If you desire the balance of Neb raska to know that Sherman county I is still on the map, vote ior Ojendyk \ and StneUer «nd get in line again. “Honest 8i Holcomb” is it? Say! Is this the same fellow that gobbled the house rent and winked his left optic when Kdmisten was re-count k ing the ballots? When did ;ou dts L cover this streak of honesty Brother? Of course you still remember when you fallows refused to show him courtesy enough to eooort him to the train after he made a speech for you, now its “Honest 8i.” Poor old Si. If he's honest lie must fee 1 awful lonesome. Another great political struggle is upnu us and the people of Nebr., will soon be called upon to express their preference at the poles for those who shall frame our destinies for the next several years. This question demands our most sincere consideration, and should he weigh ed with care before we cast our bal lot. During the past decade cmbrac ing the time which fusion has reign ed supreme in Nebraska, there does not seem to he a single act coming from the capital that our state can point to with pride, and even the crowning iniquity of refusing to rec ognize the worth and patriotism of of our boys in tightiDg the battles of our country has been commited by our chief executive who now, with supreme gaul asks for another term. Kvery voter in the state can but con sider this iusult to our boys a just cause for turning down the man offer ing it, and the disgraceful rows in all our state institutions during the time which they have controlled them should condemn the whole outtit. The next term of our legislature will be oue of greater importance to our state and country ttian is usual lv the case. Two United States senators will lie elected, and we must decid by our ballots in Novem ber wlntber we desire to semi those to represent us Ht Washington who will bring honor to our state by standing by old glory and assisting the President iu his w ise aud pat riotic course, or by sending tw > who will assist in disgracing the fair name of our stale according to the dictates of democratic Are eaters. To avoid the rocks and shoals of ifusion democracy, lei every voter who desires to redeem our state from this fusion unpatriotiaui, east their vote fa»r Tb*o, oji>ud'k f»*r tteprs*eBtatUe and for II.

I W. II Williams, ihe republican candidate fur county attorney has a war record that < ught to command the vote of every old soldi* r who has the opportunity to cast a ballot in this county next November. He was in the service four years t*nd leu months. He served first iD company (J , 8U1 111. Infantry for over two years and then was transferred to the 5th IJ. 8. Heavy Artillery, Colored, of which he was First Lieutenant and Adj*. afterwards bteveted to .Major, numbered I7u0 strong. It Into a btld of 17 pieces anil a corps < f 24 drummers and lifers. After over four jears of actual service, Mr. Williams, becoming tired and warn out with continual and active work, tendered his resignation to the Ad jnlant General V. 8, Army at Wash iugton, but the high esteem in which he was held caused Dept. Cumtnder to urge him to continue on which h« did until the final discharge of his regiment. His commission is dated May 10, I860, for faithful and efficient service during the war which was sign ed by President Andrew John son. Following is the resignation which he forwarded to Washington and the reply which he recievcd: IIkahocahtehs Noutbf.hs Duty., Mihh Jackson, Ml*s., Nov. loth, it'Oft. TuAIMITANT <1K.NK.KAI, f. 8.

It 1m highly important that, every Republican nutl every one wli> he llcves in continuing prosperity, in maintaining good government, Mljiiiild go to the polls and vote on election day. This i.s ail Unit is required to place Nebraska in that position where all the world will know that she has shaken off Populism ami has taken a position in the ranks of Republican states. The danger is that the farmer* and laborers, who constitute a largo per cent of Nebraska s total vole, will he so busily engaged wilh their work and in such peace of mind that they will forget or neglect to do their duty on election day. Put, one tiling is cer tain, and Hint is, that the farmer wito is getting good prices for his stock a.nl crops and the la borer who is getting good wages and plenty of work, can not, expect tins to continue unless they go to the polls In November and vote for the candidates of the party that lias made these blessings possible. You cannot go to the polls and vote the Republican party out of power and then expect good times to continue. The Democratic party brought on the hard times. Free trade and determin ation to contaminate the standard cur rency of the nation frightened capital, drove money Into exile, si! need enter prise, demoralized international com merce and dually precipitated wide spread suffering and distress. To vote the Democratic party back into power would he to bring hack hard times. This is just as certain as it is that night follows day. The farmer iuu-1 sow in order to reap, and the laborer must toil in order to earn money. Neither can do ether wise and expect satisfactory results. So, too, they mud Isdii vote with that party that give s them pm*pi lily In order f r them to have p: -per u They cannot vote wrong and expect tii'a g- to he right.

Their answer to this is abuse of Re publicans, but abusing Republican* will hardly satisfy tho taxpayers, who will have to pay the bill. The funionists have boasted of the r ving they have made in managing the state Institutions. Four year.- ago they pointed to the amount asked and appropriated by tho legislature. Two years ago they tame to the legislature with n demand for more money than h. I ever before been required, and xs itli a large deficiency and any number of a. paid claims. The legislature two years ago, not only made a large de ficiency appropriation, but appro priated more than $11,000,000 for the two years ending in 1901, Ah this has been squandered and it will require $ I‘>0,000 more to pay unpaid bills and labor claims. The shortage in the penitentiary fund alone will amount to at least $k‘5,ooo. There are at least 11 institutions that will come in with shortages ranging .-ill the way from mi.iumi to $lo,ooo, amt in some cases it will lie even larger.
