Senator Hitchcock Is making
friends everywhere by his gentle
manly manner in his efforts to con
vince the people rightly on the issues
that confront them.
:o:
Disarmament achieved by the Eu
ropean plan has its disadvantages.
Greece seems to be very effectively
disarmed, but to bring that result
about Europe had to raise the ques
tion: "Who is to disarm Turkey?"

Mark Sullivan, one of the most im
partial correspondents among the
whole host engaged in that business,
says that while trie democrats will
make groat gains in congress it is
almost impossible to overcome the
groat republicau majority:
There is another that boareth wit

Morehead for congress beeanse they
know that he will serve them well

is before them and he wa3 highly
praised for his ability and honesty.
Yon don't know his opponent.
: :-:o:
Direct taxation by Uncle. Sam now
averages $ 26.80 a year for each per
son in the country. At that; we are
getting off cheaply. The English
man's yearly tax is an average ot
$75.12 and the Frenchman's $39.03.
The German gets out with $1.26 a
year, which illustrates the advantage
of losing a modern war.
Many editors feel they must put
down Turks IX they have to shed the
last trace of Ink in their typewriter
ribbons to do it.

Another reason living can't be re

people persist in squeezing the tooth

The main objection to these cool

It is again reported that the Amer

The Daugherty ruling on ocean

:o:
R. B. Howell has lowered his
standard eomewhat in tJw past week i4
or two. and if he keeps on lowering
It, it will be down and out by elec-
tion day. The people begin to under
stand Mr. Howell's policy of carry
ing water on both shoulders. They
know he can't be honest in claiming
to be reactionary and progressive T
both. Oilt upon twtf-faced politics.
Only a short time until the bat

conditions in tax-ridden Nebraska.

Crime among children is increas

who will see that the code is con
signed in the same political grave

:o: :
President Harding was ripped up
the back in great shape by the Le
gion convention at New Orleans. We
cannot see how even one of the boys
who did service over seas can sup
port the republican ticket in any
state in the union at this time. They
not only defeated the bonus bill, but
they have placed upon the people a
tariff law that will tax them almost
double price for everything they buy
to eat and wear in the future.
:o:
McAdoo suggests that the average
earnings of the favored trusts and
monopolies a-nd corporations under
the Fordney-McCumber tariff bill be
ascertained for a three oi: five year
period immediately preceding the
passage of the law, and thai the
earnings of these trusts, monopolies
and corporations after the passage of
the Fordney-McCumber bill be as
certained annually; and that 50 per
cent of the amounts earned by them
in excess of the average . earnings
prior to the passage of the Fordney-
McCumber bill be devoted to the
payment of the Soldiers' bonus.

Call at my Expense
A JIAN OP PROVEN' CALIBRE
In a time like this when the peo-
pie's attention is centered upon, the
necessity of cutting down public ex-
penditures and tax burdens, the can
didacy of srich a man as John H.
Morehead, democratic nominee for j
congress in the First district, has a.'
particularly fitfbrig appeal. A record
of four yeiri' service td thi state of
Nebraska, during his becupancy of;
the governor's rfflce; stamps Mr. j
Morehead as a safe man to trust with .
public business. I
Long before the tax question be- i
came the acute issue that it Is now;
he was bending his ofneial ecorts to-;
ward a reduction in the cost of gov
ernment, and with such success that
during the last two years of his ad
ministration state taxes were reduc
ed a million dollars from what they
had been before.
Mr. Morehead, as governor, set an
example of simplicity and economy
to all state departments and employ
es, by asking the legislature to cut
down the appropriation of his own
office. He paid all his own traveling 1
expenses and abolished the use of
f . i i I
mileage cooks, wnicii nas ueeu reviv
ed under the present administration,
and serves as a means of covering
up private trips made at public expense.
Instead of surrounding himself
with a set bt flunkies and a red tape
1 . 1
system, Mr. Morehead personally at
tended fo the business of the state.
The legislature of 1915 showed its
confidence In him by appropriating
k special fund for paving along the
university farm northeast of Lincoln,
the expenditure of which was placed
in his hands. .Prison labor was U3ed
on this project and a considerable
part of the money was never spent,
the cost being held down to a figure
well below the appropriation.
It was Governor Morehead who ap
pointed the first board of control for
state Institutions and removed them
from the sphere of partisan politics.
He showed his freedom from party
bias in other ways by retaining ap
pointive republican officials who had
demonstrated their worth and capa
city under a previous, and by recom
mending td the legislature in his
first message that the party circle be
abolished ifi order to stimulate" in
dependent voting.
The democratic simplicity of Mr.
Morehead was not only manifested In
his official career but also in bis pri
vate life. While his family occupied
the executive mansion, its members
looked after the household details
themselves Instead of having the
work done by servants. The humbl
est citizen was as Welcome there as
the wealthiest or most influential.
Before his election to the gover
norship. John Morehead had served
as mayor of Falls City, treasurer of
Richardson county, and state sena
tor from the First district. In all
these positions he handled the public
business with the same careful and
painstaking attention that he gave
to his own affairs.
It is only a simple statement of
fact therefore, to say that in sending
Mr. Moreehad to congress the voters
of the First district will secure the
services of a man who has been thor
oughly tested in the domain of gov
ernment and has never been found
wanting.
The First district has been fortun
ate in being represented at Washing
ton, during the past seven years', by
a high type man like Congressman
C. F. Reavis. The people of the dis
trict owe it td themselves to send an
other high type man like John H.
Morehead to take his place at Wash
ington. Lincoln Star.
