The name of Judge B. O. Hostet
ler of Kearney is brought forward as
just about the right material from
which to make the next governor of
Nebraska, from the republican point
of view. Having published a news
paper in Judge Hostetler’s judicial
district for nearly twelve years,
where he is known as the business
judge, and where he is so popular
that no one can be found to run
against him, and where following his
name on the ballot will be found all
the party cognomens, we wish to be
plainly understood as being tor Bruno
O. Hostetler first, last ;uul ail the
time, in event he can be persuaded
to give up his life-lease as judge of
his district to become governor. And
if he were as well and favorably
known over the state as he is in his
own judicial district, all (the home of
Billy Sunday’s arch enemy) couldn’t
beat him. Governor Hostetler would
make an ideal executive.—Crawford
Courier.
In 1916 the democratic national
committee is without a secretary and
a considerable number of its mem
bers want to discharge the chairman.
But the committee does not lack a
humorist. He is the gentleman
who composed the official comment
of the committee on this year’s elec
tion results. They mean merely,
said this document, that the progres
sives and the republicans are re
united. Nothing more is needed to
assure republican victory in 1916.
Wilson received the electoral vote of
forty-one states in 1912 and had 435
votes in the electoral college. He
had a majority support in only four
teen states, with 152 electoral votes.
In the other thirty-four states the
combined republican and progressive
strength far outnumbered the democ
racy, and Wilson won by a plurality.
The reunion of the progressives and
republicans in 1916 is made certain
by the elections of 1914 and 1915, and
means that Wilson will have his
fourteen states—the solid south—
and no more.
During the first eight months of
1913, when a republican tariff law
was in force, we exported to Germany
goods to the value of $187,400,000.
In 1914, under present democratic tar
iff law, we exported, for the corres
ponding eight months, goods to the
value of $156,000,000. Today the only
gateways to Germany are Holland,
Norway, and Sweden. To these
three countries in 1913, first eight
months, we exported goods to the
value of $101,000,000, in 1914, $83,
000,000, while for 1915 they rose to
$198,000,000. Secretary Redfield
would have you believe this great in
crease in 1915 was due to the admir
able efforts of the Department of
Commerce to get foreign trade, but he
ignores the fact of a falling off of
$31,000,000 of exports to Germany in
1914, below the previous year, or of
$18,000,000 to Holland, Norway, and
Sweden. Probably the American pub
lic is just as wise to the situation as
is Great Britian.
Occasionally this paper makes a
mistake and the infallible reputation
that our friends are wont to build
up for us crumbles and falls. When
we do find ourselves in error, typo
graphically, categorically or other
wise, we are surprised and deluged
with the number of queries we re
ceive as to how it happened. As a
matter of fact, we cannot compre
hend any reasonable excuse for our
laxity—an editor of a newspaper
ought not to make mistakes. How
ever, out of the mass of criticism
and friendly jesting it is a source of
considerable satisfaction to the editor
to know that his paper is i;ead. Just
so long as his paper is faultless and
errorless he hears\neither words of
approval nor condemnation, but an
occasional error brings out the fact
quite strongly that his paper is read
and he must content himself with
the criticism as a deserved and be
coming compliment.—Polk Progress.
Just why should George Burkitt
worry over his job as assistant post
master of the little village of Win
petka, 111.- Getting fired by the post
office department for commenting
adversely upon the engagement of
the president and Mrs. Galt, and then
being promptly and emphatically re
instated by the president himself,
has made him a national figure and
is rapidly qualifying him for stage
life or the lecture platform. And
really, now, if Mr. Wilson wants to
marry Mrs. Galt and the lady is will
ing, whose business is it.? And if
Mr. Burkitt wants to exercise the
American right of free speech in
gentlemanly language, whose business
is that? Seems to us the daily press
has been making a whale out of a
tadpole. But then again, that’s their
business, and they are experts in
their line.
Twice since he has been at the
head of the treasury department, Sec
retary McAdoo has changed the
method of making the daily tresasury
statement so that it shows a larger
net balance than it would show under
methods previously in use. But even
this has not proven a sufficient
remedy for the depleting effects of
democratic legislation. Mr. McAdoo’s
own statements show that during the
week ending November 18, the net
balance dropped almost $10,000,000.
It will take a lot of scheming to study
out bookkeeping stunts that will
cover up a record like that.
The New York “Times” sees from
the elections a reunited opposition to
the democratic party, and warns Mr.
Wilson that “it will not do to repeat
such perilous blunders as that of the
seamen’s act, or to persist in such ad
ventures as a government-owned mer
chant marine.” It also counsels him
to take counsel of men of experience,
not excluding republicans. These ad
monitions will fall on deaf ears.
After discussing the partial restora
tion of prosperity, a democratic paper
says: “Time heals all wounds.” Per
haps, but there is an old saying that
‘a burned child avoids the fire." The
wounds suffered by American industry
will undoubtedly be healed by time,
though many a scar will remain. But
the injured will not forget.
A news dispatch from Helena,
Montana, quoted Secretary McAdoo
as saying, “we have not had any real
prosperity in the Uuited States for
ten years.” This is evidently an error
in transmission. Assuming the Sec
retary to have been trying to tell the
truth, he must have said “two years”
instead of "ten years,” as is reported.
Governor Fielder, the democratic
executive of New Jersey, has no illu
sions. The election this year means,
he says, that “New Jersey is still a re
publican state.”

DEER IN NEBRASKA
The capture of a red deer in the
Wood river valley was reported. Rollo
Crosby caught the animal on Wednes
day morning after it had been roaming
up and down the valley for days, at
tracting the wonder and attention of
many farmers. On Wednesday it gath
ered with Crosby’s cattle and has
taken a fancy to its new mates, com
ing up to the house with them and
feeding freely in the Crosby pastures.
No attempt has been made to molest
the animal and as far as Crosby is
concerned he is willing to “spare it
the feed.”—Kearey Hub.

western beef line and prices held up
very nearly as well as last week. On

the market was very slow and prices
were generally lower. Cows and heif
ers were also slow to 10@15c lower

cattle and feeding steers except
choice yearlings were dull and ID®
15c lower. With liberal receipts and
extremely bearish advices from out
side points there was a weak under
tone to the whole market.

JUST THE RIGHT PRESENT.
Don't take chances in the matter of
Christmas presents. You don’t want
yours, like so many others, to be re
ceived with indifference or worse, and
ten days after Christmas to be cast a
side and forgotten.
You take no such chances in giving
The Youth’s Companion for a year.
Did you ever know of a home in
which it came amiss, or of one in
which it was not conspicuous on the
library table or in some one’s hands all
through the year?
It is worth while to make a gift of
that sort, and it is worth while to re
ceive it too, for The Companion illus
trates the best traits in American life
in its stories and sketches, upholds the
best standards in its articles and other
contributions, and combines the practi
cal and informing with the entertain
ing and blood-stirring.
If you do not know The Companion
as it is to-day, let us send you one or
two current issues free, that you may
thoroughly test the paper's quality.
We will send also the Forecast for
1916.
Every new subscriber who sends
$2.00 for the fifty-two weekly issues of
1916 will receive free all the issues for
the rest of 1915 and The Companion
Home Calendar for 1916.

A Sellers Kiteheneed and 26-Piece Set of
Oneida Community Silverware Both Na
tionally Known and Approved.
A Saving on Both of $7.75
'T'HIS is one of the very few opportunities that
occur in a life-time to secure two such unques
tionably good values together.
Sellers Kitcheneeds are known by every one who has ever
seen them to represent thoroughly and in EVERY detail
every requirement that could be made of a kitchen cabi
net. They are built, finished and equipped to perform a
labor, step and time-saving service for a life-time.
For a limited time, while our allotment lasts, it will be
possible to secure a 2(J-Piece Set of Ten-Year Guaranteed
uneula Community Silver
ware with every Sellers
Kitcheneed sold, for $2.45.
This set is composed of:—
6 Knives
6 Forks
6 Dessert Spoons
6 Teaspoons
Sugar Shell
Butter Knife
Both of these articles are nation
ally known and approved by
housekeepers. To find the two
together offered at such prices is
an opportunity not to be over
looked. For if you were to at
tempt to buy the silver set, for
instance, in any retail store it
1 would cost you $10. The prices
here give you an idea of what
it means to get the two together.

ANNOUNCEMENT.
A special cut-price mail rate of only
$3.50 a year is made for the Daily and
Sunday State Journal with colored
comic section and magazine. With
out the Sunday paper the mail rate
will be only $2 a year. The State
Journal price heretofore has been $5
a year for Daily and Sunday and $4
without the Sunday.
The publishers believe it is possible
to give its patrons the benefit of Cut
ting out traveling solicitors’ salaries,
hotel bills, railroad fares and other
expenses. Therefore these new rates.
A sufficient increase in the business
should make these special rates per
manent.
There will be the same expenditure
of money and brains in producing The
Journal in the future that has given
it the reputation of being the most
ably edited and most carefully pre
pared newspaper in Nebraska. The
Journal receives the full Associated
Press reports, has its special Wash
ington representative, and hundreds
of local correspondents throughout
the state. It has a corps of special
writers who produce- articles upon
subjects of which they have real
knowledge. The Journal is Lincoln’s
only morning paper.
It has always been the endeavor of
The State Journal to serve the people
of Nebraska and its efforts have now
the approval of thousands, its circu
lation being at its highest point at
this time. It is especially fitting now
to reach out and include thousands of
others in our list of readers. The
character and cleanliness of a paper
is much to be considered in its admis
sion to the home.
These new prices are but little more
than usually charged for a good week
ly newspaper and hundreds of fami
lies which are not now subscribers to
a dally will feel able to have one since
they can have the best for $2 a year
or $3.50 including Sunday.
There are many in the state who,
while perferring The Journal, have
felt compelled to take cheaper dailies.
These can now have their favorite pa
per, because now the “best” is also the
“cheapest.” News dealers throughout
the state will deliver The Journal,
week days and Sundays, with the spe
cial Sunday features, for only ten
cents a week. Address, STATE
JOURNAL, Lincoln, Neb.
