Large Attendance at
Fleharty Meeting
Fultv three hundred people attended
the speech delivered by Hon. Hnrry B.
Fleharty, of South Omaba at tlie opera
bouse last Tuesday evening. Mr. Fle
harty, who is the democratic candidate
for attorney general of Nebraska, is a
fluent and impressive speaker. No
sooner had the chairman, Robert
Graham, introduced tho gifted orator
when he entered into the issues of the
campaign in language so plain and in
Htructivo that every one was able to
understand the attitude of the platform
of the principal parties that today ask
the votes of the people of the United
States. That Mr. Fleharty struck the
popular card of his auUicnce was evi
dent from the vociferous applause ac
corded him many times during the
course of his speech,
In dealing with the tariff question lie
read both planks of the republican and
democratic parties and by strange coin
cidence they resembled each other so
closely that it almost challenged his
hearers to distinguish which one was
republican and the other democratic.
Four years ago, the speaker declared,
a plank of thai kind would not be toler
ated in the republican platform .and ho
cited ex-Secretary of the Treasury,
Shaw, aB his authority, who said that
tariff rcfonn was not at all practical.
But today, thank God, the people who
have been paying tribute to the trust
mammon, are resenting the greed of the
monster and demand deliverance from
their Bhackles, Mr. Fleharty held up
his Waltham watch which, in this
country, Costs $62.00 that today is sold
in foreign countreis for some $40.00,
thus illustrating this one instance in
hundreds of others where the working
man was robbed in this fair land of the
free. But the protection had not only
robbed the people but it caused a trust
to be formed in watch-making that re
duced the number of factories in the
Ualted States from some twenty odd to
eighteen, Is this helping the industrial
class? And this was the case with
thousands of other industries which
today are controlled by combinations.
Moses P. Kinkaid, the candidate for
coagress in the sixth district, waB con
sidered by Mr. Fleharty in his address
and he referred to the O'Neill states
man in bitter terms for the record his.
party had made and in which he as a
member of the lower house was respon
sible. In speaking of Judge Taft, the speak
er refrained from all personal illusions
whatsoever. But the official career
of the candidate for president on the
republican ticket was held up in his own
record as an enemy of orcanized labor
and his record as judge was such that, '
democracy and the high esteem in
which he was held by all nations which
fact was attested on his memorial trip
around the world when his counsel was
invoked and his governmental ideas
carefully considered. Mr. Bryan went
as a common citizen of the United
States, not bolstered up bv official in
fluence or prestige, yet he was the
admiration of every nation.
Mr. Koosevclt too was spoken of in
terms that gave great credit to the
president. He was as a great torch
that illuminated the world and in the
glare of which the insidous and dis
honest dealings of the trusts and Wall
Street theives were laid bare. But
while Theodore Roosevelt is the great
illuminator ho is tied by a party that is
today controlled and sbackelcd by the
tendons of the octopus which today is
saping the life blood of the nation. It
will require another David to slay the
Goliath of modem times.

Baschky-Rawland Nuptials.
Married, at Holy Rosary church,
October 7, at 7 o'clock a.m., Father
McNamara officiating, Miss Anna Re
gena Rowland and Mr. Louis A.
Baschky, Miss Agnes Rowland, sister
of the bride, and Joseph Baschky,
brother of the groom, acted as brides
maid and groomsman.
After the ceremony, the bridal party
drove to tho home of tlie bride's broth
ers at 424 Big Horn avenue where a
bountiful wedding breakfast was served
to relatives and intimate friends.
The bride was gowned in a grey
traveling suit, and the bridesmaid in a
! blue tailored suit. The bride has
lived in Alliance nearly a year aud has
made many frjends during her shott
stay. The groom has lived in and
near Alliance for a number of years
where he is welt and favorably known
and is au employe as a fireman out he
to elect him president would be a
dangerous menance to unionism in all
its branches. Mr. Taft had repeatedly
shown his partisan feeling towards
organized labor and in one case Mr.
Fleharty proved his coutempt for a
striker by sentencing him to a term of
six months in jail without giving de
fendant a trial by jury. The speaker
has been attorney for organized labor 1
in South Omaha on several occasions 1
and is thoioughly familiar with thai
tactics of those who would bieak up'
The young couple wefe the recipi
ents of many valuable and useful
presents which goes to show the high
esteem in which thev were held by
their friends. They left this morning for
an extended trip to Lincoln, Denver
and other Colorado points, and will be
at home after October 20th at 724 Big
Horn avenue.
The out of town guests were Mrs.
August Baschky and son, Joe, mother
and brother of the groom, Miss Grace
LeBar and C. W. Miller, all of Craw-
ford, and P. F. Rowlaud, a brother of
orcanized unions of all kinds for the ! the i)rjJei 0f Marsland.
protection of t)ie men who do the work
In referring to guaranteed bank de
posits, which has become an important I
issue in the present campaign, as a re-1
gult of the financial panic that swept1
over the whole country last fall ami I
even yet has not relaxed its grip, the
speaker said that had such a disaster
happened under democratic administra-'
tion it would have been pronounced a
"panic" but owing to the fact that a '
republican administration was respon
sible it was cousidered only a "slight,
financial cmbarassmeut". But no
remedy is offered for the piesent con-1
ditio'n by the republican platform und 1
Mr. Taft in his speech at Cincinnati J
declared that such a thing as guaranteed 1
deposits was a theory that was not !
practical. Mr. Fleharty noted the fact (
that such .security was practical in the
protection of municipal, county and I
Mate bonds and whv should not the 1
individual be similarly protected. In !
Oklahoma, where this law prevails
among the state banks, it is declared
very popular with all concerned. But
to offset this popular plan in the demo
cratic platform, the republicans again
refer to the postal savings bank propo
sition that has o often been introduced
111 congress only to be pigeon-holed and.
forgotton. So much for the republican
party's efforts reform in our banking
system,
In concluding his speed), Mr. Fle
harty paid a' beautiful tribute to Mr.
Bryan, a conspicuous photograph of
whom adorned the stage. 'He told of
the Commoner's untiring zeal for
It's Up to the Voter.
The republican national convention
by un overwhelming majority repudi
ated the most Important measures
advocated by President Roosevelt.
Should Secretary Tnft be elected his
election would be regarded as an
endorsement of the convention's re
pudiation of those measures. The
enemies of thoe nieasmes could
then well, say that since the voter
bad ratified their repudiation they
should not be enacted into laws. In
short, Taft's election would be turned
Into an excuse for calling a halt in
the reforms which President Roose
velt hn Inaugurated and carried for
ward as far as the leaders of hU
party In congress would permit.
Taft, although Roosevelt's under
study and protege, Is pre-eminent a
standpatter. He Is supported by
standpatters, and h strongest sup
porters are those who have most bit
terly and successfully opposed Roose
velt. Those measures were not mentioned
In the republican platform four ears

an excuse for Ignorlas President
Roosevelt's desire to see them en
