GEORGE W. NORRIS
I ^
• *
At the coming primary, next Tuesday, an important question will
be answered. Do the eastern politicians and moneyed interests, or
. do the people of Nebraska nominate a candidate for United States
senator? (
Look at the character of the present campaign, and you will see
what interest is trying to defeat Norris. Money is being poured
out like water. Wherever possible, newspapers are being subsi
i dized. Professional politicians are being lined up. Financial
and political interests are frantically in the fight.
They want to get Norris out of the Senate because he cannot be
bribed or bossed. They want to get him off the chairmanship of
the great agricultural committee and put a pliant tool in his place.
Are the people of Nebraska awake to the dangers of this conspir
•» acy? Are they prepared to march to the polls next Tuesday and
register their protest against it? i
No more honest and earnest man than George Norris ever sat in
the United States Senate. No man more clearly understands the
problems that confront the agricultural west. He should be re
nominated by an overwhelming majority.
This is no time for the people to listen to the palaverings of west
ern candidates with eastern minds and selfish eastern capitalistic
interests. The contest between Norris ancLthe foes of the people
is the most vital now being waged in the entire west. The whole
country is waiting on the result.
• Do your duty—every voting member of the family. Go early to
the polls. When you stand up for Norris, you stand up for
Nebraska. 1
