AVc shall stajid ) hlong tlie side lines Saturday aird cheer the soldiers. Then -we shall boost;' for that form of bonus which shall in a practical way demonstrate the grati tude of Nebraska people. The boys are entitled to it and Nebraska should take front rank among the states that recognize their duty to their soldiers. "Tlierfc is nothing too good for the man who bares his breast to the foe. We ere ready to bear our share of the tax increase in order that Nebraska may do its duty toward its soldier boys." - " In war Nebraska has been famous for doing its part. In the Civil War, Nebraska then a territory gave to the Union a larger number of soldiers in proportion to population than any other state or territory. The First Nebraska was one of the best among the fighting regi- f '. ments. In General Grant's "Memoirs" you will read, the statement of. that line old warrior, to the -effect that at Donelson Thayer's Brigade o which the First Nebraska was an important part saved the day for the Union by charging at the right moment and, in the right way. . in the Spanish-American war Nebraska gave three regiments. All of them made good records. .' The i; "First Nebraska" the only one to reach foreign shores provided the lighting leaders in the Plulippines. Regi mental colors were torn into shreds as they floated above the dearNcbraska boys who fell eyery one of them with his face to the foe, ' ' . ' ' In the 'World War Nebraska1 gave three regiments and was prepared to give a fourth. Every, Nebraska regiment made a fine record. In addition Nebraska gave thousands of other soldiers. Many of these boys are buried io, foreign soil. They died as Nebraska soldier boys have' always died with face to the foe; and their souls go marching on in the memory, of the peo- , pie of Nebraska who 'build' the homes and pay the taxes. Nebraska is a richer state than many people know. The great .state s of Massachusetts owes Nebraska an even one million dollars borrowed money. ' Nebraska can afford to take the leadership in giving'' a practical bonus to ' her soldiers. , . It will be a good investment for Nebraska. It .will be a fitting recog-. nition for the soldiers. It will show that those who .represent Nebraska on, the plains of peace are just as brave- and big and noble as those who have . represented Nebraska en the battlefields of America and in' the blood-soaked trenches of the world. V , ; That's why we are heart and soul with the soldier boys. That's why v we lik the slogan, "Cheer the soldiers and boost the bonus." ; ' !: ICM Massive Brass y A Great - vou uvf" lill ' Iipi 111 f v .imlil" W1P- I- m-f. ..
