He has recently expressed himself admirably upon questions of local interest and we commend him to the voters of the Sixth Congres- sional district as having equally as clear a perception on matters of national importance. Adopted July 23 , 1910. . . - - = c- . . - GOV STUBBS , . , INSURGENT REPUBLICAN. RENOMINATED , , I All But Two Standpat Congressmen are Do- . feated for Nom nation . We rejoice in the victory at the primaries last week of the Kansas insurgents over the tand patters despite the efforts of Speaker Can- non who invaded the state in sup- port of the standpatters. Especial- ly do we rejeice over the defeat in the Fifth Congressional district of I W. A. Calderhead who for four : teen years past has misrepresented his constituents. llather , it re quired fourteen years for the peo- ple to get their eyes open and get together to defeat him. C. A. Kim- ball , of the Manhattan : Republic , who is an old friend of ours had much to do with Calderhead's de feat. Mr. Kimball was always since we have known him a pro- gressive republican , and we grew up together on the same Kansas prairies in Riley county ; though our acquaintance dates back to the time his father was county treas- urer of Riley county , twenty years ago. Judge Reesis the nominee for congress by over 3000 majori ty over Calderhead. Don't let everybody tell you how , but be sure you're right and then vote one ticket or the other. Don't try to vote for men in both parties. Be a republican or a democrat all the way down at the primary election or your vote won't count. At the general elec tion you ; can skip about. Vote for Hitchcock , Shallenberger and Taylor as democrats or , Wheldon Aldrich and Beeman as republi- cans. The C. W. Way Co. , Architects , Hastings Nebraska , will furnish you with plans and specifications for any class of building you ; wish to erect. Ask them for informa- tion. . 15tf When the digestion is all right , the . action of the bowels regular , there is a j natural craving and relish for food. ; When this is lacking you nfay know that you need a 'lose of Chamberlain's Stom- ' ach and Liver Tablets.

POPULAR A LAW I i 1 DAY.LIGHT GALCK5N MEASURE 13 . STRONG WITH PEOPLE. _ - AN OBJECT LESSON TO OMAHA Douglas County Alone Repudiates Governor Shallenb rger'B Action . in Signing the Bill. . . . . The eight o'clock closing law has been the subject of much discussion. It has been claimed ' 1 > ) - some that It does not meet wkh the approval of the people. The democratic state convention at Grand Island , by : a vote of one hundred and sixtythree to seven hundred and ten endorsed it In the following words : "We heartily approve of the day light saloon law and commend tho courageous action of Governor ShaN lenberger In approving it. " 'Douglas ' county cast Its one hundred and four votes against the endorse ment of this law so , as a matter of fact , the state of Nebraska outside of that county endorsed the law and Gov ernor Shallenlberger's action In sign- Ing it by : a vote of seven hundred and ten to fifty-nine. This Is notice to those who oppose that law that the people want it ; that It will never be < repealed ; that no man will be elected , to office on any ticket who undertakes i to oppose it. I The only opposition to this law Is In the city of Omaha. While the peo- ple of that city may not appreciate it , their opposition to this law is unrea sonable and shortsighted. The action of the Grand Island convention Is surely an object lesson to Omaha. The citi- eenshlp of Douglas county should re member that It Is a part of the state and while the people of Douglas coun- ty generall , are not responsible : for the democratic delegation In the state convention , still the community is held responsible for what its repre sentatives do. The delegates refused to endorse any part of the governor's administration ; they were not only opposed to the eight o'clock closing law , but to a general endorsement of the democratic state administra tion. If Douglas county wants to be treat ed fairly by the remainder of the state , It must not insult , harrass or annoy the chief executive of all tho people. , The business men of Omaha are more interested in the welfare' of the city than the brewers. It is plain to reasonable minds that the rest of the state will resent the action of the representatives of Douglas county. It is high time that the business men of Omaha take a hand in politics and not allow the affairs of government to be run fay ' : the brewers. The people of Omaha allowed the 'brewers ' to insult the chief executive when the president of the country visited this state , prac tically without protest. The people of Douglas county were indifferent and uninterested when the legislature was In session. They : allowed their rep resentatives in that body to handicap and oppose the remainder of the state In passing remedial legislation. No protest was made by the business men and no attention was paid to the con duct of the representatives by thos3 who had elected them. The represen- tatives of that county in the Demo- cratic state convention made a vul gar and coarse attack on the chief ex ecutive of the state without cause. No protest is heard from the people of Douglas county. These are the things that will cause a spirit of re taliation to grow up in a state. This conduct on the part of Douglas coun ty will be resented by the people ot Nebraska and that to the uttermost. Governor Shallenberger is the chief executive of all the people. When the representatives of Douglas coun ty insult him , they offer ' Insult to that great 'body of people upon whom that city depends for its material support. Omaha will learn , when it is too late. that it pa3-s to be fair in politics as well as in business. Its business men should Haear in mind that the making and selling of "booze' is not the only thing that should be considered In Omaha. These business men ought to remember that all the ( business in. terests in Omaha are subject to leg islation , and because of this , it is nec essary for them to encourage a spirit of justice and fair dealing. That Is the sensible and safe course for Om aha business men to take. Omaha should cultivate a spirit of justice in the whole state rather than encourage a spirit of resentment. I ' Those who have financial interests In Omaha are the most interested. Even those who have financial Inter. ests in the liquor business are short sighted. Their attitude is filling the tate full of dynamite. If they pro. ceed In their foolhardy course , it will not be long B , question of regulation but one of absolute prohibition. The ordinary man in the state feels that if he has to live under a government controlled by fanatics ; brewers on one hand or Puritans on the other , that he will cast his lot with the Puri. tans and in that 'Way , drive these un fair and corrupt interests forever lbe xa nd the. h rders of our state. . . - - - - . - . . - - - ' - - - - - - - -P _ . . _ > _ . - - - - - " - - - -------------TT-TI-----T--- - < - - : - : : : : - : . ; : ; . . , : _ - - . . _ _ _ . . . . . . . . . . .

Senator. 1 J I was born in Nebraska fifty years ago this month and have lived in I to vote as nearly as possible as a majority of the people whom I re presented desired , irrespective of my personal views : I should accept the platform as a declaration of the wishes of my party. I am in favor of not only the initiative and refer endum , but thejecall as well Low- ering of tariff duties that it may exist for revenue only. Less legisla- tion , better enforcement of existing laws , more rigid economy , applying business principles in business transactions with and for the gov- ernment , recognizing that the Unit- ed States is in itself a gigantic cor poration in which each individual and corporation has an interest and must be considered , are some 67 = : t' : t- the essentials for which I stand. I oppose the passage of any national laws inconsistent with the best in- terests of the citizens of our state. I am opposed to a ship subsidy as advocated by the administration party , but I favor enlarging our I . navigation . laws in such a manner that , without a question or doubt it would build up our merchant marine I favor admitting at a greatly re duced duty , if not free , lumber , cop- per , iron , salt , wool and coal , until such time as our merchant marine becomes fully established ; provided such articles are carried from for- eign shores directly to our ports in American vessels. If any other aid be considered advisable to assist our merchant marine , I would favor an export bounty on grain and live stock , payable directly to the farmer and stock raiser , when carried in American vessels . , encouraging thrift as well as affording extra ton- nage for our merchant marine. On account of the appalling lo & , . of life in this country through var- ious forms . of diseases , I believe it ' x advisable and necessary that the cabinet offices of the president should be enlarged by the creation of a secretary of health. the State all my .life except two years spent at school as a boy in Germany. Twenty-'five years ago this month I estnblisbed the Evening World. Four years later this became the T4 Morning and Evening \ % orld He .V - " aid , which I have published I f5v.// edited as a ra lical democratic pa- per , supporting also many populist candidates. I am now serving my.third . term in Congress , representing Douglas Washington and Sarpy counties. I have been elected in this republican district by increasing majorites be- cause people of all parties have ap proved my course in Congress. My l record shows that I have fought the . trusts , tariff robbery , ship subsidies and Cannonism. 1 have supported the income tax. railroad regulation and publicity of campaign contributions. I assis - ted in the passage of the postal savings bank bill and I forced the investigation of Bdllinger and the land frauds. In these and other respects I have not only stood with my Dem- ocratic . associates but have cooper- tted with such progressive repub- icans as Murdock in the house acTT ' La Follette in the Senate. I trust that my service in the house has qualifiied me for a place ij the senat-j , and I ask your sup- port at the primaries Aug. 16th. . Respectfully , Gilbert M.
