REVOLT
IN NEBRASKA
CHEERS c. OPP.
Twenty-Five Thousand Demo-
Gratis to Line UP behind the
Republican Ticket.

LINCOLN. Neb., Sept. l6.-Although
the political situation is complicated
in Nebraska by the prohibition ques-
ton, which is to be voted on in No
yember, feeling of optimism per-
vades the headquarters OF the Repub-
lican state central committee.
Republican confidence is based in
part on the wet and dry issue as 1t is
presented. for while the party is not
committed to either side, the Republic
can state candidates almost without
exception have declared themselves
for the amendment. and Judge Abb
raham L. Sutton. nominee for COVER
nor is making his campaign largely on
that question.
Twenty-Five thousand Democrats, it
is estimated, will support the Repub-
lican state nominees, and while some
Republicans who favor the present
system Of high license to prohibition
will 80 to the Democratic nominee for
governor and perhaps to United States
Senator G. NJ, Hitchcock for re-elec-
ton, the proportion is believed to be
small.
Bryan Is Silent.
The Democrats who are openly es-
pousing the Republican state ticket,
are chiefly the followers of William
Jennings Bryan and his brother, May
or Charles w. Bryan, OF Lincoln. both
of whom are strongly for prohibition.
Bryan himself is silent on who he
is TO vote for for governor and sena-
tor. He bitterly opposed both Hitch
cock and Neville, the latter Democrat
ic nominee for governor, at the pri-
mary election, and since they were
nominated he has not seen fit to re-
tract the statements he made then
that they We're unfit men to lead the
party.
Bryan is expected to return to his
home in Lincoln in a few days TO re-
cuperato prior to taking the stump
in the middle West for the Democratic
national ticket. but whether he will
devote any time to Nebraska is prob
lematical.
Mayor Bryan is popularity supposed
to be for Sutton for governor and
Kennedy, Republican, for senator. but
he has never openly announced his
intention, and probably will not.
State Chairman Busy Man.
/ The optimism at Republican state
headquarters comes from the good re-
ports that sift in from the county
chairmen. Some Of 1t comes from the
knowledge that the campaign is being
pushed with good deal Of vigor and
intelligence.
/ Instead Of sitting around the head
quarters, as has been the custom in
the past, State Chairman Beach keeps
ns artp packed and spends most OF
his time out in the field. He pays reg
ular visits to the county chairmen,
/ holds meetings with the county COM
mittees, and manages to get an accu-
rate view Of the situation while he
is putting ginger into the fight in
each locality.

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
BY S. w. sTRAUs
PrrdArms Amerina" Sod'0 for Thin

cents in planting time two years
ago. He bought a package OF Gu
cumber seed with it and raised
nice patch of that vegetable for the
local market which brought him $6
in money. With SIS OF this money
he purchased eve lamb and cared
for it. Last spring the mother sheep
had two little lambs, so now the boy
has three sheep for his investment.
The mother sheep is worth $40 and
the lambs SIS each, making total
OF $40 he has earned with his 10
cent investment In a year and a
half. Besides, he sold the wool OF
the mother sheep for $2.45, with
which he has opened a bank &C
count. Now this boy has learned
his lesson on thrift and he knows
it's not luck, but that money makes
money when it's wisely expended.
Georgia is bringing up popula-
ton of capitalists through Its pig
clubs. The enrolment OF members
of the pig clubs for this year has
reached more than $500. The first

to be eligible as a member of a pig
club in Georgia a boy must own
pure bred pig and he must feed and
care for it in the manner outlined
in a course of instructions. There
are now seventy-two county pig
clubs. OF twenty counties that
have been organized for three

VETERINARIANS IN SESSION
(From a Staff Correspondent

Lincoln, Dec. l9.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-Contentions made by officials
of the Minneapolis & Omaha railroad
that it was for the purpose OF better
ing the train service that change in
time schedules was made over that
road that forbid certain trains out of
Sioux City to stop at South Sioux
City and Dakota City, were somewhat
battered today when officials OF the
road at the hearing before the Rail-
way commission admitted that the
principal reason for the change was to
do away with the custom of passen-
gers to and from Sioux City getting
on and off at those Stations i'll order
to save the interstate passenger rate
of four tenths of cent more than the
Nebraska rate.
!. The reason given for the change
was that the revenues OF the road had
been hit hard and General Superin-
tendent MacRae added that he be-
lieved the road was justified in taking
such action as would prohibit people
from seeking to make law inopera-
tive He also said that the two towns
had a better train service than any
other towns of their size in the state
and besides by cutting out those two
towns their trains were able to make
connections at other points where
heretofore a majority of the trains
were late.
Both sides of the controversy were
given time to file briefs.

WON'T CLEAN UP

Editor of The Journal:
have been citizen of Pensacola
for the last eight years and have al
ways taken pride in regards to keep
ing my front yard clean, but in the
name of common sense why is it we
are always asked to clean up our
premises to protect health? I for one
don't see what good it will do for
any man to clean up his place and
within one block of him surface clos
cts are allowed to thrive.
am not much of a kicker, but I
think some time I have got a good
big kick coming. It is most impossi-
BILE to sit on our front gallery eve
nings, especially if we have a south
breeze. Whose fault it is, am not
prepared to say, as I have notified the
inspectors as to these conditions.
I am with you good and strong, and
I offer you suggestion: Get and
| publish the names of any person il
Pensacola who does not clean or cause
te be cleaned up, their property
whether rich or poor.
We have sanitary inspectors wht
could very easily learn names O.
parties who don't clean up and the.

If the truth were known, the crown

It locks as if people sit up nights

editor. Having answered every ques-
ton imaginable from, Why is a re-

gamut, but the galley boy has just

guy to do when somebody says he was
best man at wedding and he wasn't

funeral shortly, but now that we
are in calmer state of mind, we
realize we might have advised him TO
take it as warning not to marry
in excess.
acknowledgements is mentioned as
a cure for infantile paralysis, but if
the truth were known, it only scares
it off.
Referring to the S25,000,0 900 taken
in last year by the movie houses of
the United States, the liquor people
complain bitterly that $5,000,000 of
this was stolen from the corner bar
room by one-time patrons who now
take their families to the moving pic
ture show instead of drinking it up.
But are the women and children COM
planning?
It strikes US that this shark scare
is merely a ruse to attract attention
while the Deutschland gets away I'M
observed.
While so much frenzied inquiry is
going on regarding the whereabouts
of various old-fashioned personages,
we wish to state right here that the
geek is still in our midst who stands
at the postofffce window to stamp
his envelopes while a dozen people
are waiting to buy stamps.
Still the question: "What happened
to the fight fans money!"
Millions for pork but not one cent
for protection, seems to be the watch
word of the politicians today, Judging
by the opposition of Senator LaFol-
lette to the navy bill.
The prohibition party have pu
themselves on record as wanting I
war with Mexico, and yet we have al
ways been told that it is booze tina

THE MODEL CHARTER,

Obeying popular demand, The Journal
will print in Sundays paper the Model
City Charter.
This document was prepared by the
National Municipal League, with head
quarters in Philadelphia, and is the last
word in city economics.
The Model Charter is an ideal charter
with slight notifications it has been applied
to number of cities throughout the United
States, and with slight notifications the
people would be safe in adopting the system
in Pensacola, provided the charter board,
than which no more representative body
has ever been chosen, thinks the TING ripe.
If the time is not ripe, the plan would not
work-no plan could, however good; per Sc.
Progressive citizens owe it to themselves
to give the Model Charter a careful study,
no matter what their prediction :
