The Times should let up on the
personal abuse it is heaping upon
J. S. l’edler, and say a good word
for E. H. Kittell once in a while.
Vote for J. S. Pedler for county
attorney. He is a man of ability.
His record as sheriff is a matter of
pride to his constituents. He will
make another such record as county
attorney If elected.
The Times hasn’t said anything
about the twine trust and Little
Billie Thompson for several weeks.
It seems to have forgotten that there
is a fusion state liekut in the field
and ha9 centered all of the fight on
the office of county attorney. There
iB nothing menu enough for them to
say about J. 8. Pedler, the republi
can candidate for that office.
All who wish a continuation ol
the present good times should look
well to their legislative tickets. Be
sure to elect men to represent us
that will uphold the republican prin
ciples and the present administration.
Alviu Clark and Judge Wall repre
sent those principles and will rep
resent this county with credit to
themselves and constituents.
The editors of the Ansley Chron
icle and Citizen have consolidated
their plants and are now publishing
a paper, the Chronicle Citizen, that
is a credit to the publishers and town
as well. Nearly every business in
that thriving little city is represented
in its advertising columns and the
news columns are full lo overflowing.
Messrs. 3ark9 and Wright are to be
congratulated over the evident suc
cess of their new enterprise.
When the Times said two weeks
ago that J. S. Pedler said, in conver
sation with a voter, “if you can not
support me, shut your mouth”, it
told a falsehood and its editor knows
it. What Mr. Pedler did say wast
“if you can’t do me any good, don’t
do me any harm”. There is nothing
wrong about such a statement. Mr.
Pedler has been vety gentlemanly
all through the campaign, and such
charges, from any source whatever,
are without the faintest color of
truth or fairness.
That Judge Kinkaid will be our
next congressman is a foregone con
clusion. And there is every reason
that he should he. He is a lawjcr
of exceptional ability, acknowledged
even by the opposition, as by their
help, when the district was hopelessly
tusiou, he was elected judge several
times. No one denies his ability,
and not one word is or can be said
to bis detriment as a man, lawyer,
judge, jurist, or in any conceivable
way. The only hope for the fusion*
istsin this district is to try and make
succeed a “soldier” racket; a sort of
“general” racket, so to speak. And
what makes that so disgusting is the
tact that it comes from a political
fusion that in times past lias yelled
“bloody shirt” every time the repub
licans put up a soldier candidate, and
never found any good among the
“boys” save only when one of them
occasionally hud a place on their
ticket. Now, we appeal to every
thinking reader if this is not the
case? But then, Judge Kinkaid
will have hundreds of good honest
democrats and populists in the dis
trict that will help elect him in utter
disgust of the “anythingforoffice”
fusion element.—Ainsworth Star
Journal.
The Times says that taxes are r ul\
high in Loup City and Logan town
ships. and this is because of the Loup
City and Logan township irrigation
bonds. Some one should inform the
Times that we have not, as yet, paid
any taxes on the bonds referred to,
except the $!)00 costs and attorneys’
fees to fight them. However, as there
are, by reason of this suit, several
years of past due interest which has
accumulated and for which levy has
now been made, it is quite possible
that we will get a raise in taxes soon
The Democratic leaders ever on
the alert to shriek calamity are rnak
ing a strtnuous effort to place the
responsibility for the hard coal
strike upon the Republican party.
This attempt will utterly fail, for
there is not a fair minded man in
the entire country who does not
know that the movement is far re
moved from politics and that the tug
of war iu the iudustrial world was
inevitable. It is far better that the
matter should be fought out now
when there is prosperity and plenty
in the land.
We wish again to impress upou
the republican voters of this county
the importance of using every effort
possible to secure the election of our
legislative ticket. The prospects are
exceeding bright this fall to elect
Judge Wall to the senate. lie has
the unqualified support of a number
of leading populists iu this county,
as well as a handsome majority re
publican vote of Buffalo county, and
now all that remains is for our boys
to get out to the polls and vote. And
now we especially urge you to do so.
Pull off your coats and help to elect
Judge Wall, it can be done. Noth
ing but the stay-at-home republican
vote will defeat him.
The Republican organ will undoubted
ly publish Dunker’s letter and credit it,
•‘Henry Dunker in Tlmes-lndependent,”
but unless our comment is also published
it will show the editor to be a coward.—
Times-Independent.
Dunker’s letter to the Times was
short and to the point and of course
we published it. The Times’ com
ment on it was long, silly and windy
and we had no room or time to
bother with it. Besides, we do not
care to fill our columns with such rot.
Yet we are to be called a coward.
Well, the word “coward” has helped
Ed. out many a time when he gets
stumped for an argument. Brown
is a brave fellow when be swells up
and uses the word “coward”.
An interesting test of the prosper
ity of the country was shown In the
recent aunual encampment of the
G. A. R. at Washington. The big
gest crowd ever in attendance upon
a Grand Army encampment was pres
ent, It must be remembered that
most of them had to come from dis
tant states, New England, New York,
Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and Michigan furnishing the greater j
number, but Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska,
California, Minnesota and Wisconsin
being well represented. That meant
that the old veterans had to have
money. Of course they had money;
they had it from the result of selling
their crops at good prices, because
protection had made business good
and created a demand; they had it
from their little investments, which
had been safeguarded under wise re
publican laws; some of them had it
as gifts from their boys who are
working in the great industrial sys
tern built up under the protective
tariff and are glad to seud the old
folks on this jaunt to Washington;
they had it because the republican
party, m the face of constant demo
cratic opposition, tiad passed pension
laws that were both just and gener
ous, as a grateful nation wanted
them to be. In the stormy data of
'9;j to'1)5 the veterans did not attend
national encampments unless they
vveie ‘ mighty close to home”. We
art>.all glad so many could attend
this year; and we are all thankful
for the measure of prosperity which
I enables these old fellows, beloved of
the nation, to see some good times
in their old days.
The Ord Quiz say s in one editorial
that we were wide of the truth last
week in our statement as to the M. E.
church conference and the Mickey
affair, but we will say that our in
formation was obtained from a per
sonal conversation with one who was
there at the time. The Quiz iu the
main only objected to the statement
which we made that tho trustees of
the church were all pops and in
structed the pastor to object to the
speech, adding that the local pastor
made the objection on his own
motion. We stand corrected on
this point but it would appear that
our article in the main is true as in
another colunm, and another editor
ial, of the same issue, under the
head of “Johnson and Mickey” the
Quiz continues to say:
"When it was proposed that V. O. Johnson
lie invited to make the address of welcome at
the Methodist Conference. the most honorable
and complimentary position that a maa could
be placed in before that body, no republican
tthought of objecting. Our opinion was asked
as to the advisability of his being accorded
that honor, and wo presume other republicans
were also consulted. S# one objected although
he was a candidate for office on the populist
ticket. Is It any wonder then that republicans
are not a little Incensed at the objection raised
by a few populists against Mr. Mickey being
invited to speak at that conference. Com
pure the two situations, lioth Mickey and
Johnson arc Methodists, both are good citizens
and neither sought the privilege of speaking.
Further than this, comparisons can not be made.
Johnson is strictly u local citizen in whom the
members ef tho Conference hail no concern.
Mickey is a man of state reputation in whom
all are concerned.
Johnson is a valuable member of the local
church. Mickey Is a mnn of like relation to
the church at large, and lias been one of the
chief backers of the Wesleyan University.
When Johnson was plai od on the program
and advertised as the chief speaker for Ord, no
republican objected. When tho president of
the evening Invited Mickey to spi ak a few min
uleson "Christian Education", enough populist
protest was made to keep him from doing so.
We give the pastor credit for having done
this through an error of Judgement, but this
does not relieve the populists from their fault
of offering an insult to so prominent a citizen
as Mickey, nor does it remove tho odium uttdt r
which Ord rests because of this most unfor
tunate affair.
Let it be said for the Conference, however,
that the members greatly deplored the incident
expressed themselves on the affair iu their
resolutions."
