ChnirmanLindsay The significance
of our victory is that the political senti
ment of Nebraska which exhibited a
decided change last fall is firmly rooted
in republican principles The people
are satisfied with existing conditions and
excellent work on the part of the repub
lican county and jrccinct organizations
in getting out the vote combine to ac-
count for the triumph of the republican
ticket
It is gratifying to notice that in al
most every county in the state we made
a marked gain in county officers
The plurality for Sedgwick Calkins
and Ernst will not fall below that of
McKinley in 1900 and may reach 10000
or more
Charles Q DeFrance chairman of the
populist state central committee said
last evening Congratulations are due
the republicans because of the result in
ithe state We concede the election of
Sedgwick by a plurality anywhere be
tween three and five thousand The
Journals election returns this morning
indicated the result accurately While
we have not returns from a sufficient
number of counties to base an estimate
-upon yet we think the fusion vote will
fall twenty thousand short of the vote
given Judge Holcomb in 1899 when he
ran against Judge Reese We think
Judge Sedgwicks total vote will be about
the same as that given Judge Reese
For an off year Republicans have
fared pretty well I thank you every
where
It seems to be the definite and fixed
determination of the people of Nebraska
to stay redeemed

derful good opportunities to the man or
woman with a little money to invest in
irrigated lands
Excellent irrigated land can be had
now for 12 to 15 an acre but it is plain
to those watching the development of
the North Platte valley that this low
price is just about to fade away
The farmers of this valley are now
reaping an abundant harvest Alfalfa
corn wheat and garden vegetables yield
good profits There are also good open
ings in the live stock business

Platte Valley write for our booklet de
