jut. ujiilavjiu to. inc. icvm--Keep
ia mind that tYw election U a
fight with and against the railroads, the
corporation monopolies, the money
power. The Use adruiu that lor fifteen
years the railroads have corrupted our
state officials and dominated our law
making assemblies; and that the agri
cultural class, exasperated beyond en
durance, organized to fight and over
threw this lobbying, corrupting, ever
growing power. The wealth producers
of this grand fertile state hare been
year after year with utmost exer
tion gathering and transmuttiag the
riches of the soil, raising enormous
crops, and the railroads have robbed
them by unjust charges, rates regu
lated by a greed which asks only "what
tho traffic will bear." The railroads
have thus served as drains to convey
our hard-earned wealth into the coffers
of non-resident eastern stock-holders,
the people cf our towns and cities
(money Joiners excepted) as well as
those cultivating the land, beingequally
injured by the eastern flaw.
Bold, shameless, outrageou', have
been the hitherto successful efforts of
the railroads to control or obstruct leg
islation and defeat the people's will. A
few republicans have fought them
honestly, courageously and persistently,
but such have been retired and pliant
tools put forward. Reese was defeated,
and Post, with the record of a rebuke
from the supreme court for favorisg the
11. & M. K. R. in a case tried before
him, was made their candidate. In the
effort to elect this railroad judge and
others' the B. & M. company has, dead
to all sense of decency, uncovered its
hideous form, disclosed its corrupt
record of pass bribery, its crgan, the
State Journal, adding thereto such
devilish lies as it could hope people
would, perhaps, believe, the whole
beastly scheme being an effort to con
vince the people that the new party was
as much under the railroad contrcl as
the old.
But the people see that the railroads
and their organs are lighting the inde
pendent ticket and fighting it bitterly
They cannot be deceived. And they
cannot be driven by the "stop thief"
tactics back into the clutches of the
gang that stripped them.
One man on the independent ticket
has the honor of being hated by the
railroads more intensely than any other
man in Nebraska. Ex-Attorney Gen
eral Leese they know. They have
tested his incorruptible integrity. They
have proof of his ability and whole
hearted devotion to the cause of justice,
the people's cause. They will do their
utmost to defeat him, concentrating
their power and bringing every politi
cal influence to bear to do it. But we
believe he can be elected by a majority
which will humble the high-handed
meddlesome tyrants, and that they will
hereafter have less confidence in their
attempts to interfere with and thwart
the people's will. Vote for and between
now and election work for all the peo
ple's candidates. But especially exert
yourselves in this district to elect Gen
eral Leese.
AX EDITORIAL SKUNK.
Tho Journal published its boomerang
about pass Z 22,492, which it said w&b
"issued to J. Burrows" on the request
of R. R. Randall. On the Sunday fol
lowing it received a letter from Mr
Randall showing that Mr. Burrows
never saw the pass. This letter is
published above. The Journal stated
the fact of receiving the letter, in an
obscure place on its page, but did not
publish the letter. The editor of that
paper is properly characterized at the
head cf this article. He deserves, and
we believe receives, the unutterable
contempt of every honorable, fair
minded man. lie is the man who pre
tends to blush for J. Burrows.
He publishes a pretended quotation
from our Minden speech, intended to
incense the democrats. We will say to
the democrats that tho Journal is not
good authority. We want the votes of
our democratic friends, and expect to
have them. Self-respecting democrats
will not vote this year to perpetuate
corporation misrule in Nebraska.
OUR COMMON INTERESTS.
The producing classes have ono com
mon interest. The honest workers in
town and country, all whose services
are needed by the world, by their fellow
men, desire just laws and men in office
who will enforce them. These classes
should therefore unite.
It needs no argument to convince the
voter that his interests will not be re
garded by men who have a monopoly of
anything he needs, or whose service he
is compelled to obtain. Trusts are not
formed to beneiit the people. The rail
roads are not run for them, but the peo
ple exist for the railroads, at present.
Human nature is too selfish to be en
trusted with despotic power, and the
mistake of the past has beei to allow
men to secure monopoly titles and priv
ileges. The people's party has arisen
to dethrone the monopoly despots who
now rule us, taxing and exploiting tho
workers without conscience. We want
no kiDgs of any kind in this country.
We will not be the industrial slaves of
idle orBcheming plutocrats. If one man
or combination of men is to be allowed
to fix prices for his or their ses vices, as
the trusts and railroads do. all must be
given that power, not the privilege if
one can, simply, but full potential lib
erty. "Equal rights for all, special
privileges to none." Think over the
situation, you who have not hitherto
voted an equal rights, people's independ
ent ticket, and add your votes to ours
to secure justice, freedom and full re
compense to each American citizen
who is disposed to work. ,
We Should say so.
The fact that Judge Post's nominate n
for sapremo judge is satisfactory to
Rosewater of the Omaha Bee, ought to
arouse the suspicions of any hone.' t man

VOTER8J
The work of yonr committee Is nearly
ended. We have done, or tried to do,
our whole duty. We confidently commit
the rest, and the all Important part of
the work into yonr hands. If you per
form your part, all will be well. If you
rally to the polls, and deposit yonr bal
lots, according to your honest convictions,
the first rays of the sun, on the 4th of
November, will be shed upon a state,
redeemed from corporate power, and ring
rule will be at an end, In nearly every
rounty within our borders. But remem
ber that honest convictions, while thy
are all right, will accomplish nothing, un
less backed up by an honest ballot. Time
and money spent in the campaign are a
useless waste, If you stay at home on
election day. There is scarcely an Ameri
can citizen but regards the elective
franchise as bis highest privilege, but
your committee wishes that, Into the ear
of every independent voter in the 6tate,
it couU whisper, on the morning of the
election, "go to tocb polling place;
stat there all DAT. Cast your ballot,
and work for the men who represent your
interests, and who sympathize with you
In your condition, not merely because
it is your privilege to do so, but because
it is your most solemn dctt to do it. You
owe it to yourselves, you owe it to your
children, you owe it to unborn genera
tions, who, each in turn, will have to
take up your burden?, and bear their in
creased and increasing weight through a
weary life. Don't say you have not time
to spare to go and vote. Don't Fay that
your vote is only one vote. Don't say
there are enough votes without mine.
Don't say it will do no good, for the ralV
roads and the money power will carry
the election anyhow. None of these, nor
any excuse you can frame, will relieve
a single independent voter from the
terrible responsibility of staying away
from the polls on the day of the elec
tion. Your committee can and does assure
you, that victory is within your grasp.
You have but to do your duty as faith
fully as your committee, and your speak
eas, and the independent press, have dine
their duty, and the battle of ballots,
which will occur on the 8d day of No
vember, will be the Appomattox and
Waterloo combined of the rail-road and
money power rule in our fair state.
Consider carefully and prayerfully the
interests at stake. A judge of the
Supreme Court Is one of the officers to
be elected. It is one third of the entire
court, and the election is for six years.
It is as its name implies the supreme
court the court of last resort. It is now
composed of Cobb, Norval, and Maxwell.
The first two have been recognized, and
have shown themselves to be under rail
road influence, If not rail-road control. The
people yet have confidence in Maxwell.
fc'o without Cobb the court would be a tie.
If, therefore, needs no argument to show
that the man elected this full will hold
the balance of power, and virtually be
the supreme court of Nebraska for at
least the next two years.
Who shall it be? It must be either A.
M. Post, or J. W. Edgerton. The rail
roads and the money power want Post.
They want him because they know him
His record upon the district bench for
nine years is both familiar and satisfac
tory to them. He has been loyal to their
interests. From his high position, he has
even gone so far,' in instructing a jury,
when the interests of a rail-road company
were Involved as to state the law "in
correctly." Your committee does not make this
charge, butJJudge Reese sitting upon the
supreme bench, and acting under oath,
says so. Judge Maxwell, in reviewing
another case in which the interests of a
rail-road company were involved, and
where certain instructions were asked to
be given to the jury, says "the instruc
tions were evidently withheld as a sup
posed favou to the rail-road company."
No wonder the corporations want Post on
the supreme bench. With two men
on the supreme bench who have
beaten J udge Reese in conventions, the
corporations would have it their own way
for at least four long years. "There's
millions in it" for them. No it cannot
must not be. As there could be no appeal
from, there would be no use in appealing
to, such a court for justice, as between
the private citizen, and a moneyed corpo
ration. Therefore, without regard to your
politics, as you love your own interests,
as you love good government, as you love
Justice, go to the polls and vote for J. W.
Edgerton, and the entire independent
ticket. We have no fear but what you
will do It; but make the majority so great
hat your verdict will, ever after this, be
potent in all future political conventions
in Nebraska.
Stand also by your county ticket, and
let Nebraska, by its grand victory this
fall, start anew the cry of, "On to Wash
ington in 92."
Our hope is the common people. Our
hearts are in their cause, and our earnest
prayers are for their success. Brothers,
don't disappoint us. Do your duty, and
send us the good news, from every county
in the state, as soon as possible, as the
only recompense we ask for our services,
conscientiously, and faithfully performed.

THE BATTLE OF THE AGES.
Do your brain weary and your In
tellects ronfuM) trying to grasp, with
what Is jurft, the simple unmixed truth
of the money question? Areyoa unable
to separate right reasoning from so
phistry, detecticg the error of those
who contend?
The secret of right thinking and safe
conclusion is to begin at the beginning.
Money is a circulating medium, a
legal tender, it value being not what
the material may happen to be worth
as a comm.-dity, as gold, silver, nickel.
copper or paper, but the impression of
a government stamp, cf sovereign
power, w hich enables it to discharge
the debts and command the com nodi-
ties and services of all citizens. Money
should have a constant laber value,
shcu'd have power to command always
the same amount of labor. That is
perfect money which costs least, which
is most convenient and which has no
commodity value to interfere with its
stamped value and free use, money
which is first issued by a sovereign
power in payment of labor value re
ceived (the necessary unchanging value
upon which it is bottomed.) and which
enters upon an endless round of circu
lation, discharging every citizen's debts
and commanding every citizen's ser
vices without change of value measure.
Gold 'is not a good cr reliable ma
terial for money, because inconvenient.
because insufficient in quantity, because
its commodity value increases in time
of danger, and because its commodity
value exceeding its stamped value its
use as money is not only destroyed, but
ceasing to circulate as money it pre
vents the free exchange of commodities
and blocks the wheels of industry.
Gold could not be obtained in this
country er by this country during the
civil war to meet, the war expenses,
almost all creditors having to be paid
with some one or other of tho different
issues of paper currency.
The banks of the country suspended
specie payment December 28, 1801, and
the government had no gold, no money
of any kind with which to pay its fast
accumulating war expenses. Money
based directly upon labor, instead of
indirectly upon .abor in the form of
f
gold, while constitutional, most econo
mic and just, was almost a new idea
But to meet the pressing emergency
$60,000,000 of paper money were issued
and made bv act of congress "a full
legal tender, payablo for all debts, pub
lie and private, including duties on im
ports. " And being mada a full legal
tender these paper dollars kept on a
par with gold even when the hoarded
yellow metal mounted to 82.S5, as com
pared with so-called dollars which weie
not created a full legal tender. No
bettor money was ever issued than this
$00,000,000 of paper legal tender and it
all the war expenses had been paid with
this kind of money we should have had
no war debt, no tax upon labor and
constant drain of resources to pay in
terest, and no crushing, corrupting,
class-lcflislatinz money bower. Wo
should be today a free, prosperous,
happy people.
But the bankers were alarmed by
this issue of non-interest-bearing full
legal tender paper dollars. They saw
that if money should be so made they
would cease to have a monopoly of it,
and their power to demand interest of
the government and the debtor class,
their power to enrich themselves by the
sweat of others, would be ended. They
therefore entered congress during the
war and while the peoplo were watch
ing the battles at the front, corruptly
and traitorously put chains of slavery
upon tho whole nation, p.nd made the
money power sovereign, by preventing
the farther issue of full legal tender
national currency. The so-called dol
lars afterward issued to please and
serve the bankers were made convert
ible into United States bonds, dollar
for dollar; but were not a legal tender
for all debts, and were in consequence
worth less than gold and the previous
paper full legal tender. Congress at
the behest of the bankers stamped a
dollar on what it would not take as a
dollar, except as pay for the gold-interest-bearing
bonds, and so the banks
getting possession of this paper where
gold had to be purchased with it, they
were able by means of it to buy up the
bonds for less than half what they were
worth. The bankers' capital was thus
more than doubled by act of congress,
the nation having to be taxed forever
to thus enrich the vile successful trait
ors, lne interest aireaay paiu upon
these labor-eating, enslaving, unneces
sary bonds has been several times more
than the war expenses and a large part
of the bonds, the principal, is still un
paid.
But the bank act which enabled the
banks to deposit these untaxed interest
bearing bonds, ia the treasury and with
this security issue government endorsed
bank notes and 1 lan them 10 the people
as money, and tne acts retiring anu
burning outstanding United States
treasury notes to give to the bank notes
greater value, were crowning acts of
intrigue, robbery and money power for
tification. The "credit strengthening
act," so-called, and the demonetization
f silver added immensely to tho riches
and to the damnable record of the
money power, and we now behold it
flaunting legal titles to over half of all
the wealth of the country, to the most
valuable real estate, mines and other
monopolies, and controlling not only
the circulating medium, but, one with
tho railroad kings, the transportation
business, so making a commercial plu
tocracy beneath whom, and to perpet
ually increase the wealth and power of
whom, the masses, farmers, mechanics
and laborera, are chained to treadmill
toil.
Had the nation paid its war debts as
it began to do, with full legal tender
paper moncy,lho financial burden would
have fallen equally upon all and would
have been hardly felt by any; the per
petual, enormous load of interest would
not have bren cl aloed to the producing
claw; the thotmnd upon thousands of
financial wreck of the claim robbing
and classnrichlug contraction period
would not have occurred, in connection
with the enforced Mlen. hunger and
severe privation of million; and the
people would not have been forced to
place upon their property in the last
ten year the nine millions of caucer
mortgages which eat remorselessly and
continually.
The money-power whose history we
have outlined, by means of robber laws
and tho granting of class privileges ha
made and placed in power 8I,OOt) mil
lionaires, and forced at least .10,000,000.
made dependent on them for work,
wages and prices, to be their industrial
slaves.
The strength, the defense of the
money power and of capital over labor,
is its power to enforce the payment or
division of interest. The banks loan.
not their own simply but tho money of
depositors, over and over again, aud it
is a reasonable estimate that the cur
rency uf the country costs the people
and pays to tho money lenders twenty
five per cent of its whole amouut yearly.
The interest or usury power of money,
as now made and issued, is the pivot,
we may say, upon which fortune and
misfoi tune turns, bringlDg wealth and
despotic power to the possessor of
money, and treadmill labor, unjust re
turns for labor and increasing depen
dence to an increasing number of the
working millions.
The money monopoly has built up
and fortified every other monopoly.
And it is against this citadel cf ia-
dustrial slavery that the Farmers1
Alliance, Knights of Labor and Indus
trial unions havo risen up, and united
their individual forces in independent
political action. They demand that the
national banking system, which gives
control of money to the shylocks, be
abolished. They purpose to issue when
in power government-stamped full
legal tender paper money direct to the
people, loaning it upon sufficient secur
ity at just enough to cover tho cost of
printing and handling it, two per cent
or less. ThU will destroy not only the
money loaners', mortgago - holders1,
banker robbers' power to oppress, but
that of the capitalists also. All interest
will be reduced to about the govern
mcnt rate. Money will thus be made
the people's servant instead of their
master, and this land will be In very
truth "the home of the free." The
producing classes uniting in the people's
party are fighting tho universal slave
power, a power gigantic, injustice most
ancient, but a power which cannot en
dure the light, which has grown mighty
and subjugated this land by intrigue,
under cover of custom and f jrnij of
law. The battle of the ages is before
us, but by the power of truth we shall
succeed, and the star spangled banner
will lead the enslaved of the whole
earth to liberty. Let the. oppressed
and the justice-loving people join us
and hasten the day of full and final
victory.
FREEMEN. PATRIOTS, CHRISTIANS.
Does the declaration' of independence
voice your sentiments when it says that
life, liberty and the persuit of happi
ness is the inalienable right of every
citizen of the relm? Do you hold sacred
the pledge of fortune, honor and life as
a willing sacrifice for the enforcement
of those principles?
Remember that the ballot box is the
place where this sacred duty must be
performed. There alone can you file
your protest against unjust and vicious
legislation. Men under the guise of
republicanism and democracy have for
twenty-live years recorded on your
statutes unjust and vicious laws laws
that have transferred the earnings of
masses into the hands of 1 bo classes.
Corporations haye enthroned them
selves. They have appealed to your
prejudices, they have foisted upon you
a destructive and damnable financial
system, a child of barbarism and des
potism. This system has been de
nounced by the fathers of both the
democratic and republican party. By
this financial legerdemain labor, after
producing all the wealth of the nation,
finds itself today indebted to capital
that produced nothing in the startling
sum of thirty billions of dollars a sum
that may well cause the patriot's cheek
to blanch with fear. A speedy relief
must be found. This is only possible
through the ballot box. Every vote
polled for the republican or democratic
ticket is an endorsement of the destruc
tive system an endorsement of cor
porate and syndicate rule; while every
vote cast for the independent ticket is a
protest and a rebuke to the corpora
tions and shylocks.
Will you be counted with the men
who are hurrying this nation to the
frightful precipice of revolution an.l
anarchy, oor will you stand with the
men who are strh ing to stem tho tide
of destruction? If you are with the
latter voto and persuade your friends to
vote tho independent ticket. It will be
a vote for freedom it will bo a vote for
civilization it will be a vote for Jmo
and fireside a vote for laughter find
song, for God and humauity. It will
be a voto for true democracy and re
publicanism. Let not rain or storm,
business or pleasure, keep you from the
polls. Your single vote may save from
dire disaster.
These be serious times, notwithstand
ing the juers of men who are selfishly
blind. So go to the polls and vote, vote
for your wife, vote for your babies, vote
for humanity.

HOW ABOUT THIS7
Could It Be roe.ll.le That These SI
Were Caliimltjrit.
Gen. John A Log&n: "The panic
of '73 was attributablo to tho scarcity
of money and not the kind of money."
United States Senator Bowen said:
"Under ono sccrotary of tho treasury
the voltimn of currency was roducod
from two billions of dollars down to
seven hundred millions."
Senator Plumb said: "For thirty
years the whole financial legislation
has boon in the interest of tho bond
bolder and money lendor."
Lincoln said in '64: "As a result
of the war, corporations havo been
enthroned, and an pra of corruption
in high places will follow, and the
money power of the country will en
deavor to prolong it reign by work
ing upon the preiudicos of the people.
until all wealth is aggregated ia the
hands of a few, and tho republic is
destroyed. I feel mora anxiety for
the safety of my country than ever
before, even In the midst of the war.
'God grant that my predictions may
prove groundless."'
President Garfield: "The next groat
question to be confronted by tho poo
pie will be that of corporations and
their relation to the people and na.
tional life. The fear Is now enter-
tained by many of our best mon that
the national and state legislatures of
the union, in creating the vast corpor.
ations, have evoked a spirit which
may escape and defy control and may
wield a power greater man tne peopg
themselves."
What is tho money power? Let
Chauncey M. Depow toll. "Fifty men
in this United States have it in their
power, by reason of the wealth they
control, to coma together within twen
ty -fours and arrive at an understand
ing by which every wheel of trado can
bo blocked and every electric key
struck dumb. Those fifty men can
control the circulation of tho currency
and create a panic whenever they
will."
New York Tribune: "The time is
near wnen tne oanKs win leel them
selves compelled to act strongly.
Meanwhile a very good thing has been
done. Tho machinery is now fur
nished, by which, in an emergency,
the financial corporations of the east
can act together at a single day's no
tice, with such power that no act of
congress can overcome or resist their
decision.
The New York Times expects the
money power to get possession of the
farms by foreclosure of mortgages,
and in a leading editorial, published
August 2 7 lb, 1877, it anticipates the
result, and prepares the public mind
for it. It says:
"There seems to be but one remedy,
and it must come a chango of owner
ship of tho soil, and a creation of a
class of land owners, on the one hand,
and of tenant farmers on tho other
something similar in both cases to
that which has long existed and now
exists in tho old countries of Europe.
Everything seems ripe for the change.
Ihen will begin a new era in agri
culture, and one that seems very de
sirable. Those farmers who are land
poor must sell, and become tenants
inBtead of owners of tho soil."
Lincoln, always the friend of labor:
1 'Labor is prior to and independent of
capital. Capital is but the fruit of
labor and could not have existed had
not labor first existed, labor is the
superior and deserves much the higher
consideration."
Lincoln also said: "You must not
put capital above labor in tho struc
ture of government; but you must put
labor above capital." Chicago Sen
tinel. St. Louis, Oct. 87. Colonel O'Day,
late general attorney of the St. Louis
and San Francisco railroad, who is be
