STATE COMMITTEE CHANGES ITS PLANS Will Xot Send Spcnliers to Convert He liulillcmii, liut Will Work Among the Lnregeiierute lit Other Mitten. Chairman Wright of the republican county central committee returned yester day morning from Dea .Moines, his mis sion to secure a number of speakers from tho statu central committee for this county during tho lost week of tho campaign prov ing unsuccessful. Ho was also greatly disappointed to learn that Senator l)ol llvcr, who had been promised far a speech nt Avoca In tho cast cud of tho county during tho Inst week of tho campaign, would be unablo to llll tho date. Senator Dolllvcr has notified Chairman Weaver of tho state central committee that thp na tional committee has Imperatively assigned him for a scries of speeches in Illinois, Indiana nnd Michigan and that being tho case, all of his dates in lowa after Oc tober 27 must bo canceled. This an nouncement cornea as a great disappoint ment, as plnns for a monster rally at Avoca were In preparation and Chairman Wright has received Inquiries from all parts of the cotitjty as to tho dato of tho Dolllvcr meeting, Indicating that great Interest wn3 being taken In It and that there would have been an Immense turnout of repub licans from all oer 1'ottawattnmto to greet the senator, Thcro Is hope, however, that Senator Dolllvor'n place may bo lllled by some speaker of national reputation and that tho big meeting as planned for can be held. A. K. Dawson, who has cliargo of tho speakers' bureau of tho state commlttoo, Is endeavoring to securo somo speaker to till tho dato left open by tho Inability of Sena tor Dolllver to bo In this county. Tho state committee lnformod Chairman Wright that It could not supply any speak ers for this county. Tho state Is perfectly safe, and the only question that remains Is tho size of tho majority that I'resldcnt McKlnley will receive. This being the situation, nil the prominent speakers have been called upon to go Into other slates where conditions aro not so sure. There will bo practically no further speaking campnlgu In tho state, except as previously arranged and such as tho county cont inuities can arrange for themselves. Tho stcond poll of the county has been completed nnd the reports show that tho republicans will carry I'ottnwattatnlo by at least 1,00(J and possibly by 1,500, and that tho ontlro ticket will bo elected from top to bottom.

To the Editor of Tho Hoc: That Associated Press dispatch from Nebraska City explaining Hryan's application of trutts nnd hla ef forts to closo the stnrch factory, thereby closing n market for tho corn raised In tho county and throwing- t'lt of employment hundreds of honest Inhering men, has had the effect to convlnco thousands of voters In Nebraska, Iowa nnd clsowhero of Hryan's recklessness and ignorance In tho protec tion of homo Industries in his own state. Had Bryan fostered and encouraged the lo cation of manufactories In Nebraska there would bo at this moment at least ten largo starch factories In operation. Ho used theso sumo methods for closing up th3 enly hemp manufactory when ho ought to hnvn known that Nebraska grows hemp equal to tho best grown in Kentucky. Hnd ho protected that mill thero would now bo In tho stnto at least a dozen more nnd No brnska wculd today be tho leading hemp producing stnto In tho union. The destruc tlon of tho starch and hemp Industries did not satisfy Mr. Bryan. Ho went for free trnde and free wool and ended with soup houses nnd universal bankruptcy nnd his services In that campaign drove 3,000,000 fhoop out of Nebraska worth under protec tlon $1 each to tho fatmer. It's a common saying Just over tho Missouri rlvor In Iowa with somo lines of manufacturing In every town, "Why don't you peoplo In Nebraska sturt up fnctorles?" Our answer Is, Wo havo been doing our best on that score, but Hryan and his party closo them Op or run them off. Supposo tho domocrats of Ohio, Indiana or Pennsylvania had banded to gether to clo8o up tho factories of their states and made as good progress as Bryan has mado In Nebraska, d.o you supposo thoy could got tho support of their neighbors for any office, much Icsb that of president of the United States?
