Ashton, Neb., Oct. 1ft, ’W5. Ei> North western: An article in the Times-Independ ent issue of Sept. 27th signed: “One who has been too hard up to pay his taxes," contain nothing but false statements from the first line up to the signature and that is a deception. ltis learned that the wiiter never did pay any taxes and present pros pects are that he never wiLb. His anxiety to he a great pop leader, has placed Lim where it would be not out of place to ask him how bu has subsisted for tho past year. With out humiliating the poor cuss too much, we will refer to the Ashton Relief Committee which, if it would, could answer the question by giving a complete list of bis income for several months. He has rarely beeD caught at work and has nothing in view hut a small township office. Ills statement us far as U relates to last springs village election is en tirely false. Thu populist did not put up a ticket and no party lines were drawn. As the republicans had no ticket, they could not nor uuj, innr me < | ui-ntitrii \ji ji.ijmp; taxea. The whole matter originat ed in the brain of the author, and ia the only hard work he hna done lor a long time.

They are all convert# from democracy to populiHra. The pop* *ay they never had a quarrel in the party until Iteln cam - into it ami wunlit, unv too (lonular iii his own party. Now hits be become very popular with republicans? VVe know of no reason why he should be. There is no light against Hates in our party and there was a tight against Reas oner. Now in view of the fact that Louis Hein has taken the scalps of all the leaders in his party, most of whom are men of popularity and have num erous personal and political friends, how can editor Brown insist that his candidate is popular? In vie* of the fact that Hein is also one of the greatest and most overbearing political boss who had meddled with every township cacus arid also conventions to which he was not a delegate; wherein does bfs popularity lie? Men who are in politics simply to knife others always get knifed themselves. And many knives make short work of them. No party can atlord to vote for a tnau whose every act teods to tear the party asunder, and the pops though not very wise, are not fools. They know the election of Hein a second lime is the deatii kneil of the pop party. We Republicans would gladly turn in and help elect Rein lor me purpose ui ni-Hinn mg me pop parly in our county if we did'nt know loo well that it waa the ulti mate object of that cunning politl tician Louis Hein to carry off the scattered elements of the populist party into the democratic fold on the dual UlaolulioD. Now Louia if you would only briug the pops over to the republican party we might help you to bust the pop party. But wu know your record to well as a Boyd democrat to think yon would help us any. So you may say good by to republican voles this year. One thing 1 forgot to mention iu regard to my pop neighbors ou the west side. They say Jim Zink aud Albert Dickerson and Jim Slole promised the Cook faction two years ago that Hein ahould not be nomi nated for clerk a second term. They admitted that his nomination waa a ■ mistake in part; but they said they ' could'nl afford to thraw him over ! tioard for fear of electing lieasooer who to them was very offunaive. Now Zink and Dickerson have gone clear back no their promise ar.d if they did not actively assist in pack iug the convention for btm, which most people believe they at nil event winked at the packing of the convention by Kcin him self. Bui then you sac Jim Zink aud Albert Dickerson are both populists of democratic antecedents. Hence their sympathy for Hein and apprtal of the pop-democratic | tiekel which he has nominated ( Hence also their opposition to the i gray headed vetrau of their owu party who ouce belonged to the republican rank’ and to all pop uliat of lte|iuhlican antecedents I inn e no time to say anything abon* Hu in s record iu this letter but would like t<> say a fev words next Wei k _ti O f. | Award'd High"!
