The city of Philadelphia is the Lotnu of the Widenere, the Drexels, the Dise- tons, the Dolans, goldbuglam person. fled la its worst phases, tuid the sent of the largest carpet manufactories ia the world outside of Unguiud. A tolstory of these gold standard blood suckers is of interest, iwo or three yean ago the goldbugs pointed wltm pride to the fact that 1 A. 11. Widen er, the boss of them ail, gave hi uiil lion dollar mansion on llroad street to the city as a brunch of 1U free library, Wldener haa been for twenty -five year one of our city railway magnates, eon trolling city council and securing end loss street privileges, giving the peo ple nothing in exchange for the grants given by boodle city counc'iluien, wj voted aa these magnate dictated with a rod aa they Blood, either In person or toy proxy, in the council chamber. One of Widener's partners, Willium Kimble, now deceased, kaid when alivi, in the time of the old home earn, "to bell with yatir men; they are cheap; look after the home." On the buck of these poorly paid men Wldener and Blkina climbed into fortuna'e tent, and out of these Ill-gotten gains, made o. the people's streets Klnib'" built a Methodist' church complete before his death, and now Wldener bribe the public conscience by giving his pal atial mansion to the city that thee hild ren of the poor, 'mode so by capital's harsh grasp as exemplified by Wlden er' street car management, may read cheap Action fret, lie also hoped, In cldeatally, to get the republican r.oin lnotion for governor, but the bribe was to6 conspicuous. T1IE DltEXEIA The Drexels are a numerous family, and related by marriage to Jack Ali tor of New York, First to considered is the Drexel trusteeship, formed by the will of the late great banker, A. J. Irexel, who, In comjwny with the late George VV. Childa, owned the Public Ledger and took pride in hnving the printers make big wages. They were truly kind hearted to that extent. John Lowber WeWh, retiring president of the Union Traction company, is head of the Drexel trustee under the will, and is the connecting Hnk be tween the Wideners and the Drexels awl Morgans of New York. Under Welsh's presidency the street car men struck in December, 1895, against in tolerable tyranny. The city waa Al most solid for Le strikers; people gladly walked, and the wire and daughters of the rich and poor ivnoom plaJniingly rode shopping In dirt carts struck n December, 1805, against In dially hated the railway managers. But John Wanamaker's Christina trade fell off greatly and he pious y offered to settle the strike. Here the strikers made a fatal mistake. He rep resented the strikers at a meeting of tiho railway director and told the men afterwards that if they would go to work the company, at the end of the week, would give them what they wanted. Te men gave in, the strike fell tlhrough, and the men got n"thlnr. At the next election the men. who h twen treated worse than dogs by thia goldbug combination, wore the party buttons of Wanamaker, Welah and Wldener.

To KJho Voters of the State of NeOnrav ka, Lwned by the Populist, Dew emtio and Silver Republican . State Cenltral Conxnit teeSjO Otober 15, 1808. To the Voter of tlhe State of Me Ibros: i ' i Gemtlleinen-You are now upon t!he ere of another election, In which Im portant! problenuv, Involving your o o marteiriai interests and tfhe political welfare of tha state for indefinite peri od, are presented to your mo i t'axe ful and serious oonalderatlon. First, can you, as tax paying citi zens of this state, Who favor pure, hon est end economlo government! who consider office a public trust to be ad ministered in the Interest of all of the people, instead of a private emolument to be administered for tiie benefit of the holder of it who respects the tra ditions that have grown up among: tin, that men who have faith t-ily and aUy administered an office for one. term, ahal have tlhe aprpoval of '"he people shown to them by an election to a sec ond term an you, we aak, as ' men holding and believing these thing, afford to have the nominee Who aie now presented to you for re-election defeated? i We believe you cannot The defeat of these gentlemen menna a condemnation of probity and Integrity in office. It would be equiv alent to saying to tbeae gentlemen1, "Yea, we know that you have ad minis tered tlhe affair of tills state ably and honestly that you have saved us many, many thousand of dollars that your management of tihe school fund haa been by far more successful fhon any previous management tfhat there hna been no defalcatl n or dere liction of duty during your term of office; but still we prefer to return to power fhe men who preceeded you whom we hope will do better In the m ture than they have done in thepast Voters, do you want to say th1 to the gcn11emen who have so ably man aird your affairs for tlhe past two years? Do yon want fhe credit of your be loved state to again be destroyed, and It obligation to go bep-glng on the market at a discount of 8 or 10 per cent? , i Do you wnnt to condemn tne men wfio have raised the credit of you state to a hlcher grade than it ever before occupied? We know you do not; but you will say and do thes things If you allow fihese men to be turned down on the 8th of next r "ntn. 1 The next question to nsk yourselves is: Can you afford to have Senator Allen defeated for re-election to the United State senate? The time honored traditions shove alluded to applies wlflh the greatest force In his case. Bold, able, aggres sive, with a commanding presence, he tins held afoft the banner of his pnrty aa no other man could l ave done wlule serving all the Interests of his at je faithful amd In the best possible man ner. When he took Ma place in the senate he stepped at once Into the front rank of the members of that body. Aa said In a little folder Isued by the state committee, "Hy his ability and character ne nss placed Neftumaka in the front rank of states, sa well as ralied tbe standard of excellence for a United State senator." This la true, and no higher encomium could be re stowed upon him or any man. Votera of Nebraska, do wu wtha to say to him ami tiha world, "Yea, we know that ali thia la true 4bat for ability and integrity no man has siu- poem! you 4 hat your record In the senate ia unexcelled, Mid that you have piwem .-Nebraska in rue trout rank 1 states; but w preier to return our po- micai opponenia 10 power.

Those days belong to all of us, but are no longer in issue, We come down tlhe avenue of time to our own duye, and to line a trad re or our state. These are now In issue. We point, iikxt with pride to maladministration of public aitdrs, to servile submission to cor porate rule, to robbed taxpayers and a plundered treasury -we , point witlh shame to a record of shameto a state with depreciated credit, and Its former leading financial officer in tihe peniten tiary and we tell you that the defeat of Governor I'oyjuter means a return to wiese tninga. , Ttiere is another lminortant reason why you cannot afford tolettheretorm free silver forces 'be defeated In this state this fall. The money question is not settled, and will never be set tled until it U settled' in favor of uie people, tlhe producers and laborers, in stead of the plutocrats and money lords, i Our opponents tell you that the money question 1 dead, yet every one of tilieitr speaker bestow more than half hie time upon that question end tibey have at this moment a bill pend ing to be pusbed at the next congress, retiring the greenbacks, retir ing a l silver and silver certificates, except a token money, and leaving no money for the use of the people except nation al bank notes and gold. Do not believe them. '."The great bat tle of 'OS Is to be fougM over again, and again and again until the Just and npur solution of tliia vital question ound. . (Nebraska la in the van of states on tihe money question, and Nebraska will set the pace for the campaign in 1900. i NO WAIl ISSU15. An effort bos been made and ia being made to divert your attention from the real iaeuee end to convey the impres sion tftiat tlie reform forces of this state are opposed to the war and to tme adminlstmtian in the conduct of it Nothing' is farther from tlhe trurn, tf the question of support or non-support of the war waa to be submitted to the people of this state for its support woiiia oe pracueariy unanimous. We jrlory In tlie fact that our sen ator, lion. William V. Allen, was the first man in congress to submit a res olution in fuvor of the Immediate rec ognition of the independence of Cuba; and in the fact that the populist mem bers of congress have heartily support ed and voted for all war measures of the government. We assert most emphatically that tihere is no war issue. We are a unit oa -that "point.- The heritage of devo tion" to the glory of the nag belong- equally to ail of ii, and we ore nut, for any temporary political advantage, to be deprived of our share of that her itage. Voters, do not for a moment allow yourselve to lie deceived or led away irom xinc real issue. Do you want boneet and economic state government? Will you reward men who have sliown themselves to be boneat and ef fl lent by a re-electioa ? Wild roil von return fienntnr Allpn to the United States senate, or will you send In his place a man who is known to be a goldbug, a facile tool of the corporations and Who saya cheap wheat is a Meaning to the people of a grernt wheat produeinur state 7 Wll you stand up for the credit of elraka by keeping in office tlie men wbo raised this credit to a higher point than It ever before occupied? Will give the lie to the slanderers who ridicule what you have done, who pronounce your economic "sbam re forms," who said you would "bring blight and depression" upon tbe state, who said you "would make the name of our stare a word of reprsach," wbo snow, what tlhey would do by condemn ing and mnHgnHngr every good work you nave done 7 These are the Issues, these are the questions you must answer on tlie 8Uh or Aovem-iier. iou Must answer tdiem whether you will of no.

IAncolm, Neb., October 15, 1808, THEY'VE HAD EN0U01I. We dislike very much to tell other people of their fault. It 1 painful to have to do so. But In justice to the peoplo the good people of Nebraska we feel obliged, from time to time, to remind them of the hort-com!njrs of the republican party in this state, in oraer mat tney may not be deceiv ed into voting for the return of that party to power. Much a we regret to say it, the record of the republican party ia such as to cause the blush of shame to man tle the cheek of every honest man who has ever helped It Into power. Catting itself the "Urand Old Party" and bold ly denouncing all who opposed it as anarchist and breeder of distontent, it succeeded for many yeare in deceiv ing a majority of the people, wbo kept It in power, until It became so rotten that It crumbled and fell of Its own weight. The stench that arose when its foul record was sbown up sickened Che nonest mere Who ma supported It, and thia fall they will either not go to the poll at all, or If they do go they will vote for the men wbo have been instrumental In undeceiving them, the present state ofllcers. Th republican party donned "th livery of heaven to serve lb devil in." It haa received its reward th money nt th vnlera whom it betraved and their eternal contempt which it has earned. 1 HAYWABD A BANKER, II Won't pk to a Working Mas Wbsa H MU On os tha Mrt. 13d Wor Independent; 1 wish to say a few things in regard to the present campaign and throw the X ray on some of the methode that are being used to elect a republican ticket in this county. First, wa have a candid .te for governor, M. L. llayward, who is trying to get an office and manage the same to the wiu ox ui corpcuuone Mr. llayward 1 the recognized attor ney of the II. & M. IUilrood company for eastern Nebraska, and is a danger ous man to have in that position, II is posing as a friend of the old soldier, when It is known that he has fought tlhe interests of the old soldiers in this ci'iy, iio ciaiius vo oe me menu vi the laborer, when it is known that be would not even spvuk to a laborer wklli whom he was well acquainted. He is president of the Cass County Na tional bank of this city and Is said to be worth szso.ooo. jie makes bis mon ey oil the poor people who have been paying him hiifh rates of interest, and Is now working very hard for an of fice where he can work for the inter- eats of the railroads and the money lounera, I find that many people of tb'ia city, Who nave always supported republican candidates, are now ouv spoken in their denunciation of llay ward and say they intend to vote for W. A. Poynter and the fusion legis lative ticket. lat Koddy, who ka running- for the legislature, is also a dangerous man to elect, and the people will retire liiiw to private Lie. He hoe proved himself an enemy of our public iastl tutions and is opposed to good govern ment, and is a tool for the corpora tions. Itoddy will be defeated, as th people don t want to elect a man to an office who seuds three times the sal ary he receives to get it, for they know a loan, who line tflie greed for money that he haa will not atftept ti e office with very goud intention when It oomea to legislating' for the good of the iiewple. Th repirblloan crowd ia playing a two-faced role, thinking that they can fool tha jwuple of this county, but wtien the vote are counted on the eta of November, U w til be found that th verdict will say that the greedy cor poration tools, llayward, flotkly and th rest, tuuet rtJnaiu la private life ami alhiw good, honest i-ltili to manage the affair of this slate, A UUKJIIKU.
