ORDERS FOR CARDS
Readers of The Independent Will Push the Sale of
Liberty Building: Subscription Cards
at Conventions
EVERY DELEGATE SHOULD SUBSCRIBE
As the Official Representative of His Party it is His Duty to Keep Himself
Informed in Political Affairs '
In the history of The Independent
the readers of the paper have never
shown more, loyalty or interest la
helping to increase the circulation
than at the present time. Every
mail bring3 encouraging letters anl
many large orders for Liberty Build
ing subscription cards. During this
week many county conventions will
t J A. T 1 A A XI A A -
ue neiu 10 name aeiegaies to iue siaie
convention which meets at Grand Isl
and, June 24. In many of the coun
ties the nominations for county offi
cers win oe maae ai me same ume.
The Independent hopes to have one
or . more of its readers at each con
vention taking orders for Liberty
Building subscriptions. The man who
Is sent as a delegate to the county con
vention or as a delegate to the state
convention becomes the official repre
sentative of his party in the same
manner that a member of congress
3s the official representative of the
people of his district. As the official
lepresentative of his party every dele
gate is under obligations to acquaint
himself with all matters pertaining to
political affairs in order that he may
act at all times for the best interests
of his party. In many cases delegates
regard their duties and obligations to
the party too lightly. They frequent
ly look upon their selection as dele
gates as only a personal compliment
nnd forget the duties belonging to the
position. It is a i n-sonal compliment
to be sent as the official representa
tive of the party, but there is also an
Implied contract on the part of the
delegate when he accepts the position
that he will do all things necessary for
the proper discharge of his duties. The
first and most, important should be
to thoroughly acquaint himself with
political conditions to enable him t.i
act Intelligently upon every question
that arises. ? He cannot do that better
than to subscribe: for and read The
Independent regularly. , It is every
where recognized as the leading peo
ple's party paper in the state or United
States. It investigates with great care
every1- matter of political -importance
and publishes the results of the in
vestigation without fear or favor. No
delegate. , can properly discharge his
duties without reading it. "When he
returns from the convention his neigh
bors, both political friends and re
publicans as well, have a right to sup
pose that he knows something about,
political issues. They can properly
ask him for information. How can
he furnish it unless he reads The In
dependent? Readers of The Indepen
dent should present the matter to ev
ery delegate who Is not a subscriber
and insist upon his giving them an
order for his subscription. A people'3
party man who does not read The In
dependent is about as capable and val
uable in a campaign as a soldier with
out a :rifle or ammunition. It is the
most essential part . of his fighting
equipment. . ,.

Proposed Liberty Building
A Home For The Independent. Two Stories 25x142 Being
Erected From the Sale of Liberty Subscription Cards
by the Readers of The Independent
For many years the greatest need
of The Independent has been a per
manent location a home of its own.
Once secured, expenses can be re
duced and the paper made a greater
power for good and more valuable
rand interesting - to its readers. To
build this home The Independent has
asked the co-operation of its readers
in the sale of 10,000 subscription cards.
The cards are printed on regular U. S.
postals and are put up in blocks. of
five. Each card Is good for a year's
subscription. For the five cards (five
yearly, subscriptions to be sent to five
different persons) the charge is $3.00,
60 cents for each card. The regular
subscription price of The Independent
is $1,00 per year, and for single sub
scriptions it does not accept less tnan
that. It Is only because funds are
needed for the construction of Liberty
Building that the unparalleled offer
of five yearly subscriptions for only
$3.00 is made. . -
Candidates For Governor
(Continued from Page 1.)
the chief friends of Mr. Bryan in the
fight to rescue Nebraska democracy
. fromT Clevelandism, and championed
the cause of free silver in an extended
newspaper debate with Henry -W.
Yates of Omaha. He supported the
nomination in 1894 of Holcomb for
6vciiiui uy me ueuiut-ia,is, anu was
chairman of the democratic state cea-r
tral committee from 1894 to 1896. He
was chairman of the Bryan delegation
to the Chicago convention and repre
sented that delegation before the na
tional committee and the committee
on credentials. In 1896 he was electe l
attorney general and served four
years. He conducted successfully a
series of cases brought against the ex
press, telephone and " railroad compa
nies in which the power of the stat
to regulate those companies was - in
volved. His trial arid conviction of
Bartley and of Moore, his fight against
the grain, Standard Oil and other
trusts is familiar to all Nebraskans,
as is the many other services rendered
to the people during his incumbency
of the office of attorney general.
GEN. VICTOR VIFQUAIN.
Gen. Victor Vifquain, now ' a resi
dent of Lincoln, Lancaster county, was
born' in r Belgium 65 ' years go,- but
came to America at . an early age.
Forty-four years of his life he has
been an ardent, energetic democrat. '
He enlisted in the union army In
June, 186L Was mustered out Decem
ber, 1865, as colonel of the 97th Illi
nois. Was by President Abraham Lin
coln breveted everything up to an 3
including brigadier general. Received
a meda! of honor from congress DUR
ING the war, NOT aftei4. Was mem
ber of constitutional convention L of
1871. Has been consul ; and ' consul
general for the United States at Co
lombia. Became colonel - of the 3rd
Nebraska volunteers in the Spanish
American war after the resignation of
Colonel Bryan.
Gen. Vifquain says: "You ask what
about delegations? I know nothing
about them,, and care less. I never
dabble in delegations. I , want the
people to have unchallenged and un
trammeled choice. I believe in the
office seeking the man, and not the
mafn the office. The latter is where all
our troubles come from.
"You ask about 'taxes? Equal tax
ation between people and corporations.
I consider 'franchises the basic ele
ment of -value of any public works
and . they should be taxed accordingly.
I want it to be strictly understood
that I am against corporate aggression
and taxshirking."
Gen. Vifquain is the only Nebraskan
that ever received a medal from con
gress. He is the only democrat o?
Nebraska that went to the war from
Nebraska; and who returned with high
rank and remained a democrat. Gen.
Vifquain also enjoys the distinction
of having won the first victory, for
municipal. ownership of public works
in Nebraska, when his paper; the Daily
State Democrat, advocated that Lincoln-should
own the waterworks. Hi3
nomination for . governor would ' be a
recognition of the newspaper frater
nity, Gen: Vifquain being a writer of
marked ability. r
DR. ROBERT DAMERELL. -Dr.
Robert Damerell is a physician
and surgeon, residing in Red Cloud,
Webster county. Was born at Peoria,
111., forty-nine -years ago. Is a mem
ber of the people's independent party,
and was formerly a republican. Hi
public services are, limited to a little
over four years as superintendent at
the hospital for. insane at Hastings
"I never held an elective office or
asked for one," he remarks. However,
the doctor's four years at the head of
the Hastings institution show him to
have a high degree of executive abil
ity, and he set the pace -which subse
quent administrations have been
obliged to follow or fall behind.
Anent the subject of taxation, Dr.
Damerell says: "I am in favor of tax
ing all property in the state of Ne
braska equally according to its valitc,
and am certainly in favor of equitable
taxation of railroads, telegraph, tele
phone and insurance companies, as
well as all other properties of like
nature. I believe this is right, and be
fore the populist party succeeds it
must take a stand in the .matter and
carry it out to the letter."
WILLIAM HENRY THOMPSON.
Hon. William H. Thompson, pop
ularly and familiarly known as the
"Little Giant," is a resident of Gran I
island, Hall county. He is forty-eight
years of age, of Scotch and Irish
descent, "so remote, however," he
says, "that I think I am entitled-to
claim that I am an American citizen,
both by reason of place of birth and
ancestry."
Mr. Thompson is frequently men
tioned as. a possible candidate by var
ious newspapers, although he assures
The Independent that he is "in n
sense a candidate for the nomination
for governor before the coming con
vention." "If I have ever rendered
the public any service," he continues,
"it has been along the line of obtain
ing for it honest and economic gov
ernment. I am certainly a believer In
the theory of taxation which includes
as a part of the taxable assets of a
corporation, its franchise. At least
there is no reason why it should es
cape taxation."
Mr. Thompson has always voted the
democratic ticket, and was the na
tional committeeman for Nebraska a
number of years. He has always been
a prominent figure in every democratic
convention, and as a peacemaker,
when the populists and democrats get
into a convention wrangle, he has fe-v
equals. Because of his eminent fair
ness in all differences between the al
lied parties, he has a host of staunch
friends and admirers among the pop
ulists. GEORGE W. BERGE.
George W. Berge, the past twelve
years a resident of Lincoln, Lancas
ter county, was born in Illinois, July
21, 1864. In . 1890 he came to Nebras
ka and has been practicing law here
ever since. Mr. Berge says: "My
father and relatives were all repub
licans prior to my coming to Nebras
ka. In the fall of 1890 I voted for
Bryan for congress and after the for
mation of the populist party I have
always been identified with that par
ty and attended its conventions."
In 1894 Mr. Berge was elected coun
ty judge of Lancaster county, but nev
er served because the incumbent in
office refused to deliver possession.
The county commissioners at first
would not approve his bond and he
was obliged to compel them to do so
by mandamus proceedings. Then ho
brought quo warranto proceedings to
try the question as to who was entitled
to the office; the district court held
against him, but he went to the su
preme court and won just forty days
before the term expired. Under the
Nebraska practice, motion for rehear
ing, may be filed within that time,
which was done, and before mandate
could be issued the term had expired.
Mr. Berge had attended practically
every state convention since 1894. He
was before the first district congres
sional conventions of 1896 and 1898,
and was nominated for congress in
1900 and defeated. In Lancaster coun
ty Mr. Berge received more votes than
any other candidate on the fusion
ticket more votes than the electoral
ticket, although Mr. Burkett got al
most ; three hundred votes less than
the republican electoral ticket. f
Mr. Berge has decided views on the
question of taxation. He believes that
franchises ought to be taxed as the
constitution provides. "Of course, It
is hot right," he says, "neither is it
wise In any sense to say that railroads
ought to . pay more than their just
share, but they should not be allowe-1
to shirk and should pay their share
of .the taxes.'- . --ri.'-i
He requests The Independent to say
that he is not a candidate for gov
ernor; that no delegations will be In
structed upon any request from him.
"I believe," he remarks, "that the con
ventions should use their best Judg
ment when- assembled as to whom
shall be nominated."

RODERICK DHU SUTHERLAND. ;
born forty years ago, in Scotch Grove,
Jones county, la., of Scottish parents.
Hi3 people" were originally all repub
licans, but Mr. Sutherland joined in
the people's .movement ' at an.', early
date. 'He was "elected county attor
ney of Nuckolls, county" in 1890 ana
was re-elected twice.: In" 1896 he was
elected as member- of 'congress from
the Fifth district and "was re-elected
in 1898. His second term' he was made
a member of the house committee on
coinage; " weights and ' measures, on.
of ; the most important in ' the house.
Was also the ranking member of the
committee on irrigation "of . arid lands
the most important in " the ' house at
this time. - By "ranking 'member" is
meant that by long service' One moves
ud "toward' the head of 'the" c6mmittee,
and in this case Mr. Sutherland was
the first member on our" side. Had he
been re-elected and- the house demo
cratic,' Mr. Sutherland' ' would have
been (ihairman of the committee at
this" time: : . ; "" ' ;
Mr. Sutherland was chairman of the;
state convention at Omaha in 1899
when Holcomb was nominated for su
preme judge, and .waa one' of "the dele
gates' to the : national' convention at
Sioux Falls in 1900.
: For some time Mr. Sutherland has
been widely and favorably spoken of
as a gubernatorial candidate, and was
regarded by many as one of the prob
abilities. Not long since, however, he
gave ' 'out an interview" in " which he
withdrew' his name. This was a great
surprise to his many' admirers, bat
The" Independent understands that Mr.
Sutherland believed that with four
teen or fifteen candidates," each with
more or. less following, 'that the con
ventions at ' Grand Island v would have
difficulty in making a nomination, and,
with his usual self-sacrificing nature,
in the ' interests of harmony1 ; he with
drew his name.' The Independent is
of 'the opinion, however; " that Mr.
Sutherland's friends will not be in
clined to take '.'nov for ah answer, and
does .npbelieve that with a large field
to select' from any more difficulties will
be encountered ; than if it were nar
rower. The , convention's duty is to
select the most available man, and it
certainly' should not be prevented
from considering the strength and fit
ness of .Mr. Sutherland.
: DR: CHARLES E. COFFIN.
The subject of this sketch was born
in Michigan in 1865, but has been a
resident of Nebraska' 21 years. Was
brought up "a republican, but did not
succeed in voting the ticket, because
by the time he attained his majority
his confidence ; in the party had been
destroyed by its methods of conduct
ing the affairs of government, espe
cially in his county, and In the state.
Dr, Coffin was 'an Independent voter
before the people's independent party
came into existence.
The history of his success is the
old, old "story of teaching school, at
tending medical college, and finally
practicing. Dr. Coffin has had long
service on the pension board, was
coroner of his county, and served six
years at the Lincoln hospital for In
sane,' four as assistant superintendent
and two as superintendent. Since the
"redeemers'! gained control of the
state, th6 doctor, , to use his language,
has "settled down in a pleasant home
with a nice, quiet practice in the best
1,500 population town in the state."
(Ord.) ,-; -' : . : ; ; . .
"Your suggestion," ' says Dr. Cof
fin, "that the people are watching the
railroad and other tax questions, is no
mistake. It seems to me that the en
tire revenue proposition of the state
is of the utmost -importance. Valley
county is a "pretty fair example of
populist control. ; Except for a mod
erate bonded debt, which cannot ' be
paid now, the county has no Indebted
ness; and I heard the county treasurer
complaining today of the large accu
mulation of money in the various
funds. A good revenue law must be
provided, for the state,, and pending
the time when such. a law can be en
acted, our state board of equalization
must be required to secure for taxa
tion" purposes the exact value of ( all
railroad and other corporation proper
ties, including their', franchises and
everything which tends to make their
stocks valuable,- and then levy the as
sessment equally on them and all oth
er properties Let - the corporations
have their legal rights, but no more.
"But the government ought to own
all these public utilities. Valley coun
ty populists. In -the best convention
we havehad itor years, unanimously
indorsed my candidacy. So did the
democrats subject only to the reserva
tion of the possibility of nominating
a democrat." Dr. CpfBn will . dou'TCt

counties surrounding Valley, as well
as : other counties scattered over the

GEN. VIFQUAIH'S POSITION
Exeerpti From Speeches Made Ow 30
Tears Ag;uAnti-Ionopllst 'Since
Palmy 3Dy of Toting Rail
Read Bonda.
Gen. Victor Vifquain, who has a
host of admirers throughout the state,
is one of those who sincerely believe,
that the office should seek the man
and not the, man the office. A number
of - Nebraska papers, among them be
ing the Adams County Democrat and
the Nebraska City News, "have been
urging that the general should be
nominated for governor by the fusion
forces at Grand Island. General Vif
quain has made no effort to secure any
delegations whatever, being consis
tent with his ideas about the office
seeking the man. It is well known by
old residents of Nebraska although
the younger men may know little
about it that General Vifquain is one
of the original anti-monopolists in
Nebraska. It was through his efforts
that the city of Lincoln now Owns its
water works ' system. ;
.'The following are extracts from
speeches made by General Vifquain at
Milf ord in February, 1872. They are
taken from the Blue Valley Record of..
that month. The editors of the paper
were Culver & Parsons. The speecnes
were made in a campaign against the
issue of county bonds in aid of the old
Midland Pacific railroad. It seems
that the county board had issued the
bonds before the result of the election
was known and had them locked up in
the vault. The election was a victory
for those opposed to the bond issue,
but1 the bonds shortly afterward were
stolen (?) from the vault ana some
how got into the hands of an innocent
purchaser "for value before maturity"
and the county had to pay. In one of
the speeches General Vifquain said:
'Men of the west! let us unite as
one man against the encroaching pow
ers of corporations. These corpora
tions, gigantic as they become, are
the most dangerous enemy that a
country like ours can possibly meet;
for the centralization of such enorm
ous amounts of money into the hands
and rings of a half dozen corporations
in. the United States must necessarily
Impoverish the laboring and middle
classes and poverty is demoralizing.
When' traitors attempted to destroy
our government there were men to
meet them and to crush them. The
enemy now is more dangerous; for
when capital will attempt to destroy
the freedom of labor at the ballot box,
we shall only be able to unite under
the fragments of our once proud and
brilliant republican banner a demor
alized and impoverished mob little
better than a gang of slaves. That is
where we are now drifting.
"Corruption now-a-days has reached
such a height that by our highest offi
cials of the government, even by our
legislatures, we are often exposed to
be sold to the interests of corpora
tions; and we, the people, have, but
one remedy short of blood, and that is
to drop all party lines and take for
our. motto, 'Anti-Coporation, and
Honesty!" The welfare of the people
cannot remain any longer in the hands
of corporations their welfare must
and shall remain in the hands of the
people!"
At another time he said:
"For a nation like ours, for a people
like ours, to rush headlong into such
a perilous undertaking, would be crim
inal in the extreme, and the history
to be written by the sons, when the
fathers will be no more, will curse the
American citizen who has allowed the
robes of liberty , to be trailed In the
dust, and our once bright starry re
publican banner tarnished by finan
cial corruption and despotism. We
have a sacred duty before us. Provi
dence has seen fit to confide to our
people the rulers of this democratic
republic a nation to serve as an ex
ample to the world to serve as the
advance to the regeneration of man
kind from monarchical and despotic
rule to serve as a shield against pub
lic oppression, to serve, in one word
as a refuge, to those whom in other
lands are oppressed by a set of ty
rants, and to make of man what God
intended ' him to be, a free moral
agent.
"I tell you we are drifting In that
shameful and terrible wake. Every
time you can it is your duty to strike
a blow in self-defense, by casting your
ballot against monopolies. If you do
not, the time Is not far distant when
we shall see the spirit of liberty flut
ter over a sea of blood, and finally be
drowned in that blood of American
citizens,. American freemen, by a set
of American demagogues and despots.
African slavery has just been abol
ished. Shall we take their place with
out striking a terrific blow?"
General Vifquain has, occupied the
same ground ever since. His Daily
State Democrat is full of the same
kind. . "
One of the most philosophical and
practical lectures ever given in Lin
coln was given last . week by Booker
T.f Washington of Alabama. It was
not only practical and sensible, but
it was well spiced. The drift of his
argument was against the prevailing
idea that an educated person should
not do manual labor; he should .live
by his brain alone. The main drift of
education should be to teach pupils
self-support and home-building. The
man and woman who do not build
comfortable home and own it them-
selves are not worthy to be called civ
ilized. Washington's address was
given before the graduating: class of
our state university. They, with the
interested audience, filled the Audi
torium; We did not like the flowing
robes and morter-board hats worn by
the students, neither did we like so
much paint -on the faces of singers.
The robes brought to mind the royal
clothing -of centuries ago and the
paint made us think of the war
painted Indians. On the whole, the
university year has been a growing
success. H. . W HARDY,
