Finding a Leak
Washington Letter.
I1Y TAVENNEK.
Washington, April :8. "I am now
fast getting to be au old man. 1 have
seen the great corporations and the
trusts and combinations grow in this
country at a rapid and well nigh ir
resistible pace, and they will grow
faster until we shall be absolutely help
less unless we adhere faithfully to the
provisions of the anti-trust law. The
pending railroad regulation bill will
give the railroad companies immunity
from the anti-trust law and will confer
them unlimited power to effect
mergers- 1 for one can never consent
to such legislation." In what was
probably the most remarkable speech
in bis career; United States Senator
Knute Nelson of Minnesota thus spoke
of the Taft-Wickersham railroad reg
ulation bill. That such an attack
would be made by a Republican senator
upon a bill which the President has de
clared to represent true Republican
policy and doctrine, and support ot
which Attorney General Wickersbam
and all the reactionaries have declared
is a test of true Republicanism, in
dicates, how far apart the stalwarts and
progressives really are.
"Mr. President, I am very much
obliged to senators for listening to me
without interrupting me. My opinion
of this bill as it came here from the
committee in the first instance is that
in essence its chief aim was to protect
the railroads against the anti-ttust law.
I can come to no other conclusion, and
being a plain, blunt man, I can not
help expressing- this opinion in this
chamber and before this body- '
Blind to the past, the staudpat
faction of the Republican party-which
is by far the hiuKem half of it-has
.....41
decided to stand t on these propositions:
is a good thing for
thing for
That Aldrichism
the country.
That Cannoaism is a good
the country.
That the Payne-Aldrich tariff law is
a God-send to the common people of
the Unied States.
That any Republican member of
Congress who votes against legislation
recommended by the President thereby
reads himself out of the party.
Right or wrong; win, lose or draw,
the Republican regulars have resolved
on a desperate attempt to bluff the
American people on these propositions.
There is but one thing that will make
a better impression on a campaign
audience than a bluff, and that is a
stupendous bluff. The Cannouitcs and
the Aldrichitcs, master politicians that
they are, will play this trump card.
Political gamblers they see a chance
that the people ma'y not have the
courage to call their hand.
Our Lincoln Letter
Lincoln, Nebr., April 20 (Spec
ial Correspondence.) On May 2
the democrats of Emerson will
will hold a rally and enjoy a banquet,
and on May 3, the democrats of
Tecumseb will follow suit. Governor
Shallenberger will be the principal
speaker at both places-
On April 14 the governor officially
proclaimed Arbor day, April 22. J.
Sterling Morton's birthday comes a
little late for tree planting, even under
normal conditions, but this year it is
unusually late, owing to the forward
spring.
The election in Lincoln on April 11
was even more exciting than a presi
dential election, and the total vote was
larger by almost 2,000 than ever before
cast in the city, reaching above 9,600.
Unly one question was up tor con
sideration, "saloons or no saloons,"
and the ' dry" element won by a ma
jority of 936.
Beatrice "went wet" at the recent
election, But now comes the mayor
elect with the announcement that he is
going to rigidly enforce the anti
treating law. If he succeeds in doing
this he will make the saloon business
very unprofitable in Beatrice.
Writing of Sheridan's sweep down
the Shenandoah valley during the
"late unpleasantness," one historian
remarked that 'a crow flying over the
valley in the rear of Sheridan's troopers
would have to carry its provisions with
it." The same thing is true in a dif
ferent way of the territory between
Superior and McCook, a distance of
137 miles. In all that stretch of
territory along the Republican valley
there is only one drinking spot, Bloom-ington.
