Notwithstanding; his promise to
not be a candidate for a second con
secutive term as governor, many of
Governor Morehead'a enthusiastic
admirers are urging bim to be a
candidate for re-election. They
claim that hla administration has
been so successful and given such
satisfaction to the people of Nebras
ka that he ought to consent to serve
them another two yearn in the. ca
pacity of chief executive.
The following special dispatch to
the Omaha World-Herald from its
Lincoln correspondent, under date
of Feb. 15, Indicates how strong is
the pressure that la being brought
to bear upon the governor to Induce
fclm to again be a candidate for the
.office which he has filled so well for
Wore than a year past:
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 16 Nearly
half a hundred visitors to the state
executive offices during the past ten
days men from all sections of the
Btata, and who hear 'all manner of
assertions with regard to public
questions and public men have call
ed on Governor Morehead and in
sisted that he become a candidate
for renominatlon In the democratic
gubernatorial primaries.
The demand arises because of two
things the fact that the governor's
administration has been ao success
f ul and the further fact that it is be
lieved that from a political stand
point his candidacy can be made
the most advantageous to all candi
dates on the state ticket, to all legis
lative and congressional candidates
and to every candidate tor county
office In the state. With him at the
head of the ticket, It Is believed by
these men that democracy can read
ily triumph without him much may
be lost.
The character of expression of the
men from out in the state la such
that no man can misinterpret them.
In the opinion of the governor's
friends. They are sincere and show
that the men are anxious to see the
best course followed by their party
' tor the state's good. The following
trio of Interviews Indicates the trend
of all:
County Attorney Vail of Seward
count aays:
"Governor Moreheud should man
Ifeatly make .another race for the
governorship. Ills administration
has been so successful and so many
cood business moves have resulted
that we should give him another two
years in which to further show us
what ha can do. Inasmuch aa every
utep he makes appears to save the
axpayors big sums of money I do
not think that any man would have
:my serious objection to his remain
ng. lie la our hired man, looking
it It from one angle, and though ne
aid that he would stay with us only
i couple, of years, I think that no
no would be unwilling to aee him
remain for at least another two
ears. No business men would think
f letting a superlatively good hired
Man go after two years of labor If
' a could get him again, even though
iat hired man might have said tba
ith the employer's sanction be
o'uld leave after two years bad
; asaed. As far as getting over the
utter of the campaign assertion is
. incerned, I think that a frank
wal on the part of the governor
i the effect that be had changed bis
uiad. as any good business man
tight do, and that those who voted
r him expecting him to run only
ice, could have the alternative
buklns bim by voting against him
vould be sufficient."

per year In advance
"I am satisfied that the governor
htia made so good that he cannot af
ford, from the standpoint of the par
ty, to leave the office at this time.
Of course, where the party affairs
appear to demand another term for1
him, it would hardly be the thine!8
for him to consult his own personal I
wishes with regard to his political!
future. People of many towns in my
part of the state are hopInK that ho
will make the race again. They
feel that his statement of the cam
paign was subject to change and that
he would not be severely rebuked if.
he stated he would run again."
County Treasurer Hutchlns of
Kit hartlaon county says:
"The governor's home folks are
willing to back him for the congres
sional race, if he wants to go into,
that fray, But we would rather see!'arry

The Herald believes In the princi
ple of direct legislation. Deforethe
adoption of the Initiative and refer
endum amendment to the constitu
tion of Nebraska, this paper strong
ly advocated It. Now that we have
It. we believe In giving the voters of
'he state an opportunity to use It on
questions of general Interest. In
order to Initiate a measure and have
it become a law by direct rote of the
people, or amend the constitution by
the same method, it la necessary to
file a petition with the secretary of
Btate with the required number of
signatures. This petition is neces
sary to having the proposition print
ed on the ballots at the ensuing elec
tion. We do not favor loading the bal
lot with propositions In which only
small part of the people of the
Ma,' are Interested;
but whenever
proposed law Is desired
by a
large percentage of the voters, we
fvor giving the people a chance to
vote on It. whether we vote for or
against it.
The issue of equal suffrage will be
voted on under the Initiative at the
next general election In Xebraskt.
Petitions for the submission of the
question are being circulated and
there is no doubt that a sufficient
number of signatures will be secur
ed. Whether the proposition will

I for otllce, is one of the best posted
! men in the state on political issues.
In view of the Bupport given h'ni by
The Herald for the democratic nom
ination for United States senator,
the following from a recent Issue of
the Lincoln Journal is interesting to
us: ,
"Willis D. Heed of Madison is In
the city attending federal court, be
ing interested in a bank case from
Madison. Mr. Keed reports busi
ness conditions excellent in his coun
ty, with farmers elated over the sit
uation. "Mr. Keed is much interested in
the political situation, but admits
that there are more democrats than
candidates in bis part of the state.
He touches Btate issues lightly in
discussing politics, but comes out
boldly for Wilson and Dryan In nat
ional politics and repeats commend
ations heard of them wherever he
goes. He doesn't know much about
ithe Bryan-Hitchcock, coolness, but Is
certain that Mr. Bryan has grown in
j political strength and popularity, not
j only in his own state but In the na
tion." The Ixmg Pine Journal, one of
north Nebraska's bright newspapers,
contained the following in its Issue
of last week:
This week we received a copy
of The Dally Herald, a newsy
daily published at Alliance, Ne
braska, with John W. Thomas

ily published in western Nebras

many successful laurels for its
publishers.
