JOHN H. MOREHEAD
Nebraska's Business Governor
CanHHnte for Reflection
CAMUDATK roil KK-KLECTIOX
Governor Morehead lias never side-stepped a responsibility nor shirk
ed a duty.
Governor Morehead's re-election will be a favorable answer to Presl- j
dent Wilson's appeal for the aid and counsel of all patriotic and forward-
looking men.
Governor Morehead's stand for 'judicious legislation has SA KI Mil
MORS OK DOLLAHS ANNUALLY to the people of Nebraska.
STATK FIXANCKS
Nebraska has TEN MILLION DOLLARS in its Permanent School Fund. '
Has the best school system in the Union. Owes no public debt. And there
is reason why the State should ever again be in debt. 1
A COMPARISON OF RECORDS j
Let us compare the record of Governor Morehead with that of his
predecessor of two years ago:
TI1KX: The- 15 big eiitil and linritable Suite Institutions ;
were in a run-down, "out-at-the-heel" condition.
NOW: All are in lirst-clasH condition.
THF.N: Practically every State Institution and department was
fnancially embarrassed. All tlie funds appropriated bad tM-en
fMMit and heavy debts-were being incurred.
NOW: All these old debts have been paid, each building is in j
an excellent state of repair, ami the expenses of oteration are be
ing reduced. No debts. No detieiencis. A clean record.
The legislature of 1913 was obliged to make rather heavy appropria
Nmi for the state penal and charitable institutions, not only to cover de
fiMiMMles incurred by the preceding administration, but also to purchase ad
eMftoaal land, to erect additional buildings, and to repair those already In
The tables following show in concise form the cost of maintenance
' the Aldrich administration, 24 months, and the cost for maintaining
sme institutions during the first 17 months of Governor Morehead's
ALDRICH REPUBLICAN
f etaj amount appropriated by the 1911 session of the legisla
ture for salaries of officers, employees' wages, and main
tenance; including also the amounts appropriated by the
113 Bession to cover deficiencies incurred during the
N-ennlum beginning April 1. 1911 $1,7:2,H11.00
Last appropriations unexpended and lapsed ll,ftlO.M2

Amount actually used JJ
hHsteUng this amount by 24, the number of months in the bi-
anium, gives an average monthly expenditure for all
institutions, under the Aldrich Republican administra
te $71,707.08
si14ing the monthly expenditure for all institutions, $71.
77.08. by the number of inmates, 3,808, gives a month
ly cost for maintaining each inmate $18.8:1
MOREHEAD DEMOCRAT
Teas amount expended by the Board of Commissioners of
State Institutions during the 17 months which have elaps
ed, for the same institutions included above 91,155,488.00
rrMing this amount by 17, the number of months during
which this amount was expended, gives an average month
ly expenditure under this board, the sum of $07,009.88
IMTkaing this amount by the actual number of inmates, 4,023,
gives a monthly cost for maintaining each Inmate $16.80
SAVINGS
Sartag in cost per inmate per month $1.04
wring in cost of caring for 4,023 inmates per month 7,804.62
Saving in cost of caring for 4.023 inmates for 17 months. . . . 182,678.54
Twtal saving for 24 months under Governor Morehead's ad
ministration will be about 187,310.88
Certainly this showing, compiled from the official records -at the Cap
ital aad correct in every detail, ought to forever silence the cry of extrava-
dlrected toward Governor Morehead by his opponents. Ana let it De
bered that this saving has gone hand in hand with better service, for
Mm taMates are better fed, better clothed, better Housed better carea ror
ta every way than they have ever been before.
A CLEAN MAN AND A CLEAN KKCXHtU
overnor Morehead Is essentially a man of action, yet without resort
U kit fuss and feathers and the little dramatic tricks which give Borne men
Mm appearance of greater activity than they actually possess. He is a qui
t, earnest man, giving every duty immediate and painstaking attention. He
la met hasty in action, yet never procastinates. To quote the words of one
mt Savernor Morehead's Republican admirers and there are many of
'He takes plenty of time studying each proposition as it is presented,
la nearly every instance his decision is the right one."
overnor Morehead s record as public omciai ana private citizen is, to
a homely expression, "as clean as a hound's tooth." Neither he nor
ate friends have ever claimed for him any remarkable powers as an orator;
asvd yat. because of his intense earnestness and his manifest sincerity, there
are few campaign sepakers more effctlve than he 1b on the stump.
ASKS SUPltMlT ON HASIS OF MEIUT ONLY
overnor Morehead's appeal for support at the polls is made purely on
ais record as Nebraska's Business Governor. He has no egg-throwing mar
tor4em to relate; he has no get-rlch-qutck bond schemes to exploit; but he
aa am enviable record as Governor, which every thoughtful voter will con
sider when he comes to mark his ballot on November Third. Let us hear
hie ewn words in this matter:
WHAT GOVF.KNOIl MOKEHKAD HIMSELF SAYS
"Let me assure you, Mr. Voter, that it is not my intention to beg of you
te vete for me. Let this question be settled on the basis of merit, just as
every question must be settled when settled right. Consider my adminis
trates and compare my fitness, after these two years' trial, with that of
any ether man for whom you are asked to vote. If you hire a man to
werk for you and he makes good, you do not "fire" him, in order that you
saay employ an untried man, do you? It is just the same with the State's
business I believe you feel that I have made good as Governor, and upon
that basis I expect to be re-elected."

Today or Tomorrow po to the. Lowry and Henry Oarage and see the new Studebaker
models FOUR and SIX. Two types of each five passenger SIX and seven passenger SIX.
FOUR Touring Car and FOUR Roadster.
You will find them competing with cars that sell at prices $500 higher; and you will also find
them showing higher quality throughout. Studebaker prices are lower because these cars
are manufactured in Studebaker plants, carry but one profit, and impose no middleman's
tax on the buyer.
Hut don't consider them solely on price. If you ask why they are better why they give and
always have given throough satisfaction consider the aims, ideals and honest purpose be
hind them; the quality of Studebaker materials and that each and every important and vital
particular these cars welcome comparison with the highest priced.
Consider all of these things ask your friend or neighbor who has driven
a Studebaker all summer and then come in and select the model that is
best suited to vour individual needs. Remember, this is the 1915 model
and yoO can still get several weeks good driving before the close of the
automobile season.

"MenV heart wait upon u;
men'a lives hang In the balance;
men's hopes call upon to to say
what we will do. Who shall live
up to the great trutt? Who dares

men, all patriotic, all forward
looking men to my side. God
helping me, I will not fail them,
if they will but counsel and sus

Wilson.
To the Voters of Nebraska:
With a sontm of peace and good
will toward men, we view the close ot
our Btafo and congressional campaign,
knowing that the inherent honesty and
jiatriotlHhi of the people of Nebraska
will Impel them to vote right Dur
ing the entire campaign we have re
frained from Indulging in mud-sling-Ing
and thoBe vitriolic and pyrotechnl
displays which at times in the past
have marked and marred the cam
paigns of all parties.
Campaigners of the old school, ac
customed to the froth and fury and
fireworks of former days, have de
plored the quietness of the present
campaign, and have culled it dead;
but those who have kept up with the
progress of things poliUcal and ec
nomlc In recent years, see beneath the
quiet surface a fixed and unalterable
purpose to support the splendid ad
ministrations of Pretsidcut Wilson and
Governor Morphend.
A bit of homely but helpful philoso
phy admonishes us that it is "never
wise to swap horses in the middle of
a stream." This Is -by no means the
same aa the republican advice to
"stand pat" and to "let well enough
alone," which Is simply a modern way
of saying what the legion of devils
told Jesus In the country of the
Uadarenes, as reported In the eighth
chapter of Si. Luke. 1
The greater portion of the world is
today engaged In a war bo stupen
dous that, up to the present time it.
has no specific name to distinguish It
from other wars. Yet the United
States, guided by the master mind of
President Wilson and his cabinet, is
at peace with all tLe world. Ills pol
icy of watchful waiting averted war
with Mexico; his masterly manage-,
meut of affairs international has kept
us free from bocomiug involved in the ,
presuc world war. Isn't it the part
of patriotism for every American citi
sen to give the aid and counsel ba
asks for? (
And how can the average man, un
connected with the public service,
"couusul and sustain" President Wil
son? Manifestly by helping to elect
the candidates of the democratic
party, of which President Wilson is
the head, always provided that these
candidates are themselves worthy of
election. If perchance an unfit man
by accident has received a democratic
nomination, and is not oue of the
"honest. patriotic, forward looking
men" which Present Wtluon sum
mons to his side, then such a man de
serves defeat. It is un act of patriot
ism to defeat him.
It Is with a feeling of gratitude that
we present, as managers of the demo
cratic campaign, such men as Con
Ifressmen MaKOire. Lobeck and Ste
phens for re-election; such men as
Rhodes. Shallenberger and Taylor to
represent the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth
congressional districts; and such men
as Governor Morehead and bis fellow
state candidates to All the state of
fices. Not a man ot these has ever
been tried and found wanting; all ot
them have filled with credit to them
selves public positions, and all o(
them are held in high esteem in their
respective neighborhoods which,
after all, is the supreme test.
We have no word of condemnation
lor the candidates ot other parties op
posing the democratic party; but they
are seeking political preferment at a
time when, through no personal faults
of their own, they are destined to de
feat The United States is face to
face with a grave situation. It can be
met successfully under the national
leadership of President Wilson, and
the state leadership of Governor
Morehead, by electing six democratic
congressmen and the entire demo
cratic state ticket. And we rest oui
case, and leave it in the hands ot a
Jury composed of the patriotic elector:
of Nebraska, supremely confident
that a light verdict will be rendered
on November Srd.
