Emmett H. Grlbble, the candidate
for member of the constitutional con
vention, is one of Nebraska's most
successful farmers and business men,
well known for his up-to-date ideas
and methods. His farm west of Da
kota City Is equipped with the most
modern appliances, in tho homo as
well as In tho yards and other build
ings. Mr. Grlbble has alwayB kept
thoroughly posted on all matters per
taining 10 tno aiiairs or tho state,
and in our opinion is admirably qual
ified to represent Dakota and Thurs
ton counties in the convention. Ne
braska being purely an agricultural
state, It Is our opinion that a large
percentage of tho membership of the
constitutional convention should bo
composed of men who are thoroughly
familiar with the problems and needs
of farming and allied industries. Wo
know that Mr, Grlbble is thus equip
ped, and also know him , to be as
shrewd a business man as there is
in the community. Your voto for
him will not bo misplaced.
Everybody Vole J
Owing to tho fact that no primary
election was hold In Dakota county
this year it is feared that many vot
ers will neglect going to tho polls.
It is a fact, however, that ohe of the
most important elections ever held
in tho stato will take placo next
Tuesday, when members of the con
stitutional convention are to bo
elected. These members are to for
mulate amendments to our state
constitution, a work which becomes
necessary on account of changed con
dition slnco the original constitu
tion was drafted in 1875. Tho old
constitution has dono duty for nearly
half a century, but now changes to
lneot present day conditions are ab
solutely necessary. Constitutions aro
laws not easily changed, and' should
any amendments to tho 'present ono
b,e adopted that aro not to tho In
terest of tho people it will bo an al
most hopeless task to get rid of them
for many years.
The selection of a member of this
constitutional convention is not only
a privilege of tho voters, but a, most
sdlemn duty as well, and no votor
Should so far fall In the duty he owes
hitf state by reason of his citizenship
as1 to remain nway from tho polls
next Tuesday when matters of such
lasting importance aro to bo decid
ed. Wo cannot emphasize too strong
ly the Imnortanco of votinir andhonu
(that the full vote of Dakota county
win oe cast next Tuesday.
