TUESDAY SEPT. 29, 1914,
The week following Roosevelt's visit
to Lincoln does not develop nny hole
In tho Nebraska political sea. Evi
dently tlio republicans of Nebraska
liavo arrived at the wlso conclusion
that feeding the democratic party
through factional differences Is a fool
ish proqduro.
Editor Fumes, of tho Maxwell Tele
post, in tho last issue of his paper,
denies the persistent rumors that he
has withdrawn as an npplicant for tho
reglstorship of tin North Platte land
olllco. Tho parties responsible for
theso rumors are probably those who
do not look with favor upon Mr.
Eamos' .candidacy.
Evon If success of woman's sulfrage
In Nebraska docs result in denying to
us the privilege of buying a glass of
beor whon wo are thirsty, wo feel con
strained to cast a vote favorable to
giving tho girls a right to voto. Our
admirntlon for woman Is even greater
than our thirst for beer.

At tho battle of Gettysburg during
the civil war tho death rate was G5.G
per 1,000 men engaged. In tho present
engagement between the Germans nnd
tho allies the number of men Is placed
at 3,000,000. If tho Gettysburg douth
rato prevailed, tho number killed
would be colossal. But evidently the
death rato Is much less; tho fighting
Is principally at long range whllo nt
Gettysburg It was almost a hand-to-hnnd
engagement.

Candidates say it Is almost Impos
sible to got the voters interested in
politics; In fact if tho subject is not
broached by the candidate tho avorago
votor remains mum. Twenty years ago
when oven a county campaign was on
you could count n score of men argu
ing politics on tho street corners any
hour of tho day and any day of tho
week. Now you can stand on tho
streets for a straight hour and not
hear a man mako a political chirp.
Our young friend Ilrownllcld can
hardly afford to waste much time on a
wild goose chaso for tho olllco of sher
iff. With a less formidable opponent
than Art Salisbury Mr. Brownlleld
might havo a fighting chanco, but with
Salisbury in the best of trim, tho out
como of tho race has already been
marked up. Tho real purposo of put
ting up ' Mr. Brnwnllold, as well as
Whito for trensuror and Larson for
clerk, was to maintain tho democratic
organization in the county rather than
tho hop,o of success.
Whllo at Brady last week a demo
crat of that village whispered in our
ear that Colonel Bcatty is no longer
tho democratic controller In tho east
part of tho county. This was cprtnlnly
some news, as wo wcro of tho opinion
that thoro was no ono In Lincoln coun
ty tiulto big enough to dispossess tho
Colonol of hlB tltlo of "WIio'b Who"
and in fact wo are a llttlo skeptical as
to whether tho Colonel has roally been
dispossessed.
Tho filibustering tactics of tho re
publicans In tho United States senato
resulted in decreasing tho river nnd
harbor appropriation bill in the sum of
thirty-three million dollars. Porhaps
If those same republican senators will
do a little more filibustering it will
not bo necessary to levy the "war
tax" in order to keep tho government
alloat financially. When you think
about It, a "war tax" at a timo when
tho country is at peace, is a peculiar
proceeding; It almost looks as though
tho democratic party was deficient In
ability to properly manage tho affairs
of state.
If thoro Is any decidod opposition to
tho ro-olectlon of Commissioner
Sprlngor it is slow in developing. As
a matter of fact tho people of Lincoln
county regard Mr. Springer ns a
mighty good commissioner; a careful,
conscientious mombor of tho board.
Ho has dovoloped Into "a watchdog
of tho treasury," inasmuch that ho de
mands that tho county shall rcolvo
a fair and honost measure of labor
or material for tho'inonoy 1t-pys nut.
If bills are cxhorliitant they must be
corrected before allowed, If work Is
not up to tho standard he wants to
know why. The Inclination on tho part
of some to "stick it to the county," is
oxtromely unpopular with Mr. Spring
er. Whan the olty council decrood that
Ayater consumers bo placed on tho mo
tor system and pay for the water thoy
used, about half of the propurty own
i'W sent up a most pitiful wall and
predicted all kinds of dire results
lawns would bo neglected, gardens
discontinued and the water cost would
bo so high that tho people wouldn't
havo enough money loft to buy bread.
llavo tho predictions como true? Well
we hare noticed that lawns have look
ed as protty as ever, wo have never
soen morp productive gnrdons, and aa
to the cost of service,-compare our
meter bills of the past six mouths with
the flat rato you had boen paying how
much grontor tho cost?

Something About Rates
As a public service corporation we are servants of
the public and as sii'ch should discharge our duties
efficiently.
To give the most efficient service, the construction,
equipment and operation of this Company must
conform to the best known practices.
To meet these requirements, the Company must
charge such rates as-will meet necessary operating
expenses, provide adequate reserves for replacing
worn-out or obsolete plant, and give a return on the
money actually invented in the business that shall
be reasonable and sufficient to invite new capital as
required for expansion.
Should any earnings be made over and above
those necessary to meet these requirements, we feel
the amount should be used for the benefit of the pub
lic to further increase theefficiency and reliability of
tho service.
