RECORD OF CONGRESSMAN KIN
KAID.

CFrom the Valentine Republican,
1t Is with pleasure we briefly review
the record of Congressman Kinkaid as
with the approval of thousands of his
appreciatiye constituents, he is a can
didate for a denomination. Most OF
the people of the Sixth District will re-
member that Congressman Kinkafd
made his political start as a member
OF the Nebraska State Senate and that
he became one of the foremost and
most influential, though one of the
youngest, members of that body. Sew.
eral years after his legislative service
Mr.. Kinkaid became District Judge
and It has been ascertained by dis
tinguished jurist that his decisions car
peal, contained as few errors as those
of any judge of the state in proportion
to the time of service Of each.
1t should not be forgotten It was
Candidate Kirkaid who reclaimed the
Sixth District from fusionism after II
had been continuously represented by
Fusionists KEN, Greene and Neville
for twelve years The nominees OF
the republican party, excellent men,
too, having experienced successive de
feats until the election of Mr.. Kin,
kaid, likewise having in his first two
efforts failed of election to Congress
Homesteading.
The Congressman greatest legis
lative achievement IS his One Section
Homestead act, generally known a;
the "Kinkaid Act" Well may he and
his constituents be proud of this
homestead Law because it is generally
estimated 10 be the most popular OF
any act ever passed by Congress af

A SOLEMN WARNING
BY W. J. BRYAN
JUST EIGHT YEARS AGO

"THE FIGHT THIS YEAR WILL
BE TO CARRY OUT THE SENTi-
MENT OF THAT SONG WE HAVE
SO OFTEN REPEATED, my CoUN-
TRY IT'S OF THEE;' lF WE LOSE,
OUR CHILDREN AND OUR CHILD.
REN's CHILDREN WILL NOT sUc-
CEED TO THE SPIRIT OF THAT
SONG, AND CELEBRATIONS OF
THE FOURTH OF JULY WILL PASS
AWAY, FOR THE SPIRIT OF EN-
PlRE WILL BE UPON us."-(W.
j. Bryan, In Welcoming the Bryan
Home Guards and Travelling Mems
Club on their return from the National
Convention, Saturday, July 7, 1eoo.)
The Democrats prate loudly about
campaign publicity. Republican Ne.
braska has publicity law which the
Republican State Committee observes
to the letter while the Bryan democ-
racy, through "Brother-in-Law Tom"
and Cowboy Jim," ignores the, law.
Treasurer Sheldon of the Republican
National Committee declares that he
| will publish all campaign contribu-
tions received by him. thus comply
ing with the New York law. With
the Republicans, campaign publicity is
| DOW a fact; with the Democrats, II
IS promise supported by a failure
t. perform.
This year the Republican state
ticket will be supported In the cam
paign by the best record made by
any administration in the states his
tory. The Democratic ticket will be
supported by the political agents Of
the great railway corporations doing
business in the state. The voter must
decide whether he will face forward
under the banner borne by Governor
Sheldon and his Republican associates,
or face to the rear beneath the banner
OF the allies-democracy and the rail-.
reads.
Mr.. Taft Is broad In mind, with
big heart and well equipped to be
the chief magistrate OF this country.
AS lawyer, he has no superior. An
an administrator, he has won world
wide renown, and his work I'm that
particular will be historic. He is pure,
brave, firm and kind, and will make
one of the greatest American presi-
dents. II Senator Beveridge)

The Nebraska Republican Conven.
tion Of 1907, which gave its unqualified
last Republican legislature, and which
nominated that magnificent Nebraska
jurist, M. b. Reese. for judge of the
Supreme Court, was the first state
convention in the United States to
President. 1t should be matter of
pride on the part OF every Nebraska
Republican to see to it that Nebraska
approves this endorsement at the polls

Reared on a Farm.
Mr.. Kinkald was born and raised on
a farm, and that he has been cup
against the real thing IN farming is
evidenced by the fact that in the har-
vest field he raked and bound grain
aud kept up with the GRADER when but
16 years of age. A lawyer by pro.
fession, he has yet been directly inter
ested In farming during the most OF
his business career. He was pio.

CORA goats In Nebraska and has intro.
duced other pure breed live stock.

menced to emulate the example of old
settled states by continuing its Repre-

more than two or three two.year
terms. Influential Congressman are

The speech OF Permanent Chairman

American people, denounce him and
his policies?
