LOST IN AWILDERNESS
And Swallowed Bodily by the Bryan-
ized Democracy.
FATE OF NEBRASKA "POPS. "
Foreseen by a Nebraska VopulUt J. V.
Wolfe's Open letter to Gov. Holcomb.
A Tool of Democracy Holcomb' *
Record and Political Origin.
Lincoln , Neb. , Oct. 12. The tripar
tite deal in this state between Senator
Allen , Governor Holcomb-and William
J. Bryan , the result of which has been
the delivery of the Populist party of
the state , bound hand and foot , to the
democracy has been a source of unpleas
ant .reflection to many middle-of-the-
road Populists , and there is a very large
proportion of them that noc only resent
the sale and delivery , but are disposed
to make their objections known at the
polls in the most effective manner , and
in fpat the only way now left to them.
Ever since Governor Holcomb took up
the reins of office and began to show
his predilection for Democrats and a
disregard for the Populists of the state
• who had made his further elevation pos
sible , there have been many "kickers"
in the Populist party who have not hesi
tated to charge him- with betrayal of
their political interests. Republicans
have pretty generally held aloof and
listened ro the crimination and recrimi
nation from afar off , and have not been
disposed to take a hand in the family
quant 1 of the Populists and Democrats.
Just at. tlu\ juncture , however , when
Governor Holcomb is running a personal
campaign strictly for himself , and after
having still further shown his Demo
cratic proclivities by being a party to
the further betrayal of the Populists of
Nebraska into the hands of the national
Democracy , it is not amiss to quote
what a well known Populist of this
state thought about him and wrote con
cerning him in 1895 , less than 18 months
ago. That person is J. V. Wolfe , wheat
at the present time is a candidate upon
the Popocratic ticket along with Gover
nor Holcomb for the office of commis
sioner of public lands and buildings.
On May 1 , 1895 , Mr. Wolfe published
in the Nebraska State Journal a two
column article over his own signature ,
in which he excoriated Governor Hol
comb as few public men or officials have
been scored in this state for political or
official misdeeds Mr. Wolfe had been
a candidate for warden of the state peni
tentiary , as a Populist , but the appoint
ment was bestowed upon G.W.Leidigh ,
a Democrat. Mr. Wolfe's complaint
was not so much for himself , personally ,
as it was from the fact that the gover
nor had shown a disposition to ignore
the main body of his supporters , the
Populists , and reward a small minority
of his supporters , the Democrats. There
is probably nothing that a Republican
might say that would be given credence
or consideration 4by a Populist , but an
arraignment by one of their own num
ber is entitled to pass current among the
members of the Populist party. There
fore , remembering this arraignment by
Mr. Wolfe , the original has been brought
to light and portions of it are given be
low. Mr. Wolfe says in the opening of
his letter to Governor Holcomb :
Crimes and offenses of all kinds have
generally at lease one mitigating circum
stance. They are generally committed in
haste or without due considerationbut 3-ou
undoubtedly do not regard the act as a
crime or even as an offense , but eoupled
with a number of other appointment- a
similar nature , and especially wish Mr.
Dahlman's , another leading Democrat ,
made at the same time , and who was an
applicant for the same position , you are
charged with party perfidy and a deadly
assault upon ' "the Independent party"
organization in this state , and upon this
charge you will have to go upon trial be
fore the bar tV our people , and may God
defend the right.
After a somewhat lengthy defense of
his own motives , in which he states
that he too had come out of the Demo
cratic party , but that he considered the
Populist party "humanity's last and
only hope , " Mr. Wolfe proceeds to say :
I by no means think you are a bad man.
I only think you have proven your clf a
weak one. You are by no means tlie first
man. even in Xebmsk-i. whose "ambfcion
has o'crleaped itself. " The political high
way isever .vwhen .strewn with it- , wreck ? .
Men are more or lo > s ( .mil frequently
more ) like pigs. If fed on too rich food
they develop too much flesh for the amount
of hone , and especially btckbone. The
remedy , in the case of pigs , is to put them
on a diet of skimmed milk , and I can see
no rea-ou why it would not act as well in
one case as in the other. It may not be
your fault. You have neither been in a
po-ition , nor in the condition , since our
reform movement began , to be able to
grasp its full meaning. You have been in
good circumstances and drawing a liberal
salary. Your mind ha ? been occupied
more with law and with loans than with
distressed homos and an impoverished pee
ple. You did not , I believe , attend either
the Cincinnati or St. Louis conference , or
the Omaha national convention. You have ,
therefore , probably not been baptized with
the "baptism that is unto repentance. " I
am not speaking of or dealing with your
intentions. You arc too good a lawyer
not to know that all law presumes a man
to intend the consequence of his own acts ,
and the sooner you recognize the fact that ,
when you arc consorting with the Demo
cratic or any other party , you are nursing
at your bosom a torpid viper that , as soon
as it is warmed into life by Populistic
heat and strengthened by Populist nour
ishment , will turn on its benefactor with all
the accustomed vigor and venom , the
sooner you will see and realize the folly
of your course. * * * They ( the
Democrats ) may permit , and oven assist , a
chosen candidate now and then to come
into office , but it will be found generally ,
if not always , at the expense of all the rest
of the ticket ; and so small a victory may
mean more harm to us than a total temp
orary defeat. The old Democratic ship is
down deep in the trough of the political
sea , and of , and by itself , can never hi
fiafely harbored. It is both seaworn mid
unseaworthy , and Mr. Bryan and JI\
Blond have seen the approaching cati-

tropho , and have each lowered a silver
lifeboat and struck for the shore. The
one for help to save the old ship , the other
to "bidld a new one. Of the two , Mr.
Bland shows the mot senso. but there U
a method in .Mr. Bryan's madnoss. If you
and the Independent party will get aboard
Mr. Bryan's little silver skiff ho will row
j ou out to the old wreck and , if you will
help ic into harbor .igain. then will come
to pass the saying that "death is swal
lowed up in victory , " ( our dsath , I mean ,
and iheir victory. ) But my political bible
says that our party caunot live by silver
alone , but by every wo d that proceeded
out of the Omaha platform , until revised
or cbaugod.
Mr. Wolfe then reverts to Homer's
"Iliad" and brings forth the story of
the Trojan horse , by means of which
the Greeks captured the city of Troy.
The story is familiar to nearly all and
need not be retold. Mr. Wolfe's appli
cation of the legend is to show that the
Democrats had been using a "Trojan
horse" for the purpose of capturing the
Independent party ; and he fears that ,
by means of this strategy "a sufficient
number of men armed wirh the weapons
of our destruction , " have been placed
within the Populist walls with the same
intent. To this ho pathetically adds : "I
hope not , and yet I fear it may be so. "
After discussing the maimer of the
appointment , and insinuating that the
governor had been influenced by a priv
ate secretary ( Maret ) , or a Democratic
ex-congressman ( Bryan ) , or a United
States senator ( Allen ) , Mr. Wolfe closes
as follows :
My grievance , however , is by no means
a personal one. While I think I had a
right to expect different and better treat
ment , I have no spite to g"atify. It is
true that I have spent more time in trying
to build up and to advauco the partv's in
terests than you and all your appointees
put together , except Mr. Powers , ami the
movement has cost me more money than
you all , without an exception , yet I only
ask that our principles be adhered to until
enacted into law. Don't think for a mo
ment you can drive me from the party ,
for you will find me a stayer , and , if
necessary , a fighter anil I know 1 ho rank
and file too well to even imagine that they
are not going to stand with me , and by
me , shoulder to shoulder , in the future , as
in the past , as long as I stand for the right
and till the battle is finally won.
Hag Silas Holcomb Made a Good Governor ?
Considerable might be said on this
score. Superficially , yes. Essentially ,
no. From the beginning he assumed to
dictate to the law-making power. When
acts had become crystallized into laws ,
and those laws did not suit nis political
purposes , he assailed , their constitution
ality , and was invariably beaten. As a
member of the board of educational
lands and funds , he has constantly ad
vised the board to pursue an unconsti
tutional course in the investment of the
permanent school fund in general fund
warrants , even in the face of an adverse
decision of the supreme court , and has
gone out among the people and cast as
persions upon the law-abiding members
of that board because they had actually
complied with statutory requirements.
In the appointment of the heads of state
institutions he has been uniformly un
fortunate in the selection of men who
have been incompetent , bred scandals ,
and wilfully violated the law. The
Norfolk asylum , the Grand Island
Soldiers' home and the state peniten
tiary afford reeking examples of this
kind. It is not necessary , however , to
dwell upon these counts.
It is merely necessary to introduce
another Populist witness , Mart Howe ,
formerly steward of the Soldiers' home.
The charges preferred by Mr. Howe
during the past winter against the man
agement of the home are well remem
bered by newspaper readers. It will
also be recalled that an investigation
was reluctantly ordered by Governor
Holcomb. In the Nebraska State Journal
of March 14 , 1S96 , Mr. Howe tells how
that investigation was conducted , and
how the whitewash brush was used. To
quote from the article :
"In regard to the investigationhe says
that the governor told him the utmost
latitude would be given in the introduc
tion of testimony , but when the time
came the governor refused to admit a
great deal of the testimony , both oral
and in the form of affidavits. In addi
tion Mr. Howe alleges that persons em
ployed at the home were intimidated
and refused to testify to all the circum
stances with which they were familiar. "
Concerning the whole matter Mr. Howe
said : "If the legislature was in session
I would demand an investigation by
that body , which has power to send for
persons and papers , and with a fair
heariug I would be content to rest the
case. "
.In the State Journal of April 12 , 1895 ,
a correspondent scores Governor Hol
comb severely for his veto of the mutual
fire insurance bill , but this is not a po
litical arraignment and it will be passed
by , the intention of this article being
principally to show what Populists have
had to say about his political , official
and administrative acts. He is con
demned by leading members of the
party that elected him , and the fact
that no Democrat has taken his pen in
hand to find any fault with his admin
istration will probably be construed by
many Populists as a verification of the
wide open suspicion that his Populism
is not even skin deep while his democ
racy is bred in the bone.
Some Light Thrown on the IJiscovery of
Holcomb.
Previous to the nomination of Silas
A. Holcomb for district judge by the
Populists of the Twelfth judicial dis
trict he was unknown outside of
Broken Bow , where he had hung up a
lawyer's shingle.but was engaged in the
more lucrative occupation of loaning
money to Custer county farmers at
rates of interest that were not only
usurious , bnt exorbitantly so. The
judicial convention was held at Eddy-
ille , on the new line of the Kearney
and Black Hills railway , and somebody's
manipnlatiou had secured the location
there to prevent too much local pressure
on the part of the friends of a couple of
Populist candidates from Kearney. In
dications pointed to the nomination of

John Bariid or W. L. Greene. Holcomb
was unknown and unthought of. He
had never , at that time , been identified
with the Populist party and was only
known politically as a Democrat of the
old school , holding none of the modern
ideas of the embryotic Demopops of
that day.
When the convention met it was easy
enough to engineer a deadlock. The
convention continued nearly the whole
of one night , over 80 ballots being
taken , and at the conclusion Holcomb ,
the dark horse , won the nomination.
Who was responsible for Holcomb's
candidacy ? John H. Hamilton , presi
dent of the Kearney and Black Hills
Railway company. Hamilton was a
Virginia Democrat. He had made Hol
comb's acquaintance and there was an
affinity between them. Moreover , Mr.
Hamilton was building a new railroad
through Buffalo , Dawson and Custer
counties , all in the Twelfth judicial
district , and no one knew better than
himself the advantage to accrue from
having a "friendly Injun" on the
bench. So the loan agent and the creat
ure of a railroad president , became the
candidate of the anti-monopoly party
in the district.
Judge Hamer had incurred the hos
tility of the loan agents of the district
through his partiality for the farmers in
mortgage foreclosure cases. The result
was that every real estate loan agent in
the district snpported Holcomb , who
was elected by a small majority , not
withstanding the large Populist major
ity in the district , and he owed his
election to the good offices of a corpora
tion official and the support of his
brother loan agents in the counties of
Buffalo , Dawson , Custer and Sherman.
As attorney and loan agent , as judge
of the Twelfth district and as governor
of the state , enjoying official position by
virtue of Populist votes , he has ever been
a Democrat , has given as little as possi
ble in return for Populist friendship ,
has shown his preference in nearly
every essential instance for Democrats ,
and has conspired from the beginning
of his official career with members of
the Democratic party to turn the Popu
list organization of the state over to the
Democracy. This is virtually Mr.
Wolfe's arraignment. This is the sum
ming up of the evidence in his case.
This is the logic of the situation at this
moment.
