NETTIE E. BAUER
HAS WORD FOR
WOMAN VOTERS
' Makes Plea For Organization
and Co-Operation in Speech
Here Sure Amendment
Will Be Ratified.
ett!e E. Bauer, sent to Nebraska
y tlie women's division of the re
publican national cormnittee, yes
terday afternoon told the republic
an women of Omaha, at an address
in the Lyric building, that she was
confident that national suffrage
will be effective in time for the
women oi this state to come into
full vote for the primary April 20.
- She brought an inspiriting, mes
sage to the women who are entering
into party organization and the
ramifications of party politics and
urircd the women to join the re
publican party.
The meeting was called to yder
by Mrs. Draper Sniitli, chairman of
the local republican women's com
mittee. She introduced Mrs. M. D.
Cameron of the state central com
mittee. Urges Organization.
"Nonpartisaiiship means non
effectiveness," Miss Bauer told the
women. "You can not be effective
outside of the party. You must
have organization and co-operation.
"Women must remember that
their duty to their country did not
end when the war was over. Wc
must continue our patriotism.
"Women must learn that the ma
jority rules and they must not get
peeved if the minority can not
always have its way. You have been
knocking at the gate so long that
you may think you can have your
own way in everything. I believe
in evolution, rather than revolution.
"I believe that Nebraska should
have at least one women representa
tive in congress in 1923 and I think
there will be at least 48 women in
congress that year.
Men Ready to Co-Operate
'I find that you have liberal pri
mary laws here in Nebraska and I
also find that the men are ready and
willing to cc -(.'Derate with the wom
en in the fiehPof politics."
Miss Ban-T reminded the women
that 90 per cent of the republicans
in the lower house of congress and
86 per cent in the senate voted for
the suffrage amendment.
"Women rre interested in organi
sation work ar.d we have all learned
what orirai'ization work really
means." Mrs. Cameron said. "We
must have purpose and principle for
effective organisation work. The re
publican oarty has purposes and it
stands for sound principles. The
history of the party is the best evi
. dence.
Partisan Work New.
".Partisan work is new to women
vho have not learned to think of
each other in terms of party affi
liation. We have a vision of what
the ballot means to American homes
and to our party. We must carry
cut our citizenship with wisdom.
"One thinn we must have in our
work and that is men. Wc need
comradeship and co-operation. We
need practical, common sense, fear
loss men in our work."
Harley G. Moorliead, election
commissioner, was equal to the oc
casion of explaining the operations
of the primary and election laws. He
advised the women to vote early,
but made no reference to voting
often. By voting early, he explained,
the working men in the evening
would not be delayed.
Allowed Four Ballots.
He also stated that the women
are entitled by law to four ballots,
which allows for three which may
he spoiled in marking. He added
that the signing of ballots by voters
will invalidate them.
An opinion given by Charles E.
Hughes to Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Catt heartened the women in the
belief that favorable action in Dela
ware would mean the full vote
forthwith.
Rotary Club Subscribes
$5,000 to Boy Scout Fund
Frresh impetus was given to the
campaign in Omaha to raise $35,000
' for the Boy Scout movement when
members of the Rotary club volun
tarily subscribed $5,000 to the fund
at the regular noon luncheon in
the ballroom at the Hotel Fon
tenelle yesterday. This brings the
total subscribed to $20,000. The
club hopes to complete the cam
paign within two weeks.
The discussion of plans to carr
the Boy Scout campaign to a sat-
, isfactory conclusion consumed niosi
of the time at the luncheon, so
- that it was impossible for some of
.the features of the regular program
to be given. The scheduled ad
l dresses of Charles Steinbaugh and
I Ray Gould, for this reason, will be
given at the next meeting of the
J. club.

Over The Political Fence
If "all is fair in love and war,"
will the same rule apply to poli
tics, now that women have entered
this field of activity? Is chivalry
to be discarded in the realms of
politics? These questions have been
asked by Anxious Inquirer.
Charles E. Foster, police magis
trate, evidently takes a chivalrous
view of the situation. When he
learned that he and Mrs. Draper
Smith were rival candidates for the
one delegateship which the Seventh
precinct oi the Ninth ward is en
titled to in the republican county
convention, he withdrew his name
rather than enter into a contest with
a woman. Mrs. Smith is chairman
of the republican women's commit
tee. It has been hinted that the mo
tive which impelled the judge to
withdraw was the prospect of be
ing defeated by a woman. Those
who are more charitably inclined
credit him with chivalrous motives.
Charles L. Altstadt has likewise
withdrawn as candidate for delegate
to the republican county convention
from the Third precinct of the
Sixth ward, leaving Mrs. Blanche
J. Horn without a contest for this
seat.
"I want women," said H. G.
Moorhead, election commissioner,
explaining that he wanted them to
register for the April primary and
he wants theni to register early. He
explained that only 7,500 have regis
tered to date and he wtints to avoid
a rush during the last few days of
the registration, which will be
closed April 9 for the primary.
"I have an extra staff of clerks
ready to receive the registrants,"
he said, "and it would facilitate the
work all around if the women will
come early and avoid the rush."
The election commissioner spoke
yesterday afternoon at a meeting of
republican women in the Lyric
building. He explained the opera
tion of the registration and election
tion of registration and election laws.
Harry A. Fischer has withdrawn
as republican candidate for the
Water board, which leaves this con
test between Frank A. Shotwell and
C. M. Wilhelm.
The election commissioner's of
fice will be open next Saturday to
9 p. m.. for the accommodation of
men and women who wish to regis
ter or to revise their registrations.
"Interest in public "affairs, national,
state and city, should be ever pres
ent and active and not abated from
one year's end to the other. Every
public duty is honorable," said the
late William McKinley.
W. J. Bryan will speak at Fre
mont next Saturday afternoon, ac
cording to information received
here yesterday from Dan J. Steph
ens, former congressman and present
candidate for delegate-at-large to the
democratic national convention on
the Bryan slate. Mr. Bryan will come
to Omaha from Fremont to speak

Nebraska Decides
JOHN J. PERSHING
NEBRASKANS show your colors!
Let the world know where you stand.
Are you going to join with California in put
ting that state's Favorite Son across?
Are you going to play, "second fiddle" to
New Hampshire by helping that state make a
New Hampshire man President?
-s
Or are you, as you should, going to join with
"other Nebraskans in giving your own Favorite
Son the biggest majority a candidate ever re
ceived? The final date for filing in Nebraska has
passed.
Lowden, Harding, Poindexter and all the
other "Presidential Possibilities," with the ex
ception of two, have conceded Nebraska to its
own son, JOHN J. PERSHING.
Nebraska Republicans will choose between
JOHNSON of California, WOOD of New Hampshire,
and PERSHING OF NEBRASKA. Of these three,
Nebraskans will, as a matter of course, unite on their
own citizen, General Pershing, especially when that
citizen has so well proved his splendid qualifications
or the office.
If any state, from Maine to California, or from
Michigan to New Mexico, could claim Pershing as its
citizen that state would propose his availability for
President with the unanimous support of the electorate
of the state. NEBRASKA CAN NOT DO LESS.
Nebraska has intelligent citizens.
Nebraska has as much initiative as California or
New Hampshire'.
Nebraska is as deserving of recognition as any
state in the union.
Nebraska has in John J. Pershing a world recog
nized leader.
The Nation waits only for word from Nebraska to
nominate and elect him President.
