ol Elmer f . Thomas, executive sec

Mr. Thomas has announced that

president of the committee, now
i comes out with a statement accusing
Mr. Thomas of attempting to mis
lead the members of the committee
in a Utter stating his position.
President Graham's statement fol
low Sees Nothing Strange.
Omaha, Oct. 27, 1920.
"Editor Daily Bee:
"There appeared in a recent issue
of one of the Omaha papers a let
ter under, the caption. "Elmer F.
Thomas will vote for Cox."
"There is nothing strange about
this. Mr. Thomas has been a demo
crat all his life, when he was not
a populist.
' ' In the letter he says that lie has
.'changed his mind' since early in
the campaign, when he said he would
not vote for Cox. He did say this
repeatedly with the statement that
the record of Mr. Cox was such
that he did not think it wise to
exalt him to such a position.
i "Mr. Thomas was very positive
in his convictions at that time, that
the election of Mr. Cox would be '
most unfortunate. Mr. Thomas is
: executive secretary of the Commit
tee of 5,000. and it has been the
custom of the committee, prior to ,
, local elections, to recommend can
didates for the various offices, hav-
ing in mind their attitude toward the j
liquor laws and the enforcement of
the same, but no recommendations
have ever been made at to presi-
dcntial candidates.
Others Will Not Follow.
"Many members of the organiza
tion have been waiting for recom
mendations for the coming election,
and while the matter was pending
Mr. Thomas rushed into print stat
ing that he had changed Mi mina,
and that he is for Cox.
"He has a rieht to change his
mind, and a right to vote for Cox,
and a right to express himself, but
he must have known that a letter
from him. although signed by him
personally, would lead many of our
membershio to believe that he was
fxpressing the sentiment of the of
ficers ot the committee.
"This certainly would be a .rea
sonable inference, and the letter was
altogether misleading. '
"The reference to v Cox and the
icague was made. on v his own rc
sponsibility and without the knowl-
edge of the Committee of 5.000. -
i" As president ot tne committee i
wish it understood that no action
has been taken, or will be taken,
with reference either to Cox or the
league.
"Our recommendations will be
confined to the judicial, county and
state tickets.
"Yours truly, '
"W. T. GRAHAM,
"President Committee cf 5,000."

State Superintendent

IN OFFICE
One of the most important officers of the
state, to be elected next Tuesday, is the State
Superintendent of Public Instruction. Every
body should be deeply interested in the election
of the best available candidate.

had 24 years' experience as an educator in the
state; has always been active in matters of state
wide natufe; is constructive, clear-cut in his de
cisions and has a thorough grasp, ot the needs of
our schools. His administration has been emi-
" nently sane and practical and has enlisted the co
operation of the teachers and school officers.
'V . ' '
For. these reasons, we 'unqualifiedly recom
, mend Mr. Matzen and ask his endorsement at the
hands of the voters of Nebraska.

Nebraska Farmers
May Burn Corn Due to
High Price of Coal
Norfolk, Neb., Oct. 27. (Special
Telegram.) Hundreds of thousands
of bushels of corn may be burned as
fuel by farmers in northern Nebras
ka this winter. High-priced coal
and a bounteous but low-priced crop
of corn is the reason. . New corn,
unshelled, now brings of a cent
a pound or $15 a ton. . The cheapest
soft coal is $15 and it has to be
hauled. A wagon box 30 inches high
is required to hold a ton of unshelled
corn and that amount makes a hotter
fire and will last longer than a ton
of coat. ,
Beatrice Business Men
Offer Site for New Hotel
Beatrice, Neb., Oct. 27. (Spe
cial.) A number of business men of
East Court street will raise $7,500 to

hotel and will present the site to
committee in charge if it agrees to
j uild the new hotel at that location.
Big Sixth for Harding,
Congressman Kinkaid Says
O'Neill. Neb.. Oct. 27. (Special.)
An overwhelming sentiment for
Harding and the republican ticket
in northern and western Nebraska,
is the way Congressman Moses P.
Kinkaid, of the Sixth congressional
district expresses it. He returned to
O'Neill from a trip which included
20 counties of the district.
"I find the sentiment for Hard
ing very strong," says Judge Kin
kaid. "Another noticeable feature of
the campaign is that the people are
not excited. Everyone's mind seems
to be made up and one hears very
little discussion of politics."
