The time has again arrived in the slate of Nebraska, when the worth of a candidate will be considered paramount to their politics, and the parly whe audaciously nominates a man tor an office who has mslicious r ly disregarded the interests of the whole people, and trampled upon their gights, willfully and with pre meditation, will discover in the end that the common people will not en dorse their action at the polls. The populist party to-day are in just that position, and no one knows it belter than they do. Take the case of Sherman county as regards the re countof lH?7. There ia notons of them but what feela sure that Mr. Holcomb, as Governor, Knew just what was being done by that com mittee, and no member of an elec tion board, be he Populist or Re publican, in Sherman county, is blind to the fact that Mr. Holcomb as gov ernor, and the populist majority of that committee, did, willfully and fraudulently place them before the people aa perjurers and falsifiers of the ballot. The committee found that Sherman county had cast about 200 more votes for the constitutional amendment than the different boards of election bad returned, and Mr. Holcomb as Governor sanctioned it. The majority of the boards were populists. Did you gentlemen, fal •i'j > •turns or did the geDtle mer wuom you sleeted as a reform body, with jour reform governor at their bead comit this crime. Did jour canvassing board at the county *eat. which we are informed cooeiet gd of >|eaare K A. Brown, J. fill Jaeger and county c)erk J.. Rein, fraudulently change the returns as sent in front the different polling places nod eo aeud them to Lincoln, or did that reform committee, ooe of whom yon elected from tbie county, witli governor lloleomb e« the chief executive, •» change them to at to show an incree»ad vote of JOo thet tUat hie (Holcombe) brother-in-law anight (lud n place on the supreme bench. There te no men In Slier men count* who Inye thte frand to either our election boards or our can feeing board, but that Governor Holcomb wae ■ ogeuaet of thta uut rage botng perpetrated you all be Iteve. Ami, et e leading populist eeld to ue I sat week "were t* el lowed to pu't i a k the .'urlaia end fie* the ecu of thel committee and governor H<>icomb, we would Ami il damnable Do you went thet mee u Ue supreme beach of our iUte* Is your property or your liberty at stake? Does the party lash corn pell you to vote for legal and moral leppers? No, American citizens, for once throw aside prejudice and com pell the light of day to be thrown upon the political acts of they who ask you for yonr vote, The democratic attempt to picture McKinley and the republican party as tbe promoters of the truata and Bryan and the democracy as their destroyers, says the Cincinnati Times, is false to its root. In tbe McKinley tariff law of 18»0 was In corporated a clause which made trusts a punishable crime. This bill waa created into a law by a vote of 164 to 1 in the house and 40 to 20 in the senate. Every vote in the house but two for this bill was re publican. Every vole in the house againNt this bill was democratic. Every vote for the lull in tbe seriate was republican; every vote against it waa democratic. Not only were the party records on the trust question thus establish ed, but it was added to by the next house and senate, in which the dem ocrats had the complete control. The clause whicbWilliaui McKinley had placed in his famous tariff bill deal ing so harshly with the truata was swept away and a weaker one substituted in ibe Wilson bill. William Jennings Bryan was a member of the ways and mean* com mittee of the house, which adopted the Wilson bill; he not only worked for it, but voted for it. The records of the two men can not be question ed, neither can the wording and pur pose of the two truat clauses in the respective laws They are given be low: McKinley I.aw "Every contract combination in the.1 form of a trust or oth erwisa, or conspiracy' in restraint of trade or commerce, among the several states, or with foreign nations is here by declared to be ille gal." (Any person en gaging In such combi nation was to be deem ed guilty and an con vlction was to be lined not to exceed lfi.000, or to he Imprisoned not more than one year, or both, In the discretion of the court). Wllson-Bryun Law— "Jtvery combination conspiracy, trust a greement or contract is hereby declared to be contrary to the public policy, illegal and void, when the aame is made by or between two or mare corporations, either of whom is en gaged in importing any article from any foreign country in the United States. ' William McKinley and the repub lican party stands on the records. They made trusts or trade combina tions, in tbe United States or be tween importers a punishable offense, prescribing heavy flues, imprison ment orbotb. Bryan, Wilson and the Democratic party not only repealed this law, but substituted for it one that only made them illegal between importers, and with no penalties at tached. Tbe hue and tbe cry will deceive no one. When the Bartley and Moore cases were before the people, every re publican paper in the state endeavor ed to show them op, and asked that a speady trial be given them and that justice be meeted aut according to their crimes. Can you find a pop paper in the state that even dare hint that Holcouib took mouey that did not belong to him, or tried to steal the birth right of every citizen of the stale, when he endeavored to change the constitution. Stand up ye pop editors and give your read ers the information which you are acclaimed with or ackuuwledga yourselves in the business fur spoils only.
