bolting convention it Is not likely that
any such step will be taken. Owing
to the fact that the Watson and Tib
bies electors are entirely distinct and
separate from the Parker electors and
owing to the further fact that the en
tire ticket nominated will fio under
the designation "people's Independent''
(official party name in Nebraska) and
owing to the fact if he desires a pop
ulist voter may vote the entire ticket,
electors and state officers by . making
a cross in the peopre's independent
party circle at the head of the ballot,
it is not" likely that a bolting ticket
. will be put up. There is the runner
disadvantage apparent upon such pro
posed action because of the fact that
under the laws of Nebraska surh a
ticket must go on the ballot as "mid
load populist" or some such designa
tion. - . -
The result of the convention is not
what The Independent desired; Tmt no
hasty action should be taken at this
time which might jeopardize -the
thancas for polling a large vote for
the Watson and Tibbies elettors
The committee on ' resolutions re
" ported the followiiss platform which
was adopted: ""-"
"To the Nebraska state convention
of the people's party: .
"We your committee on resolutions
and platform make the following re-
port: m : V '' -
"We endorse the national platform
as adopted at Springfield, 111., July 4,
1904, and pledge our allegiance to the
candidates there nominated. -
"We demand the repeal of the pres
ent revenue law, passed by the last
lepublican legislature and; the enact
ment of a law that will place the bur
- den of taxation where it belongs so
that corporations as well as individ
uals and rich as well as poor shall
each pay taxes according to the -prop-:
erty owned and we pledge our candi
dates to work for such a law.
'"We arraign therepublican parly of
this state for its extravagance and the
increase of public expenditures since
it came into power and point to the
fact that the republican administra
tion has greatly , increased the burden
of taxation as shown by the official
figures as follows: Tne last fusion
legislature appropriated $2,335,843.40
and the last republican legislature ap-,
propriated .$3,740,280.70. The late fu
sion administration redtrced the state
' debt $567,093.10 ia lour years while in
three years of republican administra
' tipn, the state debt has been increased
$535,729.49. .
"We hereby pledge our candidates to
a; policy of strict, economy in public
expenditure. ' '
'"We demand that the next legisla
ture shall enact rf, law which shall ef
fectually give to all persons, associa-"
tions and corporations, equal shipping
and elevator site privileges on all rail
roads in this state. . -
'."We demand that steps shall be
, taken io revive the operation of that
maximum freight law by suitable pro
ceedings in court if that can be done
or in lieu thereof that legislation shall
be enacted to regulate and reduce the
v prevailing high freight rates."

The populist congressional conven
tion for, the Fourth district convened
at Seward at 2 o'clock Aug. 9.
The cqnvention was called to order
by George L. Burr, chairman of the
congressional committee. The secre
taiy being absent, Eric Johnson was
elected to. fill the vacancy, and the
temporary organization was made per
manent. The counties of Gage, Jeffer
son and Thayer were. not represented
A committee of three from the dem
ocratic corivention appeared and asked
for a conference witji a like commit
tee from the populists., , ;.
The chair appointed the following
committee on conference: McCrucken
Of Butler, Carey of Seward and Soren-
son of Hamilton.
This committee after the conference
submitted the following report:
we, your committee on conference,
respectfully report that we have met
a, like committee from the other con
vention and have unanimously agreed
"First, That the democrats and
people's independent party -unite upon
a candidate for congress in this dis
-"Second, That, in view of the fact
that the people's independent party
has been accorded the privilege for the
past ten years of naming he candi
date, we recommend that this year the
democrats be accorded t,hat privilege,
if they have an accepiaole candidate."
Upon the question of the adoption ,of
the report' of the committee all the
counties represented voted aye except
Saunders ccunty.
A committee from the .democrats re
ported that they had unanimously
nominated Charles Gilbeit of York as
a candidate 1 for ' congress. :
Before a vote was ; taken upon in
dorsing the nomination of Mr. Gilbert
a ''committee was sent to bring the
nominee of the democratic convention
before the convention, to give him an
opportunity to state his pos'ition upon
the political questions of the day.
Mr. Gilbert in his address declared
he was a populist in sentiment and fir
loyal Bryan democrat. .
A motion was made and carried that
the. chairman of the convention cast
the vote of the convention for Mr. Gil
bert as the nominee for 'congress.
The chair then announced that Mr.
Gilbert was the unanimous choice of
the convention for candidate for con
gress, with the exception of twenty
votes in the negative from Saunders
county.
After selecting the cor.grcsi-onal
committeemen and empowering said
committee to rill the vacancy, should
one occur, the convention adjourned
sine die. State Journal.
looks like a good picture for popu
lists. . . v
Prominent democrats from Illinois
and other sections are already split
ting the, democratic party with axes,
indicating that all progressive popu
lists need is to flood the country with
literature to become a factor'' in poli
tics easily regaining the standard of
Jeffersonian principles and disrupt the
machine made politics, manufactured,
manipulated, stamped vanl delivered
by the .money interests of Wall street,
thereby becoming a potent factor to
offset ring rule.
We advise alK the old populist3 of
Nebraska" to stand firm at their state
convention and follow the principles
of Lincoln and Jefferson, stand lor
clean government, opportunity for
the individual and equal rights before
the law for all "as demonstrated at
Springfield. The mission to spread
new ideas through the length and
breadth of the land is now left to The
Independent. It is to be hoped that
all populists will put their shoulders
to the wheel and push it to the front
eclipsing all other attempts hereto
fore made . and the work will surely be
crowned with success.
The city committee met last . Sat
urday, filled out a ward organuation
and hired a hall, corner of Franklin
avenue and Eleventh street. Meetings,
Tuesday nights;ach week. Visitors in
vited and we are going to have a hot
campaign as .we are located right in
the heart of the laboring men's sec
tion. ' . L. R. TYLER.
