Money for G. 0. P. Fight to
Be Raised by Small Contri-

For "Boodle" Cry.

Chicago Tribune-Oman liee Leaned Wire.
Washington, June 26. Senator
Harding, - republican presidential
nominee, put the ban today on big
campaign contributions. Funds for
the campaign are to be raised by
anneals for small sums of money
from the rank and file of the party
all over the country and $1,000 will
bp the limit per person. No op
posing party is going ,to be given
i chance to raise the quadrennial
"boodjc" cry. x
Announcement to tiiis effect was
made today by Col. William Boyce
Thompson, Chairman of the ways
'and means committee of the re
publican party organization, after a
conference with Senator Harding.
"Senator Harding has said to me,
as head of the national ways and
means committee, that he wants the
financial side of the campaign cast
in harmony with the policy of his
preconvention campaign," said Col.
Thompson.
"The senator spent- the least of
any of the candidates in the pre
c invention period and takes espe
cial pride in having it known that
the major portion of his limited
' fund came through small contribu
tions from neighbors and friends
in his home town. He feels, and
we all agree with him, that the nec
essary funds for the national cam-j
paign snoura De mane up orj smau
contributions.
"Our policy is to adhere strictly
to the proposal of receiving con
tributions in limited amounts. io
tne can escape the realization of
certain necessary expenditures in
carrying on a gnat nationwide cam
jifr.ign. The republican party means
to carry oh an intensive campaign
in order to back the government
under the constitution, but it is not
going to be a campaign that will
commit the party to an obligation
to flic moneyed interests or any
other single or selfish element in
American life."

CRIME WAVE IN
OMAHA ABATING,
EBERSTEIN SAYS
Robberies and Holdups In Past
Six Months More Than En
tire Years of 1917-18,
However.-
Loss by robberies and holdups in
Omaha during the past si months
has decreased considerably over a
like period of" last ear, but is a
marked increase over the total loss
of stolen goods in the city during
the entire years of 1917-18, accord
ing to police reports.
Unsettled postwar conditions, ef
fect of the socalled bolshevik atmos
phere over the country, and the
choice of an "easier way to live"
were due chiefly to crime cmd'tions
that have been rampant in large
losses up to date .according to Chief
of Police Eberstcin.
Records at Central police station
show that losses of stolen ,n;oods in
the city last year exceeded the total
of the six years previous.
Bank Robbery Boosts Loss.
Last year's losses were greatly
augmented by the robbery of. Hay
den's store and the ho'dup of the
Farmers and Merchants' b'.nk at
Benson, the latter robbery netting
the highwaymen more loot than all
Omaha lost in burglares the two
years previous, records show.
Recovery of stolen goods by the
police during the past six months
lias been slightly over 14 percent.
Escape" of thieves with their loot to
other cities is assigned the reason
of the smaller percentage o recov
ery. Of $155,625.14 worth of goods
stolen to date this year, as shown
on police records, recoveries have
amounted to $24,643.50. '
Crime Slows Up.
Losses by thefts and burglaries
during the whole of last vfaT
'amounted to $437,002.11. Recov
eries totaled $59,485.02.
During the previous gears, an
nual losses averaged $54,361.26. Re
coveries by police averaged $42,
479.84. Comparison brings out the ,t oint
that crime by larceny and robbery
took a rapid rise last year but has
been somewhat mitigated during the
past six months, y
More Efficient Polic:.
Referring to the decline in crime
during the past months over last
year. Chief of Police Eberstein says:
"The city is better policed, and
the police department is in a more
efficient working order, more thor
oughly organized, but 'lot yet per
fect. Its record since the riot has
been manifest of strict attention of
every man to his duty.
"Of course, the country at large
is still rampant in crime, though not
as bad as last year. Postwar con
ditions have been almost ch;.otic.
due to the high cost of 'iviug and of
persons choging the 'easier way to
live." ,
In checking over the losses and
recoveries of stolen goods, every
petty item is accounted for. A bar
rel of alcohol stolen from the
Northwestern freight depot last
May was estimated at $1,200 in
trinsically, though on open market
it would command a much higher
price.

George M. Edwards, ent to the
penitentiary from Custer county for
assault upon his 13-year-old daugh
ter and given a two to 15-years
sentence,, was paroled from the
penitentiary today.
Edwards pleaded guilty to the
tl-.r.rge which was brought by his
wife, claiming that he was innocent
and that the arrest was caused by
his wife with whom he had quar
reled, but that he would rather serve
time in the pen than to have his
daughter and family brought into
the disgrace which would come
from the trial. The county attor
ney and sheriff recommended his
Hnuole, but the judge, whi'e saying
tnat it tne otticials tavored it he
would raise no objections, would
not join in the recommendation.
Edwards was the man who noted
the escape of the convicts Stone
and Floth recently and notified the
warden. As a reward for his act
he is given his freedom. He has
been what i has been known as an
"honor" prisoner for some time, be
ing place doutside for the purpose
of giving the parden any informa
tion regarding irregular conduct on
the part of other trusty prisoners.
His parole Vas given with the un
derstanding that he would not go
back to his family.
