THE SALOON OR THE BOYS AND GIRLS WHICH ? 4 There is wrapped up in our young people all the possibilities of the fu ture. The achievements of the next generation lie latent within them. It is our privilege to make them what they will be, and in so doing to de termine the course of history far beyond our own time. PAWNEE RICHARDSON SENATORS The county option democrats of Richardson county arc objecting very strenuously to the candidacy of John H. Morehead for tho state senate. One voter writes from Kalis City: “The county option folks don't want Morehead. He Is objectionable on other matters besides county option. 1 hope Hall of Pawnee, tho other dem ocratic candidate, is all right or at least, better. Dr. Johnson, republican of Pawnee, is all right of course, and will be nominated, as he has no oppo sition. But tho Pawnee temperance men ought to help us beat Morehead." All of which is referred to the good temperance people of Pawnee, where the democrats are just as dry as the republicans. • * • REPUBLICAN DECLARTIONS. "Kor the further regulation of the liquor traffic in Nebraska, we are in favor of the passage of a county option law by tho next legislature, ami pledge our candidates for gover nor, If elected, to approve such a law on that subject as ihe legislature may enact." “We recognnize the existence of a sufficient demand for direct legis lation in this slate to warrant sub mitting the question to the vote of the people. We therefore favor the submission of a direct legislation amendment to our constitution by the next legislature.” “We favor the creation of a non partisan board of control for the penal, reformatory aand charitable in stitutions of the state.” "We favor the passage of a new apportionment law, at the next ses sion of the legislature, redistricting the state into senatorial and repre sentatives districts, giving to each fair and equal representation, based on the population, as shown by the census of 1910 ,aud if the legisla ture. which is elected this fall, fails to preform this constitutional duty, while in regular session, we pledge the people of this state that the re publican candidate for governor, if elected, will convene the legislature in special session until this con stitutional duty has been performed.” “Every protest against the wrong is insurging for the right. We are un alterably opposed to the system known as ‘Caunonism’ and are in hearty sympathy with the insurgent movement in and out of congress. We herewith urge our senators and I representatives to continue to use their votes and influence along pro gressive lines in the future.” WHAT COUNTY OPTION MEANS. In answer to many inquiries, it Is well to observe again that the prin ciple of county option, as tried out in many states, is that when a < ounty votes dry, it Is all dry. When a county votes against the "dry” proposition it remains just as^ It was before, leaving the municipal ities to have saloons or not have, them, as they may decide In then local elections. In Nebraska, to fail to dry up a county would mean to leave the Slo cum law in effect just as It is now. County option is not a proposition to vote saloons into a county. It is to vote them out of a county. Saloons are already outlaws under the law, permitted only under certain condi tions, and restrained by bonds and locul police regulations. County Option would mean a chance of the people of the whole county to absolutely prohibit the lic ensing of outlawry within the county. Brewery papers call this a jug-hand led arrangement. So is the licen sing of outlaw institutions jug-hand led. So is tlie ruining of the lives of men and hoys Jug-handled. * * at WHEDON’S PLATFORM. Lincoln, Neb,, August 1, 1910. To the People of Nebraska—The primary election for the nomination of candi dates for office by tho several parties will be held Tuesday, August 10, 1910. I am a candidate ftir the office of Putted States senator on the repub lican ticket. I am in favor of all the legislation declared for by the republican party in its platform this year. I am in favor of the performance of every promise made by the re publican party in Its national plat form of 1908, and for such a revision of the tariff downwards us can be discovered without the aid of a search warrant. > 1 am in favor of placing lumber uni! other material used in the construct ion of dwellings on the free list, and of doing It at the next session of congress. 1 am In favor of placing on the froo list at tho next session of con gress, agricultural implements, me chanic's tools of all kinds, sewing machines, and everything which can be produced here, the importation of which yields the government practi cally no revenue, and which can be manufactured here and sold for ex port at it less price than for home use. I am for placing sugar on the free list at the earliest day possible. If the laws now in force are not sufficient for the effective prosecu tion of forbidden trusts and combina tions, I am In favor of the enactment of such further laws as will drive that class or Combinations out of exist ence. 1 am in favor of such government al control of transportation com panies as will prevent unjust discrim ination of rates for service intend ed to yield an income on nothing invested. In so far as that object may be nc compllshed by legislation, I am in favor of the enactment of laws which will tend to decrease the cost of living. I am opposed to ship subsidies. I am In favor of such legislation, state and national, as will afford to every depositor in a bank the great est possible security for his money. I am in favor of restricting the franking privilege to tho free trans portation of the Congressional Record and parts thereof; the reports and public documents of the government or any department thereof, and of making the free transportation of any thing else through the mails a crim nal offense. 1 am in favor of reducing the post age on the first-class matter, fifty Per cent, and that at the next session of ioppress. 1 am opposed to all legislation which tends to the creation of great interests and combinations by the few to the ruin of individual efforts and the destruction of industrious, in dependent action of the many and the deprivation of labor of its just compensation. I am in favor of liberal appropria tions to all ex-soldiers who have ren dered faithful service to the govern ment in time of war. I am in favor of such federal leg islation as will tehd to prevent '‘boot legging.” To that end I am in favor of the enactment of Congress at the earliest possible day of a law which shall prohibit the government from selling stamps or issuing per mits for the sale of intoxicating liq uors in territory where such sales are prohibited by local law, and making such sales in such territory crimes against the federal government. CHAS. O. WHEDO.V • * • Temperance voters in either the populist, republican or prohibition parties can all .this time vote for T. M. C. Birmingham for U. S. Sen ator. He is the only one of the four candidates for this office on the People's party ticket that stands un reserved for temperance and meets the requirements of their Grand Is land platform. MAKING RAPID STRIDES. Senator Aldrich of David City is making rapid strides in his gover norship contest. It now appears that Ex-Governor Sheldon is not to be a candidate, and Aldrich naturally falls heir to these forces. This is for fortunate, for it presents progressive republicanism in a united force. There has not in years been a candi date for governor who has done so much for the people as Senator Al drich of David City. Every time you buy a railroad ticket for one hund red miles remember it only costs you two dollars. The dollar saved and in your pocket is there because Senator Aldrich "made a winning fight for the two-cent fare. He is the author of the freight rate law that bears his name, and since its operation the ship pers of this state have saved more than seven million five hundred dol lars. Then why should not the peo ple unite and make their best friend governor of this state?—Valparaiso visitor. - LINE UP FOR HIM. The atmosphere has cleared some what. Governor Sheldon has decided] not. to be a candidate for the republi-i can nomination for governor. This! leaves Senator Aldrich as practically] the only progressive republican in I the field. Now let every progress ive republican in the state line up for Aldrich at tile prinuiriesand give him the nomination over the react ionaries by a big vote. * « * PATRICK OUT OF THE RACE. From State Capital. The political sensation of I lie week is furnished by the withdrawal of W. It. Patrick from I lie democratic guber natorial race. Mr. Patrick entered the race as a strong county optionist. Ills idea was to force Shallenberger to come out Into the open on the ques tion. This he succeeded indoing. There is no question that Shallen berger was scared when Paterick announced his candidacy. It either meant that he would lose votes enough to defeat him, or he would have to stop his “pussy-foot” cam paign. The second rude shock was at Grand Island, when the populists made a strong declaration for county option, and pledged their voters to stand by the man who was out. in the open. Within an hour Shallenberger had a declaration ready. He said he would sign a county option bill, if It came up to him “in a constitu tional manner.” This dodge of Shallenberger's may have fooled the pops a little, but it does not seem to have fooled Pat rick a great deal, if one read closely Ills statement, which is as follows: "South Omaha, Neb., Aug. 2.— I have withdrawn from the guberna torial race because 1 can aid the cause of county option more out of the race than I could by remaining in It was impossible in the time available before primary day to awaken the voters to a realization of Df the fact that the railroad-brewery combine is again behind tile candi dacy of Shellenberger, and 1 would prefer to devote my efforts to more "ffective work, for 1 feel a deeper anxiety for the cause than 1 have for any office. “My filing had the effect of smoking Shallenberger into a promise to sign a county option bill should one be passed by the legislature. This prom ise may amount to no more than did his promise to the brewers two years ago to oppose any amendment to the Slocum law, but 1 had the supreme satisfaction of forcing him to make !t In the presence of a greater num ber of witnesses. 1 cannot escape the conviction that by its cowardly attitude towards county option as expressed in the Grand Island platform the democratie party prepared for a splendid and certain defeat in the coining contest, because I believe that county option sentiment is stronger than party ties in Nebraska today, and. in my humble judgment., the candidate who stands squarely upon a county option plat form will defeat any cowardly strad dler by at least twenty thousand ma jority. WILLIAM F PATRICK.” EARS TO THE GROUND. In reading over the interview with Colorado legislators, it is plainly seen that the good old “fence” has not lost its popularity as a strad dling seat for statesmen. Many of the eminent senators and representa tives have “nothing to say at this time,” and “must refuse to discuss issues until they are presented.” One can imagine the Jovian fowns that darken their august brows, and al most visualize the chill rebuke their attitude administer to the reporter so impertinent as to intrude upon their ponderings. All of which was very well a de cade ago, when the people considered public business a part from private business, and simply elected repre sentatives with reference to sonorous tones and Hyperion curls. The people are now giving public business the same careful scrutiny that private business has always re ceived, and instead of windbags and corporation tools they are demand ing honest, plain speaking men who will stand for them in the legisla lure as trusted agents represent them in personal affairs. Can anyone irn agio? a merchant dispatching an agent to carry out specific direction and then when the agent fails him,’ resting satisfied with the answer, “I am not ready to discuss the matter at tjiis time?” There is no excuse for any Colo rado legislator not knowing where he stands. The people have given their orders, every issue has been discussed and refusal to take a position springs from idiocy or crook edness. This cheap pretence of statesmanlike deliberation is nothing more than a cloak for fool or rescal. In every district where the repre sentative has refused to express him self, the people should instantly call meetings, and put the grave and reverend seignor on the carpet. He should be made to declare himself' either one way or the other, and not permitted to wobble around until he can decide which way his political in terests lie. The present demand is for men who do know where they stand, not fellows who seek to fool the people by owlish gravity and much pretense of thought. Every representative with his "ear to the ground" is in a position that invites nothing so much as a swift kick. And lie should get it. It is much easier to have respect for a man who comes out. flat against his party's pledges and the people’s interest, than a hypocrite full of mealy-mouthed evasions and stales manlike silence.—Denver post. * * * A FALLEN IDOL. The peerless leader has fallen from his high estate and Nebraska democ racy lias taken its place as the party of the brewers. William .). Bryan was sat. down on nt the Grand Island convention for his tem erity in proposition to favor a tem perance measure. County option was turned down along with Mr. Bryan of course, but that famous states man is probably stronger with the rank and file in his losing fight than if he had failed to make it. The old adage is again illustrated that a silk purse cannot be made from a sow’s ear- meaning that Mr. Bryan set him self loo large a task to convert dem ocracy to a temperance platform. His influence will have much to do with the state campaign, and since the re publican party, by a vote of more than two to one has championed the temperance issue, it will not be sur prising if Mr. Bryan’s influence would lie in the direction of republican suc cess. At any rate, the situation is clarifying, in the state as well as the nation, and the republican pros pect ih roseate in comparison with what appeared to be some months ago.—fuering Courier. * * * Your ballot is a club for with which you can beat down the oppressor.

The Humboldt leader In a recent Iseue gives publication to the follow ing; Good Word* for Hayward. "We have a letter from A. J. Weaves of Falls City, en route on a business trip to Seattle, in which he renews for the leader, and takes oc casion to comment on the political sit uation in the First district, as follows: “ * • * * Some time ago I noticed in your paper favorable mention of the candidacy of Hon. William Hay ward for congress. I fully approve of your position, as I regard Mr. Hay ward as a young man of exceptional character and ability and the most available candidate in the First dis trict. He represents a sane yet pro gressive position and sentiment on public questions and will be a credit to the state at Washington. His ser5 vice to the republican party in sev eral campaigns as state chairman, and as secretary of the national commit tee during the last presidential cam paign entitle him to the greatest con sideration at. the hands of republicans at the primaries, and his ability, char- v acter and progressive, yet souniT posi tion on public policies, entitle him to cordial support at the November elec tion. Nebraska wants big. strong, brainy and honest men of high ideals in the national legislature. Hayward is such a man.’ ” Meets the Issues. "The wise old Dunbar Review is cor The wise old Dunbar Review is cor rect in its surmise that Mr. Hayward will carry every county in the district at the coming primaries on August 16th, and in the meantime let's all ot us boost for Bill with all our might and main. The attempt is a worthy one for any good citizen to make; Will Hayward is a part of our life down here in Otoe; he has shown that he is capable of doing big things, he Is brainy, progressive and alert to the wishes of the people. He has never been 'stuck up,' is straightforward in action and candid and honest in his opinions and will undoubtedly make the bast congressman the First dis trict has had for many years. "And while we are doing plenty of boosting. It Bhould be remarked that Mr. Hayward, himself. Is boosting hi* candidacy for all he Is worth, calling on the voters in all parts of the dis trict and getting close to the ground, a position which all progressive po litical candidates are assuming these days of turbulence and independence in thought and action. The time has passed when any political candidate can get through with flying colors by making tinsel promises, talking of the ‘grand old flag' and appealing to the sensational. It requires stamina and grit to meet the issues face to face— and we claim Will Hayward is doing that very thing.” — Nebraska City Press. Brief Biography.
