Grand Island. Neb.. Sept. 17.- (Special Telegram) Grand Island turned out a thousand strong to hear Colonel Theodore Roosevelt tonight. The welcome here was filled with the same warmth and enthusiasm that marked his speeches earlier in the day in Alliance and in Ravenna, where crowd of 600 took him by tlirnrn mil ri.-VLr him trf th train ';' f - to talk against the ieague of nations, irl j Governor McKelvie, who spoke HI " . u.t .u- r ! . juas uciuic inc iuu?cvcu iraui ar rive, had declared that if the present sentiment continues, Nebraska will tjife the republicans 75,000 majority. Thlnki Lot of Nebraska. "Go to it Nebraska," Colonel Roosevelt shouted as he finished his speech. "I and my family think lot of Nebraska and I am confident that you will bury the proposal to give up American sovereignty to a league of nations so deVp that it will never again be brought up." Raymond Robins also, spoke, and will fill four speaking engagements with Governor McKelvie tomorrow. These will be at Central City at 1 in the morning, at Columbus at 2, Schuyler at 4, and Fremont at 8. Nebraska audiences watched with delight the resemblance in appear ance ana mannerisms ot young Koosevelt to his father. Mis illus trations, in which he quoted the elder colonel were particularly effective. He assailed Governor. Cox for making an appeal to classes, and re ferred to him as a hypocrite, nom inated by bosses while claiming the republicans are dominated by a small group. Assails Cox. "Mr. Cox attacks Mr. Harding's statement that looks forward to party government," he said. "Mr. Cox simperingly demands for the democratic party the claim to an ad ministration conducted on non7 partisan lines. Does Mr, Cox pre tend to forget that when this coun try's affairs were at their grav.est 'the head if the democratic party 'ap pealed to the country to return a democratic congress? Can Mr. Cox call this nonpartisan politics? It is partisan politics of the lowest and basest form, and I happen to think of the way the country answered. "There have been individuals who have told me that they and some others would deliver the labor vote. They lie. There is no man alive who can deliver the labor vote in this country. The working man is just as good an American as any one else and he will vote for the interests of the country, his coun try, as he, makes up his mind with out paying the least attention to any ether consideration.- . "This holds equally good with the soldiers. There is no soldier who will vote as such. The soldier of this war before he became a soldier was a. citizen and now he is again a citizen. As a citizen he is ac tuated by the same motives by which .-tvery , other citizen is actuated and will act according to (his opinions ?.nd nothing else.' "Need Common Sense."' "We must meet the future deter mined that, we are going forward, always forward, to better things and that we will not let unreasoning fear force1 us into senseless reaction. Equally, however, ' we must not let our country be governed by dis content ' What we want in this .country is common sense, common decency and common honesty and ' thise the republican party will fur nish. ' "The party has furnished this in the' plist and can furnish it in the iuture. ; , "During the past eight years the democratic administration seems to have chosen its cabinet members and its high officials with one prin cipal requisite in mind, namely, that they should murmur 'yes' to any plan advocated by the executive.

By PAUL GREER. Broken- Bow, Neb., Sept 18. CSpecial Telegram.) A sun-burned young man in a khaki shirt and with a snag in the back of his old blue coat is crossing the state today from Alliance to Grand Island. He is Col. Theodore Roosevelt, jr., who is proving to be one of the greatest assets of the republican party in the present campaign. He will tell you that he was 33 on the day of the Maine election when Maine was 65.000. Ugly as a bronze statue, yet there is a mixture of good humor and fire in his face that has made him fast friends 'from Maine to Utah on his speaking tour of more than a month.

Our can didate, Mr. Harding, will gather around him men choseu on account of "their ability and courage, men who will not be afraid to stand up in open court and express their opin ions." ' He urged that republicans be put iri office from top to bottom (turn ing to Congressman Anclrews, who sat beside him). His main attack was on the league. "The great issue, of the campaign is the, Wilson league of nations." he declared. "Like all of you I do not wish to see future wars. I know what war is, ancrl have three little boys. There are the seeds of more future wars to that document than there are in any thing of its kind in history. rounded on injustices, tn' many in stances, -and containing article 10, the league, is a death trap. This league is no more and no. less than a supecouncil to sit at Geneva and if possible, perpetuate by' force exj- lstmg conditions. .. "Welcome Square Deal" "We pride ourselves that we de sire, to deal justly with all nations. We say that we owe every nation a square deal. Yet in this league and the accompanying treaty of Ver- ailles we are asked to subscribe to injustices of the rankest sort. By the treatyjoundaries were estab lished in PSris by a small group. partly on political expedience. The people of this government believe that government should be by con sent of the governed. Do they realize that in no instance on the partition of countries were the wishes of inhabitants consulted. "Through article 10, if. we join, we promise to cbey the ' mandates that may be put on us by the coun cil. "Through this article, we cove nant, if ordered, to send our men to fight in European brawls. We plight ourselves to aid Japan to keep in ' subjugation Shantung. We plight ourselves to aid Gjpat Britain, should she demand it In the Irish troubles. Do you wish to have your sons, fighting alongside of the Jap anese to hold in subjugation for them 30,000,000 Chinese? Do you wish your sons to be sent oh a puni tive expedition to Ireland? I can answer, we do not and I do not, and we will not allow them to be sent. We "are willing that they should go to defend this country in a great cause, but we will be the judges qf what the great cause is, not any secret conclave in Geneva. t "We republicans propose to throw this thoroughly Unamerican docu ment, which is based neither on idealism nor interest. We do not propose to have a foreign group dictate to us when or on whom we are to declare war. We do not pro pose to enter into the European situation except in the interest of a great cause, and we do propose, wheh we enter, to be the sole judges of that cause ourselves.' Edward Williams, was chairman of the meeting here, which was held in the opera nouse. Governor Mc Kelvie was introduced by H. J. Mc Laughlin, his opponent in the repub lican primaries. A Norwegian expedition is on its way to prepare for development oi the coal deposits of the Cape Boh man Islands, near Spitzbergen, which are said to contain 60,000,000 tons at a depth of two meters. men in overalls, buddies in the world war with him. A the train speeds east he is making train ac quaintances of the men and women who are his fellow passengers.. He has no private car aid if he had, he would not stay in it, for, like his lather, he is interested in human kind and is eager to feel the pulse-beats of the west. V , Confident of G. O. P. Victory Out' of his talk with the people, Colonel Roosevelt today made this prophecy, when asked concerning the result of the presidential elec tion: I "I am confident that the folks in America have made up their minds that the democratic party does not represent in any way their ideas nor ideafs, and that this autumn will see a phenomenal sweep for the repub licans. I base this on what I have heard from men of all sorts, from a president of a bank to a coal heaver." ' ' He is throwing himself heart and soul into the defeat of what he calls uii-Americanism, as personified by the Wilsonian league of nations. To liir.i it is not only a problem affect ing the present, but oni-wrought with the greatest consequences to the future generations. . "This year, above all others, we need cartful forethought," he ex plains. "The problems that are be fore us should be met in terms of the future. In other' words, all , people with children should think with ref erence to their children. 1 1 have four children, and I am mosjt anxious to see this country a far better country when they are grown up and have children of their own.

Chlraro Tribune -Omah lie Leued Win. San Francisco, Sept. 18. Gov ernor' Cox Friday declared for Asi atic exclusion and pledged himself, if- elected, to co-operate with the state in perfecting a plan for shut ting out oriental settlers. "California." he said, "should not ask, and, 1 am sure, does not ask for any procedure in the oriental prob lem which cannot be accommodated to the general policy of the govern ment in harmoniously working out such agreements as must be made with friendly nations. "At the same time, if California does not desire her lands to come into the possession of orientals, tfhe may expect, in consonance with the eslablished'democratic orinciple, the genuine co-operation of the national government in the working out of plan whereby she excludes the oriental settler. There is nothing evasive abo t this. It constitutes a flat offer of co-operation in any decent settle ment of this question." x 1 he democratic candidate declared that the republicans promised noth ing but a "chameleon policy" with regard to the Japanese problem. Governor Cox invaded the strong hold of Hiram Johnson early today, and brought the "league of nations issue with him.
