There is a spirit of indC'pend-
epee abroad in thc land , and it is
\ thc most hopeful sign of those
piping days of peace and plcnty.
The United States has never before -
fore shown so much of individuality -
ity among thc people as is now
.cvidcnt. Men arc beginning to
, f. feel that the ballot is more than
, a privilege , it is a rcsponslbi1it\
The unit upon which the republic -
lic rests is growing \ and cxpand-
ing- in his ideas of duty and in
. ' . ' - to
cultivating a sil'c-a longing
measure up to thc requirements
. . ' of true citi.cnship :
The other day wc held an clcc-
. , tion , probably thc most rcmark-
able election this country has ever
seen Thc coup try was never so
prosperous ; its future was never
- so prosperous ; its people was nc\-
, cr so hopeful ; its people never so
unanimous in their poiitical a11c-
dancc And yet it was not part-
. , " isailship , it was not politics , it
was independence i , the expression
. of omen who love this country and
. .
- who want to do rig-ht.
The state of Massachusetts :
gave President Roosevelt eighty
thousand majority and ga'cYm. .
Douglas hc democratic candidate
for governor forty thousand ma-
jority. Was this thc result of
partisanship ? The state of Min-
. nesota gave thc republican can-
, . didatc for president 111\re than a
I. hundred thousand majority , yet
elected a clenlo ; vatic g-O\'crtlor.

The state of Nebraska gave
Ir- Roosevelt a plurality or more
r . : . than eighty thousand , and it ma-
jorty of more than fifty thousand
. ' . . yet it gave thc republican governor -
' : ' : : ' . ' - nor but nine thousand plurality
" and did not come within a thou-
' - . ' sand votes of giving him a ma-
\

partisanship ? No , No , it was independence -

thc outgrowth of many many
causes lmol1g- : which may be cited
thc personality of President
Roosevelt who puts his COltl1try'
welfare first and considers a pol-
itical party not as an end , but as
thc means to an CIIl. However
the current literature is a most
dominent faction in that it is educating -
ucating- thc pcople. The Ida
'l'aruel1 Standard oil exposures
that have been running in , Ic-
Clurc's magazine : and the Thom-
as Lawson excoriations of thc
men who arc responsible for
frenzied : finance" now being
published in i Bvcryholy's ( magazine -
dnc have lone more for America
than half the criminal laws up-
on the statutes. For years wc
have heard that publicity was the
remedy for trusts and like evils ,
yet until thc last : twelve months
the remedy has never been ap-
pliedThe late J. Sterling Morton -
ton years ago coined thc phrase
"publicity prevents political
prostitution" and wc all nodded
our heads in approval but did
nothing more. In thc fullness of
thc time there came a Theodore
Roosevelt , a Joseph Folk , a Chas.
Dcncm , a Jerome dl1d thc in ttga-
zincs and other publications which
encouraged them in their great
work and courageously stuck at
the criminals in high places by
exposing their infamy , and 10
and behold l , honesty has bccome
pODular and lHlepcndcncc a na-
tional characteristic.
'l'hc party which docs not heed
this condition will have ample opportunity -
portunity and sufficient leisure to
repcnt. 'l'hc rcpublica ! ; part ) is
not in power because it is thc rc-
puLlican party , but because thc
independent citizen : believe : , hc
can trust its candidatcs arid its
governmental polidcs. It will
1)c : : continued in power only dur- , .
ing" good bchavior. Even now
. , .
thc state press is asking 1 'will
thc legislature be organized by
thc Burlington or thc Union Pa-
cific ? But the other c'eningwc
heard a legislator elect say that
he regretted that these two rail-
roads should bc quarreling about
thc organization : and he was at a
loss to know how trouble could
bc prevented , to which another
legislator elect answer d- "lct
'cm fight , thc people should
organize : their own legislature
without interference from any
body or anything- " This attempted -
tempted domination i'3 i not peculiar -
culiar to thc republican party it
is one of thc evils which thc
dominant party always mccts.
In 1SfS T heard thc question ask-
cd of a prominent railroad man
,
" w tat is your road 1 g0111gto defer
for the republican tickct" to
which he replied "what better ( lowe
wc want than we have ? " and at
that time the state house was full
of ref r ncrs.

Too often overlook the practical side of a child's edu- ' !
cation. How is it with the children of ) 'OU1' household J
or those undcr your control ? Arc they saving ! money ? I !
H\\ ; they learned to appreciat.e the valuc of the dollar ? ' I
J
Are you endeavoring to inst.il into their minds correct
. ideas concerning thrift and economy ? \Vould , you listen - '
" ' . , ten to a plain suggestion ? I'
'
. If so , here it is :
\
Send thc children to this bank with - the first spare . t
dollar. Thc next dollar . or fifty cents should be treated I
, !
in like manner and thc practice so con inucd until a
, fixed habit of saving has been firmly cstablished.
In order to encourage the CHILDREN to save
their money , learn the ways of banking while young
and lay the foundation for a succcssful life , we inaugur-
: atcd a C1-1I L1)REN'S DEPARTIVrENT alld allow interest -
tercst at the rate of four per cent on childrcn's accounts
i under the age of eighteen. These accounts mean a
great amount of extra work for us , but if by these
.
means we succeed in encouraging the child in self de-
; : vial and the proper use of money , we shall feel well
; 1 repaid for the extra work performed.
. ! Will you assist us in our efforts to do the children
i good ( ? - _

'I'hese corporal ions have no
politics. Jay Gould could do
morc for thc Erie railroad with
thc legislatures of New York audi
New Jcrscy than any other man.
lie was once askcd "how is it
Mr. Gould that you control the
dCl110cra tic legislature in New
Jersey and thc republican lcg-is-
lature in New York-what is
your political faith any way ? "
"In New York" replied Could ! ; . "I
am a republican-in New Jersey
I am a democrat , hut I am an'
Erie man every where and every
timc. " If thc people will bc as :
non partisan in this opposition to
railroad domination as thc rail-
roads in their effects to control
the party in power a brighter
day for Nebraska will be showing
the grey light of its dawlI.

It must meet the responsihi1itcs
of the hour. It .must give to the
citizens of this ; state of what so
ever character full and cqual. It
must give to property , corporate
and private full and equal pro-
tcction. It must bc conservative ,
economical without being cowardly -
ly or t > arsi mon ious. The legislature -
lature should adjourn without
unnecessary delay , it should
quarantine thc lobby , pass such
needled legislation as revenue law
amcndments , a new road law , a
law making it a crime for any
Judge or member of the state
board to acccpt railroad transportation -
tation and illlY other mattcr of
inporancc to thc general wclfarc.
1'0 do ! this is to merit and receive -
ccivc the approbation of the
general public. Not to do this
is to ignore the most significant
condition of late ycars-the independence -
dependence of thc Amcrican vot-
cr.
