IttA L. MlLTONHERGEH. The enpitn distribution of automobiles in Nebraska is one for every forty-five persons, and this state is only equalled by South Dakota, whore the distribu tion is the same. This distribution holds good in North Platte, the number of enrs exceeding one hundred. From July 1, 15)11, to July 1, 1912, tho manu facturers of this country produced 252,GQ9 cars of all classes. Tho average price of each car was $1,089.30. The republican party wreckers, more familiarly known as tho bull moosers, held a meeting in Kearney Saturday and nominated P. L. Armstrong, of Elm Creek, as candidato for congress in opposition to Congressman Kinkaid While this is not likely to result in the defeat of Judge Kinkaid, it is evi dence that tho only purpose of the so called progressives is to divide the voto and elect the democratic nominee, for no sane man believes that Armstrong stands a ghost of a show of election. Maine and Colorado. . Charles F. Scott, of the republican headqunrters at Chicago,in a letter to the press, snys in part: "As Maine goes, so gocB tho Union." If the old ndage holds good this year, tho election in November will bo a sweeping republican victory. For there is no doubt that Maine has gone republican. The ntato which gave James G. Blaine, Thomas Ii. Reed, Nelson Dingley and other great repub lican lenders to the nation has returned to the republican column. The victory was both decisive and significant. Two years ago Maine elected a democratic govornor by a plurnlity of nearly 9,000. This year, with the govcrnocsoeking re-election, Maine elected a republican governor by a plurnlity of between 3,000 and 4,000. This, too, despite of tie fact that the third termers obeyed instructions and voted for the democratic ticket in order to defeat the republican candidate, if possible, nnd thus give Mr. Roosevelt an opportunity to do some more shouting. Second only to the significance of the Maine returns is tho result of the Colo rado primary, where the regular re publicans show a long lead over the followers of the "Hull Moose." It may be rcmombcrod that when Colorado sent a solid delegation for Taft to the national convention last spring, Colonel Roosevelt cried out with a loud voico that tho state hnd been stolen from him by machine methods nnd that a state wide primary would havo shown un en tirely different result. Tho state-wide primary has now been held and tho re sult is the snmc. It is perfectly ap parent thnt the Centennial state is not yet ready to throw the republican party into the discard.
