SIX BIGJI SCHOOLS
SETTLEjlSPOTES
Omaha Central and Beatrice
Occupy Limelight in Clash
. ' v for State Title.
NORTH PLATTE AT KEARNEY
Rivalry of two months' standing be
tween at least six high school foot
, hall teams of the state will be settled
in Friday and Saturday's conflicts.
Beatrice and Central High schools
claim the limelight with a deciding
game on the Queen City grounds.
Grand Island and York clash on the
tatter's grounds, and North Platte
journeysto Kearney to make its first
bid for leadership.
' Although the games thus far have
tended to give Omaha, Beatrice and
Lincoln leadership. Coach Baskin's
eleven at North Platte is still unde
feated. A victory over Kearney is ex
pected. and this win will torm the
basis fair a judgment of the western
' team's standing, in the title race.
Grand Island and York are about
evenly matched, both have seveVal
stars and both are as finely coached
as any of the teams in the state.
The fight of Nebraska elevens for
recognition in the Missour valley
championship race formally opens
when Coach Reese's, Lincoln squad
' makcB.the trip to Sioux Falls. The
South' Dakota team has been licked
by Sioux City by a score of 26 to 0,
but otherwise has a clean record and
is considered a formidable foe in the
' valley. Sioux City has an exception
ally strong eleven this, year, in tact is
the most feared in the valley. Lin
coln's showing against Sioux Falls
may be taken as pie basis for a sound
comparison,
Commerce and South Hiih schools
meet on the Luxus grounds. The odds
- are with Coach Drunimond s eleven
as the Souths have suffered miserably
. from the loss of players on account of
delinquent studies. Gnthenherg gets
its chance for the limelight in a game
with Norfolk, The latter is the favor
ite. Nebraska City meets the State
.Aggies on Capital Cit territory.

HUSKERS TOIL FOR
BAM WITH AHES
Coach Stewart "Puts Charges
Through Stiffest Practice
of the Season.
HOSPITAL LIST IS LARGE
Lincoln, Oct. 31. (Special.) Dr.
Stewart put his foot ball squad through
the stiffest practiced the season here
today in preparation for the cruicial
game with Ames here next Saturday
afternoon. , j ' , '
As, a result of the distressing show
ing last Saturday, Nebraska is bound'
to play better foot ball for the squad
had its weak points pointed out in
-a serious talk, which Stewart' de
livered in the gymnasium after the
game. The thing which is causing
the greatest worry in the Cornhusker
camp just now, is injuries. The hos
pital squad has assumed alarming
proportions.
Xloser, Gardiner, kiddel. Caley,
Cook and Shaw, are all suffering frdm
minor injuries, but are expected to
be back in shape for the game next
Saturday. The most aggravating fea
ture of the hospital list is .its ser
ious interference with scrimmage, of
which the Huskers are badly in need.
i ' Wtt May Get Gate.
The Nebraska mentor may scramble
his lineup again before the game
with Ames! The backfield performed
like high school boys last Saturday
and unless there is a big improve
ment during the next two days, some
of the veterans will find their, places
taken by second-string men.
Stewart is directing all of the work
this week behind closed doors. Ames
had a scoling party on the side lines
last Saturday, but the Huskers used
only the simpliest formation and it
did not benefit the visitors much.
The squad will gcK a bunch, of new
formations this week for the special
benefit of the Aggies. The Huskers
have not played the open game to
any extent during the first games.
From now on rooters can expect to
see the play open up for the squad
has mastered the forward pass and is
using it with excellent success.
Manager Reed expects an immense
crowd for the Ames game. The Ag
gies are looked upon as the best team
Ames has had in years and a Missouri
Vallev title is at stake on the out
come. The visitors will be supported 1
by a rooting squad from Ames.
Cornhuskers Won't '
Play Post-Season ,
Games, Says Reed
Lincoln, Oct. 31. The University
of Nebraska will no accept any offer
to play a post-season foot ball game
with an eastern or' any other teamr
according to Athletic Director Reed
today in refusing a proposal made by
Walter E. Hapgood, business man
ager of the jston Braves, Hapgood
proposed that Nebraska play Decern
ber 2 on the Braves' field. Boston,
nn.n I
DOSTon,.'
Tufts, Brown or Dartmouth. Reed
replied that Missouri valley rules for
bid more than eight garnet i year.
Nebraska's schedule being full, and
also forbid games on other than col
lege fields. At far as Nebraska is
concerned, this ends all talk of inter
sections! post-season games. '
Falls City Boy Is
Badly Hurt in Game
Tarkio, Mo., Oct. 31. The most
serious accident reported so far this
season is the one that befell Charles
"Chick" Miller, an end of the Tarkio
college eleven, and a Fall City, Neb.,
product, which he received while play
ing with the Tarkio scrubs against
the Shmenandoah (la.) High school
team. Coach Stives of the Tarkites
sent Miller into the game to toughen
him for the later conference games,
buit it was t costly move, as Miller
was so badly hurt that he will not be
able to play any moe this year. His
cheek bone was crushed 'and it liter
ally pushed the eye out of the section.
A surgeon at Shenandoah operated
on Milter at once, and he will not be
badly disfigured, although he will
carry a deep scar for the remainder of
hit life to remind him of hit experi
ence. He will not be able to recover
from the injury in time to get back in
the lineup this eason.
No Chance to Secure '
Notre Dame in Omaha
Lincoln. Oct! 31. (Special Tele
gram.) Report! that the Nebraska-'
Notre" Dame game might be trans
ferred to Omaha are without foun
dation, Manager Guy E. Reed said
here tonight. The Missouri Valley
conference rules compel theNplaying
of games on the campuses of either
competing team. It would be impos
sible to transfer the game, Keetl sain.
Ducky Holmes Wallop v ,
- Nonpareil Reserves
The Nonpareil Reserves weren't
fast enough lor the Ducky Holmes
eleven, and the latter triumphed by
a score of 20 to 0. The feature of the
fray was a sixty-yard run through a
broken field by Duffback. The Ducky
Holmes play the Athletics next Sun
day. .' ' "
Commerce Eleven Meets
South High Saturday
The High School of Confmerce and
the South High school will be the

most interesting and fighting games
witnessed in Omaha this season, a
large crowd it expected.

TUMULTY SAVES HIS
CHIEF FROM ERROR
Private Secretary of President
Man Who Stopped "Post- ,
,, script" From Going.
i "
STARTLING INSIDE .STORY
New York, Oct. 31. (Special Teje-
gram.) George C. Warren, jr., a well
known resident of Jersev City, one of
the republican candidates for presi
dential elector in New Jersey, declares
that he is in a pdsition positively to
confirm . the statement by Senator
Lodge regarding the so-called post
sciot to the Lusitania note." Mr.
Warren says that he has information
directly from a member of Mr. Wil
ton's official family, whose name, for
obvious reasons, he is not at liberty
to give. .
V Note to uerara.
The slorv. as Mr. Warren has it,
is that the DOatscriot was not in the
form of an addition to the note for
transmission to the German govern
ment, but in the form of supplemental
instructions to mDassaaor uerara,
who was to convey to the German
government the information that the
note had Deen written :or nmerican
consumption. Mr. Warren's story is
that the man who prevented this in
struction being sent to Ambassador
Gerard was Joseph P. Tumulty, sec
retary to the president.
According to Mr. Warren's inform
ant, Mr. Tumulty realized the politi
cal danger to his chief of sending
such a message, and went to Lindley
M. Garrison, then secretary of war,
and urged Mr. Garrison to exert his
influence to prevent the instruction
being sent. Mr. Garrison replied that
he had no influence with the' president
and that it was not worth while for
him to attempt to interfere, that Post
master General Burleson was the man
whom Mr. Tumulty should endeavor
to interest.
Burleson Backs Up.
Mr. Warren's informant sayt that
Mr. Tumulty did go to Postmaster
General Burleson and succeeded in
arousing Mr. Burleson to the impor
tance of stopping the telegram. Mr.
Burleson agreed that the message
shonld be stooped. Mr. Tumulty took
the responsibility of having- the' sup
plemental message held up to await
further orders. Mr. Tumulty and Mr.
Burleson .thereupon went to the presi
dent and laid the case before . him.
The president did not agree with their
presentation of the matter. He ar
gued thatthe American people do not
want war, were opposed to getting
into war, and that the course laid
down in his instruction to Ambassa
dor Gerard was in accordance! with
the feeling of the country. This ar
gument satisfied Postmaster General
Burleson, who withdrew his objec
tion. - Mr. Tumulty, however, contin
ued to object very strenuously upon
the ground that to send such instruc
tions would be a fatal political error,
Lansing Carried Point.
Mr. Tumulty then sought Mr. Lan
sing, who, at that time was counselor
of the State department. Mr. Lan
sing saw Mr. Tumulty's point at once,
and agreed with him, and Lansing and
Tumulty went back to the president
and succeeded in convincing the presi
dent of the importance of withdraw
ing the supplemental instruction to
Ambassador Gerard. It was when
Mr. Bryan was informed definitely
that his instruction to Mr. Gerard had
been withheld that he resigned as
secretary of state.
Mr. Warren declares that the source
of his information is such that here
can be absolutely no question is to
its reliability. ..
Quail Season Opens, but
Hunters Are Not Excited
The quail shooting season opens on
Wednesday, but it isn't exciting much
interest among the nimrods because
there .aren't very many in the state
this fall. Here and there a covey has
been located, but the hunter who un
covers a bunch is largely endowed
with luck, void winters and nail-
storms have killed off the quail. Ten
birds a day is the limit in Nebraska.
HOW SOOTH RULES
WITHOUT VOTING
Five Times as Many Votes
North as South Needed to
JSlect a Congressman.
RECORD STARTLING FACTS
Washington, Oct. 31. "Statements
have been issued demonstrating clear
ly that in congress, the 'south is in
the saddle' in respect to chairman
ships of the most important commit
tees and in regard to general dom
ination of this section in important
legislation' which affects the whole
country. I wish to emphasize these
facts and to particularly direfct atten-j
tion to the 'largely disproportionate j
share rti.iclv the south exercises in j
the election of congressmen," de-l
clared Hon. Frank M. Downer, secre
tary of tfte western licadquartctrs of
the national republican congressional
commi'ttCo'iii a statement here today.
"As constituted at the beginning of
the Sixty-fourth congress, there were
435 members, classified as follows:
Democrats, 233; republicans, 193; pro
gressives, 7; independent; 1, and so
cialist! 1,-
1 "Eight southern states, Alabama,
Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
Mississippi, South Carolina and Vir
ginia, have a total representation of
sixty-six members in congress; sixty
four of these are democrats, one is a
republican and one a progressive?
Only Five to One.
"There was a total vote cast for all
candidates for congress in these sixty
six southern districts of 511,199, an
average of 7,745 votes to each district.
beiven northern states, Connecticut,
New Jqrsey, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa.
New Mexico and Idaho, likewise have
a total representation . of sixty-six
members, fifty of whom are repub
licans and sixteen democrats.
"There was a total vote cast for all
candidates for congress in these sixty
six northern districts of 2,587,402, an
average of 39,203 votes to each dis
trict, so that ie vote in eight south
ern states was as potential, in the elec
tion of a congressman as five votes
in the northern states enumerated.
"South Carolina's total vote cast
for congressmen, of whom she has
seven, was 33,414, an average of 4,773
votes to each district. Minnesota's
total vote cast for congressmen, of
whom she has ten, was 322,811, an
average of 32,281 votes to each dis
trict. Is thejre any good reason why
a voter in South Carolina should have
nearly seven times as much to say
in respect to the legislation which
shall be enacted for all the people,
as a voter in Minnesota?
Florida and Colorado. ' ,
"Florida hat four members of con
gress. -All candidates received 24,076
votes, an average ot o.uiy votes in
each district. The state of Colorado
likewise has four members of con
gress. All candidates received 247,
506 votes. Colorado being an equal
suffrage state, we divide the total
vote bv two. which gives us 123,753,
an average of 30,938 votes to each dis
trict. The average voter m Colorado,
both melt and- women, believe he or
she is just as good and should have
lust as much to say in regard to gov
ernmental affairs as any other voter.
It B not believed that Colorado vot
ers wilt relish the idea when ,they
discover that a Florida voter has five
times as much power to elect a con
gressman as tney.
"Georgia has twelve congressmen
Indiana has thirteen. Georgia cast
81.742 votets for all candidates for
congress; Indiana cast 630,249, an
average of 6,790 votes per district in
Georgia and 48,480 per district in
Indiana.
, Ratio Going Up. ,
"Louisiana has eight congressmen.'
New Mexico has one. Louisiana cast
51,090 votes for all candidates for con-
Bress. an average of 6,386 per district.
New Mexico, one of the newest states
in the union.' cast 46.413 votes for all
candidates for -congress. Certainly a
voter in Louisiana should not be al
lowed seven times as much power in
respect to the election of congress
men as a voter in New Mexico.
'These comparisons couid be mul
tiplied indefinitely. A sufficient num
ber hav been shown to focus atten
tion upon the gross, inequality which
exists in respect to tms matter.
Men Demand More
Pay and Factory
Closes Its Doors
. 1
A strike or lockout is on at the
Omaha CooDeraffc comnanv plant,
Thirty-fifth and I streets, where the
men demanded an increase in pay of
i'i cents an hour. ' The men made
their demands at the close of work
Mondav evening, and as a result the
company locked the doors and did ,
not start the machinery. Seventy
five men had been employed there.
Uhe machine shop men wanted 4
cents an hour increase, while the la
borers asked for 3J4 cents. No dis
turbance of any kind has been re
ported, although the factory asked for.,
police protection.
Mechanical Device for
Unloading River Boats
The mechanical grian conveyor ii
being installed on the river front, to
that the next load of grain that comes
down from Decatur on the Julius F.
Silber may be unloaded by means of
the patent conveyor.
This is a screw conveyor, consist
ing of a large tube pivoted on a cen
tral support and capable of being
swung from side to side in order that
the grain may be directed into this or
that car in various places along the
track. Electric power will be used.
The little motor it attached at one
end of the tube on the bottom side.
The wire leading to the motor is of
sufficient length to allow necessary
play. Inside the tube is the long
screw device which forces a steady
stream of grain from the boat to the
car.
