Tho advanced liberals, whoso aim is

llnmont, do not anticipate much from
tho present Reichstag becauso In tho
days whon feeling ran the highest tho
party lenders would not agree to urgo

Both are Disgusted.
Republicans nnd domocrats alllra,
cannot help being disgusted with tho
lying tholr hidobound party organa
havo dono during tho past campaign.
A paper whoso proprietor olther holds
a fedora Job or Is looking for ono,
cannot bo deponded upon to tell the
unbiased truth nbout politics and
oven somotlmes about otner things.
Why Bhould your report about dally
affairs bo colored to suit tho selfish
Interests or desires of tho man who
happonB to have his money Invested Ia
newspaper machinery? You havo aj
right to havo pure nowB as well as
puro food. And also, why not puro
advertising? Tho paper goos Into thor
home and Is road by your chlldron.
You aro trying to keep tholr minds
clean and would raise a row if you.
found an Immoral or impure book In
tho houso. Why not gunrd what thoy1
read in dally papers ns carefully?!
Tho Lincoln State Journal columns aro
tho best ovldcnco of Its cloanness. A
wholo lot of advertising Is found in.'
other dallies that Is kept out ot the
Lincoln Journal. When you tako tho
Journal you pay only for your own
paper as it has no deadbcats; no bad.
bills. Everybody pays In advance and.
overy paper is stopped when tho time
Is out. It's a co operative plan, ovory
item of waste being eliminated and.
you got tho benefit. Lincoln is your
capital and Tho Journal your paper.
