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.

In reference to the Non-partisan

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
