    THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, li)20.
Both Nebraska
Chairmen Lay
Claim to State
Final Statements Issued by
C. A. McCIoud, Republican
Leader, and J. S. Mo
Carty, Democrat
Lincoln, Nov. 1. Chairmen of the
republican and democratic state cam
paign committees today issued final
appeals to the voters of the state.
The party leaders all claim victory
for their respective candidates. The
11th hour statements follows:
C. A. McCIoud, chairman of the
reniinnran rnt rnmmitt in hi
statement, says:
"The democratic party in Ne
braska has given up the fight for
the presidency; the only remaining
semblance of a fight is that for the
governorship. The republican state
central oommittee firmly believes
thai the entire republican state ticket
will be elected by a large majority.
Its election by a plurality is al
ready conceded. The campaign for
the governorship early resolved it
self into one of promise after
promise made by the two opponents
of Governor McKelvie in answer to
which the republican party points
to its record of things actually done.
"The republican state ticket de
serves the support of all Nebraska
voters. All except one of the re
publican candidates are candidates
for re-election. They are seeking
endorsement of their business ad
ministration of the state's affairs.
They stand for the economic ex
penditure of the state's money.
Voters Not Deceived.
"The republican party does not be
lieve that the voters have been de
ceived by the charges of ex
travagance that have been circulated
by the opponents of the present ad
ministration. State taxes have in
creased by only a very small amount
and even that small increase has
been due almost entirely to building
of good roads and better state in
stitutions, and to increased ap
propriations for the university and
for the care of the state's depen
dants. Expenditures for these ac
tivities meet with the approval oi
the people, we know.
"We believe that the new women
voters will cast an almost unanimous
ballot for the republican state ticket,
which stands for rigid law enforce
ment, while the democrats have
definitely promised to do away with
the state's law enforcement division
if they are elected.
"Governor McKelvie has made no
appeal to class or racial prejudices,
but has stood four-square on a plat
form calling for continuance of a
businesslike administration of the
state'r affairs, and for completion of
the constructive program that had
its inception under the present ad
ministration." Demos' Are Confident
J. S. McCarty, vice crtairman of
the democratic state committee, in
his statement says:
"It was the Des Moines speech of
Senator Harding that changed Ne
braska from an Almost certain re
publican victory to one of doubt at
this writing. '
"Nebraska people as a whole are
for the league covenant. There is a
certain anti-war element, however,
more pronounced in Nebraska, per
haps, than in some 'other- western
states, on which the republican or
ganizations have worked every prop
aganda known to skilled politicians
in order to secure their vote.
"The democrats have consistently
been for the league, while up until
Harding spilled the beans at Des
Moines the republicans were sup
posed to be for the covenant, but
with reservations. When the news
twept across the country that the
republican- candidate had finally
taken his stand squarely against this
vital issue it aroused the women in
every section of the state, as well
as the men, who were not hidebound
partisans, and these headquarter'
were deluged with thousands of re
quests tor literature and speakers in
the league of nations.
Swept Across State.
"The change from republican to
c'tmocratic sentiment not only swept
acros Nebraska like a tidal wave,
but has practically spread to ivery
state in the union, and where hire
tofore states have been classed in the
Harding colamn with a fair margin,
the, political prognosticators are now
cataloguing them as doubtful.
"If is the opinion of the demo
cratic state committee that the
women will decide the national elec
tion in Nebraska and it will be de
cided in favor of Cox and the league
of nations.
"As to Governor Morehead's elec-
hat he will be elected by an over
whelming vote.

Proclamation of
Armistice Day
State Executive Asks Citizens
To Join in Paying Tribute
.To Soldier Heroes in
World War.
Lincoln, Nov. 1. (Special.) Call
ing attention to the fact that this
country will never forget the heroic
sacrifices of its soldiers in the recent
war, Governor McKelvie has issued
a proclamation for the observance of
Armistice day, NovemDer 11. The
proclamation reads:
"On November 11, 1918, the cur-
i tain was drawn on the most terrible
holocaust the world had ever known.
For four long years the military
forces of the world had contended
about the insolent invasions of auto
cracy against the rights of peoples
and of nations, to determine their
own destinies.
' "The deciding roll in that world
drama was played by America. Fouc
million of her sns placed the inter
ests of. the "nation above those of
self and fell patriotically to the col
ors. Of. these, over 100,000 made
the supreme sacrifice, and the quiet
graves that markthcV last resting
place urge , us on to greater devo
tion to our country.
"America cannot and will not for
get the great service that was ren
dered by these men in the hour of
its direst need. There is only a
little that we can do at best to prove
our undying devotion to them. So
let us avail ourselves of every op
portunity to again 'and again give
evidences of our everlasting appre
ciation for the services they ren
dered. "Therefore, 1 Samuel R. McKel
vie, governor of the state of Ne
braska, do declare . November 11,
1920, Armistice day, to be obseryed
as a holiday throughout .this com
monwealth, and the occasion for
this observance should be marlcpH
tion," to be discussed by Secretary
McGeevy, Wichita, Kan. A. P. San

that they had to give up the trip
and return to Lincoln.
"We were just a little tired " said
fiss Nye, head stenographer in the

given up, and will try it again when
the weather gets more settled."

and hominy." But it is, likewise, the cen
ter of fair women, crave men and charm
ing children. Its percentage of illiteracy
is the lowest of all the states. Its health
rate and its death rate will compare fa
vorably with any section of the country.
NEBRASKA'S public spirit, strong
with he daring pioneer, has un
folded with the years and is faithfully
cultivated by the Nebraskans of today.
Its prairies, rich in soil, are dotted with
improved farm homes. Its citieB and
townsiire growing. Omaha, the metropo
lis, is a Wonder City, in the business it
does, in the generosity of its people and
in its general progress.
