November 8, 1891, being thirty-two
years, ten months and ten days old at
the time of his death.
He leaves a wife, on son, his mother,
one brother and two sisters besides o
host of friends to mourn his death.
Services were held Sunday from
the Lutheran church at Atkinson at
1:30 conducted by Rev. Vahle. Burial
was made in the Atkinson cemetery.
The funeral procession was one of the
longest that has followed the remains
of a Holt county citizen for a long
time. His friends were many. He was
a young man of goodly habits ami
kindly ways and will be greatly miss
ed by everyone with whom he had

DONALD EUGENE COLLINS.
The community was covered with a
pall of sadness last Friday evening
when it was learned that Donald, the
little two year old son of Mr. and Mrs.
H. J. Collins, had been drowned in
the Elkhom river south of O’Neill.
Mrs. Collins and the little fellow’
were staying at the Charles Harding
farm, better known as the Carlon
farm, just south of the Burlington
round house in O’Neill, Mrs. Collins
missed the little fellow about two
thirty in the afternoon and began a
search for him. Several neighbors
also assisted in the search and not
until about five o’clock was there any
trace of the boy to be found. James
Moore discovered some pups coming
from the river and acting upon the
thought that the boy might have fol
lowed the pups, he made a trip to the
river, where the body of the child was
found lying in shallow water.
Donald Eugene was born August
! 24, 1922, and was two years, and
twenty-five days old. The funeral
j services were held at the home, con
ducted by Rev. George Longstaff,
pastor of the Presbyterian church.
Interment was made in Prospect Hill
cemetery.

LA FOLLETTE PARTY
DOES NOT ENDORSE
JOHN A. ROBERTSON
John A. Robertson, democratic can
didate for state senator in the Twenty
second district, which comprises Holt,
Boyd, Keya Paha, Brown and Rock
counties, is not endorsed by the La
Follette party in Nebraska. Efforts
to make it appear that Robertson has
the LaFollette endorsement as against
W. L. Philley, the republican nominee,
through the publication in an Omaha
newspaper of a list of candidates al
leged to have the endorsement of a
“progressive party” brings forth the
following scathing denunciation of the
scheme from M. F. Harrington, one of
the LaFollette leaders in the state,
who speaks with authority for the La
Follette organization:
Complying with the request that
I state the present situation of the so
called ‘Progressive’ party in Nebraska
and about the endorsement of John
A. Robertson against Mr. Philley for
state Senator in this district. The
word comes that a few politicians as
sembled in a room either in Omaha
or in Lincoln, and there seems to be a
debate as to which place it occurred,
endorsed Mr. Robertson. Now what
is this present political party in Ne
braska that is using the name ‘Pro
gressive?’ Legally they have the
right to use that name and under the
law, we, the supporters of LaFollette
when we met at Grand Island, had to
adopt the name of the new party ‘The
LaFollette Independent Party.’ We
had absolutely nothing to do with this
bunch of fakirs who are running what
they have so called the ‘Progressive’
party. Senator LaFollette and Sena
tor Wheeler and our National Com-!
mittee requested us in Nebraska to
endorse nobody for any office what-!
soever. We were loyal to this new
organization and we endorsed nobody
and we will endorse nobody as a poli
tical party. We have left every indi
vidual to vote for such candidates for
any state or local office as he or she
may think the most progressive and
the best qualified for the position.
“Now about this ‘Progressive’ party.
In 1912 we organized a progressive
party in Nebraska to support Theo
dore Roosevelt for president. We ran
a state ticket two years later and
after that the party was disbanded.
Back about four or five years ago a
few men got together arid organized
another and totally different ‘Progres
sive’ party. It has never had but a hand
tui ot voters in the state but legally
they are using the name ‘Progres
sive’ and solely for the purpose of
fooling voters. It is a little machine
that is endorsing different candidates.
For example, they have nominated
for United States Senator a standpat
Democrat against a splendid progres
sive, George W. Norris. Can any sup
porter of LaFollette pay any attention
to a state political crowd that want
to defeat George Norris? In our
state convention we refused to nomi
nate any candidate for governor or
any other state office, but this bunch
of political fakirs that are using the
I name ‘Progressive’ have endorsed the
I Democratic candidate for governor
although knowing full well that he
wrote a letter to the democratic state
committee that he was 100 per cent
for John Wallstreet Davis. That tells
plainly where this bunch of fakirs
stand. The people of the state should
be fully advised as to the full situa
tion.
“11 would be very unwise for La
Follette’s supporters to get in line to
support a Democrat and thereby make
enemies. We have agreed to leave
each voter free to do as he or she
pleases in the matter of voting for

local candidates, since the party or
ganization would not endorse. Now
in this senatorial district there are
many more republicans than demo
crats. My own observation is that in
the condition this year LaFollebte will
get about the same per cent from both
Republicans and Democrats. But in
this district, he will naturally get
more from the Republican party than
from the Democratic party because
there are more Republicans in the dis
trict than there are Democrats. No
doubt the LaFollette voters in the
district who have heretofore been Re
publicans are likely quite generally to
vote for Mr. Philley and the LaFol
lette voters in the district who have
been heretofore Domocrats are likely
I to vote tor Mr. Robertson. Under
these conditions it would be extremely
unwise for Mr. LaFollette’s friends to
give any offence tfc the many friends
of Mr. Philley who are coming over
from the Republican party to help
elect LeFollette and Wheeler. We
ought to just stick to what we have
agreed on and that is that our party
will not give an endorsement to any
candidate. LaFollette’s friends, of
course, are at liberty personally to
urge the LaFollette supporters to vote
for this condidate or that candidate,
but as far as the party organization
is concerned, we are endorsing no
body. There has never been an or
ganization where there is a better
feeling and a more kindly spirit in the
rank and file of the voters than there
is among the men and women who are
supporting Bob LaFollette. Let us
keep that up and don’t let us be hood
winked or fooled by a bunch of politi
cians who are misusing the name
‘Progressive.’
Yours truly,
M. F. HARRINGTON.”
