SENATOR F , M , WIE'S ' TESTIMONY , John Lewis Stands Peer to the Best ! HIS FXCHLUiNCY AS A STUDKNT , SCHOLAR AND TEACHER. Honest , Upright and Truthful. . AttsLKV CHBONIOLB. ) I 1 I have known Mr. John Lewis ( / "wall for uiauy yoars. Whild jot a | * Btudent tu the high'sohool at Urnken ! Bow , before I know him personally 1 beard from bin teajl'or , Mtfid Hutohiuson , of IIID excellency as n student. Aliart Hulehmson was a successful t aohor , a broat-uhded ! : cultured woman. Sho.pnd 'cd a successful future for liar pupil and referred many timed to his superior natural talents. 1 have vraluhod bis dovolopomont olosoly from that 'time to the present and as a citizen of Ouster county I am proud of him aa I am of many others wLo by their own efforts are preparing to take their place among the inflnen- ' tial scholars and educators of our state. VVitbout depreciating in the in the least the natural ability or the education of other young men of our countyand I know and apro- ciato the friendship of many of them , I WISH TO STATE THAT JOHN LEWIS STANDS THE PEER OF THE BEST OF THEM. His record in the public schools , his standing in college indicates his excellence as a scholar and verify the predictions made by his teacher to raejnearly ton years ago. I am glad he ib a candidate for county superintendent of public schools not BO much' as a partizan as I am aa a patron public schools o Ouster county. The superinten dent is always emulated more or less by the young people of the oounty and it is important that he should bo worthy ot this emulation. A broad minded , well educated cultured man at the , head of our schools will do more to build up a sentiment among'our ' young people in favor of high education than any other one thing , and John Lowia meets these requirements. So much - for his education. Since leaving college he has taught - ght successfully in the schools of our county. Ho was one of the in- stinotors in school and toaohor'a in stitute iu Cuator oounty and also conducted the institute in Loup oounty. I have taken some pains to enquire among the toaohois of both Ouster and Loup counties and have boon gratiflod to learn that ho iias given universal satisfaction. I am a republican but not a strong partizan when the public schools of Ouster oounty aru to bo considered , We have had many good men in that office in'tbe past ( not ail of hem republican ) and having boon a teacher many years myself and hav ing a family to educate , I have tak en an interest in our public schools since I became a citizen of Ouster county. I havo.known intimately the superintendents fer the last fifteen years and I BELIEVE THAT JOHN LEWISIF ELEGT- ED , WILL HANK WITH THE BEST OF THEM. I have read the criticisms of the opposition papers , and as the law * yen ) say , they all seem to mo to be irrelevant and immaterial , Ho has been charged with not being a tax payer. This may be a crime in the eyes of some , but these of us who have paid our own expenses like Mr. Lewis , through high school and college , relize how difficult it is to get on the "heavy taxpayer" list. I believe Mr. Lewis has proven that ho has been a taxpayer , but the charge oven if true would not bo impottant. It has been charged that Mr. Lewis baa boon a populist. If this be true it has no importance whatever. Oorteinly no populist would consider this a crime. And to my republican friends I have only this to say , I have known Mr. Lewis well from boyhood. I be lieve him to bo honoat , upright and truthful. I have a personal letter from him written just after he re ceived the nomination. In this letter - tor he stated that after a careful study of the issues of the campaign ho oust his vote for William Mo- Kitiloy fitul that from that time at least la- has boon a firm boliovcr in the republican party , The last election' ' returns provo that Mr. Lewis was not only in reaching the conclusion , but that several hundred others had the same oxporionoo. As to hit ) itsiiiuuuti : Hu has never had a home any where except in Ouster county since his earliest childhood. The fact that that ho has taught school in an adjourning oounty does not establish a rcsi- and Professional Directorv , w ILLIS CADWELL Rasmus Anderson , J. C. M.ore Real Estate.

What wo as patrons of the public schools are interested in are those ijuestions : Is ho well educated ? Has he ezporeiouoo ns a toaoher ? lias ho a good moral character ? Lias ho a mature judge * mont ? Is ho a polished , cultured , refined gentleman ? Ho has uovor been assailed in any of these essen tial particulars , and knowing his lifo as I have for ton years , I do not hesitate to say that he is unas- aailod in all these points. I make this statement to the public because I have an earnest interest in the welfare of our public schools and beoauao I believe that the olcotion of Mr. Lewis will strengthen and improyo our school system * F.
