A democrat stands just about as much show of being elected president three years from now as a non-resident has of getting a drink of beer in Lincoln on Sunday afternoon. CALLED TO CONVENTION.

The World-Herald Btands "amazed" at the president's partisanship. Good Lord! If there has ever been anything so vile, or anything so unreasonable, or anything so disreputable that has ever been fathered by the democratic party that the World-Herald has always stood np for we have never heard of it. It was only necessary to have the demo cratic brand to find the World-Herald it; champion first, last and all the time. The only fault that the opponents of Sheriff Quinton can find with his ad ministration of the sheriff's office is that he has had it long enough. Four years docs seem like an awful long while to the fellow that is out and wants to get in. But cheer up breth ren, its liable to be a mighty long while yet before you can wear the badge, and it doesen't pay to keep Bolemnmelancholy too long. coming and when it passed over the plate swatted it over the fence. No voter, when he goes to the polls, should fail to remember Prof. E. E. Odell, republican candidate for county superintendent. He has made the educational business a study and al ways successfully. He is built upon the board principle that every man who comes to him or every worrian who has occasion to consult him along the lines of education, will be given equal consideration, no matter what his or her politics. He is not asking for the office for any other reason than that he is qualified for the posision and if e lected will give the office his very best effort. He is a graduate of the Peru Normal and has had experience at the head of some of our best schools. His experience and general good sound judgement makes him an ideal candi date and he Bhould be elected. close the season in about the fourth and fifth places. Sioux City, the champions of last year, though start ing badly, soon struck their gait and it soon became evident that they would lead the bunch when they passed under the wire at the close of the season. At one t'me Denver wa3 a contender for the pennant, but lack of a good mana ger soon put them to the bad, and the race narrowed down to Sioux City, Des Moines and Omaha, which will prob ably close the season in that order. The sensation of the year however has been the Lincoln team. Starting in at the bottom they persistently held on to that position until August 17th, when starting out after an almost nnbroken string of defeats, and under the man agement of Jimmie Sullivan, they be gan to climb and for the balance of the season won nearly seventy-five per cent of their games, at one time equal ling the worlds record of six phut-outs B. I. Clements of Elmwood is a can didate for re-election to the office of coronor. Mr. Clements has made a good coronor, and while his duties have not been arduous, still there is no knowing what might happen, and it is a good thing to be prepared for the worst. An inexperienced man might cost the county several dollars which it was not jiecessary to expend. There fore vote for Coronor Clements for for re-electiqn. The Commoner does not like the speeches of President Taft being made on his trip over the country. Strange. But did you ever stop to think how easy it is for one without any respon sibility on his shoulders to stand off and find fault with the one who has? Mr. Bryan and his Crmmoner have hever been anything else but fault finders and probubly never will be in any position where there will be any responsibility on their shoulders so others can find fiault. We lave often wondered why some body didn't start a republican paper in Lincoln. Lancaster county up to a year ago was quite strongly republican, and ought to be a gcod field for a live paper of the republican brand. The Lincoln Daily News says that the boys who are upholding President Taft are the fellows who have good fat appointments. Then we suppose it is retsonablo to believe that)the fel lows who are knocking bo hard are the ones who didn't get them. Somehow the average democratic newspaper editor cannot understand how a republican can speak his con victions without first taking his sound ings to find out how the public feels on the subject. They have had so much "politics for pclicy only" from their three-time presidential candidate, that they cannot comprehend how President Taft can taks a stand for what he be lieves is right when it is liable to bring criticism from those who do not under stand and who also think they know it all Some people think that any old deal is all right in politics, but honesty in politics should be the watchword as well as in any other walk in life. The fake stories in circulation regarding the nationality of George Lushinsky and attempts to make him appear a saloon bum are decidedly unfair and will assist him rather than harm him as soon as the facts are made known. George Lushinsky was born in Ger many in 1870 and came to America when small. He has been in the em ployment of the Burlington for many years and has shown himself to be a man of character and good standing. He talks and writes German like a native, is well qualified to fill the posi tion and should poll every vote cast by the man who has to work for a living and earns his wages by the sweat of his brow and the work of his brawny muscle. If you have to hire a man to run your business, you will certainly en gage one who has made business a suc cess. The affairs of the county should be in the hands of good businessmen who knowing the needs of the 'county will know what is best to be. done. Martin L. Friedrich has made a good commiBsjonejr. lje Jia made atjspccess. in farming because he used ' busineis principles in conducting his farm. His unfortunate neighbors who have suf fered from the misfortunes of crop failures know that they never had to go to Martin Friedrich for assistance and be turned away empty handed. He did not keep his good fortune to him self, but let others share it iu their hour of need. Those who know' Martin Friedrich best are for him for county commissioner the hardest, and his elec tion is not only assured, but by a larger majority than ever before. Peo ple don't turn down public officers of the stamp of Mr. Friedrich, but keep them for they know their interests are well taken care of. The street car Btrike in 'Omaha reached an acute stage during the past week and much rioting occured at one time. The stnet railroad management declare that the striken are wrong and the strikers say the same thing about the management. We have read very carefully the statements made by both sides in the controversy, and we think that both ought to make some conces sions. A laboring man who has to leave home at five o'clock in the morn ing and not get back till seven, in the evening and then gets pay for only nine hours certainly has a grievance and the car company should listen to his complaint and give him some chance to earn his wages without being com pelled to put in fourteen hours and draw only nine hours pay. On the other hand there may be some concessions that the strikers should make to the company, and both sides should remem ber that the rights of the public demand a speedv settlement of the controversy and get together in some manner. in succession. Most of the teams have made good money, and many of them have disposed of several players to the big leagues, thus adding to their pro fits. The season in the big leagues has been also of the sensational order, in each case the fight for the pen.iant not being settled till the season was nearly over. Without much doubt Detroit will again win in the American and Pittsburg in the National. The fight in the American Association has been exceeding close, at one time less than one hundred points covering the entire eight clubs, while at the present time only a very few points divede Louisville, Milwaukee and Minneapolis. lllcient scholar. He reads, writ' s peaks German fluently. His first j oyer was Julius lVpperburg. f Geo. Lushinsky was born in Germany in 1870, and came to Cass county with his parents in 18"!). He attended the public schools of Plattsmouth, and after completing the course took special instruction in the higher branches under Rev. II. li. Burgess. He was a diligent student and took hitrh rank in his classes. He is a good and etlicient : and sp employe About twenty-seven years ago be en tered the employ of the B. & M. rail way, in whose employ he has continued ever since, except nine years when be was employed by the Colorado Midland at Denver. Ho is a solter.industrious, and honorable man, and a member of the German church in this city. He belongs to the rank and lile of the re publican party, and he has the unani mous praise of hundreds of his fellow workingmen. I lis election as County Clerk would be a fitting recognition of the honest laborer. New Automobile.
