NACKAY SCORED BY
OTHER MINISTER'S
Ministerial Union Repudiates
Views of Episcopal Pastor
e
on the Liquor Issue.
HOLDS A SPECIAL MEETING

The Omaha Ministerial union, at
special meeting Saturday morning,
adopted resolutions regulating the
liquor ideas of Rev. T. J. Mackay as
set forth in an advertisement in local
newspapers by the Prosperity league
Some of the ministers held that it
would be best to ignore the stater
ment, but majority favored putting
the ministerial unions principles def
initely on record.
The resolution was as follows:
Whereas, Rev. T. ]. Mackay, pastor OF
All Saints Episcopal church of Omaha, has
seen fit over his own signature and under
the auspices of the Prosperity league Of
Nebraska, to print in the daily press Of
Nebraska lengthy article defending the
liquor traffic; and
Whereas, In this article he makes a la
bored effort to show that prohibition IL con-
trary to the sublime principle of love as
enunciated by our Lord and Master, Jesus
Christ: therefore be 1t
Resolved by tho Omaha Ministerial union,
which is made up Of approximately 90 per
cent of all the Protestant ministers of
Omaha and vicinity, that we do hereby en-
tirely repudiate both the promises and the
conclusions Of Rev. T. J. Maekay.
We believe that his statements In this
matter are entirely contrary to the teach
ings of Jesus of Nazareth, and of Paul, His
apostle. We are firmly convinced that the
entire influence Of the New Testament and
Of pure Christianity Is opposed to the liquor
traffic in all Its forms. This Is our solemn
belief and we call upon all our Christian
community to give consideration to this, our
conviction.
with charity for all, and with malice
toward none" we make this statement. The
issue is clearly Joined. Jesus Christ and the
liquor business can never live and work In
the same atmosphere. The modern saloon
Is wholly antagonistic to His Spirit.

FINE ART LECTURER
VERY MUCH PEEVED
And Women Of the Society Are
Peeved at Action of the Lee
turer, Who Changed Talk.
BLAME IT TO TEMPERAMENT

Fine Arts society members are
highly indignant with their lecturer,
Charles H. Cafin. Telephones were
busy all morning while its members
discussed alleged ill-natured out
bursts on the part of the art critic.
Mrs. w. G. IRE, the president, while
confessing disappointment in the lee
turer, was inclined to attribute the
trouble to Mr.. Caffin's high strung,
nervous temperament and the eccen-
tricities Of artists as rule.
A thinly yelled reference i'll his
first lecture Thursday to women who
had never seen q Rembrandt or a
great master, yet who brought lee
turers to their clubs to talk to them
about things of which they knew lit
tie, drew little comment from the
members at the time, but members
were recalling it with avidity Satur-
day. .a
Talk is Commonplace.
Il think Mr.. Cafin did not under
stand his Omaha audience. He is
nerhaps used to talking to women
who are striving to know something
about art, but who haven't had OPP
portunities to study. He doesn't

This authoritative statement issued
by Mt. Wilson through his secretary

there has been continuous bloodshed

and vast properties developed by
American capital and enterprise de-
stroyed; that the murderers have not
been brought to justice; that during
the last nine months there have been
constant inyasions, depredations and
murders on American soil by Mexican
bandits; that American soldiers have
been killed; American ranches raided,
American railway trains wrecked and
plundered, and American towns de-
stroyed; and that Carranza's soldiers
and adherents took part in the looting,
burning and killing; that the murders
were characterized by ruthless bru-
tality and barbarous mutilation; that
some of the leaders In these atrocities
have not only received protection, but
encouragement and aid from Car
ranza's government; that during this
time there was instance after instance
of the barbarous slaughter OF Ameri-
cans in Mexico itself, in addition to
the heinous crimes committed in MUIR
dering, burning and plundering on
American soil; that Carranza's gener-
ais made no effort to stop the crimes,
and that Carrapza himself was either
unable, or else considered it undesir--
able, to punish the criminals; that
Carranza gave neither cooperation
nor assistance to the American troops
who pursued the bandits; that on the
contrary, Carranza's adherents halted
the American pursuit 1t Parral and
became the protectors OF Villa and

quired for seed, requirements would be
about 62O,O00,00O bushels This would
leave 100000 bushels Of this year s pro-
duction for export.
Last years crop of 1,012, 100000 bushels
was record one. The department men
claim that the 34,OOO,OOO export margin
on this year s crop has excited spectators,
causing them to forget that 160,O00,0O0

According to the Chicago Tribune Of
August II, federal investigation of an
alleged conspiracy formed month ago
between a number of big milling interests
and grain operators of the northwest, to
manipulate the wheat market, has been
under way for several weeks.
One report turned in by an investigator
shows that the millers and other wheat
dealers, purposely held back a vast quan-
tity Of grain from the crop Of 1915. This
revelation led to the assumption that the
sudden jump in the price Of wheat is not
entirely due to the prediction Of short
age, as claimed by board Of trade oper-
ators.

mands that, on sanitary grounds, loaves

EVERSMAN AND WILCOX PRODUCE
FIGURES TO SHOW THAT
HUGHES WILL WIN

Charles E. Hughes, Republican presiden-
tial candidate, has this week. in his swing
around the circle from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coasts, made speeches at various
points in Montana and Washington, in
Guiding Billings, Butte, Spokane, and
Tacoma.
President Wilson advised his campaign
managers, on August Is, that he would not
tour the country during the campaign.
He is reported to have said that he con-
siders that the best way to lay his cause
before the people is to remain quietly at
his post in Washington or at his home in
New Jersey after Congress adjOurns, and
occasionally 60 out to some one of the
more important cities to make an address.
John G. Eversman, secretary of the Re-
publican congressional committee, pro-
duces figures, by means Of a card index
system, which he says prove conclusively
that Hughes will easily win
According to Mr.. Eversman, the sena-
torial and congressional elections in twen-
ty-three states in 1914 showed Republican
victories These twenty-three states have
$50 electoral votes, or % more than are
necessary to elect president Of the United
States. In these states, the Progressive
party, two years ago, cast between
100000 and 100000 votes His assump-
ton is, that the Republicans, with most of
the 100000 Progressive voters in the
twenty-three states, are certain to do bet
ter than they did two years ago, which
would mean a majority for Hughes.
This year, outside Of the states included
in the table, a great effort will be made by
Republicans to carry the election in Cali
fornia, Montana, Nevada, Arizona, New
Mexico, Colorado, Nebraska, South Oak
ota, Missouri, Indiana, and Kentucky.
Mr. William r. Wilcox, Hughes s cam
paign manager, claims that Hughes will
win by at least 300 electoral votes, while
only 266 are needed to elect. Intelligent
readers, however, know that such predic-
tions cannot always be depended upon
however carefully drawn. No one can
tell what circumstances might arise be-
tween now and the election to throw
strong wave Of sentiment in Wilson's
favor. For instance, should he succeed in
settling the present railway controversy
and averting a strike, it would, no doubt,
greatly enhance his popularity over the
country.

AUGUST REPORTS SHOWS START
LING DECREASE IN THIS YEARS
WHEAT CROP

Government reports for August regard
ing the American wheat crop have caused
great surprise. Early in the season, those
who figured on a crop of 750,000,00O bush
els were thought to be low in their esti-
mate, but the August report Of the De-
partment Of Agriculture cuts the figure
down to 654,000,000 bushels, with prob
ability of this estimate being lowered next
month.
Declaring that, unless Congress acts, the
price Of bread would surely advance be-
yond the reach Of the average consumer,
the National Association Of Master Bakers
petitioned Congress, on August IL, to i'm
pose an embargo on wheat Government
experts, however, unite in saying that
there is no need Of fear, even should there
be a far more serious shortage in this
years crop than reported.
The experts figure that, on the basis of
5.3 bushels per capita year, the average
