NOVEMBER I, 1009
IN CONCLUSION.
The campaign has practically come
to an end. Tomorrow the battle of
the ballots will decide the contest.
The campaign in some instances has
been a bitter one. Animosities have
been cracted which will never be heal
ed. Men will go down to their graves
with bitter thoughts of their neighbor,
caused by the accusations made in this
campaign.
Both parties recognizing that a
nomination by their party was not
cquivilent to an election, placed good
men upon their county tickets. The
campaign might have progressed to
the end, as it started, in a friendly
manner and without emmity, but for
one disturbing element. The campaign
might have begun and ended and the
candidates at its close clasped hands
across the ballot box and congratulated
each other that the campaign was over
and could take each other by the hand
and asneighbors and friends be glad
that no feelings were hurt and no
friendships severed, but for one thing.
Men in their eagerness for the spoils
of office, were not true to their man
hood. They forgot the friendships of
other days and were willing to go to
any length, sacrifice what might have
been eternal friendship, if only they
might continue to feed at the public
crib and enjoy the emoluments of
office. Men whose character had for
years been above reproach were false
ly accused. Men who had served the
public faithfully and would turn over
to the public at the end of their term
the office entrusted to their care, as
clean and untarnished as when it was
received from the hands of their, prede
cessor, were accused of dishonest acts.
Possibly they might not have con
ducted that office inthe manner wihch
BJme menj might have conducted it.
Possibly they may have neglected to
have made the entries upon their re
cords in just exactly the way they
would have been made by men who
were brought up in office work.
Possibly they might have been just
a little negligent at times in making
the reports that the law required that
they should have made. PoBsilby they
may not have done all the things that
is expected of a public officer in just
the way that others may Have thought
they ought to have been done. But
no man doubted their honesty until
other men in their madness for the
Bpoils that go with office, assailed their
character and brought reproach upon
the guod name of a neighbor.
It did not matter that the official was
under a good and sufficient bond which
would protect the public from all lose
It did not matter that if the business
had not been conducted in the latest
and most approved methods, that the
tax payer would not be in danger,
these things were forgotten, and in
the mad rush for spoils the name of i
good man, a kind and obliging neigh
bor and an honest citizen must be
trailed in the mud, -just so that they
gain their ends.. . . .,
But in their haste to gain the prize
they forgot to cover their tracks. In
their haste to gather the sheckles that
would naturally come irom the acquis
ition of these offices to their party.
They over stepped the bounds of dect n
cy. In their haste to prove the guilt of
the party they would seek to humiliate
and defeat, they were so ture of their
ground that they staked their all on
one turn of the wheel and instead of
proving the officer guilty they them
selves were compelled to proclaim their
innocence. ,, .
The campaigu is over. Tomorrow is
the, time for action. , Possibly this pa
per; has nq right, to jcuggest V; the

voter how he should cast his ballot.
Possibly we ought not to say what we
have said or what we may say. But
we have tried to conduct the campaign,
or rather our part of it, on the square.
The question for the voter to decide
has heen placed before him in such a
way that there is no sidestepping the
responsibility.
Are you going to aid in the kind of a
campaign that has been put up against
honest men by assisting in the unholy
campaign that has been put up against
Sheriff Quinton, E. E. Odelland others.
If you cast your votes against these
men you are countenancing the kind
of campaign that has been put up by
their enemies who were willing to ruin
the reputation of these honorable citi
zens just so that they could get the
chance to rake in the few dollars which
would naturally come to them through
the election of their own candidates,
Is Old Cass to be the future battle
ground of square honest fighting, or
are the disreputable methods used in
this campaign to have your sanction
and approval by the casting of your
vote.
Voter, it is up to you.
In District Court.

first hearing is Bet for next Monday.

ing why the sale should not be con

zens Proves it
After reading the public statement
of this representative citizen of Platts
mouth, given below, you must come to
this conclusion: A remedy which cured
years ago, which has kept the kidneys
in good health since, can be relied up
on to perform the same work in other
cases. Read this:
J. W. Hickson, Oak Street, riatts
mouth, Nebr., says: "I will never
cease to praise Doan's Kidney Pills,
as they were of sftch great benefit tq,
me several years ago. My Kidneys and
back were a source of constant suffer
ing and I was subject to attacks of
umbago that came on without the
east warning. The simplest move
ment was painful and I was anoyed
more or less by the irregular passages
of the kidney secretions. I read so
much about Doan's Kidney Pills, that
I finally procured a box from Gering &
Co. 's drug store. I was bo gratified
with the results of their use that I
publicly endorsed them in 1906 and at
this time, I heartily renew that state
ment. I hope that other kidney suf
ferers will profit by my experience."

i
By EMMA D. MORRIS.
icopyrlght, laos, by American l'ri Asso
ciation. Every young man bus bis Ideal ca
reer. Due wishes to accomplish some
great good, another wishes for power and
another for wealth. James I.eadbeuter,
an English waiter In a New Vork club,
wished to cut a swutb. He would He
awake nights drrnuilug of riding be
hind a spun, a eoacbmun In livery on
tbe box, himself in the vehicle, a
"tiger" behind, lie kuew that uiouey
alone would enable blm to realize bis
dream and wished money for this sole
purpose. He bud no tbougbt of work
ing for lt-suvlng It. Possibly If be
bud wotkwl for and saved It wbeu be
had got enough together to eiiuct tbe
paTj o a swell be would have put off
doing so, bis dream baring been sup
planted by tb pleax'i'e of uet'iunulnt
lng. As it was be uhued to make
money rapidly and without labor.
An uncle died and left him $1,000.
As suou as bo had received his In
heritance he took a second class pas
sage for Genon nud from there went
to Monte Curio. On reaching tbe latter
place be bud $:xkj Id bis pocket and
was sufficiently well dressed to rbtnlu
admission v to i.io gambling subus.
Thitber be went and begun to piny.
Of tbe vicissitudes attending bis ca
reer over the tubles It is only neces
sary to this story to state that. tbougU
many times reduced to a few francs,
he mnunged always to buve something
with which to go on playiug. At sucb
times be would bet guardedly till bis
luck bud changed, tbeu "plunge." Jo
tbls way be dually got together enough
money to attain bis ambition. lie
bought a pair of horses, a carriage
and hired a coucbiuan and a tiger.
The day be snw bis conch driven up to
bis door and tbe tiger dismount and
opeu tbe door for biiu was tbe happi
est of his life. He contrasted tbe
scene with bis own self lu cluret col
ored coat nud trousers mid yellow
striped vest serving members of the
club at which be bad been u waiter.
Strutting to Ids equipage with tbe uir
of a marquis, be throw bluiself buck on
the cushions and was rolled away lu
supreme comfort.
For a month lie gave himself up to
the realization of bis dream, uever vis
iting tbe tables lest something might
occur to mar bis enjoyment. But at
tbe end of that time he returned to
tbe field of tbe cloth of gold witb a
view simply to amusement. At times
he won and at times, like every other
gambler, lost. Finally be struck a
vein of bad luck and for a time feared
that he would buve to discharge bis
coachman and footman. He managed to
keep them by putting off tbe payment
of their wages, but ran heavily In debt
to his footman, who was more willing
to wait than the coachman.
Then Lead ben ter Invented a princi
ple ou which he was sure to wiu at
the tables. He tried it and won.
though It Is probable his success was
rut her due to a run of luck. than bis
prluclple. He won steadily, luit not
heavily. One day while driving through
the environs of Monte Carlo, Hie envy
of all who could not afford sucb a
turnout, his tiger, sitting on the box
In rear, tapped on the buck window.
"What Is it, Armand?" asked Lend
beater, letting down the little square
sasb,-
"Uould not your excellency pay me
some of tbe wages due meV"
Excellency! How delicious the word
always sounded! An Idea occurred to
the master by which be might dis
charge the debt without costing him
anything. He knew his tiger would
gamble If he had a chance. Every
body at Monte Carlo gnmbled. lnd
benter would win the amount of his
wages.
"now much do I owe yon. Armand?"
"Five hundred francs."
"Here It Is," replied the mnster. tnk
Ing five 100-fninc notes from his pock
etbook. Then he changed from the
front to the br.ck sent. "Have you a
pack of rnrds? Ah. how fortunnte! Let
us have a gunie. The back sent will
serve us for a table. You can sit where
you are and piny through the win
dow." "You are very condescending, excel
lency, to play with your footmnn," sold
tbe mnn, much flattered.
They were by this time quite out lu
the country, where they were not like
ly to meet ninny people. Lendboater
directed his conchmnn to drive slowly,
and the two gamblers became greatly
absorbed In the gnme. Grndunlly the
lackey's stake went through the back
window info bis nocktt. Within half
an hour lie had won all the money his
muster bud with blm, and this was
nil Lendbeater possessed except his
dearly prized turnout. To recoup, he
bet one of his horses. He lost. Then
he bet the other horse, the harness, the
livery, the carriage. All passed from
tnntnr to man.-The dream of Lead
iM'ater's life had faded. He had uwuk
eiied to the reality of life without a
cent In bis pocket. He lay buck on the
cushion and groaned. The winner was
Julillaiit. but be was touched by his
Muster's misfortune
"I w ill mnke your excellency n prop

sessions, give you hnlf and keep half
myself."
Within the most contemptible breasts
lias linen plnnted something noble.

ALCO CAR CAPTURES VANDER
BILT CUP BEFORE BIG
CROWD.
VICTOR'S TIME IS 4:25:42
Matson and Harroun Take the Short
Events Fatal Accident Occurs as
Machine Is Driven to the Race
Course.
Motor Parkway, Long Island, Nov. 1.
Driving his Alco car like a Wagner,
Hemery of Heath, H. P. Grant won the
fifth Vanderbllt cup race by a spurt
that brought him from a position
eight miles back of the leader In sec
ond place when the finish line was 50
miles away.
Grant drove around the 12.64-mlle
circuit 22 times in 4:22:42. E. H.
Parker, piloting the Fiat, No. 14, was
second, In 5:30:58 3-5. Parker, after
trailing "liilly" Knlpper, driver of the
Chalmers-Detroit car No. 7, for many
laps, once took the lead In the big
race, but both Plat and Chalmers-Detroit
succumbed to the burst of speed
of young Grant, the American Loco
motive Company's star driver, in the
27S.08-mile stock car contest.
Sixteen Start; Few Finish.
Sixteen cars started In this classic
competition; one-eighth that number
officially finished. Minor accidents
disabled cars, but happily there were
no fatalities or even serious accidents.
Knlpper, leader from the early part
of the race to the twentieth circuit, in
his Chalmers-Detroit, which he was
hanl i;g in place of Driver Hert Ding
ley, injuied last Monday In practice
driving v'.s In third position when
the Va:;i''.-ibilt was declared ended.
Only t.o other cars the MercedeB,
dmeii by Spencer C. Wishart, and the
Atlas, piloted by Elmer Knox.
were on the course when the swarm
ing throng at the officials" stand caused
the official termination of the contest.
It is said that the promoters of the
Vanderbllt will never consent to the
simultaneous running of subordinate
trophy events as features of the
classic contest because of the unsat
isfactory termination of the big car
race.
Matson Takes Massapequa.
Simultaneously with the Vanderbllt,
two subordinate trophy events were
decided for smaller cars. Each was
a disappointment in time and number
of cars to finish.
The Mansapen.ua sweepstakes, of
ten laps, or 12G.4 miles, was won by
"Joe" Matson, In his Chalmers-Detroit,
No. 43, in 2.00:52 2-15. Martin Door
ley, driving Maxwell car, No. 46, was
second, and Arthur See, piloting the
Maxwell No. 44, was third.
The Wlieatley Hills trophy, sweep
stakes for cars of class 3. 15 laps, or
189.6 miles, was won by Uay Harroun,
driving Marmon car No. 32. He cov
ered the distance in 3:10:21 2-5. Tht
only other car in this division to fin
ish was the Columbia, No, 33, driven
by It. W. Wilcox. The cr.rs that failed
to OnlHh were: Marlon, 31, Munsor,
driver, and Moon, No. 34, Phil Wells,,,
driver.
One Person Killed.
While speeding to the race, a big
