Honeland wrIto from tho oast that ho wont to Baltimore to hoar cnndldato Hughoa dolivcr a Bpocoh, and that tho audience of ton thousand woro very enthusiastic. Mr, Hoagland was . inclined to hollovo 'that Hughoa couldn't warm 'om up, but tho Daltl mOro mooting changod his vlows. In Ills spooch Friday aftornoon Sen ator Hitchcock lauded Prosldont Wil son for "koplng us out of war." Thoro nro a good many people who think thai If tho Senator's dear (?) frlond W. J. liryan, tho secretary of state, had loft Prosldent Wilson carry out his noronal platiB, wo would have had actuul war with Germany, But of course tho Senator would rathor give Wilson the credit than Uryan. Tho Koarnoy Huh truthfully says: "No mattor how much tho balanco of trade may havo been bwoIIch in our favor by the European war, nor how, groutly certain branches of Industry havo prospered 'by. reason thereof, Mo fact remains thut nearly ovory man, woman and child in tho United Status is paying tromondudus toll in tho advanced cost of nearly all com modities." When wo finally balanco tho books It Is questionable If wo find that thj "war prosperity" has really Mrs.' Halllgan, of North Platte, is In town ttoday doing a little campaign work in favor. of hor son for tho of fice of county attorney. A few weoks ago In a letter to tho votors of Lin coln county Captain Ilalllgan, who is with tho troops on tho Moxlcan bor dqr, oxprcsspd tho hope that ho might bo homo boforo oloctlon time and moot tho pooplo personally but this seems now to bo vory improbable, but wo think that nnyono who Is absent from homo.
