Dietrich. They are conducting a campaign of villainous decoction. Every time ono of these false reports is lu- voqtlgatcd It Is invariably found to be untrue. It would bo a gross Injustice should Governor 1'oynter bo elected by voters who have been Influenced by false reports concerning Mr. Dietrich. Poynter's public record is that bad that falsehood could no' ' , make It worse. Ills management of the state Institutions has been shameful lu the highest conceivable degree. It would bo a public misfortune to re-elect him and continue the reign of politicians over affairs of the state two moro y6ars. SURRENDERED TO TAMMANY. Uryan Is the first democratic can didate for the presidency , from Tilden to Cleveland , that ever surrendered to Tammany. All the other candidates on the democratic ticket have man fully refused to recognize Tammany. Tammany has always claimed as the price for Its support the right to cou- 'trol ' and distribute all the federal ap pointments In the state of New York. No man of high moral standing woul.l consent to such an Illicit compact an.l the result Is that for years Tammany has failed to take concentrated interest - , est In the national elections and has confined Its efforts to preying upon the metropolis. It was Grovot Cleveland's stubborn light against that Iniquitous organization that lad that sturdy ok democrat , General Edward Bragg of Wisconsin , speaking In the democratic national convention , to remark : "Wo love Cleveland for the enemies he has made. " It Is a matter of history that honest democrats everywhere have kept aloof from Tammany Hall. David B. Hill , one of the leading democrats of thenatlon _ , only a few weeks ago In a public speech denounced Tam many as "a monster of vice , Ignor ance and persecution. " Hill at that time , wus making a speech In support of Bryan , but that did not stop him from placing the brand of vicious In- Itiulty on Tammany. But along corned Mr. Bryan , the man from Nebraska , the "reformer" of reformers , anil startles the honest men of all parties by riding through the streets of New York with Boss Crokor ad a compan ion nnd following it up by proclaiming In his speech In Mndldon Sauare Gar den that same evening : "Great Is Tam many , and Crolter is Its prophet ! " Other democrats less loud In tholr pro fessions of decency than Mr. Bryan have refused to have anything to do with Tammany , and Mr. Bryan's ac tion in this respect will not only cause many of his adherents to view the as pect with disappointment , but will strengthen belief in the accuracy and truthfulness of other reports concernIng - Ing him which many have been slow to believe because of his supposed In tegrity. The simple fact of the matter - tor Is that the bargain between Bryan and Tammany has been struck and everybody with any knowledge of pol itics knows the consideration , in this as In all other respects Bryan and his advisors brush aside the logic of ox- porlonco and history. It Is a matter of history that Tammnny's most de structive Influence In national politics Is Its support. The mcro fact that Tammany supported a candidate In times past has been enough to turn chastened sentiment against him. The record of the organization is so preg nant with iniquity that Its opposition la the strongest certificate of charac ter any candidate or any party could have. Dick Crokor. its chief , came to the position a poor man. yet in a few years , wHh no other way of accumu lating a fortune than by fraud and the eaalls of ofllco in New York City , ho ID already several times a million aire. Tammany has been for years ru- gnlcd In the public prints and de nounced from the public rostrum as a monster of vlco and corruption and nobody has dared to deny these dras tic Impeachments. The thievery and corruption of this organization was so openly manifest that denial was use- leas. For years It has had Its tenta cles fastened upon the government of Now York , with the result that It takes $ [ )0,000,000 ) per year to maintain municipal government In tlmt city , or nearly onn-llfth of what It costs to run the entire government of the nation. It will bo observed , theieforc , that Tammany Is not In politics for Its health. This In the organization tint has made its truce with Mr. Bryan. Tamiiiauy's support ha always been an olomcnt of weakness , and with a record shaking under the weight of its own rottenness It must continue to be. Hy this alliance Mr. Bryan may and will secure the slum clement of that great city , but he will lose the support of decent democrats , which will send the republican majority in the state high up In the thousands. It is quite apparent that Bryan has been tricked by Boss Croker. Croker knows as well as anybody that public support by Tammany in national cam paigns will defeat any ticket. But Croker Is looking out for 190 J. He is bent on defeating David B. Hill at that time , and he must in order to succeed have control of the municipal machin ery of New York City. Cunning poli tician that ho Is , he has laid his plans well. Disastrous as the alliance with Bryan will be to Bryan H Is the only hope Croker has of retaining Tam many's grip on New York City. Shoul 1 Bryjn bo elected Croker would of course be the power lichlnd the throne In state If not In national affairs , but his eye Is set PII conditions four years hence. But how will Mr. Bryan's "re form" friends In Nebraska view this latest performance ? Will they calmly yield to the party lash , or will they resist the affront ? In other words , will they uphold a candidate who "re forms" by going over to the enemy bag and baggage ? The popocruts pro fess to favor lioucat and economical government. How can they reconcile this profession to the alliance between Bryan and the most subtle , corrupt and Iniquitous political organization this country has1 ever known ? NOT AUTHORIZED. It develops , however , that Darnall'a use o fthc Anti-Saloon league to pro mote the candidacy of Governor Poyn tcr Is absolutely without authority. Frank Carpenter of Omaha , vlco president of the league and a member of the Carpenter Paper company , ono of the largest establishments of this kind in the west , when asked If the league had authorized Darnall to take action against Mr. Dietrich , > said : "Positively no. I regard Mr. Dietricn as being a thorough and substantial business man and good citizen. I feel confident that no better , safer or ex perienced man can be found. I know Mr. Dietrich well enough to know that the temperance cause is perfectly safe In his hands , and safer than * It would be In the hands of some who just at this time profess to be so keenly con cerned about it. I regard Mr. Diet rich as being one of the very best citi zens and a man neither politicians nor schemers can control. Ho will do what he thinks is right regardless of consequences. SOLD OUT TEMPERANCE. In an Interview with Dr. Lang upon the position taken by Governor Poyn- ter nnd his friends towards the tem perance people of this state , he said : "I was chairman of the York county populist delegation of the state con vention which nominated W. A. Poyn- ter In 1898 , and it is amusing to note the position that the friends of W. A. Poynter have taken and the arguments they are using that the 'temperance people of the state should not vote for Mr. Dietrich as against Mr. Poynter. ' of Mr. I was an ardent supporter Poynter's candidacy In 1898 , as I b'J- llevcd there was a demand at that time that a man of temperance repu tation bo nominated. I remember well the long and tiresome siege that the populists had at that time In Lincoln persuading the democrats that Mr. Poyntcr was a fit person to become governor of the great state of Ne braska. Many of the populists who formerly were republicans , nnd some of us who had affiliated with the pro hibition people of the Btate , were In clined to stay by Poynter at all hazards were informed that ha ards , as we was a temperance man. We could not understand why the democrats should have been so persistent In their oppo sition , after agreeing that we shouM designate the man for governor , but Poynter , being an unknown factor to many of the populists , they were In clined to weaken and give way to the demands of the democrats. The dem ocrats Insisted that they would not suport a man whom they had any sus picion was tainted with prohibition personality. The fight wu long and hard and lasted until the wee hours of morning. When the convention ad journed a committee was appointed to see if they could not agree upon some other candidate oriomo futura action. I remember that the cele brated Edgar Howard , who Is now running for congress in the Second congressional district , held the hon orable position of chairman of the democratic party nt that t'.tne. At the Llndoll hotel he stated , when asked why the democrats were holding out against Poynter , "that of all the hard things In this world for n democrat lode do was to take water from a popu list convention. " This statement gave away the whole thing and the popu lists renewed their courage and were determined , after being refreshed , that they would go back and light It out. When the populist convention had con vened a stampede was made to throw Poyntor over the transom. This was planned and encouraged by the dem ocratic allies und a few delegations of the populists who had opopsed Poyn- tor's nomination. Seeing that not'i- ing could bo done the democrats de manded that Mr. Poynter should ap pear at tholr convention and make clear his position toward the temper ance people of the state nnd whether ho were tied up with them. HP ap peared before them , and. much to the chagrin ami humiliation of his popu list friends , who had stood by him from the first , he said : 'I am from Kentucky and you understand my po sition. ' and immediate a motion was made thnt they endorse his nomina tion , and It was carried with a'whoop. . To say tlmt the populists were embar rassed by the position he had taken mildly expresses it. as there was no such Issue before the people. llad this been the last of tj ) matter tli-j peopullsts and tcmpeiy fcc people Of the state could have foi gotten the entire - tire deal. 'Iho least that could h ? said about It at that time was tlmt ho was a very weak man or he nevrr would have yielded to the demand made upon him. Nothing else could be done at the time nnd the different clbmcntr composing the ftinlon forces rallied and congratulated themselves , believing that he would straighten up and show .his . mettle later In the cam paign. Among the different elements tha composed the fusion party wera the prohibition people who desired to express Uit'insnives and to have recog nition. They were allowed to ratify and to congratulate Mr. Poynter upon his nomination. Ho assured them that they had his sympathy , but his fu ture actions disappointed them. When they asked the privilege of placing hla nnmo and that of Lieutenant Gover nor Gilbert at the head of their ticket , having been led to believe that thov sympathized with them , upon he tem perance Isstica of the day , they were refused this courtesy. The prohlbi- tlonsts have not to this day forgotten the cool reception Poyntor gave them , and although he and his supporters arc out slandering Mr. Dietrich , the can didate of the republican party for gov ernor , and holding up their hands in horror , warning the people against any supoprt that he may receive , It will not have much weight with those who remember the deceit nnd double- handed deal that ho made at his nom ination in 1898. The argument at that time that li ekncw that If he allowed his name to go upon the prohibition ticket would lose him many votes , clearly shows the character of the man. The fact alone would not have mucn significance had the matter dropped there , but his association and the rec ognition that ho has given to the worst element In the political arena of any par y In this state will not only condemn him with the prohibition people , but with all respectable pee ple."Tho "Tho malicious and uncalled for at tacks made upon flip. Dlettich and falsehoods that are continuously cir culated have already reacted , as it Is simply another deal to mislead honor able people and to cover up the ac tions of Poynter and the fearful weak ness that has shown In recognizing an clement which cannot be tolerated by respectable people. Ills appointees ol the Fire and Police commission of Omaha stand out as a warning to ev ery re pectable man that l < o cannot bo trusted in any manner in the futuro. One of the hardest fights over made In this state , that common 'decency ami respectability should have a standing in our state Institutions , was at Be atrice , when Investigation showed that the whisky bottle was the sole cause of the disorganizing elements. When Governor Poynter was obliged to face the proposition he chose rather to stand by the bottle , stating that It was mirely democratic and and should have recognition. What was equally as bad was his appointment of Walter Moise , a notorious liquor dealer at that time and now , as colonel on his staff. "I am not surprised , at the present time , that the only recommendation that he is seeking Is to'flander and blacken the character of his opponents. Governor Poynter's reputation and standing toward the temperance people ple Is considered in the sumo light as his reputation for truth nnd veracity is bythose who have had dealings with him during his executive career. There Is not a county In the state but can be found many men of his own party and former supoprters who nro absolutely obliged to admit that hia word is absolutely worthless. " LINCOLN , Oct. 2G. Up to date 'out one candidate for the United States senate has petitioned the secretary of state to place his name on the official ballot. Under the law the voters may at the polls express preference for United States senators. The names of candidates are printed on the ballots without a party designation. Nearly 10,000 voters signed petitions asking the secretary of state to , put Ed\vard iloseWatcr's name on the official bal lots , which was done according to law. In this connection Mr. Rosewatcr has made the following appeal to voters : For moie than a Quarter of a century I have advocated the election of Unit ed States senators by direct vote of .he people. All efforts to secure this right for the people by amendment of the constitution of the United States , however , have failed up to this time. The nearest approach to pop ular selection of United States senatois has been made in thin state , where the people nave a right under the sUte constitution to instruct their represen tatives in the legislature by an expres sion of reference at the ballot box. In pro'of of my sincerity as an advo cate of the direct popular election of senators I have appealed for an ex pression of public sentiment under the constitutional provision by having my name placed on the official ballot at the coming election. While standing upon the declarations of the repuollcan party In its national platform , I am committed also to certain reforms which In my judgment are demanded in the Interest of the American poo- nlc. 1 am in favor of the establishment of postal savings banks in which th ? earnings of the people will bo safely guarded through panic and depression. I am in favor of the postal telegraph and the widest extension of postal fa cilities to the people. I believe that corporations arc crea tures of the stale that should bo reg ulated and controlled by the state Willie I uivor public supervision of corporations , I nm by no means in fa vor of confiscating their property , eith er by prescribing ruinous rates or ex cessive taxation. In other words , 1 favor such legislation as will protect the people against extortion and dla crimination by corporate monopolies but at tlio same time nm opposed to any legislation that would prevent thorn from earning fair Interest on honest Investment. My career In Nebraska , which covers a period of thirty-seven years , is a sui- flclent guaranty that if elected to Cho United States senate I will labor with all my ability and energy to promote the welfare and material prosperity o the state and nation and will always hold myself accessible to every citizen of Nebraska who has a claim upon m > services or time , no matter how hum bio or poor.
