Editor Beacon :
You ask for "ono logical roison "
why I accepted the republican nom
ination for county suporintondant.
Permit mo to give two roabone.
First ; because 1 am a 'republican.
Secondlybecause high above all
othui ambitions is the ono to be of
the most possible Servian to the
American school system.
In support of the first reason I am
ready to aflirm upon oath , that prior -
or to the election of 1000 , 1 voted
a non-partisan ticket and that in
the election of 1000 , my lirHt ohanco
to vote upon a puty question , I
voted the entire republican ticket ,
save for ono township oflieoer.
Why , then holding opposite yiows
did I , in .Inly 1000 pay to J. It
Dean two dolars for your campaign
fund ? Sirnp'y out of respect nnd
in doforenoo to certain fnonds in
your party , J. J. Tooloy and family ,
who had loyully and publicly sup
ported mo and in whoso presence JI
was when scliotod.
As to your inference that I "fail
ed to got the populist nomination' , '
lot mo say thot in no way nor
at any lime did I nook it and that if
my nnino was used in connection
with it , the use without my knowl
edge. J. G. W. LEWIS.
Late Literary News.
Fourteen noted writers were f.ent
by The Cosmopolitan Magazine to
thu Pan American Exposition to
study Ihe most interesting features
with a view to preparing the most
boauliful souvenir of any Exposition
evct made , tromboth a literary and
an artistic standpoint. To "Mr.
Dooloy" was committed the case of
Iho Midway. Judge Robert Grant
from Boslon bird's-
went lo give a -
eye view of the Exposition in his
own most delightful stylo. Alberl
Shaw'nnd Nicholas Murray Butler
studied the value of iho Exposition ,
tnd its educational influence ,
Charles Y. Turner , to whom was
committed the color-soheme of the
Pan-American , explains the meth
ods by which ho has produced such
marvelous results. Arthur Bris
bane , in his own incomparable way ,
takes the Incubator Baby and
Niagara Falls for his subject.
Director General Buchanan contrib
utes a very interesting paper on iht
organizatirm of the Exposition.
Professor Pupin , Col. David Porter
Heap , Ella Wheeler Wilcox , La-
vinia Ilart , Julian llawluorue and
John Brisben Walker are among
others who consider the various
phases of thu Exposition.
Under tbo direction of the editors
of The cosmopolitan , 105 photo-
graps were prepared showing every
variety of architecture aud every
phase of life , not neglecting the
Midway , at the Pun-Amorioan.
These are engraved and printed in a
style never surpassed even in The
Cosmopolitan's high standard of
art.
At Chicago thousands of copies
of the World's Fair number were
sold at ono dollar a oopy after the
edition the platoa having been
worn out began to bo exhausted ,
and a few copies at the price of five
dollars something that has never
happened in the history of any
other periodical'since printing was
invented.
' Pan-Ameri
The Cosmopolitan's -
can souvenir will be an oven liner
number than that of the Chicago
Fair. To these who have visited
the Exposition it trill rooall vividly
in days to oomo every feature they
have soon nnd these who are unable
to go there will secure such a com
prehensive view of itH main attrac
tions as will bo well worthy of prn-
riurvatioii.
It is doubtful if any book , sell ,
ing at forty times the price of the
magazine , will civo uny description
of the Fair which will approach in
interest and artistic value the Sep
tember Cosmopolitan. The Cos
mopolitan nlready has the largest
clientele of intelligent , thoiightutl
readers reached by any periodical ,
daily , weekly or monthly , in the
world , and it aims to outer n quarter
of a million row homos this year.
The edition of the Pan-American
Exposition number is absolutely
limited to 500,000 oopioe.

Dethroning Fusion.
Custpr county is known and ack
nowledge to have been the goat of
populism. It was there that Kom
and Luoien Stobbins raped the god-
wife of politics and brought forth a
thing that was larger and greater at
its birth than it has over boon since ,
nnd now , after a dozen years of ez
isteuce , it is compelled t j rely upon
the old democratic family mule for
milk. For n year of two it could'
feed itself nnd it never lot esoapo
an opportunity to got into the
trough with both feet ; and it has
been known to got into the trough
in Buffalo county and take n bath.
Since itn nhcnlth both body and
mind began to fail it han been
keeping itself out of the hands of
the undertaker by nursing the old
mule and feeding from every slop-
bucket into which U uould climb ,
This is oallort fusion.
Ouster county having boon the
birth place of populism , it is proper
that Ouster county should bo the
national cemetery effusion , and it
ib with profound rejoicing that wo
learn that thu intelligence , the honor ,
the reliablity and the respectability
of the democratic party of Ouster
county met in convention nt Ansloy
last Wednesday , September 11 , nnd
hitched up thu old democratic tmilo
in single harness and to a single
cart and will haul the fusion thing
to the burying ground this fall.
The democrats of Ouster county
have nominated a straight , clean ,
democratic ticket , nud evury man
on the ticket is a man of honor , in
tegrity and responsibility and does
not dodge behind fusion to cover up
his politics. The ticket is compos
ed of such men as Col. Josh Wood ,
their candidate for county treasur
er , Mho is extensively known in
Kearney and Buffalo county as a
man without a character-blemish
and whoso word ia as good as his
bond. The ticket also includes
such other men as W. B. Eaatlnm ,
well riunombcrcd in Kearney as the
genial revenue collector for this
district who'was succeeded by John
Wilson in 1897. Up there in Ous
ter county a man is not afraid to be
a democrat for fear a fusion pop
will call him an assistant republican.
If a man is compelled to carry mor
tar it is of little moment to him
whether ho Carries the mortar for a
whitemnn or a negro ; the fact re
mains that ho is still only an assist
ant , and not the boss. But in the
Auhloy convention there were no
fusionists , no populists and no re
publicans just democrats with none
to demand conditions and terms of
surrender of principle for populist
endorsement.
Wo hail the light oneo more , and
salute the rising sun of democracy.
The Kearney Democrat.
A Uood Word For The Republican
Hoard.
Treasures Schnonnger informed
a Beacon reporter a few days ago
that the levy of seven mills made
by the last populist board had paid
every cent of county indebtedness
aud had paid eyery dollar of the
running expenses of the county
government. If thin shows any
thing at all , it shows tbat the
judgement of the populist county
authorities was correct , that the
tfovon mill levy was sufficient for
that purpose. In other words.
What was the use of making a high
levy when there was no ueu tor the
money ? Beacon.
Good. The Boaoon lends its as
sistance , unintentionally doubtless ,
iu support of the republican county
administration. If the statement is
oorroet as treasurer Sohroriugor is
credited with saying id sufficient to
pay "ovory dollar of indebtedness
and every dollar of the running ex
penses of the county government , "
it is ono of the strongest endorse
ments for our present board that
can bo made ,
Every ono knows that since last
January the ooun'y board has beuti
republican f to2. If the board has
boon able to ooonomizu and kocj >
the oxuensos down and pay all in
debtedness of the county nnd the
running expenses of the county
government this year with a levy of
only sovan mills , loss than half the
amount that has been levied and nx-
ponded by the pup board for ton
years previousit is as strong a plea
tor the continuation of a republican
administration as can be offered.
This places the pops in a worse
position than their first.
They first claimed that owing to
that extravganoo of the republican
board that there was already a
deficit. Taking their statement as
true the Republican proceeded to
prove that if ttaro was a dolioit
that-blame should rest with the
populist board which out the former
levy in two , that had boon levied to
moot the current expenses of tins
yearaftor the fall election when
they found they had boon retired
aud republicans elected iu their
ttoad. Now il it is a fact as the
Boaoon atatea that the aovou mill
levy is Htifllciont to pay the running
nxponsosas well as to pay all the
debits left over from the populist
administrationwho uould ask any
Httot.ger proof of the wisdom px-
ercised by the voters of Ouster
county last fall , when they turned
out the pop board , who for ton years
had boon levying from II to Ib
mills against them , when ns the
Beacon saynit has boon run the pre
sent year by n republican board on
aovcn mill ; ! and no deficit exists.
"If it shows anything ut nil it shows
that the judgement of the populist
county authorities" was incorrect
when they thought they would em
barrass thu ri publican county
board by cutting the levy to half or
what they had been using for
thu last ton years to run the county
government.
This is an eye opener , to us all
nnd proves the necessity of cleaning
up thu whole platter this fall. If
the republican board unn run the ex
penses of thu com t ) on less than
half what U cost a populist board
it would indiuitj that
there has been a leakage somu
whore for the pust UMI 3 ears that
the public should bo infoitut'd about.
The only way to do it is to. elect
the entire republican ticket tint n
thorough investigation ruiv pc made
of each oilne.
With the Beajon , wo would like
to know , " \ hat w.v the u e of mak
ing a high Lv ) ( of 14 to IS mills
for ten years ) wlien there was no ,
( legilemato ) use for the money. "
The Hrae.m Is Hard i'n lu'il.
"As a p > , ii'irtt , cm .Mr John
Lewis give cuelotual reini'ii why
ho accept- 1 the nomiirttioit on the
republican ticket for county uupor-
intondenl of o : r fchoolri ? Now ,
John , don't put your foot lute
your motilli iu ; ui attempt to OK
plain lo the republican VMPIH of
the counts \ihyji.ti did il. You
certainly out prcdnoo tint receipt
you accepted Iroin the treasurer of
the county central committee of
the populist party for money paid
by you to aid in the populist county
campaign a little over a year ago.
Look among your old papers John ,
and too if tlio receipt isn't among
thorn. And , say John , isn't it a fact
that the only reason you did it was
boo.xusu thn populists failed to nom
inate you ? " Beacon
The Beaofn attempts to assume
a question from a false premises and
concludes with an unfounded as
gumption in answer to Iho first in
sinuation "As a populist , " there is
no foundation for its assumption
Mr , Lewis was reared by a repub
lioan mother and her son fortun
ately como by his good judgment
by inheritance. He has never been
a populist , and had never allied
himself with any political party in
particular until last fall when na
tional issues wore at stake. It was
the first presidential campaign since
ho had been old enough to ivoto.
Before ho had voted for men ot his
preference without regard to their
party alh'lliations. llo regarded
character above politics. Ho tolls
us ho voted for men on both tickets.
When the national ispues wore an
isfitio ho as every other intelligent
man should do studied the ques-
lions baforo the people nnd with the
great majority of the American
voters , bin juJgment led htm to uast
his vote for Win. McKinley and
republican principles.
This was at a time when there
was no olliuo in prospect nnd the
only motive that could have actu
ated him was hisconscioncious duty
to himself and his country. It was
a grand and uoblo conclusion and
an ovideiue of good judgment
which the imjority of the voters of
Ouster county will on
dorse. "That receipt , " is a corker ,
sure that will do the work. The
Beacon is mistaken when U pre
sumes that it can induce sensible
voters to forsake Mr. Lewis , a man
who is so ( imminently qualified for
the yosition of county superinten
dent and give their support to ono
wholly unqualifiedhro ugh insinu
ation.
Had the Beacon been inclined to
bo fair and frank why did it not say
that in July , 1900 during the In
stitute , which Mr. Lewis was con
ducting under the fliiporviaioi/ of
Supt. J. J' . Tooloy tliat J. R. Dean
approached l/im / in Mr. Toooloy's
office and solicited a contribution ,
of himin consideration of the faot ' '
that Mr. Tooloy had favored him ,
with the responsible and lucrative
positionof Institute Inatruotorano\ *
on ( he presentation 6f that phase of N
itMr , Lewis did give him two do- ! ( "rf > '
larfl. ' 'r ' * *
Would any person who had boon s
thtiH favored and who was not a
politician have done less , as an
evidence of his appreciation of the
favots ho had reuoivod ftom Supt.
Tooloy ? Would the Beacon editor
done less under similar circum
stances. "I hat receipt'Ms a credit to
Air. Lewis' , noble qualities and
groalful heart , and should , and no
doubtt will make for him hundreds
of votrs in Ouster county.
What the people want in Ouster
county at the bond of their schools
is a man who can rise above party
aud do the right and manly things
aa opportunity presents itsolf. The
oflico ol county superintendent as
well as that of judge is not looke'd
upon as a political office and no ono
who will make a political oflico of
either of them should bo suppoited
in any party.
. ' eridordo-
Supt. Tooloj's strong -
mont two years ago , by those ot all
political parties is an evidence of
the sentiment of Ouster county
voters on that office. Mr. Lewis is
a man of education , a man of high *
moral and Christian character , a
man of good judgment , and ono who
will make an ideal superintendent
of the schools of Ouster county , a
man who will know no politics in
his oilico but treat all alike.
