By Romaine Saunders

Does “Uncle George” read the

word that he becomes a candidate
against his better judgment?

open a store and filling station.

Monday. Elliot is planning on

Victor Howarth has called a re
publican caucus for Swan Wednes
day, the 30th, at the polling place.

it unanimous this time there ought
to be a good turn out at the caucus.
Mr. and Mrs. John Nelson, of
Boleus, Nebr., and Mr. and Mrs.
Dethlefs of Fairwell, Nebr., were

day last. Mr. Dethlefs has a quart
er of hay land here and will have
the stacks baled and hauled to

Popular fancy still clings to Buf
falo Bill as the west’s greatest. A
big ranch down at North Platte is
the principal monument to his
memory. Nebraska had others—
not so sure but they were right
here in Holt county—who did more
to develop the great plains; but
then, hero worship centers 'upon
one, not many.
Things are not what they used to
be clown at the lake. The lake it
self has just about faded to a frog
puddle, rendering it no longer an
attraction for tourists. The old i
dance hall has been moved to Bur
well where it goes into service as
a sale barn. Cabins are deserted
and the store_ closed. Drouth has
an effect other than on the strug
gling corn fields.
It cloth appear an interogation
point was fancied ffom what ap
peared in an item or two in the
last puff of Breezes as to whether
the compiler of these highly im
portant and edifying paragraphs
was on short rations or full feed.
The obvious may also be ambig
uous. Responsible for a few days
for what was served at the festal
board, don’t get an idea there was
any shortage.

tertained the Women’s Club of this

Saunders Thursday last. Not all
members of the club were able to
attend though eight automobile
loads, members and guests, were

served. The theme of the after
noon study was child training. This

summer season and proved an in
teresting and profitable gathering.

Mr. Simmons further dee-lured
diat relief for our unemployeel, re
ief for our farmers, while neces
sary, is not the end of a govern
ment program. The objective
should be to so restore the econ
omic conditions of the country that
need for relief will be reduced to
i minimum. “The opinion is cur
rent thruout the country that those
>vho are receiving relief from the
government are not concerned with
the maintenance of the nation’s
-redit. May I suggest to you that
hose people in America who have
no other present source of liveli
hood than the relief funds of the
government should take the side of
those of us who insist upon main
taining the nation’s credit, for if
that credit ever fails, there will be
no further source of funds for re
lief, pensions, or assistance.’’
“There are two issues in the
campanign; one, economic, the
other, a change in our form of gov
eminent. No person and no polit
ical party has a monopoly upon the
humanitarian desires of the Amer
ican people. We all want America
to prosper. We all want jobs for
people who want to work at ade
quate wages. W’e all want busi
ness to recover. W’e all want the
country to go ahead. The question
is one of methods by which that is
to be done.”
“I am unalterably opposed to
changing the fundamental struc
ture of our American system of
government. That issue we shall
neither evade nor compromise.”
NORRIS
We think that Senator Norris
shows himself in rather a shabby
way if he permits himself to be
used as a tool to eviscerate the
primary system of which he him
self is so ardent an advocate. It
would not be surprising if a great
many Nebraskans were to be found,
sharing that opinion. If Mr. Nor
ris desired to remain in the senate,
with democratic support, he should
have presented himself as a prim
ary candidate. If he meant to run
as an independent, he should have
so announced. To have proceeded
in the regular order would, not be
open to criticism. But the way
the game is being played doesn't
appeal to the sense of good sports
manship. It casts a suspicion on
good faith. Nebraska voters are
free, untrammeled and independ
ent. They do not relish having
men, even great men, play horse
with them and their institutions.—
