
cial election ballot. They contend that
they represent the regular socialist party
of the state and that the others have no
legal or moral right to the uso of the name
oclallst labor party. The protest Is signed
by nearly twenty persons, residing either
In Omaha or Lincoln. Secretary Marsh
has notified the Interested persons that he
will listen to argument In the case at 1
o'clock Monday afternoon, following Is
the protest, setting forth In detail the va
rious claims upon which they seek to pre
vent the party from placing Its ticket on
the ballot:
We, the undersigned citizens of this
state and members of the socialist Inbor
party of NobrnKkii, do hereby niter our
protest aRalnst the use of th; emblem of
said party, namely, the nrm and hnmmer,
by the parties placed In nomination at the
mass convention, held in Omalui. nt Wash
ington hall, Heptcmbcr 21. 1M1, who. up to
July 19, 15(01. hnd been variously known hh
the social democracy, Dcbslten nnd social
democrats.
We also protest ncalnst tho use of the
ramei or any portion of the name of th
oclallst labor party by said parties and
lor tho following reasons, tn-wlt.:
Nationally tho socialist labor party has
been recognized nn one of tlm political
forces In the United Htatcs since ISiS and
in Nebraska slnen tho residential peetl)li
of 1M8, at which ttmo there was cast for
lis suite cuuuiutiicH an uvt:rnK' ui iim vmn
and fur Itn presidential electors Rn average

labor party of Nebraska placed a full iMto

that barred nny party whn went on tho
ticket by petition from having Its nunc or
mblem placed on said ticket the vote of
said socialist labor party fell to '.MS lit Ne
braska In spltn of tho fart that socialist
cniimeni was nnn ib conmniiuy on un in
crease. In consctiuenro of another radical
change In the election law of Nebraska,
169S and 18Mt, tho socialist labor party was
not on tho statu or national ticket In IDOO,
as ltn members were unable to get the
necessary 6,(KiO signatures to their pctltl n.
Instead of the ttfo required In 1S36 and 1VJS.
llowevor. In this year, lto. a state legisla
tive voti; of 30, was polled. Today tho
socialist labor party has on oftlcliil stand
ing In two HtntoH of tho union, namely,
S'ew York and Ilhodo Island. Last fall tho
vote cast for Its candidates In twenty-six
states ranged from 21 In Georgia to 12.622
In New York. The total for Its presidential
electors was 34,191.
As a national organization tho socialist
labor party first entered the Held In 1SS8.
since which tlmo It has been represented In
vory national election. The vote for. Its
presidential lectors was In 1HSS, 2.0OS: In
1892. 21,157; In 1696. 36.KH, and In 1900, 34,191.
Since the birth of tho socialist labor party
In 188S nt least u ilozun so-called reform
forties have sprung Into existence, lived
heir short life nnd passed Into oblivion,
and within the Inst four years anothor of
these mushroom growths has sprung Into
exlstenco and Is now trylnn to plirer our
emblem and a portion of our name, here In
ihn Rtuin nf Nebraska. Since this orcanl'.n-
ilon, namely, the Dobsltes, or social democ
racy, was llrst organized Its name, as we
novo stated, has been changed from social
democracy to social democrats, and on
Julv 19. 1901. at a unity conference, held In
Indianapolis, Ind., while opposing tho so
clnllst labor party at overy turn In tho
road. It decided to take for Its name the
word "socialist." but 'nt tho same time
adopted ns Its emblem tho arm and torch,
not the arm and hnmmer. , The,.- socialist

unity conference, but'by a referendum votn
unanimously declined without thanks, proof
of which we hereby produce. The Com
plied Statutes Of Nebraska prohibit a new
party from adopting the name or nnv por
tion of tho nnmo of another party. There
fore we deny to tho obovo parties the right,
legally or otherwise, to the use of our em
blem or any portion of our nnme.

A mechanic gets the best
tools wherewith to work.
Why shouldn't a woman?
The best household tool
known is Fels-Naptha soap.
With it the drudgery of
clothes-washing and house
cleaning is not half as much
as usual, because there's no
boiling.
If upon thorough trial of
Fels-Naptha soap you don't
find this true, your grocer will
promptly refund your money.
We authorize him to do so.

Ono reason clven for "Shore Acres' "
great success Is that tbo play attracts all
clatses of thcatcr-goors, It Is a simple,
homo play with a story full of heart Inter
est and It makes a strong appeal to nil
lovers ot tho beautiful In art or nature It
tells nn Interesting story and tho char
acters aro all admirably drawn. Thcro Is
no villain, no fallen women and no
soubrctto. Tho peoplo Mr. Herno has In
troduced In "Shore Acres" are Just llko
those you may find in any Now England
coast villngo and they act Just llko them
on the stage. The plot Is easily followed
and Is almost free from exaggeration. Thin

doctors say, and so tho people say. If tho
kidneys du not net properly, Rtvo a diu
retic; so tho doctors say, so most peoplo
say. Thus It Is tho liver and kidneys am
prodded aud whipped into greater activity
ovory tlmo thtlr functions ling.
Such peoplo do not seem to understand
that thcro 1b nny such disease as catarrh
of tho liver, and catarrh of tho kldnevs.
Cathartics and diuretics only aggravate
catarrh of tho liver and kidneys. Peruna
Is neither a cathartic nor diuretic. Pe
runa Is a catarrh remedy. This explains
why It Is that Peruna euros a great number
ot liver and kidney diseases in which tho
usual remedies full.
It Is worfo than useless to prescrlbo ca
thartics for catarrh of the liver. It Is
worso than useless to prescrlbo diuretics
for catnrrh of the kidneys. Such remodlrs
only lrrltato nnd make matters worse.
Peruna cures such cases promptly nnd per
manently. Peruna cures catarrh, ,
wherever it lurks in tha system
whether of the head, nose, throat
lungs, stomncli, kidneys, liver or
pelvic organs,
If you do not dcrlvo prompt nnd satis
