H remained upon the farm until of atfe, and then en tered upon farm oaper work. Hla firat experience wan a field man. Kor Ihreft year bla work took lilin Into all parta of the atato, 11 then became editor, and later principal owner of The Nebraaka Farmer, tho oldeat farm paper weat of the Mlaaourl river. It waa eatabllahed by Hon. Itobcrt W, Furnaa In 1H69. Mr. McKelvle'g aucreaa aa pub llaher of thl paper la reeognl.ed both at hoinn and abroad. For two year h haa aerved ua preal dent of the Aaaoclatcd Farm I'ap era (Incorporated;, an organiza tion of national acope and Im portance. Aa a auccesaful bual neaa man Mr. McKelvle hna an un uaual record, for one of hl yeara. An active dlapoaltlon and a tend ency toward public spirited enter prlae brought Mr. McKfclvle Into public work at rather an early period In hi bualneaa career. An a reatilt he aerved In the city Coun cil of Lincoln several yeara ago. He waa elected a member of the liouao of repreaentatlvea from Lancaater rounty while yet In bis twenties. Ilia next step was Into the office of lieutenant governor at the age of thirty-one. This young man I of Scotch anceiitry. His father, Hum Mc Kelvle, has lived upon and operat ed the aame Nebraaka farm for more than thirty-five yeara. As p breeder and Judge of pure bred Mock he hna almoat a national reputation. The McKelvle farms In Clay county are known even beyond the bounda of Nebraaka, It waa there that Samuel Itoy re ceived hla early training and edu cation. The "Dry" Amendment With reference to the Prohib itory Amendment, I inn fop It, without equivocation, and shall, In the future aa 1 have In the past, do everything that, I can to further Ita aiircesH. Furthermore, If I am elected to the reaponslble position of Governor, I ahull enforce the law without fear or favor. This atateiiiBiit ia In keeping with the a'atement that I made when 1 first announced my candi dacy, and from which I have not deviated in action or word alncB that time. In support of my sincerity of purpo.ne, I Invite you to wit now the fact that when 1 was a mem ber of I he Legislature from Lan caater County, 1 was elected on the dry platform and waa one of the most active dry member In the session of 1!M 1. My affilia tion tune alwayH been with the dry forces, and, of the family of whliii I mu a member, there are seven dry voters, none of whom have ever voted for anything but Hie dry side of the eKdse ques tion. 8.

While this linger has no authiiiity to minounco Mr. i Ati KcHIo' csinllilay, we liv ' no iloulit that lie could be In lined to accept and set Into the race by a little encourage ment. Mr. M'ivulvio was bom on a Nebraska farm over Clny county ami has lived In Nelirsska all his life, is well educated, a successful business man, a good speaker, Is clean to the cir, and In ftK't has every miallflcallou to mako an Ideal governor, I In knows Nebraska thor oughly. In public life he lias always been active, lie served one year In the Lincoln city council, which was followed by a term In the lower house of tlx? Nebraska Icslalal lire. In 1 j 1 2 lie was elected lieutenant governor by a maturity of 14, i.'i'l at s time when thn demo crat He, te 1 a governor. In this election be carried all but slxtuen counties tn the state, Mr. McKelvl tn his jiolltlnal carer has established a record for Integrity and directness of purpose. His knowledga of Ne braska, Its Industries and peo ple Is gained from a lifetime spent In the state. As clean as a whistle, able, efficient, a man who knows the 1 1 cut of tlie fsriu, a sue imMiul business man, a native son, In every way capable to fill the executive rliulr that Is riamuel Uoy McKelvle.

A Thorough Business Mas. 1'iom the Ilgh World: The announcement that B. It.
