ORGANIZE PARTY
.Wisconsin Senator in Loyalty
Speech at Lincoln Conven
tion, Discusses War and
Politics.
(From i SUff CorrMpondent.)
JLincoln, May 28. (Special.) Sen
ator I. L. Lenroot of Wisconsin de
livered a stirring address to the
republican loyalty convention today.
He said in part:
"A year ago America accepted the
decision of war but without great en
thusiasm. While the nation respond
ed loyally to every appeal and made
plain that it would stand back of (he
government in the prosecution of the
war, the minds of many of our peo
ple were vague and confused as to
our aims and purposes. For nearly
three years Europe has been fighting,
and during that entire time, it was
the hope and. expectation that Amer
ica would not become involved. The
' presidential campaign of 1918 was
won by President Wilson upon the
issue that 'He kept us out of war.'
i "While the invasion of Belgium in
the early days of the war, thus violat
ing its neutrality, shocked us, while
the admission by the German- officials
that the Belgian treaty was to be
considered as nothing but a 'scrap of
paper,' troubled us, we still looked
upon it as a European quarrel that
, did not directly concern us. How
ever as the days, and months, and
years went by, it became more clear
that this was not a European quarrel
' over the balance of power or for
commercial rivalry, but that there
was a deepset purpose in the minds
of the autocracy of Germany to con
quer and rule the world.
War Begins to Loom.
"The sinking of the Lusitania was
one of the greatest crimes in history,
but Germany's promise that the of
fense would not be repeated made us
feel that if she did not have any con
cern for, the laws of humanity, she
did fear us and respect our rights,
but on January 31, 1917, when Ger-
; many announced that he would re
, lume her, ruthless and unrestricted
submarine warfare, it became plain
to us all who were familiar with the
facts in the situation, that peace could
not much longer continue between
the United States and the German
i government.
"Germany carried out her threats
she did sink American vessels, did
destroy American lives, did attempt
to influence the American congress
by the use of money, did by her au
thorized spies and agents destroy
American property, and the result
was the declaration of war on April
6, 1917. It was unfortunate that in
the early days of this war the aims
and purposes of America were so
vaguely stated by those in authority.
War to Save America,
,."We realise more fully " now than
. ' we aia men, tnat tns is not a war
primarily to make the world 'safe for
Democracy aitnougn jt will do that
when it is wonit is not primarily to
, restore Belgium or safeguard the
rights and liberties pf small nations,
. although it will do that when it is
wonit is not, except incidentally,
to protect our rights upon the seas,
although those rights are included in
what, we fight for this is really a
war to save America, to preserve
American ideals and the principles
upon whjch this great republic was es
tablished. We are in it, and it must
to on until we win it. '
Forget Party Lines.
."In the conduct of this war there
should be no politics, no partisanship.
Patriotism never should be a political
ssue t cannot properly be a political
Issue between loyal Americans. What
ver. differences may exist between
political parties, there should be no
difference in the support of our gov
' efnment in tiroe of war. In all mat
ters in relation to the conduct of h
war, party lines should be forgotten,
; and every one they are republicans or
democrats, but remember only that
we are all Americans.
"Nevertheless, political parties
: Ihould be instrumentalities for the
f creation of a correct public sentiment
in the support of the war, and the
subject of my talk today is "The
Patriotism of the Republican Party."
, T t was a deep and burning patriotism
that created the republican party and
that patriotism is as active today in
this crisis as it was in its earlier days.
' Used Rigb,t. of Criticism.
t "Republicans have constantly kept
in mind the need of a united country
and that it is better to endure to a
certain point some evils than to bring
en greater ones through their ex
posure. We had hoDed as the month

We have always, however, asserted
our rights to criticize when criticism
would be helpful, and we shall ex
cise mat ngnt in the future.

tration of the government. In every
other nation associated with us in this
war there are coalition cabinets rep
resenting the whole people. In the
United States alone the administra
tion side of the government has been
conducted in a partisan way, and yet,
republicans have ungrudgingly given
the administration their support and
will continue to do so.
Case Prom New Hampshire.
"Last year there was an election to
fill a vacancy in New Hampshire
caused by the death of Mr. Sulloway,
a republican. In the campaign follow
ing, democratic orators sent into that
district by the democratic national
committee, in their speeches stated
that a vote for the republican candi
date was a vote for the kaiser. Never
theless, the republican candidate was
elected and he has been a loyal sup
porter of all war measures since he
has been a member of the house. He
was known to be loyal throughout
the campaign, but for the sake of
political advantage alone, democrats
tried to place the stamp of disloyalty
upon the republican candidate and the
republican party in New Hampshire.
In Indiana.
"Last June there was a special elec
tion in Indiana to fill a vacancy
caused by the death of Mr. Comstock,
a republican. The republicans nomi
nated a loyal supporter of the war
the democrats nominated a man who
had been a member of congress until
March 4, 1917; a man who was a pro
fessed pacifist; a man who had op
posed preparedness measures in con
gress, preparedness measures advo
cated by President Wilson. Neverthe
less, President Wilson, in a letter, en
dorsed the pacifist candidate, but, as
in New Hampshire, the republican
candidate was elected and he has
been a loyal supporter of all war
measures in. the house.
Partisan Spirit Shown.
"The first partisan speech made on
the floor of either house of congress
since the war began was made on
January 21 of this year in the senate
by a democrat. His text was: 'Repub
lican leaders in and out of congress
are undoubtedly seeking to make pol
itics out of this war.' This speech was
followed on February 4 by the inser
tion in the record by Mr. Ferris, a
democratic member of the house, of
an editorial by ex-Governor Flynn,
bitterly attacking the republican
party. A few weeks afterward Mr.
Ferris was elected chairman of the
democratic congressional committee.
Methods of Democracy.
"A little later the Wisconsin sen
atorial campaign came on and I shall
touch upon that only because it re
veals the methods and unfairness of
the democratic party, and we must
be prepared to meet like methods in
the campaign next fall.
"The finger of suspicion had unjust
ly been pointed at the loyalty of Wis
consin. Loyalty was the issue. I was
nominated as the republican candidate
upon that issue. Although as a mem
ber of -the house I had voted for the
declaration of war and every war
measure since although President
Wilson had frequently called me to
the White House to confer upon war
measures and I had by speeches and
votes and in every possible way sup
ported him, an attack was begun upon
the loyalty of the republican nominee.
I regret to say that such attack was
participated in by President Wilson
in an indirect way. It was followed by
the democratic- national committee,
by the democratic candidate, by the
democratic newspapers and by a score
of democratic senstors and repre
sentatives sent to Wisconsin.
What Voters Told.
"The voters of Wisconsin were told
they could not be loyal unless they
supported the democratic candidate.
Billboards from one end of the state
to the other were covered with the
statement that 'Wilson wants
Davis,' 'His defeat will bring joy
to Potsdam and gloom to Washing
ton.' Finally. Vice President Mar
shall came into the state. In a' speech
at Madison, capital, he said: 'I came
to Wisconsin to find if 100,000 re
publicans will not count the loss of
partisanship cheap if thereby Wis
consin may be saved to the union.'
He said some other things, which I
shall refer to in a few moments.
"The Wisconsin soldiers still in the
United States, under the statutes of
the state, had the right to vote at
their camps. A large number of them
were stationed at Lamp Grant, at
Rockford, 111. A few days before the
election the following advertisement
was published, two columns width, in
Kocktord paper: 'lo the Wiscon
sin soldiers at Camp Grant, Tuesday,
April 2: You are entitled to vote
for United States senator from Wis
consin to succeed Senator Paul O.
Hustings President Wilson, your
commander-in-chief, desires all. loyal
mcncans to vote ior Joseph i,
Davies for United States senator.
Davies election means joy at Wash
ington and gloom at Berlin. Davies'
defeat means gloom at Washington
and joy it Berlin.' To say to soldiers
in the service that their commander-in-chief
desires them to vote a certain
way is indefensible from any stand
point. I, ot course, treely acquit Pres
ident Wilson of any knowledee of this
outrage. It may be interesting to

note what the vote of this camp fol
lowing this appeal to obey their commander-in-chief
was. The republican
nominee received 576 votes at this
camp and the democratic candidate
403 votes.
Method of Republicans.
"I have taken the time to recite
these facts only because they indicate
the policy that the democratic party
will pursue in the fall elections. Re
publicans will resent these methods
wherever employed, but they will not
retaliate by using similiar methods.
Republicans will not attack the loyalty
of President Wilson 'or the demo
cratic party. On the contrary they
will continue to support the demo
cratic administration in all necessary
war measures in the future as they
have in the past. The republican
party in this war is not following the
example of the democratic party in
the Civil war. Comparisons are odious,
but in view of what has transpired
we have a right to compare the pa
triotism of the republican paty in
this war with that of the democratic
party in the civil war.
Will Stand Loyal.
"To win this war organization is
necessary and every existing organiza
tion should be utilized, both republi
can and democratic organizations
can be most helpful; every speech
that is made in the campaign should
be a loyalty speech, with everjr
speaker 'America first, partizanship
second,' should be the controlling
sentiment. No opportunity should be
lost by either party to impress upon
the people the righteousness and jus
tice of the war and that we must
fro on with it until we win it. Presi
dent Wilson may not call republicans
into consultation; he may not appoint
republicans in his cabinet, neverthe
less, republicans will support him in
all proper war measures, because he is
the president of the United btates, be
cause he is commander-in-chief of the
army and navy. If democrats desert
him in the future as in the past, on
vital war measures, the republicans
will furnish votes enough to put them
through, but in doing so we support
a government of which we are a part,
and neither senators nor congressmen
should be rubber stamps.
"The republican party is fortunate
in that it is not compelled to r,aise
any false issues in the coming cam
paign. We do not need to attack the
loyalty of the democrats to make an
issue. We hope every democratic nom
inee next fall will be loyal in support
of the war and that the only issue
between the two parties will be, which
can best be trusted to wisely legislate
i:i matters indirectly connected with
the warjand meet and solve the great
economic questions which will con
front us following the war. Upon this
issue the republican party is supreme
ly confiedent of the verdict of the
American people." '

Sure Way To Get
Rid Of Dandruff
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de.
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and, rub it in gently vwith the
linger tips. v
By morning: most if not all of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
bow much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be Huffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky, and soft, and
look and leel a hundred times better.
You can .get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fall.

LUTHER A. HARMON
NOW COMES OUT
WITH STATEMENT
Prominent Retired Omaha
Business Man Gives
Tanlac a Test.
Few persons m Omaha are better
the local business world than Luther
A. Harmon, who for forty years was
a prominent member of the firm of
Harmon & Weeth Coal company, but
who is now retired from active busi
ness life. Mr. Harmon lives at 3711
North Twentieth street, and in telling
the other day of his remarkable re
covery through the use of Tanlac
from a severe stomach trouble said:
"For some time back I had been
suffering terribly from a disordered
stomach. I had no appetite and the
little I forced down would sour on
my stomach and distress me for
hours. I did not seem to assimilate
my food and for several months I had
been falling off in weight. I was
badly constipated and suffered con
stantly from dull headaches and I
would often have spells of dizziness
and felt as if I was going to fall.
Rheumatism in my left . leg made
walking so painful to me that it was
no pleasure for me to go out afoot.
"Hearing Tanlac spoken- of so
highly I got a bottle and was agree
ably surprised at the way it - took
hold of my troubles. Really, it acted
exactly like it was made specially for
my case, for right after the first few
doses my appetite picked up and I
began to eat and enjoy my meals, my
stomach trouble was soon relieved
and I can now digest and assimilate,
my food as good as ever, which ii
proved by the fact that I have re
gained all my lost weight and am
back to normal again. That consti
pation that troubled me so much has
been corrected, headaches and dizzy
spells have totally disappeared and
my rheumatism hardly ever brothers
me at all, so that I can now enjoy my
daily walks once more.
"My wife seeing how rapidly I im
proved said that as she had such a
poor appetite she felt the need of a
tonic for her stomach. 'Well,' I said
to her, 'you can't do better than to
take Tanlac; it has fixed me up all
right.' She followed my advice and
since taking Tanlac says that she
Tanlac has brought us that we art
both so delighted with the relief that'
Tanlac has brought up that we are
glad to recommend it to all other
sufferers."
