The Chicago Cuba seem to be In the
Jeffries class—they can’t come back.
The Dahlman wave is receding and
indications are now that Aldrich will
have an overwhelming majority in the
state.
Would he Senator Hitchcock has
probably decided that Edgar Howard
had more than a bob tall flush when
be asked for his resignation from
the democratic ticket.
It is admitted by many local demo
crats tnat Edgar Howard’s exposure
of Congressman Httchoock’s connec
tion with the Bartley defalcation, has
sounded the death-knell of his politl
ical ambitions.
W. A. Goble, the republican candi
date for state Senator from this dis
trict, Is an attorney in the active
practice of thi3 profession at Butte
and is well qualified to ably represent
the people of this district at Lincoln
next winter.
It should not be overlooked by re
publicans that we have a splendid
state ticket in the field this year. It
Is very Important that the state offic
es be filled by able efficient men, and
the republican party takes pride in
the type of men that have been elect
ed for these positions.
The death of Senator Dolliver of
Iowa, whioh occurred at his home in
Ft. Dodge last Saturday, removes
from the United States senate its
greatest orator and from the ranks of
She progressives one of its ablest and
most powerful champions. His death
is a loss to his country.
Atkinson Graphic: D. H. Cronin
and H. A. Allen, the republican can
didate (or the legislature from this
county, are old-time residents of the
county and are well known to a
large majority of the voters in the
district, who know who they are,
where they live and what they stand
for.
It was announced in Wednesday’s
State Journal that Governor Shallen
berger would appoint Arthur F.
Mullen attorney general to flill out
the unexpired term of Attorney
General Thompson, provided the
latter resigns. Mr. Thompson is now
filling an important position in the
legal department of the government
at Washington, to which he was ap
pointed by President .Taft, and his
resignation as attorney general is ex
pected about the first of the month.

Bartley and Hitchcock.
Lincoln Journal, Oct. 12th, 1910—In
response to a demand for proof of his
charge that G. M. Hitchcock, candi
date for the U. S. Senatorship, was
connected with the Bartley state
treasury scandal of 15 years ago, Edgar
Howard publishes In his paper, The
Columbus Telegram, a startling fac
simile letter written on World Her
ald stationery and signed by O. M. •
Hitchcock. It Is addressed to “Hon.
Joseph S. Bartley, state treasurer,”
not to J. S. Bartley personally. It
reads as follows:
Personal.
Omaha, Nebraska. May 30, 1895,
Hon. Joseph S. Bartley, state treas
urer, Lincoln, Neb.
Dear Sir:—Referring to (blank)
conversation with you I beg to say
that I would like to make out notes
as follows:
One due September 1,.*200
One due October 1,.100
One due November 1, .100
One due December 1.100
One due January 1,1896.500
The latter I might ask to have ex
tended in part. The others would be
paid at maturity with interest. Will
of course pay the Interest on present
note. Will this be satisfactory?
Yours truly,
G. M. Hitchcock.”
This Is the most extraordinary ex
posure yet made in connection with
the Bartley defalcation. Only once
before has anything like it appeared in
print. Nine years ago almost to a
day the World Herald drove Regent
Goold from the Republican state tick
et because his bank had borrowed a
thousand dollars of state money.
When the facts became knjwn
through the blackest of World Herald
headlines, Mr. Goold tendered his res
ignation to the Republican state cen
tral committee.
Mr. Howard has exceeeded all ex
pectations in the suddenessand dum
founding nature of his evidence. The
state will now await action by Mr.
Hitchcock with lively interest. The
proper course for him to take, unless
he is able to prove this letter to be a
forgery, was outlined by his own pap
er In October 1901.
