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

It will be well for our republican
render* to keep truck of what Oic
pop* are aayiug about liielr own
party and tfrelr own candidate*.
We <|Uote ibe following remark*
dropped by tbe w«y*i(|e from the
lip* of repre*> ntative populiat*.
(a) “The republican* have bad
their convention and Loin* Hein lia*
ba<l Ida convention, when are w<
Independent* going to have out
convention."
(b) "I’ve a notion to vole tbe
whole republican ticket tin* fall
Juat fl* a rebuke to our fool leader*
for letting Lou Kcin run their
party."
(c) ‘ We've got a bon* in our
party and no miatake and he'el run
the party clear to b——l If w# let
him alone,"
(d) “Lou Hem '* ticket ia what I
call a demo-pop ticket, lie'* got
no um for a populiat unlea* be wa«
tormerly a democrat. There ai'nt
a aingla old time republican of our
party on the ticket."
(e) “Lou Heiu i« the high muck
a muck of our party, lie alia on
hi* throne and di*penaea tbe oltlcea
but be anya “none but democrat*
need apply."
(g) “We've got aorne pretty good
' I__• .. I V 'll
• VI I n |li l/MI I'M! •'»•* * » • vv
blamed if I want em to run our
party and with Lou Kein for their
leader and king, and they are doing
it.”
(b) “Lou Hein thought he waa
terrible smart when he fixed up a
ticket with a Herman for an office,
a Polander for another, an Irishman
for another and a Scotchman for an
other. Just to get ail the foreign
vote yon know."
(I) “Lou Hein seems to think
that the Americans in our party are
competent to fill the office of coro
ner but it takes the foreigners like
himself and Mike to draw the fat
salaries."
(j) We've got to throw Louis Hein
overboard or else the good ship wiii
go to the bottom of the sea. Hut if
the good Lord provides a whale to
bwoIIow him, 1 pity that whales
stomashe. It'll never be able to
hold such u foul dose of democracy
one hour, to say nothing of three
days and nights."
(k) “The republicans are tickled
to death at the way Louts Hein is
busting our party. They say “hit
em again Louis.’’ He'is just knock
ed our bust men clear out and des
troyed their usefulness. Justcouut
em on your.fingers. Theres Snyder,
Bent, Hendrickson, Kitlcll, Nightin
gale Bros., lieapy. Dick Baker,
Kings, Sweetland, Drapers and lots
of others. All our best workers are
silenced by him. I've no use for a
man who hasu knife for all the best
men in his own party and no knife
for the enemy. ’
(l) “Louis Rein had better stay
in the court house and attend to his
duties and not go around the couuty
putting his nose into township poli
tics. lie'll hav » enough to do to
litrnigolf thitt (fill withnnt tifiinr
•J '■w
to elect supervise™ and other town
ship officers."
(ui) “Our Grover Cleveland in
the courthouse had better mind bis
p's uud <|'s, like tbe other Grover;
or bis bead will go of this fall. I'm
tired of this thing of one man own
ing a parly."
(n) “It goes a little bard with us
to have to vote for a man for county
treasurer who stands in with the
bankers to beat the county out of
$0,000. DO."
(°) “They tell me Mike wads an
out and out barguiu with Nick to
give him the couuty deposit and
Nick put IjO.OO into his upciul cam
paign fund, just to elect Mike uud
not any other populist. You see
Miku was good looking and such au
intelligent foreigner, Nick fairly
tinted ou hiui."
(p) “I understand that Uiok Mak
er uud 15 or «0 other gmid men told
Mike I'tilski it was'nl safe to deposit
iu Nicks bauk, Mol lie went ou
depositing all the same I II never
believe but what Mike got a goodly

PIl “Jh*me uf the lawyers aie say

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*

FLOUP!
YVe arc still bundling the wmlil renowned Washburn Crosby
Company flour (which hy the woy,l« ground in Minneapolis,
Minnesota) which has given our customers excellent satis
faction every time. Head what Washburn Crosby Cornpuny
say in regard to it: ‘ There's as much difference In the
flour of some mills, as there Is between an old windmill and
the most modern milling pluut in the world, Hueh are the
famous mills of Washburn Crosby Company, in Minneapo
lis, Minnesota, (J. H. A., having a eapasity of Di,M)0 barrels
daily. Ripiippcd with the very la'est improved machinery
for grinding the celebrated, “No. I Hard" whuatof Minnesota
and Dakota, their well known “.Superlative" and “Oohjl
Medal" brands, are recognized as the standard of high grade
(lours where ever they are used.'
“This flour contains a large percentage of the gluten of
wheat, and a very small proportion of starch, and for this
0
reason bread mude from it, does not become dry and tastless
but retains the sweet flavor of the flour, and will keep moised
for several duys."
“See that the Arm name, Washburn Crosby Conpuny is
on every barrel, or sack of flour you buy, to insure your
having the genuine article."
We also handle the Crete, Neb. flour, which as cvcry-one
knows, Is the best mude in tins state.
