er been any use for the word "bolter'
= at least we would be happier just
= now if such epithet could not be prop
q erly applied to any OF our eandidstes.
: And no doubt the opposition to the
d Republicans feel just as we do, for
z they are in just a. bad a row fol
e stumps.
As our readers we'll know we do not
Z believe in, and never indulge in, or
e res0rtt ,subterfuges or false pFetenses.
= We know the utter folly Of attempt
z ing 10 blind the people from the truth
E or TO divert their attention from the
true surroundings ud'record Of men
asking their votes. We have not the
DISPOSITION to do so-never had-it
goes against the grain, as II we're
Hence in what We have 70 say with
regard to our candidates, or any 9TH
er candidates, We propose to treat
! them ss fairly as we can, not dIctat-
ing 10 the people-wbich l. not oCr
nor any editors prerogstive-but help
ing them simply TO see the situation
and the facts so that they msy make
% their minds uuderstandingiy and
give their influence and votes for the
J candidates who will serve their inter.
ests best.
We deem it the best way under the
the circumstances, TO notice the two
tickets by com Darison, and will hold
out the competing candidates in pairs
like stations at county fairs. and
point out their good points as well as
some of their Objectionable ones.
/ FOR SENATOR
there are DR. John F. Neal, of Peru,
and the Hon. Church Howe, Of Bed
ford. DR.. NeaI is praetieing physi
clan and surgeon. Stands high in his
profession with both the people and
his professional bretheru. He has
/ been III this business at Peru for the
past fifteen years, and is remarkably /.
popular with the people OF all parties.
This is owing to the fact that he is an /
honest, upright, conscientious Uan. s .
successful practitioner and il uot Op- 4
pressive. bat accom- mOdating and in
duIgent, in the collection OF his bills,
and reasonable in his charges. POlit-
icaIIy, be has alway been Republican,
but two years &go, so it is said by those
who ought 10 know. be devisted for
once in his life from the straight Re
publican path and supported Church

Shook. This il the only blemish thai
We know Of in the political record Of
DR.. NeaI. We hear that some Repub-
Iicaus viii vote against the Dr.. on
this account. IF any have thought Of
such a thing We think they will re-
consider tue matter. for ostracism for
20 slight political mistakes or mis-
deeds has not been. BY any means. the
-uIs with tie Republic II party in
this county.
The Hon. Church Fowe-what il
the use Of u= saying anything about F
him 10 enlizhten voters? They al
know him a. vel! as we 90. Mr.. Howe
= 2 hard tisteI farmer" q successful
one. He has Z big, we'll attended
farm, a fine residence. fine cattle and
hogs. and so far as Ee know Is = good
ueigEboT and happy liver, al OF which
are in hi= favor. Politically, MI
Howe was formerly Republican.
He abanIoned the party four years
ago, and can claim consistency by re-
naming out # it. fighting for its
overthrow. up To the present time.
He i al inGefatigahIs worker in the
field OF politics, and o. uuscrupuI0us ,
as be Il suItiriug- He sees everybody,
knows everybody, adapts his style
aud story 20 suit and catch his man.
He is the best superficial school house
speaker for q light headed audience
that ever blessed Eemaha County,
and the man who starts ou. to defeat
him has big job on his hands. As
tn ability as q legislator either Mr..
Howe or DR.. Neal are well enough +,
qualified They both have lived IN
the State long enough and mingled
with the taX-paying people sufficient
20 know what legislation il needed ,
Which one would most likely attend
best TO his legitimate duties a. legis-
latOr, and hasten home TO his own
business? The scheming politician.
wireworker, political jOber, or the
man who Is not 2 professional polite
ian, VINO detests such business, and Is
only candidate by the, earnest solicit
tatIou OF his friends and the Unani-
NOUS voice of his party convention
These are legitimate, pertinent and j
serious matters fOr.the due considera-
lion Of every voter who cares to be .
right and to vote for his own good and !
