Elected Every day it is becoming more and more apparent that in the selection of a state senator lor the Twenty ninth district of Nebraska party lines will be eliminated as never before This is as it should be for the best candi date must be elected to this important trust George Sayer living four miles east of Cambridge the fusion candidate is one of the big farmer stock raisers of southwestern Nebraska His splen did fine farm and everything upon it speaks of thrifty heady management As remarked in the World Herald a few days since George Sayers stock shipments are nearly always reported as toppers He is highly respected by all who know him and almost ev erybody knows him for he herded cat tle as a boy over the entire eight counties of the district Mr Sayer had a good common school education with which to enter the big school of experience that has deepened and broadened him Into the Tery successful man of thirtynine he Is today His business acumen long since singled him out by his friends and neighbors as a leader in local af fairs A few years ago his neighbors elect ed him on their school board He found the district running in a care less disinterested way with a poor insufficient building ana worse equip ment He requested the patrons to meet with him to talk over ways and means for something better He gave them his plans and so much faith nad they in his executive ability that he was instructed to go ahead and carry them out They had 70 in their treasury Today they have a line modern school building fuily equipped with up to date furniture books and apparatus at a cost or neariy 2000 and it is all paid for without bonding the district one cent He and a few neighbors organized the Spring Ranch Mutual Telephone company George was elected president and under his guiding hand the company has a line of thirty six miles in excellent condi tion free service no indebtedness and a nice surplus of several hundred dol lars George Sayer president general manager secretary treasurer and if need be post digger and lineman ex plains it all He does nothing unless he does it well A while since he was selected by the farmers through whose lands the Cambridge and Arap j ahoe irrigation ditch runs to make tlie fight against G W Holdrege wno was J seeking to cloud the title to their lands George made the fight and won A few weeks since he made a stock shipment and the railroad failed to de liver on time by a few hours They do it every day and shippers supinely allow it Not so George Sayer He j sued them recovered a judgment lor damages and collected it He always wins He will win this fall He simply I starts in right and has a reputation of winning out He only demands I what is just and equitable and has a reputation for giving to every other man his due George Sayer will represent the farmer interests of the Twenty ninth district in a higher degree than they have ever been represented before The true interests of every merchant and business man will be better repre sented by him than by another for he has demonstrated his ability to cope with business matters and the dis trict is surely entitled to a farmers and business mens representation It is purely an agricultural and stock raising district and we already have more lawyers in the Nebraska senate today than we need Mr Sayer is the logical candidate for every interest in t e community except possibly the railroad interest and yet his well known honest fair minded dealing In all things would never permit him to wantonly vote to deprive that corpora tion of any of its just rights or priv ileges He has shipped thousands and thousands of dollars worth of stock over the B M and realizes that it is an important factor for good in the district He has never ridden on a pass in his life He Is a total abstain er and does not use tobacco in any form although he informs us that he is entitled to no mans suffrage on these grounds alone He finds time to read a great deal and is well posted on the leading political topics of the day He has good ideas on the potent needs of his district and knows how to express them logioally and intelli gently Irrespective of party politics Mr Sayer kindly asks you for your sup port on Nov 8 If you give it to him we assure you with a twenty five years close acquaintance that he will never give you cause to regret it Yours truly J H MOONEY Dem State Committeeman 29th Disk W S CURRY Populist Chairman 29th District Political Advertising WES Gems That Orient Demands i In Abundance Here MAINE HAS VALUABLE MINES Blue Variety of Stone That Chineso Value Above Diamonds Because of Lucky Qualities Also Found In fornia Western States Supposed to Have Undiscovered Supplies You saw the account in the papers of the remarkable demand for blue tourmalines in China said Dr Wil lifrn H Choate of Detroit recently but do you know that this country is very rich in these gems and that the demand for them in the orient is so great that the mines here caunot be gin to supply the market To begin with the Chinese believe that the blue tourmaline brings good luck healti and warns away evil spir its also the gem is one of the most beautiful in the world more beauti ful I think than the rose tourmaline the greeu or any other There are a great many unworked ledges in Maine that are believed to have the gems The tourmaline lies in a pocket in the ledge surrounded by decayed stone in the form of dust Maines Mines Valuable I have seen tourmalines worth thousands of dollars taken from the mines at Mount Apatite Auburn Me and some of them have gone to dec orate the crowns of such rulers as the emperor of Japan the emperor of Chi na and the petty kings of the Indian states some of whom are richer than either of the emperors named One company incorporated under the laws of Maine has mines at Auburn Minor Comer and near Mechanic Falls Apatite one of the stoues that are mined at these places has averaged li30 a ton in tourmalines and 50 more in feldspar various ores beryls aquamarines etc The cost of min ing these gems Is only 150 a ton The vein is ten feet thick with flat dip covering three acres in one of the mines Then there is the wonderful mine at Paris Me called Mount Mica from which a steady stream of gems has come for years and not half of the territory has been scratched yet I know a young lady in Boston Mis Eleanor C Hamlin relative of the man who was vice president of the United States who has a necklace which is the envy of all the crowned heads of Europe and every one of the gems came from a mine owned by her family for a hundred years situ ated two miles northeast of the little hilltop town of Paris in Oxford coun ty Me where Hannibal Hamlin was born In the necklace are all the colors that are known to the tourmaline Yellow green white pink blue black and rose are shades that burn and smolder in this remarkable piece of jewelry and I dare say that few peo ple In America know that such price less treasures are to be found here Western States Unexplored It is my opinion that there are many hidden ledges in the middle and western states that contain equal de posits but few of them have been dis covered There are mines in Califor nia that produce many tourmalines and they are mostly shipped to China and Japan where the average prince prefers them to diamonds because of their supposed lucky qualities In 1820 two boys who were inter ested in minerals had been hunting over the hills of northwestern Maine for gold signs Late one day while they were on their way home they stopped to rest on the land belonging to the father of one of them Elijah L Hamlin There had been a light fall of snow and a windstorm had up rooted a tree While they talked one of them saw a green tint in the fresh earth under the roots of the tree and looking more carefully under the Im pression that it might be a sign of cop per he found a beautiful green tour maline as large as a mans little fin ger It was perfect with the exception of a slight fracture on one end Dig ging in the frozen earth they found several others and took them home The next spring the Hamlins began mining the gems and have kept at it bff and on ever since It Is one of the most valuable gem mines in Amer ica PRUSSIAN CARS DISINFECTED Tube Invented For Quick Work on Railroads Disinfection of the coaches of the Prussian state railways has been an noying the sanitation authorities with the result that the government re cently established a system of steel tubes boiler riveted into which coach es may be backed and exteriors and Interiors rendered germless through a treatment of formalin Cars are run into these tubes one at a time the end of the tube closed and its interior filled with formalin gas The gas tank is set up as a unit in connection with he metal tubing feeding the disinfecting gases Into the tube at short range Credit to Whom Credit Is Due During the past few weeks it has become evident to close observers of the congressional situation in the Fifth district that a hot fight will be made to return Geo W Norris to congress with a large majority And while his Democratic opponent Hon R D Sutherland is engaged in making a campaign to show why he should be the representative from the Fifth district instead of Norris the fact can hardly be overlooked that the whole country is interested in the return of the present incum bent Norris work during the last session of congress has given him a national reputation and at the same time reflects credit upon the district he is representing Two years ago the Daily Republi can lead the fight against Norris re election a fight to a finish which almost resulted in a knock out yet we cannot help but recall that on the last day of the battle yea on the very eve of the election Mr Norris made a speech in the Hastings opera house which was packed with voters who had come many expecting to hear him declare that he would not vote for Cannon for speaker Be cause the whole campaign against him had been waged upon the one point that he HAD voted for Cannon for speaker and would do so again if returned This vast audience was disappoint ed at least that portion who had come expecting such a declaration for in the face of this critical mo ment Norris won admiration by calmly declaring that the speaker re ceived his power from the rules He then proceeded to set forth a plan by which the rules could be changed to take such powers from the speaker of the house Norris was re elected When the opportun ity came he made good by introduc ing just the resolution he had out lined while asking for a re election In a day he became famous and has since had his name closely associat ed with those of LaFollette Cum mins Dolliver Bristow Nelson Madison Murdock and Cooper They say that a man is known by the company he keeps and it cer tainly does look as though our con gressman had been keeping company with some of the men who fought the system which gave Cannon his power Hastings Daily Republican October 17 1910 AGAINST DAHLMAN A Democrat Who Cannot Take the Medicine McCook Neb Oct 12 To the Edi tor of The State Journal When Dahlman went to Lincoln to try to influence Governor Shallenberger to veto the 8 oclock closing law the newspapers reported him as saying that could he have raised 2500 he would have won out at the primary and would have been governor and that he then would soon fix the early closing law If he could not raise 2500 two years ago where do voters think he gets all the money they are spending this fall
