Not Supporting Stephens
Kriends of Williiim P. Warner, the
republican nominee for congress,
will read the following from the
Tekamah Journal with interest:
"The Journal man the other day
learned an interesting political fact,
and that was that the revolt against
Congressman Dan Stephens is more
pronounced than is the opposition to
the re-election of President Wilson
in this congressional district. Men
who are strong democrats and who
expect to work and vote for Presi
dent Wilson's continuation in office
are open in their antagonism to Con
gressman Stephens. They give as
their reason that as a democrat he
is trying to he all things to all peo
ple; that he seeks republican rather
than democratic support; that he
knows no such thing as political grat
itude and because he is a democrat
he feels democrats should support
him no matter what may have been
his action in congress and out of
congress. This does not set very
well and in every county in the dis
trict there is that class of democrats
who feel that his usefulness to their
party is at an end. This opposition
alone spells defeat for him in No
vember. Mr. Stephens himself will
not deny the facts stated herein.
Ho would like to but he cannot, for
he knows they are true."
Nebraska is going to be one of the
political battle grounds from now
till November 7th, and all signs
point to a sweeping majority for
Hughes and the whole state ticket.
The democrats are going to bring
some of their greatest orators into
this state to explain, or try to ex
plain to the voters, why the present
democratic congress bas appropria
ted many more millions of dollars
in this session than any other con
gress in the history of the country.
Jt will be interesting to have this
explained, but we doubt whether or
not their explanations will be any
more effective than they were in
Maine a few weeks ago.
A. M. Chambers, of Walthill,
Nebr., republican candidate for rep
resentative for this district, was in
town Thursday calling on friends.
Mr. Chambers, in soliciting the sup
port of the voters of this district,
frankly inviten their attention to his
record in the last legislature, during
the winter of 1915, which has been
approved by both republicans and
democrats who followed closely the
record of the session. By occupa
tion he is a farmer who actually
farms, a pioneer of Thurston county
who keeps well posted on living
questions. Always consistently re
publican, he is not offensively par
tisan, and ho enters no entangling
alliances. He believes that a law
maker should bo goyerned by the
wishes of the people and what is best
for the welfare of all.

friends and neighbors who so kindly
assisted us during the burial of our
beloved brother.

It Is apparent that we are
shockingly unprepared. There
Is no room for controversy on
tills point since the object les
son on the Mexican border. All
our uvnllable regular troops
(less, I believe, than 40,000) are
there or In Mexico, and as these
have been defined lnsufilclent
the entire National Guard has
been ordered out; that Is, we
are summoning practically all
our movable military forces In
order to present bandit Incur
sions. In view of the warnings
of the past three years, It is
Inexcusable that we should find
ourselves In this plight. For'
our faithful guardsmen, who
with a fine patriotism responded
to this call and are bearing this
burden, I have nothing .but
praise, nut I think It little
short of absurd that wo .should
be compelled' to call men from
their shops, their factories, their
olllces and their professions for
such a purpose. This, however,
Is not nil. The units of the Na
tional Guard were at peace
strength, which was only -about
one-hnlf the required strength.
It whs necessary to bring in
recruits, for the most part raw
and untrained. Only a small
percentage uf the regiments re
cruited up to war strength will
have had even a year's training
ill the Nntlonal Guard, which at
th'o maximum meuns one hun
dred hours of mllltnry drill, and,
on the average, means much
less. Men fresh from their
peaceful employments and phy
sically unprepnred have been
hurried to the border for actual
service. They were without
proper equipment; without
necessary supplies; suitable
conditions of transportation
Vere not provided. Men with
dependent families were sent;
and conditions which should
have been well known were dis
covered after the event. And
yet the exigency, comparatively
speaking, was not a very grave
one. It Involved nothing that
could not readily have been fore
seen during the past three yeurs
of disturbance, and required
only a modest talent for organ
ization. That this Administra
tion while pursuing Its course
in Mexico should have permitted
such conditions to exist Is al
most Incredible. From Mr.
Hughes' speech of acccptnuce.
