THE ALLIANCE -INDEPENDENT. 3. A WORD OF WABNING. "Fore-warned is fore-armed." Be tween now and election the stato of Nebraska Is likely to be flooded with tlandera and falsehoods of the rankest , and most damnable character. Al ready the chairman of the national people's party committee has given a timely warning on this point. It is probable that the republicans will flood the state with copies of a sheet called Liberty which is published at Lincoln. This paper' is sailing! under false colors. It pretends to be independent. It carries a portion of the independent ticket at its head. But it is not supporting a single inde pendent candidate, and has not the endorsement of a single independent candidate. charges of corrup'ion, and failure to do their duty. mi m ine oniy persons wnom tnis man or his paper can influence are these who are unfamiliar with these facts. Thousands of copies of his sheet will fall into the hands of men who know nothing of the man's character or an tecedents and some may give ear to his scurrilous attacks. This warning should be spread bo fore the people of the whole state in time to forestall any evil effect from this source. Another word of warning: In Octo ber 1890, two years ago, a card was issued signed by Chairman Blake and Secretary Pirtle condemning General Van Wyck. Since that time both these gentlemen have repeatedly stated that It is openly supporting and praising they were then laboring under a mis several candidates on the old party apprehension, and expressed great re tickets, and has no word of criticism gret for that action. They have en for any of them. tirely repudiated that statement. Now The only apparent object of the the republicans are giving that notico editor is to disrupt and defeat the in- a prominent place in their papers, and dependent party. He fills about four very likely they will have it printed on columns out of five of every issue with posters and posted up at the polling the vilest slanders and abuse of inde- places on election day.

A few years ago men in whose interest they are worked. he was forced by circumstances to make safety for the Parmer. People yet alive can remember the way in which wheat U3ed to be bought over the pile' in this city, the farmer bringing it in being obliged to accept whatever was offered him because there was no competing market and .not even a quotation elsewhero with which to make com parison. The result was thaf the grain bought here in the all uniform ly brought minimum prices. It was held here during the winter and shipped by lake at an enormous profit; the nominal price hero also going up when the farmers had no more to sell."

He swore as follows: "That he had rendered political ser vices for the Union Pacific railroad company in opposing the nomination of Amasa Cobb of Lincoln for supreme judge; that for these services defendant (Holden) had received $300 from the hand of John M. Thurston of Omaha, Neb.; one of the Union Pacific rail road's political managers. That he received, on another occa sion, from Tho3. L. Kimball, one of the officers of the Union Pacific rail road company $1,200, ''as compensation for services to be rendered by defend- ant Moiaenj m nig capacity as news paper editor and otherwise in carrying elections for the benefit of the said Union Pacific railroad company. "That the said sum of $1,200 was in tended as a payment for political ser vices in the election of a United States senator" (A. S. Paddock.) That on another occasion in con sideration of $442 from the Union Pa cific he had opposed and defeated Francis G. Hamer, who was his friend . and security on his note, and who was the regular nominee of his (Holden's) party. Besides this Holden sold out to the democrats in1888 for $200 which he re ceived out of John A. McShane's 'barrel." He has been openly and repeatedly charged with selling out the people's ticket in Buffalo county in 1889, after he had helped nominate it, for $175. This charge he confirmed about one year ago by refusing to deny it under oath and setting up the plea that he did not have to support the ticket be cause he was not a member of the con- - - vention that nominated it. These are only a few of Holden's bood ! ling operations in Buffalo county where his name is a "hissing and by-word" amongst all respectable people.
