Editor Independent: The voters of
t!,ls county are more Interested In the
Issues of this cainpnlun than at any
uii.ro 18'ifl. indications are that
our vote will all be polled.
Our people are for Judw Sullivan
because they realize that he Is a plat
lorrri within himself In the Interest of
the whole people and not. a class or
particular Interest Ills record on the
supreme bench Is an Inspiration to
our voters. I believe I am correct
when I say that h will enrrv a larger
vote than the fusion strength In this
county. ,
A large number of republicans with
whom I have talked are dissatisfied
villi the action of the last legislature
and especially the part the railroads
took In the nomination of Judge
Ilames. Some of them will not vote
at all and mnny of them will empha
size their dissatisfaction by eastlnp
their votes for Judge Sullivan. If the
balance, of the stale does ns well by
Judge, Sullivan as Buffalo county, he
will succeed himnelf.

Kdltor Independent: I.aKt year the
r publicans carried this (Daltoia)
county by a majority on state ticket
rsrglng from 7 on governor to 157 on
land commissioner: but 1 think wo
will return Judge Sullivan a majority
of 100 this year losing the county jn
the rest of ticket. This Is because of
some disclosures affecting; Judge
Liarnes' record as a lawyer In this
county, which have no doubt come to
cur notice recently.

..MERE MENTION..
Some Comparisons for tha
Benefit of Chairman Harry
UndMy.
The Lincoln Daily Btar ojiotea the republican state chairman, Harrjr Lindsay,
aa uttering tba following inartistic falsehood:
'The peoplo seem to be satisfied with condition and attribute them to
the republican party. Accordingly they are going to vote for the republican
candidates this fail, for why continue in power a representative of the imo
parties whose administrations of the state alTairs are but seldom referred to,
and then not by the two parties themselves."
Chairman Lindsay is either very reckless in hi statement, or a very careless
reader of populist and democratic paper. For hia benefit The Independent, will
repeat, in big-, plain type that can be read without apecUcIe, what it ban been
saying time and again.
TIIK STATE DEBT
Thin ftateinent includes state bonds and general fund
Ktate warrants outstanding, up to the time whn Treasurer
MeHtrvo paid off the Jant dollar of bonda. Today the debt
is wholly of warrants.
Created by republican extravagance up to the
clone of bunine-H, Nov. 801 SOti $2,385,540.35
Reduced under populist administration up to
the clone of biiHineHKNov. 30, 1000 to . 1,727,4 47.72
Increased under republican administration up to
the clone of biwincsH, May 31, 1903, to 1,097,071.98
PopulixtH in four yearn, reduced the debt (158,002.03
Republican, in 2J yearH, increased the debt... 270,2:'4 20
How do you like that "reference," Mr. Lindsayf Oufrht the people to be sat
inllrd with that condition? Every dollar of that debt is of republican origin and
it grows in spite of a 115 per cent increace in state tales. Do you want to know
why? Itecaiise your party today is more extravagant than ever before -even in
the palmy days of Tom liunton mid Joe Hartley. Let us see what the legislatures
have appropriated the past five sessions:

Ifow does that strike you, Mr. Lindsay? And you too Mr. Taxpayer, who
must foot the bill? The republican session of l'JOl wasn't so very economical

The people have a riht to attribute such conditions to the republican party
