American Syndicate [\ tys Big Pulp Mills Issue at Ravenna Ravenna, Neb, Oct. 2.—(Special.) —Preparedness for peace by the adoption of a protective tariff that will protect the products of the Ne- braska farm equally with the prod- ucts of the farms and factories of the southland was the theme of an ad- dress delivered in the opera house here Saturday night by John L. Ken- nedy of Omaha, republican candidate for United States senator. Mr. Kennedy referred to the pros- perity of today as the result of the world war now raging in Europe which has taken 30,000,000 men from the force of producers and put them in the class of consumers only, there- by creating an undue demand for the products of the United States. After the war many will go back to work and for a long time the United States will be the dumping ground for the products of the industry of Europe unless American industry is protected by a tariff such as the republican party ‘W s always stood for, he said. He pointed out that the last demo- cratic congress under the control of the southern members had realized the value of a protective tariff and had applied it to their own localities and that the products of the home state of President Wilson are now protected and also the products of the home state of Oscar Underwood, whose name the present tariff measure bears. Mr. Kennedy said that he was un- able to understand how Mr. Hitch- cock, his opponent, could vote for a measure which gave protection to the products of the south, but denied it to the products of his own state, Ne- braska. Mr. Kennedy was introduced by Charles G. Goman, pastor of the Methodist church here. In the audi- ence was C. N. Davenport, cousin of William Jennings Bryan. He is one of the active and influential republi- cans in this vicinity, and while he shares his illustrious cousin's belief on moral questions, he does not agree with him on all economic questions.

THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, SLOAN DISCUSSES RIGHTS OF HOUSE | Method Used to Force Adam- “ son Bill Through Direct Blow to Free Government. |MEMBERS GIVEN ORDERS | i Aurora, Neb., Oct. 2.—(Special.)— In his address before the Aurora Young Men's Christian association Sunday afternoon Congressman Charles H. Sloan declared that the implied demand of the four repre- sentatives of organized labor for the enactment of the so-called eight-hour law and the enactment of that law by congress in compliance with that demand was the hardest blow repre- | sentative government has had in a | century. Mr. Sloan described the va- rious means whereby the power of the house of representatives has been undermined by presidents, senate and outside influences in the past. He insisfed that every blow at the house of representatives is a blow at the liberties of the people. Mr. Sloan described the present house of representatives a ers, referring specifically to Champ Clark, Democratic Claude Kitchin, Republican James R. Mann, Congressmen tz gerald and Gillett. These men, he said, are typical. The speaker, he declared, was four square. None doubted his veracity or his integrity. That he would be sized up as a great speaker by deliberate historians, the congress- man believed. . Kitchin and Mann are opposites, said Mr. Sloan. Kitchin is fiery speech and a hater of details, careles of parliamentary procedure. Mann is the greatest detail man in gh«* house. He is one of the best parliamentari- ans. . Mr. Sloan declared that the liber- ties of the people will be safest when the representatives shall be free from patronage and from threats of any man or any number of men. The four representatives of organized labor sat in the room of the ways and means committee and held a stop watch on congress, he said. Congressmen be- came messengers from these four men MOTHER LOVE AIDS SON IN TRENCHES' | It Brings Relief to Boy Stand- ing His Watch Deep In Mud. \[ Once upon a time, only a few | months after this terrible world war | had begun, Private Bailey, a soldier | in the ranks had stood for days in the | trenches ‘“‘somewhere in France.” | The cold rains soaked him to the | skin; the mud was deep.

These men may | be entitled to more pay. I do not know. We had no means of finding out in the few hours they gave the house before the date set for the strike. The great question was whether or not any few men or any number of men could go into the house of representatives and com- mand the representatives of all the people to vote blindly for any meas- ure. One group stood for the law on the ground that it would avert a great calamity. Another group opposed it because they would not be forced into the passage of that legislation with- out knowledge as to its necessity, jus- tice or constitutionality.” Lindsay Man Hurt In Collision is Dead Lindsay, Neb., Oct. 2.—(Special.)— Ed Bergstrom, who was hurt in the motorcycle collision last Thursday, died from the effects of his injuries OCTOBER 3, 1916. | | Saturday.
