Chauncey Keyes has made a good
and efficient county assessor. He ia
one of the pioneer residents of the
county and has given general sat
isfaction in the conduct of his office.
The republicans of the county, as
well as the state, present a splendid
list of candidates for the approval
of the electors at the coming elec
tion. They are all pledged to an
economical administration of the
affairs of the county and state. You
will make no mistake in voting the
republican ticket.
Only a few days more then the
battle of the ballots begins. Some
will be happy and others will be
disappointed. Be sure and go to
the polls and express your choice
among the candidates for the sev
eral offices. If you do this you
will be performing your duty as an
American citizen.
Esther Cole Harris has served
the people of the county for one
term in the office of register of
deeds. She has made a good, fuith
fol and efficient official and is en
titled to another term, and from
reports that we hear the people will
give her title to another term in
office at the ballot box next Tues
day.
Bob Simmons is making votes
every' day for himself and the bal
ance of the republican ticket. His
clear cut statements on the issues
confronting the people of this state
and nation, is winning many to his
support and it now looks as if Bob
would win the election on next
Tuesday with a substantial maj
ority.
Many election polls taken in the
eastern part of (he state, show
Simmons leading for senator and
Griswold for governor. The tide
has been running strong agaHst

the democratic party during the
past few weeks and from present
indications the republican ticket
will be successful.
From reports that come in from
over the county, L. G. Gillespie is
u sure winner for member of the
legislature. Lloyd has made an ag
ressive campaign and has probably
interviewed more voters this fall
than any other candidate. His can
vass is being successful, too, ac
cording to reports and he is assured
of a splendid vote in all sections of
the county.
The republican candidate for
United States senator for the short
term, Hon. J. H. Kemp, of Fuller
ton, is a splendid citizen of the state
and one well qualified to fill the
highest position within the gift of
the people of Nebraska. The writer
has known the Senator for over 20
years and know him to be one of
the up-standing men of the state,
able, clean and progressive. The
voters of Nebraska would honor
themselves in electing Kemp to the
United States Senate.
Henry Grady has made an active
and agressive campaign for the
office of sheriff of this county and
is meeting with marked success in
this campaign. Practically all the
old timers, who know Henry’s
record while sheriff here years ago,
are nearly all for him, openly and
above board. They also are not
backward in singing his praises to
some of the newer arrivals who
were not familiar with his record.
It is such support as this that has
made him a formidable candidate
for the position, with the odds fav
oring his election.
The democrats realize they have
a hard fight on their hands if they
retain their representation in the
Third congressional district. Sev
eral democrats of promnence in the
councils of the party have come
into the state and are delivering
speeches for Congressman Howard.
! But the importation of southern
congressmen into this district will
not change the minds of the voters
of the district. They have decided
I they are going to elect Karl Stefan
| aa congressman, and all the demo
cratic congressmen in the nation
will not get them to change their
minds. They know Karl and know
that he can be trusted to safeguard
their interests in the capitol city
and that he will he a congressman,
1 not a yes man.
“If ability and strict attention
to business and the conduct of their
offices, means anything to the peo
ple of the county, there are two
county officers that are sure to be
elected," remarked a prominent
Holt county farmer the other day.
"Julius D. Cronin has made the
best county attorney we ever had,
and has saved the people more
money in the conduct of his office
than any two former officials hold
ing the same position. He has the
ability to successfully cope with
any lawyer in the state, and is
recognized as one of the brightest
young attorneys of the state. Then
there is Ira H. Moss, who is clerk
of the district court. He has been
an efficient and capable officer, pay
ing strict attention to the duties of
his office, without fear or favor for
friend or foe. There should be no
question about his election, if the
people want capable and efficient
serive from their officers. Some
people may have some personal
reason for the choice of some other
candidate, but the people generally
recognize ability and service and
will prove their faith in these two
officials at the polls next Tuesday."
The republican candidates for
supervisors are able and competent
men and deserving the support of
taxpayers who have their own wel

fare at heart. Their election will
mean a change in the control of the
county board and one that would
be beneficial to all taxpayers. In
the first district J. C. Stein is a can
didate for re-election. He has made
good in the position. He is not a
politician but a practical business
man who has made a success of his
own business and is a heavy tax
payer. He deserves re-election.
In the Third district Chauncey W.
Porter is the republican candidate.
He is not a politician, but is a level
headed young man who has made
good in every position. He pos
sesses qualifications that would
make him a valuable member of
the board. He has no enemies to
punish or friends to reward and
could handle the business of the
office with credit to himself and
with a saving of the txpayers
money. Taxpayers who are mind
ful of their own interest will sup
port Porter. In the Fifth district
Ezra Cooke is the republican candi
date. He is able, qualified, and wfill
do his own thinking. His election
to the position is conceded by many
of the oppostion. He will be a
valuable addition to the county
board. In the Seventh district Ed.
J. Matousek is the republican candi
date. He is a successful farmer
and stockman living near Atkinson,
and possesses the qualifications
necessary for a splendid member
of the board. Many democrats in
that district are supporting him on
account of his qualifications and
there seems to be no question but
what he will .be elected.

The New Deal
Much has been said about the
New Deal and several articles runn
ing in the papers make mention of
the New Deal several times.
It certainly is a new deal for a
president to put us into debt like
I we are now.
Why don’t the democratic party
give the money direct to the unem
ployed that it will take to plant
trees as is proposed from Canada
to Mexico and 100 miles wide, where
the farmers themselves have been
unable to raise trees, in North and
South Dakota.
It will cost several million dollars
to plant these trees, and take care
of them after they are planted;
why not Rive this money direct to

Register Of Deeds Has
Record Of Efficiency
To voters of Holt county:
Having served as your Register of Deeds
for one term, and as a candidate for re
election, I offer the following facts concern
ing my record.
I have had no office help during the four
years, except during the first three months
when I was learning the duties of the office.
During my term, up to Oct. 1,1934, my office
has earned in fees $7,822.45, which is $922.64
more than the total expense for that period
and which amount has been paid to the
county treasurer.
I have a family of five children fiom 5 to
14 years of age, and the salary of my office
is our only source of income. I have tried
always to give you courteous and efficient
service and, if after due consideration you
feel that I am deserving of a second term,
I earnestly ask your support in the coming
election.
ESTHER COLE HARRIS,
Republican Candidate for
Register of Deeds.
the needy ?
All the money used for the pur
pose of planting these trees must
be borrowed by the government
and interest paid on it.
So why not give the money it
takes to plant these trees direct to
the people that are out of work, so
they can purchase groceries and
clothing with it; it will not be
wasted that wray.
No one tells us that the New Deal
is financed on borrowed money.
If the democratic party favors
the tree planting program and the
spending of millions of dollars that
way, instead of giving it to the
needy and unemployed, so they can
buy groceries and clothing for the
winter, then why should anyone
vote the democratic ticket?
