FEAR ATTEMPT
: TO COLOR NEWS
j FROM WAR FRONT
.National Chairman Hays
i Warns Republicans Against
Any Attempt to Stam-.
I pede Voters.
Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 4. (Special
Telegram.) Attempts to color war
news from Europe at the last hour
in order to influence the election
Is feared by officers of the national
republican committee at Washing-
ton, according to the following
telegram received late this after
noon by Chairman Beach of the re
publican state committee:
"Publication today of full page
i. advertisement by democratic com
mittee all over the country evidences
their desperation. This of course
will have no effect on result, neither
will their statement from Hoover.
Reports from all over the country
still better this morning. Advise
republican newspapers to bear con
stantly in mind the fact that all
foreign news is subject to censor
ship of Creel and kindred bureaus
and to be on guard tonight and to
morrow against any eleventh hour
attempt '.i color the news from Eu
rope. Victory is ahead of us sure.
Don't leave anything undone to
make this overwhelming.
; "WILL H. HAYS."
The advertisement mentioned by
Chairman Hays has already ap
peared and the coloring of war news
to suit political ends would be going
no farther than the national dem
ocratic committee has already
shown itself capable of going, in the
opinion of Mr. Beach.
The state chairman believes the
battle adready won for the republi
can ticket. If the voter stands firm
and refuses to be stampeded by
"gas attacks" at the last moment,
tte election will close Tuesday night
with a grand victory all along the
line, he says.

CITY COAL YARO
INSTIGATOR OF
MERRYRUMPUS
Teeming Words and Personal
ities Shouted Broadcast at
Public Meeting in the '
Council Chamber.
Hot words flew thick and fast,
men shook their fists under other
men's noses, the chairman rapped in
vain for order, -city commissi iners
dared the 'voters to recall the n if
they didn't like the way they were
doing things and in genera' the
meeting in the city council cham
ber last night reminded some old
timers of "the good old days."
The "hornet's nest" was stirred
up at a' public meeting called to dis
cuss the municipal coal yard. A
score of coal men were there a .d
several score of coal consumers.
The coal men's case was presented
first by Attorney John Stout, who
pointed out that the ordinance un
der which the coal yard is run, pr -vides
that it shall be run only while
there is an emergency and people
are unable, to get coal through the
regular channels.
After he was through Tony Don
ohue, prominent union labor man,
made a speech in which he declar
ed that not only should the city sell
coal but also provisions, flour, po
tatoes and "everything else."
"Fireworks" Start.
Then the real "fireworks" started.
J. J. Foy leaped to his feet and with
fists flailing around he uttered the
words for which he was later "call
ed down" by at least three com
missioners. "We not only ask to have thft
yard continued but we insist on
it," he cried. "Cou are our servants
and if you don't do as we want
there's another election coming."
There was much more of the
same tenor. Finally, when many
citizens had bad their say, Mayor
Smith arose and pointed out that
the resolution does not call for the
abolishment of the municipal coal
yard but merely for limiting the
amounts sold so that the poor peo
ple will get the coal
Commissioner Towl declared that
"just because a man comes up here
all excited" is no reason why his
arguments are wise. Commissioner
Zimman laid down the law, declar
ing that "while it isn't the function
of the city to run a coal yard ex
cept in cr.se of emergency, I will
vote for this resolution. But it is
not wise. I'll tell you where I stand
and if you don't like it you can re
call me,
Ure Wins Applause.
A tall young man, who had been
making copious notes in a red book,
jumped up to make his fifth speech
and Commissioner Ure won wild
aj-lause when he stopped him and
shook a finger at him, declaring,
"I'd advise you, young man, to look
other people in the face and see tha'
you're not the only honest man in
this room."
Commissioner Ringer opened a
vigorous speech by referring to
"that silly threatening stuff which
one man 'pulled' here tonight and
that no real man is afraid of."
At one point a couple of "hells"
were exchanged when Commissioner
Ure declared that Commissioner
Butler has refused to submit a re
port of the yard's operations. At
another time Mayor Smith had to
leap to the' chair and beat wildly
wilh the gavel to restore order.
Finally at 11:45 o'clock, with
everybody tired out. a motion pre
vailed to continue the question for
two weeks to give Butler a chance
to submit a cost accounting to show
what the coal is costing the city.
Commissioner Falconer was absent.

You need iron in the blood ! Every
healthy man or woman should have
abov.l as much iron in his or hor
boJy as there is in an ordinary
"tenpenny" nail. To gain this iron,
the best way is to take an iron-tonic,
called " Iron-tic," a combination of
iron in its most soluble form, dis
covered by Dr. Pierce and experi
mented with by his physicians at the
Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y.
M Iron-tic" is a form of iron readily taken up by the blood, the blood
cells get round, rich-red in color, the cheeks are pink, the appetite
improves, and one feels full of " snap "" pep "" vigor "instead of
tired before the day is half done. The eyes take on a luster and the
body feels that tingle which one gets from a cold bath. If you want tc
try this new "Iron-tic" Tablet send 10 cents to the Surgical Institute in
Buffalo, N. Y., and obtain a trial package. This 20th-century Iron tonic
is sure tc do you good. Druggists sell " Iron-tic " for sixty cents
