GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DIE

After all, it takes a man with a Christian heart and a
sense OF duty to his community to denounce the Hopkins
Storz affair.
No citizen of Omaha can deny the fact that Richard
L. Metcalfe is the only Christian Mayor Omaha has had
for 40 years. Not only is he a Christian man, but he also
has the courage of his convictions. PROOF OF THE
ID is THE EATING. One of his own sons
walked into his office and said, Father a slot machine
company has offered me $4,000 if 1 get your permission to
let them bring their machines into Omaha" and father
answered his son, by not opening his mouth, but picking up
the telephone and calling the legal department and order
ed a resolution to be drawn up against the bringing Of
slot machines into Omaha. Later it was tried from an
other angle, with a more attractive figure and it failed
again.
The Mayors bad company may cause him to loose his
chance for reelection, but the least Omaha citizens can
say, for four and half years we have had a man with a
Christian heart in the Mayors office. We believe he is
trying to be reelected Independent Of en-tanglements, SO
ne will be free from any outside influence.
About three years ago some one made a complaint to
the Mayors office about the displeasure they received
from the Inspector Of Weights and Measures, Mr.. W.. S.
Metcalfe in an effort in getting by him in ~disobeying the
city ordinance, thinking at that time the Mayor was a tool
Of the Dennison Machine. The Mayor listened a~ttentively
to his complaint and the following month the Mayor or
dered W. S. Metcalfe, the Inspectors salary to be raised
$500 per month for a demonstration of honesty in the
capacity he had served the city.

We have also found upon investiga-
ton, that there was a pocket book mis-
placed, by a woman who was present.
we find a man present who was desir-
Gus to play a joke on one Of the guests
present. We have also found that
someone questioned two of the girls
who waited table, before the man who
played the joke was informed that the
loss of the pocket book had been IN
nounced.
Therefore, We, the Executive Com
mittee, are recommending for the Col

ate, Mr.. Arthur A. westergard. from
the charges that have been verbally
made upon him.

Political Organizations

The Douglas County Voters League with Mr.. Samuel
3. Klaver as president and G. G. Galloway vicepresident,
is the only political organization in this city campaign that
functions the year around, that is on the Job every day in
the year in the interest of equal opportunities to all and
special privileges to none.
1t was this organization with the fine cooperation of
Judge Rhoades that placed Miss Gertrude Lucas in the
Court OF Domestic Relationships, a position which she
holds today. 1t was this organization with the fine coop
Grafton of Governor c. w. Bryan and Commissioner Nc
Hughes, Jr. that placed the first three girls in the history
of Douglas County in the Douglas County Election Com
missioner's office. It was this organization through the
fine cooperation of Mr.. Robert Smith that placed Miss
Estelle Newland in the office Of the Clerk Of the District
Court.
1t was a committee from the organization that inter
viewed the following candidates: ". W. Carmichael, John
Hopkins, Harry Trustin, Blaine Young, Richard w. Jep-
sen, Roy N. Towl and Arthur A. Westergard, in the inter
est of fair play in the line Of the pro-rata Of our employ
ment in our city administration. We are indeed happy to
say to you that If the above gentlemen are elected for city
commissioners We will have their full cooperation in Sc
curing for our Colored youth their full p~ro-rata, not only
in the city's affairs, but in all publicly owned corpora
tons that we are forced to support by right Of franchise,
an equal opportunity for our boys and girls.
challenge anyone to name any office seeker that we
have to the voters Of Douglas County with
the exception of one occasion namely, OConnor, the
Register of Deeds, that has failed to cooperate with us
FULLY IN carrying out our program of equal opportunities
to all and special privileges to none.
Ii you are interested in opening up new avenues of
employment for the boys and girls that you are sending
to school, it becomes your full duty to give the Douglas
County Voters Leagues candidates your earnest con-
Grafton on Tuesday, April A, 1888 and stand by and watch
for results.
Strange to say, but an u~ndisputed fact, the Douglas
County Voters League is the only political organization
active in this city campaign, that does not accept cash con-
%tributions from any candidate. This is the only organiza-
ton that works the year round. 1t is your watch dog. It
co-operates with the Omaha Guide Working Men Com
missioners. The Douglas County Voters League is your
servant. You should vote the Douglas County Voters
League City Campaign slate straight. You will only be
giving yourself and your children a chance as full pledged
citizens in reality as we'll as in name. On Tuesday, April
q, look for, ask for, and get yourself and your neighbor a
little red campaign slate before you go into the voting
booth. 1t is your slate.

OMAHA'S

For more than thirty years Omaha's commercial and
industrial growth has been at a stand still. Owing to a
very serious condition of affairs.
Protected commercialized vice on the part Of our city
officials under the Influence Of a hidden power have i'm
peded Omaha's growth.
This power has been expressed and threatened with
destruction. It is up to the citizens Of Omaha to DESTROY
once and for always this great monster commercialized
vice. When once it has been done, Omaha's growth and
prosperity is assured.
With such men in office as Roy N. fowl, w. w. Car
michael, John Hopkins, Harry Trustin, Richard w. Jep-
sen, Blaine Young, this evil will be destroyed. The high
ways OF success will be open, Omaha will be recognized as
a safe place to live and a city of inviting opportunities for
business investments.
Every citizen of Omaha, both men and women, should
get behind this ticket and help clear the highway for bust
ness, success and prosperity.

FOUR REASONS WHY WOMEN SHOULD VOTE
blanche Smif

Blanche Smith
Women should vote because it is a patriotic duty that
each woman should perform.
Women with their high moral Judgment, participant
ing in politics will raise the standard of the City Govern
ment. This will also promote the filing for office of men
of efficient and good business ability.
Women voting for this type of men will develop a CITY
government that will protect the women and especially
the youth Of today.
Women should investigate the candidates from a broad
minded and unselfish stand point and select those best
adapted for the office and those that will render the best
service to the citizens of Omaha.
The Douglas County Voters League, an organization
established in 1924 has selected the following candidates:
Roy n. FOWL, Blaine Young, W. W.. Carmichael, John
Hopkins, Harry Trustin, Richard Jepsen, and Arthur
Westergard, believing them to be the most efficient candi-
dates for the various offices in the City Council.

uesday, April 4, 1883

Tuesday, April 4th, is history making day in Omaha.
Again the old Dennison machine is destined to die and
with it goes the little new disguised Dennison-B aldrige
machine.
It had to take the hideous murder of Harry Lapidus
to bring gangdom rule in Omaha to an end. It is the COM
mon saying that on April 4th, once for always, our city
government will return to the people where it ~rightfully
belongs.

Well the six cent raise in butter
fat means $500 per day for the
dairymen of Imperial Valley and
do they need it. Now when they
get another six cent raise they will
begin to get something for their
work.
Looks like we are going to have
cent hogs one of these days.
Chicago market this morning is
Az cents for hogs, wheat 70 cents
per bushel, corn 431a cents per
bushel, and the market still climb
ing. California buys one-third of
her pork outside of California, SO
how can we keep from having
cent pork by September. Dairymen,
feed your skim milk to hogs; there
is no place that beats Imperial
Valley when it comes to raising
hogs. We have the market, the feed
and the climate. More hogs mean
less mortgages. When I was in the
