2 PREFER KENNEDY T0 SEEING RACES Crowds at Beatrice Fair Do Not Like Interruption of Demo- crat Track Judge. G. 0. P. SENTIMENT LEADS Beatrice, Neb., Sept. 28.—(Special.) —Today was republican day at the Gage county fair and a galaxy of can- didates were here taking part in the ispeech making and meeting the vot- ‘ers. John L. Kennedy of Omaha, re- publican candidate for United States senator, was the principal speaker of the day, and his speech bristled with telling epigram and burned with re. ‘publican fervor. ., In the midst of his speech, which dealt principally with the Underwood tariff of the democratic adminstra- tion and its sectional application so as to protect the products of the :southern farms, but not the products of Nebraska, he was interrupted by sC. P. Hall, prominent- local demo- scrat, who as judge of the races awished to have the races proceed on time. Mr. Kennedy preferred to stop at this time and his crowd cheere’d and called, “Go on! Go on! We don't care about the horse races.” ¢ Mr, Kennedy's speech dealt with republican issues and his mention of the name of Charles E. Hughes brought out repeated applause. Mr. "~ Kennedy was introduced by Peter Ja of this city. Another demo- cratic interruption brought forth snappy retort from Mr. Kennedy which was much enjoyed by the au- dience. He left here this afternoon for North Platte, where he will ad- dress an. afternoon meeting tomor- Adam.

Hollweg Declares Italy Forced to Go To War by British Berlin, Sept. 28—(By Wireless to Sayville.)—The Reichstag convened today and the imperial chancellor, Dr, von Bethmann-Hollweg, delivered his eagerly-awaited speech, He began by ou!limnf the events which led up to the Italian and Roumanian decla- rations of war. He recalled that the German ambassador “had left Rome after Italy's = declaration of war against A ungary and « rmany anmotinced that the Italians would find German troops fighting with their Austrian comrades on the Italian fronticr.

BOOM IS ONLY TEMPORARY Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 28.—Ad- vocacy of universal military_training in this country and greater participa- tion in national, state and municipal politics were urged here today by speakers before the American Bank- ers’ association, Military service for all young men was declared necessary by James J. Lynch of San Francisco, president of the association, and Frank A. Van- derlip of Illinois. “Ills in politics through which demagogues and ward heelers’ have gotten into city coun- cils, state legislatures and even con- gress, are due to the negligence of bankers and other business men, the convention was told by Mayor George H, Edwards of Kansas Cit; Lynch stated preparedne: was necessary because “we are to- day the most tempting prize under the blue canopy of heaven.” Mr. Vanderlip deolared it to be “the surest assurance of peace.” Vanderlip’'s Address. “If ever a people should pause, if ever they should look abroad and profit by the experience of others, should "comprehend their national dangers, in the light of the terrible realitier that are being enacted be- fore.their eyes in other nations, it is now and we are the people.” p In those words Frank A. Vanderlip of New York warned his hearers they should not take too easily the present great wealth of this country that “seems dangerously likely to submerge us in our own prosperity.” \Rather, he said, with an opportunity such as no country ever had to lay the sure ‘foundations of a great fu. ture, we must not be “so intent upon dividing the proceeds of present rosperity that we fail to safeguard its permanence.” Mr. Vanderlip, after speaking of the wat's cost in Europe and outlin- ing the financial status of this coun- try, declared: “In a word, I believe the greatest need of the day—and a need so fundamental as to make other matters inconsequential in com- i is the need of universal dustrial and economic pre- Military Training Necessity. He asked for training in military service for all men, greater savings by all classes and greater efficiency in industrial pursuits. "I once thought you could count universal military service as an eco- nomic waste,” he said. “I feel con- fident, in the light of events of the ast two years, that it is not only a military necessity of superlative im- portance, but that our national life would draw a unity which could be obtained in no other way.” Mr. Vanderlip scarcely touched up- on the banking business except to say that he believed the federal re- serve act embodies some sound fun- damental princi | which, howeyer#: and hampered in its inception b political ‘congiderations and p.dmlnin’: trative attitude. Committee on Laws Reports. The report of the committee on federal legislation, read by Charles A.

It appears that the Jacksonian club | Republican Nominee Disousses| German Soldiers Swarm Over members reckoned without their host when they elected 1. J.

The Jacks maintain that the county or- ganization, maintained and operated by the Jims, does not represent” the democracy of this county. The whole situation was aired before the creden- tials committee of the state demo- crati: convention at Hasings in July. The Jims scored a victory on that oc- casion.

This hall has a capacity of 500. Members of the county committee, when ques- tioned, admitted to two reasons— first, that they were afraid the vice president of " these United States might not fill the Auditorium, and, second, that the big hall is engaged for that date by the democratic sen- ator's showmen, David Hinshaw, represepting the al Hughes alliance, is calling on local republican leaders.

Fairbanks, republi- can candidate for vice president, charged in an address here this after- noon. The speaker also touched upon the tariff, the Mexico situation and economic conditions in this coun- try at the termination of the Euro- pean war, “The republican party,” said Mr. Fairbanks, “has kept faith with the American _people since the days of Abraham Lincoln, when he consecrat- ed his mighty services to the cause of human liberty. The republican party has pledged its faith over and over again and not to this hour has its pledge gone to public protest. “One of the most earnest ‘Eledges of democracy was to reduce the high cost of living. This is one of the questions that always is of paramount importance among people who earn their bread in the sweat of their faces. This pledge was not kept. Did the democratic party make this pledge knowing it could not, or would not keep it? If so they have forfeited public confidence. No party has any claim to fiublic support which reck- | lessly makes pledges which it can- | tot or will not keep.” ‘Denver Bakers To Boost Price of Bread_59 Per Cent Denver, Colo., Sept. 28.—The price of bread and pastry in Denver will be increased approximately 50 per cent after Monday, according to the Master Bakers' association, whose session begun last night ended early today. ' The question of a still greater increase was the subject debate. Tive-cent loaves of bread are to be increased to 75 cents, or 8 cents for single loaves.

RUNS 0UT OF JUICE Stranded Tank in Vain En- deavor to Penetrate It. |INFANTRY TO THE RESCUE | British Front in France, Sept. 27.— | (Midnight, Via London, Sept. 28.)— { In the lull which has occurred after the great two days’ battle, in which | five villages and 5,000 prisoners were taken by the allies, the correspond- ‘ent of the Associated Press has had an opportunity to glean many stories from the participants in the struggle. | These stories were not only of cour- | age and heroism, but of a humor and | paradox possible only in such com- plicated and remorseless warfare. The most wondertul of all the tales | told was perhaps that of one of the | tanks, or new armored motor cars, which started for Berlin on its own | account. This monstrous land ship, ambling and rumbling along, did not wait on the infantry after the taking | of Guedecourt, but plodded over shell holes and across lots looking for its prey like some prehistoric lizard. In,course of time it found a German trench, but as it engaged the occupants with its machine guns it ran out of gasoline. Germans Swarm Over Tank. When the Germans found this strange creature, with its steel hide impenetrable to bullets, stalled, cu- riosity and a desire for revenge was a fillip to their courage. They went after it with the avidity of prehistoric men stalking a wound-~ ed mammoth, whose bulk was fast in one of the alleys of the cave dwell- ers. No such game was ever seen on this western front, marked as it has been by all kinds of bizarre fighting. 3 Atcording to the accounts given by the British officers with veracious so- lemnity, while the tank’s machine gun blazed right and left, some of the Germans managed to creep along the trenches under the fore legs and hind legs of the crouching beast. Then they swarmed over it, looking for an opening through which to strike at its vitals. They fired their rifles into joints and bombed it all over, but to no more avail than burglars trying to reach the inside of a battle- ship turret with a jimmy. All the while the tank's machine guns kept busy at the human targets in reach, while its crew, chosen -dare-devils, concluded to stick until they starved or the Germans found the proper can opener to get them out. Infantry to Rescue. Finally the British infantry in the gasoline. The gasoline arrived safe- ly and the beast, having taken a swal- low, ambled back into reserve amidst wild cheering.

When that gun began rat- tling Mr. Thomas Atkins took cover and considered ways and means of silencing it.
