The governor. accompanied by
Hon. W. B. Banning of Union, can-

Langhorst, county chairman, ha,
Inst completed an all day trip thru
the northern portion of f'ass county
and in Greenwood. Louisville and
Cedar Creek as well as South Bend
had met a large number of the vot- ,
ers.
At the meeting here Senator Ban
ning presided, being introduced by
C L M. A Bates, and the next m na- j
tor proceeded to discuss in a very I
eaiaeal manner the story of the loot-
lag of the str?te by the tax-eaters at j
Lincoln. Mr. Banning, who was in ;
the legislature of 1909, touched on '
the fact that the expenses of the;
sate at that tim? w re Sj.oOi'.OOo
fcr the two years while under the
last two peftrs of M.Kelvie tiie cost '
had been $39,000,000. In speaking;

Banning stated thru ho had intro-1
dir. 1 the f;r?t bill for the creation i
of a state highway commissioner, but
at that time it had failed to pass. I Tie
senator was strongly for good roads
but thought that just as good roads
could be built for less money per
mile than was usd by the array of
engineers and overseers that were
i d by the state in this line of work. !
As the example cf costs he showed
the federal aid highways from Om
aha to the state lin south and the
ig'e-I'almyra project, bottr of
which run through this county and
which rn;t somt.fH in? like $2.r00!

Governor Morehead stated that the
republicans were preparing to clrcu-
kite at the last moment of the cam -
naign a frantic effort to divert the
minds of the voters from ihe issue eif
taxation and misgovernment to that
of the liquor question by a delib-json

Mr .Morehead challenged any Invee-I

Farmers are beginninp; to realize the
advantage of being able to turn dairy pro
ducts, hogs, garden truck, chickens,
etc. into ready cash. From thr amount
of produce brought here yesterday (Bar

and more of them are planning their op
erations to include the items which can be
cashed promptly. And it is well to do so.
We're always glad to co-operate with
the farmer who wants to diversify. Glad
to talk with you about these things.
