Bare, Editor and Publisher. SUBSCRIPTION KATES. Ono Year by Mail in advance $1.25 Ono Year by Carrier in advance $1.00 Entorod at North Platte, Nebraska, Post olllce as Second Class Matter. FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1912. To n Nebraska friend who urged Senator Brown to come homo before the primaries and make a personal fight for rcnomination he writes: Things are moving very rapidly in the senate now and a record on im portant mnttors is duo to be made any ciav or hour. I believe the wisest course is for me to stay here." How different is this from Senator LaFol lette, who for weeks has boon travel ing over the country campaigning for the presidential nomination. Senator Brown's official life is at stake while Senator LaKollotto is seeking nn office for which he has no hope of securing; and yet Senator Brown considers it his duty to remain at Washington and perform those duties for which ho was elected and for which he draws pay. This little comparison shows up the two men, nnd certainly it is in Senator Brown's favor. It is a little incident that should make us all feel more friendly to honest, hard-working Norn's Brown. Editor Tribune: The primaries nre about here. Who are wo going to vote for? Who are the men that fill the bill? Our country is wonderfully pros perous, wage earners are better paid with shorter hours than ever before, the farmer rides in nutpmobiloc, the stockman gets better prices than ho ever did, and every body has plenty to eat; the boys and girls wear kid shoes and Easter head gdar. Who are the men that have manned the ship of state? First comes President Taft, hon est, able, clean and fearless, has been the captain, nnd in close touch, comes Senator Brown, elected as an original progressive, staying right by his job. loyal to our overy interest, true anu clean. These are tho kind of men that I for one am going to vote for; these doservo our support. XXX LaFollelte Addresses Big Crowd. Senator LnFollette addressed a large audience at tho Keith Tuesday evening nnd held the attention of his auditors for two hours. The Senator had a busy day. He made an address at Kearney atl:30, and had intended coming to North Platte on the local which arrives at seven o'clock. That train was, how over, over two hours late, so he traveled from Kearney to Lexington in nn auto mobile nnd spoke at towns enroute. At Lexington he boarded train No. 17 nnd arrived here at 8:45, and after changing linen he reached the theatre ut nine o'clock. As he ascended to the stage he was liberally applauded, and being introduced by 0. E. Elder, faced an audience of 700 or 800, about one-third of whom were ladies. He took no time in introductory rc mnrks nnd occupied about fifteen minutes in telling ot ins political lortunes in Wis consin nnd what had been accomplished in the way of reform legislation, which carried with it no small amount of self- laudation for Sonntor LaFolletto. He then outlined in full the purposes nnd scope of the initiative and referendum and the recall, declaring himself in favor of tho latter measure and favored its application to the judicinry. He favored the election of senators by a direct vote of the people and the pref erential vote for the choice of presi dent. In fnct he wanted tho popular will of the people to prevail wherever possible. Then he lnunched on to the trust pro position, nnd this formed the main topic ot ms address, and he seemed to tnKe some pleasure in Haying Koosovelt when the opportune time came. When Roosevelt assumed the duties of presi dent, said the Senator, he found 149 trusts, when he vncated the presiden tial chair there were over 1.000: an in timation that Teddy as a trust buster and trust eradicntor had not been a success. His allusions to Taft were light, whom he said wa3 placed in the presidential chair by Roosevelt and the Roosevelt influences. Senntor LaFollette is an intense though rather deliberate" speaker, and he favorably impresses his audience. New York, sole ngents for tho United States.

Hunt, of Ognl alla, returned home Wednesdny after spending severnl days in town. Mr. and Mrs. N. S. Purbaugh late of Wallpce, have moved to the Murrin house on east Fourth streot. Docs LaFolletto intend to lend n new party on to victory should the fatos bo adverse at tho' Chicago con vention? Or was ho only hinting at what may happen to tho old parties who fail to rocognizo tho independent voter, or perhnps the progressive 'voter, when ho replied to the enthusi astic odmiror at tho Hastings meet ing. The admirer asked him to run for president, nomination or no nomina tion. Slowing advancing to the ex treme edge of the platform tho senator slowly and cnrofully said, "Your word may bo tnkon ns a word of warning to tho old political pnrtiea." The cheers which followed led many nn enthusiastic admirer of the littlo sena tor to speculating as to who he meant. Stato Journal. , In the primary election in Illinois Tuesday Roosevelt carried the stato by 115,000 over Taft, and in tho Missouri primary Roosovelt secured tho twenty six delegates to the nntionnl convention. In tho Now York state convention held Wednoodny tho delegates wore not in structed for Tnft, but a platform was adopted urging tho delegates to tho national convention to favor tho nomi tion tif President Tnft. In Illinois Clnrk defeated Wilson, ns a presidental pre ference, by n majority of 140,000. A section has been proposed in tho Ohio constitutional convention pro viding thnt all laws in effect on Decem ber 31, 1912, shall be null and void af ter period of ten years, and thnt nil laws enacted thereafter shall expire at tho end of a ten year period unless sooner ropealcd or reenacted. Tho purpose, it is plain, is to do nway, with dead timber on tho statute books, and whothor the plan will work satis factorily or not there is no doubt thut tho idea starts out on the right track. Will be Built Within Two Years. Announcement was made by the Burlington road Tuesday, or rather by General Passenger Agent Wakeley, thnt its new line from Kearney to Bridgeport will bo completed within two yeurs. This is the rond that for several years past North Platte has been groatly interested, because it is believed that in its building nnd opera tion tins city will Do greatly benehttcd in a commercial way. For its right-of- way and trackage and terminal facil ities, tho Burlington purchased about $100,000 Worth of property in North Plntto several years ago. At that time it was believed that work would begin at once, but for somo reason tho con struction of tho line has been delayed. It is probable that this postponement was due to tlio uncompleted lines in Wyoming which nre partof the through lino which the Plntto valley road will constitute. "Within two years," as per state ment mado by Mr. Wakeley, is not exact or definite; the road may be con structed this year, then ugain perhaps hot until 1913. But tho fact that it is to uo completed witliin two years is mighty gQod newB for North Platte. Float Representative.

A cortnin Omaha candidate for state auditor is using a smooth sort of adver tising dodge to take in tho votors. Ho has circular lotters type-printed in qunntitios, dated ut different places in the Btnto and sent out ns the personal letter of somo local man.
