THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY. JULY 27, 1916 9 Platform Adopted by Nebraska Democrats The democratic party of the Ute of Nebraska reaffirms its belief in the fundamental principles of the party as neretotore announced in its var ious national platforms. We particularly endorse and pledge our suDDort to the olatform recently adopted in St. Louis. The record of our party, both state and nation is uch that it meets the approval of all persons who are interested in the welfare of our country. Our record is one of achievement. We have in corporated into the laws of the state and nation the olatform pledges of tne party. We have kept taith with the people. ; Our pledges are now recorded in the book of deeds, and on this record we come before the people of the na tion and state to ask for an endorse ment of what we have done and for a renewal of the commission for the administration of the government. Never before were so many and such vexing problems presented to any administration involving our amicable relations with the rest of the world. Never did i president meet these problems with a letter understanding of their subtleties, or a higher conception of his own and the national duty, than did President Wilson. Despite the most vexing complications, he has . maintained with firmness the national honor and upheld -the rights of American citi zens until the justice of his attitude has been conceded by those who had assailed it. He has sturdily main tained peace with honor, and with in finite patience has mastered delicate situations that, in less skilled hands, must have eventuated in either a loss of national prestige or the horrors of war. We endorse, without reser vation, his conduct of the delicate negotiations with Mexico, and wel come the prospect he affords us of soon resuming our normal relations with that republic through processes that seem certain to win for our peo ple, a friendship from the Mexican people such as they have not enter tained for more than half a century. Weongratulate the people of the United States because :he;r president has inspired every Latin-American republic with a better comprehension of our good intentions toward them than it ever had before, and has payed the way for a Pan-American union mat must tremenduously ad vantage all of us in the promotion of better neighborhood and better com mercial intercourse. Hi aHminin.. iiauun nas ocen sucn that he merits the approval of all parties and the democracy of Nebraska pledges its heartiest support to President Wil son and Vice President Marshall. We believe the people, without re gard to politics, recognize the unex ampled prosperity of every part of the country, under four years of demo cratic rule. The national wealth has been increased more than fifty billions of dollars. The people have more money in the banks than they have ever had before. The notable pros perity of the agricultural classes is to every one apparent. Business is on a sound basis and yielding unusual profits. Labor finds more employ ment at better -wages than was ever enjoyed in this country. As a testimony concerning the con-, dition of the industrial classes, we in vite attention to the recent statement of Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, that more has been done for the laborer under President Wilson and the democratic administration than un der any previous administration. We believe that the people of alt classes axe satisfied with existing conditions, and that a great majority of them do not crave a change. We direct attention of the voters formerly allied with the progressive party to the recent statement of Theodore Roosevelt that most of the great principles of the progressive Dartv have either heen mnartttA intn law or embodied in, party platforms and suggest that none, except the democratic party, has been enacting laws during the past four years. We congratulate the people of Ne braska, on the fact that our dis tinguished United States senator, Gil bert M. Hitchcock, and our demo cratic congressmen, Daniel V. Steph ens, Ashton C. Shallenbarger and Charles O. Lobeck, have rendered notable services in the support of con structive legislation of benefit to the masses of the people. The first thought of these men. has been the welfare of the common man. We Heartily endorse their candidacy for .re-election. We also endorse the candidacy of Hon. W. L. Stark, John A. Maguir and Edwin McDermott for congress. To secure constructive and beneficial legislation we must elect a democratic United States sena tor and members of 'congress. . We recognize in our candidate for governor, Keith Neville, a citizen of high character, good business judg ment, and earnest loyalty to the state, and its welfare; and we pledge, to the voters of Nebraska that, should he-be elected as .their chief executive, he will bring to bear, in conducting the state administration, the same high sense of honor and the same rec ognized capacity that has made the administration of Governor John H. Morehead popular among the adher ents of all parties. " We bespeak for the other demo cratic candidates on the state ticket, the privilege of aiding.him, just as have Governor Morehead's colleagues, in providing acleftri and capable gov ernment. , .. . , .. , , ' We commend the candidates of our state ticket to the voters of Nebraska is men worthy of their support. ' We invite attention to the honest, capable and efficient administration of the state's business under the dem ocratic administration for the last four years. ' , -; ', We invite attention of taxpayers in particular to the fact that state taxes have been reduced nearly $1,000,000 during this biennium alone. . The democratic party takes pride in the initiative and referendum sys tem which it gave to the state to en able i the voters to pass directly and outside of the lines of partisan politics on questions that are essentially non partisan in their nature. Under this system the voters have passed already on the question of woman suffrage. Under it they will decide this year th'e fate of the proposed state-wide prohi bitory amendment involving a ques tion that,-as President Wilson has nnnarriaan. I tt f.mAia.j n r , holds fast to the principle that it is the duty of any party in power to carry out the will of the people, as to any law or constitutional amendment so submitted and adopted, and it so pledges its candidates. It promises the people that if the amendment is New Democratic State Committee Chairman L. F. Langhorst of Elm wood. State committee will fill other of fices.

Should the proposed prohibi tory amendment fail of adoption, the democratic party will accept its fail ure as a declaration by the people that they are satisfied with the local option system. we pledge the- nominees ot tne party to an honest administration of the law. In the words of the consti tution, we "shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed." The republican cartv in its national platform has declared in favor of giv ing to me ieaerai government exclu sive control of the transportation of the country. We are unalterably op posed to this attempt to destroy state control which in Nebraska and many other states has been of service to the people. Both forms of control are necessary, one for through business and far-reaching questions and one for meal business and local questions. We oledare to the people of this state that our candidates for United States sena tor and for members of congress will oppose this effort to destroy state control, which is guaranteed by our state constitution, and thus leave the people without, relief on local com plaints. Our party has taken advanced grounds in divorcing the courts from partisan politics. In compliance with the party pledge,- we have enacted a law which provides for the non-partisan selection of judges of the courts. We believe that substantial good has resulted, and will result to the people of this state by reason of the present method of nominating: and electing our judges of the courts. We believe this same principle would add greatly to the efficiency and general welfare of the public school system of the state. We favor legislation that will provide for the selection of all elective school officers on a non-partisan bal lot, and we pledge the passage ot whatever legislation is necessary to secure this reform. We believe that all of the people re siding in the Platte valley are en titled to the greatest possible use that can be made of the waters impounded in the Pathfinder reservoir consistent with existing and vested rights there in; and we especially recommend and favor that the United States reclama tion service deliver at the respective headgates of those who have pur chased water, the amount by them purchased, and that there be released for them at the reservoir sufficient water to alldw for seeoaee and evap oration between the reservoir and the place of delivery. We further recom mend that the greatest possible co operation be had between the Ne braska State Board of Irrigation, Highways and Drainage and the United States reclamation service. We heartily endorse the plank con tained in the national democratic platform which declares in favor of the control of flood conditions on the Mississippi and other large rivers by impounding in government construct ed reservoirs, the flood waters of tributary streams and for the using of such impounded waters for the reclamation of arid lands. We favor a sufficient appropria tion by the state to fight a success ful conclusion the cases now pending in the federal courts, seeking to pro tect the just and prior rights of irri gators in Nebraska against the en croachments on the part of water users in the states of Colorado and Wyoming. We commend our senators and congressmen who have earnestly en deavored to have legislation enacted by congress to conserve these waters, and we ask congress to en act such legislation and make such appropriations as may be necessary to construct and operate the tri county project already surveyed in Gosper, Phelps and Kearney coun ties. We favor the conservation of the national resources of this state and the development of water power from the streams of the states as authorized by law. for the benefit of the people of Nebraska. We condemn the administration of the republican state railway commis sion in failing to properly adjust tele phone rates, in setting aside rate agreements between telephone com panies and the public and in failing to properly gather evidence for use in rate matters before the Interstate Commerce commission and the fed eral courtj. We believe that the elec tion of Victor E. Wilson to member ship in the commission would result in the correction of, existing abuses. We especially endorse the rural credit law recently passed by con gress. Nebraska is one of the lead ing agricultural states; it is the logical and natural field in which one of the regional banks provided for in this act will operate. We earnestly urge upon the board to locate one of these banks in this state. We favor the passage of the fol lowing legislation and pledge ' the party and its nominees to its enact ment: 1. Such remedial good roads legis lation as will insure the people of tbi J state ot we Drama tneir just pro portion of the $75,000,000 recentlv an propriated by congress for the use of the states, together with an economic use and distribution ot the same in constructing public highways through out the state. 2. Legislation looking to the em ployment of its convicts on the public highways of the state to the end that all the people of the state may be benefited. 3. The maintenance of a permanent publicity bureau to give information regarding the resources of our state and thereby encourage more people to make their homes among us. 4. Such amendments to the work man's compensation act as are necei sary to (A) adequately compensate those who are injured; (B) to safe guard the right to persons who are injured oy ine insolvency -01 mcir employers. 5. The continuance of the supreme court commission. 6. Liberal appropriations for the de velopment, maintenance, and support ot all educational institutions, includ ing rural high schools and con soTidated schools, which were author ized bv democratic legislation. The following separate resolution was rousingty adopted by the demo cratic convention: The democrats of Nebraska send cordial greetings to the 2,000 Ne braska citizen soldiers who are now enduring the vicissitudes of climate and the toils of camp life on the Mexi can border in response to the call of their country. We express our appreciation of the readiness shown by those boys to meet their country s most critical needs, and we congratulate the par ents of Nebraska upon their produc tion of such sturdy patriots and join with them in the hope that the two Nebraska regiments may see no more hazardous service than thus tar en countered, and that they may soon be returned to their homes and families. Missouri Pacific And City Planning Board Get Together The City Planning board has reached a Joser understanding with Chief Engineer Headley of the Mis souri Pacific relative to the Belt Line elevation of tracks. The company's engineer will recommend a clear road way and permanent structure at Far- nam street, the same as was agreed for Dodge street, but will not recom mend this for Douglas street. Indi cations are that inasmuch as the Mis souri Pacific has yielded to the main contentions of the planning board, an official agreement will be made next week and the work started. Trouble Over Hen SettledOut of Court A neighborhood quarrel over a set ting hen and two settings of eggs brought Wilson A. Robinson of Ben son into county court today for his preliminary hearing upon a complaint by Victor F. Vigren, who charged that Robinson attempted to shoot him. Judge Crawford, after a hearing, or dered the complaint dismissed, and the trouble will be settled out of court.

At Columbus it was 101 and at O'Neill 100. The seven teen other weather bureau stations in the state all had temperatures up very near 100. There has been no rain in the state. The rainfall in Omaha since March 1 is seven and four-fifths inches less than usual. We have had 9.67 inches since March 1 and, normally, accord ing to statistics, we should have had 17.50 inches. At most places in the state they have had more rain and no crops are suffering. The morning opened with a higher temperature than prevailed yesterday at 8 o'clock.

Rain is needed for corn over much of the region from the central MississiDDi valley southweatward. the condition is somewhat serious in parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri. Haying and harvest s' of winter wheat, oats and rye pro gressed well in all central districts, and the weather was favorable for threshing. Also spring wheat made rapid growth in Washington and Montana, but it was damaged by high temperature in the Dakota, and Min nesota, and some rust is reported in spring wheat and oats.

Ty Cobb, Super-man, World's Greatest Baseball Player, Tells How Nuxated Iron Gave Him New Life This great giant of strength and endurance says he now plays a better game than when he was younger. Physician explains why taking Nuxated Iron gave Ty Cobb such tremendous strength and vitality after he was so weakened and all "run-down" ays it will often increase the strength and power of delicate, nervous folks 200 per cent in two week's time. P O New York, N. V. When Interviewed in hii apartment at Bret ton Hall. Ty Cobb aid: "Hundred! of people writ to ma to know how I train and what I do to keep up that force and vitality which enable me to play practically every day of the entire base ball season. They won der why 1 ean play a better tame today than when I waa younger. The tec ret it keeping up the sup ply of Iron hi my blood exactly what everyone elee ean do If they will. "At the beginning of the present aeaaon I wii nervoua and run down from a bad tuck of toneilltla, but aoon the paper began to atate: 'Ty Cobb haa "eome back. ' He ia hitting up the old tr.de." The tee ret was Iron Nuxated Iron filled me with renewed life. lrtaa send and take almple nuxated ire, I am convinced that the live ef thou lands of pereona might to aved who now die every year from pneumonia, grippe, eonsomp tton, kidney, liver and heart trou ble, etc. The real and true eauae which atarted their dlaeaaee waa nothing more nor leea than a weakened condition brought on by lack of Iron in the blood. Iron ta absolutely neces sary to enable your blood to change food Into living tissue. Without it, ne matter how much or what you eat, your food merely paaaee through you without doing you any good. Tou dont get the atrength out of it, and m a consequence you become weak, pale and sickly looking, juet like a plant trying to grow In a aoti defieient in iron. If tou are not strong or well you awe It to yourself to make the following teat. Bee how long you can work or how far you can walk without be- coming tired. Next take two five-grain tablet f ordinary nuxated iron three time per day after meali for two weekt. Than teet your strength again and ee for youraelf how much you have) I am astonished at the tremendeve etrength and endurance which I ee quickly obtained from taking Nuxated Irea 1 feat ywuager and stronger today than over wafer hi my life, and the proof ia shown by the laet that I play better game than when I was younger. "Now they aay I'm worth $80,000 a year to any baseball team, yet without plenty of Iron In my blood I wouldn't be worth five cents. Nuxated Iron supplies that 'atay there' atrength and vim that make men of mark and women of power." Continuing, Dr. Sauer said: "Mr. Cobh'a ease 1 only : one of hundreds which I could cite from my own personal experience, which proves con clusively the astonishing power of nuxated iron to restore strength and vitality, even in most complicated chronie conditions." Not long ago a man earn to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life Insurance. I waa astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of SO and as full of vigor vim and vitality aa a young man; In fact, a young man he really waa, notwithstanding his age. The secret he said was taking Iron nuxated Iron had (Wed him with renewed life. At 80 he waa In bad health; at 40 he waa careworn and nearly all in. Now at SO a miracle of vitality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. A I have said a hundred times over, Iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only throw away patent medi- gained. I have seen dosens of nervous, run down people who were ailing all the while double their strength and endurance and entirely get rid of all symptoms of dyspep sia, liver and other troubles In from ten to fourteen days' time simply by taking iron in the proper form. And this after they had In some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of reduced iron simply to aave a few cent. You must take Iron in a form that ean be anally absorbed and as similated like nuxated Iron If yon want It to do you any good, otherwise It may prove ' worse than useless. Many an athlete or prise lighter haa won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with Iron before he went Into the affray, while many another baa gone to In glorious defeat clmply for the laek of iron. E. Sauer, M, D. . , A good batter must be hi prim physical condition ha needs a eael head. jnlsli sye and tremendous strength to put the swing behind the bat. Ty Cobb Is undoubtedly the greatest baseball player In the history f the game. A abort time ago he wai weakened and all "run-down"-today he la a miracle of atrength and endurance, due to filling his bleed with plenty of Iron. Ha eaye Nuxated Iran haa given him new life and renewed energy and put the eld-time vim and vigor youth Into his blood.
