FOREHEAD WILL
FOLLOW WILSON
LEAD JFEUECTED
Democratic Candidate for Unit
ed States Senator Favors
Administration Action
in War.
Lincoln. Aug. 31. (Special.) Ex
Governor Morehead on his way home
has given out a formal signed state
ment addressed "to tne democrats of
Nebraska" thanking them for nomin
ating him for United States senator
with assurance that he will, if elected,
try to make as creditable a record as
in other offices he has held. On the
war he says:
"I fcm thoroughly in accord with
the administration of President Wil
son. If elected, I will support the
government in every effort to prose
cute the war vigorously and bring
it to a successful conclusion. On the
question of peace terms, I will sup
port and follow the lead of President
Wilson.
Agrees With Lodge.
"I agree with the recent statement
of Senator Lodge of Massachusetts
that we must not have a negotiated
peace, but one dictated by the allies.
By frauc and force the imperial Ger
man government is seeking to domin
ate the world. It recognizes no laws
of God, no laws of nations, no hu
manity, and seeks only to desecrate
and destroy. Like a vampire it seeks
to suck.the life blood of humanity
and civilization. Therefore this war
must continue until the German em
pire as a monstrous imperialistic ma
chine is wholly destroyed. Any peace
terms which do not end the curse
and dread of militarism, which do not
provide for the security of the small
and weak nation' against the stronger
and larger state, which do not end
barbarity, rapine and plunder and the
dream of empire, would be a reproach
to civilization and a hollow mockery
of our best blood which is making the
supreme sacrifice. As a nation we
are willing to make the sacrifice, but
it must not be in vain.
Wants Profiteer Suppressed.
" I stand with President Wilson's
administration in seeking to suppress
the profiteer and to place the principal
financial burden of the war upon the
large incomes accruing in large part
from war profits.
"In adjustments to be made after
the war, due regard must be had for

Boy Scout Executive
Goes to Pittsburgh
to Accept Better Job
C. H. English, executive of the Boy
Scouts of Omaha, states that the
termination of his services with this
organization has nothing to do with
any dissatisfaction there may be with
the administration of affairs locally.

reconsider my action, but I felt that
I had such a better proposition in
Pittsburgh that I could not afford to
remain in Omaha, much as I have
enjoyed the work here," Mr. English
stated.
Mr. English will have charge of the
public playground system of Pitts

a federal position which adds to the

"The
Good
Die
Young"
People already past
middle age must find
eolace in their "second
childhood."
If I were as good as some people profess to be, I
should like to die for fear I could not keep it up. It Is
said to be hard to "live DOWN a reputation," but 1 fear
it would be harder to live UP TO the reputations some
people give themselves.
No one would notice the bully standing in the saloon
door, but if the Minister was seen there, everyone would
be shocked because he was not "living UP to his repu
tation." I have always managed to take care of myself and
my enemies, but some of my well-meaning friends, who
sit up nights worrying over me and stand up by day to
give me good advice, are putting in too much time trying
to "live UP to their reputations."
I am not a philanthropist, nor an evangelist, but an
ordinary citizen with a determination to be more than an
ordinary Dentist.
I have never knowingly done any man a wrong. I
am answerable only to the law of my country and my
own conscience for my acts.
I have been accused of "Caesar's crime," namely,
"being ambitious" and many who would be "Brutuses"
stand ready to help me "die young" to curb this danger
ous ambition.
Yes, I am ambitious ambitious to raise the standard
of dentistry ambitious to rob dentistry of pain and terror
ambitious to make it impossible to practice dentistry
and extortion in the 6ame profession and ambitious to
carry out this ambition in a "Painless Withers Dental
Office" in every city in America where people belive in
me and my "ambitions."
That is my offense that is WHY some people paint
me in anything but glowing colors that is why I am not
going to "die young," and why I am glad that I can be
human, act humanly, and live humanly, without danger of
injuring my "reputation." -
I am looking forward to relief in "second child
hood." Painless Withers Dental Co.
