After the War.

' Mr. Wilson has not kept us out of war. He
has not got u into the European war. Possibly
he might have done so. Our country has not
uanted war, but if we are wise we will prepare
for the end of the war in Europe. We wilfbe the
wealthy nation of the world. The Europeans will
want our wealth. We ought to prepare for effec
tive defentc by building up a sufficient navy and
constructing sufficient coast fortifications and
should provide a good army organization.
"Mr. Hughe! and the republicans are in favdr
of doing this. Mr. Wilson and the democrats
haw no intention of doing it. We should have a
foreign policy which protects American citizens
and American rights abroad. No nation can af
ford to go to war with us at this time if we assert
our reasonable rightt. Our trade, our mailt and
our citizent ought not be unduly interfered with.
Mr. Hughet. if elected, will assert and preserve
these rights without war and without difficulty.
President Wilson has proved that he will not.
'When the European- war ends there will be a
determined effort in Europe to manufacture and
send to America goods in large quantities in order
. to get back the gold which they have been send
ing over here and to cancel their indebtedness to
us. Unless we have a reasonable protective tariff
the result of this effort on he part of the Euro
pean people will be to close our factories and
throw many people out of employment.
"Mr. Hughes and the republicans are in favor
of a reasonable protective atriff. Mr. Wilton and
the democrats are opposed to any tariff protec
tion. If Mr, Hughes is elected we will have a
straightforward foreign policy, preserving the
rights and lives of Americans without involving
us in foreign complications. If Mr. Wilson is re
elected we will have continued the same shifting,
uncertain, wobbling, contradictory, weak, vacillat
ing foreign policy which we have suffered from
during the last few years.
These are sufficient reasons, in my opinion,
for the support and election of Mr Hughes,
though there are many, many others."
Our Fifty Per Cent (Alm.st) Senator.
Delayed, but still in time, we have the com
pilation of important roll calls of the last session
of the Up i ted States senate, tabulated by Collier's
Weekly, which gives the records of the different
senators together with their "not voting" rating.
It is explained that there were some two hun
dred and forty record votes, out of which our
democratic lenator, Mr. Hitchcock, is in the "not
voting" column one hundred and twenty-one
times. That means that he has been, for us a
50 per cent (almost) senator. ,
If the explanation is offered for him that he
was "not voting" only on minor matters we mayl
ask: Why did he not answer to roll call on the
army appropriation bill and so many . of the
amendments offered thereto to perfect our pre
paredness program? Why did he not answer ofi
the naval appropriation bill and its amendments.
alo a part of the preparedness program? Why
did he not answer on the motion to stop the free
seed graft?- Why did.he not answer on the civil
service provision of the rural credits bill? Why
did he not answer on the sugar tariff? Why did
le not answer on the Norris and Cummings
amendments to the Shields water power bill and
on the pasasge of the bill? Why did he not an
swer on the five vital amendments to the new
revenue law and on so many others, likewise im-
pcront? ,
, If the excuse is offered that Senator Hitchcock
was so busy in the committee rooms that he could
not hear the electric bell summoning him to roll
call, how ii it that other democratic senators, with
more exacting committee assignments, avoided
being marked "not voting" so often? For ex
ample, Senator Bankhead, "not voting" only nine
teen timea; Senator John Sharp Williams, "not
voting" only thirty-three timet; Senator Thomas,
not voting only sixty-seven times; Senator
Ollie James, "not voting" pnly eight-five times;
Sefiator Stone, "not voting" on)y eighty times-
alt as against Senator Hitchcock not votings one
hundred and twenty-one timea?
Is Nebraska not entitled to something better
than a 50 per cent (almost) senator? ,
Hughes' 'Instinct of Efficiency'
"Mr. Hughet hat shown in hit career the
instinct of efficiency which will guarantee that,
under him, the government will once more
work with vigor and force." Theodore Roosevelt.
Taft Lauds Huhges' Courage
"Mr. Hughes it a man whose convictions
have always been the guide of hia action. I
say what the people of the United States know
when I aay that the chief characteristic of
Mr. Hughes ia the courage of his conviction!
in meeting the embarrassment of political op
position." Ex-President Taft.
Man of Strong Character
"I believe in the (character and courage of
the. nominee, of the republican party. He it
the mott conspicuous example in our history
of the possibilities that American politics may
hold for success In able and unselfish public
service." Raymond Robina.
What Dr. Wiley Says
"'I favor the election of Mr. Hughes because
of the apparent indifference of the administra
tion of President Wilson to the cause of pure
food and drug!. Practically all the abuses
which were injected into the pure food law
by the preceding administration still are in
force." Dr. Harvey W. Wiley (Democrat).
His Home County Should Back Fawcett.
White there are a dozen good reasons why
Judge Fawcett should have the support of citi
eni generally for chief juitice on the non-partisan
judicial ballot, at against his opponent, there
are special reatont why thit, hit home county,
should back Fawectt. '
Judge Fawcett served as a union soldier. For
years he practiced law here. He sat upon our
district' bench and was supreme court commis
sioner before he became a supreme judge, and in
each case with creditable record. He is now the
only member of the supreme court' from Douglas
county and if defeated thit county", with its one-
eighth of the state's population, anjl its vast com
mercial, financial and civic interests, will have no
one there with direct personal knowledge of the
problems of a metropolis.
Judge Fawcett was recommended for chief
justice, when the vacancy last occurred, by all his
colleagues on the bench and this recommendation
alone should be accepted, Dow for popular endorse
ment. 1
Pioneer Friend of Labor
"The first American executives to establish
workingmen't compensation and to atimulate
the 'Safety First' movement for the protection
of the lives and limbs of the worker! were
Roosevelt and Hughet." John Williams,
Commissioner of Labor of New York state,
under Governor Hughet.
Record of Patriotic Devotion

"Hit public career, aa well ai his public
statement!, give the assurance that hia de
cisions aa president will be based on cool
deliberation, courage and unquestioned 'de
votion to the country's Interest!." Herbert
S. Hadley, forme governor of Missouri.
Importance of the Aerial Army Station.
Omahant recall with much regret the removal
of the training school of the army signal corps
front port Omaha, where it was to well estab
lished, and where so much motley had been v.
nended on Its enuinment. Thia t-.vr.f k:i....
the interest felt in the prospect for the re-eatab-
lishment here of a training school for the aerial
corps of the new armv. the Order for Which ha.
been issued, but is being held up by the secretary
ot war. I he army appropriation btll passed by
the late congress earned an item of $13,881,666
for army aviation, and this ia now beinsr exnenrled
on the purpose for which it ii intended. Orders
are being placed for, flying machines of approved
types, for balloons suitable for army uses, and
for other forms of, equipment for the uses of
the corps. Schools are being fitted for training
the officer! and men who must have the exnert
knowledge required for" the service. The ad
vantages of Umaha, which led to the location of
the first of these training schools hern .;ii
known to the army staff, and thii easily led to
the order to reopen the training school at Fort
Omaha, where the big balloon house, the hangars,

also enhances the local indignation fett at the

Beveridge's Tribute to Hughes
"It it vital to our welfare that our president
should be clear in thought, plain in speech,
sound in judgment, firm in decision and so
trustworthy that he inspires personal con
fidence even In those who do not agree with
his policies. It is because J. know that he
fulfils every one of these requirements that
I am doing what I can and all I can to
help elect to the presidency Charles Evans
Hughes." Albert J. Beveridge. , 1
A Progressive' s Indorsement
"As a progressive I believe in nationalism.
So doei Hughes. I am certain that under
Hughes the progrestive policiet will fare
better than under Wilson, and that the aafety,
honor and welfare of the country 'will be in
immeasurably surer hands." Gifford Pinchot.
Despite the absorbing; influence nf th.
paign, occasionally a man it found so remote from
the turmoil as to excite public curiosity, While
bands were blaring, boys shouting and forums
trembling with the force oT sledge hammer argu
ments, a Philadelphia Drofeasnr
aud deciphered a Babylonian letter of 2300 B. C
no douht the protestor knew, that Pennsylvania
is safe and turned to regular business.
No one even contends that the rl.mnr.t;.
legislative candidates in this county anywhere
approach the republican lea-istative ticket ;
of ability, respectability or reliability. If Doug
las county wants its interests looked after satis
factorily at Lincoln next winter, the voters will
send a republican delegation down there tc, rfn
the job. i
Practical Friend of the Farmer
"His support of many wise measures and
his carefully worked out agricultural educa
tional plan show that Mr. Hughes had at
heart the permanent benefit of agriculture
when he was the chief executive of the
state." Charles S. Wilson, Commissioner of
Agriculture, New York state.
People and Events
Three judges sitting in the court of special ses
sions, New York City, held Miss Jessie Ashley
and two men guilty of violating the penal code
for distributing and selling literature on the sub
ject of birth control. Miss Ashley is a leader in
this so-called reform. She was let off with a fine
because she merely distributed the tracts, but
the men who profited by the sale won a jail term.
The daily flood of dime silk petticoats let
ters passed the 100,000 mark at the Minneapolis
postoffice and is growing at the rate of 25 per
cent a day. Last Saturday's inpouring carried
the total up to 700,000 letters. No one knows
when it will end. One woman victim sought
to console the perplexed postmaster by urging
him to add a nickel to her dime and take a
cocktail.
The noted library of James Carleton Young
of Minneapolis, said to be the finest collection
of inscribed books in the world, 2,414 volumes in
all, are being shipped to New York, where they
will be sold at auction this month. Some years
ago Mr. Young sought to present the collection
to the Congressional library, but some obstacles
? invented. Advancing age and inability to care
or the books prompted the present course.
Fuel prices in Greater New York are mount
ing by leaps and bounds. Hard coal is retailing
in some parts of Manhattan at $12 a ton and in
Brooklyn at $9. Predictions of $20 a ton for mid
winter are made by some dealers, and the pros
pect of a big squeeze increase daily. The cause
is spread over car shortage, reduced stocks and
scarcity of help. The percentage of manipulation
is not mentioned.
In sifting a bankruptcy case in Chicago
Judge Landis stumbled on a loan agent creditor,

the judge of the local agent. "Yes, sir," replied
the witness. "Nearly all vou men are active
church members," commented the judge, fhe

Charles Taze fiussett. commonly known as
"Pastor" Russell, whose sudden death on a
train in the southwest is announced, was a
Pittsburgh product, an independent booster of
righteousness beyond sect control. His influence
was extensive, because his sermonettes were
syndicated through many newspapers. He was
also producer of "miracle wheat," which he sold
as seed at $1 a pound. The Brooklyn Eagle ex
posed the Pastor Russell game and proved in
court that "miracle wheat" was Just plain wheat,
and much inferior to seed wheat in grain mar
kets. - .,

most of the National Guard down

with Mexico? Is there any real effort
being made to do the Job and get
out, according to our part of the con
tract. If not, why not? Or is it just
to prove how helpless we are, thfit we
have not enough of "prepardness" to
go get one enemy, to give strength
and votes to "My Policy of Peace and
Preparedness?" Why not take the
move In another light as an example
of what this administration would be

are candidates for the Board of Edu
cation "Self-seekers." .
Four years ago I was nominated by
voters writing my name in on the
ticket. I did not know that I was
thought of, until I saw by the papers
that I was nominated. I did not
spend a cent, nor ask any one to vote
for me, yet I was elected. I have
served four years, and have paid close
attention to the matters that come be
fore the board, doing what I thought
was right in each case.

My friends circulated the peti

tended to do as I did four years ago
mat is, say nothing about my candi
dacy, but to let the masses of our
people, the real citizens select eight
men out of the nineteen names on the
ticket and be satisfied with the result.
But when the self-appointed commit
tee came out with the "slate," ignor

of the board, Dr. E. Holovtchiner, W.
A. Foster, and myself, I felt the Insult
