The assessor's ollicc is one of

Two years hko Aldrich promis
ed the people so many reforms
that evidently he has forgotten
four-fifths of them, and probably
more than that. He was then
running his llrst race for gov
ernor and prointsed most any
thing to be elected. Many of
Iheso promises he never expected
to fulfill. He is nf the same trick
again this year. He should re
member what Honest Old Abe
Lincoln paid about fooling all the
people all the lime. The people
of Nebraska are onto his flipflops
in treat shape.

the Fifth district, favors paying

very good idea, and one which no

Tuft's veto of the wool bill is
enough to defeat him if nothing
more. It was u democratic con
gress I Hal win ked to pass meas

while the president used his veto
in the interests of the trusts.

lined up with the common fellows

to carry water on both shoulders

Senalor Cure makes a sugges
tion, which if adopted, would soon
determine whether the tariff is oi
l's not a cause of the high cost of
living. Let every article, he said,
be tagged with its price plus the
tariff, and also with its Hat price
without the tariff additional.
F.verybody could then make his
purchase according lo his politi
cal convictions.
:o:
If the election of president
should be thrown into the house,
as there is a possibility it might,
it is up (o the volers of the First
congressional district, and
especially President Tail's
friends, to know, if I'aul Clark is
elected, whether he will vole for
Roosevelt or Taft? Put the ipies
lion right to him. This deceit in
politics is as bad as deceit in re
ligion. There are many republicans in
Cass county who intend to vole
for John A. Maguire because they
believe him to be a square man,
and he has given his constituents
a square deal, impartially admin
istered to republicans and demo
crats alike. In that respect he
has proved one of the fairest con
gressmen that ever represented
the people of the First district,
and should lie returned liv an in
creased majority. He is far ahead
of Paul Clark in ability, and
never did fry to deceive the peo
ple in order lo be elected lo the
position he has so honorably fill
ed. The people know right where
lo find John Maguire, and that is
the kind of a man they like.
:o:
Words of praise for lion. John
II. Morehead come from every
section of the slate. And in many
instances they come direct from
republicans who voted for Aldrich
I wo years ago, but will vote for
Mr. Morehead this time. A form
er republican farmer, who re
moved to the western part of the
stale several years ago, and who
is a subscriber to the Journal,
writes as follows: "I see by the
Journal you are a great admirer
of John II. Morehead, democratic
candidate for governor. I had the
pleasure of necting him last
week, and I want to tell you that
I admire him to the extent that
I am going to vole for him. As
you know, I am a republican, but
I prefer to vote for a man like Mr.
Morehead than a straddler like
Aldrich, who I voted for two years
ago.
:o :-
To date John II. Morehead has
conducted his campaiun on a
high plane. He has taken the
voters into his coulldeuce and told
them plainly what he stands for.
llillingsgale, obscure abuse and
profane ejaculations he has left
entirely lo his opponent. The
editor of this newspaper has had
Ihe pleasure of knowing every
Nebraska governor since John M.
Thayer. He has heard more
profanity, obscenity and billings
gale during the last eighteen
mouths of the present regime
than he heard during all the years
of Thayer, Holconib, Crounse,
Sheldon, Poynler and Shalleu
berger. And if he remembers
rightly none of Ihe above named
gentlemen posed as moral pre.
ceplors and exemplars of the
righteous life. Will Waupin's

MANY THANKS.
For the past week or so the
Pluttsinouth Journal has been
nmning editorial paragraphs like
lb' following, clipped from a
recent issue: "Paul Clark has
not declared .yet which side of
Ihe fence he is on. Will he sup
port Roosevelt or will he smpport
Taft Out with it, I'aul. There
are a. great many regular repub
licans who want to know and they
propose to knew before- they will
consent lo vote for you on the 5th
day of November." This para
graph, is referred to merely to
point rmit that that kind of cam
pa igniiwg by the newspapers,
country and city alike, is almost
a back number. The editor of the
Plaits-mouth, paper can scarcely
be igmurant of what, it may be
safe ti say, half of the people in
the dUtriet know, that Clark de
clared for Roosevelt before the
Chicago convention was at an end,
ami has been hard put to it to
secure enough adjectives to ex
press his opinion of Marnes and
Penrose. If the editor does not
know this he is a blind leader of
the blind. The chances are that
he does know it, and living in the
dark ages of politics, thinks mis

While the editor of the Jour
nal may be a back number, it will
be seen he has been shrewd
enough to make the annex of the
Old State Journal print for once
an acknowledgement that we have
never before seen in print in that
repeater of Ihe morning news of
the Slate Journal. We do remem
ber how Clark raved and tore
armtinl and abused President Taft
after his nomination at Chicago.
We also remember that Clark
used vile epithets in denouncing;
the president and announcing the
fact that he was for Roosevelt and
would not support Taft under any
circumstances. But we wanted to
see the Journal or News ac
knowledge the corn, for fear the
Taft followers might forget the
incident. We feel greatly relieved
at accomplishing just what we
were after an acknowledgement
from the State Journal or its aft
ernoon annex that Paul Clark is
yet for Roosevelt. Many thanks!
