A man who has an inaulring mind deliv-
cred himself something like this the other
dag:
'It looks funny to me to see a man run
ming for mayor who couldn't qualify for
councilman. To be a councilman. you
know, a man must own real estate In the
city. According to all l can learn, Jim
Dahlman doesn't happen to own anything
that looks like house or lot in Omaha
Therefore he couldn't serve the city in the
council. It seems ridiculous to me to ask
the people to vote for him for mayor under
the conditions. Dahlman says he pays
taxes on his home, but 1t stands in his
wifes name. That explanation, however,
won't go down"
One of the pet charges in the Dahlman
repertory is that Benson has said Moth
ing about personal liberty" notwith-
standing that Mr.. Benson has repeated
over and over again that he is distinctly
in favor of allowing every individual as
much personal liberty as is obtainable so
long as IL doesn't conflict with the rights
of his neighboTs To emphasize the point
a bulletin has been issued from republl-
can headquarters reading:
Don't be fooled on the candidates before
| the people in this city campaign. Take
/ time to investigate the republican candi-
dates all of them. The interests liberties
/ and privileges of the people will be pro-
tected. fostered and guarded by them. Any
