The eyes of the world are now turn
1 toward the next world's fair the
Alaska Tnkon - Pacifio Exposition
which will be held at Seattle, USA
opening Jane land closing Ootober
16, 1909. Alaska, which was pumbas
' l by the United States from Ucssia
in 1807 for the sum of $7,200,000
i bout two cents an acre,) is a laud of
Krt-at resources and possibilities . The
prevailing conception of the territory
i mat is nothing but a land of ioe
s ow and gold. The same is true of
akon, which belongs to the Domia
.ton of Canada. Although the wealth
f these countries have only been
cr j tchel on the surface, they have
yielded millions of dollars worth of
Kld, fare, fish and other valuable pro-
ducts BeaiJet these resources, there
are others that are only beginning to
le developed, and, although it may be
our prising to those who are not ao-
iaainted with conditions in the North
landf agrioaltore is iaoludeed io
them. The Uuited States government
. bas been carrying on experiments
ia agrioiillure, cattle raiaing and dairy
ing and It has ben found that Alaska
tits great agricultural possibilities. It
liM'imeted that in time the territory
will be able to support a population of
-3,000.000 persons. It is partly for the
pa -rose showing the Northland in
its true light before the world that the
.1909 Exposition will be held.

HI8 PLATFORM THREATENS RU
RAL DELIVERY AND AGRI
CULTURAL PROGRESS.
Denounces Expansion of Department
Which Work Exclusively In
the Intereata of the
Farmer.
How many Nebraska farmers wish
to see the Free Rural Delivery of Mall
crippled and perhaps abolished and
the great work of the Department of
Agriculture hampered and possibly
reduced to a stagnant condition and
all real progress in that department
stopped? As many as wish such a
result In the two great departments
of the government devoted exclusive
ly to the dally interests of the farmer,
stock-raiser and horticulturist should
vote this year for Candidate Bryan
and his democratic platform, because
in that platform, made and approved
In every word by Candidate Bryan,
is a plain and unmistakable threat to
do that very thing.
That tills statement Is true and is
not mere idle criticism Is amply
pToven by the official record on which
Candidate Bryan himself has placed
the seal of his personal approval.
It 1b a matter of common knowl
edge that the democratic platform
this year was prepared under the per
sonal supervision of Candidate Bryan
and had his approval in every word,
line and statement before it saw the
light of day In the democratic na
tional convention at Denver and was
there adopted with the full knowl
edge that -it waa the personal plat
form of Candidate Bryan. What does
this democratic platform say in re
lation to the matters of vital dally
interest to the men and women who
make their homes and spend their
lives on the farm?
Under-a section of the democratic
national platform denominated "Office
holders," the platform undertaking to
denounce the administration of the
republican party in keeping abreast of
the progress of the country and ex
tending benefits to the agricultural
classes of the nation, says:
"Coincident with the enormous"
"Increase in expenditures hi a"
"like addition to the number of
"officeholders. We do-"
"nounce this great and growing"
"increase in the number of"
"officeholders as not only unnec-"
"essary and wasteful, but also"
"as clearly Indicating a deliberate"
"purpose on the part of the ad-"
"ministration to keep the repub-"
"llcatf party In power at public"
- "expense by thus increasing the"
"number of its retainers and do-"
"pendents. Such procedure we"
"declare to be no less dangerous"
"and corrupt than the open .pur-"
"chase of votes at the polls."
Now let the Nebraska farmer ex
amine this declaration carefully in
the light of the facts, to determine
exactly what it means, remembering
.that Candidate Bryan la promising in
every speech he makes to carry into
effect, if he ia elected, every word
found in his platform.
' io Know wnat ne means it is nec
essary first to learn wherein has
been the great increase in "office
holders" inyrecent years which Can-
aiuaie wryan ana nis piatronn bo
roundly and viciously condemn and
by plain inference "threatens to
abolish. That "Increase in office
holders" in recent years has been
very largely in tho two great depart
ments of the government conducted
exclusively for the benefit of tho
-American farmer; the Rural Free Do-
livery of -Mail and tho Department of
Agriculture. Every rural letter car
rier and every, employe of the De
partment of Agriculture connta in
.malting up tie government list of
."officeholders" and it ia the growth
and expansion of these great depart
ments established by tho republican
party for the benefit of the farmer
that Candidate Bryan condemns ajtd
threatens to reduce to a condition of
;wreck and ruin. The facta obtain
aoie amply prove the case. In 1896
there were no rural delivery carriers.
no officeholders" to be counted, be
cause in spite of republican leglsla
uon establishing this service for the
farmer a democratic president refused
.to avail himself -of the appropriation
made for this purpose. The repub
lican party took hold iu 1897, fostered
and expanded the rural delivery and
on June 30th, 1908, 39,227 employee
were engaged in the It. F. D. serv
ice, delivering the mall dally to
million of our farm residents. Thl3
added over thirty-nine thousand "of
ficeholders" to the list or government
employees in the twelve years and
with its cost of thirty-five millions
prf year glvea Candidate Bryan hia
opportunity in 1908. to denounce the
increased number of "officeholders"
land the increased expense,
j Does any Nebraska farmer wls'n
jto Join with Candidate Bryan in
abolishing this service, reducing the
number of "officeholders" thereby and
"aavlng" the money it costs? For a
igenulnely craxy idea of "econom" Is
not this position of Candidate Bryan
'entitled to first place?

retary, this department 'has grown
and expanded under republican en
couragement into a work of tre
mendous importance to the American
farmer. Ten years ago about two
thousand 'officeholders" at an annual
cost of three million doljars repre
sented the total of men and money
given to this great work. On July
1st, 1908, the "officeholders," or in
other words the necessary employees
to carry on the work, had increased
to 10,320 (an Increase of 8,000), and
Congress appropriated fifteen millions
for the work of this farmers' depart
ment. This is another item to add
to Candidate Bryan's denunciation of
the "increase of officeholders." Let
us add up the 'sum. Thirty-nine thou
sand "officeholders" and thirty-five
million dollars' "increase" for the
farmers Rural Free Delivery; 8,000
"officeholders" and fifteen million dol
lars for the farmers' Department of
Agriculture, a total addition of 47,000 '
government employees and fifty mil
lion dollars, all working for the Amer
ican farmer and the increase of em
ployees and expense roundly de
nounced by Candidate Bryan. All
this was done for the farmer by tho
republican party. Does the Nebraska
farmer wish to continue these great
undertakings by supporUng the re
publican party with his vote or does
he wish to assist Candidate Bryan
to throw it all overboard aa he threat
ens in his platform to do? Can the
Nebraska farmer afford to risk the
continuance of the two greatest
agencjes for his prosperity and well
being ever established by the general
government by caaUng his vote for
Candidate Bryan and his experimental
ideas of economy that are pointed di
rectly to the abolition of the "office
holders" who serve the farmer ex
clusively? None .but the thoughtless
will incur such a risk and Nebraska
farmers are not thoughtless or easily
deceived. ...
