HOW IT WAS DONE.
The Fpullnt State Committee Send Their
Thank, and Congratulation to the
Workers in the State.
1.. -fitting that every friend of good
government should be congratulated be-oause-of
the brilliant victory achieved
at. the polls last Tnesday. Every man
who east his Tote for Silas A. Holcomb,
John L. Teeters and Edson Rich, by so
doing expressed his wish that the high
est Judicial tribunal of Nebraska shall
be eourt of last resort for all the peo
ple, instead of a defender of corpora
tion tyranny and robbery; that the State
University shall be rescued from the
hands Jof corrupt politicians and con
ducted as it should be a great institu
tion of learning where the youth of Ne
braska may learn to love the Declara
tion of Independence rather than En
glish nentiments, and to respect the
U. S. Congress rather than the English
Parliament; to admire American institu
tions, American independence and Amer
ican manhood rather than to ape the
English aristocracy in speech and man
nerisms.
Every man who cast his vote for Silas
A. Holcomb, John L. Teeters and Edson
Rich did more than this: "He helped to
pay the highest tribute of respect and
confidence the people of any state ever
paid to any man; because every vote
cast for the fusion nominees meant an
unqualified endorsement of that peer
less statesman and patriot, William Jen
nings Bryan. It meant a vote of confi
dence in every tradition dear to the
American heart; confidence in the wis
dom of our forefathers when they said
We hold these truths to be
self evident, that all men are created
equal; that they are endowed by their
Creator witn certain inalienahle rights;
that among these are life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. ThattOfie
cure these rights, governments are in
Mtituted among men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned. Early in the campaign which has end
ed in such a signal victory for the friends
of reform, this committee, in an address
to the voters of Nebraska, said:
Let no man be deceived regarding
the importance of the coming election
inNt Sraska. Its results will be felt
for ye. rs, not only in this state, but in
the nation as well. Nebraska is the
storm center of political activity and
will be so until after the election to
the presidency of that peerless states
man, William Jenning Bryan, in 1U00.
All eyes are turned toward Nebraska.
An overwhelming victory for the
fusion forces will mean glad tidings of
great joy to the friends of good gov
ernment in other states; and it will
strike terror to the hearts of the ad
. voca es of imperialism, militarism,
monopolies and trusts.
How true this prediction was, in part,
may be known when we consider the
many eminent orators and statesmen
from other states who took part in the
the Nebraska campaign. Standing for
the principles of liberty and good gov
ernment, we may name Hon. John P.
Altgeld, ex-governor of Illinois, Hon.
William J. Stone, ex-governor of Mis
souri, Hon. Charles A. Towne, ex-congressman
from Minnesota, Hon. Robert
Schilling, noted economist, author and
editor of Wisconsin, Hon. W. II. (Coin)
Harvey, of Illinois, Hon. J. H. Davis,
familiarly known as "Cyclone" Davis, of
Texas, Hon. James B. Weaver, of Iowa,
ex-congressman and former nominee of
the people's party for president, Mrs.
Helen Gougar, of Indiana, widely known
as a lecturer and fearless in her advocacy
of truth, besides score of speakers of
lesser note, yet none the less earnest in
their convictions. It is impossible to
overestimate the influence for good ex
erted by these speakers from abroad,
and to each and all of them are extended
the heartfelt thanks of every patriotic
citizen of Nebraska.
On the other side, standing for monop
olies, trusts, imperialism, militarism, and
the gold standard, were many speakers of
national reputation. Hence, it cannot
be said in truth that the election in Ne
braska went by default. Every inch of
the ground was hotly contested, and the
victory for truth and right is in the ul
timate due to the superior intelligence
and judgment of Nebraska people.
It must not be forgotten that the
people of Nebraska owe a debt of grati
tude to the reform press of the state.
The World-IIerald and Nonconformist
of Omaha, and Nebraska Tost and Ne
braska Independent of Lincoln, to
gether with nearly two hundred wide
awake country weeklies, working har
moniously together, made our splendid
victory possible. The constant, con
scientious work of these papers first
provided the way to educate the people
in the principles of correct economics,
and in this campaign appealed to the
patriotism and good judgment of every
reader. All honor to the reform news
papers of Nebraska for the gallant fight
they made in behalf of gxxl government.
While it is true that in the ultimate
the whole credit is due to the voters of
Nebraska for this glorious victory fr
American principles, yet we must not
forgot tho precinct workers, who, with
out jtecuniary reward, devoted many
days to jierfeeting a thorough organiza
tion for tho purjxse of bringing Ui the
polls every negligent elector. Although
this precinct organization was not per
fected in every voting precluct, yet the
beneficial results of such are apparent
to all. All honor to the precinct workers.
Nor should we forget the tireless en
ergy of our noble leader, William J.
Bryan, in the last days of the campaign.
His very presence in the state meant
increased exertions on the part of every
worker. His matchless eloquence wher
ever heard meant redoubled enthusiasm.
And his tour of the state showed to the
world that the people of Nebraska will
be found standing loyally by Bryan,
120,000 strong, in 1900.
A critical examination of the vote of
1899 as compared to that of 1893 will re
veal the fact that the fusion electors
who, being over-confident, stayed at
home on election day in 1898, came to
the polls in 1899. It will further show
that fully 8,000 or 9,000 recruits joined
the reform forces, and that these recruits
are principally voters of foreign birth or
foreign parentage. Naturalized Ameri
cans, born in Germany, Bohemia, Swe
den, Denmark and Norway, know full
well the meaing of a great standing
army and colonial possessions, and they
are nearly a unit in opposing the repub
lican policy as outlined by President
McKinley on these questions. However,
many of tnem are not quite ready to
abandon the republican party until
congress has done something or nothing
to settle the Philippine questiou, and
the vote in Nebraska this year shows
that while with us at heart, only a por
tion of the naturalized Americans who
formerly voted tho republican ticket,
voted with tho reform forces this year.
Too much praise cannot bo bestowed
upon the German, Bohemian, Swedish,
and Danish papers of Nebraska for their
gallant right against imperialism and
militarism.
It was a glorious victory. Let each
friend of reform and good government
congratuiaio nis ncigniKir.

KICK HIM OUT.
I). Clem Deaver should at once resign
his position as national committeeman
of the peoples party. No true populist
denies Mr. Deaver's undoubted right to
entertain such ideas as he chooses upon
any and all questions; but he is not in
accord with tho peoples party of Ne
braska upon matters of vital importance
and has no right to act as national com
mitteeman for that party.
Further than that Mr. Deaver's
actions in the campaign just ended show
him to be a political ingrate, a traitor to
his party, and a stool-pigeon for Rose
water. This latter accusation has been
made lefore Biid vigorously denied by
populists gennerally; but Mr. Deaver
threw oil li is mask this campaign and
showed that he has acted the successful
hypocrite for a number of years. He
should resign as national committeman
Let every populist write Mr. Deaver at
Omaha asking him to resign. If he has
a spark of manhood left he will not
longer hang to a position where he is
not wanted.
INDIANA TRAITORS.
Gold Bug Democrat. I'anning t Get Cob
trol of the Party in That State.
Indiana was lost to Bryan ia the last
campaign through the influence of a lot
democratic traitors who were on the
central committee. The same lot are
now planning to do further evil work,
There are not less than 50,000 free silver
republicans and populists in the state
who are ardent supporters of Bryan and
every man in a:d out of the state knows
that it will be impossible to win unless
there is a full and honest co-opperation
of all the free silver forces. These con
spirators know that as well as any one
else and their whole effort is to prevent
fusion in the hope that they can save
the state in the presidential campaign
r it I i r . i r w. .
tor inane iianna ana ;ue turner, in the
last election, many thousand free silver
democrats refused to go to the polls aad
vote because they had no confidence in
the men on the state central committee
whos were running the campaign. In
diana free silver democrat have been
sold out so often by their leaders, that
thousands of them have taken a solemn
pledge that they will never again vote
for a man of that kind. They haven't
forgotten Dan Voorhees and 'ft! and
are not likely to.
If the national democratic committee
really expect to carry Indiana, it will
have to get a move on itself, get into In
diana and see that the men who have
charge of the campaign in that state
make every honorable effort for all the
forces to co operate. Attention is called
to the following letter from Mr. Van
Vorhis, who took no small part in the
campaign in this state:
Editor Independent: By some means
I have not received the paper. You will
remember I subscribed and paid for it
while there.
1 congratulate you ujHtn tho splendid
victory in Nebraska. The result in Ne
braska and inthe other states ought to lx
regarded, I think, as a demonstration of
the necessity for complete and cordial
co operation of the reform elements. If
our forces will heed the lenson, it will lie
worth to tho cause in 1900 all it has cost
in this election. Mr. Bryan must le
greatly rejoiced at the result in Nebras
ka. He has been so iieristcnt in his
counselling generous harmony that the
success of this policy in Nebraska must
Ikj a matter of great satisfaction to biui.
If there had been the same united effort
in Ohio, the result shows that we should
have won there, while in Kentucky the
matter would not now be in doubt
I do not Bee very much chongo in the
situation in Indiana. You understand
the nature of the organization the demo
cratic party has here. The present or
ganization is not likely to give any assist
ance to any effort to change it On the
contrary, they era making an effort, I
believe, to prevent any considerable in
terest being taken in the new commit
tee to be selected in next month. I very
much fear that the same old crowd will
be in control of the organization, if in
deed their control is not strengthened.
I send you herewith an editorial from
this morning's Sentinel that will give
you a little idea of what is going on. In
looking over the list of interviews you
will see the Sentinel is very particular
to interview no one except republicans
and gold democrats except in two in
stances, Mr. Gooding and Mr. Wright.
You have, probably, noticed that Mr.
Morse of the Sentinel has announced
himself as a candidate for delegate at
large to the next national convention.
These two columns of interviews, I sus
pect, have no purpose except to adrence
the interests of M unlock for state chair
man. The burden of the democratic song is
to be found in the last paragraph of Mr.
Holtzman's interview. He repreents an
element that refuses to treat either the
populists or silver republicans wifh de
cent courtesy. As there aro no factions
in the democratic party, except Chicago
platform democrats and irold democrats
and their sympathizers, it is readily un
derstood what is meant bv stonnimr
strife in the party.

Nepolean McKinley
1 Consider these two "regular princi
ples" for the guidance of the United
States in its relations with, the Philip
pines, laid down by the commission as
principles of "cardinal importance:"
('l.) The supremacy of the United
States must and will be enforced,
throughout every part of the archipela-.
go, and those who resist it can accom-.
plish no end other than their own ruin. ,
(2.) To the Philippine people will be!
granted the most ample liberty and self-.
government reconcilable with the main
tenace of a wise, just, stable, effectivo ,
and economical administration of public
affairs and compatible with the sovereign .
and international rights right and the
obligations of the United States." IfT
the Filipinos submit to American rule,
and recognize our sovereign rights they
will be well treated. If not, they but.
accomplish their 'own ruin.' Truly a.
sentiment worthy of a Nanoleonl Chi
cago Record.
The Filipinos
They lead a happy life. The food la
cooked over a crockery stove. It might
bo said that the cooks "fry" and "boil"
on these stoves, but they cannot "roast"
or "bake." The floor ix the table; and
all squat "around the dishes of food,
eating with their fingers and talking and
laughing when their mouths are not too
full: After night falls perhaps the old
est girl gets her guitar and signs the
songs of her people. At times the songs,
are sad ones, and tell of the sudden
storms at sea and the fathers who never
returned. Again they are pathetic, por
traying the heartache of a lovelorn
maiden, and sometimes they are ringing
with sentiment Harry A. Armstrong.
