Official Paper Sherman County The populist* in this part of their promise land are just now bowling what shall we do to be saved, patting it in their own language, “what can we do to get there? “Well there is several things they might do. For instance they might elect mea who wosld praetiee what they prcaeh. If the Republican* got money from the state by “Stealing” it, they should not be governed by the same meth ods or their constituents will think they stole too. You know you tau t always make people believe that the act of oue is stealing while the same tactics practised by another Is all right Then again they might send men to congress that would DOt he a disgrace to tbo whole state. They knew be fore they elected W. L. Greene from this district that he had prostituted every tru'd ever given him, even to the spiritual well-fare of the people plaeed in his keeping when be was ordained as a plenipotentiary of the Almighty. When he was employed to look up the false election returns said to have been made by the repu blicans some five year ago, be drew five hundred dollars and went off and got drunk, and left the ease go to thunder. Then after he was elected district judge he went to Broken Bow to hold court, and got so drunkthat they bad to adjourn court. Their next ael was to nominate and •lect him to congress, can they ex pset to hold the respect of the people when they send such men as Green to Bake laws for them? If they do they will be sadly mistaken. The people will rise up in their might before long and the end of pop foolishness will be at hand The pop papers of the eounty are with one accord trying to make the people neneve mat me iringiey um ierosponsable for tbe strikes and lock out* in tbe ootton mills of tbe New England states, when they all know that the Dingley bill did not change the duty on common ootton goods a penny, but left it just as the Wilson, Qorman act had put it. The fasts are the sonthern Demoerats were in power when the Wilson bill was passed and they placed a high tariff on cotton goods to protect the interists of the ■oath, and ahaap labor in tbe south has compelled the northern operators to lower the wages of their employes or go out of hasiness. Cotton mills are being built all through the south where a# freight has to be paid on raw Material' and negro labor ia employed at very low rates and it is only a matter of a very short time, when the mills of the north will have to mere soatn or <{ult business entirely.

Assur ances were given that there was noth ing criminal cither in taking pos session of the ballots or in changing them for the purpose ef showing e vote that woald justify the legislature in declaring the amendment carried. He says that the ballots were taken to J. H. Rdmisten's ofllee to be fixed and that the chuiman of tbs populist committee carried part of the pukngcs back arid forth between the ofllees and personally supervised the chang es. He explains how, when 100 extra votes were marked for the umeud inent on the ballots in one Ward in Fremont, the crowd got rattled und marked the extra votes in the Wrong ward,when the figures in the poll books were changed. lie saye that l‘,tJrniuU»n ari/f (Ivfirttn W Itlnkt* Wf-n* the managers of the plan to count in the two additional supreme judge# and promises to divulge the entire details of the scheme to the grand jury. A thorough investigation of the story will probably be made, as a grand jury will be in session in this county during February. The author of these disclosures is identified by the populists at the state house as a man named Simon M. Simon, is an old time populist ward worker in the city. He was appoint ed by the populist managers to assist in the work of tire recount last winter. He is a bricklayer by profession, and lays no claim to clerical ability, and the reason for bis appointment was not apparent at the time it was made. Now that Simon has told the story there is no little consternation among the otncials and political workers at the state house and today Jim Dahl man and others have been busily engaged trying to find who was re sponsible for Simon’s appointment. Some ot them admit that they beliava Simon’s story to be true, while other laugh at it. The charge is made by the fnsionists generally that Simon is and always has been of donbtful re liability. Still his appointment to such a position on the recount commit tee when this was known, leaves the fusionist managers in a queer predica ment. They admit it is now an awk ward time to attempt to impeasli Si mon. Chairmau Kdmisten is not in the city, and no statement could be got from bim today. The state house pary will await his return before mak ing any move iu regard to the 8imon story. Mr. Simon says that all those who took an active part in the work of changing the ballots were promised appointments, and that since then all hut himself have been looked after at< routing to the agreement. His story exposing the recount scheme lias been ! published at eonsiderablt length iu a i local paper here, and lias created a decided sensaliot..
