KfforU to Prevent Sign,

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.

"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
