It is a noticeable iact that the democrat platform at Grand Island last week does not say a word in favor of the recent demo cratic legislature or present demo crat administration. There is no further doubt of the hold the saloon clement has on the democrat party of Ne braska. Bryan with all his in fluence was not able to stem the tide ag'ainst the saloon partisans in the Grand Island convention. Notes On The Primary Eclcction. At primary election polls open in all precincts , except cities where icgiatcrnatiou is required at 12 m , and close at 9 p. m. In voting place a cross ( x ) opposite the name of the candidate you desire to vote for , but all candi dates voted for must appear in the same , party column. If you vote for candidates in more than one column your vote will not be counted. & If the republican party docs v not win out this year in Nebraska * they will have no one to blame I but themselves. The opportu nity is at hand Let the business men show their appreciation of the newspapers by giving them their share of their patronage and encourage the candidates with their personal.support and victory will come. It is no time for indifference upon the part of 'any who believes in the princi ples of the republican party. The issue of this campaign in Nebraska is now plainly before the peopld The republicans in State Convention declared Jwith an over whelming majority in favor of county optioc , while the democrats in their state conven tion with an almost unanimous majority declared against it. It is the same old story. The re- I . publican partfas ever has tal.-cnl tttc l 9d/W'Ue $ tfon'6f fro- ; ] grcsslcn /while , the , democrat continue to flduadfr iii tHe-gutfer , mt pn. ist in wnlJowinjr in tic nine- . ; ' A Tbe populist in , their state 'convention dedartd in favor ofj county option and pledged it incui1 era not to vote for any candidate didato opposed. It is now to be seem whether they v/ill remain true to their principles or whether they will support the democratic candidates and assist the brewer ies in coutroling the state. There is no question with the republicans pledged for county option and the dcmocras against where the saloon crowd will spend their money and cast 'their vote this year. I hey spent their money to capture the democrat convention and will more ircciy spend it to secure the defeat ol the republican candidates. lion. Moses P. Kinkatd foi Congress. At the primary election the lOb. republican voters will in a large tneasuic determine whether the Sixth Congressional district will be represented in the next Con- grcss by a republican or demo crat. But one of the republican candidates will receive the nom ination. That will be the one who gets the largest number of votes in the primary. After the nomination is made conies the M. P. Klnkald , Congressman 6th DIst. real contest between the republi can and democrat parties through their respective candidates. I stands the republicans in hand not only nominate a man capable of filling the position but one who may in the campaign againsl the strongest of the several can didates who wi'l doubtless be nominated. The in in in office for several reasons usually has v better chance of 're-election ' than a new man and it is not a safe- plan to change horses incross'np ] ' a stream. That the contest in this dis. trict this year will be a close one is generally b.leived and for that reason if for no other should not think of trying to experiment with a new man. The present incumbent has shown his ability in the part to accornplifclf'wliat he undertakes for the benefit of his constituent" , lie is a careful and conservative legislator and stands high with his colleagues in congress His xperience of the past will enable him to do more in the way of legislation in the future than would be possible for a new man. There is uo question but M. P , Kinkaid is the strongest republi can candidate before the people and if the republicans care to win in this election over the com bined forces of the democrats and populists with either of the candidates Mr. Kiukaid is the man. There should be no halt ing in the matter of choice vote for Hon. M. P. Kinkaid at the primaries and you have taken the first important step in securing a republican from the sixth district.

Coming to the Chautauqua With Good' Voices , Good Instrumentation and a Good PrograntjOf Popular Readtngs. The Weatlierwax Brothers Male Quartette , as the name implies , is com posed of four brothers. This fact renders the organization unique. Their voices have not only the musical blenJ that comes of careful selection with reference to volume , quality and nat- 'ural pitch , hut there is added the family characteristics as well. There Is a harmony of the blood as well as of the voice. Add to this the strong family resemblance in faces and forms : and you have a modulated , balanced harmonized qtiarotte that is in a. clasi by itself. From the very beginning this Male Quartette has scored splendid suc cesses. They arc young men of class 'and spiiit. They want to please nnd bend their energies to that end. There are always many encores at a Wcath envax entertainment. The poor/le c&r not get enough of their work. Refine ncnt , culture and real musical ability .combine in this quartette to a degree that assures their success being com plete everywhere. One careful observer , after hearing them n number of times remarked "One is reminded of open field worlt when he watches a Weatlierwax per formancc. There is the strong indl .vlduality and the constant suggestion of team work as well. Every time ono comes up to bat , you expect him to make a homo run. " The care with which their programs are arranged with serious and humorous selections In proper variety nnd relation caused another critic to characterize their work as "wholesome and lively , pul together just right. " In addition to all the usual musical numbers , solos and catchy encores tjio Trumpet Quartette of this organi ! zatlon is a most pleasing feature. There is a dash and spirit to It that lsrefroshlnff and a heroic element thai appeals to everyone. Nojvftdays no quartette Is considered complete without * a reader of ability , but the Woatherwax Quartette is for tunate enough to "have two , both ol whom are nrtfsts of high grade. The truth is that every feature presented by this splendid organization ol brothers is delivered with the grace nnd ease that distinguish the work of professionals from that of amateurs. They will bo welcomed by enthusias- tic thousands throughout the territory ot the Western Redpath Chautauqua | System , where their tlmo is all taken for the coming season.
