Majority. =
GEORGE TALKS OF OUTLOOK


Lincoln, Aug, 81. - (Special) -
South Dakota will poll big vote for
Hughes and the republican ticket in
November, according to a. h. Beau
mont, secretary of the South Dakota
live stock sanitary board, who was in
Lincoln today to confer with State
Veterinarian Anderson regarding live
stock conditions of the two states.
Mr.. Beaumont said that the pro-
gressives were all for Hughes as a
general thing and South Dakota
would be found strongly in the re-
publican column as usual
Reports coming TO republican state
. headquarters continue to be very sat
isfactory. Chairman Beach and his
assistants are on the job all the time.
In the short time Mr.. Beach has had
hold OF the steering wheel of the G..
o. P. ship, he has got in touch with
nearly every county organization and
now knows where to put in the work
where it will count,
Indications that the state will be
strongly republican, are not causing
the chairman to let up any in his eff
forts.
Going After Big Victory.
I'VE are not going to be satisfied
merely with carrying the state for
the whole ticket" said Mr.. Beach to-
day. IF. the committee can be in
strumental in helping along that de-
sired condition, we are going to work
all the harder 10 make the victory SO
decisive that there will be no ques-
ton where Nebraska stands.
Men from out in the state who are
in close touch with the condition in
their portion declare that Nebraska
will go for the head of the ticket all
the way from 10000 to 10000. We are
not going to stop at that. If we arc
assured of that much now we are go
ing to make it larger if possible.
There is little doubt but that we are
growing stronger all the while. In
efact, we know it.
1.-THE other fellows are trying to
fool the voter into the belief that our
apparent prosperity is the result of
democratic wisdom in handling af
fairs, but they are not getting very
far. The average farmer knows on
which side his bread is buttered and
he knows Just as wepll as anybody
what is bound to come il this demo-
cratic administration continues and
has to face conditions which will con-
front us when the European war is
over. II the democratic party cannot
handle the business of our country
without running behind under condi-
tions such as we have had the last
two years, what in the world will they
do when the war is settled over there
and we face really completing prob
lem. The average voter is wise to the
situation and this committee knows
it."
South Nebraska in Line.
Walter A. George, former state
chairman of the committee, visited
headquarters today. Mr.. George has
been in a business trip through south
ern Nebraska and says he sees moth
ing but republican victory all along
the line. at is foolish for anyone to
think that the democrats are gong
to win in this state. 1t isn't in the
air. This country is going &c. be re-
publican after the fourth OF next
March," said Mr.. George. END ecen
the democrats who are not looking
for something in the way OF a Job,
feel that way The fellows who arc
personally interested arc out over the
state trying to TOOL the voters into the
belief that Wilson will be elecedd, but
they are not getting very lar with IL,
IF you will remember tour years
is about all the country mas peen
able 10 stand OF democratic rule at
one time for the last fifty years, and
their four wears this time will be up
