REPUBLICANS
SHOULD STAND
BY THEIR PARTY
Chairman Beach Gives Some
Reasons Why Voters Should
Put Patriotism Above
Politics.
' From a Staff Correspondent.
' Lincoln. Nov. 2. (Special.) As
the i campaign comes to the close,
Chairman E. D. Beach of the re
publican state committee gives out
the following to the voters of Ne
' braska as reasons why the repub
lican candidates should be elected.
He compares the two old parties
and given seven reasons at least
why the voters should voe for the
party which is putting patriotism
above politics:
The republican ticket ought to
be elected:
1. 3ecause a republican victory
nationally is the most emphatic
expression in favor of a peace
.based upon victory by our arms
and unconditional surrender by
Our enemies.
, 2. Because the republican party
. nationally has won the confidence
of the country by placing the pros
ecution of the war above party ,-.
interest.
, 3. Because the following repub
Jican principles in the coming re
construction period will bring
sound economic conditions and
social progress.
,4. Because in the state of Ne
v braska the republican party is an
agency responsive to the public
will, while the democratic party
is an agency responsive to a po
litical machine whose operation
ill good Nebraskans, both repub
licans and freedemocrats, de
plore. 5. Because the republican state
. platform is clear cut. definite and
progressive, while the democratic
itate platform excels only in its
evasiveness.
6. Because the republican party
is pledged by its platform to na
tional prohibition, while the dem
ocratic party, was evidenced by its
platform, seeks to dodge the issue
while its record in the past in this
state brands it as the "booze"
party.
7. Because the republican party
favors equal suffrage in the state
and nation, and its representatives
have supported that movement.
while the democratic party, not
withstanding its platform, has
shown its real position by the vote
of Senator Hitchcock, the master
emchanic of the machine, who
voted against woman suffrage
when the president of the United
States appealed to him to vote for
it as a necessary war measure. '
Fremont Girl "Over There"
Writes of Customs in Paris
Fremont, Neb., Nov. 2. (Special.)
Miss Nellie Wilkins of Fremont,
who is with the American forces in
France writes of an air raid she
witnessed recently. Thx last raid
lasted nearly two hours, but little
damage resulted. "I like the French
people but their customs are so dif
ferent from ours," Miss Wilkins
writes. "It is strange to go into a
restaurant and see the women drink
ing wine and smoking cigarets."
Miss Wilkins said she thinks she
will be able to spend Christmas of
1919 in her home.

Austrian Mobs Are in
Character of Bolsheviki
Copenhagen, Nov. 2. (By Asso

The people of Vienna appear for
the moment content with the fact
that the new German-Austrian gov
ernment is exercising all powers
without reference to the emperor.
Some action will soon be neces
sary, however, the correspondent
adds, because the crowds maintain
a steady vigil before the Parliament
buildings and some "have a dis
tinctly bolshevik character."
The Austro-German deputies who
addressed the crowds had the great
est difficulty in making the soldiers
understand that the new govern
ment has not the power to bring
about peace, but must await events.
