Frank II. Taylor: The republican confer

Lincoln last week ought to arouse the people
to the gigantic Job the republicans assumed
to the fact that $24, 900 OOO 900 defct cannot be

NJ. A. Brown: While the conference did not
sound any keynote, the speakers confounded the
enemies of republicanism with the summary of
achievement presented by Congressman Graham
and the arraignment of Hitchcock's record by
Chairman McCloud. The effect of the confer
ence is to justify republican faith and vindcate
the administration in all essential particulars.
Neigh Leader.
Congress Graham correctly sensed the
dominant issues in the coming campaign-re.
duction Of government expenses and a conse.
quent reduction in the tax burden, and relief
for the agricultural and business interests.
He made clear presentation Of what the
party has done in these matters and
also vital contrast when he put against the
claims of the democrats as to what they would
do if given power the facts as to what they did
with the country's resources when they had
power
Gering Courier.
A concrete statement of republican accom-
plishments in national achievements is startling
in its scope of economy and reduction Of expense.
Cannot expect full recovery from the plight the
nation found itself in at the end of the world
war to be reached in day nor even wholly by
legislation. Facts brought home at the Lin
coin meeting should inspire renewed confidence
in the good faith and sincere effort of the pres
ent administration.
Nelson Gazette.
The wholesome effect of the republican con-
ference at Lincoln and Congressman Grahams
expose Of the democratic waste is already evi.
dent. In confining it's deliberations to the study
of the publc's business rather than to further
gives evidence of superior wisdom and invites
confidence 1t has drawn the issue for the com.
ing campaign. The incompetency of the demo.
Gratis to handle public business and their utter
disregard for the taxpayers while they were in
power is not soon to be forgotten The people
need and want business men to represent them
in public administration, anG they are going to
look to the republican party to furnish these
men.
