postoffice McCook Nebraska as second class mat Tuesdays aud Thursdays For a Second Term Chester II Aldrieh has filed as candidate for a second term in the office of governor This does not debar any other republican from seeking the same honor Tin der the new system of direct nom inatons and popular government now in force any citizen of char acter and reputation lias a right to ask for the same honor The traditions of the party however make it extremely unlikely that any candidate will appear to con tset for the place By common consent a governor who has filled the office with credit for two years as entitled to become a can didate of his party for a re-election An examination of the record of Goveanor Aldrieh reveals many reasons for giving him the customary honor Beginning his term in a period of passion en gendered by the unfortunate liq uor campaign he has proven him self a sane and constructive lead er lie has seen to the enforce ment of the law and the efficient and economical administration of the state institutions He has shown courage in all his1 work and especiall3r in has vetoes of hasty and partisan acts of the leg islaiture Has administration has had a distinct influence in elevat ing the tone of Nebraska public affairs Its courage decency and general good report haive been such as toi help the canse of the party to which the governor he longs as was shown by the re sults of the November election At the present time he is de voting more of his attention to the affairs of his office than to polities but any political influ ence he does exert is toward con structive Farther than destructive action If no otliier candidates appear and Governor Aldrieh is made the candidate by default as he doubt less willbe the party will be in a good position to conduct an other winning campaign during tlit coming year Lincoln Jour nal YT7TTTTYYTTTTVYTVTTTTTTTVTTVTTTTTTTryTTTTTVyYVTYYTC I Retire Large Block of Bonds I Last Friday Mayor McAdams the taxpayers
