JEFFERIS To the Voters of Douglas County: My personal acquaintance with Mr. Jefferis for the past twenty-five years enables me to say as to his law abil ity, there is none to surpass him, and as to his friendship and feeling to my people he has no equal. I have not known of Mr. Jefferis selling lots for one down and one a month, but I do know if he was selling lots he would not refuse to sell to a Colored man. I do not know of one of my people he has ever turned down. He is a man of honor and approachable. I think that Mr. Jefferis is more ca pable than any of his opponents. At this present time we need representa tive men and not race haters. We are fighting the Huns. Yours truly, T. W. WHEELER.

FORMER MAYOR OF LINCOLN Charles W. Bryan CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR—OPPOSES PROFITEERING Pledges unswerving loyalty to President Wilson in winning the war. OLD AGE PENSIONS FOR WAGE WORKERS. I favor state insurance against ' sickness and injury for all wage earners and a plan of old age pensions for dependents. It is to the interest and the welfare of the state that our wage earners be given the same care and protection that other gov ernments are giving. I favor the establishment of inunicipal pubjic markets, mu nicipal slaughter houses, mu nicipal cojil yards and munici pal produce markets, when necessary to keep the cost of living down to a patriotic basis. i lavor municipal ownership of public utilities to protect the people who are compelled to patronize them. I favor the*dev©lopment by the state of water power on our rivers and streams to give the people cheap light, cheap heat, cheap power, and to conserve the fuel supply and transportation of same. I would enforce the state laws against monopoly in restraint of trade and urge the enactment of new legislation necessary to pre vent profiteering. 1 favor the conducting of the state government upon a business basis by cutting out unnecessary appropriations, reduce taxes, abolish unnecessary hoards and commissions. As governor I would appoint no profiteer to office. As governor I would endeavor to promote unity among the people and to co-ordinate their efforts to increase food production, and sup port of all war activities. I refer the people of Nebraska to my record as mayor of Lin coln in destroying monopoly control and reducing the cost of living, as a guarantee of my fidelity to the people’s interests, if nominated, and elected governor of our state, SOME OF THE THINGS ACCOMPLISHED BY MR. CHARLES W. BRYAN WHILE MAYOR OF LINCOLN Led successful fight for commission form of government and thereby enabled Lincoln citizens to buy electric current from mu nicipal light plant, saving in light and power bills about $75,000 annually to the people. Led successful fight against giving gas company fifty-nine year franchise, which also defeated compromise of refund due Lincoln people, saving to public of $100,000. Led fight that defeated the so-called home-rule charter, and pre served the right to the fit yof Lincoln to have municipal ownership of public utilities. Required Lincoln Gas company to reduce price from $1.20 to $1.00 per thousand cubic feet, saving to gas consumers $56,000 annually. Successfully resisted a raise in treet car rates to school children, aving about $3,000 per year. «**»•»«>„. Secured from the express companies of Lincoln an extension of the free delivery zone to include practically the entire city. Established a free municipal employment bureau to assist the 5 laboring classes to find employment. Established a free legal aid department, which settled more than six hundred cases for wage?workers unable to employ an attorney. Extended city park to within walking distance of the laboring people of the city. Many reforms and reorganizations in city government in the interest of efficiency and economy were enacted under the leadership I or upon recommendation of former Mayor Bryan, as the files of Lincoln’s daily newspapers will verify. The Lincoln State Journal commended Mr. Bryan at the close of his term as follows: “He is one of the few mayors the city has ever had who could see what the municipal government ought to be and had the courage to carry out his ideals so far as he could with the machinery at his disposal. The record of things accom plished under somewhat adverse circumstances is impressive enough to hide the blunders. Mr. Bryan deserves something more than the perfunctory thanks of the city upon his retirement from office.” IF YOU FAVOR HIS PROGRAM HELP NOMINATE FOR GOVERNOR CHARLES W.
