) o ; 3 A | i: ) 1 STATE GENERALLY | LINES WITH G. 0. In Its . Twelve Presidential | Campaigns Nebraska Has | Mostly Gone Republican. NOTE THE VOTE BY YEARS | By A. R. GROH. Nebraska has participated in twelve presidential elections since she be- | came a state and she cast her vote for the republican candidate in ten of these. The only elections in which the majority of this grand old state’s vote went for the democratic aspirant were in 1896 and 1908, when Bryan, our na- tive son, carried the state by narrow margins. In 1900 our native demo- cratic son lost the vote of iis own state. In 1912 Wilson carried the state owing to the temporary rift in the re- publican party. But the vote of Taft and Roosevelt together was 17,897 greater than Wilson's vote. Some years the republican candi- date’s vote was more than twice that for the democratic candidate. Grant's vote was two and a half times as great as Greeley's in 1872, and in 1904 Roosevelt's vote was two and three- fourth times as great as that for Parker in Nebrask Incidentally it is interesting to .note how the state has grown, as indicated by the vote cast. In 1868 the votes for the two principal candidates to- talled 15,168. In 1912 they totalled 235913, In 1868 Nebraska had three votes in the electoral college. Today it has eight. ! Here is the way the good people of our g. o. p. state voted for president: 1868-—U. S. Grant (Rep.).... . 9,729 Horatlo Seymour (Dem.) . 5,439 1872—U. §.

Omaha Given Place On “King of Trails” Again Omaha has been placed on a new transcontinental highway. This time it is the “King of Trails,” run- ning from Winnipeg to Houston and the coast. This road was laid out as a result of a careful survey by.road engineers, instead of by political pulls of various town. It touches the fol- lowing going south: Winnipeg, Grand Forks, Fargo, Sioux Falls, Sioux City, Omaha, Atchison, Leavénworth, Kansas City, Muskogee, Denison, Dallas, Waco, where the road forks and touches San Antonio and Hous- ton, respectively. Registe?tad Voters Harrass Moorhead and Helpers On the last day’ of registration large numbers of voters already reg- istered and who have not changed their addresses visited the election commissioner’s office and presented cards which advised them to “register at once.” Through a mistake in tak- ing names from an old ‘list of voters | some political organization had been | sending out warning cards to a hosl! already registered. The error was| explained many times Friday by Mr. Moorhead and his assistants. i More Pine Ridge Indian Land on the Market Soon Another bunch of Pine Ridge Sioux land, some 160,000 acres, is to be put on sale November 15. The land is over the Nebraska line in South Da- kota and is appraised all the way from $1.50 up to $10 per acre. Most of it lies in Bennett county and is generally hard soil. In selling the Indian land the gov- ernment adopts two plans. One is an all cash payment and the other 10 per cent cash at the time of purchase, and the deferred payments extending over a period of three years, with in- | terest. | “Hello, There,” to Detective Costs Pedestrian Liberty Detective Felix Dolan, who sur- prised two men in the act of robbing the Ringle drug store, Twenty-fourth and Davenport streets, arrested a sus- Yrcl this morning at Thirteenth and Douglas streets.
