GET OUT FARMER VOTE.
Farmers now get high prices for
lands and farm products , and at the
election November 3 should not risk
a change from republican rule.
G. H. Kinsey , the Republican can
didate for State Senator from Arcadia ,
ia another gentleman who came to
Nebraska in an early day. The ma
jority of his life has been spent in this
state , and he knows the needs of our
people. He is a first class-business
man , and will make an excellent Sena
tor. Oconto Register.
Nebraska farms and Nebraska farm
products are high priced now under
republican rule. Bryan's election
would change this condition , for there
would be a period of doubt and un
certainty during which industry
would lag and food prices and land
prices go down.
Juukin's Good Record.
The good record made by Sec
retory of State Junkin when he
was a member of the legislature
has been enhanced by subsequent
service in the office of secretary
of state. His work on some of
the most important boards creat
ed by law , including the assess
ment and equalization board , has
made it easy tor his friends to
recommend him for re-election.
As a supplement to house roll
No. 110 , known as the "Junkin
Act , " which was introduced by
the present secretary of state and
passed at the 29th session of the
legislature and under which the
grain and lumber trusts were
prosecuted and put out of busi
ness , Mr. Junkin and his assis
tants prepared senate file No. 358
which was introduced by the sen
ate judiciary committee of the
30th session and became a law.
This has proved to be one of the
tke best revenue measures for
for the collection of fees on the
tatute books. Under this pro
vision the income of the office of
of the secretary of the state haa
been increased from $22,463.10
for the biennium ending Novem-
FOR REPRESENATIVE.
Over 'M ) years a I'l-Hidc-nt of Custer
county. Always and exclusive ! } ' a
farmer and stock raiser , and the fact
that I am in perfect accord with the
record of the last legislature , particu
larly it's opposition to railroad rule
in the state , together with the fact
that I am a strong supporter of the
County Option bill and a more eco
nomical and judicial expenditure of
road funds , is my platform.
Respectfully Yours ,
J. A.
A very prominent issue in this campaign - i
paign is that of bank guaranty of de
posits. It is not a party issue , for
many republicans are for it and many
against it , and the same is true of the
democrats. The question is purely
a business proposition and men are
divided on it according to their views
as to its wisdom or unwisdom. Onei
of the first advocates of a guaranty of
bank deposits is G. H. Kinsey , repub
lican candidate for the legislature.
He has been talking it for years , long
before he had any notion of being
nominated for ollice. He believes in
a passage of a law that will be effect
ive and safe , and if elected he will
work and vote to that end.Orel Quiz.
Dr. A. L. Mathews , one of the can
didates for Representative on Repub
lican ticket , need no introduction to
the majority of our readers , as he was
one of the first settlers in Callaway ,
and his profession took him to all
parts of the country making him a
host of firiends and acquaintance. If
elected he will make an excellent
Represenative , and will always be
found working for the interests of
the 56th District , Oconto Register.
Farmers should not forget that un
der the last democratic administra
tion , after Bryan was in Congress and
helped to pass a democratic tariff bill ,
times were hard and prices of land and
farm products were low and that
while Bryan has abandoned free sil
ver he has never abandoned his tariff
doctrines which brought disaster to
the country and reduced the value of
lands and the price of farm products.
N. T. Gadd , Republican candidate
for County Attorney , is a man who we.
believe will make a good County At
torney , He has been a successful
Attorney for several years , and his
experience makes him well qualified
for the office. We believe he is the
man for this office , and should receive
your support. Oconto Register.
J. A. Amsberry , our other candi
date for Represenative , is an honest
farmer * living near Mason City , and is
held in highest esteem by all who
know him. He is a man of good sound
judgement and is perfectly competent
for the office he aspires. A vote for
him is a vote for a man \yorthy of
your support. Oconto Register.
Every republican farmer who does
not get his vote into the ballot box on
November 3 casts half a vote for
Bryan and half a vote against him
self and his home.
Farmers who do not vote for Taft
November 3 , will help Bryan , whose
tariff plans and other democratic
doctrines may mean reduction in the
value of lands and farm products.

law provides that all corpor

dations , domestic and foreign ,
shall file Uieir articles in this
department under a schedule of
fees based on the authorized
capital stock , and increased from
ten cents per $1,000.00 , uuder the

Under the old law foreign cor
porations were permitted to come
into the state in competition
with domestic or home corpor
ations , without paying a fee or
license tax of any kind. Now
they are required to comply with
this law and pay the same fees
as a domestic company.
In addition to the above the
department of state prepared a
inoter vehicle bill which was
passed at the last session of the
legislature , and requires all
owners of motor vehicles within

instead of only once at > provided

Farmers and farm hands who husk

price of corn goes down through
democratic experiments and tariff for

The demo-fusion pariy plunged the
state of Nebraska into debt over two
millions of dollars during the days of
their political control of the state.
Under republican economy and with
out deterioration of state institutions
or neglect of state responsibilities in
the slightest degree , that inherited
debt has been almost paid and within
a y ar will be wiped out. "Nebraska
free troin debt. ' ' will be a well earned
boast of the republican party. How
does that sound to the tax-payer of
city and country ?
The state railway commission is
not a noisy body but proceeds quietly
and firmly along its way adjusting a
largo number of contentions of im
portance bet ween the transportation
companies and the people without
fuss or notoriety. It is the peoples
commission and is the result of repub
lican constructive legislation , and ad
ministration. AVithout court costs or
delay the commission has afforded
just relief to complainants in hund
reds of instances every year. No
greater calamity could happen to the
state than that the administration of
the regulatory transportation laws
should fall into the hands of a gover
nor and commission tainted with cor
poration alliances. There is one sure
way for the people to avoid such a re
sult. The republican party made and
have administered this great agency
for securing a "square deal. " Put
only republicans on guard and the
continuation of that policy is assured.
"Mr. Taft's excellence as a
Federal Judge is not to be over
emphasized. His high ideals of hon
esty and justice are valuable and
commendatory. ' '
GROVER CLEVELAND.
"When it became apparent that
Mr. Taft would be the nominee of his
party , that Mr. Hearst and his party
would make a cleancut effort for em
placement at a National factor and
not endeavor to gain any immediate
advantage for themselves by any such
process as fusion , in fact would seek
to destroy Bryanism , or rather Mr.
Bryan's hold on the Democratic
party , not forcing the hold to relax ,
but by lessening that which he had to
hold , conjecture as to the result in the
November conclusions could be of but
one sort among sensible men. With
the several other parties disorganiz
ing , redeveloping , and pro-creating ,
the Republican Party is certain ,
though with a considerably lessened
strength , to move on to a safe victory
sustained by the popular support of
reforms which should not rebound to
its glory solely , those reforms having
been the work of decent men of all
parties. " GROVER CLEVELAND.
In the four months following the
beginning of the financial depression
last Octeber there were fifteen bank
failures in the city of New York.
The financial institutions that closed
their doors as a result of the panic
[ held $95,151,000 in deposits. Of the
concerns thus embarrassed three were
national banks , eight were state
tions under this act have grown
from 1,033 on January 1st , 190 ?
to 3,700 at the present date , and
as every license issued means
$1.00 to the general fund of the
treasury it shows an increase of
$3,7000.00 per year over the pro
visions of the old law. If the
registrations continue to increase
as they have in the past year the
state will soon receive a very
substantial income from this
source.
These are some of the acts of
the last Republican legislature
for the relief of the tax payers
and the present secretary of state
is receiving his share of the
credit for the introduction of
these measures. State Journal

Ten of the fifteen institutions have

ises to become stronger than ever be

have been permanently closed , but all
claims against them have been paid in
full. The net result has strengthen
ed the national and state banks of
New York in the eyes of the deposi
tors and has done much to convince
the people that safe and sane banking
needs no additional legislative pro
tection. In the forty-seven years
that the national banks have been in
operation the loss to depositors has
been a trifle less than one-twenty-

Kinsey for Guarantee.
The fusionists are making their
fight on Geo. H. Kinsey , the Repub
lican candidate for State Senator , al
most entirely on the proposition that
Kinsey is a banker and that he will
therefore not be willing- sanction a
bank guarantee law which willbe satis
factory to the depositor. The fusion
ists seem to forget that no one is more
anxious for security of deposits than
the honest banker. The very life and
prosperity of a bank rests on the
question of the security of the money
deposited in it. Nothing will ruin a
banks business quicker than to have
it noised about that the money depos
ited in it is not safe. Security of de
posits is the first essential to bank
ing business. The bankers are inter
ested in any measure which will give
their depositors greater security. No
man is better qualified to pass upon
a bank guarantee law than a banker
who goes into the legislature with an
honest purpose of helping to enact a
just and equitable guarantee law. If
Kinsey is elected he will go there with
that purpose in view and the people
who vote for him will not bisappoint-
ea.
FARMERS PROSPEROUS.
A very strong follower of William
J. Bryan came into the implement
establishment of one of Burt county's
thriving towns one day last week anc
purchased a lumber wagon for which
he paid $70 cash. After paying for i
he remarked :
"Let's see didn't I buy one of these
same wagons of you a little over four
teen years ago for $60 ? " The clealei
replied , "I think you did. "
"That shows what the trusts are
doing to the farmer , ' ' said the pur
chaser. The dealerstudied a moment
and said :
' 'If you remember you hauled me
GOO bushels of corn to pay for that
wagon , too. didn't you ? Now , if you
will hauld me 600 bushels of corn this
week or next I will let you have this
wagon , give you a new two-seated
carriage , a new two-seated spring
wagon , a cream separator and give
you back the $70you just paid me. "
The farmer had nothing more to
sar. He went out and hitched his
team to the new wagon and drove
home to get another load of 60-cent
corn. Omaha Bee.

instead of the ranges. In order
to have the enlargement of the
plant for the purpose of furnish
ing cooking gas be a paying-i
proposition the company
secure one hundred customers. \
The company states that if
one hundred people will agree to-
use the gas in case that the plant
is enlarged it can furnish it for
one-half tne cost of burning coal.
The company claims further that
there is practically no radiation
to the side when cooking gas is
used and it will as a consequence
not heat the room as other fuel
will. The cooking capacity of
cooking g.is is 100 per cent great
er than that of gasoline. More
over , there is no danger of ex
plosion when cooking gas is used
and the dangerous feature of
gasoline is eliminated. The
company will furnish stoves lor
what they cost.
Cooking ga is more economi
cal and more convenient than
other fuel and it would pay the
people of Broken Bow to investi
gate the proposition of the
Western Light and Fuel Com
pany and help the matter along
if they feel satisfied with the
proposition that they offer.
