Bryan asks the republicans to help
elect the democratic state ticket this
fall. Bryan is never modest in his
requests: but what will he promise
in return?
Gov. Aldrich threatens to oust the
county attorney of Douglass county
for being direlict in prosecuting the
fraudulent voting in that county at
the last election.
The iast two sessions of democrat
legislature increased appropriations
nearly three miliions of dollars. Mr.
Bryan did not say anything about
that in his speech here.
Brer. Beushausen thinks he saw at
least fifteen hundred people out to
hear Bryan while here. Even a pro
hibition editor sometimes lays him
self under suspicion by seeing double.
One of our exchanges came to hand
last week with an article headed
“Brain Cells Developed." By taking
I a glance at its columns, one would
! never think it happened on that paper
A cartoon lately published, shows
j A unty Democracy standing over a
i cradle in which rests a baby labelled
“Progressive,” andshesays: “Oh. you
dear little thing: of course I'll adopt
you.” See the point?
i Governor Aldrich in his speacli at
I Superior on October 12th, asserted
that every piece of arganized and con
structive legislation placed upon the
statute books of Nebraska has been
. placed there by the republicen party.
Bryan urges the republicans to
nominate Lafollette president. Bryan
is always anxious for democratic su
premacy .lienee his anxiety for repub
1 licans to encompass their own defeat
it is always wise not to follow the
advice of your political opponents.
The Fremont Tribune of late date
tells of a resident who was out watch
ing the new comet when he avers the
tail suddenly broadened and a moment
later the head burst, emitting a mul
titude of stars. The Tribune does
not state the brand of chain light
ning. nor just what he struck his
head on in falling. *
We received a plea rant call last
Thusday morning from Mr. Frank P.
Hart, who is about to start a second
* paper at Sargent, and who is conclud
ing his arrangements therefor. It
seems there is quite an ill-feeling ni
that town against the editor of the
Leader among the business men,
which culminates in the second paper:
being started. The first number will
be issued shortly.
C. S. Eckert of Lincoln is the new
editor of the St. Paul Republican,
making his bow to the readers last
week. He promises well and we wish
for him success iu his new field of
labor Now we wonder how long the
dove of peace will hover over the ed
itorial sanctums of the Republican
and Phonograph-Press, and if the
dove stays just how long it will take
for the readers to get accustomed to
the new order of things.
It must be a novel and not al
together pleasant sensation to the
railroads to be obliged to ask the rail
way commissioner whether they can
add or take off trains on their roads.
The oUter day the Burlington officials
went before the commission to find
if it were willing for them to take
off two local trains on their line in
this state during the winter months.
A few yean ago the idea advanced to
Uiem that such would ever be the law
would have caused apopletic strokes.
The republican party, always the
party of progress, has given to Ne
braska Uie two-cent / passenger rate
law. the law prohibiting railroad
puses: Uie law insuring inspection
and uniform testa of dairy products;
Uie direct primary law; the pure food
law; the law compelling fifteen per
cent reduction of freight rates on
live stock, grain, lumber, coal, etc:
the law compelling twenty-five per
cent reduction of express rates; the
law providing for municipal taxactlon
of railway terminals; the employers
Uabelity Jaw; the law empowering
the state railway commislon to pro
hibit rebates, discriminations and
■pacial rates to corporations. Vote
Cor the party that does things.
A Campaign Canard
In this latter day few people pay
mueb attention to stories started by
the opposition to any man’s candi
dacy and the usual thing is to ignore
such reports, which, while having
little force, seem as prolific as in the
palmy days of rhoorbacks. Anent
such faulty stories, our attention is
called to a peculiarly exasperating
canard afloat regarding the candidacy
of F. M. Henry, republican nominee
for the office of county treasurer, that
he is walking round on crutches, for
which he has no use, the same being
done to create sympathy in his favor.
That this is manifestly unfair, even
cruelly so, we will relate again the
cause of Mr. Henry’s painful accident,
following with a letter from the emi
nent surgeon, Dr. Allison of Omaha,
as to the serious resultsarising there
from. Some weeks' since, Mr. Henry
was called to Iowa to adjust some busi
ness matters. Returning home, and
as he was changing cars at Cedar Rap
ids, Iowa, in alighting from his car
on a dimly lighted platform; he fell
across the tongue of a baggage truck,
sustaining an injury to his right knee
from which he was laid up for weeks
after reaching home and from which
he is at present a severe sufferer, and
necessitates the constant use of the
crutches so painful to the sensitive
ness of Mr. Henry's political oppo
nents. A few days ago, the injured
member seeming to gain little head
way and the sufferings from the in
jury causing sleepless agonizing hours
of pain, he went to Omaha and con
sulted Dr. C. C. Allison, everywhere
recognized as one of the nation's ex
perts in surgery, who submitted the
following report of lys diagnose of
the case:
Omaha, >ebr., Oct. li, 1911.—
Following my examination of one
F. M. Henry, who alleges injuries
to the right knee on the 2d day of
June, 1911, I beg to report that
the right knee measures fifteen
inches, and the left knee fourteen
and one-half inciies. The palpa
ble temperature of the right knee
is greater than the left; the chief
tenderness is over the upper ex
tremity of the tibia, and the con
ditions present, as I understand
them, are usually named trauma
tic 06teo-arthritis, involving also
the periosteum. On account of
the location, namely, the end of a
long bone, this ailment is usually
very slow in reaching convales
cence. and it is my opinion that
it will be many months before a
oomplete cure is established, and
it may be necessary surgically to
establish multiple puncture of
the bone for the purpse of drain
age. before a cure is attained.
Respectfully
• C. C. Allison, M. D.
We trust that Mr. Henry’s oppo
nents will not further traffic over his
condition nor seek to make political
capital out of his unfortunate phys
ical injury.
Bryan predicts success for the dem
ocratic state ticket. Bryan always
was a poor prophet.
Uncle Lou Williams could get no
end of letters of endorsement of his
candidacy for sheriff, but he does not
need them. His record as sheriff is
sufficient. He does not need to run
just sit down and keep possession an
other two years.
Clark Perkins, secretary of the state
railway commission, has resigned the
secretaryship and purchased the Au
rora Republican. Mr. Perkins was for
many years owner of the St. Paul Re
publican and later editor of the Au
rora paper, to which latter love he
returns. Mr. Perkins is one of the
most enterprising of Nebrasda’s young
newspaper men, and we are glad to
to have him back in the editorial
harness again. Jas. Schoonover, the
former Republican man is deputy oil
inspector and will put his entire time
in that work.

The State Ticket
Less than two weeks now intervene
till the fall election. One week from
next Tuesday, to make it more pointed
the voters of Nebraska will say who
they want for their public servants
for the coming two years, so far as
certain offices are concerned. In the
state at large, three judges of the su
preme court, two state regents and
one man to flu a vacancy in the
railway commissionership, caused by
death, constitute the sum total of
the state ticket. There is no reason
that will stand the light of invest
igation why J udges Rose and Letton
should not be returned to the positions
they have so ably filled. They have
made splendid business and ideal
jurists,and we believe the voters will
so register the 7th day of November.
For regents of the State University,
Messers. Haller and Lyford, the re
publican candidates, are men above
reproach, of large experience in ed
ucational matters, and will make
ideal regents and proper hands into
which to entrust tne interests of our
great University. For railway com
missioner, Thomas L. Hall of Lincoln
stands in the very highest esteem of
all and not a breath of suspicion of
corporate control can be claimed as
blown upon him, while even high in
democratic councils are to be found
those who claim the democratic can
didate is the railroad candidate and
if elected will besimply atool of those
corporations. Whether that be true
or not. where there is so much smoke
there lies a very strong suspicion of
tire beneath, and in electing Mr. Hall
the voters will eliminate the smoke
with possible fire to cause it.

If there is anything that tortures
an editor more than anything else it
is to publish a $15 or $20 obituary
notice about some old prominent cit
izen who never had the manhood to
take his county paper. Editors fre
quently put in such notices at re
quest of relatives and friends, but it
grinds them to eulogize a man to the

his home paper. A three line notice

Card from Prof. Currier
Rockville, Neb., Oct. 21, 1911.
To the Voters of Sherman County:
As I cannot leave my school duties
at Rockville to see each of you per
sonally, I wish to make you just a
short talk through the columns of
this paper.
Although I made an extensive can
vass before the primary, there is a
large number of voters that I have
not had tne pleasure of meeting. I
would like very much to meet all of
the voters of the county, but my
school duties require all of my time
I and attention, and ^s I will be in
school work here until the first of the
year, I will have no time for driving.
I desire to thank those who, with
! out regard to political affiliation,
; spoke kindly of me before the prima
| ry and urged my nomination.
I wish to repeat a lew of the state
ments that I made before the prima
ry in regard to nr, qualifications for
: the office of county superintendent.
I com ideated the high school course
; at Sioux Falls. S. I'ak. I received my
normal school education at Madison
' State Normal. Madison, So. Dak. and
at the Nebraska State Normal at
Wayne, of which school 1 am a grad
uate.
I have had several years' experience
as teacher in the country schools.
1 taught as principle of the Litchfield
Schools one year, as principle at Ash
ton two years, and principle of the
Rockville schools three years and 1
also taught as principle of schools in
Iowa and South Dakota before com
ing to Nebraska.
Having taught in both country and
graded schools, and I am in a position
to judge of and also to be in sympathy
with both graded arid rural teacher.
I am married and have four chil
dren and am thus better enabled u>
study childhood, and to work for its
development into useful citizenship.
It also enables me tosee the situation
from a parent's standpoint. The office
of county superintendent is one of
the most important among comity
offices, and one to which one is qual
ified only by actual experience.
One significant- circumstance is the
fact that I received the strongest
support from the people *nong whom
I have been working, as shown by the
votes in the primary election.
Thanking you in advance for any
assistance you mav render, and as
suring you if elected 1 shall do my
best for the children of the county
and for the upbuilding of our entire
educational system. 1 am
Very respectfully.
L. H. Currier.
Send fifty cents to the Lincoln State
Journal and you will receive that big
state daily all the rest of the year.
It will stop at the end of that time.
The Journal is different from other
state papers. It is independent, pro
?ressive and fearless, not in politics
or its owners or friends, does not
print liquor or nasty medical adver
tising, spends more money for state
news, all the associated Press, splen
did Washington service and does good
things for Nebraskans. It prints more
columns or reading matter than any
other state paper, has many high class
special features, and Bisby himself
is worth the fifty cents. Try it at
this cut price. Including Sunday
paper, 75 cents.
