ELECTION RESULTS DO NOT CHANGE PRINCIPLES OF SOUND GOVERNMENT Republican Party Will Carry On Its Program of Economy and Construction. (By John T. Adams, Chairman Re publican National Committee.) The political off-year always wit nesses a decided reaction from the majorities of a presidential election. With very few exceptions, the Con gress elected in off-years has been of opposite political faith to the admin istration. In view of this, the reten tion of control of Congress by the Re publicans is gratifying. This is especially true in view of the spirit of unrest which prevails throughout the country as an after math of the great war. Such a spirit a'ways visists its dissatisfaction upon ' ' atever party may be in power. At s.,ch times the only thought that ap peals to a great class of people is to .vote for a change” regardless of the issues involved or the records of the contending parties. In addition to this situation, there were issues of real importance in some states which took precedence over na tional issues, and in other places op position to the present administration raised “fake” issues in order to befog the public. The results do not change any of the fundamentally sound principles of eco nomics and government. Neither do they shake -the determination of the Republican party and this administra tion to stand by these principles. To day the Republican party is more than ever the one party of construction and Americanism as against the forces of destruction and internationalism. Reduction of public expenditures and taxes continue to be the dominant is sues in every community as well as in the nation. This Republican admin istration will continue its program of rigid public economy which has already resulted in a slashing of public ex penditures and reduction in public debt and taxes. The party will remain steadfast to those underlying principles of all en during governments. It will continue to support law and order and stand four-square against the vicious and destructive theory of government by class, passion and prejudice. It will continue to stand against the influences of internationalism which would undermine and ultimately de stroy those things w’hich have made America a great and honored nation. It will continue to stand for the pro tection of our industries, our wage earners, our agriculture and our trade, against those forces which would sac rifice them to class or foreign inter ests. Improving agricultural and indus trial conditions fully justify the poli cies of this admintrtration which has had only one purpose—the welfare of all the people. Uuder the leadership , ——nil I % 'Em desir- R round- E re and I $2.00) I elusive, | of President Harding the Republican party will continue with energy and zeal the work of reconstruction which has brought about so remarkable im provement since March, 1921.

Sharp pains dart ed through the small of my back and the kidney secretions were highly colored and unnatural. The last at tack came on after having the mea sels. After taking the first few of Doan’s Kidney Pills I could ^see a change for the better and kept on with them until I had used three boxes which I got at Reardon Bros.’ Drug Store. I was cured of the trouble and my kidneys were put in a strong and healthy condition.” Price 60c, at all dealers.

I HhKMMWtffiHSSgSI 5285 INSPECTIONS PER CAR The faithfulness of performance so universally remarked in Dodge Brothers Motor Cars, is due, in no small part, to the thoroughness with which each unit is inspected during the process of manufacture and assembly. A trained staff of 1100 experts is employed in this work alone, and approximately 5,285 inspections are made on each car. So exacting and rigid are the standards applied to these inspections that the slightest variation, either in workmanship or material, is sufficient cause for immediate rejection. Dodge Brothers are almost over- scrupulous in their constant aim to make each car as sound and perfect as is humanly possible. v ARTHUR G. WYANT < O’NEILL, NEBRASKA
