Farmers Union Head
Says Corn Burning
No New Procedure

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 28.-Burning
corh>as a substitute for coal is not a
new procedure for Nebraska farmers,
according to c. H. Gustafson, presi-
dent of the Nebraska Farmers
union. Reports reaching Mr.. Gus
tafson from many parts of the state
indicate that the farmers are sefious-
ly considering the using of corn this
year as a substitute for the high
priced coal.
MANY farmers have been forced
to sell unshelled corn at 48 cents a
bushel," Mr.. Gustafson said. AS
suming that new corn weighs 20
pounds to the bushel, it is readily
understood why it is cheaper to burn
grain as fuel in preference to coal
that costs at least'$l7 ton," he said.
In the early history Of the state it
was a common practice among the
farmers to burn coal as fuel, Mr..
Gustafson said. In recent years,
however, the price of coxn has not
justified the farmers in such a prac-
tice. Mr.. Gustafson is, of the opinion
that farmers of the state have not
used corn as fuel since l9O6-when
the corn crop was even larger than
this years estimated yield of 2sl,-
$4,000 bushels.

Americanisrn to

Hays Declares
No Failure Under Leadership
Of Harding and Coolidge,
Republican National

BY WILL H. HAYS.
Republican National Chairman.

New York. Oct. 28.-Drop, Sunday
and there are three more working
days of'this campaign. So far as
the republicans OF the country are
concerned, the three days will be as
full of enthusiasm as of work.
The spur of the endeavorN ever is
present. Our candidates are men
who inspire effort in their behalf,
not only because they are the, kind
OF men that they are, but because
OF the high Americanism which they
represent III
Under certain leaders there can be
no failure, and there is no failure
this year Thk leadership of Warren
G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge ap-
peals to men and women voters of
the United States not only to the
republicans, but to thousands of
others whose creed, like that, of the
republicans, is Ameticanism.
\ From the very beginning of the
present administration in Washing
ton there have been few things done
in the spirit of real Americanism.
There have been stiffness, evasion
and dodging of ISSUES, and there
have been high sounding words and
elegant diction in plenty. but be-
yond this, little or nothing to appeal
to the imagination or to the he4ts
Of the red blooded Americans who
1ave worldwide sympathies and the
willingness to help all peoples~~in
distress. but who feel that their frs:
duty is to their own country and to
their own countrymen.
Extravaganza, wastefulness and
disregard for the principles of eco
aomics have marked every step of the
way OF the democratic administra-
ton of the nations affairs. The
people are determined to put a stop
to something which is worse than
prodigality. The only way to put
a stop to it is to- put in authority
those who will put a stop to it.
No republican who. has, so to
speak, taken thought of the morrow,
has any doubt as to the outcome on
next Tuesday. Stalwart American
ism always has won and stalwart
Amcricanism is to win again.

PREMIER LLOYD GEORGES
PROPOSITION

ITO make Ireland free agent in
discussing the problems of Ireland
you must break the terror. Stamp
out murder, suppress revolution, and
restore freedom to Ireland. Then
face our problem. We must have
double courage. The first is courage
to suppress and the other is even
greater courage, that is courage to
conciliate."
Have they not tried to STAMP out
murder"-by murder?
Have they not tried to suppress
revolution except when Carson, the
leading anti Irish Ulsterite, headed it
brazenly in 1914?
Have they not tried to "break the
terror" of killing a few "Black and
Tan police, by shooting down inno-
cent persons and burning the homes
Of others?
Restore freedom to Ireland ?"
When did Ireland have such thing
as freedom for a real Irishman-for
anybody in Ireland except the white
livered sycophants of the British gov
eminent in unfortunate Ireland?
Does Lloyd George think that he
can kill and burn in Ireland by sheer
force of numbers until Old Erin shall
have been bled white-and then "con-
ciliate" those who may be left?
Well, he can't do it-and he is a
fool to try it.
