DUBUQUE, Ia, oct. pa pro-
found sensation has been created
here. the home OF a large German
American population, by the publ
cation Of a statement by a prominent
citizen Of German birth in which he
points out with great clearness and
force how the republican party, in
it's attempt 10 defeat the reelection
of Pres't Wilson is badly using the
German-Americans as a catspaw.
The author of this statement is
the Rev. r. Heineke. who for years
vas pastor Of St. Johns Lutheran
church in this city. and who now is
i'm business in New York city. The
Rev. Mr. Heineke while a resident
OF Dubuque was chairman OF the
German press committee Of the Ger
man embargo conference, as well as
OF the German Red Cross of Du-
buque. He was recognized here as
2 leader Of German thought and for
a long time was severely critical of
Pres't Wilson. Now" he says Il
for one am ashamed 10 confess that
l have misjudged the president"
Had Misjudged Wilson.
I'VE misjudged Pres't Wilson's po-
sition in this world conflict" says
Mr.. Heineke in beginning his state
ment. assuming it TO be pro-Eng-
lish and un-American. Naturally
we identified his actions with those
of the pro- British press. every ut
terance Of which appeared to the
German-American element 10 reflect
the mind Of our government.
Republican party interests have
not been slow TO make capital out OF
this state of affairs and TO work the
German-American vote for all it is
worth, assisted by the German Ian
guage press. In the heat Of the
! controversy we overlooked entirely

toward the south with his appoint
ments 20 government positions and
added that not one southern man
held an appointment TO foreign en-
bassy positions while positions in the
Washington offices were not distrib-
uted partially. That the birthplace
OF a man should be no reason to oar
him from appointment II he was eff
hcient. was the declaration OF the
speaker.
Following Congressman Aswell,
Hon. w. y. Washburn. president OF
the Wilson Independent league OF
Chicago. spoke on the political sit
uation in general. Mr.. Washburn is
a noted attorney and a former re-
publican. His talk was especially in
structive TO doubtful voters and was
we'll received.
Chairman o. NJ. Conley next in
troduced r. G. Freddie. who is
a progressive and head OF the Will
son Independent league of Indiana
Mr. Freddie spoke directly TO the
progressive voters. He clearly show
ed the weakness OF the republican
party and the necessity OF the pro-
gressive voters supporting Woodrow
Wilson In his campaign.

thousand jeweled lights.
The pearl cloud was coming gently down,
and as It came nearer Tulip Heart saw on
It a beautiful young prince. He was stand
ing right in the centre OF the cloud, with a
gold staff in his hand. AS he moved the
lgold stan backward or forward the cloud
rose or fell
The cloud came down to the ground right
beside little Tulip Heart, and the beautiful
prince got off. Tulip Heart clapped her
hands with delight. he looked so nice and
good And he was the good Prince Marmo-

5 MINUTES ON SCREEN
MAKES MOVIE FUTURE,
Like Mae Murray, an Evening
Ledger Scenario Actor, May
Land a Contract
BY the Photoplay Editor

When the last crop of zicgfeld Folles
was in town you may have noticed in the
very laughable burlesque of moving pic
ture which they threw on the curtain
young lady who, unlike the rest of the
screen actors. wasn't member of the sure
enough company which acted the remainder
of the Follies. The explanation was that
this pretty young lady happened 20 be in
California at the time starring in big
feature film made by the Lasky Company.
And, to finish the explanation, 1t was Mae
Murray's short five minutes on the screen
In the Folles burlesque that won her con-
tract with Lasky.
The moral? Well. the EVENING LEDGER
is just starting n photoplay cast contest
for Philadephlans to act the prize-winner
In it's scenario competition. If you have
some organization or some body Of friends
enter your name for that contest and vote
you into a part. maybe just maybe, of
course-for IL all depends on your having
the real screen face" and the real screen
talent-some producer who sees the EVEN
ING LEDGER photoplay will sign you up"
