The members of the Eastern Star
gave a delightful Hallowe'en party at
their club rooms in the Masonic hall

measure of identification later on

proper time refreshments were served

The Juniors chartered an Immense

the evening. After enjoying the
games and a social time, a short pro
gram was had consisting of reading
and vocal music. Miss Pernlce New

Deserted Their Platform.
A leading republican candidate In
this county states that all the repub
lican candidates had deserted and re
pudiated the platform. One candidate
for representatCk. while this gentle
man was talking, came up and stated
he for one had repudiated It and
wanted the voters to know It. This
is very nice for the voters, but these
same nien, If elected, will be driven
Into line by the party caucus, which
will be held at Lincoln prior to the
meeting of the legislature. Th
voters should bear this In mind and
knowing they will not and cannot
keep their pledges should vote "for
the democrats who are standing on
their platform and will keep every
pledge made therein. The votera
should stop and think before voting
for any of tho nominees on the
republican ticket, because they have
made pledges pro and con and do not
mean to keep any of them. They will
bo forced to be for county option
and they cannot help themselves, be
cause the party lenders will force
them Into line Nebraska City News.

We do not believe the republicans
will turn down Herman Dettman be
cause of his alleged "taking the
stump" for a certain democrat some
years ago, without satisfactory proof
of his so doing. Mr. Dettman doesn't
deny that ho voted for this democrat;
