This propoganda that was broad
casted on tho oleventh hour said that
tho Farmers' Union of Lincoln county
had endorsed tho list of candidates

that tho O'Fallons FannornT Union
was not consulted about those candi
dates. Thoy absolutely dony having
had anything to do with this propo

received outsldo of North Platto that
tho small towns and rural commun

do with this Labor commlttoo, for I
rccolvod a majority ot tho votos of my
