There has been about CMO in fines alone collected Trom these cases for he county
and costs or about 475.00. besides'these fines and costs some defendants have been
sentenced and in others fines were imposed and-laid out. Some defendants were paroled.
These fines collected for the county greatly exceed all other costs paid out by the
county in all other prosecutions. Thus making the oilice more than self sustaining in
the matter of prosecutions. ,
Since the new prohibition law went into effect on May 1. 1917 I have prosecuted
27 cases for bootlegging, possession of liquor and drunkenness. Ot these il cases in
every cose that came to hearing the defendant was fined. In a few cases the line was
suspended by the court. In these cases there were 5610.00 in lines alone collected be
sides costs. "
The tax case of Webster County vs C. 1). & Q. Railroad Company was won in the
Supreme Court of Nebraska for tlye county. . .
During my term nothing has been paid by the county for other legal services.
I regret that the central committee of the honorable opposing7 political party saw
fit to make a personal allusion to my candidacy in letters recently mailed over the
county as I think in a lural election that personalties are out of place. However tins
committee is mistaken, for
Do not the voters want to know what attorney will act as their county attorney?
The county attorney has important duties that require the attention of some one
attorney.
I have boon a resident of southwestern Nebraska most of my life and am a grad
uate of the Nebraska College of law and also the University of Nebraska. I am- mar
ried and have three children.
I hope that I may merit your support at tho coming election.
Yours truly,
FRANK J. MUNDAY.

I am writing you as I will probably not get an opportunity to
see you personally.
I have served only one two-year term as your Sheriff and I am
now asking you to re-elect me believing that I am deserving of a
second term.
I have carefully carried out the law, as you elected me to do,
and have without fear or favor run down gamblers and bootleggers.
The office has been run with as little expense as possible the
last two years, and Ishall have no extra claim against the county
when my term of office expires.
My wife and I have licved in Vebster county 35 years and we have
raised a family of 10 children. We have one son who is now in the
United States Naval Service.
The office of Sheriff has had many important duties the last
two vears and I have Derformed them as .lustlv as I knew how.
The office of Sheriff is an important one and the duties demand
honest and fair dealings of the sheriff.
Hoping that I may have your support on November 5th, I am

Authoritaticc Opinions
President Wilson is calling for'ic
turn of a democratic majority does
not imply disloyalty, does not imply
lack of deep appieeialion for assis
tance rcndcicd by any political party
or person, lie follows logically the
precedents heretofore- established and
appiowd as follows;
, "lief usul to Mutr.fn tho president
will be read as a refusal to sustain
tho war." lloosevelt.
"If Y2id goes forth thnt tho people
of the United States are standing
solidly behind tho president ths-task
of the peace commissioners will be
easy." Harrison
"If wo fail to stand, b"y tho pteui-
dent now it is equivalent to saying we
repudiate the war and its results."
Senator Lodge
"Thn president appeals to the na
tional spirit. It is difficult to overou
timate tho supremo importance of
su.-taining the president." Senator
Penroo.
"The war (Spanish American war)
ramo while the republican adminis
tration was in power and must now
be settled by that administration.
What he, (tho president) wants is the
support of the bouse of representa
tives." Senator Forakor.
"Tho only way to secuie contin
ued unity of command in America is
to return a congress in full sym
pathy with the president." Secretary
McAdoo.
