ABSTRACT OF VOTES.
The following is the Official Vote of Ouster County , Nebraska , Cast at the
General Election , held Tuesday , November 5 , , 1901 :
week iiiH'ond ' of taking its medicine
IjT.xoofully , hhoweJ Hlrong Hymtoms
of HoreneHB that would have boon a
dingraoo to a school boy in knee
pants. It did little ole-o than chow
the rng. AH the Beacon has ox'iHt-
so long upon llm fat that it derived
trom the patronage of the county it
evidently Haw in the result of the
election that the day of populism
has forever vanished as a ruling
power in Ouster county and with its
demise HOCH but little comfort. But
WJ would HUggoot to the Beacon BH
there is no consolation in looking
on the dark side , that it is bolter to
oheor up. llomombor that you still
have the patromigo of the sheriff's
ollico and that it will bo two more
years before the republicans will
till that plaoo. There is no use of
crying over spilt milk. You have
uiado your bed and if it is too
short to Blrotoh yourself on or tdo
covering too narrow to wrap yourself -
self in , tnako the best of it , and bo
happy , for as long as there is life ,
there is hope.
lint to our subject.
The assertion that the "Itepubh-
cau had several low grade articles
taut week oh several candidates on
the populist tiokot especially Mr.
John Murray , candidate for county
superintendent , " ' wo msont. Not
booatiHO wo care personally for the
assertion , but wish the desire to sot
the Beacon at rights as well as any
of its deluded followers who are
unable to see both sides of a ques
tion , or , who are unable to credit
the opposition with as much honesty
as they claim for themselves.
In the iirst plaoo the article con
tributed by "A Teacher" ou the
candidates for county miporinton.
dent was written by a person bolter
qualified to judge of the two men
than either the Beacon or the lie-
publican , from the fact that ho has
boun nttHooiated with them in school
work. Further than that , he is a
man whoso varauity wo had no right
to question and us ho is and lias
been a prominent populist for years ,
we Hiiroly thought ho hud n right to
speak through the columns of the
Republican in behalf of lUo repub
lican oandidato. If ho stated an
untruth in his article wo did not
k'now it , and had we have known it
wo certainly would h\vo : eliminated
that portion of it from the article.
Wo bohove in fiiiinoss in politics
as well as in any other lines of busi
ness.
ness.Whero
Where the shoo pinches is on the
question of religion which the" tea
cher hinted at in his article. Wo
deplore the fact that the question
should have boon made an issue at
allAnd had dolonuined to have
ignored the question had not wo
boon forced into it , by the Boaoon
starting the controversy. Whether
Mr. Murray wus a Uptholiu or not
wo had no personal knowledge , but
the Beacon's confession on that
point removed the doubt and
brought up the question
as an issuo. Religion is and
should bo a stronger tie than poli
ties , and there is no ohuroh that
moro tenaciously holds to its doc
trine or is moro loyal to its members
than the Catholics. In that they
aro' to be commended. As Mr.
Murray was acknowledged to DO of
that faith by the Beacon , whether
the assertion , was true or notit
could hwo but ono effect nnd that
was to line up to his support every
0110 of that faith. It makes no dif
ference what 'ones political afh'lia-
tions were or had boon , this acquis-
atioii at once * made him , if he was a
Catholic , an active supporter of Mr.
Murray , . We'doubt whether there
were ten exceptions in the county.
The Republican does not 'condera
tiiem for it , but from their point
of viow. commend them for their
loyalty. Their course was a hun
dred times moro commendable than
wore the pops who placed him on
their tiokot , then knifed him because -
cause of his religion. From the
vote wo now see that he could not
have bqon elected had every pop ic
the county voted for him , as the
vote ou supreme judge shows that
the republicans had a majority of
125. But the fact remains that
Murray's defeat Was auglimonted
by the disloyalty of populist
voters , Lewis , instead of receiving
125 majority , ho roooivod 520 ma
jority. It Wus tho'-pops and not the
ropu.bljoans who voted against Mr.
Murray on the question of his re-
ligion. Thoic are scores of pops ,
who are said to have been members
of the A. 1 * A.- , that know nothing
of Murray's religion until they were
told by the Boaoon , the only county
paper they taka. The Beacon's ex.
'
CUHU tor making it an issue is"that
republicans were talking it on tlio
street corners and at .every oroah
road" is not a good ono 'and does
not justify the Buaoon'in its posi
tion. Sornu republicans may have
hlten using it , but were not the
Catholics doing the uamo with their
friends. It should havu remained
with individuals and not been made
a > newspaper contention , nor would
it ) iavo boon by the republican
pap r. ) as they believe in religions
courlos'y. '
The contention of the Republi
can was that our candidate was
bettor qualified and more auoeptablo
to tjib leaohors of the county. On
those two points wo felt we could
win. That being the fact afl wo
believed with the further qualifica
tion of being a republican wo felt
sanguine of his success Our allusion - .
sion to Mr. Murray's religion oame
about in oritunbing the Beacon for
injecting it into'the campaign or in *
ridiculing some one's foolish assoi-
tion that Murray's election was
sure because of the 'fact that , the
pritst was working night and day
for his success. '
As a church member wo fcla.irn
the same right nnve oonoeod to
others. That is to "believe 'what
our conscience dictated and defend
that belief at all times and upon
all Occasions -if the occasion do *
mauds it.
\Yo plead guilty to the abortion
"that the editor of the Republican
profosBos Christianity , " but deny
the statement that "wa parade as
true blue , " if by that the Beacon
menus wo olaim infallibility or hiu-
IcEsuoss. While wo desire to live
blameless io the sight of God and
man we know we come for short of
it. What little prominence we
may have attained in church life
has not been through , any effort ,
upon our part , except in our effort
to live a consistent life. Fortun
ately in this particular , the Beacon
is not to be our judge , nor oan it
bo until it has romoyed the beam
from its own eye.
"When he allowed that article
to appear in the Republican
he did it for the purpose of
injuring Mr. ' Murray's chances
for election , ' and know it to bo
untrue. ' '
To the the firist propo
sition wo plead guilty. If it
had not been in opposition to Mr.
Murray , we surely would not have
given it space in our paper. Wo'
are not running a pop paper and
the Republican is not intentionally
supporting pop . candidates for
ollioe. Our object w'as to defeat
his elootioD as well as every other
pop candidate. We regarded the
article a strong plea for Mr. Lewis ,
the republican candidate , and as we
were convinced Mr. Lewis was the
hotter man for the place wo felt
justifiable inusing every honorable
means at our command to secure
his election. Would the Bo'adon
have done different ?
Did the Beacon confine itself to
honorable nicans when it stated
that Lewis was a non-resident , and
liad 'nevor paid > a- cent ; of taxes in
Cufetor county ? When a man be-
oomoa n candidate for office ho must
expect that if there is anything in
his lifo that reflects upon hh ability
to fill thu position to whioh ho as
pires that it will oorao out. It may
not bo an "ill report" in tha.sense
that it is detrimental to his char
acter , but if it is against the best
interests of the public , it is not only a
privilegOjbut the dulyof a news ,
paper to adyiso the public of 'it.
But in no instance do wo justify a
newspaper iu'manufaolunng a lie
for.effool , or in > using something
that did not tend to disqualify 'for
the particular position to which the
candidate aspires.
Had the Beacon observed the
Golden Rule when it was making
its ungrounded charges against Mr.
Lewis and other candidates in the
past it might then admonish others
to "Do unto others oven as yo
would they .should * do unto you'
with some consistency , but not
now.
