19 T1IK UKK: OMAHA. SATURDAY. MAY 6. It). Fusion Bugaboo Torments Third Party Leaders Doufclsi Committfe RctifHs KfforU to Prevent Sign, inp of Norton Petition. " Hie DongU county cnHf! com miitff of the progrrive party it re newing itt effort to prevent the signing of petition to file the name Of J. N. Norton a prorenv gub rrnalnrial candidate. Mr. Norton already has lilre at drmiHratic ran didate and an element of the progrrt iv party will accept him at (utioa candidate. The firit questionnaires mailed out hy C. A. McDonald. Douglas eounty chairman of the new party, brought more than 2W repliea front menibrrt of the party who will not sign Norton prtiiiont. There were were 548 charter memheri of the new part at the Grand lland eon vention, December 8. Under the aute Uwi affecting the organization of new political pari if , it is nece ary for candidate for Mate office to have petition signed by at least JO per cent of the original member of the new party. In thi instance the Norton nrtition niut contain not lea, than 272 iignaturra of person who rigned the roll at Grand Island. Party Facing Crisis. The text of the new circular ad dressed by the I)ougla county cen tral committee of the progressive tariv follows: "The progressive party is-going through a crisis. The Grand Island convention declared for a middle-of-the-road policy. A large proportion of its member are .opposed to the, recent deal by which Wray was per suaded to go bark on his previous announcement that he would run for governor and not for senator, and to withdraw as a candidate for gover nor to make way for Norton, a dem ocratic candidate, to file on our primary ticket. "Under the resolution adopted unanimously at Grand Island, the signers of the agreement to form the party are under obligations not to aign petitions for anv person who i not a bona fide member of the party. Tf the partv is to avoid a factional fight on the issue of fusion, the question of whether Norton or any one else, not a member of the partv. can secure enough signatures (272) to entitle them to place his name on the primary ballot, must beaettled without further delay. Battle to the Finish." " "If you are, a signer of the Grand Island agreement, it is your dtitv to stand up and be counted. If 300 oi the 543 will steadfastly refuse to aign, then the battle against fusion is won. If 272 of the party founders will sign Norton petitions, then the battle is on for the primaries. And it will be a battle to the finish. Each side will be irreconcilable because of the principle involved, and the losers will doubtless leave the party. . "It is important, then, if you are opposed to fusion on state offices to send in your vote now. It will be notice to Norton et al., that pro gressive nominations are only for progressives." Body Company Head Denies V He Promised 'Dividends Robert C. O'Bryan, charged with conspiracy to commit a felony .through the sale of stock in the Great Western Commercial Body company, of which he was president, took the stand in his own behalf yes terday iiKPistrict Judge Goss' court.' O'Bryan denied he had promised dividends on stock inasmuch as sucH a promise would have to be made by the company's board of di rectors. He declared that business was good in , 1920, and that orders totaling $176,000 were received. Due to financial stringency, however, the Company was unable to fill them and the orders were canceled, he asserted. Common Sense By J. J. MUNDY. " Is Dissatisfaction Spoiling You? You are never satisfied with the things which happen to you. , It may be the weather, too hot or too cold; it may be your friends, too . much concerned in your affairs or too little interested; it may be your daily work, too much and too hard, or you cannot get enough to make t . i j. a living, out always you are dis satisfied. Do your realize the impression you make ''on other persons with whom you come ia contact? - It does not take very long before even the merest acquaintance oegins to notice your attitude of grouch toward the world in general. . r It affects von. step. - It certainly affects your features, which begin to look down at the ' mouth in very truth. You shrill out your tones in a dis agreeable way m conversation. . Altogether your friends begin to avoid you. ' - You cannot be served satisfactorily . tven at a restaurant because' the waiter feels your frown and instinc .(tively knows you are not pleased. It is a foolish person who so illy prepares the way tor mends and ma. teriat success. ' - . (Copyright. 1K8.) "We're Real Pals" Declares Mrs. "Fatty" Arbuckle Here Wife of Famous Comedian, Drawn to Him by Trouble After Long Estrangement, Visiting In Omaha Roscoe May Come Too Trial Cost Screen Favorite His Fortune. "Fatty" ArhueMe is "getting" fat a gam af I tt pound since the trial and will vi.it Omaha oon, Mint Durfee Arbuckle, wife of "rat," said Thurdy night at the home of Dr. and Mr. Charles G. Darnel, 101 South Thirty-second svenue, hi continued on her way to New York from the western coat at 6 laM night. "I'm Mr. Arbuckle," she said with a smile and sparkling eye to The Bee reporter, when he called her Mi" Durfee. "We are not separated and I am not going to live stone any more. That's why I am hurrying to New York. I want to get the hou.e ready to receive the "big family.' You ee, Mr. Arbuckle ha gained 18 pound in weight since he wa clear ed by the jury of blame for the death of Virginia Kappe. 1 ' Big Car Sold. "He sold his big automobile which the newspaper reporters wrote so much about and be expects to ell the California home shortly. -You te, the trial cost him his fortune. 1 plan to go bac kon sthe stage, and everything we have will be 'fifty- fifty. Were real pals and I know we are going to continue to be that way." The Arbuiklcs.had been separated for five year, prior to his arrest on a manslaughter charge. "But we were never divorced, she said. "We were always friends. But now we are pals, and close pals, too." - "When I heard of his trbuble. I put everything I owned in New York in storage and with my mother and sister, hurried to his aid. Now I in going to fix up the house again. and believe me 1 won't be alone any more. I want him with me, or. 1 am going to be with him." Yearns for Camera. "Mrs. Arbuckle said "Fatty" is yearning to get before the camera again and with his screen antics again bring smiles and entertain the movie fans especially the children. "He still loves the American peo ple and has faith in them" she said. I can t understand why his pic tures are being kept back for he was given a clean bill by a representa tive American jury and cleared of all blame for the unfortunate af fair." Mrs. Arbuckle said that her once- famous comedian husband will cob- ably join her in New York within the next 10 or II days and when he travels east he will stop off here for a visit with Dr. and Mrs. Barnes. Dr. Barnes was the chief witness for Arbuckle during his. third trial and. according to Mrs. Arbuckle, his testimony 'did a great deal toward clearing "Fatty." Dr. Barnes testified that he treat ed Virginia Rappe in Chicago some years ago. Gets Many Testimonials. "Mr. Arbuckle receives hundreds of letters every day from all parts of the country, telling him that the people still believe in him and want him again to entertain them with his antics, said Mrs. Arbuckle. "When I left him, his room was fill ed with letters. He plans to answer all of-them and will tell them that he also yearns to meet them from the screen again." "He has received several offers to go into vaudeville, and discussed plans in regard to a play, but he loves the movies, so I don't know just what he will do. She said -that she and "Fattv" knew Virginia Rappe very well, both having met her at a social gather ing at the same time... "We knew Henry Lerhinan. who was supposed to be the fiance of Virginia," she add ed. "You notice he was married just the-other day. I don't. care to dis cuss him." ' Sister Is With Her. Mrs. Arbuckle is accompanied by her sister, Marie Durfee., who sat with her during the three trials. "Fatty is happy again," said Miss Durfee. "He does antics around the house, just ' like before the camera. Just before we left he chased me around the house with . a cane, try ing to trip me." . "I'm hoping that Mr. ' Arbuckle comes to Omaha," said Dr. Barnes. "I had never met him until I went to Hustlers to Round Up j King Ak's Stray Subjects With more than 2,000 loyal mem ber of Ak-Sar-Ben rounded tip for 022, tht buttling committee met in conference yesterday In the Surge Nah tes room to dieu further way and means of corralling at least 4,0i)0 itrsy subject of hi roval highness.
