LAYING HENS ABE FEWER (Political Advertising) (Political Advertising) A Sacre "A sacred public trust" aptly defines the duties of your County Judge VtfHEN you answer "the summons of death," the disposition of " all your property comes under the jurisdiction of the County Judge. It is he you must trust to guard and protect the interests and welfare of your loved ones. You have a personal interest in the election of a County Judge who has had actual legal training and experience in the practice of probate law, who is incorruptible, fear less, and yet whose "heart beats in human sympathy," and who will extend every kindness, courtesy and thoughtful consideration to your dependent family when they appear in the County Court to settle your estate, and who will protect their property interests according to law. Upon this basis, I respectfully and earnestly ask for your vote at the coming election. County Judge Cass County CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION ELECTION NOV. 6, 1928. (Now serving First Term) RICHARD L.

(ETT, -4 r r . . , - : x - " ' I- Republican Candidate Sor Congress Don't tie Hoover's hands with a Democratic Congress man. Put a man in Congress who will work as well as "vote." Mr. Burkett has served the District six years in House of Representatives and six years in the United States Senate and always with honor and success. He introduced the original Mothers' Day resolution, was the author of the Postal Savings Bank bill and wrote the Locomotive Boiler Inspection law. He gave every farmer Rural Free Delivery, obtained $250,0000.00 to drain the Indian lands in Richardson county and $250, 000.00 to protect the farmers against the ravages of the Missouri river in other counties, and passed much other educational and agricultural legislation. His election means that the First District will vote "aye" on all pro gressjve and constructive legislation. The Women and Men of Nebraska Should Vote for Governor Alfred E. Smith for President on Nov. 6, 1928. Humane and Sensible, ALFRED E. SMITH has done mora to promote human welfare and social justice in New York than any other man In public life throughout the history of the state. His record of accomplishment In behalf of the sick, the poor and those with physical or mental disabilities and his success In improving the living conditions of the people as a whole mark him as unique among our statesmen for his contribution to social progress. To the service of those who are out of step In the march of life he has brought a warm and sympathetic understanding, aided by keen Intelligence, practical common sense and a passion for facts. J' , i " - '' ' ' '': . - XV" ! V i : I 1 i s I li. Alfred IT. Smith . For Economic Justice To Farmers, GOVERNOR SMITH recognizes the fact that no family or group of families can be truly happy when they can not enjoy the same privileges of life as their neighbors and cannot give their children the same opportunities In life that their neighbor's children have. HE KNOWS FROM THE STATIS TICS COMPILED BY THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE THAT IN 191 THE FARMERS OF THIS COUNTRY RECEIVED 20 PER CENT OF THE TOTAL INCOME OF ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE NATION, AND THAT IN 1927 THE FARMERS' SHARE WAS ONLY 7a PERCENT OF THE TOTAL INCOME, ALTHOUGH THE FARMER8 REPRESENTED ONE-THIRD OF THE TOTAL POPULATION. Governor Smith has pledged himself to correct that injustice and to place the farmers among the happy families of the nation by urging and signing, not discouraging and vetoing, tie legislation which is capable of bringing economic Justice and eguallty to agxlculturs He has promised to sign the bill to be prepared by the representatives of agriculture. He has never broken a promise made the people. Remember that the representative of the forty-nine farm organ izations in the United States have unanimously Indorsed and are supporting Governor Smith . For Public Education. ALFRED E. SMITH is a true friend of public schools. In 1925, ia the stale of New York, he pro cured 19,000,000.00 additional appropriations for rural schools. During his eight years in oSc. he has procured an increase of many millions of dollars ot appropriations for public education. He has placed the country schools of the state on substantially the same basis as the city schools. IV, Opposed To The Saloon - Favors Honest Enforcement. GOVERNOR SMITH has raised a fine family of children. It is therefore not surprising that he said: "When I stated that the saloon is and ought to be a defunct Institution In this country, I meant it. I mean it today. I will never advocate nor approve any law which directly or indirectly, permits the return of the saloon. I shall to the very limit exeoute the pledge of our platform to make an hon est endeavor to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment and all laws enacted pursuant thereto. THE CORRUPTION IN ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITIES 1 WILL RUTHLESSLY 8TAMP OUT, Such con ditions can not and will not exls under, any; administration presided over by me." V, Progressive, GOVERNOR SMITH has made statements on all Issues that are clear and not open to double con struction. He has the support of the progressives of the country. Senator Norrls has endorsed his position on the Important questions ot agriculture and power. His candor and directness have brought him the support of all forward-looking voters of this country, irrespective, of past political aHillationij VI, Humble Origin - - A Great Leader. ALFRED E. SMITH was born in humble surroundings. He has neTer lost touch with or failed in sympathy for the poor. . His record as Governor of New York for four terms, his public activity as a member of the legislature of New York, his addresses in the pending campaign and his state papers, prove that he is a great leader. VeTy recently Charles E. Hughes, the former Governor of New York and former Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States and a republican, in speaking of Gov ernor Smith, said: "He Is an expert In government. The title he holds Is the proudest title that any American can hold, because It is a title to the esteem and affection of his fellow citizens.'! A ballot east for Alfred E. Smith for President is a vote for an honest, capable, humane, far-seeing man. Go to the polls and jet honest arsument;--not prejudicorrirule your decision. (Pufcliehed ty AerJcv'Jfsl. League Tf.
