' Shall We Discard bed Option and Adopt State Prohibition ? I Under the existing Local Option Law, it lies within the power of the citizens of any community in Nebraska to adopt local prohibition for their own city, town, or village. i In every community in this state absolute control over this ques tion lies in the hands of the majority of the voters. No interference from the outside is possible; nothing can thwart the wishes of the majority in the city, town or village, with respect to the question of license or no license. Many communities in this slate have availed themselves of the power granted to them under our Local Option Law, and have adopted local prohibition for their own community. Where there is a dominant LOCAL public sentiment in support of that policy, it is possible to make the no-license policy respected and obeyed! There arc, on the other hand, many communities in this state where it is the opinion of the majority of the citizens that the license policy is better adapted to their own community. Where that is the prevailing sentiment, the community is permitted, under our existing Local Option Law, to license the sale of alco'. holic beverages subject of course to the provisions and restric tions of the general state law. In neither case, is a policy forced on a community from without. The principle of Home Rule prevails'. It is now proposed to substitute for this policy of local self government, the policy of stale-wide prohibition. This prohibition policy is not intended for the relief of communities in which the no-license policy already prevails, but is designed to FORCE such a policy on other communities against their will. The result, as the experience of other states has abundantly established, would be disastrous in every city and town on which prohibition is forced. It means, where dominant local sentiment is opposed to prohibition, lax enforcement of the law, the dividing of such towns into bitterly.hos tile factions, the reign of the spy and of the in former, the rapid growth of crime and in the end it means higher taxes. Against the substitution of such a system for that under which Nebraska is now operating, everyone having the best interests of the people of this state at heart, should solemnly protest.

So many quca'lons have been asked In reference to the Non-partisan ticket, that I submit the following, which answers the questions usually asked. In 1913 the legislature enacted a law for the Non-partisan nomination and election of Judicial Officers. Tills In cludes all the Judges of all the courts, Supreme, District and County. The names of candidates for Judge are required to appear on a separate ballot, called the Non-partisan ballot. It will contain all the names of all the candidates for Judge. It will not con tain the names of any candidate for any office except Judge. There shall be no political or party designation of any candidate for Judge. Tne name of any candidate for Judge win not appear on the regular or gen eral ballot at all. A straight party vote for either party he a vote for any judge. ORDER TO VOTE FOR JUDGE, you go to the voting place the election officers should give you a Non-partisan ticket IN ADDITION TO the regular ballot. MARK A CROSS OPPOSITE THE NAME OF THE MAN YOU WISH TO VOTE FOR AS JUDGE FOLD YOUR BALLOT SEPARATELY AND GIVE BOTH IT AND THE REG MLAR BALLOT TO THE ELECTION OFFICER AT THE SAME TIME. IN ORDER TO VOTE FOR JUDGE AT ALL YOU MUST VOTE ON THIS SEPARATE NON-PARTISAN TICKET. LOOK FOR MY NAME THERE! Red Cloud, Neb., Aug. 25, 1916. L. H.
