Halner has bees for many yeara eae of the leadtag republicans ia 'Nebraska. He represented the Fourth Nebraska district in two terns of the national eoagreso. Ia a recent statement as to the dutlea of a cltiten in the present political cam palgn, Judge Halner said: "My duty points mo to the casting of a vote which will do tho most harm possible to the vaulting ambition of Roosevelt and all of his kind. I never did such a thing before, but this year I shall vote a democratic ticket that is to say, I shall not vote for any re publican who is in tho least Inoculat ed with the bull moose poison. I would vote for the Taft electors If I could see any show for Taft to carry Nebraska, but I know the fight In Nebraska will bo between Roosovclt and Wilson, and in the face of such a situation every lover of tho republic should cast' his vote for Wilson." That's it exactly. The fight In Ne braska Is between Wilson and Roose velt. A Nebraska voter who desires to be In the fight must choose between Roosevelt and Wilson. Republicans of the Judge Halner kind are loyal to President Taft, but they .realize that he Is hopelessly third In the race, and for that reason they will vote for Wil son, regarding him sh preferable to the bull mooso candidate tome Points of Difference Betwsea Party Rocordo In Nebraska In Democracy's Favor. i . Nebraska democracy submits to the votera of the state the best ticket ever aemlnated, every candidate standing upon the oleaaestcut aid oat , progressive platform aver framed by any political party la tho history of Nebraska. The platform neither minces nor evades; it deals di rectly with vital problems of reform. It Is not a mass of gllttortng general ities. It pledges the democratlo party to Insurance reform, to reform in tax ation, to reform In prison manage ment,, to reform in management of nthsr aintA institutions, to tho enact !ment of Just labor legislation, to tho enactment of a "blue sky" law, and It specifically sots out what it means to) do and In words that can not be mlsln terpreted. In proof ot its sincerity the democracy ot Nebraska points to) Its record for having faithfully kept Ita every promise to the voters of Ne ibraskja. ARE YOU IN EARNEST There aro more than ono hundred thousand mon In Nebraska who carry policies In the fraternal insurance so cieties. These men have said by their action in paying for fraternal Inuur ance that tjiey do not desire tho Insur ance department of the state of Ne braska to bo influenced by the old-line life insurance companies. Well, here we are, faee to faco with a chance to see whether or not the mombors of the Highlanders, the A. O. U. W., the Woodmen of the World, the Modern Woodmen and kindred societies are in earnest in this matter. At the election la November the people will' have a chance to put into the oSee of state auditor a real Mend of fraternal in surance. Remember that the state auditor of Nebraska la always In posl tfea to (dew grief or eacowagemeat to fraternal taauraaee. One of the eaadi datoa far state. auditor to a real Mead of few tsraai taearaaca. it elected he win not gt-r the old-HM ovmpaaiM the worst of K, but he aura will aet permtt tho old-Hirers to give the fra terafla tho worst of the 'situation, fa this state. You'men who carry frater aal 'taavranoe ought to get your eyea pea to your owa Interests. If you eaa elect Henry C. Richmond aa atato ,edlaW, then fraternal Insurance wirf .have a show la Nebraska. Ai yoa ta jearaestT Tour vote for state auditor 'wai ahow whether you have been la earnest in your claim of friendship for fraternal Insurance, or whether yoa have been playing horse with a serl .0110 question. Make a aote of It, boys, '.Hoary C. Mohmond la a candidate for state auditor. Henry C. Richmond id 'the Mead of fraternal taauraaee. That ought to bo enough. "The best governor Nebraska eve had" is the common expression in rot Wring to Ashton C. Shallenberger, democratic candidate for United .States senator. The faithful ssrvant Is the one who deserves recognition and promotion. Governor ahallenber. ,ger never rode Into office upon a fraudulent vote; he never had to cry "fraud" In order to cover up his own 'fraudulent election. Ho nover made a 'grandstand pretense of opposition to gag rule, only to turn around and vote to put the chief exponent of gag rule back Into power. He has been a mllit tant democrat all hlB life, never a sua 'don convert to somo now-found Ism with a view to securing office. He is one ot the ploneor advocates ot real reform, with a record of something more than Up service. ir "Billy" Eastham Is elected com .missloner ot publlo lands and build ings he will not spend his official hours splitting hairs Infernally flue, bat will take a broad view of ale du ties.

Ho trlea to make his hearers believe that Joha H. Morehoad op posed all tho reform measures enact. lad by the 1907 legislature. When fronted by the fact that Mr. Morohead waa not a member of the legislature of 1S07, he attempts to explain by aaylng ho means that Morohead would have opposed them if he had been a member. Speaking of needed reforms, do you know of one more needed than reform of the Judiciary? A democrat ic legislature enacted a law provid ing for a non-partisan judiciary, and It waa vetoed by Governor Aldrlch. Aadrew M. Morrtsoy, democratlo rsaadldato for attorney general, has ibeea a working democrat over etaee he became a voter. Ho gflaed admla t'sioa to tho bar by dint of'worklag hla jway whllo etudyiag. Ho haa gained a deserved reputation for ability aa aa ;attoraey, aad hla obaracter Is abovo reproach. Mr. Morrteeey has neve yielded to tho ambition for ofleo to tho extent that ho turned his political coat to secure aa office. Tho law forblda a Judge to alt la any case in which be waa, before ele vated to tho bench, employed, or la 'which he haa a personal Interest But Secretary of State Walte, a candidate for re-election and personally interest ed In the result of the protest filed by 'Andrew M. Morrlssey, did not hesitate 'to decide in that case, although he was vitally and personally Interested. You do not have to make two' guesses 'as to how Walte decided. R. V. Clark, democratlo candidate for superintendent of public instruc tion, is an experienced educator. He rellzes the need of agricultural and industrial training In tho public schools, and the elimination of a lot 'of useless fads and isms and oologies. Ho favors making the public schools of benefit to the averago child Instead of making them of especial benefit to a few children. He Is advocating needed reforms In the public school systom, and ho doscrves the support and co-operation of every thoughtful parent. Two lawyers and a physician now constitute tho railway commission, Tho republican candidate for com missioner Is an editor, Tho democratlo candidate, Clarence E. Harroan, is a traveling salesman. By experience he has learned something about rates and service. Ho represontB those who iiay freight ratos. The commission needs at least one man who knows something about what the general public needs In the way ot service, and what It Is entitled to In the way of reduced rates. See The Chief Office For Your Sale Bills. Aldrlch haa made a number of charges against John H. Morehead, but to date Aldrlch hasat charged Morehead with having bribed a woman to make a false affidavit in a dlvorcn The law requiring tha state treas urer to invest the permanent school fund in state, county, school district and municipal bonds, also requires .that the .state treasurer purchase these bonds direct, not through brok ers. Will State Treasurer ueorge ex .plain how the bonds of the city of Valontlno camo Into the possession ot the permanent school fund? And tho bonds of the city of Wymoro? And some others that might bo mentioned?1 Tho democratic platform adopted by tho Grand Island convention moans something. J W. Kolloy, democratic candidate for secretary of state, iins earned tho sobriquet of "Platform" Kolley becauso of his Insistence upon the faithful carrying out of platform plcdgoB. And that's tho kind of men Nebraska needs In office. Governor Aldrlch Is such a great stickler for "reform" and for compli ance with the constitution that ono wonders how it came about that he actually besought tho legislature to .further violate the constitution by 'making an appropriation to pay hla 'meat and grocery bill. 1 Reform In the management of state Institutions has been a crying need ifer years.
