Thus have amicable lipiomatie relations between us and Columbia been restored and the honor of our country is ruarded. There arc always factions in any parly before nominations are made. In every presidential campaign some are for one man and some are for another. In the last democratic national con vention there were several can didates for the presidency, in cluding Wilson,' Clark, Harmon and Underwood. After the mat ter was settled the friends of all the candidates rallied to the support 'of President Wilson and helped elect him. Now it seems that an applicant for office must be an original Wilson man to have a ghost of a show to be successful. Is that right? It doesn't look that way to the writer. . :o: Otoe county has another can didate, in the person of Charles Marshall, president of the Otoe County National bank at Ne braska City, whose friends are booming him for the republican nomination for governor. But they do not mention whether on the bull moose or stand-pat ticket. nternational Harvester Manure Spreaders Ihe X H C Line CRAIM AND HAI MACHiNS Hssdtn.
