PERSHING GETS
SUPPORT IN EAST
VOODSJEPORTS
Sponsor of General's Cam
paign Declares Seven
States Are for Him on
Second Choice.
Lincoln, Neb., March 31. (Spe
cialsThat Pershing will be the
second choice of the delegates to the
republican national convention from
Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsyl
vania, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri
and that 35 of the delegates from
Mew York will vote for Pershing as
second choice, or fall in line for him
on the first ballot, if the time ap
pears opportune, was the assertion
of Mark W. Woods, chairman of the
Tershing-for-President organization,
in an address before members of
the Lincoln Women's Pershing
club at a dinner held here.
Urging the women to take an ac
tive parf in the primary contest in
April, Mr. Woods asserted that
"what Lincoln does is going to de
cide who is to be the next president
of the United States," and declared
that if given a large plurality in the
Nebraska primaries, Pershing will be
practically assured of the nomina
tion by the republican convention.
"Nebraska," he said, "will wind
up its political fight in April by giv
ing to General Pershing as many
votes as Wood and Johnson will be
able to count together."
Goes Into Detail.
Mr. Woods went Into detail in ex
plaining the. organization of the
Pershing movement and confided the
fact to the women that Mr. Hitch
cock, manager of the General Wood
taivnaign, visited General Pershing
in France and asked for the oppor
tunity to manage a campaign in the
latte r's behalf for the presidency of
the United States.
"That was in France," said Mr.
Woods, "and Pershings' answer to
Hi'.chcock was that he was too busy
then To think of runnning for presi
dent. The reason for his refusal to
the proposal is apparent. Pershing
has suggested it on various occa
sions. He did not want to be elect
ed by the politicians and the corpor
ations. "And when he was informed of
the --ive instituted by Nebraskans
draft him for the republican nom
ination he had only one thing to
say, and that was that under no
circumstances would he stand for
any money being accepted for a
campaign in his name that would
in anv way obligate him" to the 'don
er. Pershing is free, as is no other
man mentioned for the presidency
today, to follow the dictates of the
electorate of America if he is given
the presidency."
Women Make, Talks.
The address of Mr. Woods was
preceded by short talks by Miss
Edna Perrin, former overseas work
er and organizer of the Women's
Pershing clubs in Nebraska. Mrs. B.
F. Bailey, Mrs. W. E. Morley. Mrs.
A. J. Cornish, wife of Judge Cor
nish of the state supreme court,
Walton G. Roberts, chairman of the
Nebraska Pershing association, and
Norman G. Curtice, former overses
man.
More than SO Lincoln women were
present at the dinner. After the
meeting those who had not already
registered went to the city hall to be
registered as republicans.
Arrangements were made for the
organization of all precincts and
waids so that every woman voter
in the city will be canvassed and
hroucht to the polls to cast her vote
for Pershing on April 20.

BAR "STICKERS"
ON BALLOTS IN
STATEELEGTION
Attorney General's Office
Rules Old Practice Pro
- hibited Under New
Primary Laws.
Lincoln, March 31. (Special.)
The use of "stickers" on' the elec
tion ballot is. prohibited under the
statute, according to an opinion of
the attorney general's office in a
letter addressed to Secretary of
State D. M. Amsberry by Cecil
Laverty; assistant attorney general.
In answer to the inquiry made by
Mr. Amsberry, Mr. Laverty says:
"The section says that the elec
tors may write the name and it
would be strictly construed and in
terpreted as meaning only that the
name written in and not placed there
in any other way."
A great many years ago the "old
est inhabitants" can remember when
stickers were one of the important
things in connection with an elec
tion. The use of these little strips
became such an art that they could
be stuck over the name of a candi
diate and hardly be discovered that
they had been substituted. The
name 'would generally be printed
in the same type and pasted nicely
over the name of an opponent so
that when once received a ballot
from a worker around the polls he
was liable to deposit it without
knowing he was voting for a candi
date of the opposition party.

Valuable Kaolinite '
Deposits Uncovered
On Farm Near Auburn
Auburn, Neb., March 31. (Spe
cial.) A deposit of kaolinite, or
pure plastic clay, 40 acres in ex
tent and 16 feet in depth,, covered
by a thin layer of loam has been
discovered northwest of this city
on the farm of James Bourlier.

tive business men of Auburn visited
the land and ascertained that the
deposit was similar to the famous

company to manufacture the clay

tiling, facing brick and stoneware.

tas of cretaceous shale and lime
stone and the promoters contem
plate mixing these materials with
the kaolinite and making a superior
quality of vitrified paving brick.

alkalies of any kind and is con
sidered highly valuable for orna
mental brick making.
