r\ ; ' tq THE VOTERS , :
( Continued from page 4. )
I
code of equal rights to every citizen. ,
Mr. Voter , you want to live in a better government
of the people and with your vote you make it better or
worse. Your vote counts for one. We are not here for
all time and may not live to correct a vote . wrongly cast. ,
though we may vote many times hereafter.
therefore , appeal to you for our mutual welfare to
' vote at this election for good , honest men , as far as you
may learn , and encourage your neighbors to do likewise.
We have presented before you the candidates on the
democratic ticket , believing they are worthy of your sup
Sup-
'corporation democrats , " as W. J. Taylor has aptly ex-
pressed it , "are no better than corporation republicans. "
For the U. S. senate , Hon. G. M. Hitchcock has
fought the battles of the common people 1 in congress and
he is ready to take up the battle for a reduction oft11e
, tariff in the senate , which has been the real live issue for
40 years , though often obscured and lost sight of in our
political battles. Many republicans care very little , or
nothing , for the success of Slippery Elmer Burkett and
realize that he voted oftener for Rhode Island's than for
his home state's interest , while Mr. : Hitchcock was voting
with the 'insurgent or progressive republicans and the
democrats in the House for our home state and her peo-
ple's interests exposing the Alaskan coal land frauds of
the administration and Kinkaid's connection therewith
followed the congressional investigation , showing that
while our people were relying upon him for needed leg-
islation , Kinkaid was.gobbling up something for himself
and voting for the G-iiggenheim claims to go to patent as
well as his own.
W. J. Taylor will represent the people of this dis-
trict in congress as they should be.
James C. Dahlman is a more worthy candidate for
governor - ' than Mr. Aldrich. He will be an Andrew
Jackson type , of firm convictions and ready decisio ns ,
in which , he will not be influenced by fanatical elements ,
( svayed this way and that , like a former governor who
wanted to be popular above judicial action. Mr. Dahl-
man rose from th e common people and with them will be
r his interest and sympathies.
John F. Carr is an ideal type of citizen and we feel
assured that the people will give him a handsome ma-
jority , but don't neglect him. He ought to have loyal
. . . . support . as a reward for his work in the last legislature
. a and this will assist him when he calls for further favors
t
for this district.
Chas. A. Ruby will make a faithful official as county
attorney. His energy , industry , honesty and ability will
repay our taxpayers in honest service for his salary and
he should receive your support.
J. F. Naylor , candidate for county commissioner , is
a man of superior ability and splendid education. . His
r
wide experience andpleasant agreeable disposition' es-
pecially fit him for the work of county commissioner.
This is one of the most important offices in the county ,
for the county board has charge of the finances of our
county. Good judgment and progressiveness is an es-
1 " sential quality in this office and Mr. Naylor has in ad- '
V \ieSation to these the popular will and wishes of his Merri-
\.u
\cvan neighborswithout regard to party. A vote for him
is in your own interest as a taxpayer or for whatever
Business you may have to transact in that office.
. . : Now , in conclusion , let me add that while we may
j , hot have properly presented the claims and qualifications
of all or any of these : worthy candidates , let that be not
. a valid reason for lack of support and rather , if we have
f
< failed , we ask you to supply our deficiency and give
these men the support they deserve for your own inter-
ests. It is a duty for you to perform next Tuesday.

It has been shown during the
last week , that all the" engravings
that have been flourished in the
face of the voters of this-state
purporting to be original , were
only so , in the fertile brain of the
conspirators. It has been proven
that the words "Chg : this to J. S.
Bartley Treas : " kvere ] pasted onto
the slip with intent to further de
ceive and , that other words were
dexteriously cut out. Was there
ever such a stnpendeous conspir =
acy hatched up and placed before ' "
an inteligent constituency by any
discounted candidate for the pur-
pose of downing his opponent and
continuing his own tenor of office ?

Mr. Dahlman's traducers now ask
the voters of this state to accept
an unsigned version of the shoot-
ing of Brev , given by an old get -
tleman in his datage in the howls
I of a skilful reporter who was sent
I southern Texas for that purpose '
This version differs from Dab
I
man only in some of the minor
I details of the shooting , but g'osse
over by the reporter , seeks to put
the outlaw Brev in the most favoi
able light possible , yet he was
compelled to admit that Brev was
supposed to have been hung some
eighteen months after Dahlman ;
had left Texas.

The average iurmer in Nebraska !
does not object to the lightning rod
man or the tree agent jollying him a .
little now and then , because he is not
obliged to buy their goods , if he does
not want to. But when a Candida. ;
for the United States senate seeks his
vote to secure a position conferring
on him power that can be used to in-
crease the price of the lumber , hard
I ware , machinery , clothing and other
I items that the farmer must buy , jolly
ing don't go , bat the candidate must
I chow by his record that he has used
his influence in the past on the side
I of justice to the farmer and not on
I
I the side of these who , through tariff
I schedules , levy unjust tribute upon
the farmer in the price of the goods
he must consume. The farmers of
Nebraska this year : , regardless of
party , will very generally vote to send
Gilbert M. Hitchcock l to the United
States senate and retire Elmer J.
I Burkelt , because Hitchcock's record is
I on the side of the farmer and Eur-
: lett's record is on the side of those
I who would raise the price of his lum
ber , fence wire and other necessities.
I ? , lr. Hitchcock challenged Senator Bur
kett to meet him in joint debate be-
fore the voters of the state and' com-
pare records , but the wily : Burkett : de-
clined the invitation and still con
tinues the jollying came , telling : the
farmers how much he loves them and
I what a great country we are living in.
Present indications are that the vot
ers of the btate are well on to Bar-
kct's jollying game , and that they will
sit down hard on him " n election day.
I The alUMnpt f county optionists to
, convey the idea that they are not ad
I vocating : : : prohibition , pure and simple '
I is as shallow ! minded as it is dishon-
I
est. The object and purpose of coun
ty option is to secure : : : county prohi
bition wherever it can be done. . An
affirmative vote on the license : ques
tion in a county does not change
UK.- present laws at all , while a nega
tive vote means prohibition for the
county. Thprcfore , there can bpnc
reason urged in favor of the change
rxcept the desire to put the towns.
viHagrs ! and cities ! of the county under ]
a prohibitory law l wherever it is pos
sibly for this to be done :

Wendell Phillips : ; stated in one cf
his public addresses that "We do not
live under a government of law , but
under a government of public opinion , "
and proceeded to show that when a
statute was not fully upheld by public
( opinion it could be violated with im
punity , and that courts would aaj's : be
able ] to find excuses for not punishing
Its violators. The truth of Mr. Phil :
lips' statement has been abundantly
demonstrated wherever prohibitory :
laws have been tried. A prohibitory
i ir.w put upon a town against the will
of a majority of the citizens thcreoi
is net relished any better if the county
DC the offender , than though the law
was enacted by the legislature of the
slnto. The effect and the result will

The United German societies of Ne

the Prohibitionists.
The wisdom of the law for the regu
lation of the liquor traffic that has
been in force in Nebraska for thirty
years is fully vindicated by results. :
Under this law the evils of liquor
