Chairman Willcox Publishes a
Letter Inviting to Confer
ence With Democrat.
INSISTENT ON GETTING IT
New York, Oct. 24. (Special Tele
gram.) The specious character of the
attempts made by Mr. Wilson's cam
paign managers to indicate that Mr.
Hughes has made a compact with citi
zens of foreign extraction to present
to the public their views of how for
eign relations should be administered
is further shown by a letter, made
public today by Chairman Willcox of
the republican national committee.
' The letter is addressed to Henry
Weissman, president of the New
York state branch of the Crerman
American alliance. It was written on
stationary of the democratic national
committee and was signed by an as
sociate of Frederick B. Lynch, chief
of its bureau of political organizations
and clubs
Invitation From Stone. .
In this letter Mr. Weissman was in
vited in polite terms to meet Senator
Stone,' chairman of the foreign rela
tions committee of the United States
senate, who was in New York on the
avowed mission of winning over to
Mr. Wilson's support certain citizens
of German birth.
"The absurd, and , disingenuous
phase of the whole matter," said Mr.
Willcox, "is that while Mr. Wilson's
managers have charged specifically on
two separate occasions that Mr.
Hughes was compounding with a cer
tain branch of the electorate, they
themselves were covertly soliciting, in
a most abject way, the support of
members of the German-American
alliance."
This is the letter to Mr. Weiss
man': Dsmocretle National Commutes Head
quarter!, 30 East Forty-second Street, New
York, Sept. 11 My Dear Mr. Weiss
mann: Senator Stone, chairman foreign re
lations committee, will be at the Waldorf
on Thursday: don't you and a few of your
friends want to have an Informal talk with
him on Thursday or Friday evening? Phone
me on receipt of this, Murray Hill, 9190,
and oblige. Tours very truly
F. W. JANSSBN.
Date Significant.
"Mr. Weissmann is a lawyer at 44
Court street, Brooklyn," Mr. Willcox
went on. "The date, September 11, is
significant, because five days later,
on September 16, occurred the famous
party at Terrace Garden, when Sena
tor Stone sat up so late making ab
ject plans to leading citizens of Ger
man birth, or extraction, to support
the Wilson cause. He directed his
plans to meet them, not as American
citizens, but as Germans in the United
States. Mr. Weissmann says that he
did not reply to the letter, but that
two days later he got a telephone
message from the writer, Mr. Janssen,
asking why no reply had been sent.
"Mr, Janssen expressed himself as
anxious to have Mr. Weissmann ac
cept the invitation, because Senator
Stone was then at the Waldorf and
was expecting him to call.Mr. Weiss
mann replied that, . inasmuch as he
respected the office which Senator
Stone held he could not visit him, be
cause he feared that the kind of con
versation that must necessarily ensue
would be highly disagreeable to the
senator. ,
Charges Are Unsupported.
"In all of the attempts made by
democratic managers, including Mr.
Norman Hapgood, unsupported state
ments have been made that Mr.
Hughes made explicit promises of
support. Not one shred of document
ary evidence has been produced on
that point. On the cpntrary, the
charges have fallen down in every
particular. Moreover, the hypocrisy
of the charge has been made ap
parent through the production of
conclusive evidence that Mr. Wilson's
managers were trying to do exactly
what they charged Mr. Hughes with
having done.
"Mr. Hughes has neither agreed nor
promised I use the words of Mr.
Hapgood and the writer of the state
ment put out in the morning papers
by the democratic national committee
to reflect in his public addresses the
opinions of any particular group.
What Mr. Hughes has done and what
he will continue to do, is to stand for
undiluted Americanism.
For Straight Out Americanism.
"Neither, Mr. Hughes, nor any
member of this committee has sec
retly solicited the support of any
one, who is not willing to go the
whole road for a straight out Ameri
canism. Let me quote the statement
wh,ich Mr. Hughes made in his ad
dress of acceptance:
Whether native or naturalized, nf what
ever race or creed, we have but one coun
try and we do not intend to tolerate any
division of allegiance.
"The injection into the campaign of
a reflection of the dreadful forces
which are convulsing Europe has been
done solely -nd exclusively by Mr.
Wilson's ov.. managers. I challenge
them to produu; the least iota of evi
dence to show that this committee has
countenanced anything less than the
interests of the entire American peo
ple. "Mr. Hughes has ,pleaded for the
support of no faction. No evidence
can be produced to show the contrary,
because there is none."

GREY SAYS ALLIES
WON'TTALK PEACE
Foreign Minister Thinks It Is
All Bight for Neutrals to
Look to Future.
MUST HAVE GUARANTEES
London, Oct. 24. Another impor
tant contribution to the discussions
on peace was made by Viscount Grey,
secretary for foreign affairs, at a
luncheon given today by the Foreign
Press association, at which the dip
lomatic representatives of all the al
lied countries were present.
The foreign secretary made it plain
that the allies were not prepared to
discuss peace terms, but welcomed
any efforts by neutral countries for a
combination to prevent future wars.
Some of the most important passages
of the secretary's speech follow:
"I would like to talk, not, indeed,
about actual conditions of peace,
which can only be stated and formu
lated by the allies together and not
by any one of them separately, but
about the general-objects which the
allies must secure in this war. And
to do that I would ask you to recall
that we must never forget how the
war came about. If we are to ap
proach peace in a proper spirit it can
only be by recollecting and recalling,
and never for a moment forgetting,
what was the real cause of the war.
. Must Have Guarantees.
"Some people say: 'Oh, we need not
go back over that old ground now;
everybody knows it.'
"You cannot go back to it too often.
It affects the conditions of peace.
Germany talks of peace; its statesmen
talk of peace today. They say 'Ger
many must have guarantees against
being attacked again.' If this war had
been forced upon Germany that would
be a logical statement. It is precisely
because it was .not forced upon Ger
many, but was forced fay Germany
upon Europe, that it is the allies who
must have guarantees for future
peace.
! Passing to .the position of the neu
tral countries, Viscount Grey said, in
answer to a question as to what they
could dor: -Work
for Neutrals.
"I belieye the best work neutrals
can do for the moment is to try to
prevent a war like this from happen
ing again. If the nations had been
united in such an agreement, and a
resolution to insist in 1914 that the
dispute must be referred to a con
ference or The Hague, that the Bel
gian treaty must be observed, there
would have been no war.
"Nations fighting for their existence
with daily increasing prospects of
seeing victory brought nearer, still
knowing that if they stop short of
victory, they stop short of everything
for which they are struggling, cannot
be expected to spend much time think
ing about what might happen after
victory is secured. But the neutrals
can do it. I observe that not only
President Wilson, but Mr. Hughes,
is supporting a league started, not
with the object of interfering with
the belligerents in this war, but which
will" do its part in making peace se
cure in the future.
, "It is a work of neutral countries
to which we' should all look with
favor and hope. Only we must bear
in mind, if the nations after the war
are able to do something effective by
binding themselves with the common
object of preserving peace, they must
be prepared to undertake not more
than they are able to uphold by
force, and to see, when the time of
crisis comes, that it is upheld by
force.
Will You Play Up?
"The question we must ask, then,
is: 'Will you play up when the time
comes?' It is not merely the sign
manual of presidents and sovereigns
that is really to make- that worth
while; it must also have behind it
parliaments and national sentiments.
"Supposing the conditions of 1914
occur again and there is such a league
in existence. Everything will depend
upon whether national sentiment be
hind it is so permeated by the lessons
of this war as to compel each nation,
as a matter of vital interest, to keep
peace other than by force."
Potato Shipping Season
Over; Prices Will Rise
The, potato-shipping season is
S radically over so far as northern
ebraska is concerned. The crop is
about all shipped otit, the last sales
having been better than $1 per
bushel.
With potatoes in storage, it is as
serted that instead of prices being
lower they will be higher as cold
weather "approaches. It is said that
the stocks lrf storage are the lightest
in years and commission men think
that potatoes will become scarce be
fore the new crop begins to arrive
from the south.

Superintendent Schreiber Says
Women Should Not Hire
- Strangers as Servants.
WANTS REFERENCE BUREAU
"Why don't women learn some
thing of the identity of persons they
engage to work as servants?" asked
Superintendent Schreiber of the
Board of Public Welfare. He had
just read the account of a young
woman gaining entrance to an Omaha
home on a worthless recommendation
and then absconding with $1,000
worth of jewels.
"Women who engage servants
should demand recommendations or
references which will stand investiga
tion. This ,would seem to be ordi
nary business prudence," added Mr.
Schreiber.
At a meeting of the board Thurs
day evening the superintendent will
propose the establishment of a cen
tral bureau of reference for house
servants, for the protection of house
holders as well as for worthy serv
ants. Heart Disease Causes

Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
Relieves Baby When Other

There is nothing so necessary to a
child's health and comfort as regular
ity of the bowels. All children arts es
pecially susceptible to stomach trou
ble and any overstrain of t.ie sensi'
tive organs has a tendency to ob
struct elimination. This condition is
responsible for much of the illness of
childhood.
To relieve constipation a mild laxa
tive should be employed. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent in their ac
tion and should be avoided. Mrs.
Alfred Du Boia, Mt. Holly, N. J.,
says Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
without doubt the most effective rem
edy for constipation she has ever used
and that it is the only remedy she
could find for her baby. Little Earl
was badly constipated during his first
year and nothing she tried seemed to
help him until she got a bottle of Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Now he is a
fine, strong, healthy boy, and she
