The Illinois issue. (Chicago, Ill. ;) 1906-1912, 1910-09-30


TO the Voters of Nebraska:
That the issues of the present campaign may be
clearly defined; that all electors may have chance
to express themselves freely in the choice of gov
ernor while one candidate of the dominant parties
represents the liquor element of all parties, and an
other candidate is squarey in favor Of a county OPP
ton law Hon George T. Wright prohibition cand
date for governor has withdrawn this action being
taken after conference with Prohibition party lead
ers and with the approval of the Prohibition state
committee
While the present crisis is here through seek
ing of our party, the committee believed that the
overwhelming majority of prohibitionists desired to
unite in this campaign with good of all other
parties to make certain the defeat of the represent
ative Of the brewers and their allies.
All votes cast for governor this year will be
classed as ''wet'' or ''dry'' The dominant issue,
county option has already forced such alignment.
The Prohibition party chooses to rally to the sup
port of the county option candidate and thus place
our influence unquestionably against the man who
would continue brewery control of state politics.
Decline to Assume Responsibility for Threatened
Defeat of the Local Option Candidate
While are loyal to our party, we are first loyal
to our state and its cherished institutions The
cent policy of the Prohibition party of Nebraska has
been to withhold legislative candidates in the dis
tricts where there was choice for the temperance
side between nominees of the other parties This
policy resulted two years ago in placing about thirty
representatives and senators in the legislature who
would doubtless otherwise have been defeated, all
of whom stood for advanced temperance legislation.
The step now proposed in way implies that we
less loyal to party less Jealous than formerly
for the final of this great political organiza
ton. 1t does indicate that we decline to
sponsbility for and that we will use our best
deavors to avert threatened catastrophe
As this unusual condition exists only to the
head of the ticket the remainder of the Prohibition
state ticket merits most active and united sup
port
We believe the policy for which candidates
stand the most reasonable and needful of any adj
vanced for the approval of the people Our vote
this year should be the largest in the history of this

great reform. The new voters coming to us will be
drawn from all other parties.
The lines of the dominant issue are so clearly
drawn that intelligent voter need make any
mistake
We therefore appeal to all good citizens to join
with in encompassing the defeat of that cand
date for governor whose election would place our
prosperity in jeopardy sacrifice the interests of the
home the school, the church and society," and satiate
the selfish lust of the brewers and distillers with
their horde of criminal and immoral parasites.
Let stand a solid phalanx in the mainten
of good government. Let help protect the
fair name of this great state Let every voter be at
the polls election day for the support Of clean
government to the end that may lay the founda
ton for greater achievement and more signal vic
tories

The New Football Rules

The most important and most effec-
tive new football rule undoubtedly is
that which provides that there shall be
no pushing and pulling of the runner
with the ball by his teammates. which
practically means that the interference
will be ahead of the runner, and there
will be no assistance to push or drag
him along when he is checked.
Outside of this there is one which
will require even more the argus eye of
all the spectators and officials The
rule is that any player tackling another
must have at least one foot on the
ground at the time of making the tao
kle. Just how this will work out and
how literally it will be ruled no man
can tell, for it is undoubtedly true that
when a man is making a long run in
the open and an opponent comes across
to head him off, the opponent, at the
time of tackling, has both feet off the
ground at the same time. Walter
