C.KO. W. THIN!;:
Democratic unil Peoples Independent Cnndlduto
For Trcaaut or Webster County ,
Red Cloud, Nebraska,
1 uctober zi, l'Ji-i.
To The Voters of Webster County:
T nm n candidate for Countv Treasurer of our county. I have met many ot you, but as
time is limited, I could not meet all and I am writing you in order that you may know my views
in regard to this office.
I believe that the office should be conducted with the least expense possible to the taxpayers
and at the same time givi the county efficient service.
A county officer is a servant of the people. The County Treasurer of Webster county is
allowed $2,000 per year and 51,000 additional for a deputy. Now I have been a business man of
this county for fourteen years and have had experience enough to conduct this office for the
52,000 allowed the treasurer without any extra salary for a deputy.
This letter is a plcdtre and a written contract ty we with the inters and taxpayers ot our
county, that should they see fit to elect me their servant that no other salary shall be received
or asked for by me except the $2,000, thus saving the county $i,oo per year now paid fj tie
tiiAiajirs o Webster County for running this office.
The law of Nebraska does not permit a man to be County treasurer for more than four
years at one time. This is a good provision, as the law recognizes the fact-lhat the books of this
(office should be subject to examination by those not connected with the office, as so much of Ihe
people's money is entrusted to the treasurer. If the voters elect me to this office, I shall keep
the letter as well as the spirit of this law and not remain as a deputy, but leave the books for
others Vo examine.
1 have been a resident of this county over twenty-five years, and am a free-holder in the
county. If elected I shall devote my entire time to the office and work for the interests of the
taxpayers. Any support you give me will be appreciated.
Yours very truly,
GEO. W. TRINE.

To the Voters of the Fifth District:
President Wilson has kept congress "on the Job" as no other prcsldont
hat ever done. This has been cauBcd partly, at least, by conditions which have
confronted no other congrecs In recent years. I have believed It to be my
duty to "stay on the Job" with him, and, whether you re-elect re or net, I
can conscientiously say that I have been one of lees than a scoro of cong-eo'
men almost continually answering roll call. Wherever It has been poaslbl
for mo to do so I have aided the precldcnt and the members of his cabinet
This has been especially true of the administration's efforts to free Itself froi
high prices on armament, etc. I have aloo been greatly pleased to upho
lilm in his neutrality policy.
In substantiation of the above statement there Is submitted the tes.
inony of others. The United Press, an Independent, non.polltlcal newtgatl
ring association, on Friday last, carried the following news account from It
Washington bureau:
"Washington, Oct. 23 (Dy United Press) Representa.
tlve Barton, of Nebraska, missed but one roll call of the pres
ent session of congress according to the report of the ssrgeant
of arms today while working on the proposal for docking
salaries of members for absence without excuse. Represen
tative itcne, of Illinois, and Representative Morgan, of 0"'v
noma, tied for second place, they having been absent only
twice."
nut tnia "remaining on the Job" has made It Impossible for r:b ace al
ef the people In my district before the election. In fact I shall b- able to c-c'
but very few, and I am taking this method of appealing to you f r your vote
i iif in your opinion, i nave served my district faithfully, may I r. t " pe td
recolve that approval which every ccnccientlcus rran prises, arij viuii
will certainly value most highly?
. I slnccrc'y regret that I have been unable to be In the field, and, v.-hcrt
challenged, to meet my opponents or crlfcs, and their statements. To cne
of these criticisms I wlch here briefly to addrets myself. It hn3 come to mi
that opponents are urging that I am not a property holder of any consider
able proportions. Comparatively, perhaps, I have been less fortunate In
this rccpcct than tits average congressman; but the tax records In my home
county of Hall chow that I annually py almost $100 In taxes and I believe
that, could I meet you, and speak with you about th's matter face to face, I
could convince ycu, If you are not already convinced, that a careful guardN
....unship of the Interests of my district and Its people In Washington dees not
at all depend upon a large fortune In property or a voluminous bank account.
Somehow I feel confident that you will not permit my absence, In Itself
work to my Injury, and that I can safely leave the matter In your hands.
Very respectfully,
SILAS R. CARTON,..
