Two Republican Candidates Make
Addressee at Tecnraaen..
TECCMSEII, Neb., Oct. 21. (Special.)
Inclement weather prevented a very large
audience gathering at the court house In
this city Thursday to hear the political
addresses of Grant Q. Martin of Fremont,
deputy attorney general and the republican
candidate for attorney general, and Wil
liam Hayward of Nebraska City, republi
can candidate for member of congress. L.
A. Varner of Sterling, republican candi
date for state senator from the Second
district (Nemaha and Johnson counties),
presided. Mr. Martin reviewed the work
of the office of the attorney general And
commented at length upon the ' splendid
work of the republican legislature of 1907,
giving as Ids opinion that that body waa
one of the greatest that ever assembled
for A like work in the United States. Mr.
Martin dwelt briefly upon national affairs
and exploited the splendid record of the
republican party. He spoke of the. con
gress and hoped that Mr. Hayward would
be elected. The state ticket was reviewed.
Mr. Hayward told how the democracy of
the east and south would close Its eyes
to a few scattering democratic congress
men from the west and northwest, the in
terests of that faction being so much dif
ferent from those of the last named sec
tions. The congressmen, corning from en
tirely different sections of the country,
have a diversity of interests to look out
for. The interests of the east And of the
south Are entirely different from those of
the east and northwest, and in case of a
democratic congress, which the speaker
did not anticipate, democratic representa
tives from this section would simply be
figureheads In the lower bouse of our
great national lawmaking body. Mr. Hay
ward did not forget to Impress the audi:
enoe with the great Importance of return
ing Elmer J. Bu.-kett to the United States
senate. (

Greater activity on the part of the police
In preventing the Illicit sale of liquor and
in closing up places where gambling is
carried on in the city will probably follow
a meeting of the Kite And Police board
yesterday morning.
Orders were issued to the chief of po
lice to be more strict Is seeing that the
laws were obeyed. The action by the board
has followed agitation of the question by
business men who want a clean city. Some
of the strongest protests have been made
by saloonkeepers, who contrast their posi
tion in trying to obey the law and having
to pay a high license with that of the
bootlegger, who can sell when and how
he likes. In the last three months nine
bootleggers have been arrested and fined
by Judge Cailanan, but in practically
every case there has been an appeal to the
district court
