WOMEN FOR

Neighbors of Congressional
Candidate Among His
Staunch Boosters
To the Voters of the First Con
i:rssional Pisfrict of Nebraska:
We. tin following named women,
liavf 1 c n n-dghbors of ami pt-rsou-allv
aeeiuainud with Ex-(?overnor
John H. Morehead and his family
for iiior" than a third of a century.
We know 1-. i tii a? a successful busi
nss man e-nga;-,. d in many different
lines of business, making every un
dertaking a success. No family in
liichardson county is more admired
than the Morehead family.
.Mr. Morehead has helped more de
srviii!r people than any other person
in the county. He has always given to
d serving enterprises, such as church
es. Red fross. V. M. C. A. and Y. W.
('. A. He stands for the highest
things in morals and last hour re
ports emulated for campaign pur
jiosf should tie disregarded, as they
will tie by the p-oplo of Richardson
county who best know him.
The wonu-n voters of the First Con
gressional District need have no hesi
tancy in siving .Mr. Morehead their
whole-hearted support, as he is too
loyal a citizen to vote contrary to his
positive statement and the wishes of
t lie majority of the people of Ne
braska. We who sign this statement are
som.' of the earliest and most per
sistent workers in the W. C. T. U.
cause and we appeal to the women
voters of the elistrbt to give no heed
to the cliap ward politicians, who
forsret their loyalty to their govern
ing nt and adopt methods to defeat a
candidate.
Mr. Mor.-hcad's statement that he
will he g verned by the present li
quor laws of Nebraska and will vote
to strensthen the Volstead law rath
er than w.nken it. will be adhered
to by him. If the people are not sat
isfied with the present status of the
liquor laws of Nebraska they can
change the same by referendum vote,
and that is the only method, if they
make a change.

The Legislative Ticket
Senator Andrew F. Sturm has represented
Otoe and Cass counties ably in the legislature.
He is not a blusterer, a spell-binder, nor a "Big
I" statesman. He is closely identified with
business and agriculture in his district, has
shown rare intelligence in handling legislation
entrusted to his care and deserves re-election.
Mr. Sturm is a firm believer in modern trans
portation and the road program of Nebraska
will not be crippled if he is re-elected. The
Press is proud to support a man of such high
caliber ability as the Nehawka legislator. It
knows, too, that its opinion is voiced by the
thousands of men and women in the district
who believe in quiet performance of duty
rather thin blustery and inane promises. Ne

BELIEVES IN ECONOMY
William H.sTohIman. democratic
candidate for county commissioner
in the second district, is making his
campaign in an ernest and thought
ful effort to give the taxpayers of the
county the fullest value for their
money expended in the conduct of
the affairs of the county.
One of the features of the plan of
Mr.- Stohlman to give the people
greater service for their expendi
tures, is that of having the county
do all of its culvert and bridge work
wherever possible and the trials of
this plan made in various localities
have proven that the stand taken
four years ago by Mr. Stohlman is
right in every way.
To show the forcefulness of the
argument of Mr. Stohlman the tax
pavers can look at the work in Salt
Creek precinct. Here there was need
for a large concrete culvert and the
estimate made for its construction
was $1,400 and which sum seemed
too large to Commissioner Oorder
and he had the work contracted for
bv the countv the men being hired
and material bought and paid for by
the county, and the result was that
the culvert cost $700 and thereby
raved the county half of the expense
it would have been to otherwise.
This is the policy that Mr. Stohl
man advocates seeing that every
possible saving is made in public
works and the result of which will
be that a greater efficiency can be
secured for the taxpayers.
Mr. Stohlman has been a resident
of Cass county for fifty-nine years
and has been a heavy taxpayer and
knows the value of saving that can
be made to the taxpayers anil is
making this his platform: "A full
100 cents value for every dollar ex
pended." and the voters can depend
that this policy will be strictly car
ried out if they vote for Mr. Stohl
man at the election on November
7th. and if elected Mr. Stohlman
will fill the office of commissioner
with honor to himself and to every
taxpayer in Cass county.
Violation of Liquor Law the Main
Offense, With Burglary Second
According to Report.
The office of the attorney general
of Nebraska has requested of the
different counties a report as to the
number of criminal cases filed in the
four year period from 1919 to date
and which shows from the figures
compiled in the ofiice of County At
torney Cole that the county has made
an excellent showing as to the law
abiding quality of its citizenship.
In the period named were 2-Ht in
formations and complaints filed and
of these there wore 2:10 convictions,
the tines and forfeitures amounting
to $17.29.5.
Of the crimes on which complaints
were based the violation of the li
quor law seems the most numerous
there being 137 of these cases, but
these seem on the decrease as they
have dwindled from 74 in 1 f 1 f to
Hi this year. The next crime that
has any considerable showing is that
of burglary, there being 1!) com
plaints on this charge and on petty
larceny 14, while lor assault and bat
tery there wen seventeen complaints.
Among other crimes for which
charges wire tiled there were the
following: Auto stealing, four; car
rying concealed weapons, nine:
speeding, six: one culprit had the
hardihood to committ bigamy; three
were indicted for gambling: aban
donment of wife and child, five:
adulttry, three: contributing to de
linquency of minor, four; forgery,
two; operating motor vehicles with
out license, five.
Prom this it can be seen that the
county is not such a bad place as far
as keeping the law is concerned or
at least in cases that have come to
the attention of the county authorities.
