Alse a more equitable systm of taxation. A Panic Howler Called One -big city banker lias been called good and hard for giving expression lo the calamity cry that desperate rcpub licau campaign managers have resorted to during the past few weeks. Presi dent George E. Roberts of the Com mercial National Bank of Chicago, recently expressed the opinion that Bryau'-s election would be harmful to business interests. Air. Roberts has received a flaying at .the hands of J. iP. O'Malley, president of People's Sav ings Baak of Iowa, for his stand in this matter. In a letter to officers of the Commercial National ilUtnk, Mr. O'Mal Jey said: "I .notice by theiuublic press that your .president, Mr. Roberts, witk -some other business .men, have beea .giving .out interviews un regard to the coming -election. Now, personally, I entertain a high opinion of Mr. Rob erts .as. a business man and more es .pticially ibecause he was a former rest dontof.our state, and further I do ndt .want to .interfere with auy man's right of free -speech and concede to every citiaenitheiright to express his choice between Mr. Bryan and Mr. Taft. But I do -seriously object to this 'Paniclraitiiug- funds by popularrtubscription' Talk' ,pnt n.p by our so-called busiuess men .as .being unpatriotic, .unwise and unbuoiness-like, and any .man or party using. those. campaigu methods are un safe men to do business with because we give .them .credit for knowing better, and they. canuot be honest tinitryiug to deceive die .innocent voter in ctliis re spect. WftU .PAID THE IIU New YorJc, October 9. The fact 2Lat Andrew Carnegie has contmktited $Q,ooo to tiie campaign fund .of the republican national .committee was xn noufficed today by State Chairman Woodruff. Associated Press Dtspatok. Twenty thousand dollars that is but a little dab Andrew Carnegie liasfven Mr. Tat. Just the profit of an hour of his tariff graft. Twenty thousand families go hungiy for a day To help the 'Laird o' Skibo" work his will; But amidst our toil and sweating there's no danger we're forgetting That those who died at Homestead paid the bill. Twenty thousand dollars there's a ted-brown, dirty stain On the money that can never be erased. 'Tie the blood of honest toilers shed by greedy trust despoilers Who at vantage points their Pinker tons had placed. Just the profits of oppression wrought by those who had possession Of the power held by kings to save or kill; But the third day of November let the toilers well remember That those who died at Homestead paid the bill. The martyred dead at green the grass Homestead above their graves Green the memory of how the mar tyrs died. And again we see the battle; hear the rifles' crashing rattle, See the blood of workers flow crimson tide. 111 Aye, upon that contribution is the stain of destitution Hungry children, hopeless widows wan and ill ' Woe and want the worker pinching gold the tariff baron clinching And those who died at Homestead paid the bill. kRRRRBRHkr JRBiRBRWrVrViIRIBIrI RbBBBBBBR rBBsHBBRBBH BBBBIBBh1 ' 'BIBWBhBIIHbiBIBh Judge W. H. Wfistover, Another Republican Gets His Eyes Opened W. J. Johnson, a prominent stock man of Wright precinct, and who has been known as one of the rankest re publicans in the county, .was in Alliance Saturday. Mr. Johnson surprised his republican friends by declaring that himself and three sons would vote for Bryan. He says a system that can reduce the value of property one half in the short time of three, months is wrong and 'lie cannot conscientiously vote for a party which as responsible for such a ooudition. A leading re publican of Alliance did his best to persuade Mr. Johnson aaot to desert the g.o.p. but his efforts were without avail.

The Jio.ooo (mark is uowpasscd, this amount hav ting been contributed in eums of fifty cents up andrforwarded to .the World Herald from about 400 towns, mostly hx Nebraska.

TafL All that's cool and holy is attributed to their idol who reprraents the trusts and combinations, whole the leader of the masses. Win. J. Bcyan, is slurred and misrepresented. ttut every ooe who stops to review these comparisons can readily ree.d between tiie lines and thai speaks of Taft's labor injunction acts. The other day, George L. Sheldon, republican candidate for re-election as governor of Nebraska, spoke in Adams, Nebr. While walking down the street he saw a beautiful parrot in a cage. "What a magnificent bird," exclaim ed the governor. "I never saw .such a beauty. Hello Polly." "Hello," replied Polly. "Polly want a cracker?" inquiied the governor. "Hurrah for Bryan l" shrieked the parrot. , Now the last days of Governor Shel don's campaign are made miserable for him by joking friends and political op ponents who greet him with the query: "Polly want a cracker?" The high protective tariff fostered by the republican party has finally proven its downfall. In the past twelve years the number of combinations and rtrust8 that have multiplied, and to which the people have had to pay tribute, has brought about a reaction ary sentiment in favor of casting off the unjust burden. The managers of the g.o.p. have become aware of this fact, and today refute their former actions by advising a "change in the tariff." Under McKinley and Roose velt more than two hundred trusts were created to further scourge the people. The laboring man, the mer chant, in fact every consumer of man ufactured goods on which there is a duty, have been compelled to pay tub Candidate for Congress. utc to mammon. It took several years for the people to resent this high-tariff imposition but on next Tuesday thous ands of voters all over the union will go to the polls and oppose further tyranny in this respect with their bal lot. Judge Westover's Position Uclicviug that the voters of the Sixth Corgressional District have a right to know where their candidate stands on the issues involved in this election, and believing that candidates before election should state publicly and unequivocally what they are in favor of, and what they will undertake to do if elected, 1 hereby pledge myself as follows: i. I will support any and all measures which will bring about the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. 1, I will supports law making it com pulsory upon all political parties to publish a complete statement of campaign contri butions before election. 3. I will favor a law providing that in all cases -of indirect contempt of court, tho I party so accused shall be tned by a jury, the same as anv other rtersoa accused of mni a. . 4. i will lavor a reduction ol the pres- ent tariff loan eitteat that foreien comrje tttion will oorapcl American manufacture ers to sell their products to American coo--sumers as cheaply as they sell them to consumers in any foreign country; and that .all .agricultural machinery, fencing, bulid iing materia), and aU household utensils be placed on the free list. 5. I will favor as amendment of the so called Railroad Rate Bill, oow in force, which will provide that pending an appeal to ah e federal court, the order of the inter state commerce commission, whether ra&laiog a new rate, or which is made for the -purpose of preventing an dieting dis criroLtation, shall be and remain in force pending the appeal ia the federal courts. 6. I ehall favor an amendment to the federal constitution providing for an in heritance and income tax. 7. 1 shall favor an amendment to the present .bonestead law, now in force and applicable to this district, which wilt give the homesteader the same rights' of com mutation, and making final proof, as are enjoyed in other localities by homesteaders under the genera) homestead law of the country. 8. I shall favor a law under which de posits in all national banks will be guaran teed, ai proposed in the Denver platform, 9. I shall devote all of my time, energy and what ability 1 possess, to attending to the business of the people of this district, and to guarding their rights individually and collectively. 10, I shall favor an amendment of the rules of the house of representatives, which will deprive Speaker Cannon, or any other speaker of the house, of the power to throttle legislature which is demunded by the people. If the above and foregoing propositions meet with your approval, I respectfully and earnestly solicit your support at the coming general election, W. H, WEST0VER. Geo. M. Adams' Statement Crawford, Nebr., Oct. 15, 1908, To all Voters of the Fourteenth Sena torial District of Nebraska: Having been nominated by the Dem ocratic and People's Independent Par ties for the honorable position of State Senator for the Fourteenth district of Nebraska, and believing that the voters of this district should know before election where their candidate stands upon the most important issues involv ed in this campaign, I submit the fol lowing for your consideration; 1. 1 am in favor of a law that will guarantee bank deposits, for the ab solute security of the people's money, to prevent panics and promote prosper ity, and available to national as well as state banks of this state wishing to take advantage of the same. 2. I am in favor of the election of; precinct or township assessors by tho direct vota of the people in the pro cincts or townships in which they live. 3. 1 am against what I term the un just action of the state board in arbi trarily raising the valuation as returned by the local and county assessors. 4. 1 believe in a state cxpoiimental farm and that it should bo located in the northwestern part of the state, as mentioned in the Democratic platform. 5. 1 favqr a wide open primary elec tion, where every voter will have an opportunity of voting a secret ballot and for whom he choscs. C. From a national standpoint, I am in favor of every plank in the Demo cratic platfoun that was adopted by the Democratic party at its last na tional convention held in Denver, Col., in July, 1908. Having served in the last legislature aB tho representative from the Fifty third district, which is accredited with being the most progressive legislature that has assembled in Nebraska for the last fourteen years, I believe that I am in a better position to know what the people of my part of the state want and expect from their member if elected to the office.
