LEWIS MAY
LOSE OUT
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
MINE WORKERS OPPOSED FOR
REELECTION BY JOHN WHITE,
POPULAR IOWAN.
(Herald Specially

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 13.-Wheth-
er Thomas l.. Lewis shall continue as
president of the United Mine Workers
of America, to which office he sue
ceeded upon the retirement of John
Mitchell three years ago, will be de-
termined by today's referendum cleo
ton, the results of which will be an
nounced at the general convention of
the organization in Columbus next
mopth. The opposition to Lewis is
said to have been steadily gaining
strength for a long time past and
those at the head of the movement
confidently declare that the count of
the ballots will show the defeat of
the president.
Lewis's loss of popularity among
the rank and file of the organization
is attributed chiefly to the stand he
took early in the present year in re-
gard to the strike of the coal miners
in the Illinois field. Notwithstanding
the fact that a vote of the men in
volved showed their determination to
continue the strike until their cause
was won, President Lewis attempted
to force them to accept the compro
mise offered by the mine owners and
even threatened to withdraw the sup
port of the national organization un7
less the men yielded The special
convention held in this city to settle
the matter showed that the organiza-
ton as a whole was not in sympathy
with the stand taken by the president.
1t has been the vote of the Illinois
miners that has elected Lewis for
the last two years, and his opponents
say it will be the Illinois vote that
will accomplish his defeat at the
present election.
The choice of the opposition to sue
coed Lewis is John p. White, presi-
dent of the Iowa district. Friends of
White predict that he will receive a
majority of forty thousand votes in

WE GET ALDRiCH.
Both The County and State Go DEM
ocratic. Hope for Lieutenant
Governor and Sec. of State

The only decided victory for the
REPUBLICAN party is the election of
Governor. Aldrich's majority over
Dahlman is at least $4,000. The
state ticket is otherwise democratic.
though today, Thursday, there is still
the belief that we may get the lieu
tenant governor and state treasurer,
at best these candidates will run
very close.
The county is entirely democratic.
The fact remains however that the
democrat gain has been made only by
booze dominated districts and in the
o~ut-laying and less enlightened dis
tricts. The democratic ticket lost
some in wards and previncts where
the ~law-abiding and moral citizens
held their homes above the head of th
party ticket. Where the vote could
be swayed by booze or a bid for law
lessness there was a ~decidedgain.
There has bee ma lesson too in
the defeat. Yet in the defeat we
see victory, for the state has stood
for principal and a careful canvas of
the county precincts and our city
shows that the better element will
not be dominated very much longer
by the liquor traffic. Whenever it
comes to carrying an election on thes'
lines you will find there will be a
strong rally to the front. Though We
lose the county and state ticket we
are proud of the fact thatold Nebrask
ka has ~repudiated brewery rule.
The Falls City tribune., 1910-11-11

Aldrich's victory is a distinct Veto
~ for reform. 1t amounts to a decla-
ration on the part of the intelligent
citizenship of the state In favor of
county option and the suppression of
brewery domination.

nuisance In public places, especially
in places where women aud children
congregate is one of the signs that
speak eloquently of better things.
That smoking blunts ones sense of
regard for the rights and comforts
of others is constantly illustrated by
the manne in which smokers disre-
gard every rule of common deeency
in the qualification of this filthy
habit. II does not enter their cal
lowed faculties, that non-smokers
may not enjoy the odor and stencil
of tobacco fumes. They cannot real
lie that the smell of tobcaco smoke
causes actual distress to thousands
of people. My mother always be-
came violently sick when compelled
bacco smoke. and would suffer acute
misery for hours. As for myself, /
have v been able to reconcile my
feelings and of the fitness OF
things to this useless and vulgar hab-
1t, and suffer a%cutely whenever COM
PEELED to be in company with n who
abuses the finer sense OF fellowship

The anti-cigarette laws of Nebras-
ka are extremely severe. Any per-
son giving to a minor the markings"
Is liable to severe penalties If arrang-
ed. Soon after the opening of school
this fall the boys might have been
seen amusing themselves by rolling
slips of paper into a bell shaped
form and after inserting a pin in
the taporing end, casting the contriv-
ance, spear fashion at the boy or
girl nearest him, the idea being to
stick the ~curiously shaped affair In
to the others clothing. Upon inves.
tigation 1t was found that the slips of
paper used were cigarette slips. and
obtained freely by the boys from deal
ers In Falls City. They were furnish
ed free, obviously by providing a
novel diversion for the boys to get
them to use them largely and thus
familiarize them with the ''makings''
of the cigarette, and lead them to
acquire a taste for tobacco. In the
| rolling of the tubes it was necessary
to wet the one end of the paper, The
paper was heavily scented with tobac.
co, thus giving him a taste of tobacco
and the smell every time he put a
slip to his lips. For a week OF more
The practice was almost universal
among the smaller boys. The
scheme was devilish in the extreme.
and clearly against thelaw.
We are glad to call attention again
to the fact that the evil has been
suppressed for time being. But, we
would urge upon the proper authorit-
les the need of watchfulness. Boys
are still getting and smoking cigar
etts. The practice should be broken
up. This will be difficult, | admit.
But our boys should be saved from
this blight.

The Oberammergau Graft.

OF the large number OF Walters to
Oberammergau Frank L. Halter is not
the only one to criticise severely the
Passion Play and the conditions gov
erning it. His recent account in The
Bee, Illuminating as 1t was, is only one
OF many similar protests all over the
country. The common complaint
against the play and its actors and
managers is the high commercializa-
tion permeating ALL The players, de-
voted as they may be to a religious
idea, are none the less eager for large
gate receipts, and the simple villagers,
earnest as they may seem in the faith,
are yet capitRlizing this sublime trag-
edy into dollars and cents with an
avidity that i'll becomes such a solemn
institution.
Mr.. Halter says gTasping ticket
brokers are doing a mean business
subjecting tourists to all sorts of inn
positions; that hotel fare is poor and
costly and that everything about the
village and institution smacks OF the
dollar 80 loudly as to exclude any
pious thought of the Son Of God. Cath
Ollie priests protest that the church is
being forgotten in the benefits that
flow from the box ONCE that individ-
uals are prospecting mostly, the village
some, the church not at all
But, after all, these results are but
natural. In the earlier years before
the money possibilities OF the Passion
Play presented themselves; before, in
fact, the performers we're quite as we'll
up in the science Of finance as they
are today, it was easy to conserve the
religious element in the people and
the play, but it is a question II this
will ever be possible again From
now on the show is sure to be con-
Quoted as a strictly business enterprise
and only one OF the many schemes by
which shrewd Europeans separate
wealthy tourists from their money.
The whole thing has come to such a
pass that the thought OF dramatizing
Christ's suffering and death doubtless
has been condemned by a large pro-
portion OF the religious world. The
utter onensiveness OF the present
spirit Of rampant oommereialization
