American
Casualty List
Patriotism Flaunted to Jurn
Attention from Ancestry
and Connections of
Candidates.
Democrats hereabouts, and also
thereabouts, are raising: consider
able dust by their claims of a
monopoly on patriotism. In vaude
ville there is a stock expression
which noes, "The American flag has
saved many a rotten act." So it
goes with the democrats, who try
to cash in by associating pictures
of their candidates with pictures of
(the president, and by otherwise
parading patriotism fr partisan
purposes.
In this respect the republican
county candidates and the state can
didates as well, speak for them
selves. An analysis of the republi
can list of candidates needs no
blatant bellowings to command at
tention. If a test were needed on
the basis of American-born per cent,
the republican candidates would
need no defense; but inasmuch as
the democrats have made their
boasts, they invite exposure.
German Connections.
The records in the election com
mhsioner's office show that Michael
L. Entires, county treasurer seeking
re-election, was born in Germany.
He was naturalized in Omaha only
14 years ago. He has always
banked on German support.
The father of Congressman Lo
beck was born in Prussia, and Lo
beck's family connections are large
ly German. Albert W. Jefferis
and W. G. Shriver, republican can
didates for congress and treasurer,
respectively, are native Americans.
Do the democrats want any more
:omparisons?
Pot Shot at Mullen.
The democrats have addled their
own political eggs, wherefore they
are beside themselves these days.
If they do not get it from one side,
they get it from the other, and so it
goes all through the livelong day.
A democratic publication takes pot
shot at "King" Arthur Mullen, dem
ocratic national committeeman for
Nebraska, and printe regent of
local democratic politics.
To quote: "Arthur Mullen put his
foot into a bad bit of mud the other
day when he said for publication
that the government made a mistake
when it gave the colored man a vote.
Arthur wou4d not do very well if he
bad to depend on Nebraska negroes
tor support.
Jefferis Sentiment Grows.
- An unprejudiced canvass of the
Second congressional district situa
tion in Omaha reveals a growing
sentiment in favor of Jefferis, who
hag been making an aggressive per
sonal campaign. Having been thor
oughly informed of the congres
sional recxd of Mr. Lobeck, people
of .all classes know why they would
prefer to have Jefferis represent
them in the national legislative halls.
The name tf Lobeck. has ceased to
cause a ripple even in Swedish cir
cles. v McKelvie Here.
Samuel R. McKelvie, republican
candidate for governor, came into
Omaha Tuesday morning to spend
a few days in this vicinity.
have traveled 3,000 miles by
automobile through most of the
counties and I found a surprising
interest among the people," he
state'd.' "Lbad an average attend-
ance of 200 at tne meetings I at
tended before the closing order
stopped gatherings. I foujid a wide-
" spread determination to put the
Hitchcock-Mullen machine out of
business. From a republican point
of view, the state situation is prom
ising, and I base that opinion on
my observations all over the state
during the last five weks."
M motto Loyafto U. S.,
Says Attorney Becker
New York, Oct. 29. Alfred' L.
Becker, deputy attorney general of
New York, issued a statement to
day, intended, as he said, to clear
Coun.. James Minotto of any previ
ous suspicion that his association
with the principals in the Cailleux
Luxburg conspiracy to bring about
a separate peace between France
and Germany in 191SL pointed to
his guilty participation in the plot.
Elaborating his announcement
that Minotto had talked with the ut
most freedom in preparing a sworn
statement for the use of the French
government in the prosecution of
Joseph Caillaux, former premier, for
hrgh treason, Mr. Becker declared
that Minotto's deposition was made
with a desire to be of assistance to
the American and French govern
ments. The deputy attorney gen
eral expressed his belief that Mi
notto never was a conscious agent
of the German gortrnment and, al
though interned as an enemy alien,
is "wholly loyal to the United
f States."
Montenegrin King Rejoices
- In Independence of Slavs
Faris, Monday, Oct. 28. King
Nicholas of Montenegro has sent a
declaration to the Jugo Slavs in
which,, after expressing his joy over
President Wilson's reply to Austria
and affirming the independence of
the union of Jugo Navs, he said:
"I declare solemnly that Monte
negro must become a constituent
part of Jugo Slavia."
fc The king advocated a confederated
Jugo Slavia, in which each state
would be tqual and would retain
Its rights, institutions and religion.

IOWA PROTESTS
WILSON'S SLUR
ON LOYAL G.O.P
Lodge's Two-Word Platform,
"Unconditional Surrender,"
. Endorsed by Earnest
Patriots.
Shenandoah, Ia.. Oct. 29. (Spe
cial Telegram.) The following
message was sent to Will H. Hays.
New York; Senators Lodge .and
Kenyon and Congressman Horace
Towner, Washington, D. C, and
Governor Harding, Des Moines, by
the republican committeemen of
Shenandoah, Ia.:
"Republicans of Shenandoah and
southwest Iowa unanimously resent
the insinuation of President Wilson
that a democratic congress is
necessary to winning the war. We
stand aghast at Wilson's appeal for
the power of a Caesar. We believe
that republicans in congress who
have led legislation for national pre
paredness and for. vigorous prose
cution of the war can more safely
be trusted as hundred-per-cent
Americans to make peace terms with
Germany than democrats of the
Kitchin-Dent-Clark type, who have
obstructed that legislation.
"We endorse "Senator Lodge's
two-word platform of 'unconditional
surrender' and oppose any peace
by negotiation. We deplore the pnr
tisianship of the president, who
seeks to condemn and defeat loyal
republican congressmen who have
led in putting through great war
measures and who tfives a Ixjankct
endorsement to democratic con
gressmen who have opposed those
measures and who now hold posi
tions of power as chairmen of the
principal committees in congress.
"Keep this thought before the
American people and our allies in
the world war: "And let it be k"nwn
that loyal Iowa, which is sacrificing
so many of its sons on the battle
field of France and which has gone
over the top on every war activity
will do it again next Tuesday by
sending a solid republican delega
tion to congress.'"
Signed by: Frank Mullison, W. W.
Benedict, C. K. Marvin, republican
committeemen for Shenandoah.
Two Flyers Killed.

Howard D. Burnett and How
ell W. Williams of Barron field

Country Clubs May x
Use Coal When There is
Surplus, Says Garfield
Washington, Oct. 29. Country
clubs are allowed to use bituminous
or steam anthracite coal whenever
in the opinioi. of the state fuel ad
ministrator there is a surplus of this
fuel for the purpose, under an order
today by Fuel Administrator Gar
field. They will not be permitted to
use domestic sizes of the anthracite
coal for cooking or heating.
Excess Profit Tax Will
Apply to Individuals
Washington, Oct. 29. War ex
cess profits taxes imposed only up
on corporations in the war revenue
bill as it passed the house were ex- j
tended by the senate finance com
mittee today to individuals and part
nerships in trade or business.
