Vote; Mathers Claims An
Even Break With Nc
Mullen in State.
Apathy Rules Voters
BY w. NJ. MAUPIN.

Norfolk, Neb., April 6--More ele-
ments are mixing into the present
primary campaign that ever before
entered into primary campaign in
Nebraska. The most active element,
II. a parody be permitted. Is the ac-
tivity Of General Apathy. The atti-
tude OF 20. what's the use" was new
er so general, and men who have
heretofore been active, and who never
before refused to express an opinion,
are inactive and wholly at sea.
1t Is certain, however that Norris
will have the German vote, which will
support him. Apparently nothing will
ALLEVIATE that support from him be-
cause 81 his attitude during the war.
This fact, however. is not without
compensating effect upon the Sloan
vote.
Sloan Active in War.
Sloan was a member of congress
when this country entered the world
war, and like Senator Norris voted
against the declaration of war against
Germany. But once the republic was
committed to the war program Mr..
Sloan spared no efforts to win 1t. He
gave every aid to the measures cal
oulated to equip, train and subsist
the soldiers of the republic. His
three sons entered the service, and
one of them paid the supreme sacri-
flee in France. Sloan's friends are
making these facts known to the vot-
ers.
Both Sloan and Norris were within
tl.eir rights in voting against get
ting into the war. This Is admitted
by all. Those opposed to Norris hold
that once in both should have stood
by their country to the limit.
Three Candidates Though Four Flied.
A survey of a half-dozen cities and
towns, since former letter. has not
served to change the impression tf6t
ir the republican contest for ue
cubernatorial nomination NcMullen
Is leading in what is really a three
cornered race, although there are four
candidates. Mathers' supporters IN
central and western Nebraska insist
that their candidate will at the very
least break even with McMullen IN
the country, and hold the edge IN
Douglas and Lancaster counties.
The Gustafsen vote Is the unknown
quantity, and upon that there Is
wide difference of opinion. Some con-
tend that his vote will be nominal,
while others believe that he will de-
eelop surprising strength among the
farmers. 1t would be easier to fore
cast were it possible to get line Oh
the Gustafsen vote and figure out
whether that vote will take most from
NcMullen or Mathers. The impress

Large Gifts to
Parties Flayed
by Idaho Senator
Corruption Will Exist as Long
as Contributions Are Made
to Political Organizations,
Says Borah.

Washington, April $50 long as
political parties seeking control OF
the government accept vast contribu-
tons from those interested in matters
Of legislation or administration. there
will be sinister and corrupt and con-
trolled government" Senator Borah,
republican, Idaho. declared in an ad-
dress before the students law en-
forcement convention.
I'm these days" Senator Borah
said, "the government deals with all
the vast concerns Of business. coal.
railroads, ships. oil. tariffs and It Is
simply intolerable that political par
ties accept vast contributions from
those yitaily interested in these mat
ters.
Call to Duty.
"These unusual sums are not given
merely because of the common inter
est partisans have in their parties.
Both political parties have for years
placed themselves in an indefensible
position in these matters.
Referring to revelations before sen
ate committees, Senator Borah said
these must not be accepted as an
Impeachment either of the American
form of government or of the ca
pacity of the people to rule. Rather
should they be accepted as a "call to
duty to preserve and hand on to pos.
terity that inheritance which our
forebears gave into our keeping"
Government Not Corrupt.
Through constitutional and lawful
means" he added. but In searching
and remorseless fashion. let US make
the hour OF reckoning q memorable
one. The days through which We
are passing are the agony. but they
may also he made the glory OF a
truly great and self governing people.
WAR brings waste and extrava-
gance. and then corruption.
But the people OF this country
are sound nevertheless. The govern.
'ment as government is not corrupt.
There are honest and faithful public
servants and loyal and patriotic con-
stituents. There are men and
women, thousands and millions OF
them, just as willing TO sacrifice for
the honor Of their country and just
as capable of serving the cause Of
clean government as were their fore
bears."
