Purposely Stayed Away But Calls Attention to Pledges Kept by Party, Including the Code Bill. From the "Beautiful Isle of Some where," Governor S. R.

McKelvie sent an epistle to the republican state con vention in session in Lincoln Tuesday. The exact location of the governor was not given in his letter, but he had hesitancy In stating therein that he had purposely avoided taking any part in the deliberations of the convention, yet he was so interested in the work of the convention and In having it make a specific declaration of republican principles that he thought it best to drop a line to Chairman Charles A McCloud. Among pledges of the party In Nebraska the governor refers to hit code bill as one of the promises redeemed. He touched upon national and state affairs and calls attention of a big reduction which brings state taxes down to within 12 per cent of the tax rate in 1917. He promises to give his active support to the entire state ticket The governor's letter to Qharmn MoCloud is in this form: "I derfre to zpreai to the rapnbttatna ol In your deliberations today, and yet I am Intensely interested thst your convention shall make a apeciflo and uneauovlcai de claration of republican principles.

need not make appeal to prejudice to assure the people that ours is the party of progress And as for taxes, what with th manifest economies that hav been effected by th present national republican administration, and with the state tax levy reduced one third this year and back to within IS Per cent of what it waa in 1917. we need have no fear of the results of the hue and cry that will be put up by th democrat on that point. 'When tho campaign I anally on. It I my hope to be actlv in supporting th n-th ticket. Meanwhile permit to moat earnestly thank th republican of Nebraska for the substantial support they hav given in th past."

Hitchcock, senator from Nebraska, and a candidate tor re-election, discussed national issues during the greater part of his convention address. Of state issues and candidates the senator said "Of the head of our state ticket I can speak with peculiar freedom and sincerity. For a number of years there has been no political Intimacy between him and me. We have differed as honest men differ and we have, upon occasion, fought as honest men fight. Now that that occasion has passed we can co-operate as free men co-operate.

He won his nomination for governor on his own nieritf and in a fair contest against strong opponents ana I congratulate the democracy of Nebraska upon having placed at the head of its strong state ticket a man of the courage, character and ability of Charles W. Bryan. "Let me also say a word about the congressional ticket. Nebraska is entitled to six members in the house of representatives. In times past when democracy was at high tide we have been able to elect three of them.

Looking at our congressional ticket this year I have no hesitancy in saying that as a whole It is the strongest congressional ticket we have ever nominated. Among our six candidates for congress are two former governors and a former lieutenant governor, while the candidates in the other districts are men of peculiar strength and popularity. Thus looking over the state ticket and the congressional ticket I feel Justified in congratulating the democracy of Nebraska upon the prospect of success. "Now for a few words as to the state issues. "First of all, be it said that we did not make them.

They were made by the present republican administration in Nebraska. It has apparently been bent upon bankrupting the state and and Impoverishing the taxpayers with a recklessness not equaled in any other state of the union. Tbe present and previous republican administration has multiplied taxes three times and plundered the people by senseless and useless extravagances until It has made of our state government a devouring monster. This record presents the chief, and indeed the overwhelming state issue in this campaign. The democratic party, which has a reputation and record for economy, in state "government, is pledged to undo the acts which have made this one of the worst governed states in the union.

It is pledged to do away with the waste, extravagances and graft which have made the state of Nebraska a by-word in the nation. I cannot doubt that this ticket which has been nominated, and this issue if there were no other, would lead to a glorious triumph In November. Every tax receipt is a democratic campaign document Let me repeat that statement. Every tax receipt In every county is a democratic campaign document this year. I hope all members of this convention will call that to the attention of their constituents at home.

It is not my discovery; I did not coin the expression. It should be credited to Mr. William J. Bryan who has so often in the past led us to victory in Nebraska and who knew how to tell a great truth In a few words. "I hope to be able to give to the campaign in Nebraska's six or seven solid weeks of work.

During that time I hope to renew old acquaintances and make new ones. I shall then be prepared to nmke to my constituents a report of my acts at Washington and await the verdict they will render in November." Heat Causes Train Delay. SPALDING.

Wherever two or more men met in the state house corridors Tuesday might be heard such remarks as: "I know your face.

Yet yes. I remember; I heard you make a speech once." It was republican state convention day and delegates visited, at the state house prior to the opening ceremon ies and keynoting. They were warmly received by state officials and their assistants, especially by those who are trying to stay in than by those who are going out. The convention itself, which for merly exercised the right of political life or death over office holders and office seekers but which now can do little except reaffirm, deplore promise and implorewas not entirely popular with delegates who came to attend it Many lambasted the primary law. "You can go to fifty democrats and fifty republicans, said M- D.

Tyler of Madison, "and probably forty-five of each party will say the primary is bad, but all the newspapers are for it and nobody can do a thing to get rid of it" Governor McKelvie, from some where in Nebraska wrote the republi can state convention a letter, stating that he had purposely stayed away so as not to be mixed upon the working of the convention. He then proceeded to name a lot of good things the party had done to re deem its promises, Including the enact ment of the code law. Reed Missed Being Governor. Perry Reed of Hamilton county was among the delegates to the state con vention. Mr.

Reed is a candidate for reelection to tbe state senate. He might now be the republican nominee for governor Instead of Charles H. Randall of Randolph it he had only flipped a copper. This is the tale told by those of a small group of state senators who met privately during the legislature of 1921. The gathering was for the purpose of centering upon some one to lead the republican forces In the year 1922.

It was about a tie between Reed and Randall, and at one time it was reported either was willing to flip a coin to de cide who should make the sacrifice. Mr. Reed went borne after the session and wrote Mr. Randall he could not afford to enter a campaign lor governor. Mr.

Randall then announced him self and was later nominated at the primaries. For Tax On Jack Rabbits. Charles H. Epperson of Fairfield, legislator, investigator of roads and attorney at law, called at the state house and came very near missing the convention speech at the forenoon session. He became interested In bis own troubles and forgot.

"I desired very much to be on the convention committee on platform and to be the only member so that there might be perfect harmony in the committee," he said, "but I have had no promise of a place. I went to J. L. McCarthy of Ponca who is to be a member and tried to get him to put in a plank endorsing my tax on jack rabbits for the road fund. While he did not say be would not offer such a plank I fear he will not because he told me to go to the devil.

1 want to see Superintendent W. J. O'Brien of the fish hatcheries while I am here. He put a lot of fish in the streams in our county and promised faithfully he would test them before hand and and send only fish that will bite. The fact is you can't catch a fish there without a seine or dynamite.

Attorney General Davis was in his office up to near the noon' hour answering inquiries. He denied that he was there waiting for political lightning to strike. He hurried to the convention hall to hear Temporary Chairman Earl Cllne. An Omaha man reported at the state house that both the republican and democratic county delegations to state conventions picked in Douglas county read like a roster of the Amerisan legion. The republican central committee picked a legion man for temporary chairman of the state convention, which made the Douglas delegation feel still more at home.

It was admitted that the commit tee's report would have considerable bearing on the convention color and possibly the platform. Members of the credentials group: C. E. Whltaker, Plattsmouth; Roy Pil-ger, Plainview; Eugene Lyon, Mc-Cook; Mayor T. J.

Ellsberry, Grand Island; C. E. Phillips, Keystone; Ed Klone, BradBhaw. Mrs. Grace Welch of Bennett was made temporary secretary of the convention.

It was generally believed that the platform would contain many of the ideas and expressions of Judge Wray who delivered the keynote adrlresa. There was, however, considerable doubt as to the chairmanship of the platform committee. It was rumored during the noon hour that the choice probably would rest between Chairman Edmlsten and Rev. J. L.

Beebe of Omaha. During the long debate over manner or naming the credentials committee, Mr. Taylor indicated that his ear is to the moss and that his nose is extended for some strange and unsatisfactory aroma. "Something is brewing that ought not to brew," he said. The gentleman from Custer declared that if a little more time had been given all differences could have been ironed out.

Others insisted that the ironing process had been performed in complete and satisfactory manner. The question of the hour was whether or not the committee will be instructed to fill out the unfilled portion of republican and democratic nominees was given little attention but it was intimated that the commit tee will be given something to do after the convention adjourns. The balance of power faction wants that power used where It will not be wasted. There were a number of candidates In the hotel lobby. This was taken to Indicate that they are not averse to support beyond that of their own party.

"The reactionaries thought we were to have a funeral down here. But we're not," said Rev. J. L. Beebe.

In speaking to the striking shopmen, the said; "The place for you laboring men to strike is at the ballot box. When this strike is over, you haven't settled your problem." Harry Luts, state manager of the nonpartisan league, expressed sym pathy for the shopmen and. declared that the farmers are 100 per cent back of the strike-Judge Wray was given a big hand His plea for elimination of war was popular with the crowd. He urged that manufacture of all war equipment be in the hands of the federal government alone. And if ever the United States epgages In another war, he wants it to be sanctioned by direct vote of the people who pay the war bills.

He would abolish electrical college, would repeal the Esch-Cum-mlns act and favors government ownership of railroads, telephones and coal, mines. He is for adoption of a new scientific money system on the general principle of Senator Ladd's Honest Money bill. He favors protection of labor's right to strike. He favors the open primary and would abolish the party circle. He believes In municipal Ice and municipal telephone rates.

He wants his party to be free politically, economically and spiritually. And the delegates apparently are with him. to the prohibition party as candidates for senator. Some little difficulty and misunderstanding was encountered because a list of candidates from the secretary of state Included no1 gubernatorial names. Johnson brothers were appointed to call at the secretary of state's office for information about the matter.

Several speeches were made in behalf and against both C. H. Randall and C. W. Bryan and a suggestive ballot was taken to determine which one the convention favored.

There was a division of opinion, so no suggestion of the party's choice could be offered. The treasurer's report showed a balance of $1.94 on hand at the present time, with pledges of about $70 yet to come in. August 1, 1920, the books showed a balance of $169.10. By subscriptions, $61.50 was received, making a total of $230.60. Expenditures amounted to $228.66, leaving $1.94.

The convention met again shortly after 1 o'clock, with most of the delegates back, to get to the fundamental business of the meeting. IN DEFENSE OF D0GT0RS HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF LINCOLN SAYS WORD FOR THEM. Not Deserving the Criticism Placed on Physicians by the State Board of Health in Recent Bulletin. Dr. Chauncey F.

Chapman, superintendent of health for the city of Lin coln, takes exceptions to bulletins is sued by the state board of health criticizing physicians of the state. So far as Lincoln doctors are concerned, Dr. Chapman says, the criticisms are unjust and the charges untrue. Dr. Chapman says: "Several articles have appeared In the public press recently critk'sing physicians in Nebraska for their alleged negligence in not notifying the proper authorities when one or more of the notifiable diseases comes under their observation.

"The state health authorities are responsible for two articles condemning the physicians, as a whole, in Nebraska for being derelict in duty. From the articles appearing, I feel sure that the state department did not Intend to slam Lira physicians, be cause there is no g. for the accusations put forth, but' at the same time Lincoln was not excepted. If these statements are allowed to go unchallenged, the natural impression would go broadcast that the doctors in Nebraska are, as a whole, "a little short of being criminals. The department of health within the confines of Lincoln, being Intensely Interested in health work in -oln, feels duty bound to attempt this undeserved criticism the ph-lclans practising in Lincoln.

"We are fully conversant with the situation in Lincoln and will say, practically speaking, to our knowledge we do not believe there lives in Lincoln a doctor- who has wilfully neglected to report any case of notifiable disease to this department coming under his or her observation. "We wish to state further, that the doctors in Lincoln are a competent part of the health department and their co-operation has played no Bmall part in making this department what it is today and the standing it has among health workers in "This department is a conscientious believer in what we deem to be a fact that a department of health without the interest and assistance of the doctors can accomplish very little. In fact, each doctor is, generally speaking, a medical inspector working in the interest of the people of Lincoln. "This department does the follow-up work after the doctor has mapped out the proper precautions to be followed. Let it be said and truthfully so, that the doctors practising in Lincoln have always reported diseases coming under their care and go to a good deal of trouble and some expense in for warding the record of births.
