O'Connor , of the O'Connor Cattle Co. ,
also states that a bunch of cows and
calves , which he dipped at Crookston ,
make like showing , This indicates
that there is yirtue in dipping and
should become universal.

in winter.
Thompson Will Canvass the
State ,
Speaking of the campaign. , Mr.
Thompson says :
I shall begin the active canvass not
later than August 1 , and propose to
cover every county in the state , if pos
sible , before election day. But in the
meantime I shall not be idle. I am
confident that the fusion forces can car
ry Nebraska this fall , and all my en
ergies , from this day to the election
day , shall be directed to that end. I
want every voter to become closely ac -
quainted with what I consider the real
issues , and then all I ask is an intelli
gent expression of judgment at the
polls.
The platform meets with my hearty
approbation in every particular. In
asmuch as a new congress is to be
elected this fall national issues will
play a prominent part in the canvass.
But is my purpose to devote the major
portion of my time and attention to the
planks dealing with state issues , par
ticularly as regards the need for a re
vision of the revenue laws and the tax
ation of corporate property.
I intend particularly to eniphasize ,
also , the evil resulting from the abuse
of the pardoning power , which tends
to make a farce of our courts of justice.
And further in my campaign I shall
endeavor to make an emphatic issue on
the necessity for the strictest economy
in the administration of the state's af
fairs , coupled with a liberal policy
toward the state university , with which
I wish the people would become more
closely acquainted
