~ 6—A THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 10, 1916. / GILBERT PICKS 0UT DEMOCRATIC FLAWS Former Philippine Official Dis- cusses Oampaign With Local Republicans. ADDRESS AT FONTENELLE “There is a fundamental difference between the republicans and the dem- ocrats,” said Newton W. Gilbert of Manila, P. L, former licutenant gov- ernor of the Philippines, w an ad- dress to fifty republicans at the Hotel Fontenelle last night. *The democrat is always talking about where we can buy things the cheayest, and the re- publican seeks where he can sel! things the highest. The democrat never worries about where he can sell American products highe.t, hut about where he can huy something cheap.” Governor Gilbert « in America speaking and doing what he can for the republican national campaign this fall. He has given up his law practice in Manila during the campaign in order that he may enter the fight here. He came to Omaha yesterday from Chicago with ). C. Eversman, assistant to the treasurer of the re- ublican finance committe in Chicago n Omaha the men were the guests of = W. Wattles, who entertained them together with some of the Ne- braska finance committee at dinner at the Fontenelle. About fif:y repub- licans had been hastily notified by telephone that Governor Gilbert would speak at the hotel following the diner. Democracy and Potatoes. Discussing the democratic tariff measures, Governor Gilbert pointed out the peculiar agricultural position of Maine, under democratic tariff policies. “Potatoes, oats aud hay,” he said, “is the whole crop of Maine. Under the democratic. free trade policies, every one of these things come into Maine free of duty from Canada.” = He quoted figures to show that dur- . ing the last three months of 1912 un- der .the republican tariff ‘'aws, only 41,000 bushele of potatoes came into the United States, and that during the first three wonths after potatoes went on the free list under demacratic rule, bushels came in. This was under the Underwood tariff law. He mentioned the vast volume of manufactured goods that poured into the ‘United States immcdialelfv after e Underwoo. bill became 2 law, and e« accompanying idleness to be anmd in_the east nd throughout the United States, “It meant,” he said, “that ntzeone here was no longer making these goods and that some- one abroad was making more of them.” He declared that our imports have during che war been greater than ever before in our history in a like period of time. : Prepare for Future. _ He urged the republicans to get the country mlred to repel the still greater of goods that will seek to come here immediately after the war, when the men ge: out of the trenches and enter the factories in ":&.' Siacked the democeaie P, e policy, and the party’s lack of ntficmtgiomi;hl topdnvelo trade with China when the rtunity was ;fihud,, He declared that the dignity the nation must be maintained in g with foreign powers “if we to remain big America, instead of ing little America.” He said .l.llum peace s worse than G. W. Wattles, in _presiding, re- ‘minded the men that it will be neces- ‘sary to contribute liberally this fall to the republican campaign fund in order that a strong campaign may be made. ‘Mr. Eversman of icago, spoke briefly, telli%nmc good campaign stories, and Victor Rosewater pointed “out that the democrats this l{'hw hold ‘the tr’:ehel and /it is the lot of the _republicans to have to carry those ‘trenches. He_ directed attention to ‘the fact that this is really the first ‘time in twenty-five years that the democrats have staod for re-clection on .heir current term record. Transien} Motorist ~ Finds Long Lost Friend W. A. Keck of Creede, Ta., passed through Omaha enroute to Cedar Falls, la.

This was the opening meeting of the fall season, and Harrison wanted to start out with enthusiasm. “We ought to lay out everything in the future,” he said, “with this end in view. Waterworks development, street development, sewer develop- ment, all public service development, should be worked out and planned with this in view.” Paul Kuhns, chairman of the in- dustrial committee of the Commer- cial club, the commitice seeking to locate new industries and factories in Omaha, urged the real estate men to take an interest in the industrial committee’s work, and to fill out blanks that had been sent them, giv- ing some idea of the amount and kind of trackage property available in the city and other information that is necessary. It was decided that the meeting of the exchange next week shall be de- voted to a full discussion of the new industries situation. Robbins Wants the Exchange to Pay For Auto Smashup Will the Omaha Real Estate ex- change, or will it not, make good the foss to John W. Robbins, one of its members, for getting his auto smashed while officially entertaining a lot of visiting réal estate men? Robbins has presented a bill for some $22.40. The smashup occurred something over a year ago. It was when the real estate men from the east stop- ged off iIn Omaha on their way to an Francisco to attend the conven- tion of the National Association of Real Estate exchanges. Mr. Robbins says Dr. McDermott with his car bumped intv the Rob- bins car while Robbins’ son was showing the visitors around town for the Real Estate exchange. The repairs cost the amount stipulated. Robbins says Dr. McDermott evinces no keenness to settle the bill. At the meeting of the exchange Wednesday, the matter was referred to a committee for full investigation. The exchange wants to know wheth- er Robbins or the doctor was at fault, before it jumps into the busi- ness of writing checks. / MISS JEANETTE RANKIN Night and Day Schools of “Y.
