Every pledge made to the people haa been fully and faithfully redeemed. 2. He has given whole hearted support to the Federal Government, and his experience is an asset in the prose etir tlon of the war. 3. He has made it possible for Nebraska's heroic sons in the service to exercise the right of franchise, and hiv protected their property rights in their absence from tho State. 4. He will exert every effort to protect the people of Nebraska from organized profiteering. 5. He has vigorously opposed all things calculated to embarrass the Government in the prosecution of the war. 6. His administration has been clean, honest and businesslike, free from graft, favoritism and ostentation. 7. The General Fund levy for 191S has been reduced to three mills, and the amount raised in taxes for the Gen oral Fund, will be the least raised in thirty years. 8. Hundreds' of thousands of dollars were saved to the farmers through the embargo placed upon seed corn in 1917. The pYice per bushel in Nebraska ranged from $3.00 to .$5.00, while in Iowa and surrounding states, the prices reaped by seed speculators ranged from $5.00 to $12.00. 9. He appointed a committee of prominent stock feeders to confer with the Federal Food Administration, and a market for heavy beef cattle was created, averting disaster to the stock feeding industry of Nebraska. 10. The State Hail Insurance law has been adminis tered in an efliclent and businesslike manner, and all losses sustained by policy holders during the past season will be paid in full. No other State selling hail insurance has ever paid 100 per cent of its losses. 11. The Seed Analysis Branch of the Pure Food De partment has, during Governor Neville's administration, made more than 5,000 seed tests, without cost to the farm ers of Nebraska. 12. Being advised that there was a shortage of hog cholera serum and virus, and that Nebraska hog raisers were experiencing difficulty in securing promjt delivery of the product, Governor Neville recommended to the Regents of the State University, that the state serum plant bo re opened.
