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:

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.
