From report of committee ou public
HOUSE
"As to the condition and management
of the Kearney Normal School, we wish
to state that it is the sense of this com
mittee that this institution is the most
ably managed and economically eon
ducted in the statg, and that its super
intendent, Dr. A. O. Thomas, could well

lauds and buildings:
SENATE
"We next visited the State Normal School
at Kearnoy. The new wing to the main build
ing is the best public building from the stand
point of material, workmanship, plans- and
general efficiency of any public buildiug wo
visited in the state. The management and
superintendency of this school is of such a
high order and so much superior to many
other places we visited that we feel it our
duty to compliment the officials iu charge."
See page 047 of Senate Journal, session of
1911.
Indorsed by His Neighbors
"We heartily indorse the candidacy of Dr. A. O. Thomas for state superintendent
of public instruction. In his long residenc e among us we and the people of tho entire
state have come to recognize in him an educator of unusual qualifications, an executor
of high constructive ability, and a gentleman of forco and character. He is such a man,
with his ideals of life, his broad and sane ideas for the training of our youth for real
active service and for true manhood and womanhood, his ability for cutting out waste
and his careful and consoientious use of the ccple's money, as is greatly needed at
this time to administer the affairs of the public schools of Nebraska. We recommend
him to the people of the state for tho good of the schools."

Republican Candidate for Congrats Sacond Olatriet
To the Voters: Omaha, Neb., June 27, 1914.
I have known W. II. Howard for many years. When he was a candi
date for State Auditor, I asked my friend to volt for hlra. because I felt
ure that he would give the same painstaking thought and care to the ser
vice of the public which he applied to his own bumuB. Ilia record speaks
for Itbelf. He has been absolutely fearless in the discharge of his duties,
and has carefully guarded the people's interest. Only a few weeks ago one
of my friends whom I urged to vote for htm. expressed his satisfaction In
the fact that as Auditor the affairs of the office Jiad been so well admin
istered. W. B. is now candidate or Congress, or rather, in the first instance,
for the nomination. If he gels the nomination, he will make a strong
canvas for votes. Well known, reliable and popular, I feel that as a vote
getter be baa few. equals. If elected. I am sure he will give the same time
and thought to national matters as he has given to the affairs of our own
state, and 1 am morally certain that no one will eer regret casting his
vote for him. I hope to see blm nominated and elected.
Kttspectfully, Robert Co ell.

CHARLES W. SEARS
Republican
for
ATTORNEY GENERAL
I am registered:
The attorney general's office
properly administered, is one ot
the most important offices In
the atate.
The attorney general Is legal
adviser to all the officers of the
state, and Is particularly charg
ed with the duty of requiring
all other officers of the atate to
administer lt affairs in a law
ful manner.
, He Is charged with the duty
of handling all litigation for
and on behalf of the atate.
He la a member of the atate
boards of educational lands and
funds: Irrigation, highways
and drainage: canvassers of
elections; and the banking;
insurance; health, and phar
macy boards.
Th offir ha for years been
handed down from principal to
deputy and it is now time to put
some new blood into the office,
I am no rampant reformer,
but I will promlae you that I
will make the attorney gener
al's office a potent factor In the
Administration of Nebraska af
fairs, and, In an orderly, business-like
nd lawful manner
protect the people and property
and conserve the resources and
revenues of the state.
The state does not need more
laws she needs fewer laws
more rigidly enforced.
The state does not need more
revenue she needs less taxes
and trreater economy.
If every official of the state
would handle the business of
his office as carefully, conscien
tiously and economically as he
would handle his own business
the appropriations for state
"Aemriran, white, 43 years of age, 81 years
in Nebraska."
purposes would be cut down to
a minimum.
la casting your vote for the
employment ot an attorney gen
eral remember mat tne aervicea
ot every lawyer in tne state
who has shown any marked
acuity Has at times oen sougnt
by some big business Institu
tion, and bu employment by
such Institution u recognition
of his ability and the strongest
recommendation for him as a
lawyer and bulness adviser.
1 have in the past been em
ployed by some of tha strong
est business institutions of the
state such employment la rec
ognition ot my ability and
suould be tha strongest recom
mendation for me aa a lawyer
and business adviser.
1 am at this time the republi
can member of the Nebraska
atat revenue and taxation
commission, a non-partisan
commission created by the last
legislature to revise the reve
nue laws of the state. Our work
is about completed. Our report
will soon be. printed. It will
point the way for the next leg
islature to make such changes
as will tend to equalize the
tax burden of the state. .
As attorney general I can do
much to complete the work that
has been started by this com
mission, and if elected by the
people for that important of
fice I will give the atate of Ne
braska the best ot my ability
and with a firm and steadfast
purpose strive to make our
great state one of the cleanest
and best governed states in the
union.
Circumstances over which I have
no control have influenced me to
withdraw aa a candidate for mem
ber of the Water board.
I believe tliat my politic, which
were for the best interests of Omaha
and suburbs, would be beat carried
out through the election of Mr. John
W. 1'arlsh for thia office and 1 take
this oHri unity to thank my friends
for tlielr euthusiaam and stanch aup
port in my behalf.
