Iowa Democrats
The democratic state convention of
Tnwa was held last Wednesday and
th rfinnranizers captured it By a
vote of 463 to S54 it refused to adopt
n nifmk indorsing the Kansas lu
nlntfnrm and bv a vote of 6281-2 to
1991-2 rejected a minority report
adding to the- plank demanding gov
ernment control of railway charges, a
provision that in case control should
nht nrnvfi effective the national gov
ernment should acquire ownership of
railroads. It will be seen that the
convention stood more than three to
one-against the public ownership of
railroads even after it should De de
monstrated that the government could
not control them. The people's party
of Iowa will undoubtedly taft some
immediate action, for no populist can
support a -party taking such a posi
tion as that The independent nas
long been warning the democrats of
the west of what was going to happen,
but they have supinely laid down
with the thoueht that the name of
Bryan was sufficient without tneir go
ng to the primaries.

NEBRASKA POPULISTS
Mr. Mathew Comment on the Pact, Pres
ent and Fnture of Nebraska
PopnlUm
Editor Independent: The time has
come ' when county committees are
ctttinsr tosether to call nrimarics and
conventions. It is therefore an ap
propriate time tor the populists of Ne
braska to analyze conditions as they
exist, and to come to some conclusion
as to the causes of such conditions. It
would be readily admitted by an un
prejudiced observer that the record of
the two narties while In control of
both state and counties Is in favor, of
the fusion officers be they democrats
or Domilists. as far as the average citi
zen is concerned. The ( taxpayer has
been better served by the officers
elected by the reform parties than by
those of the republican party. There
are exceptions to this-rule, of course.
It is not my purpose iow to arraign
cise their miblic acts, but simply to
call attention to the general fact that
under the reform administrations
both the state and nearly all counties
that had the good fortune to secure
fusion officers, obtained a more eco
nomical, cleaner and as a rule more
rnmnetent nubile service than thev
had received - before. Why then did
the citizen and taxpayer last fall re
vert to and choose that nartv which
had "given them an inferior service In
the past? I venture to sugest some
answers to that question.
The reformer as a rule la a conser
vative fellow; he is exacting and nat
urally very snsnicious. After the
adoption of the Omaha platform one
of the frequent utterances we heard
from its makers and disciples was.
"We are goins to put the government
where it belongs, in the hands of the
people." These men were and are
Utterly onnosed to an office-holding
r lass, opposed to a ring as it Is termed
and they were right, if our form of
government is to be preserved.
At Omaha, in order to protect the
party from creating among Its mem
bers a set of Doliticians and spoilsmen
rather than patriots and statesmen,
it passed or 'adopted certain resolu
tions, one of these was that officials
should not be delegates to conven
tions. At first there was vigorous op-i-obitlon
when an attempt to break
this rule was made, but of late years
our county, district and state conven
tions have been full of office-holders
who practically controlled things. The
argument that broke down the har
riers has been that the office-holder
was better known and better informed
as to political requirements and con
ditions than the average voter and as
a result the average voter ceased to
take much interest in matters !n
which he felt he had lost control, and.
hence, becoming apathetic, many of
those who at one time were most en
thusiastic for the party now actually
are so indifferent that they, stay away
from the primaries and from the pons.
This, observation and report teaches
me, is the condition in many coun
ties. Exnediencv usurped and broke
down principle and now we pay the
price.
Then on the pass question, our omce
hhlders have been most remiss; the
farmer, the tradesman, the taxpayer
sav and annarentlv with some reason,
"These politicians are an aiiKe; a
populist elected to office Is no better
than a republican." many or tnem
takA nassea whenever they can get
.them, and thus the voters lose sight
of other matters.
Then again, court house rings, as
they are termed, that is a certain
riimift who seek to control nominations
in a county, are regarded with a hos
tile spirit of our voters. It does not
seem to matter how good an officer
a man has been, if he is perpetually
seeking a place on the ticket or his
friends are doing so for him, the ef
fect is as a cold shower bath on the
enthusiasm of the rank and file. I
do not refer to the natural. promotions
that come to one of unusual ability
and fidelity to principle and the party,
hut .to those who seek a third term in
some county office or who are contin
ually seeking some place, on th coun
ty ticket. It is as much as saying to
the people: You common fellows are
not fit for this office; we and we alone
can nronerlv fill if But as a matter
o.f fact, and experience proves it. most
of our citizens can nil well and cred
itably any county office in the gift of
the people.
As I said before a false expediency
has become too great a factor in our
primaries and conventions. Wo dare
not nominate A because the. republi
cans will make a hard fight on him,
although he has always been in the
harness working for our ticket and is
fullv canable to discharge the duties;
so we nominate B whom no one can
say for sure where he stands, because
he has no political enemies and be
longs to a popular secret order and is
a nice man generally. The old wheel
horses vho drove over the county in
days gone by and worked to get out
the vote are passed over there
would be a hard fight on them, you
know."
Our renublican managers do better
than this: they reward the man who
has stood bv their colors, who has
stood on the street corners and reviled
the silver men and the popocrats;
thus enthusiasm is kept up among
them and they all turn out and vote.
Success must -begin at the primar
ies; they are about to be held. You
con do much, Mr. Editor, to create a
sentiment that will reanimate our
sleeping legions.

Yellowstone National Park
"The Yellowstone Park is some
thing absolutely unique in this world,
as far as I know. -Nowhere else in
any civilized country is there to bo
found such a tract of veritable won
derland, made accessible to all visi
tors, where at the same time not only
the scenery of the wilderness, but t:ie
wild creatures of the park, are scrup
ulously preserved." President Roose
velt This delightful spot is more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than by
any other line. The stage ride from
Monida, by the splendid Concord
Coaches of the Monida & Yellowstouu
Stage Co., is through scenery hardly
inferior to the park itself.
The popular route to Yellowston
Park is n&w via the Union Pacif.c.
Very low rates during June, July ar.d
