EXPRESS REGRET AT
H'NISH RESTORATION
Republicans ' Generally Sorry
, That He Is Leaving
1 Chairmanship.
SOME WHO ARE ASPIRANTS
(Prom a Hid CortMPMiilmt)
Lincoln, Aug. 6. (Special) The
announcement ol the resignation of
J. G. McNiih at ehairman of the re
publican state committee was a great
surprise to Lincoln republicans and
at the same time a source of much
regret ; ' 1
While some of the candidates for
state office here had objected to the
rnmM.ii ..l.r,(n MrNiah without
first consulting their wishes, most of
them had come to tne conclusion ini
McNish was a good choice for the
place and had confidence he would
carry on a successful carnpaifn with
perfect fairness to every man on the
ticket.
.Th ttrnnnaitirtn now CdmeS UD SS
to a successor to Mr. McNish. Many
republicans here believe the thing to
do is to entirely eliminate all aspir
ants for the comuittee offices who
were involved in the aisagreements
between Mr. McNish and Mr. Sutton.
Suggestion Made. -
They say the thing to do now is
to go out into the state and select
a man outside of both Omaha and
Liincoln. Get just as far away from
the candidates as possible and start
in new by selecting a man of capa
city wno win conuuci ""w1
to elect the ticket and nothing else.
Several names have been mentioned

understands the political game from
all points. . , -. -.
Lehr Being Pushed. !
! H. F. Lehr of Albion, has been
pushed for the chairmanship several
times and was once elected, but de
clined to serve because of other con
sierations. He was chairman of the
Boone county committee through
three campaigns, and was later deputy
state treasurer under State Treasurer
Brian. , ' v ,
Vice chairman Beach will call a
meeting of the state committee some
time this week, probably for Satur
day, so a chairman may be made and
headquarters opened on the 15th, as
originally set.

ROBINS' SUPPORT
PLEASESCORRICK
Decision of Progressive Con
vention Chairman to Back "
Hughes Is Welcomed.
MEANS MUCH TO CAUSE
(Prom a fluff CortapmiSent)
Lincoln, Aug. 6. (Special.) The
announcement that Raymond Robins
would support Charles E. Hughes for
the presidency is very pleasing to
third party progressives here, and to
none more so than to Frank P. Cor
rick, state chairman, who was ser-geant-at-arms
for the convention at
Chicago over which Robins presided,
and the personal representative of
Colonel Roosevelt in Nebraska.
"You may say," said Colonel Cor
rick to The Bee this morning, "that
the stand taken by Mr. Robins is
mighty pleasing to Nebraska pro
gressives. This is especially so when
it is remembered that Mr. Robins was
formerly a deomcrat and one of
President Wilson's strong supporters
for the nomination in 1912, though
he later assisted in the organization
of the progressive party and ever
since that time has been one of our
leaders.
"It means much to the cause of
true Americanism to have Mr. Robins
come out for Mr. Hughes," added Mr.
Corriclc. "It simply means that Mr.
Robins sees nothing to hope for any
more in the dcmocratic'psrty, at least
after this campaign, and that Mr.
Hughes will receive the bulk of the
progressive vote, including most of
those who were formerly democrats.
"The position taken by him is that
progressives should not hesitate be
tween the party of nationalism and
the party of sectionalism, and he has
expressed the very feeling which
prompted the progressives to endorse
Mr. Hughes, as coming nearer the
ideas we advocate than does Mr.
Wilson.
"Mr. Robin's letter has a strong
sentiment about it that will appeal
to every true progressive, and while
most of us may be a little disap
nointed at not betas: in the ficht this
year with a party candidate of our
own, we feel that in endorsing the
republican candidate we have taken
the stand that all true progressives
should take who believe in true
American principles of government"
Henry Ford and His
Party Go to Tractor
Show at Fremont
Henry Ford, his son Ebsel and
nartv . of twentv-nve department
heads, experimenters and officials of
the Ford Motor company, passed
through Omaha yesterday morning
enroute for Fremont to attend the
tractor show. Mr. Ford s secretary,
E. R. Brvant met the newspaper men
and said that Mr. Ford had refused
to be interviewed on this trip, which
was in the nature of a vacation for
him, and would have nothing to say
before he. reached Fremont
Mr. Brvant said that the new Ford
tractor would be demonstrated at the
tractor show, but that it would not
be put on the market until it was a
nearly perfect as the Ford organiza
tion could make it. The tractor is
intended to do the work of six horses
and do it anywhere that horses can
go. It draws two plows and can oe
used on the roads, in the corn fields
for cultivation, and almost anywhere
else, furnishing power for farm ma
chinery, etc.
The party included a nait oozen
Hawaiian musicians, who furnish mu
sic for the party on the trip and will
entertain the visitors at Fremont ,

Such a canine e.saved the lob late

"Sonny" drove the big dog off, but
not before he was bitten severely on

FINDS JOY IN THE
LIFE OFCHRISTIAM
Dr. Jenkins Says Nothing; Is So
Elusive as Pleasures of
This World.
CHRISTIAN IS TRULY HAPPY
- Rev. Dr. D. E. Jenkins, president
of Omaha university, preached yes
terday at St Mark's Lutheran church
on "Joy in Christian Life."
"The desire for happiness is in
stinctive in man," said Dr. Jenkins.
"Yet nothing is more elusive. So
called 'pleasure seekers' never find
happiness. Their pleasure is vapid,
cold, dead, and it leaves a void and
a dissatisfaction akin to despair.
They are in the position of Tantalus,
whose punishment according to the
myth, was to stand in water up to
his chin, tortured by thirst, yet every
time he stooped to drink the inviting
water it receded and not a drop could
he touch with his lips.
"True happiness is found in the
Christian lite, in doing duty day by
day, in doing your work, in not seek
ing happiness. For happiness, as
Immanuel Kant said, flees from those
who pursue it and abides with those
who do not court it.
Religion Is Happiness.
"The Christian religion is pre
eminently the religion of happiness.
One of Christ's last remarks to His
disciples was: These things have I
spoken unto you that my joy might
abide in you and that your joy might
be full.'
"This is a joy that endures. , It
'abides.' It differs in this respect
from the ephemeral, empty, spas
modic, unsatisfying joy of the world's
pleasure seekers.
"The Christian religion Is full of
happiness. Christ's sermon on the
mount deals entirely with happiness
for the word 'blessed' there really
means 'happy.' That great sermon
constit' ted Christ's rules to His dis
ciples for the happy life.
"And aside from those rules for
riarht livintr. aside from devoutness.
aside from unselfishness, aside from
duty, there is no real happiness.
Those who go on pleasure-seeking
joy rides through the world, living
for themselves alone, shirking their
duties, seeking the will-'o-the-wisp
good time, end up in disaster and
the great emptiness of unsatisfied
longing.
Joys of the World.
"Lord Chesterfield, perhaps the
most brilliant man England ever pro
duced, expressed his great disap
pointment with the so-called joys of
the world.
We need to emohastze more the
joys of the Christian life. It is not
a religion of long faces and absten
tion from the legitimate pleasures of
,!r. t . . . , i . n ,
me. it is quite tnc opposite, cut
it recognizes the fact that the real,
great and abiding happiness is found
in devotion, duty, work, and not in
shirking all these.
"Yet this iov is unknown to manv.
even of our wise men. . Prof. Peck
of Columbia university, recently had
an article in magazine, not a sen
sational magazine, but a learned and
philosophical one, in which he dis
cussed the question: 'Is Life Worth
Living,' and solemnly came to the
gloomy conclusion that if a man
is tired of life he should have the
right to end it. What a wretched
failure is the life of a man who can
have such an outlook on earthly ex
istence. What a lot he has missed."
