JOHN C. MARTIN
* Central City, Neb.
Vl. Candidate for Election on the Non-partisan Judiciary ballot
For Supreme Judge
MR. MARTIN is 56 years of age. was born and reared at Pittsburg. Pa.,
where he read law for four years prior to coming to Nebraska. He
was educated at Wooster University, Wooster, Ohio, and Lafayette
College at Easton, Pa.
He came to Nebraska in 1S83 and first located at Columbus, where he
practiced law until 1885 when he moved to Merrick County, Neb. He has
devoted his entire time and energy to the practice of the law in this state
ever aince, excepting during the years of 1S99 and 1900 when he was legal
adviser of the auditing department of the United States located at Havana,
Cuba, under the military occupation of Cuba.
As evidence of his conception of the duties of the office to which he
aspires, and for the purpose of advising the electors of Net : aska as to his
conduct in that office if elected, he announces the following
PLATFORM
• Equality before the law.
Remove the law’s vexatious delays.
- _ Substantial justice unhampered by technicalities.
- __ Purify the courts by severe punishment for perjury.
No politics or favoritism known on the bench.
“To do the right as God gives me to see the right.”
Would appreciate your support and will strive to merit your confidence
That campaign claptrap about Presi
dent Wilson “keeping us out of war’’
■is more or less ridiculous in the face
of known facts.
After President Wilson had sent the
American marines ito Vera Cruz, act
ually invading that country and hav
ing several of our solders murdered.
General Carranza, cool and deliberate,
made this announcement to the world;
“I wish to keep Mexico out of war,
but above all I am determined to keep
the United States out of war. I will
not let the innocent Americans be
dragged into war by Mr. Wilson.**
So there you are. All this time an
effort has been made to convince the
people that Woodrow Wilson had
“kept us out of war.” when it was
that bewhiskered old denizen down in
Mexico that kept Mr. Wilson from
dragging us into war.—Pawnee Repub
lican. .
We did a little blinking the other
day when the Germa U-boats kicked
up the spray on the Atlantic coast.
But life is too short for blinking, and
here’s for another snooze.

Don't forget that Christmas days
are again drawing near. Dont' forget
that merchants in this town have the
goods that you want to buy for those
Christmas days. Don't forget that
every dollar you spend with a local
merchant remains in local circulation
and enriches the community just that
much. Don't forget that every dollar
you spend outside of this town remains
outside and decreases the money in
local circulation just that much. Don’t
forget that an advertisement of a lo
cal merchant in this paper is an indi
cation that the merchant is prepared
to “make good' 'or he would not resort
to publicity in soliciting your trade.
Don't forget the good advertiser is
generally a ‘‘live wire.” and that live
wires are better than dead ones.

the confidence of his many friends
deeply interested in his selection for

years been engaged in a practice
that has served to identify him as
an exceptional man. He has never
been classified as an office seeker,
his devotion to his work commanding
his consentrated effort, and his pres
ent entry may well be termed com
pulsory on the part of those who be
lieve he is the man for the place.
Naturally endowed with the qualities
of a leader, he has taken an active
interest in all local, state and national
questions, with the result that the
people of Merrick county find deep
gratification in the knowledge his
competency is recognized through
out the state as well as at home.
Fifty-six years of age. he has acquired
that efficiency that comes only with
a life of active practice, and \ret he
retains that vitality essential to the
full performance of the high office
to which he aspires.

is the twentieth century
means of settling disputes.
In time, Arbitration should supplant war in deciding
differences between great nations. Acceptance of the
principle of Arbitration will render great industrial
strikes impossible'—and even minor differences will
come to be settled by this means. Impartial judges can
be counted upon to render fair decisions.
I o impartial judges of roofing, we will always b©
willing to leave decision as to the comparative merit's
of roofings, confident that intelligent investigation will
result in a decision for
Certain-teed
Roofing
An investigation into methods of manufacturing would show that
only the best quality of rooting felts is used in CERTAIN-TEED
roofing. This is thoroughly saturated with a blend of soft asphalts—
the formula of the General’s Board of Expert Chemists. It is then
coated with a blend of harder asphalts, which forms an impervious
coating and prevents the inner saturation from drying out.
This explains why CERTAIN-TEED outlives ordinary roofing, and
why it is possible to guarantee it fur 5, 10 or 15 years, according 'o
Pb’ (1, 2 or 3). The responsibility of the world’s largest manufacturer
cf roofings and building papers is behind this guarantee; which i»
conservative, as experience proves that CERTAIN-TEED outlives
the period of guarantee.
The General makes one third of America’s supply of asphalt -oil
roofing. His facilities are unequaled, and he is able to produce th©
highest quality roofing at the lowest manufacturing cost.
CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in a slate-surfaced shingles.
There is a type of CERTAIN-TEED for every kind of builling,
with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky-scraper to the smallest
residence or out building.
CERTAIN-TEED is sold by responsible dealers all over the world.
