NAT KNOW The man who call attention to the actions of others and en deavors to besmirch the character of others in order to divert at tention from his own actions is not uncommon. But the man who endeavors to attack the patriotism of another in order to hide his own lack of patriotism, is in our opinion and in the opinion of all good citiierm we believe, the one who deserves the censure of the public. The man who calls another "yellow" because that other man, with perfectly good reasons, asks the district board for a decision on the classification given him by the local board, and who himself, on the quiet pulls every string and.puts forth every effort to avoid military service himself, is the man who win suffer from public opinion. Recently the Box Butte county draft board re-classified the mar ried men without children, placing eighty-two of them in Class 1 A, Seven of these men, including the editor of The Herald, appealed to the district board at Omaha for a decision on the matter. Among those who did not appeal was Bull S. Sallows, editor of The Alliance Times, who immediately proceeded to lambast the seven who had ap pealed through the columns of his orange tinted sheet, at the same time endeavoring to give the impression that he was just "aching" to go to the training camp and that he would get there by the first train if possible. The editor of The Herald is a candidate for re-election to the of fice of state representative at the general elation to be held on Nov ember 5th. He would have been entitled to a classification in class five had he claimed exemption on this ground, which he refused to do, writing plainly on his questionable that he desired no exemption on the ground of being a state officer. He has a clean, progressive record as a member of the legislature and believes that he is entitled to re-election. For that reason he desired to remain at home until after election. He has no desire to shirk military duty or to lay claim to th patriotism of his five brothers, four of whom are now in the army and the other one of whom will go with the contingent next week to Gamp Kearney. In order to show where he stands on the subject he published a signed article in The Herald on October 10, pledging him self, if given deferred classification, to voluntarily enlist at the close of the legislative session. Bull Sallows, in endeavoring to stir up feeling against the seven men who filed appeals to the district board, evidently thought that his carefully laid plans for deferment of his call would slip through unnoticed, but his past record in the county is too well known and it was predicted ten days ago or longer that he would at the last minute endeavor to slip out. Here is his laughable and pitiful ' ' explanation, ' ' printed in the Tuesday issue of the Alliance Times : 'The County ChnirmMii, acting on printed instruction from Secretary M. l.. i behalf of th.. Liberty Iamui, bus filed an order against tailing lien J. Sallows, until the present loan campaign U closed. Preliminary plan bad been made and a miccchnoi' named to lake charge of The Time, when UiIh order was filed over the personal request of the registrant to be Inducted for this call." In his column of "innuendo," run under the head of "peep sights" the editor of The Times, in the same issue had the following squib: turn miviv wuj iaj umeuuuir oiw, ior new coat of camouflage must be provided. The Herald has plenty of additional evidence whioh it will use in future issues to show the act ions of Bull J. and his ' ' Hindenburg Line ' ' in not only this case but in others. The editor of The Herald may be on his way to the training camp before the next issue of this paper reaches our readers. The notice of ' 1 embarkment" has been made out and signed by the local draft board and is now awaiting the decision of the district board. If the latter board says go at this time we will go and gladly. Should we be re elected to the office which we have filled to the best of our ability during the past two years, we will, if in this country when the legis lature convenes, endeavor to secure a furlough to attend the same. Members of the legislature were given furloughs to attend the session this spring and it will undoubtedly be done again. In the meantime we would suggest to the editor of The Times that no one is "sitting on his tail" and he can, if ho is as patriotic and an xious to go to the front as he would have us believe, take voluntary induction at any time, as he could have done during the past year or longer.

When the Chiropractor, by scientific adjustment removes the prestttre from the nerves and helps Nature to restore Health, Ihe operation seems a simple one. Yet the knowledge is one that is pained only after a great deal of investigation, for Chiropractic is just as much a science and a profession that lias to be learned as any other Health-method. KNOWLEDGE OF SPINE AND NERVES The Chiropractor must intimately know the body. He must know what nerves feed every organ and just where these nerves branch out from the spine, so that, he can place his finger right on the point of pressure that is causing trouble in a certain part of the body. Because of this expert, knowledge of why he adjusts, where and how to do it, the Chiropractor can by examining the spine, tell what is the trouble without a patient telling him any thing. The spine is the key. Spinal pressure on a certain nerve leads to weakness and disease in a certain organ. That's why the Chiropractor adjusts a certain part of the spine to re lieve headaches and another part of the Rpinc for stomach or abdominal troubles, etc. In HIRQ iffEs7? JJLT'JHi no dmg or knife are used. If you are not as well as you should be, have your spine adjusted and Ihe cause of your troubles removed, so Nature can mak- you strong and healthv again.

It s common knowledge that it would be con sidered unpatriotic and a hindrance to the sale of Liberty Loan bonds to sell other securities during the campaign for the sale of bonds. Several potash companies, recently organised, have deferred the plac ing on the market of their authorised stock issues until after the close of the Liberty Loan campaign. And the excuse offered by the Times editor for his failure to go with the other boys in the next call is "The Fourth Liberty Loan." The Herald now has, in its possession, an original signed letter, written by the Times editor under date of October 7th, to the secre tary of a western Nebraska potash company one of those mentioned above. Herald readers will note that October 7th was near the start of the present Liberty Loan campaign. Under date of Friday, Octo ber 11th, The Times issued a special "potash" edition. The letter, mentioned above, was written with reference to this edition and ex plains itself. It reads as follows : r TH ft AlAAANVK MJMI U II Kit TIM US 4 Alliance, Nebraska Ortober. 7th, 1918. Mr. lear Sir: The big Potash Issue of The Allium Times will be pub lished Friday of this week.

Be it said to the credit of the potash man that his patriotism was above his desire for the sale of stock and he did not take the writ its request of the editor of The Times to place his stock before the mMic at the time when the public was being asked to subscribe to the fourth Liberty Loan. We fail to see where this attitude on the part f the editor of The Times helped the sale of fourth Liberty Bonds jsd we fail to understand why it is a legitimate excuse for his evasion f military service at this time. We presume that the Y. M. C. A. will next need the service of our riead Bull, causing another thirty days delay in his departure for the VOTE FOR KEITH NEVILLE NEBRASKA'S WAR GOVERNOR BECAUSE 1. Every pledge made to the people has been fully and faithfully redeemed. 2. He has given whole hearted support to the Federal Covernnient,-and his experience is an asset in the prosecu tion of the war. 3. He haa made it possible for Nebraska's heroic sons in the service to exercise the right of franchise, and has protected their property rights in their absence from the State. 4. He will exert every effort to protect the people of N brasfta from organized profiteering. C. lla has vigorously opposed all things calculated to embarrass the Government In the proseeutfoii or the war H. iiiM administration has been !an, honest and businessiike, tree from graft, favoritism and ostentation. 7. The General Fund levy lor 19 IS haw been reduced to three mills, and the amount raised in taxes for the Gen eral Fund, will be the least raised in thirty years. 8. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were saved to the farmers through the embargo placed upon seed corn in 1917. The price per bushel in Nebraska ranged from $3.00 to $5.00, while in Iowa and surrounding states, the prices reaped by seed speculators ranged from $5.00 to $12.00. 9. He appointed a committee of prominent stock feeders to confer with the Federal Food Administration, and a market for heavy beef cattle was created, averting disaster to the stock feeding industry of Nebraska. 10. The State Hail Insurance law has been adminis tered in an efficient and businesslike manner, and all losses sustained by policy holders during the past season will be paid in full. No other State selling hail insurance has ever paid 100 per cent of its losses. 11. The Seed Analysis Branch of the Pure Food De partment has, during Governor Neville's administration, made more than 5,000 seed tests, without cost to the fann ers of Nebraska. 12. Being advised that there was a shortage of hog cholera serum and virus, and that Nebraska hog raisers were experiencing difficulty In securing prompt delivery ot' the product, Governor Neville recommended to the Regents Of the State University, that the state serum plant be re opened. The Regent! acted favorably upon the Governor's recommendationj and immediately directed the reopening of the plant. 13. Prohibition has been energetically enforced throughout the State. There have been 4,527 prosecutions and tines have been assessed aggregating $125,000.00. 14. He was born and reared In Nebraska, and under stands the needs of the people. 15. It is unwise to change horses in the middle of a stream. Nebraska has excelled all other states in many phases of war work endeavor. The re-election of Nebraska's war governor will mean a continuation of effective co-operation in this work.
