LINCOLN. Aug. . It li the ulan of tha
manager of the republican atate campaign
to carry out toe terma of tha atate law
utlicrlzlng election urtV.ers to count
lit party votea for tha constitutional
ndment. The legality of tha law haa
been testrd und some were In favor
of Instructing voter to rote separately for
tha amendment, but the term of the law
will be compiled with. The statute provides
that when a political party In auto con
vention endorsea a proposed constitutional
amendment, all atralght party ballots snail
be counted as votes for the amendment.
There la little doubt In the minds of of
ficials of the committee that the railroad
managers will place every obstacle possible
in the way of the elective railroad com
mission. It the amendment ia adopted, and
that the validity of the election law will
eventually be tested in the eourta. Some
provisions in the constitution are believed
to cast ilouut upon the validity of the law.
but It Is a carefully davlnod statute and aa
long as It is the law of the state the com
mute officers will urge a compliance. Al
though Attorney General Brown haa given
no formal opinion on the subject, he haa
advised following the statute.
The democratic state convention also en
dorsed the railway commission amendment,
but the endorsement haa not yet been for
mally certified to the secretary of state.
The election law, under the head of In
struction to voters, says:
If you wish to vote a straight ticket,
make a murk In the circle at the top of
the ballot to the right of the name of the
?arty, and your ballot will then be counted
or every candidate and aa approval of
party action on any constitutional amend
ment of that party on the ballot. If you
wish to vots otherwise than a straight
ticket, make a cross In the square to the
right of the name of each person for whom
you wish to vote or for or against any
constitutional amendment; if you wish to
vote a straight ticket with the exception
of certain olticera or constitutional amend
ments place a croas In the circle at the
head of the ticket for which you wish to
vote In the main, and then place a cross in
the square to the right of the candidato
of the other parties for whom you wish
to vote, or In the square to the right of the
worda "For" or "Against" any constitu
tional amendment. .

The Children Enjoy
Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoyment
which they receive and the efforts which they make, cornea the greater part of that
healthful development which ia ao essential to their happiness when grown. vThen
a laxative ia needed the remedy which ia given to them to deanae and sweeten and
strengthen the internal organs on which it acta, should be such as physicians would
sanction, because its component ports are known to be wholesome and the remedy
itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and
parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little onea enjoy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is Syrup
of Figs and for the same reason it la the only laxative which should be used by
fathers and mothers.
Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally
without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system etfectually,
without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the cld
tlme cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so
carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not
needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only
the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs.' '
Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative
principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but aUo to our
original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do
not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to
increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company
