The Question for dis cussion Is: "Resolved, That the move ment of organised labor for the closed shop should receive tha support of public opinion." tor of The Bee: As my name will appear on the primary ballot of the Fifth Ne braska district for delegate to the repub lican national convention. I believe It Is just to the republicans of my district, with whom I have no personal acqualn ance. to make a brief Introductory state ment that will assist them to Intelligently accept o reject my services In harmony with their personal Ideas of the necessary qualifications for that position. time we worked for the same object with the same purpose and Ideals. No matter what a man's occupation or social posi tion, no matter what his creed, his color or the section of the country from which he comes. If he Is sn honest, hard work ing man. who tries to do Ms duty to asrd his neighbor end towsrd his coun try, he can rest assured that he will have In Mr. Taft the most upright of represcnta'ivee and the most fearless of Thirty-four years' actual farming on my chnpions. I do not believe there could omeatead In Furnas county combined : 'ound ln " the country, a man so well homestead with an energetic study of farm condi tions and farmers' needs for Improvement in Industrial and legislative matters, ought to qualify one to represent that Interest which is the cornerstone of the nation's and the who'.e building o: Ne braska's prosperity., For over thirty years I have been an mmWhoIeRyeJbod power. I yield to no men in cnampion mg the right of the people to rule. And, as the nomination of candidates is the primary it art for goad or bad govern ment. 1 have long contended that party nominations should be made by the rank and file of Its members and not by J men who bad been elected to office by the support of their party. 1 hold that the voice of our republican governors, even in blocks of seven, should oe no more potent in creating candidates or making nominations for our party than the tame number of honest republican merchants, farmers or blacksmiths. j Concluding my letcr. I thank my fellow I republicans In advance, whether they fitted to be president." Today the world recognises Rooe ell's power of discernment by the lltersi ful fillment of hit prophesy. By the re- nomlnstlon of such a man we can go elect me to go to Chicago, or to stay on before the Deoole ahowinr ci.nm., ! Prairie Grove Farm.

I fully realise that we are in the midst of a spirited, and what Is becoming In asms Instances a bitter contest as to who shall bs our nominee for president. I am sorry this Is txuetcerta'nty If we hope for - success at the polls this contest should be conducted with a gentlemanly consideration of each other's views, and a willingness lo abide by the results of the convention. With all due respect to fellow republ- cans who differ with me and the sc knowledge ment that all candidates whose castors, or hata. are In the ring would make good presidents If "elected, I de sire to nuke plain to the voters my po sition. VI hold that Mr. Taft has proven him self a good president: fearless and un wavering In championing what he be lieves to be right, regardless of strong opposition from powerful Interests, calm and firm In administrating the raw, and dlplomatle In foreign affairs. . When he received the nomination, four years ago, Theodore Roosevelt, then president, said: I feel that the country Is Indeed to be congratulated upon the nomination of Mr. Taft I have known him Intimately for many years, and I hare a peculiar be elected delegate, I shall work with the they make, good government.
