Changes which mean a great deal to tho chancel of Hughes carrying Ne braska are apparent alt along the line, according to Judge A. L. but ton, republican candidate for gover : nor, who was in Lincoln today, and ! railed at rrniihliran headauarters. "The republican ticket will surely be elected from top to bottom, said s the mdee. I' have been especially I pleased with the sentiment in favor ? of taking the state out of democratic I hands and putting it in the hands of S the republicans. 1 he Hughes senti- ? ment is gaining every day and should be sufficient to 'carry him across as j far as Nebraska is concerned, when J election day comes. . I Crowds at Meetings. ' "We have been drawing good crowds in most .of the places where l we have spoken. The voters are be- ! ginning to take more interest in the campaign than was at first apparent, I which in itself is a indicatioo that the i republican ticket is gaining. i ' Poling of trains, according to re j ports coming to the republican state headquarters is continuing to show I a decided Hughes trend. A train from Lincoln to Harvard on the Burlington polled Wednesday, showed Hughes twenty-eight and Wilson twenty-two.

Elgin, Neb, Oct 21. (Special.) Although the highways in Pierce, An telope and Knox counties are made quite impassable because of the snow and rain of the last day or two, the campaign of John L. Kennedy, repub lican candidate for United States senator, and William P. Warner, re publican candidate for congress from the Thifd , district continued yester day without' great change in the itinerary, and they arrived here last night by automobile from the north ern part ot Antelope county accom panied by George N. Seymour, repub lican candidate tor regent ot the Uni versity of Nebraska, and Rollie Huff man of Elgin, who had met them at Brunswick, and held a lively and largely attended political rally in the New Community hall. Mr. Seymour presided and intro duced Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Warner with a very pleasant and instructive speech which was much appreciated by both audience and candidates. Antelope County Stirred. The Oakdale band furnished a must cal program of popular and patriotic selections and added to the gayety of the occasion. The Oakdale band is one of the best -bands in.the state. It was to have accompanied the speak era over the county today, but the bad roads made it impossible for them to do so. Antelope county has, however, been greatly stirred by to day's campaign and a growing inter est in the coming election is notice-, able on all sides. While Mr, Kennedy and Mr. Warner are assured of a freat vote here, it is generally be leved that Judge A. L. Sutton will carry the county by a substantial ma jority and that Mr. Hughes will run especially strong. .' , , County Candidates Travel. Others who have acconmanied Messrs. Kennedy and Warner todav are John H. Recroft, candidate for ! I- -i . I J- . ' r T- ticrx ui tne district court: u. c. Thornton; candidate for county treas urer; Perry H. Peterson. candidate for county clerk; Lewis D, Curtis candidate for countv snoerintendent: Lyle E, Jackson, candidate for county attorney, and S. I. Nies' member of the congressional committee. The day's campaign started in Wausa in the morning when the can didates were conducted about the town by F. E. Anderson and Pi A. Anthony. , Because of trains beinsr snow bound, it was impossible for Mr. Warner' and Mr. Kennedy to make their schedule of towns yester day and Jackson, Ponca, Allen, Dixon. Laurel and Coleridge were .reached only by telephone, although many of the voters have come in to . attend meetings at other points along .the line. From Wausa they were con ducted to Osmond by Arthur Holm quilt, chairman of the Knox countv committee. There a meeting was held at 10 o'clock in the Rogers Drug store building. Colonel Walsh presided. Meeting at Plainview. They were next escorted to Plain view, where an afternoon meeting was held in the opera house. At this meet ins: O. E. Enirler. chairman f the : Pierce county committee, presided. Editors O. C. Miller, W. G. Squires, were a part of the party, from here and at Brunswick another meeting was held out-of-doors. At this meet ing Mrs. Seymour presided. The roads between Plainview and Brunswick were so bad that it was with great difficulty that the campaign party finally got through. At Royal an other out-of-doors meeting was held. Here the party was joined by a large number of Antelope county citizens who conducted the speaker to Elgin. It was impossible to reach Orchard in time to continue with the schedule of the day, but an effort will be made to do so later. Today the campaign continued with a morning meeting at Neligh and other meetings at Oakdale and Tilden, where a party of Norfolk republicans met the candidate and 'conducted them to Norfolk. Stops were made at Meadow Grove 'and Battle Creek and a night meeting was held Madison. All along the line there growing enthusiasm among the re publicans. Hughes stock is rising perceptibly and. the election of Ken nedyv Sutton and Warner seems as sured. , - , More Than Fifty Years ' On His Dakota Homestead Siomr Falls, S. D., Oct. 21. (Spe cial.) W.
