M.ELFRE8H That newspaper is 'moat loyal to its party which first raises its haad against bad principles and bad men within its party. Among other things, we can't un derstand why the Signal should have been so anxious to defeat Edgar Howard in the county convention and so anxious now to elect Howard's candidate, Shallenberger. " Judge Boyd has declared himself on the issues of the republican plat form and pledges himself to stand with Roosevelt- If he succeeds in convinc ing every voter of the district that he means what he says, his election will be unanimous. W. J. Bryan's assault upon Roger Sullivan may have raised Bryan per sonally in the eyes of the public but it has been pretty hard on the demo cratic party. As the case now stands, tli democrats of Illinois have proved conclusively that they want Bryan for his oratory and Roger for his grafting propensities. The disavowal of .Bryan's govern ment ownership theories by the lead ing democrats of the country has proved conclusively that government ownership, if it comes, will come from the hands of the republican party. And any student of history should have forseen this. How could a state's rights democrat be reconciled to the centralization implied in gov ernment ownership. The Journal wants to put this ques tion straight to its democratic and populist readers: Now, honest, did nt the last republican state conven tion make the kind of platform, and name the kind of men that you hoped the democratic and populist conven tions would make and name? And don't you feel it in your bones that Sheldon and a republican legislature would do more clean, honest, effective work on rate regulation and other ques tions important to you, than would Shallenberger and a democratic legis lature put up and dominated by such men as Edgar Howard and P. E.

Sheldon the standard bearer for the "square-deal" program in Nebraska. If elected he will vote to send Norris Brown to the senate to help hold up the hands of Theodore Roosevelt in his fight for the rights of the common people. He will vote for lower freight and passenger rates, in Ne braska and for the measures that will look toward the interests of Platte county farmers.

MCELFRESH. G.N. McEIfresh, the republican candidate for county attorney, is one of the best lawyers in Platte county, one of the straightest, cleanest and ablest young men in the state and his republicanism is of the kind that prompted him to stand up in the county convention which nominated him and declare; "Gentlemen, I will do all I can to be electdd and if elect ed I will do my very best to transact the legal business of Platte county taxpayers honestly and economically. The county has considerable business with the railroads and other corpora tions. I do not believe that an attor ney can act with a free hand in this business while accepting favors from the corporations concerned. I there fore pledge that I shall not accept a railroad pass or other favor while-1 am in office." The duties of county attorney are for the most part a mass of petty matters particularly adapted to the energies and ambitions of a young man. These small things in the aggre gate are of importance to tax-payers, but in detail they are apt to be deemed insignificant by the older practitioner unless his habits are especially ener getic The greatest tribute was paid to Mr. McEIfresh by Judge Reedor who said in the convention "Mr. Mc EIfresh is one of the brightest, ablest and most promisieg young attorneys before the bar intthis district." C. N. McEIfresh is thoroughly qualified both by education and prac tice. He is a graduate of the West Virginia State Normal and of the col lege of law in the university of West Virginia and was admitted to the Ne, braskabaron examination in 1903. He has practiced successfully before all the courts in the county and is now acting as deputy county attorney. Faith in a Jones, a Pawaee ooaaty far-, this week shipped sixty foar haad of oattle weighing on the aver age 1,681 pounds each, and worth in the neighborhood of Ire thousand dollars. The news item making this ft contains the farther t that Mr. Jones came to Pawnee ooaaty thirty-Ire years ago with a capital of forty-Ire cants. He adopted a policy of working steadily aad patting his savings into land, and iaaow possessed of 1,600 aeaas of Pawnee ooaaty soil, worth at least $100,000, together with the usual ap purfaneaows in the way of live stook and other personalty. The state of Nebraska is fail of like cases. Saoh fortunes are based as a rale Irst upon good farming aad second apoa a faith in the oountrv that leaves now their possession land worth fromhtty to a hundred dollars an acre whioh cost them originally, say, one tenth as maoh.' Mr. Jones fortune repre sents In average saving during his residence in Nebraska of about $8,000 a year. A considerable proportion of this represents, of ooarss, not earn ings bat a rise in land prions, yet men of superior ability will begin now and repeat the performance in the next thirty Ire years whether land risss farther or not. It will not be so easy to start now as it was than, on a capital of forty-five otnts, of knowledge to draw upon now that there was then, a fact that ought to eqaalise advaatages to those willing to learn.

Mr. Prowett was a successful far mer until his neighbors induced him to become their servant in that most important of all county offices, that of county treasurer, And they liked him so well that they re-elected him for a second term. Mr. Prowett is vouched for by Nance county people in both parties. The big majority of voters in Platte county want legislators who will stand by Sheldon. They know that parti san reasons would induce a democra tic representative to try to ftmbarasn Governor Sheldon. They should therefore vote for Prowett who will bring earnestness, honesty and exper ience to the aid of Sheldon in his struggle to bring about a square deal to the taxpayers of Nebraska.

How to begin with "young husband's was the topic of conversation among a group of young Oolumbus wives one day lt week.
