As a (.ample of the poor Impreaalon R. II.
Howell Is making by hla campaign tour,
the following from the Journal, the local
republican paper, tells the story:
"R. B. Howell, the Omaha gentleman
who is seeking the votes of republicans
for governor of Nebraska, was In
Tekamah and spoke on the street for a
few minutes. We confess that we were
disappointed In Mr. Howell. His chief
talk was about what he had done In
Omaha and what he could do to Omaha
snd South Omnha. He did dot seem
broad enough to cover the state of Ne
braska, and his chief oornplalnt was
against the Omaha Bee because It hap
pens to oppose him. We have heard of
more than one who was really disap
pointed In finding Mr. Howell not com
ing up to their expectation. In fact, one
told us he had expected to vote for
Howell, but that hla narrow field of
view made him feel that Howell Is not
the man."
