Many a man In Lincoln county has
pausod during the last few days upon
learning that Congressman Klnkald Is
doad. He was hurled yestorday at his
homo In O'Nolll. Many a man In Lin
coln county owos his start to the
hill which hecamo the Klnkald law.
Many a man In Lincoln county has
boon called a Klnkaldcr hocauso he
took advantage of that law to socuro
a homo. Ferhaps thoro was some
fraud In tho carrying out of Its pro
visions Just as there Is In most of the
other good laws which havo boon pass
ed. Tho good that was dono western
Nohraska through tho oporaton of tne
law far overcame any harm and It
.'was of tremendous Importanco In set
tling up this western country and
getting tho land out of tho Hands ot
tho government and Into tho hands
of tho cltlzons. That ono law has writ
ten his namo largo in tho history of
this country and ho will novor bo forgotten.
Voting nt the primary Is a prlvl
ledgo; In order to prevent Illegal- and
fraudulent, voting tho law requires
that each mrtn- nnd woman living In
North Platte shall register before
voting. It Is a now law but It
Is .to he enforced. Ono man says hp
would Hko to soo them keep him from
voting, reglstor or not. Ho says he
has voted ovory eloctlon for twonty
years. This man doos not roallzo that
North Platto has grown to bo a city
of about 11,000 people and that elec
tion frauds aro posslblp which would
nof havo boon thought of twonty years
ago and that tho law Is a safeguard
to his voto as well as tho vbto of
every ono olso. If ho doos not register
and comes up to tho primary It will
bo his own fault If ho is refused the
prlvlledgo. Ho still has a chance to
register and unless ho takes that
chanco ho can only blnmo himself
if ho is denied the privilege

mlslon, deceased in tho County Court!
of Lincoln County, Nebraska.
Tho State of Nebraska, ss. Creditors
of said ostalo will tako notice that;
tho tlmo limited for presentation and t
filing of claims against said Estate is for free men anci Christians, resting on enlightenment and justice, the
makers and administrators of the law must be true to the ideals ot
their constituency not mere self-seekers and time-servers, nor shifty
demagogues and professional politicians, but carefully chosen men who
will honestly discharge their public trusteeship and make satisfactory
accounting of their public and official acts. An emergency has
arisen in the Sixth Congressional District of this state where a succes
sor must be chosen for a congressman who has given a full generation
of faithful service, and republican voters who have the selecting of t a
candidate are looking several men over from which their choice will
soon be made. There are four candidates. Of this number the fellow
citizens of Bruno O. Hostetler have insisted that he become their candi
date. In short, they have "drafted" him, and are supporting him ,'as a
candidate for this office. No man irrpublic life in Nebraska has a
more honorable record than Judge Sostetler. He has been tried by all
the tests of citizenship and official service for thirty years; as a citizen
his life is above reproach; as an official, as mayor and judge of the
courts, his course has shown ability, fitness, integrity, firmness of pur
pose, and a sense of justice to suit every occasion and fit every circum
stance. Judge Hostetler' s "home friends" present his name for
consideration by the voters of the Sixth District with the full conviction
that his selection now and election later will be one sure step in the dU
rection of good government and the" attainment of their highest ideals.

are getting tired of politics, and wo
believe that If the Judge gets elect

GENEROUS AND

Judge B. O, Hostetler of Kearney
was in Gothenburg last Saturday,
and met with a generous and happy
reception. Ho is In the congres
sional race in tho "big sixth" dis

faithfully served tho people of this
district for twenty or moro years.

and ability qualjfy him for the

BOTH SATISFACTION
AND CONFIDENCE.
Tho people ot this community,
nearly all of whom are personally
acquainted with Judge Hostetler,
will bo highly elated over tho fore
going announcement, and tl is tho
general opinion that they will show
their appreciation by rallying to
his support at the polls July 18.
Of tho numerous would-be succes
sors to Congressman Klnkald, Judgo
B. O. Hostotler appears to bo tho
only ono who is fitted by experi
ence and ability to tako up tho

Following the announcement of,
the Kearney man's entry In tho
race, it was stated that ho had been
drafted by his friends and fellow;

logical "man of the hour." Judge
Hostetler was born on a farm near
Janesvillc, Iowa, in 1861, and in
1887 camo to Kearney and engaged
In the practice of law. He wa3
elected mayor of Kearney for two
terms, and In 1904 he became judge
of the twelfth judicial district of
Nebraska comprising tho counties
of Buffalo, Custer, Logan and Sher
man. He has 'been district Judgo
for eighteen years, and has mado a
most enviable record.
Judge Hostetler is well qualified
for tho office ho seeks, and in the
event of his nomination and elec
tion will doubtless com as near
filling Mr. KInkald's shoes as any
man that could be picked from this
congressional ticket. Shelton Clipper.

tho city of Kearney, before ho was

of no man in tho district that will

Question of Eligibility Is Entirely Without Warrant.
Hostetler Is Eligible.
A movement Is on foot In some
quarters to discredit tho candidacy
of Judgo Hostotler for congress by
assorting that ho la not a qualified
candidato for tho offlco, bocauso ho
Is holding tho offlco ot district Judgo.
To support tho assertion, referonco
is mado to Section 1139 of tho Re
vised Statutes of Nebraska, which
provides that no Judgo of tho district
com, of this state shall bo eligible as
a candidato for any other office, ex-
copt a Judicial offlco, during tho tlmo
ho Is occupying tho offlco.
Tho moaning and offoct of this
statuto was considered boforo Judge
Hostotlor becamo a candidate, and
has boon considered by parties in
torostod in other congressional dis
tricts. It will bo romombered that
Judgo Harry Dungan, of Hastings,
was n candidato for congress in the
Fifth Congressional district on the
democratic ticket . when this same
statuto was in force. Ho and his
frlonds then concluded that thla stat
uto was no bar to his candidacy for
congress, and It has been said by
good authority that this provision ot
our statute rotors only to other stato
offices and can not refer to fodoVal
offices.
Tho constitution of tho United
States fixes tho qualifications ot
mombers of congress. Thoy must be
2G years of ago, seven years a oltl
zen of tho United States, and an in
habitant of tho state in which ho
shall bo chosen. ' All tho authorities
hold that it la not competent for any
state to add to or in any manner
chango tho qualifications for a fed
eral offlco as prescribed by the con
stitution or the laws of tho United
States. Watson op tho Constitution,

power to decide theso questions.

of Stato Canvassers, 36 Wis. 505.
Directly to tho point Is tho case of
tho Stato vs. Howell, 175 Pacific Re
porter, 569, whoro tho supremo court
of Washington docldod tho precise
point, undor a statuto almost exactly
Hko aur own, and different only in
being moro drastic.
If tho Nebraska Btatuto could be
construed as requiring an additional
qualification, that is, that ho bo not
a Judgo of tho supreme, district or
county court, in order to become a
candidato for congress, then tho Btat
uto would bo void as in contravention
of tho Constitution ot tho United
States under all tho decisions ot tho
courts.
Tho suggestion that Judgo Hos
tetler is not qualified to bo a can
didato for this offico arises out of
tho ambition of tho frlonds of his
opponents to defeat him for tho nom
ination. No one ought to bo mlslod
by this false alarm. Tho fact that
tho opponents of Judgo Hostnfi
obliged to resort to such tactics to
support ineir own candidato, ought to
stimulate his friends to still greater
activity, in his behalf.

B. O. Hostetler. Kmrnov .tk ..
Dear Judgo: Answering your lotter
of soveral days ago will say that I
haco no Intention of resigning from
tho bench myself. Frank Howoll, J.
P. Breon, Louis ToPool and several
other lawyers of first rank quality
havo told mo that in their opinion
district Judges who aro running for
federal offices aro not in any manner
controlled by tho sections of our
statuto, and I am inclined to that
view. Judgo Dungan, of Hastings,
whom you know very well, ran two
years ago without resigning, for tho
samo offlco that you and I aro seek
ing, and undoubtedly ho looked tho
matter up quito thoroughly boforo ho
concluded on that course. Tho World
Herald and tho entlro democratic
press supported Judgo Dungan without
calling on him to rosign, and as far
as I know no republican nawspapor or
anyono of any political relation eug
guosted that ho resign. I thought ot
all theso things before I decided unon
my our course.
With kindest regards.
