TRUTH IS BEST IN ALL THINGS! Stockmen Declare Local Jail is Too Far Away from Home So Declare! Cfcarlei A. Alden of Chi caaro to Ad Club Men. PUBLICITY AND PATRIOTISM Forceful Address, In Which Speaker .ays It Does Not Pay for a Baal am M to l ie in Ills Customers. It does not pay the business loan to lie to the public," said Charles A. Alden of Chlcagj to the Omaha Ad club at the noon luncheon at the Pjime. "It certainly doea not pay the advertising man to lie for him and a circulation liar Is no better than any other kind." Mr. Alden'a address fairly bristled- with epigrammatic sayings of this kind. "Lincoln," ssld the speaker, "once de scribed a public man of his acquaintance by telling the story of a steamboat which had a six-foot boiler and a ten-foot whistle so that every time they blew the whistle they had to stop the boat ' Pabllcltr a a 4 Patriotism. Publicity and Patriotism," was the title of Mr. Alden'a address and his general theme was that real publicity which seeks sfter the truth Is in line with true patriot ism and ethical codrs. lie said: There have been two secrets to the evolutions of our American nation which are working to that full measure of Ith eity which alone will satiety the genera tions of tomorrow. The first you ran trace to the man of CJalllee, who said: "Va shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." V have, of course, a modern r.ame for It, as we have for nearly everything:. We call It publicity, publicity Is all we ak. is mere a strike or a lockout? We no longer expect to see the regiments of armed men that these things meant a few short years ago. Give ua the facts. PubllHh the facts, investigate! Investigate!! In- VeKtUate:!! And then sorcad broadcust the established fact.s and the power of public opinion will unlock that factory and start again the wheels of Induatry which ever the aide that may have erred. When you know the truth you ahall be free, not be fore. Is there an epidemic of disease? doctors, bring on your medicines. Nurses, bring on your solace and your gentle ministrations. All you, neighbors, turn in and lend a hand. But when you have done all you can; when the lat poor victim has been cured or burled, the work is only Just be gun. Investigate and find the cauxe. Pub lish then broadcast to all the world the facts ye find, for only a man shall know the truth can he he free from other epi demics of this kind. Or it may be there la an epidemic of false advertising and people read in their maga slnes and newspapers the wild stress of the mighty dollar as It is portrayed in the most ingenious tales of some fover wrought Imagination. Come on, ye verdant cus tomers come on, and buy and buv and buy Theu try the goods and know the truth and never "go there any more." or perchance It may he an epidemic of political corruption. What, ho! Mr. State's Attorney, come on. we need your services. What ho! Mr. strong and Hon est Judge, come on, we need you on the bench. What, ho! ye honest and unfixed Jurymen, come on, we fcadlv need your time and clearewt thought. Hut when this all Is done, when the last foul, grafting looter of the puhllo purse and pride Is given a period of deliberation in penned up quar ters suitable for his porcine kind, the work Is not yet done. The facta must so be driven home that the cltlxens of every state shall know the truth thst neither these men alone, nor the system which made these men, alone. Ih to blame for the corruption of our commonwealth, but that on us lies the burden of responsibility and men who, from foollHhnexs or negligence, have failed to exercise their kingly rights of citlxenship are particeps ciimlnls In this black avalanche of oolitic! lUsnriu. tlon, for If good citizens do not themselves vigilantly perform the duties of cltlzen Khlp thev have no right to expect those duties to be unselfishly performed by others. This Is the truth that knowing shall make us free from future political putrefaction. W. U. Whitmoie. president, of the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska and uncle to Mr. Alden guest of the club. C. V. Hlgby of . the Lincoln Ad Men's club, brought with him a silver loving cup as a gift of the Lincoln Ad club, a token of appreciation to the Omulia club for Its recent trip to Lincoln. Inspect Douflas County Structure Like Tenants Looking: for Light Housekeeping; Booms. Indications now denote that William G. Comstock. Charles C. Jameson and other defendants In the northwestern Nebraska land fraud cases, under sentence to sfrve terms of Imprisonment, will be sent to the Adams county Jail at Hsstlngs Instead of the Douglas county Jail, as stipulated In the original sentence. These defendants are pleading for , a ohange of location. Ihey do not want to serve their sentences in Douglas county, and various reasons are set forth. One of these reasons Is the congested condition of the local Jail, and another reason Is that Douglas county Is remote from their sec tion of the state, and for business reasons they prefer to be nearer home. The Dawes county Jail at Chadron is the first choice of the d'-fendants, but District Attorney Howell line not consented to that location. He. however. Is said to be willing to permit a change to Hastings, and has so recom mended to the attorney general, In whom is veted the jower to grant transfer from one Jail to another when sufficient cause Is shown. The mandate from the United States court of appeals which makes it final that Comstock and his associates must go to jail, gives them until December 7 to sur render for commitment. They are now In Omaha awaiting decision of their plea to go to soma Jail other than Douglas county. "I think we may have a decision in this n atter tomorrow," said District Attorney Howell, Tuesday. It is rather anomalous for prospective prisoners to be shown through a Jail with a view to determining If they care to take "apartments" there, yet that is Just what has been done In the case of Comstock and Jameson. They have made a thorough In spection of the Douglas county Jail, Hheriff Bralley escorting them through, much af ter the fashion of a landlord or landlady ot an exclusive family hotel showing rooms to tcnant-about-to-be. After a thorouKh Inspection, here Is whut Mr. Comstock said; "The architecture of the Douglas county Jail Is splendid: the culxlne Is not quite so good, but that doesn't make much differ ence: and the service Is fair, the cells are well kept and probably would do. Really, the worst objection to a year's Imprison ment In this Jail is that It Is too far from home." STORE CLOSES AT NOON THANKSGIVING DAY. fey " Lj e p L- AlV" I ' iii i iiimn'"'"imm.
