ECONOMICAL RULES ADOPTED HI
THE STATE BOARD.
Aa Absolute Check on All Dishonesty
Planned and Pot Into Execution
by Honest Tom Majors.
The assailant* of Lieutenant Gover
nor Majors profess to be tilled with
f, grief because Governor Crounse was
not accorded a nomination for a second
term, end Congressman Bryan took oc
7|7 cation, while presenting the nurne of
l' Judge Holcomb to the recent demo-pop
,/ convention, to take the republican par
« ty to task for its failure to thus honor
toe present chief executive of the state.
The fact that Uovernor Crounse was
not a candidate ami declined to stand
p v ' for a second term is persistently and
wilfully ignored by these enemies of
7 7 the lieutenant governor. That Gover
nor Crounse repeatedly expressed his
unwillingness to longer continue in the
gubernatorial field cannot be denied,
v- and his assertions to that end, made
privately to personal friends as well as
publicly through the press, were sim
ply accorded the consideration by the
. republican convention to which they
were entitled.
>1: t The assertions that tho nomination
of Majors was a rebuke to tho honost
and efficient administration of Uover
nor Crounse is the sheerest political
buncombe, and this Is most conclusively
shown to be the case when one stops
to consider that it has so happened that
4 , the lieutenunt governor has occupied
». tho gubernatorial chair on numerous
/ occat'-ins during the past two years as
acting governor, and is really entitled
to personal credit for much of the good
work of the present administration.
'<“17 A striking example of this is to bo
found in the records of the state board
of purchase and supplies. No one has
the temerity to deny that the stute in
stitutions have been conducted for the
77 7: pest two years on a remarkably oco
‘ nomtcul basis, or that tho business
methods in vogue could be emulated to
h\) advantage by many a private enterprise
or institution. New rules regulating
the . purchases of all supplies were
adopted, and additional safeguards
: were thrown about the annual expen
dituro of hundreds of thousands of dol
:: 7 lars for this purpose.
The records at the state house show
7 that this new system was inaugurated
during the absence of Governor Crounse
from the state, when Lieutenant Gov
i v. ernor Majors, by virtue of his position
as acting governor, was a member of
! 7 the state board and presided over the
deliberations of its meetings To him,
as much as to any ono individual, is
due credit for the new systein, and his
*V vote is recorded In favor of the adop
7 7 tion of such rules as would throw the
most stringent supervision around tho
. expenditure of pubile funds Appended
Is the official record, showing the posi
tion taken by the lieutenant governor,
7 at well as by the other republican mem
bers of tlie board, in favor of business

un mottQn of AU?P» second by Has
tings, tho boat'd adjourned. |
Because of the stringent rules'that
have been adopted to regulate the
transaction of business in connection
with the state institutions, and the
system of Touchers, checking and coun
ter-checking that has been made neces
sary, it is an impossibility for any
crooked work to be conducted or steal
iug from the state to be carried on
without the connivance of the governor, J
auditor of pubiio accounts and the |
stewards of the various institutions, as i
well as direct felonious intent and con
duct on the part of the members of the
board of public lands and buildings.
No matter how great an effort might
be made by any of the officials to ben
efit themseveles financially at the es
pouse of the state, it could not be suc
cessful without the connivance of all
the parties through whose hands the
business lias to pass.
An esamiuation of the records and
of the system that has been in vogue
for the past two years shows conclu
sively that every purchase, be it how
ever small, hns to come before the
board and approving officers, and with
out the official O. li. of all these officials
no payment is made for even a shade
roller, a chunk of putty or a pound of |
nails. It is, of course, impossible for I
the officials to be present in person and !
witness the delivery of goods and the !
quality of the same, but the monthly I
inventory thut is required from eacti 1
institution and the strict accountabil- I
ity to which the officers of these institu
tions are held, is an absolute check on ;
all dishonesty. In view of this fact, :
the insinuations and innuendoes of
those who are opposing any or all of
the republican nominees are a slap at
Governor Crounse and Auditor Moore.
No one believes or dares intimate that
either of these gentlemen has been in j
any way connected with any question- 1
able transaction, and the utter folly of
charging that such things have oc- !
curred in channels which were open to '
them and of which they must of neces- i
sity have known is apparent on the
very face of things.
In making these idiotic assertions
regarding the management of public
institutions, the enemy has gone on
the foolish assumption that each state
official is independent of the others,
which is manifestly not the case. But !
the best proof of economy is in the
bills, and none can question the man
agement that has kept them down to !
the appropriations of the non-partisan '
legislature of two years ago It was !
to keep the institutions running on a
bed-rock basis that would secure the
most possible in return for every dollar |
expended and admit of the closest scru- :
liny of every outlay that Thomas J.
Majors assisted in the formulation and
adoption of the rules that made that
lecord of economic management possi
ble. Conceding that credit to him ia
but the demand of common decency.
| It is not desired to deprive Governor
Crounse of the credit to which he ia en
titled. In fact it would be impossible
to to do this with the record of bis in
cumbency in the gubernatorial office
standing out so prominently and chal
lenging criticism for economical ad
ministration. Thera would have been
no necessity for thus referring to the
particular work of individual officials
but for the malicious charges that
Majors would, if elected, play into the
hands of public plunderers Whenever
he has been called upon to exercise
personal supervision over the affairs of
state he has been careful, painstaking
and technical almost to a fault, and has
been particularly vigilant to see that
no loophole was left through which
unscrupulous parties might obtain an
advantage or the interests of the state
be made to suffer.
This is the official record tohchlng
all matters with which he has been
connected, and is the past can be taken
as a criterion by which to judge the
future, Tom Majors will be the most
careful, watchful and particular gov
ernor the state of Nebraska has ever
had.
nualDCH nnd Financial Iaaaea.
The people of Nebraska and Kansas
and a few Iowa districts will make a
mistake if they do not realize that the
Issue in this election is one of business
and financial credit The tariff is an
important issue, generally speaking,
but it is not as important in states like
Nebraska as the one of the restoration
of ordinary business confidence. The
personalities of the candidates are also
minor matters.
Hut instead of striking the real issue
many papers, and many speakers in
Nebraska, are discussing the personali
ties of the candidates. If they are wise
they will put all other matters aside
and make the issue along the lines of
financial credit. That state is still in
embryo. It has not yet reached one
half of its glory in an industrial sense.
Every voter ought to ask himself,
what effect will the success of the re
publican party or of the populist party
have upon the reputation of the state
abroad, upon those whose money and
whose labor, in the form of settlers,
and upon those who want to build and
borrow and develop? The business in
terests that are suffering, the commer
cial credit that is bleeding at every
pore—these are the real issues. The
struggle in Nebraska is not personal,
it is not a general political struggle. It
is a business struggle and Nebraska is
cither going to come out still more
crippled, or strong enough to regain
her former position as a state for the
investment of capital.
It does seem as if the people of that
state will realize this and will fight a
winning fight to maintain property
values and business credit. The en
dorsement of republicanism as it exists
in Nebraska this year means stability
and confidence. The endorsement of
populism means the opposite. Let the
people make this issue, regardless of
politicians Let them realize that pop
ulism endorsed in that state this year
will mean a loss of millions, and a'loss
of confidence that ten years can hardly
overcome. Democrats interested in
their state should realize that the offices
cannot mean as much to them as the
law of credit. The south is recovering
from populism. Will the west throw
away the opportunity it this year has
to redeem itself from wild financial
theories which have already meant the
loss of millions.—Des Moines Register.
Onr Credit Is Our Capital.
It should be borne in mind that this
is not a national campaign. While the
noble principles of our grand party are
dear to every republican's heart this
year, we have an issue of such vast and
overshadowing importance to our state
that all others are for the time eclipsed.
It must not be forgotten that this is
sue presents itself to eve.y citizen Of
the state and no one is debarred from
participating in the contest While
good mcD and wise may honestly differ
on tne great questions of national im
port, all such must agree that the cred
it of our people and the reputation of
our state is of first importance to every
inuu in Nebraska, regardless of poli
tics Without credit it would have re
quired a hundred years for this state
to have reached the position of pros
perity which it now occupies nnd to
have acquired the wealth which it pos
sesses We have borrowed vast sums
of money and still owe a large amount.
That it has in the main been wisely
employed is attested by the amount of
visible property within the state. To
injure our credit now would be disas
trous Farm foreclosures, chattel fore
closures, business failures and general
financial disaster would warn us when
too late of the grievous mistake we had
made. No fanciful notions nor Euro
pian theories should prevail over actual
and existing facts To elect any pop
ulist ticket, whatever may be the can
didates, will endanger and surely in
jure the credit of every man in Nebras
ka.

Lightening Those "Heavy Bardens."
The people have not yet discovered
how the new bill “will certainly
lighten many tariff burdens that now
rest heavily” upon them. They have
discovered, however, that the price of
sugar has been increased by the dem
ocratic tax upon their breakfast
tables, which they shrewdly suspect
has something to do with those “in
fluences” to which the President was
so susceptible when he failed to veto
a bill containing “inconsistencies and
crudities,” which, he says, should not
appear “inlaws of any kind.” Hav
ing experienced this one result of
‘Influences” upon democratic legisla
tion, the people are not anxious to
witness any "further aggressive oper
ations against protected monopoly,”
operations that result only in en
hancing the cost of the people's food
through democratic “governmental

Senator Morgan introduced a series of

two or more persons that would re
strain lawful trade or free competi

ketable commodity. The penalty is
fixed at a fine ranging from #100 to

varying from three to twelve months.

Economy lias Began.
When people were prospering1 under
protection they had money to spend.
In 1867 every person in the country
consumed 34.1 pounds of sugar and in
1891 each person used 66.1 pounds, an
increase of forty-two pounds for
every one of us. But that free trade
threat brought it down to 63.4 pounds
in 1893, or nearly three pounds less
per person. The people had to be
economical last year because they
were not earning so muchrnoney.
Exports Under Protection.
Our exports of domestic merchan
dise were worth only 87.73 per capita
of our population in 1867, but they
were worth §15.53 per capita in 1892.
Thus under protection the value of
our domestic exports was nearly
doubled, and this too while the prices
of commodities became cheaper.
Oar Wealth Under Protection.
During thirty-three years of protec
tion, 1860-93, the wealth of the United
States increased by 857,405,000,000.
Is not this satisfactory evidence that
protection is a good thing for the
country? Leave well alone.

A Point on Customs Unties.
Each person in the United States
paid 84.65 customs duties in 1867 and
only 83.66 in 1892, a decrease of 83 per
