of the excellent ideas of the Hia-

way to build a town is to offer
something worth while to the
people who come in , and then to
make it easy for them to come in.

If the congressional nomination
is to be taken away from Lancaster -
ter county , no preference will be
given to any other county and the
'
will into free-for-
race develop a - -
all. The candidates will have prac-
tical1y all even chance and the ,
candidate from Richardson should
have the same chance as the can-
didate from Pawnee or Otoe or
Cass or any county except those
from Lancaster. These things :
will tend to make a pretty fight in
the convention. But in the mean-
time a county convention must
be held and will be very important -
ant that the Richardson county
convention should remember that
the man whom it will endorses
stands as good a show as any of
securing the nomination , which :
is equivalent to an election. The
selection of the best possible man .
is therefore highly important.- ,

their whole heart into the fight ,
Lincoln can be beaten. In any
