SUICIDAL LOGIO ! OFTHE DEMOCRATS Satisfaction is Merely Not Wanting Too Intensely What You Should Have. MUCH LESS 18 ENOUGH By A. R. GROH, Some people are never satisfied— always grumbling, grumbling. Now here are these folks, kicking about the high cost of living? They say the democrats didn't keep their pledge in the platform of four years ago to “reduce the cost of living,” Y'remember they reduced the tariff on sugar. We used to get twenty pounds for a dollar in the wicked days of republican high tariff. Now we get thirteen pounds, But, shucks, it isn't good for you to eat too much sugar. It's a good idea to cut down on it. 1f you didn’t eat so much it wouldn't cost you so much. Take canned goods, Canned toma- toes onlv cost about twice as much as they did four years ago, and canned corn and peas and beans have only gone up about 60 per cent. Cream cheese, that used to cost 16 cents, can be had for 25 cents right now, and domestic Swiss cheese has gone up even less than that. “Spuds” and Eggs. Potatoes only cost twice as much as they did last year, and eggs are only about 40 per cent higher than (h_tly were four years n{_o. hen there’s butter. The same qual- ity that used to cost 25 cents a pound only costs 37 today. What's a few cents on a pound of butter? We really eat too much butter. And if . we would only eat half as much as . we did under republican administra- tion why our butter bill wouldn't be it t's true that flour has e. Costs about $1045 a . at's more than it cost in civil war times, but we're not living in civil war times, are we? Why go back into ancient history like that? - Milk has gone up 50 per cent. We lly drink too much milk in this ntry. We would probably be bet- ter off without so much. Apt to be and things in it. g - Yes, shoes have doubled and tripled in price, but—well, there's no doubt ‘some good reason for that. Tabloids of Politics Little Items About the Progress of the Campaign. Frank S. Howell, chairman of the republican county central committee, has authorized the following state- ment of the political situation as viewed by himself: “From this day, until every voter shall have cast his ballot, each elector will be asking of himself the serious question: “What of the next four years?” “As usual, the democratic party c6mmenced its national campaign stronger than it finishes. I have failed to witness a campaign in my thirty- three years of observation of politics, wherein ‘democratic issues have been strengthened when the voters under- stand what they mean, “Democratic doctrines usually suf- fer when exposed to light. The only issue upon which they gave been con- sistent is that of tariff for revenue only, or free trade. Every time they have won, it worked their destruc- tion, “I only see victory for Mr. Hughes. Each day renders his election more certain, The conditions in Nebraska have been rapidly changing in the last two weeks and the changes to Mr, Hughes will be even more pronounced as the solemn hour of election ap- proaches.” Frank C. Best, chairman of the finance committee of the county com- missioners, states that election judges and clerks will receive their pay just as soon as the election commissioner has certified the payroll. Ben S. Baker, republican nominee for congress, spoke Thursday evening at Valley. John L. Kennedy addressed a meet- ing of Italian citizens Thursday even- ing, He received a cordial reception and was promised strong support by these men. Those who arranged the meeting were Joseph Cesto, Joseph Calabria, E. G. Maggi, Sebastian Sa- lerno and Carl Marfisi. THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1916. BRYAN WILL HOLD OPEN AIR MEETING Commoner, for First Time in His Life, Can't Hire a Hall in Nebraska. HAS “SOMETHING TO SAY” W. J. Bryan will speak Saturday evening on Capitol avenue, between Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, from a temporary platform, to an audience which will stand on the pavement and have the star-studded sky for a canopy. Mr, Bryan will “have a few things to say,” according to the promoters of the meeting. He will voice ap- proval of President Wilson, speak in behalf of the proposed prohibitory amendment and will express his mind on the local situation which makes it niecessary for him to speak in Omaha at an ofitdoor meeting, It will be the first time in Mr. Bryan's political career that he will have been required to speak at an outdoor meeting in Omaha, or at least the first time that he could not “hire a hall” in Omaha, so the prohibition- ists declare, Inside information indicate that the meeting will be full of “pep.” Lysle 1. Abbott will preside and r J. Dunn will give a preliminary address. Mr. Bryan will be met at Union depot by‘a committee of men. Mayor Dahlman issued a permit for the meet- ing on Capitol avenue, The north steps of the postoffice will be used by as many as can find seating space, The committee having the Bryan meeting in charge claim that the “wets” rented every place where a Bryan meeting might be held, except the public streets and the blue sky.
