Mr.. Pollard. There have been

was before. In some places there are
some republicans for Wilson, while
in other places there is decided

ton that there can be loss by Mr..

Democratic Trick
To Injure Kennedy
Proves to Be Fizzle

Lincoln, Nov. 5.-(Special. 1.-The
last attempt of the democratic state
committee to throw suspicion on the
methods used by John L. Kennedy,
in his campaign for the United States
senate met a setback which proved a
boomerang when, after an investiga-
ton OF the charges made that the
Kennedy headquarters had been send
ing out letters emanating from a pro-
gressive source and enclosing them
in envelopes bearing return card
OF democratic headquarters, presum-
ably to carry the impression that they
came from democratic source favoring
the election of Mr.. Kennedy, it was
discovered last night that just one
poor lone letter had been forwarded
to democratic headquarters, alleging
that it had been received by former
progressive.
The investigation disclosed the fact
that the list Of progressives furnished
Victor Seymour, manager of the Ken
needy campaign, by F. P. Corrick, STATE
chairman of the progressive party,
from which letters were sent, did not
contain the name of the man alleged
to have received the letter, and also
that the letter was addressed on a
typewriter having purple ribbon,
while all typewriters used in both the
Kennedy and republican state head
quarters use black ribbons.
As the letter was sent out from Lin
coin and in an envelope with demo-
cratic return card, the republican COM
mittee is sure 1t was sent out by the
democratic committee themselves.

ENDEAYOR MEETING
CLOSES SUNDAY
Largest Gathering of the Kind
in the State in Session Here
for Last Four Days.
MANY MEETINGS ARE HELD

ITO be first-class citizen we must
be good men OF business, good teach
ers and thinkers, good churchmen and
good family men," said Rev J. A.
Leavitt, state superintendent OF the
Society for the Friendless, at the
mems mass meeting in the Brandeis
theater.
1t was one OF the meetings in the
last day of the Nebraska State Chris
tian Endeavor convention.
1--WE must be square in business
he said. 1--WE must teach Our chill
dren and our fellow men rightly and
we must think on public problems and
act for the greatest good Of the great
est number. We must be good church
men. 1t doesn't matter whether we
are Catholics or Protestants or OF
what denomination; we must be faith
full to the church with which we wor-
ship. We must be good family men
and look out for the next generation"
Daniel A. Polling of Boston, assist
ant to Rev. DR.. Francis E, Clark, in
ternational president Of Christian En-
deavor, spoke on Citizenship"
Delinquency in public life keeps
step with indifference in private life"
he declared. when public affairs are
administered badly il is usually be-
cause private citizens don't care.
Religious Freedom.
"We should thank God daily for the
religious freedom we have in this
country. Men OF any religion can
meet and worship as they believe. In
Russia DR., Clark found that no pri-
waite religious gathering Of more than
seven persons is tolerated. We should
be thankful, too, for our industrial
freedom, for, in the last analysis, men
in the industries get the rights to
which they are entitled. And we
should be thankful for our educational
freedom, for our magnificent public
school system, which is the founda-
ton OF our liberties, In Spain over
rs per cent Of the common people
cannot read or write. Here practical
ly everybody can read and write and
'figgcr, too"
The day was full OF activities for
the Christian Endeavorers. A quiet
hour and bible study at 9 a. M, di-
vine service in the International Ian
guage, Esperanto at 10 a. m. marked
the morning. Some of the delegates
spoke at various churches. \
Rally for Children.
Besides the afternoon mems mass
meeting, there was a woman's mass
meeting at the First Christian church,
where temperance rally for the chill
dren was held and several addresses
were given for the adults.
In the, evening at the Brandeis the
final meeting was held Most of the
Christian Endeavor societies of the
city united their regular meetings
with the convention meeting, which
was held at the Brandeis at $50 p.
m. A song and praise service, with
the big city union chorus on the
stage, was held at 7:30. Addresses
by Bishop Bell Of Los Angeles and
Daniel A. Polling Of Boston marked
the evening meeting
The theater was crowded to ca
pacity and with this meeting the
thirtieth annual convention of the
state union closed, the biggest and
best Christian Endeavor convention
ever held in Nebraska.

Devoe Proves Good
Campaigner Over
State for G.. @. P.

Lincoln Nov. 5.--(Special. )-Prac-
tically unknown to the rank and file
OF the republican party six months
ago, Robert w. Devoe, after cam
paign OF oratory, which took him into
sixty counties OF the state, is today
one OF the most popular speakers in
Nebraska.
In many particulars the record OF
Devoe has never been equalled. He is
the republican nominee for attorney
general. but has never mentioned that
fact in his Speeches. He has never
mentioned the name Of his opponent.
and never alluded to the latter, al
though General Reed has been sub
jected to running fire of criticism
perhaps even more severe than has
Neville.
Mr.. Devoe has spoken in sixty coun-
tics. He made forty-five consecutive
night speeches, practically all Of them
preceded by from two to twenty day
speeches.
In his speeches he urged the selec-
ton OF Hughes, the choice OF John l..
Kennedy for United States senator,
and the election Of Sutton and the
republican state ticket. At Ponca he
met Dan V. Stephens in joint debate
and the oratorical bout was one Of the
dramatic incidents OF the campaign,
He assailed the record OF the demo-
cratic congressman and pleaded for
the election OF Kennedy and Warner.
Devoe was born in Franklin county,
studied law at the University Of Ne
braska and has practiced law at Sid
ncy and Lincoln.
In the opinion of the republic
can campaign managers, Mr.. Devoe's
7pesking tour, the longest and most
srdous of any state candidate, has
added materially to the strength Of
Kennedy, Sutton and the national and
congressional tickets Regardless Of
the outcome OF the election, they de-
clare, Mr.. Devoc has made an enviable
name as an orator.
