To whom it may concern: I take pleasure insaying that I attended the last three teach ers institutes held by Supt. j. B Burke in Sioux county und found the work admir ably adapted to the need of the county. Mr. Burke seemed to lie deeply interested in the institute and in everything that would help to (it his teachers for better work. U is my opinion that l has (lone much for the advancement of the schools of Sioux county, L. M. OlSEItKOTTKIl. This is what the Principal of the Chad ron Academy says of J B.

We w ish to call the attention of the voters and all that are interested in the education of jour children to the fact that there i not an ofll :e in the county where there can lie more harm done than m this ollice, and on the other baud there can he the same amount of good done if the ollice is properly conducted. The law surrounds all the ot'ier offices, but not so with the county superintendent., for he can build up your schools or he can tear them down, and your only re course is to vote him out of ollice when the time comes, hut what are you going to do about your children that have been robbed of what justly belongs to I hem durin,-; this tune? Don't understand me lo say that there is no law at all for the superintendent, but Ihe veiy essential points are not covered that is his discret ionary power as to who is competent to teach, and a great many things thai will injure I he school work that in some instances you can never remedy. The gravest questions that arise in the col. nty come before Ihe county superin tendent for his judicial action, and now comes the lime when this work will go up or down. We know whereof we heak and if vour present county superiii tciit nl would express his opinion we assure you that he would agiee with this statement. He ure soiry to say that iu this county loo little importance is plac ed on this the greatest ollice, or work that we have not only in the county but in Ihe state, Take our education from us and where are we? It is to some the Same as the light, darkness and changes of the seasons. It is here, and we are using it, but we want to say right here that it is through some one's mid night oil being burned that we retain our educational uttn, women and institutions. Are von interested in this great work vo'er, or is it a matter of politics regard less of qua lidcn tioii? The question Is always with you who shall he your servant. Vote for the interest of your children, and not the man. ATT011NKYS KISIIER AND WU.I.S.

ALLEN O. I'iSIIEK. Those who personally know AlltnG. Fislu r will readily understand that he is a dead mate to Dn kson. But many people of Ihe district do not know him on the record. Mr Fisher was a member of the legislature in the second last session. He wat one of the fellows who stood by 1). E Thompson. The people of his district protested against his action without regaid to iff i 1 1 n s but Fisher pntd no at- id ion t' tl .fill. Til" reason was that he was bioiigbl by Thompson to betray bis coii'-tit i)f-ii t s. He sold out his people for the cash there was in it. S.nce letiring from the legi-li'.l ure be has built him a Hue homo in I 'hadion although he w as as pour .la a church mouse before Thomp son n night him up. l or many years Finiirr has been the sUorney f.-.r Mm cat.. He thieves in bis section of Nebraska and he has uniformly got "together a hand of wilnesscsand taught them how to perjure themselves to make out a defence. One of the constant crimes that Fisher com mits is the siilximalmn of perjury in criminal cases. But a year ago he was up iu Wyoming and got a voting fellow to commit -rjury. The oilier attorneys in the case wiltihiui were member of the W voming bar and dislnrrment proceed ings were takiiii iigair.sl tliein. They could not lake such proceedings against Fisher UrcHusc be was not a member of tlm Wyoming bar but be was arrested for subornation of p'-tjuiy and bound over to the district court and he only escaped by buying; up the young fellow who had comnulled perjury and who was sent to Ihe penitentiary forswearing to the false things that Fisher advised him to. Here is what the Omaha Bee, the leailiing republican newspaper of Nebraska wild at. th li-ue. "Douglas, Wyrniing. (Special Tele gram to the Bee.) At the NoVDinher tsrm of the district coiirt for Converse, county Eil Bench, in Ihe case of ihe slate against J. II. McNealy, swore differently , w fruui what lie did in the prelnniuiy hear ALL Love to buy good goods at the lowest price possible and tlie place to do this is at GERLACflS GEXERAL STORK. In clothing, Gents famishing. Goods, Boots and Shoes. We are ready to compete with the world, ; and the way to prove it, is to give us a trial. 'Come and see us any way and be social." GERLACH'S STORE- ing. The jury failed t.i agree in the first McNealey trial. In the second trial Beach swore as he did at the preliminary and told the court that .McNealey'sattor neys had told him it, would not he perjury. Mi.Nealey's lawyers were Allen G. Fisher, of Chadron, Nebraska,; Gewrge Walker, of Harrison and E.H. Dimbell, of Douglas Graphic fame. The court appointed a committee of attorney's and at once ad journed. The committee made its report, today, Beach's statement was corroborat ed. The court ordered disbarment pro feedings commenced against Dimbell and Walker and Sheriff Virden sued out a complaint againsl Fisher, Walker and Dimbell lor subordination. Fisher and Walker waived examination and were bound over to the next, term ol court in the sum of 500 00. Beach plead ed guilty to perjury and was sentenced lo eighteen months in the penitentiary. Di in tu 1 1 has not len arrested as yet. Fisher is one of hiulrcu's prominent attorneys." Fisher constantly procures false affi davits to Iw made and filed in court at bis borne in Chadron and this is notorious; in addition to this it is known and can be proven thai he has frequently offered and paid money to men to commit perjury and this fact has been proved on linn in Chadron and he has never gone on the stand to deny it, He has time and again forged the names of people to affidavit's in support of motions for new trials. He steals court files and mutilates records and does many things that have lauded other men in the penitentiary. Fisher i has Fwmdled clients with whom he lias done business out of thousands of dollars of money and for this money judgments have Is-en entered ag.Mnst turn at Chadron and are now on record there and unpaid. If iin one doubts t bat these judgments n.-e against Fisher just write to the clerk of the district court at Chadron. The rank and file ct the republican party in the 15 judicial district would never have consented to Ihe nomination ol 1-isher for the important position of district judge. His nomination was brought abeut by the tshrewd manipula tion of Fisher himself with the all power I ul assistance of the Elkhorn Railroad's attorney's and pass distributors headed by the chief convention fixer, R R. Dick son of Holt county. Dickson's chief clients in Ibis district, are cattle rustlers. Willi Judge Harrington and VVeslover on Ihe bench cattle rustlers have ceased operations as they are promptly tried and when convicted were given such senten ces as made the business nf cattle sleal ih). very unpiyiular. With a corrupt man like Fisher or a weak and pliant in competent like Wills on the bench Mr. Dickson's clients would be treated to such consideration as would make cattle I nst ling, hog and horse stealing again a common practice iu tins district as il was before dyvsof Harrington and Wcst over on the disl net bench. The voters of this district do not want such a con dii ion of affairs in this district any more than the rank and file of he republican party wanted such a man as Fi-.ber nominated. To assist in ihe election of Fisher and Wills these three Dickson. Kinder, and Wills met in Dickson's ollice conspired, planed and dictated thuir long and malicious tissue of false hoods that they had printed in the Frontier, and it was these three who directed ibe mailing of that dirty news paper over this district. In the face of these conditions the Independent feels called upon lo tell who this man Fisher is, and also to loll the voters the kunl ol men who are backing him in bis race for a position his last record as a lawyer and a citizen would disgrace. W. T. Wills. The Independent desires to Is- perfectly fair and has no disposition to put Mr, Wills in the thieving category Willi Dickson and fisher. Some things might lie said truly Mint, would not bo very pleasant reading for him, but the hide pendent wnnts to make it plain that 1he j star thieves who arc trying to work ruin in this district, ate Dickson and Fisher. The people of Uns district need men who are good lnyis, A poor lawyer on the Itench will be constantly reversed and Ibe oile put to lienvy expetisc in Ihe re trial of cases.

This is is a matter welk i known to all ofUie residents ofBoyil county. He has no qualification, what ever for the office of oistncl judge and it would be a misfortune to Mr. Wills lie cause be would be constantly humiliated by the knowledge that, he was not quali fied to (ill the ollice of district judge. It was because be is weak that Dickson van willing to have him nominated. DicLsnit thought that he could Use him and even if he could not do it alone by the assis tance of Fisher they could control the action of Mr. Wills. He has remained at home the most of the campaign and wherever he lias gone the people generaf I y declare that Mr. Wills does not know enough to he district judge. The friends of JuJges Westover and llarrintiton ,. .vould gladly pay Mr. Will.V expenvs to . have 1 1 1 ii i go over Ihe district and let Ibe , people get a look at him.
