The Weekly Independent.
Published at Lincoln, Neb., in the Interests
of Financial and Labor Relorm.
Thk Independent stands by the men whom the party has hon
o;d, m long as they stand by the people. It has nc personal tight
and no sore spots. It is a populist paper.
Price, One Dollar Per Year.
25 Cents for Three Months.
R. E. RICHARDSON.
The office of county commission
er is one with which the denizens
of the city have little to do, as the
duties of the office lie almost
wholly in the country. It is emi
nently proper that a farmer shall
hold that office and the populist
county convention did the proper
thing when they nominated farmer
K. K. Richardson for that position.
Mr. Richardson has lived in this
state eleven years, four years of it
in this county. He was born in
reoria, 111., in 1855 and at eight
years of age was thrown upon the
world to make his own living. That
he has lived a sober, honest life
ever since, having the respect of a
host of friends, who all respect him,
shows that he is made of the right
kind ot stuff. He lives four miles
west of Lincoln on a farm and has
a family of four children, two of
whom are students of the State
University. He is a typical Ameri
can farmer, cf sound body and
sound mind and qualified in every
way tofilithe office. This is a
case where the office sought the
man and found exactly the right
kind of a man. The farmers and
bvki-ra who want gonti roads and
good bridge constructed and main

AN OLD POP.

Please allow an old pop to get in a
few suggestions. There are several
propositions that have been discussed
along the lines in all parties within the
last ten years that now seem to me to
he pretty well settled.

the Wilson tariff bill did not nor cannot

current expenses together witji interest

The question of money should be more
clearly delined by constitution, to in

equivalent to taxing all the money In the

remiire such issues. To tax incomes is

LINCOLN AND VICINITY.
Councilman O. .V, -Webster
made a fair and honest fight for
die people against the thieving
lighting contract.
The Ixuei'Kxdknt is evidently
stirring up some of the animals
from the manner in which some of
our contemporaries are publishing
denials.
Will some citizen of Lincoln be
kind enough to warble gently and
lovingly down in our ear the
amount of taxes Sam Low ever
paid into the courity or city treas
ury? Forty cents would bc2t
nothing.
The poor old Journal cannot
hope to drive the Independent
out of line by making false and ma
licious assaults upon its publisher.
His public and private life invite
the closest scrutiny. He will still
continue to camp on the trail of the
Rang. 1
The county central committee
met last Saturday and tided the
vancy for county superintendent,
caused by the declination of H. S.
Mowers, with the name of John G.
Sidcll, of Yankee Hill precinct.
Mr. Sidell is an educator of very
high standing and a populist of the
most substantial kind.
T. K. Connelly, a well known
and popular young man of this
city, is a candidate for assessor in
the First ward. "Tommy," as he is
is familiarly known, is an upright,
industrious young man, has bi:en a
resident of Lincoln for twenty
three years. Kvcry laboring man
and every citizen of the ward who
believes in helping a deserving
young man along, should give him
their support.
Sam Low, the boss dude, if
elected clerk of the district court
is going to convert the clerk's of
fice into a rogular dude pasture.
His boon companion, Joseph Mal
Jiiieu, the pink of dudes, it is now
announced, is to be the head push
clerk, although his home, when he
is not holding an office down, is in
Kearney. He is also a young man
conspicuous for his freshness. But
then it is that class of "young
men" who are running the repub
lican machine this year.
The evening News is very much
exercised lest the populists do
something to injure Fred Miller's
candidacy, and advises them to
cease calling John Trompen
"Wooden-shoe Dutch." That ad
vice would be very good were it
not that republicans, who are play
ing double with Trompen are the
promulgators of that dirty fling
against their own candidate. But
you are all rifjht, neighbor; at any
rate you mean all right. Keep up
