Wsncr Chronicles Jack MacCol is max
ing good use OF this fine haying weather. lie
is not much of an orator but he has plain
way of telling what he has to say in way
that counts.
McCook Tribune: Ole Hcdund is one of

bc well at the head of the republican pro-
cesslon. He Is one of the best qualified and
cleanest men on the ticket.
Kearncy Hub: AdyiCcs from western Ne
braska show that Jack MacColl has been
making great inroads upon Governor Hol-
combs former strength, which the latter
will hardly be able to recover.

eminently well qualified for the position, and

sure to be the next governor of the best
state in the union.
Central CITY Nonpareil; Charles E. Casey

ident of the Farmers State bank at Pawnec
City, one of the most successful banking
institutions in the state. Mr.. Casey is held
in high esteem by his acquaintances and as

tions of trust is thorough hnanCier and
Superior journal: From all over the state
comes the most encouraging reports OF the
canvass of Jack MacCOll for governor. There
Is every indication that he can count on
20 600 to % 900 plurality. In this imme-
diate vicinity the change of voters from the
populist and reputation parties to the ranks
of republicanism is rapidly being made, and
there is little doubt but that Nuckolls county
will roll up the largest republican vote this
year that she has pOlled since the days of
Jim Laird.
Stuart Ledger: Hon. NJ. p Kinkaid the
republican nominee for supreme judge, is
the only candidate on the state ticket from
north Nebraska. His many admirers in Holt
county and in his old judicial district are
vote in north Nebraska The judge in the
past has always run ahead of his ticket and
there is every reason why he should this
campaign. If there is any one position for
which he is better adapted than another it
is for this high judicial rank. He is well
fitted for and well deserving of the high
honor that has come to him.
Norfolk News: The republican vote in
Nebraska in 1894 was 9S,241, and the COM
bined populist and democratic vote was CO.
321, which gave the republicans a majority
over the combined opposition of 1920. In
that year every republican candidate for
state office was elected except governor, and
the defeat of Tom Majors is chargeabe to
members of his own party This year there
is harmony in the ranks, and dissension
among the opposition, and the state ticket
from Jack MacCol down will be elected by
greatly increased majority. And Ne
braska will round out the good work by
giving Mckinley handsome majority.
Hayes Center Times: Jack MacColl for
governor does not fail in single requisite
He has been weighed in life's balance and
has been proved equal to every emergency
lie comes up to the expectations of the com
mon people. and his defeat would be calami-
touS to their many interests. Good-natured
and generous even to extravaganza. he would
never be irascible nor pettish. The door to
the governors Office would ever swing in
ward for all, and the auditors of Gentleman
Jack would in every instance receive a pa
ticn6 and courteous hearing. His associates
on the republican ticket have more than
ordinary capabilities. Their services will
beneht the commonwealth and the people
Will seat all with Jack MacColl in the amen
corner at the capitol for the next two years. |
