Allen HIS CREED If olected to Congress he pledges that ho will work strenuously To make our Government jnoro tru ly of, for and by tho peoplo. To reduce taxes. To secure proper reduction In frolght and passenger rates, by. fore Ing tho railroads to accept fair and reasonable profits upon true values only. j To provent public service corpor ations from taking from tho people oxhorbitant profits and largo earnings on millions of watered Btock. To obtain for tho farmer, stock ralsor and laborer, fair prices for their products and to prevent the loss of such largo amounts between the producer and tho consumer. To dovelopo arid and Beml-arld lands of Western Nebraska by govern ment irrigation projocts. To secure a soldier bonus, not by a tax upon the already overtaxed people, but out of the foreign debt, the Interest on which will largely pay tho samo, and also bylevylng upon tho millions collected by war profit eers, if any way can bo found to get hold of the samo. To raise the bonus by taxation would require tho soldier to pay taxes to pay his own bonus. To secure and amendment to the Constitution of tho United States, pre venting Its Supreme Court from dp To stop' the increase of power at Washington and restore to tho States much of the power that has been taken from them In recent years. claring a law unconstitutional, except upon a vote of two thirds of Its mem bors. At tho present time by a 5 to 4 vote' this court overturned a law passed by almost 400 congressmen, 90 senators and tho President of the United StateB. By such a method this Coutt has killed tho Child Labor Law and tho law preventing gambling on stock oxchanges. We, as Americans, take pride in tho idea that we beliovo. and prrte l;e giving square deal. Wo aro fairly truo to this 'ideal excopt after wo havo elected a man to offico. Think it over and note the fact that you havo helped elect ninny good men to office, but only h few that you did not go back on after having elected them. We allow our wrath such unlimited sway in these crit icisms that many of our best men refuse to enter politics. In fact, tho man who offers to servo tho people in these days should have the hide of a rhinoccrous, nnji tho feelings of a stuffed toad. Other wise he will be hurt. By allowing ourselves this fun of pernicious criticism we discour se the courageous man who is honestly doing his duty, we mako a crook f tho morally weak but courageous man, and cover tho deeds cf tho crooked man by our smoke barrage of hearsay exaggera tions, and lies based on ignorance of conditions and of circumstances. In coming to tho polls next Tues day, let us be true to our Ameri can ideal of fair play. If we know a candidate is incompetent, because of moral, intellectual, or mental defects, discard him and persuade others to do the same. If we know nothing of him, it would bo fair to say nothing about him. If wo knowvhim well and of our own knowledge, know of no questionable inefficient or crooked acts, would it not be exercising good sense on our part to conclude that he is the same man, as before he regist ered at the primaries? If our closo friends of their own knowledge know nothing unfavorable concer- ig him, we have additionl assurance that. he is still worthy of our trust. Then, if those who are boosting an opposing candidate, or have a petty personal grievance, or who have criticism based on the whisp erings of tho wind on a cloudy night come to us with suspicions, heresays and unconfirmed reports, is it wise to give their chatter much serious consideration? We would dislike to spread evil reports, more especially if untrue, of any one, and most surely if we had trusted that one as an acquaintance or friend. There nev er have been more difficult times for the office holder. The. men who handle our, finance hear the constant cry of "Less Taxes". The men who enforce tho law are meet ing conditions when the lawbreak ers use brains as well as bullets. The history of Jessy James, and narratives of Kentucky moonshiners are duplicated in every newspaper that publishes news. The fact that a man has, worked for us faithfully and effeciently for one year or for ten years is not the reason that wo should fire him. As long as he is the best man we can hire for" the job we shall retain him if we can. With us this applies to public as well as private business. Likewise, in private or in public business, if a man is not making good, it is exercising good judgement to re place him by a better man, But in all this -as American cit izens living in the best county in the best state of the greatest na tion that has yet existed, let us give the other fellow a squar,e deal, and sec that tho spirit of fair play rather than the habit of fault finding and knocking rule our act K.

He has ar rested 30 persons chnrged with tho manufacture of "hootch. Among those persons arrested were some very prominent people of Lincoln county, which shows that Mr. Salis bury is no rcspector of person when it comes to doing his official duty. The Telegraph considers Mr. Sal isbury one of the best sheriffs in the state of Nebraska.
