At ttio very tci of the bl o.TV-Ial
ballot this fnll wi.l bo found a refer
ptuitnn proposition upon which every

record a "yes" vote. Lat,e eri;)lo.ers

Upoli this the Democratic alate pint-
.orm says: "We recognize the right
lo tubmlt the Workmen's Compensa
tion law under the referendum, and If
aid submission results In the defeat
ef the pending measure, we pledge a
LHuiocratlc legislature to the enact
ment of a law meeting the Just de
mands or labor."
Owing to the, peculiar wording of
our constitutional provision governing
me submission or legislative acts un
der the referendum, It will be ncces
sary for every friend of the measure
to do Lis utmost In behalf of the
measure. Many thousands of voters
have no direct Interest In the law, In
asmuch as It does not affect farmers.
householders, or employers of fewer
than five work people, nor the em.
ployees of such persons. Hut it does
directly affect both employer and em
ployees in the larger factories, shops
and other places where many work
people are employed.
Stripped of all legal verbiage, the
Workmen s Compensation law pro
vides for a sure and swift method of
settlement of all personal Injury cases
between employer and employee, with
out the aid of a lawyer. Any man
who has ever had a lawsuit knows
that only the lawyers are sure winners.
The client Is always loser, no mutter
how Tar the case goes, If the matter
In controversy Is less than several
thousand dollars. And in personal In
Jury eases, the Injured person has
either died or 1b beyond the need of
help long before the courts and the
lawyers get through with his ease.
Tbe Workmen's Compensation law
will do away with all this red tape
nil long delay and yet It does not
deprive any man of his right to In
dulge in tedious and foolish lawsuits
If he prefers. Any workman affected
by the law has a right to "elect" or
choose whether he will abide by the
compensation law, or whether he will
work under the old law. The new law
takes away no rights, but adds a very
desirable method of settling claims
for personal Injuries received in the
course of employment.

tion laws in operation: Iowa. Kansas.

In one respect this is the most im

the poorest paid). I refer to the
probate of estate. When I was first j
uppoiniea judge, I supposed that I
had a good understanding of Nebr

my mistake. I found that Nebras
ka's Probate law Is about the most
Intricate of that of any of the states;
but after Working at it tor two terms
I now believe that I understand Pro
bate, as well, if not better, than any
man in the county. This is the one
thing of vital importance which has
to be handled by the County Judge,
and it is important that the County
Judge understand these matters.
If you. Mr. Voter, think me the
proper man for the position, I shall
be glad to receive your support at
the coming election.

JOHN E. MILLER.
"Mr. Miller hardly needs an intro
duction to the people of Nebraska,"
says T. A. Browne. In the October
University Journal, regarding one of
the Democratic candidates for regent
f the university.
"For more than a quarter of a cen
tury," continues Mr. Browne, "bis has
been an intensely active career In the
state. He started with little and now
beads one of the largest and moat suc
cessful stores In tbe traus-Mlssourl re
gion. "lie has been more than a business
man. He has played an important
and unceasing part In tbe develop
ment of his city and his state. In
spite of the rexponslbilt'es of a grow
ing business he hus been able to de
vote much time to other work, phll
anthroplc and civic. Whether it has
been cnarituble enterprises, social or
Civic betterment, or some plan for t ho
good of Nebraska, the call has never
been In vain to him. He has de
veloped the rare faculty of giving a
great deal of attention to a number
of outside matters at one time :;d
yet not seriously neglect his private
affairs.
"Perhaps the lenvt of the monn
meiits which Mr. Miller has rrev-d
by his untiring activity has be:i n '
political record. Meat of his we-'.:
has teen along neii-r nriisHn eivi

Although a new man In the upper
hou-e his ability was recognized and
without competition he was made
chairman of the ways and means coin-
ittee the most important committee
of the legislature.
"lioih his popularity as a Democrat
and his intimate knowledge of the uni
versity and its needs led to the de
tnand that he make the race. . . .
If elected he will give the place the
same vigorous attention that has
marked his career, and will bring to
It a ripe business experience second

be named by the voters."
Lever Agricultural Extension Act.
This law grants federal appropria
tions for farm extension work. and. It
Is confidently believed, will double tbe
productiveness of American farms. It
promises to add more to the general
wealth of America than could be ac
complished by any other means.
Each state Is given an Initial appro
priation of 1 10.000. which is to be
UBed by the state agricultural col
leges. The sum will be Increased
year by year. This measure was
passed by the UNANIMOUS VOTE of
both b'-anchet of congress. It will
rnrry directly to the farm the scien

Into some city or town of Nebraska,
where educational facilities for their
th.ldren are more ready of access,
lience. the number of tenant farmer
is growing year by year, and thehr
ueeds are demanding attention.
The tenant farmer, leasing by tb
year or even for a term of years
cannot w ell afford to build granaries oa
the real estate of his landlord, and
very often the landlord will not him
self supply ihein. Besides, the tenaat
hy the year cannot hold his grain for
a rise in market price and perhaps b
obliged to move It to the next farm W
lenses. In a very large majority of
cases, under present conditions, h
finds it more profitable In the lot
run to sell direct from the thresher.
And yet, with thousands of tenant
farmers doing the same thing at about
tbe same time, it usually happens that
grain prices are at their lowest ebb
right when the tenant farmer to
obliged to uell. This la not at all sur
prising, because the supply offered tor
sale la then the greatest and, other
things being equal, the price will of
necessity be lowest.
