the opinion Is expressed that the surrender
to tho clnraor of federal officeholders was
a serious blunder that will require nn Im
mense amount of hard work to raako good
if It can bo done at all.
The comment on the makeup of tho state
ticket continues favorable. While Dietrich
Is not known to bo an orator ho Is regarded
ns a votegetter who will make up In
hustling what ho lacks In voice. Tho other
mon on tho ticket are cotuldetol nbovo the

goes, a groat way In encouraging the younger
set of party workers who have been kept In
tho background so long.

Opinion u UeiiiililliMin Ticket,
BEATRICE, Nob.. May 3. (Special.) A
number of tho prominent republicans of tho
city when asked to express their opinion of
tho ticket nominated at tho stato convention
replied as follows:
R. W. Sablu I think the ticket a strong
one and well divided. It will, meet the ap
proval of tho entire party and the voters In
general throughout the state. 1 consider the
governor an especially strong and happy ap
pointment as It will assure tho support of
the German olomcnt this fall. This Is some
thing that tho republican party has not had
at the last two elections. I have not met a
lngle-lerman, but that Is pleased with the
selection.
Samuel Rinaker-nl tolnk tho ticket Is all
right. I don't bpjlevp a stronger or better
vottt-pcttlfig ticket could bo put up. Every-,

Slitccn to One Xot Mentioned.
Tomporary Chairman Jeremiah B. Sullivan
of Crcston received tremendous npplause In
responso to bla denunciation of trusts and
Imperialism and his endorsement of Bryan
for president. Nowhere In his speech did ho
mention 16 to 1. Stnto Chairman Goorge A.
luffman Introduced Sullivan, Tho speaker
said In part:
Tho -declaration of Independence an
nounced at Chlcngo In 1896 will never die.
"Tho democratic party stands for bimetal
lism and ever will. It Is opposed to n monoy
trust as much as It is to a sugar trust. Tho
common people of this country of all classes
rc for bimetallism. Thirteen million so
expressed their wishes' In 189B and there Is
no ovldence that they havo changed their
mind from that day to this.
"The trusts must go a'nd there Is but one
party that can and will accomplish It, and
that Is tho democratic party. You cannot
hope the republican party will crush tho
trusts. Do ypu expect, a father to chastise
his most obedient son? .These, gigantic ln-
tltutlops must bo. controlled, If possible, ex
tinguished If necessary.
Tho constitution of our land Is sufficient
to control and does give to tho congress of
our country plenary power on this great
question.
"Imperialism, militarism and trusts are
one. They mean a gigantic. consolidation and

united. 'Imperialism i'-cahnotbo-tra ksuecis,
without a standing army. Tho-youth of this'
country wer not.lnJenJed by wao or. pod1
to become soldiers nt home or In a foreign,
land.
"We have today a standing army larger
than ever before. Tho tramp of tho soldier
s a strange thing In a republic except for Its
defense. A standing array bodes no good
to a free peoplo; if maintained it will lead
to but one end dlcatorshlp.
"The lnflnlto God gave us victory with
extremely small cost of life. Instantly the
cry went up for a coloulal system In foreign
lands, tho bark of Imperialism wns noatea
and tho republic had departed ftom the
moorings of Its founders."
Mr. Sullivan closed with a fervid tribute
to William J. Bryan.

aro working. Secretary Allen of the Build
ing Trades council says that In cons.cqucnco
of this order about 12,000 additional men
