LINCOLN, Neh.. March g.-tspeciaiJ-
The quandary in which the so-called pro-
gressive republicans find themselves
with their burden of duplex presidential
candidates is reflected in the cards SEQ

the voters. which are principally con-
spicuous by the absence Of any recon-
mendation for president or for vice presl-
dent. The card contains the names OF
the delegation slate. but is headed by
Norris for senator and Aldrich for gov
ernor, the idea being that these two will
pm the ticket better than would the
names Of Roosevelt and La Toilette. to
say nothing of John o. Yelser.
When Governor Aldrich's attention was
called TO this attempt to tie him up
with Norris and the others fathered by
Corrick, he promptly denied knowledge

DRIFT is NOW TOWARD TAFT
Change in Sentiment is Taking
Place in Minds of Voters.
WASHINGTON FARMERS TALK
Men Arc Beginning 20 See that His
Administration Has Been In
the Interest of All
Glasses.

BLAIR. Neb.. March s1.-(Speeial)--As
one travels about the state he cannot
but become convinced that a political
change is taking place In the minds Of
the voter and that President Taft is the
beneficiary. Men upon trains and In
other places who come In contact with
the people frequently speak OF the change
in sentiment and agree that it means
much for Mr.. Taft. ] talked with
large number of business men Of Blair
and with several farmers who live near
the city and was struck with the strong
sentiment in favor Of Mr.. Taft.
Walter MeCracken, a prosperous and
well known farmer living short dis
lance from Blair. said: President Taft
has made good president and should be
renominated and reelected. II is true
he has made some mistakes, but take II
as a whole his administration has been
a good business administration and the
future will show II. Speaking from the
standpoint of farmer. feel that a mis-
take would be made IL he should not be
selected. for the farmer has received
most generous prices for all the products
Of the farm since the Taft administra-
ton has been in power. This may not be
due to MIR. Taft. but while people are
charging him with the bad things We
must not forget TO give him the good
things do not think 1t would be good
business Judgment to make a change at
this time"
J. P. Henry. another well known farmer
OF Washington county who is a very
strong Taft man, said; President Taft
has done the best any man could have
done under the circumstances and there
fore Is entitled to a square deal at this
time. lie may not have done at all times
Just what would have suited us farmers,
but It Is pretty hard work 10 suit every
body and ! think the president has done
all In his power TO benefit the country
as whole. One thing that | like about
President Taft is that he has the cour-
age OF his convictions and does what he
thinks is right, irrespective Of whether It
will make him votes or not. We are 70
used 10 seeing the man running for Of
flee trim his sails to catch the popular
breeze that We hardly understand the
man who does things knowing It Will
lose him votes. No man who Is honest
in his statements will accuse the presi-
dent Of being anything else but on the
square, and that is Just the kind OF man
we want for president"
was told OF other farmers who were
outspoken for Mr.. Taft. but It was nearly
train time and alsoNsupper time, and this
water up here does make a fellow hun
cry. SO I made dash for the hotel and
later for my train. p. A. B.

IMPROVEMENT or FARM EGGS
Government Bulletin Contains Result
Of Careful Study OF Industry In
State Of Kansas.

Every reader should read circular
141 entitled The Improvement OF the
Farm Egg" issued by the department
of Agriculture, Washington, ID. c..
Among other things this contains the
results OF the careful study made OF
the industry in the state of Kansas,
where an effort has been made to
bring about an organization of the
egg industry and the cooperation Of
the state authorities for the purpose
of compelling the traders In eggs to
buy on a quality basis only. There is
no question in our mind but that the
result of the investigation in Kansas
will be that the ease count" system
will be discarded in the very near fu-
ture and there will be substituted in
its place the "loss-off" method OF buy
ing, says an exchange. When this goes
into force it will be squarely up to
the egg producer to handle his product
so that when 1t Is marketed 1t Will
be in first class condition. We pre-
dict that there will be a very radical
change IN the next few years In this
matter and as word to the wise is
sufficient, 1t will be enough to again
suggest TO our readers that they send
to the department Of agriculture.

BOYS BREAKING LIGHTS.
City Officials Report Hancock Youths

Some time ago II was found that the
tungsten lights used TO light the
streets of the city, especially those in
the neighborhood Of the lower park.
were being destroyed by boys who
make this their play ground.
The city officials kept their eyes on
the spot and finally cornered one Of
the boys concerned, and through him
learned the names of the other guilty
lads.
The parents OF the boys concerned
were notified that something would
have to be done and after short time
the parents agreed to settle with the
electrict light company for the lights
that ha5 been Destroyed
Last NIGHT, however il was found
that section OF the town was in dark
ness again and an investigation re-
vealed that the trouble was due 10 the
same cause. namely that the lights had
all been broken. The matter is outside
of the duties of the city officials ex-
cept insofar as the general destruc-
tion of property comes within their
jurisdiction. The police report that
they have a pretty accurate knowledge
of the circumstances and that they
intend to see that the guilty parties
are punished.
