Why has Senator Hitchcock rele
gated Arthur Mullen to the rear in his
campaign this year? Is it because he
fe irs that publicity of Mr. Mullen
would alienate the Bryan democrats
he hopes to attract?
-o
Last week’s special edition of the
local democratic organ contains
so . oral very eulogistic references to
tl ■ democratic candidate for county
at i orney. The articles are some of the
be t from the pen of Mr. Scott that
have appeared for some time.
-o
With Senator Hitchcock on his visit
to O’Neill Tuesday evening were Earl
B. Gaddis and Frank Fisher. The
latter is the city politics man on the
World Herald. Mr. Gaddis is Senator
Hitchcock’s campaign manager and
director, the job Arthur Mullen used
to hold.
-o
Senator Hitchcock, one of the most
bitter opponents of woman suffrage,
has found it necessary to import
several paid women speakers of na
tional note into Nebraska to speak for
him to Nebraska women. The sena
tor’s newspaper is devoting much
space to the speeches of the ladies,
o.
Arthur Wray has asked several per
tinent questions of William Jennings
Bryan, who is speaking this week in
Nebraska. Elsewhere in this issue ap
pears a copy of the letter of Mr. Wray
to Mr. Bryan. The latter to date has
not replied to the questions, although
he is seeking progressive support for
Brother Charley.
-o
Secretary of State Darius M. Ams
berry, who was defeated at the re
publican primaries for the republican
nomination for congress in the Sixth
district, has accepted the filing of pe
tit ons to have his name placed on the
ba'lot this fall as a petition candidate
foi secretary of state. Mr. Amsberry
ba: es his acceptance of the filing on
rel gious and moral principles, he says.
Mi Amsberry rather shocked the pro
SrLties this spring by hastening to
k as a candidate for congress to suc
ce< d the late Moses P. Kinkaid when
it >ecame known that Judge Kinkaid
■wa ill. It is probable that Mr. Ams
be t ry has mistaken a bad case of itch
for office for symptoms of religious
and moral principles.
Why did not the deniociatic state
central committee send speakers to
the Holt county fair and the Cham
bers fair as it promised to do? It
might at least have had the courtesy
to notify the fair managements of the
cancellation of the dates. But perhaps
the democratic state committee does
not consider the people of Holt county
of sufficient importance to be treated
courteously.
-o
Rapid progress has been made in
the building of permanent roads and
the improvement of federal roads in
Holt county under the administration
of the republican board of supervisors.
The O’Neill, Atkinson and Ewing
roads arc some of the best examples
of the road builders art in the state,
and they are just a beginning. What
roads did a democratic board of su
pervisors build?
-o
Senator Hitchcock announced the
other day that he is opposed to the
cancelling of the debt of the allies to
this country. William Jennings Bryan
and Thomas I^amont of the big J. P.
Morgan banking house continue to
advocate in public addresses the can
cellation of the debt. Mr. Bryan as
the leading democrat of the country
speaks for the party and its Wall
street supporters. Mr. Hitchcock is
bidding for popular favor because he
needs the votes.
“This copy of the Independent has
been bought and paid for by a friend
who desires you to read its pages.”—
Holt County Independent, Oct. 6.
This substantiates what is generally
rumored and understood. With the
millions of Wall street behind the
democratic millionaire candidate for
United States senator from Nebraska
and the telephone magnate candidate
for state senator from this district the
pickings should be good and no demo
cratic precinct worker should be ex
pected to work for nothing.
-o
Bob Simmons, who will become the
congressman from the Sixth district
beginning March 4, spent several days
in Holt county last week and was ac
corded a royal reception wherever he
nppeared. The cordiality with which
ha was greeted by all citizens regard
less of party affiliations was most
noticeable. Mr. Simmons wears well.
The more he is known the better he is
liked. He will be elected by a very
large majority. A. W. Huinphrey, re
publican candidate for the short term,
who accompanied him, also met with
a hearty welcome and many assur
ances of support. Both are men it is
good to know.
-o
A millionaire because of the very
faot that he is a millionaire views
things from a different angle than does
the common individual. It would be
impossible for Senator Hitchcock to
have the same view point as the poor
man and the man of moderate means.
It likewise is true that the owner and
operator of a public utility does not
look upon the regulation of public
utilities by law the same as does the
patron of these utilities. He is apt to
train more or less with the other
owners and operators of public utili
ties in opposing regulatory legisla
tion. John A. Robertson, the demo
cratic candidate for state senator, is
a telephone magnate. He owns and
operates an extensive telephone sys
tem. It would be natural for him to
be found with the telephone crowd.
-n...
How many Bryan democrats are go
ing to vote for Hitchcock ? How many
Hitchcock democrats are going to vote
for Bryan ? Which candidate is goinr
to poll the largest democratic vote?
At the Hitchcock meeting at the K. C
hall Tuesday night there were several
feeble attempts at applause. Cheer
leaders were planted here and there
among the audience and they ap
plauded when the chairman, Judge
Harrington, signalled from the plat
form. During his address Senator
Hitchcock referred once to Charles
W. Bryan. There was quite a burst
of applause from farmers present, but
the chairman and the cheer leaders
didn’t lead this applause. Several did
not applaud at all. The senator
noticed the difference between the two
brands of applause and the greater
volume of tnc voluntary kind. The
senator did not refer to Mr. Bryan
again.

O’NEILL SV. SPRINGVIEW.
A very fast football game was
featured at the O’Neill field last Fri
day when Springview met O’Neill.
The game was called at 3:30, O’Neill
receiving the ball and every player on
the team had his man picked and as
the Springview men came down the
field they were taken off of their feet.
The first quarter was a hard battle,
Springview getting away with a for
ward pass, and making a touch-down
but failed to make the try for the
goal. However this did not dis
courage the O’Neill players for they
came back stronger than ever, mak
ing two touch-downs in the second
quarter. Both were made by the star
II. B., Joe Beha. The first by his
continuous line plunging which Spring
view was unable to check, anil the
second by intercepting a forward pass,
running past the Springview players,
who were unable to hold onto him.
Joe made the first try for goal, but
bceause of the wind, qiissed the sec
ond one.
At the beginning of the second half,
both teams were full of fight. Spring
view scored again by a forward pass
and line plunging. This made a de
cidedly close game. In the last quar
ter Joe Beha punted, the ball was
fumbled by Springview and recovered
by Stannai-d, who ran 30 yards for a
touch-down. Beha kicked goal » and
the game ended with the score 20 to
12 in favor of O’Neill,
O’Neill’s next game is with Tilden,
October 13th, on the local field. Every
one come out.
