There was but one contest in each
party for a legislative office, and that
happened to be the same one float rep
resentative from the Twenty-fifth dis
trict. For the republicans Frank Schram
of this city and Wra. Webster of Monroe
filed for the nomination. Webster carri
ed Platte county by 40 but Schram
carried Nance by 4G winning the nomina
tion by six votes. On the democratic
side there were two candidates, It. G.
liegan of Platte Center and Theo. Koch
of Fullerton. Mr. Began carried Platte
county by 503, but his opponent carried
Nance by 175, cutting his majority down
to :133. For county attorney the race
was close, August Wagner winning by
.'ID votes. There was no contest on sup
ervisors, those who filed being the no
minee. In the Twelfth senatorial dis
trict there was but one candidate for
each party, Edwin Hoare for the republi
cans and L L. Albert for the democrats.

can filing, and he will not need to make

cided to make the race and filed his ac

Mr. McElfresh Accepts Nomination.
To the Editor of TheOolambus Journal,
Colnmbas, Nebraska.
Dear Sir: Having received the nomi
nation for county attorney on the repub
lican ticket at the recent primary elec
tion, the same being wholly unsolicited
on my part and without my knowledge,
I desire to state to the people of Platte
county through the columns of your
paper that I have accepted the nomina
tion conferred and am a candidate for
said office.
As the county attorney participates in
no respect in the legislative functions of
the state or nation I deem it wholly un
necessary to advance any argument oa
party issues. Suffice it to say that I
earnestly believe that the office of county
attorney should be conducted along pro
gressive lines and that its administration
should be honest, clean anil economic
and free from vice and graft and at the
greatest saving possible to tnc tax pay
ers of the county who support the office.
I believe that the office should not rep
resent any political party or element or
faction to the exclusion of the public.
Tbe county attorney should represent
the people and the sacred trust imposed
should prompt him to fulfill his duties
to all alike with special privileges to
none. I believe that it is not within tbe
duty of a county attorney to "spy out
violators of the statute, but rather to
give due and prompt consideration to
all matters coming before him. I furth
er believe that all unnecessary expense
borno by the county for attorneys to
assist the county attorney should be
eliminated. A public official shoald
ever bear in mind that we are existing in
an age when it is hard for a great many
to supply the table with tbe actual neces
saries of life and avoid placing an addi
tional burden upon the shoulders of his
constituency in the way of increased
taxes.
Having accepted the nomination, I
earnestly solicit the support of the peo
ple and of the voters of Platte county,
irrespective of party lines or party issues.
Assuring you of my personal esteem, I
remain,
Very sincerely yours,
C. N. McEi.FiiEsn.
