JotiK O'KgEnw Two Great Leaders Address Large Audience The political meeting at the city hall last Tuesday night was the largest of the campaign so far and the interest and enthusiasm demonstrated indicated clearly that Judge Westover, candidate for congress in this district, and Hon. A. C. Shallcnberger, democratic candi date for governor, were the favorites of the audience. The speakers ar rived in the city about six o'clock by automobile from Hemingford, where they addressed the people in the after noon. Though tired from the long and arduous work of the day the speakers were in good trim and each in his turn delivered forceful arguments that are brought out by the Denver platform. Judge Westover was the first to speak after an introduction by Chairman Robt. Graham. He spoke principally on the homestead law as it now exists and is known as the Kinkaid act. He explained how the wily congressman stoic the idea of his successor on the matter, known as the Neville bill, and with 'the help of several other congress men succeeded in massing the same, but not until he had attached amend ments that worked extreme hardships upon the poor homesteader so that he met with all kinds of obstacles in his elforts to gain a home. Judge West over pledged his honor that if elected he would make a special effort to have this bill so changed that the benefit would be for the man who made filing. He also touched another important subject of the platform and declared his entire and complete approval of same. The Judge's personality and his sincerity of expression captivated his hearers and he was given great ap plause. Mr. Shallenberger followed with an exhaustive treatise of the banking ques tion and complete explanation of the famous guarantee plank in the demo cratic national platform, which is do ing as much as any other plank in ad vancing the interests of W. J. Bryan for the presidency. Mr. Shallcnberger Is one of the most interesting and in structivo talkers in the west and holds a high place not only in political lines but also as an orator. He is familiar with the banking business and explain ed every detail thereof to his audience. Ho proved that the idea of bank guar antee was the most feasible solution of the protection of every one who depos ited funds in such an institution, The republican party offers no remedy to ward off the dangers of a panic like such as that which occurred last fall and Only attempts to make matteis worse by instituting postal saving banks that would give the 'handlers of money in great centers a still greater monopoly on the people's earnings. Mr. Shallcnberger concluded his speech by paying a most magnificent tribute to the state of Nebraska and to Hon. William J. Bryan. His speech was electrical and he was "dubbed" by many 111 the audience as "the little whirlwind," and surtly that wns 'an applicable term. Attend the Races Tomorrow.
