Republican Ticket
The republicans of the state and
Holt county present a splen
did ticket to the voters at the
coming election. The State Tick
et is headed by Kenneth Wherry,
the republican candidate for
United States senator. He is a
prominent business man of Paw
nee City and has had legislatiye
experience, having represented
his district) in the state senate for
four years. He has the ability
and integrity to make a splendid
"United States senator and we
believe that the people of the
state will elevate him to that
position next Tuesday.
Heading the state ticket is
Governor Dwight Griswold. He
is serving his first term in office:
has made good and is deserving
re-election on his record of the
past two years. The balance of
the state ticket is composed of
good, tried men who are well
qualified me positions to
which tney aspire and they are
worthy of your support.
THE COUNTY TICKET
Republicans present to the vot
ers of the county a splendid coun
ty ticket, made up of men of ex
perience in office and in business
in this county. Taking it from
top to bottom it is the strongest
ticket presented to the voters of
the county for several years.
Walter G. Sire has been nomi
nated by the republicans for the
office of county clerk, one of the
important offices of the county.
Mr. Sire is the present county as
sessor, having been elected to
that position two years ago to fill
a vacancy. He is a suocessful
breeder of pure bred cattle and is
recognized as one of the coming
livestock breeders in this section
of the state. He is well qualified
for the position to which he as
pires and we can assure the
people of the county that he will
make them a capable and efficient
county clerk. Give him your
vote.
Pete Duffy is the nominee of
both parties for the office of
sheriff and for the first time in a
political campaign for a quarter
of a century Pete can sit on the
side lines and watch the other
boys scrap it out.
For the office of county treas
urer the republicans present J. Ed
Hancock,* one of the county’s
native sons. For the past dozen
years he has been an employee in
the office of the county treasurer,
at the present time being chief
clerk under Treasurer Winchell
and is probably the most capable
man for that office that ever has
been a candidate for the position.
Taxpayers and voters of Holt
county will make no mistake in
voting for Mr. Hancock for county
treasurer.
Ira H. Moss is a candidate for
re-election to the office of clerk
of the district court. Mr. Moss is
now serving in the office and is
recognized by attorneys through
out the state as one of the most
capable, efficient and accommo
dating clerks in the state. His
re-election will insure to the
people of the county that this
office will be in Capable hands
during the next four years.
Julius D. Cronin is again the
republican candidate for county
attorney. During his service he
has conducted the office in a man
ner that has reflected credit upon
himself and the people of the
county. By his diligence in
looking after the county’s legal
affairs he has saved the tax
payers of the county thous
ands of dollars.. The people will
see that he retains the position
for another term, for they know
his ability and have confidence
in him.
Esther Cole Harris is unop
posed for the office of register of
deews, a position she has filed
well and capably for several years
and she will reeeive a splendid
vote at the coming election.
L. G. Gillespie is the republi
can nominee for county assessor
and no better man could have
been named for this position. He
has served the citizens of O’Neill
as city assessor for several terms
•and has given good satisfaction.
He is familiar with values‘and;
the people of the county will have J
a number one man in that office'
when they select L. G Gillespie
for the office next Tuesday.
J. C. Stein is again the repub
lican candidate for supervisor'
from the First District, a position
that he has filled with distinction
for several years. Mr. Stein is
a former chairman of the board
and has alweys been very active
in looking after the interests and
welfare of the people of his dis
trict as well as the entire county.
From reports reaching us from
that section there seems to be no
question but what Mr. Stein will
be re-elected again next Tuesday.
He deserves it on his record.
R. E. Calvert is the republican
nominee for supervisor from the
Third District. Mr. Calvert is a
businese man of this city and. has
the qualifications to make a
splendid member of the county
board and will look after the in
terest of the taxpayers of the dis
trict and county. '
H. W Hubbard is the republi
can nominee for supervisor from
the Fifth District. Mr. Hubbard
is one of the pioneer settlers of
the Chambers country and from
what we hear from that section
of the county he will be a member
of the county board after the first
of the year
In the Seventh District Chair
man Matousek has the fieid all i
to himself. Democrats realized
they could not beat him, so de
cided to let him coast in once.
All these candidates are worthy
citizens and are deserving of your
support, if you want good govern
ment, without any expensive
fancy frills.
POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE
NEEDED IN THIS ELECTION
(Denver Post.)
The 1942 political campaign
is a battle between democracy
and bureaucracy. Your freedom
as an American citizen to en
joy all the individual liberties
guaranteed you in the consti
tution of the United States is
at stake. The issue is preserva
tion of the American constitu
tional form of government. That
is the form of government under
which every citizen is free to
live his or her own life without
being dictated to at every step
by bureaucratic masters over
whom the people have no control.
Only a political earthquake
can save our constitutional sys
tem of government, restore the
liberties of which our people al
ready have been stripped, and
preserve “government of the
people, by the people and for the
people" in these United States.
Only a political upheavel, such
as this country has not experi
enced in years, can save this re
public from degenerating into a
totalitarian state ruled by a
bureaucratic dictatorship.
Germany is a one party coun
try. The nazis run it, and you
know how. Soviet Russia is a
one party country. The com
munists run it, and you know
how. For the last decade, the
United States has been a one
party country. The democratic
party has been running it. You
know what has happened. The
only way the political balance
can be restored to stop the im
position of a total bureaucratic
dictatorship upon all the Ameri
can people is by registering a
protest so emphatic that not
even politically blind bureau
crats can ignore it.
In the past, in endeavoring to
obtain the best possible admin
istration of government, the Post
has always advocated voting for
the man rather than the party.
In the present crisis, that policy
will not suflice. Any public pro
test, to be effective, must be
registered through a political |
party. The republican party is j
the only one available for this
purpose. The bureaucrats have
the democratic party hogtied and
at their mercy.
It is not the individual candi
date who counts in this elec
tion. The all important thing
is the principle. And that prin
ciple is the preservation here
in the United States of the
very liberties we are fighting
to save for the rest of the world,
and for the millions of Ameri
cans risking their lives on
global battle fronts, when they
return home.
If enough of the American
people vote republican in the
November 3 election, they can
elect a republican house and put
republicans into one-third of the
seats in the senate. Such a po
litical landsdide would force
congress to assert its constitu
tional authority and use the ax
on the bureaucratic underbrush
which is choking out constitu
tional government in Washing
ton.
There is no language Washing
ton understands so thoroughly as
the election returns. Vote
the republican ticket from top to
bottom on November 3, and no
body can possibly fail to hear
that protest against the bureau
cratic distatorship which is
strangling the traditional free
doms the American people have
enjoyed for the last century
and a half.

KNOW YOUR CONGRESSMAN
Comments and news concern
ing Dr. A. L. Miller, republican
candidate for Congress, indicate
that he will not only win but that
he has the proper qualifications
to represent the 4th district, state
and the nation in Congress.
The 4th district is an agricul
tural and stockman's district. A.
L. Miller was born on a farm and
spent the first twenty years of his
life on this Pierce county farm.
He taught school and worked his
way through medical college and
after World War I he located in
Kimball, Nebr. He now owns
both dry and irrigated farms in
western Nebraska. He and Mrs.
Miller have visited many towns in
the district. He understands the
problems of the district.
A. L. Miller has been success
ful not only as a businessman but
as a physician, a legislator and a
public official. He served as the
mayor of his town, on their school
boards and has been active in thej
community and church life. He'
is a Mason, an Elk and a member
of the Knights of Pythias Lodge.
A. L. Miller served with distinc
tion in the Unicameral Legisla- j
ture for four years. He served as
State Health Director until July
1, 1942. His hobby is the study
of Good Government.
His home town paper makes
the following comment on his
qualifications:
“It is most imperative that we
have an honest, fearless man rep
resent us in Washington during
this national crisis, for the work
which must be dome requires far
sightedness, strength of charac
ter and a personal knowledge of
our problems. It is for this rea
son we recommend -Or. A. L.
Miller, who is a successful bus
inessman, an able executive who
has a personal knowledge of farm
and stock problems, being an
owner of both. He has a sincere
interest in furthering the devel
opment of his state and of his
district. He is worthy of the en
dorsement of the people as Con- ;
• gressman from the 4th District.” I

Yes, folks, this unimportant looking insulator Is a
vital link in the chain of electric service. The lines
that connect city to city, house to house, and war plant
to war plant all depend on insulators mounted on poles
to keep electricity flowing smoothly, constantly without
interruptions. ONE DAMAGED INSULATOR CONCEIV
ABLY COULD SERIOUSLY AFFECT THE SUCCESSFUL
PROSECUTION OF THE WAR, to say nothing of the in
convenience and damage it might cause you and your
fellow citizens by throwing entire communities out ol
service.
HUNTERS! Your Cooperation Sought
With the hunting season underway, insulators among other objects
provide bandy targets upon which to sharpen ones marksman
ship. We earaeetly urge you to gxm the insulators atop the pole*
whether the limes happen to bo electric, telephone or telegraph.
Every insulator now in service Is doing double duty—SERVING
YOU AND UNCLE SAM. We urgently solicit your cooperation.
