Mcdonald has by far the best of it, be-
cause Hoye and Donahue will divide the

and besides the solid Scotch support he
has a large following in the country as
well as in South Omaha and Omaha. He
made a very wide acquaintance during his
term as sheriff, and his business partner,
Police Commissioner Broatch, is not idle,

"Oh, yes!" exclaimed a staunch sup
porter of Hoye, I'VE know Johnny is fore
handed in politics and knows how to reach
out in every direction. We know too, how
he is carrying on his campaign in the

along the Elkhorn and carried with him all

to bring every farmer in the neighborhood

all the beer and whisky they wanted to

"A good many politicians on both sides"
said an old-timer will be surprised at
the heavy vote that viii be polled at next
Tuesdays primaries. In the first place, the
fact that Tuesday will also be the day Of
registration for the November election Will
bring out a great many voters who would
not otherwise take the trouble TO attend
a primary. The opportunity offered them

candidates at the same time will be great
inducement for them to turn out In the
next place, the polls, which under the old
system were open from noon until p m,
will now be open from in the morning
until 9 at night. or very nearly double the
length Of time, and the chances are there
will be more than twice as many votes
cast as at any preceding primary Of both
parties combined. The participation Of men
Of all parties on the same day and at the
same place cannot fail TO stimulate a
marked increase in the vote, and, last but
not least, the fact that the voting machines
will be on trial will tend to attract voters
to the polling booths"
