SAVING fviOHEY FOB THE PEOPLE 18
THE GOUHTY JUDGE'S OFFICE
THE DKIOCIAT is told that the
friends of one of the' candidates
for county judjre promise that
their man will save money I'm" the
people in probate estates. This
claim is one never thought of be
fore , how can the county jud < re
save money for anyone in his ollice'
The law says what his salary shall
be , and fixes his fees in all cases
and THE DEMOCRAT can't see how-
he is going ; to save anyone money
unless he donates his salary to the
people. If he was < rein < : to do
nates his services he would not be
a candidate. If there was no sal
ary in the office no one would be
after it. The friends of James C.
Quigley do not claim that he is TO-
in to give his services , iio will
do the work the law requires oJ
him and will make the charge the
law allows and this is jii > , t what
the people want in the o'iiice. They
are ready to pa.v for what they get
but they want to be sure the work
of the oiiice is well done and if
they elect him , and we are sure
they will , he will do the work
right. He has the education and
he will take a pride in doing the
work and doing it right. Ho is
out every day meeting the voters
and getting acquainted . He has
been in the county all his life.
knows every foot of the country
and knows the people and what
they want and he will make a suc
cessful county judge.
COUXTY COMMISSIONER
The people confer no favor on
the man thev elect county com
missioner. It is an ollice that calls
for a man of first class ability but
it does not carry with it first class
pay. For this reason it is hard to
get men to take this office.
Nelson S. Rowley did not want
to run for the office but his friends
got after him and showed him that
someone must take it and that he
was so situatfdthat ho could look
after it witjiolYt' neglefling his
business.- , and ! hc finally accepted
the nominalic.nels Rowley has
lived in thi county so long and is
so well known tint it seems un
necessary to SM.V one word about
him.Ve believe il is sufficient
to let the people know thai he has
accepted the nomination and has
promised to serve in case ho is
elected. It is the people's , fight
not his. lie is not out making a
campaign for the place and car.not
be expected to do so. but he will
appreciate any work done for'him
by his friends. Everyone knows
that he is a business man of good
judgment and we need him in the
county commissioners' officer
I hereby announce myself as an |
independent candidate for county j
attorney of Cherry county , Xe-

Last fall during the panic , the
people recognized the importance
of having absolute security for
( heir money on deposit in banks.
The principle of securing bnnk
deposits H so just and reasonable
that tlu're is no argument against
it except the zitjrurwnt of the big
banker who th-it he will
ss . op
pose it with all his might because
it makes all banks equally safe.

JOS-SN F. OARR
John F.vCarr r > r Sprinjrvie.w
\vas in the city Tuesday and Wed
nesday meeting friends and look
ing after , his campaign as Demo
cratic caTididate'fnr representative
of this district. Ex-Senator Muir
came in last night and they to
gether 'have one up the road to
visit people in the \vcst , part of
Cherry county. Mr. Carr is re-
cci-vintj thelo.\al support of the
best eiiMiient of Keya paha county
and should jrei ilio support of tiiat
element here regardless of party.
It's men we want to cuuct laws for
us and I\Iv. \ Carr with his years of
experience as a farmer and stock
raiser in this country is better cap
able of looking after our interests
than one who never held the han
dles of a plow nor bared his breast
or bent his form to honest tou !
the farm and the field. Mr. Can-
has eaten his bread earned by the
honest labor that yon of earlier
da.ys experienced. Those hard
ships which you endured when the
crops were short and the winters
lonjr'and severe in years one by
were the same winters and similar
experience6 of that veteran of wes
tern Nebraska who now for the
lirst thrift in his life seeks your
vote for representative of this dis
trict. Frank Carr as he is fafnii-
iarly called down at Spring-view
ha * ; lived in the west long enough
to learn of our needs in the legis
lature. He knows by experiences
such as you and others have had ,
what to do at Lincoln when the
legislature is called together. On
the other hand his opponent Harry
Duval , the republican candidate ,
has not lived in this district lonjr
enough to know the needs of farm
ers and stockmen , even if he had
ever turn'ed his hand to toil on a
farm or ranch. Besides being a
young man with easy habits and
live as you { > ! ease conduct Mr. Du
val has not lived among us long
enough to ? eek a pluce where he
can make our laws. And such
laws as he wonK ! favor may not
suit any of us nor himself. He is
already straddling the county op
tion proportion claimingM/ in
favor of county option in some
places while : ignin it appears that
he denies it to others who are op
posed. Sh-ill we quoie from the
Spiin vievr " Herald to show that
he announced himself as in favor
of county option there ? Those
who are most opposed to county
option here are claiming DuvaJ
opposed to it.
The situation is very plain that
John F.Carr the pioneer of Spring-
view who has lived a lifetime'
among u > , who is one of us is the
the best"man to elect for representa
tive. You won't be ashamed
thatyou voted for John Carr. You
can feel proutf of it every day in
the year.
