AS TO COUNTY OPTION.
The fact that Nehraska elected


The fact that Nebraska elected a
republican governor and state ticket,
and q democratic legislature, might
seem queer to an outside observer,
unacquainted with the situation. The
result can have but one meaning. The
only possible Interpretation of such an
election is that the people chose AID
rich and the republican state officials
because they had more confidence in
them than in Dahlman and the ticket
named by the democrats, without re-
gard to county option, and that they
chose democratic legislature because
they were not enthusiastic over county
option. The lawmaking body has
thus been made very close on the
option issue, while the other officers
have been selected because of their
superior fitness for the responsibilities
involved, as compared with Dahlman
and his ticket.
The News pointed out in advance
that there was more involved in the
governorship than county option. The
legislature is where the county option
was more of real issue. Apparently
the voters took this view and chose
the republican state ticket without
regard to option, voting for democratic
lawmakers with county option in
