DEMOCRATIC WASTE
Walter V. Hoagland Says Party
Has Lowered Standard of
Americanism.
PRINCIPLE TO THE WINDS
"The democratic record as. pub
lished in the Congressional Record,
indicts that party and of itself is suf
ficient to retire the administration,
which has lowered the standard of
Americanism during the last four
years," declared AValter V. Hoagland
of North Platte, Neb., addressing a
meeting at republican headquarters,
1607 Farnam street, Friday (evening.
Mr. Hoagland read the following
statement made by Congressman Sis
son (democrat) of Mississippi, which
appears on page 6,845 of the Congres
sional Record, of April 3, 1914:
Criminally Extravagant Congress. '
"Principle has gone to the four
winds of the earth and we are writing
ourselves down in the history of the
, country as being the most outrag
eously and the most criminally ex
travagant congress that ever sat on
the American continent I said that
ma speech before the last session,
and when I made that speech mem
bers of the democratic house came
to me and asked me not to put it into
- the Record because it would be used
by the republicans in their campaign
book. Let them use it. You may use
the statement now gentlemen, be
i cause when democrats get to. be so
violently extravagant that it makes
' its own record look bad as compared
to the very marked record of the re
publicans, I must apologize to you
republicans for having ever used the
words 'criminally extravagant' in crit
icising the appropriations that you
made, for if that expression, 'crim
inally extravagant' was proper to ap
ply to you, my 'God, the English lan-
. guage has never found an adjective
strong enough to apply to democratic
extravagance." i
' . Stands as Official Record, i ;
'Those words.f said Mr. Hoagland,
I "stand today' in the Congressional
Record as part of ithe official records
of the nationand were uttered by I
dcmocratl': - . .
Then the speaker turned to the
Congressional Record of Aoril (10,
1914, and read a statement made by
Congressman John J. Fitzgerald
(democrat) of New York, as follows
"If I placed my political fortunes
above my sworn duty under tne law,
I would not attempt to carry out the
Eromises of the democratic platform,
ut I should place .myself at the head
ol this band ot treasury looters upon
every occasion. , ,
'It is some effort for me to speak,
and I should not attempt to do so if
1 did not feel that my colleagues upon-
the floor teem either to be indifferent
to a very perilous situation for our
party, or else, which I do not ish
to believe', have so far forsaken dem
ocratic principles as not to deserve to
continue in control of the govern,
ment. ' ' '
"Whenever I think of the horrible
' mess that 1 shall be called upon to
, present to- the country on behalf of
the democratic party, I am tempted
to quit my place. I am looking now
at democrats who seem to take
amusement in soliciting votes on the
floor of this house to overturn the
committee on appropriations in its ef
forts to carry out the pledges of the
democratic platform. They seem to
take it to be a huge joke not to obey
their platform and to make ridiculous
the efforts of members of our party
who do try to live up to the promises
they made to the people."
"Remember, gentlemen, those
words were spoken by the chairman
of the committee on appropriations,"
declared Mr. Hoagland. The speaker
then went into details regarding the
"pork barrel" escapades of the ad
ministration, quoting dates and names
and places, showing how the public
money has been squandered by the
democrats as "molasses to catch
flies."
John L. Kennedy, Ben S. Baker and
. Frank S. Howell dropped in during
the close of the meeting, after having
attended a meeting at Valley., They
were greeted cordially. Mr. Hoagland
made the address of the evening and
made a favorable impression, being
applauded frequently as he scored
point after point in his expose of the
democratic fallacies.

Easy Way to Get
- Rid . of Itching
Don't worry any more about that
itching akin trouble. Just get a jar of
Resinol Ointment and a cake of Resi
nol Soap at any drug

nol Soap and warm
water bathe the af
fected parts thor
oughly, untjl they are
fret from crusts and
the akin it softened.
' Dry very gently,
spread on a thin layer
of the Resinol Oint
ment, and cover with
a light bandageif necessary to pro
tect the clothing. This should be done
-twice a day. Usually the distressing
itching and burning stop with the

PLAYING POLITICS
AT OMAHA'S EXPENSE
Secretary of War Holds Up the
1 Location of Army Aviation
. Station for Ohio.
WAIT TILL AFTE? ELECTION
With the election only four days
off, the War department of the demo
cratic administration continues silent
on the question whether Omaha is' to
have the army aviation station at Fort
Omaha, as recommended by Chief
Scriven of the signal corps.
Though the Commercial club' has
been pushing Omaha's claims to the
War department since it was learned
that Akron, O., has put in a bid
backed by a political pull, the depart
ment gives no satisfactory answer to
the club's message. The Commercial
club has been given to understand,
however, that nothing will be done to
tlx the location until alter election.
Nothing Tangible Yet.
AskeJ for information. Colonel G;
L. Bingham, depot quartermaster of
the Umaha general depot, says: I
know nothing definite at all about the
matter. I have charge of the signal
corps supply depot, and the balloon
shed 6ut there at Fort Omaha, arid I
woujd know if there was anything
tangible as yet."
Meantime, while Secretary of War
Baker is playing politics by holding
the aviation station up as a plum for
Ohio if his home state goes demo
cratic, the splendid equipment of the
Wax department at Fort Omaha is
rusting in disuse.
It is conservatively estimated that
the splendid buildings, quarters, barns,

School Moved Away.
For several years this has lain idle.
A few years ago the signal service
school which had occupied this splen
did place was moved to Fort Leavenworth,-
Kan.
Now, Although General Scriven of
the signal corps has recommended
Omaha for the aviation training sta
tion, already authorized, seeking to
make use of the splendid equipment
already there, Secretary of War Baker
holds up the whole proposition to let
his home state of Ohio come into the
competition even though Akron has
no available military post. - , -

Iowa Falls, la., Nov. 3. (Special.)
The Iowa Falls Ice company suf
fered a $2,000 loss in the destruction
by fire of one of their ice houses on
Hallowe'en. The origin of the fire is
unknown, the structure being a mass
of flames inside when the fire was
discovered. The fire department pro
tected much adjoining property from
loss. The destroyed structure was
uninsurable and the loss to the com
pany is a total one. , '

Bountiful Harvest in Corn Belt

WHEAT IS UP ONE CENT:
Due to reports that the crop is far
better than was expected and that
conditions for the harvest are per
fect, cash corn sold off 3 to 6 cents
per bushel, the break being almost
equal to the phenomenal rise of a few
days ago. Omaha receipts were light,
there being but thirty-six carloads on
the market. Old stock sold at 87
95 cents and new at 85g.7 cents
per bushel. Dealers, however, think
the break is only temporary and that
there will be a sharp advance as soon
as the south begins to make its ar
