OLSON, Superirtienlent STATE KItTOBtCXL SOC1BTT William A. Poynter, governor of Nebraska from 1809 to 1901, was one of two men elected to the post cf chief executive as the result of fusion between the Populists and Democrats. (The other was Silas A Holcomb. whose career was discussed in! an earlier column.) Governor Poynter was born at Eureka. Illinois, May 29, 1848. the son of a pioneer minister. After graduating from Eureka College, he taught school for a few years, and then went into the grocery and hardware business. He emi grated in Nebraska in 1879. pur chasing a farm near Albion in Boone County. Like many another Nebraska pioneer, William Poynter took an active part in politics almost from the date of his arrival. He was one of the organizers of the Farmers Alliance, and in 1884 he was elected to the state house of lepresentatives. the only Inde- j pendent in the bddy. The so-called "Populist Revo lution" cf 1890 put Mr. Poynter in the State senate. He had enough friends in this session to result in his election -as presi dent pro-tem of the senate.

Democrats and Silver Republi cans resulted in Poynter's ele vation tc the governor's office in 1398. The contest was close, though and he defeated Monroe L. Hayward. the Republican candidate fro mOtoe count v, by a margin of enly about 2700 votes. Though they had elected their state ticket, thev fusionists lost the legislature, and Governor Poynter had a hostile majority against him in both houses. As a result, he was able to get very little cf his program, concerned primarily with railroad regula tion, enacted. It was during Governor Poynter's administra tion that the present governor's mansion, located just south ol the capitol, was purchased. Governor Poynter was renomi nated by the fusion interests in lyeo, nut was defeated by Charles H. Dietrich. Governor Poynter always was interested in agricultural de velopment. He was one of the organizers of the Boone County Agricultural Society, and served for a number of years as a mem ber of the state board of agricul ture. Following his deteat, he con tinued to make his home in Lin coln, where he took an active part in public affairs. Ke died suddenly.

This was the plea of Captain C. J. Sanders, Nebraska Safety Patrol, as the vacation season swuner into high gear. "When you are driving out-of-state," he added, "remember that you are a guest, and that driv ing unsafely away from home is as discourteous to your host as carving your initials in his living room furniture." Captain Sanders urged all va cationists to come home safely this summer and to leave the im pression with other states that Nebraska drivers are the best in the country. The patrol's traffic fatality re port for May showed that eight of the 25 traffic fatalities were out-of-state motorists. Most of these eiht fatalities were the result of one-car accidents, which led the patrol to believe that many tourists drive too fast on unfamiliar Id gh ways. The patrol has started its yearly activity of stopping all out-of-state motorists, inform ing them of Nebraska's traffic rules, and asking them for their assistance m reducing accidents. Captain Sanders commented "Our tourist stop activity in the past has been highly successful. Tourists have appreciated the information and we have en joyed their interest in reducing accidents. The fact that tourist aaxiic iatalities were reduced 66 per cent last year under the year belore shows that it has been successful." tone as the head of a delegation lO urge Governor Shallenberger to sign the much discussed 'daynght saloon bill."
