It Is so. Will you Republicans allow

Maxwell, but alio to completely carry
out their ourted plot to put a railroad
tool in his place?
Dots a man deeerve freedom, coin

sprung oa the eve of election. If any
thing true could possibly have bea
found to blast the reputation of our
candidates it would have been spread
before Nebraska voters in time to com'
pel every man to believe it. Nothing
but lies can be published to injure them.
But be prepared to have the campaign
liar do his worst in this year of old party
desperation.
The rumor reaches us that a fake
letter purporting to be sent out by oar
state committee is being fixed up by
the Republicans, and this fake ' letter
and a smooth letter to meet and make
use of it will be sown broadcast by the
fat rascal, Tom Cook, in time to reach
the voters. Remember, our committee
has sent its last word to the people in
this paper (see sixth column). Its work
is all rmbllc and all published. Re
member also that any assertions that
any man en the Independent ticket has
or is withdrawn, will be an absolutely
false statement, from whomsoever it
may purport to come.
Xou is the time for Bryan men,
And anti-goldbugs all,
To proudly handle freedom's pen,

A LAST WOBD TO V0TEE8.
The developments of the last few
days, the discovery that T. O. C. Har
rison was not only nominated by the
corporations that defeated Maxwell,
but that he had been as far back as
1891, making himself solid with local
politicians by means of passes provided
byHoldredge, and so, with railroad
patronage to dispense, wai paving his
way to power when the railroads should
be ready to use him, has materially
changed the political situation. The
Republicans who were before finding it
difficult to believe in Harrison, will now
with loathing reject him, and will turn
to the support of Judge Holoomb, whom
Chief Justice Maxwell so splendidly
endorses. But this defection of the best
element in the Republican party may
be made good by goldbug, and railroad-and-machine-c
an trolled Democratic
votes.
You will remember that the fight in
the Democratic convention was over
the financial question, a national ques
tion, and it was a three to one victory
for the Wall Street, administration,
gold money men. You recall that the
administration used all its power o!
land and postofficc patronage to pack
and manipulate the convention.
Was it with the expectation of -elect
ing its candidates? Not at all. Judge
Irvine, as the Llnooln Herald has ob
served, was the lamb prepared for the
slaughter. Toe .Democrats naa no
chanoe to elect Irvine; but Wall Street
wanted the state convention to endorse
its goldbug president, and it also
wanted control of the party machine in
order to turn It against the Populists.
Under the cover of old oarty names new
lines are forming, the gold men on one
side, and the silver, greenback and
government banking men on the ether.
The money question touches every
pocketbook, and because of this fact old
party ties cannot hold men. Each of
the old parties is being divided by it in
Nebraska here and now. The corpora
tions, the money power and the admin
istration Influence is all in practical
agreement and at work to beat Holcomb
and the People's party. A show of sup
porting Irvine will be kept np, but the
free goldbug democrats will in large
numbers secretly vote for Harrison, and
the corporation-owned and machine
controlled Democrats will be voted for
him. The railroads boast that they con
trol 20,000 votes.
To counteract or effect this movement
pass the word along the Populist lines
for everyone who has any influence with
free coinage Democrats to xelect his
manor men and argue the case and
present the situation to them la the
strongest way possible. Victory would
be easy for us were it not for this secret
fusion danger. Get ready to meet and
offset it by drawing all the free silver
forces to our ranks.

CHIEF JU3TICE MAX WELL EH DO ESES
JUDGE HOLOOMB.
Fremont. Nebr., Oct. 27, 1 !'.
Hon. Edward Rosewater, editor
of
Omaha Daily Bee, Omaha. Mebr, Dear
Sir: 1 see in some ef the papers that
am enthusiastically in favor of Harri
son's election for judge. I have made
no such statement and do not care to be
misrepresented. I regard Holcomb
much the best man. He is a capable
lawyer, a fair, firm, conservative man
under no obligations to any one, and
will make an efficient, capable, good
Judge. Yours very respectfully,
(Signed) Samuel Maxwell.
The above letter has brought sudden
and dreadful consternation into the
camp of the Republican party, and not
without reason. Because it will lead
the Maxwell men, the honest element
of tbe party, to support Judge Holcomb.
The railroad and Impeached Btate
officials' gang which got control of the
state convention ana turned down our
Chief Justice because he stood incor
ruptlbly for tbe people, had the face,
after nominating a man agreeable
the railroads and the impeached
thieves, to publish in a paper of his
own town, the Fremont Tribune, that
Judge Maxwell was supporting Harrl
son, and was enthusiastically in favor of
his election. The bold effrontery of
this unauthorized act, stealing th3
great name and influence of the man
they had thrown Jdown to help elect
pass-aispenuer of uoldredyes to the su
preme bench, beate anything ever before
heard of. But the political gang did
not know that Judge Harrison's smooth
mask had just fallen off, and that be
stood revealed to the people ax the B. &
M. autocrat's political agent and coun
sellor, being seen ae far back as 1891 as
a pass distributor, whom the railroads thus
were providing with the means of making
political adherents to help nominate and
elect him when later they should wish
to
use him.
And now the B. & M. Journal is whin
ing that "It will pain every one of the
men who voted for him Judge Max
well in the state convention under the
impression that he was a conslstentnd
,1.. 1 1 1
me-iong itepuoucan. x
Pain the men whi made a great fight
for the people, and were beaten in con
vention by the railroads, because their
noble leader will not be driven by the
party whip to support, to lend his rep
utation to and inspire confidence In, the
railroad candidate? The letter pro
duced pain, no doubt, but the people it
hurts are the railroad rulers, and their
tools, who will now most certainly fall
in their job and be cheated out of their
pay.
And "a consistent and life-long repb-
lican'' must accept and Kelpelect tho
candidate of thieves' and robber monopo
lisms evlS, though lib be the Chief
Justice of a sovereign state the must
bowtto the law -defy ing, court-controlling
railroads and their selected agents-
he must swallow the convention devil,
horns, tail and all, must he?
If this is your definition of a Repub
lican, Gere, the number of your follow
ers will be set n to be beautifully less on
election day. Selt respect is a stronger
power with honest men than such men
as you dream of.
The weak, miserable effort of the gang
and its corporation-owned sheets to
limit the influence and escape tbe
election effeot of this self-respecting,
consistent, untrammelled utterance of
Judge Maxwell's, will avail nothing
The Republicans of this state have
known hlai too long. His words hsve
character behind them, and weight ami
wUdom to move all honest men
The Republicans who want "a capable
lawyer" and "a fair, firm, conservative
man," who is "under no obligations to
anyone," and who "will make an
efficient, capable, good judge," will all
vote for Judge Holcomb.

l oder the above caption the
State
Journal directs the attention of voters
of all parties to. and strongly endorses,
tho letter of one II. R. Honey, printed
in it editorial columns Tuesdav. But
few Populist punish themselves to read
the despicable, goldbug, corporation
sheet, so we must reprint the letter
that they may see it. Here it is:
Lincoln', Oct 23. To the Editor of
ine biate journal. jAltnough not a
voter of the state of Nebraska I vote
in Indianapolis, Ind. I have been in
this state for the past two weeks and I
have been sorry to note an inclination
upon the part of some Republicans to
scratch the regular nominee of their
party at tbe coming election and cast
their vote for the candidate of the Pop
ulist party for certain offices. Now I
am impelled to give these voters the
advice of the late lamented Josh Bill
ings to the young couple about to marry
"Don't." And thia advice will apply
as well to Democrats who are tempted
to support Populist candidates. You
cannot agord to do it I want to snvto
you as one who has had occasion and
opportunity to find it out that the eyes
of tho east, and especially that portion
of the east who hae surplus money
looking for investments, are watching
clODely the results of every election in
these western states. Every victory for
the Populist party adds another stone
to the dam which that party is building
along your eastern boundary and turns
that much more of the financial current
away from your state. Eastern capital
looks upon the "Peoples' party" of the
west as an enemy to capital, an enemy
to progress, and a party with altogether
unsound ideas upon financial matters.
And capital is human in its nature in
that it seeks a community of friends in
stead of a community of enemies when
looking for safe investments. When
the people of a state show their un
friendliness and antagonism to capital,
aa they do when they elect to public
office men given over to tbe wild and
chimerical ideas of the People's party
with its unsound principles upon
finance and legislation, that moment
eastern capital loses confidence in tbe
integrity of the state, begins to seek
other channels, your credit ls'.impalred,
and holders of your securities show a
preference for their money. The his
tory of Kansas demonstrates this fact.
For years the writer was a resident of
that state and loaned for eastern people
hundreds of thousands of dollars upon
Kansas farms. So long as Kansas had
nothing worse to contend with than
grasshoppers, chinch bugs, hot winds
and cyclones the credit of her people in
the east was first class, and money
cculd be had in abundance. When a
loan matured if the borrower did not
wish to pay, or could not pay, an ex ten
s'eu could he had or a new loan obtained
without difficulty. Whit wa the re
sult when the Populists u.gn to assume
power? Eastern companies notified
their agents to cease loaning in the
state as they could not afford to take
the chances of Populist legislation
or Populist administration of existing
laws. Nebraska cannot afford to follow
in the footsteps of Kansas. You want
eastern money to come to your state.
Tbe more you can draw this way the
stronger the competition and the easier
the terms. But yon cannot attract it
this way by electing to high public
positions representatives of a party
avowedly antagonistic to capital. Do
not say, "let the east keep her money.
for you already have a great deal of it
ana you cannot afford to snake the con
fidonce of the holders of your securities
I know nothing of the merits or the de
merits of the men upon any of the
tickets, but I do know how men of
means in the east look upon these
things and how illy you can afford to
lend your aid in the election of even one
MsrarTrom the Populist party. Every
time you elect sucn a man to a publlo
omce your state gets a oiack mars: upon
the books of eastern investors, and if
the office filled happens to be a judicial
one you set about four black marks and
tally. Nebraska has now all of these
marks she needs. Don't let them add
any more on the election this fall.
H. It. Honey
Mr. Honey speaks very plainly and is
a very good mouthpiece for the money
loaners. You understand, citizens of
Nebraska, they give you warning not to
even scratch the old party tickets, not
to vote the Populist ticket or they will
foreclose their mortgages, refuse to lend
you money to renew tbem. and take
possession of your homes. You must be
driven like cattle to the polls and vote
the old party ticket at the dictation of
the Shylocks, er they will ruin you and
the great state you live in. Elect the
People's representatives this year, and
tbe money-power will withdraw its
embra-ing arms and leave Nebraska to
perish.
Citizeus of America, lovers of liberty,
let your minds be impressed by the
spectacle. The money-power must not
be limited in its aggressions by legisla
tion. Those who would vote for the
liver money of the constitution must
vote for the other enslaving sort A
hundred thousand men in Nebraska who
wish to establish a just, safe system of
government banking, which shall save
tilt producers the vast wealth -con
centrating drain of mury, must be sub
dued by threats and by the pressure of
torturing foreclosure screws applied to
tholr hearts' chief treasures.
Voters of Nebraska, free silver Re

the warning that you mutt not voU fur

results depend on our victory then.
Make it sweeping, and the railroad
power in this state will be broken, the
old parties will pass into innocuous
desuetude, and an Inspiration will be
given to our national movement which
will enable us to overcome apathy, dis
couragement and ignorance, the only
real obstacles in the path of pro

give us not simply a jmt judge, but also
that party enthronement in the counties
which is needed to bring the party's
strength to its greatest Put In the

are on that day fighting one of the de

GO ELSEWHERE FOB SLAVES-
Americans are the last sort of men
who can be reduced to and held in
slavery. England's landlords and
capital-monopolists and usurers hare
held the common people of Great Brit
ain in tbe worst sort of slavery for
centuries. But it is "liberty or death"
with us, and it's liberty anyhow for our
posterity. We are ready to 'strike for
our homes and altar fires,' and it matters
not whether it is George Third, or
Rothschild Fourth who would drag us
in slavish submission to his feet There
is the stuff of manhood in America, and
the pressure of poverty wakes it up to
think and act. Here Is a letter just re
ceived by us which increases our hope
fulness and courage, because of the clr
cumstances of the writer and his un
conquerable will and political sense:
Stbkle City, Neb., Oct. 29, '93.

FISHING FOB GUDGE0NS-
Brad Slaughter, the chairman of the
Republican state committee, has ad'
dressed the following circular to all the
commercial traveling men of the state.
TV. i.ll- il . i .
xie tens inem mat ne at one time was
one of them, and therefore ought to be
capable of giving them advice as to hew
to vote. We knew that Brad had done
a little of nearly everything, but never
knew, before, that he had ever been en
gaged in as honest and respectable a
basinets as that of a commercial
traveler. The "meat on which the
Caesar has grown so fat" was of the
milky order, and has been drawn
through the public teat, state and na
tional. His presumption in lecturing
the commercial men how to vote for
supreme judge, Is only equaled by the
ignorance, or dishonesty, he displays in
stating the position of Judge Holcomb
and his party on the questions at issue.
"Vague ideas of state banks" indeed!
Where does this presumptuous pimp of
the money power learn Mr. Hplcomb's
or his party's view of state banks. He
knows the Independent party is oppos
ed to any money not issued by the
government and oppoees all state banks
and Btate issue of money. His circular
Is an insult to every traveling man in
the state and is so regarded by them.
They say they are neither gudgeons
nor suckers to be caught by such bait
The following is a copy of the circu
lar. Read and ponder its import, and
imagine, if you can the game of the
man that could write it!
Lincoln. Neb.. Oat. 27. 1893

While your success as a commercial
traveler depends largely upon the pros
pvnty oi me larming community in
business way, It Is far from correct to
conclude that the success of the Ponu
list party would add to the prosperity
of either themselves or the state.
From a financial standpoint their
vaiue idea of state banks, state con
troi oi oust no interests, etc., in my
opinion, would result as disastrously to
a a . i

as a class.

And there Is need to impress upon you
that in order to achieve that result'
every populist voter in Nebraska must
go to the polls. We lost the election

We therefore recommend the follow
ing, which we trust will fully be carried
out: Appoint one or more men who
can be dependad upon, In each voting
precinct to make a list of all voters who
will, or are likely to cast a People's
party vote. Instruct them to be at the

We wish every committeeman to

depended on one vote, and he could win
it by getting that vote out. In thig
way only can we win. The adoption of
such a plan will not onlv assure the
