Phone 4 Frank Wallace, Prop'r. The Democratic State Convention at Grand Island endorsed the adminis tration of Oovornor Shallenberger In the following words: "We approve and endorse the ad ministration of Aahton C. 8hallen berger. Hit acta have bean honeet, vrtee and patriotic. We Invite a care ful scrutiny of the executive power vtmMi two yeara ago was committed to our trust m hie selection aa gov- His administration has been of fidelity and devotion to the party pledges upon which we Invited the suffrages of the people." This strong endorsement baa the approbation and approval of 90 per cent of the people of the state, lrre epectlre of politics. His adminlstra Uon as goveVnor has been suoh that republicans have not been able to find anything to censure in it and becaure of this their platform is silent. The democratic state convention of 1909 unanimously endorsed the admin Utr&tlon of Governor Shallenborger. The democratic state convention o! 1910 again unanimously, with the ex ception of Douglas county, endorsed It Practically every democratic county convention In the state en dorsed it unanimously. In the face of these endorsements, tho liquor and other "interests" have forced the gov ernor into a fight for a renomlnation. They are now doing and have done everything possible to harrasB and hu miliate the governor. They have un dertaken to brow-beat and bulldoze felm. The reason for their action la plain: they cannot use him, therefore they attempt to destroy him. What the "Interests" opposing Gov ernor Shallenberger want 1b a license to violate law. At the present time,, they are appealing to men of all po litical parties to vote for Dahlman for governor. A man who had the Im pudence to stand up at a democrntio convention and tell the party of Jef ferson that he would use the veto power to block liquor legislation passed by a majority of the people. These interostii know that Governor Shallenberger is the choice of 96 per cent of the democrats of the state. They know that it. is necessary to get the corrupt vote of the republican party to assist them in the dastardly act of sand-bagging the governor of the state for doing his duty. By this means they hope to thwart and defeat Uie will of the great body of decent democrats of Nebraska. The people of this stato will not permit the liquor interests to run it The democratic party wants to re nominate the best governor Nebraska ever had. They want n man in the governor's ofllco who will not permit the democratic party to he the lick iplttle servant of the liquor and other "Interests." Thoy want a man In that office who will be fair with everyone, but will enforce the laws. They want a man in that office who has respect for the will of the majority. If the liquor Interests nominate their democratic candidate, it wlU, makfr the democratic party the vile and corrupt asset of the liquor inter outs, to be traded with the republican leaders at Omaha- The rank and flls of the uemocratlo party In this state should rise In their might and go to the primary on August 16 and make the majority for Governor Shallenber ger so pronounced that no brewery or other selfish "lntercste" will ever again undertake to dlctato to a demo cratic executive. The democratic ntnte convention has endorsed every act of Governor Shallonbcrger's and in particular the to-called "eight o'clock closing law." The people on August 16 should place their seal of approbation on the en dorsement of the convention. Gover nor Shallenberger, by every rule of fairness, is entitled to a second nom ination, Justice and fair play ha been, and should be, the role In the democratic party. Instead of having to fight for a renomlnation, all good democrats should be holding up his hands. If the rural democracy will do its 4uty, it will demonstrate to this state hat the liquor Interests do not con- rol the democratic party. The question In this primary Is: an Dahlman wlt'i the po!lt.ccl ma- hlnery of the clt jf Cm hi and fHt breworlrn n n the n'l'n ' b- le"1 McCLUER'S Ladies' White and Black Silk Gloves, short lengths, size 6 and 6, at 35c Long Black and White Mousquetaire, $1.25 grade for 75c to close McCLUER'S Washington Letter. UY TAVBNNEU. GOVERNMENT BY MONY It cost Joseph C. Sibly S40.C98.83 to win the Republican nomination for Con gress in the tuent) -eighth district of Pennsylvania. Mt. Sibly received 10,446 votes at the primaries, and each vote represented ao expenditure 'of nearlv $4. As his plurality was only G89 it is fair to say that his nomination was brought about by the sheer power of money. At the primaries in the thirteenth dis trict of Pennsylvania John Dazell spent 19,200, most of whicb was contributed by protected manufactures. The combined expenditures of Sibly and Dalzell in these two districts were nearly $50,000 Their combined salaries as representatives in Congress for two years will be only $30, 000. '1 heir nominations, therefore, cost almost $20,000 more than the emoluments of their office, exclusive of mileage and stationary allowances. Contributions to the party of revision upward is a paying business investment, particularly to the tariff trusts. Men will always pay thousands to politicians or to party funds in the hope oi cettinc back millions. Make the tariff one for revenue only, and you can cut off a leading cause of political dishonesty and corruption. THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN Tne democrats need gain but twenty two seats in the next bouse of representa tives to obtain a numerical majority. The present republican majority is fcrty-tbree. At least eighteen republi cans bold their seats by a margin of less than 1 ,ooo votes. Twenty-nine republican seats in the present bouse of representatives are held by less than 2.000 votes. Every local democratic committee has a heavy responsibility. The character of the nominee in eVery district is supremely important. Democracy can not challenge the enemy with weak or colorless candi dates. The people want absolute assur ance that the men they vote for will stand iour square when the first real test comes in organizing tbe next congress Democratic candidates must stand on an unequivocal platform of real tariff revision. Tbe democratic party, through both national and local organizations, must be prepared to shou'der full responsibility for removing tariff burdens from the peo ple. 'J lie democrats have a real issue to carry them to victory, and can lose only by failure to grasp its significance. Married on "The Table" On Tuesday evening, Ralph E.
