Old Bal?y Carriages Are Put to Commercial Use A new Nindustry, not officially recorded by the Commercial club, and which thrives in spite of that august organization, has sprung up in,Omaha and is making several persons tonsid- erable profit on a small investment. This industry is the manufacture and sale of the succulent “hot tamale,” sold on the streets by scores 6fitin- erant vendors, 3 / One man bought up a dozen old baby carriages, and removing the bodies, built stout boxes on instead. He then installed big lard cans, which he had converted into fireless cook- ers, and hired, a peddler for each wagon. With his wife he makes the tamales in a little room in the Bowery district, and each night checks the men in and out.

Woman’s Journal Tells 0f Work of Mrs. Sumney The Woman’s Journal, published in Boston, gives prominent position to a notice of the work of Mrs. H. C.

Va.,, on October 3 and 4, went on record for equal suf- frage after an able address by Mrs. H. C. Sumney of Omaha, Neb. “‘Give the women the vote and you \will never regrét it; your only regret will be that you deprived: them of that privilege for.so many years/ said Mrs, Sumney. ~She told of the fight for suffrage in Nebraska and said she believed much good would result 1f the women of West Virginia were enfranchised on November 7.” Store Girls Enjoy a Dinner and‘Theater Party Dull care took hasty flight Wednes- day night when the women book- keepers of the Central Furnjture store went a-merrying.

LOFTY PROMISE, PAILURE Logisville, Ky., Oct. 19.—Asserting that -for three years there had been “fio protection of our citizens abroad,” Theodore Roosevelt in an address last night on behalf of Charles E. Hughes, republican nominee, assailed the course of President Wilsony in dealing with Mexico, and his conduct of the country’s foreign affairs. “It combined lofty promise and complete failure in pertormance. It tonsisted of words which were nulli- fied by deeds,” he said in summing up his view ‘of the president’s gourse. Entering Kentucky in the forenoon, Colorlel Roosevelt delivered more than a dozen rear platform addresses before reaching Louisville. = Crossing the Ohio river at Cincinnati, his course took him almost to the Ten- nessee line. At Paris and Cynthigna he .told his audience he was glad to be in Kentucky where, if it was neces- sary, “the people were not too proud to fight.” His largest audiénces were at Winchester and Richmond. On his arrival here ghis evening he was met at the railroad station by a large crowd which escorted him to Phoenix Hill park, about two miles away, where he spoke. Many per- sons, unable to effect an entrance, were turned awsy. Wilson’s Omaha Utterance. Colonel Roosevelt referred to the president’s Omaha speech in this fashion: “President Wilson's speeches are models of adroit indirect suggestion and avoidance of downright state- ment. But the other /day at Omaha he seems ta have committed himself to the statement that he was ‘will- ing to fight, but was ‘waiting for something worth fighting for, for something which would ‘put all the corpuscles of his blood into shouting shape’ It would be interesting to know exactly what outrage on Aqner- ican citizens, or on the right of hu- manity anywhere, which would make him cross the line between being ‘willing to fight' and ‘too proud to fight’! He certainly did not regard the treacherous murder of Boyd and Adair, and this United States, as ‘something worth fighting for.” He did not even write a note about it. /The murder of 1,394 men, women and children on the Lusitania did not ‘put all the corpuscles of “his dblood-into shouting shape.” His-corpuscles did not shout; they did not even whisper; apparently all they did was to sag- gest to him that it was a happy og- casion for his classic remark about being ‘too proud to fight! I am tempted to think that Mr. Wilson did himself an injustice when he said that he was ‘willing to fight' either for any great cause or on account of any wrong hereafter done to this counfry; and that the truth was expressed the % | other day by his eager eulogist, Sec- retary Baker, when he said that he was ‘glad’ that ‘no one could insult Elecfis Officers State officers of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary so- ciety of the Lutheran church were elected Thursday at the convention in Library hall, South Side, as follows: President, Mrs. M. E. Bollinger, Nebraska City; vice president, Mrs. S. H. Yerian, Omaha; recording secre~ tary, Mrs. R. B. Weller, Omaha; cor- responding $ecretary, Mrs. E. A. Van Fleet, Omaha; treasurer, Mrs. D. M.

I criticise him onlygbe- him ‘only because my duty as an American citizen, Froud _of his coun- try and jealous of its honor, forces mé to stand against him. Apparently the chief claim adyanced for Mr. Wil- son riow is that hé has ‘kept us out of war! Mr. Wilson himGelf said in ef- fect-the other day that if he was not elected we would have war. Yet Mr. Wilson, through the democratic plat- form, announces that ‘the Mexicans have made war upon us, and have murdered our citizens.’ Apparently Mr. Wilson does not mind the Mexi- cans belng at war with us, as long as e are not at war with the Mexicans. Mr, Wilson's conception of war pain- full) resembles that described by Mr. Stephen Leacock in his anecdote of how Mr.”Smith took Mr, Tompkins by the coat collar' from ‘behifid and began kicking him vigorously, ‘and the fight continued in this manner for several minutes” The’ war out™ of which Mr. Wilson has not kept us with Mexico has been waged in, pre- cisely this manner; and Mr. Wilson's attitude has been precisely as digni- fied as that of the mishandled hero of Leacock’s anecdote. And the great military nations of the world have treated Mr. Wilson, and through Mr. Wilson have treated Uncle Sam, in-| similar fashion. = Made War on Hayti. “Mowever, in one case' Mr. Wilson asserted himself, Hayti had not be- haved towards us 100th part as badly as Mexico, nor one-tenth as badly as Germany; but Hayti had neither army nor navy, Hayti did not even have arms and -ammunition, and therefore President Wilson was not too proud of fight Hayti.

HYMENEAL Blankenbeckler-Boston. Miss Pansy Boston and Elmo D. lankenheckler of Craig, Neb, were married by Rev. Charles W. Savidge at his study, 703 Keeline building, | Mexico. We have had all the blood-y Wednesday at 5:15. They were ac- companied by Mr. and Mrs. Dunning o\f ekamah. I\ with impunity. Are you proud of the record, you Americans of Kentucky, you whose fathers were once not too proud to fight? Mr. Wilsoh has 'kept us out of war’ forsooth! Why, on our eastern'‘coast war now grins at us from just outside the three-mile limit, and on our southern border war has been waged on us within our own territory again and again by bands of armed invaders during the last three ears. “In his great book on international law, Vattel defines war ‘as the effort to assert rights by violence’ The Mexicans, during Mr. Wilson's term, have killed more Americans than the Spaniards killed in the Spanish war. We have now gathered on the Mexi- can border, and have kept.there for three months, a far larger army than the combined armies that took Cuba and the Philippines from the Spaniards—and I throw in ali the men on the American squadrons. There are down on the Mexican border at present more than ten times as many men as were in Mexico under Scott and Taylor combined in our war with shed and expense of war: But we have not secured what follows a wise, sighteous and manful war—peace.” Phene Doug. 4 The Best 'of Vaudeville.
