J dgc 'Parker in appealing to the labor vote evidently thinks the Amcrican workmen have forgotten what happencd in 181)3. H01lidavnd Sullivan locked horns at ( he pop convention and Holliday recited some recent history - tory that the Judge did not ex- pec.t to hear. The pops washed out a lot of , dirty linen at their representative - tive convention last week. It took until nearly 1 o'clock in the .morning to complete the job. Judge Sullivan got into the wrong crew in the pop reprcsen- tative convcntion whcn he roasted - ed Clem Deaver and his follow- ers. Tom Holliday , Jim Stock- , ham and John Painter were there. _ . - - - The New York Herald dcclares that "New York democrats must makc up. " It would be in order for thc Herald to advise its man . Parker to shut up as he hurts his cnuse every time he opens his mouth. ! Tom Watson declares that the , democrats and republicans hold the same principles , the only difference - ference being tbat the republicans - cans are honest about it , while tbe democratic professions are based on party expediency. Marshall Eddy lost his chances for the emlorement ! ? of the pop I convention when he said "that' ' she 1c1 he have the casting , 'ote that would determine the next U. S. senator from Nebraska , he would cast that vote for 'V. J. Bryan. Tom Holliday , the pop candidate - date for representative , was the 'Pli.d-road candidate for congress two ; years ago against the fusion nomlUee , Judge Neville , of North Platte. ' The Judge's friends will nO.doubt take this opportunity to get even. The result of the election this iall in Custer county depands . very much on the voters getting t.o the polls. All people are very busy with tbeir work. Every body feels the election of Roose. velt is an assured fact and some will argue with themselves that their vote will not be needed. There is where the danger lies. No one who hopes for the success of republican principles should think of staying home elcction day. Not only is it necessary thai Roosevelt be retained as pres i- < 1ent , but it is necessary that he shall hnve a congress back oj him to sustain him. It is ver } important tbat Nebraska elec1 republicat1s to congress and re. , publicans to the state legislature , The members of the state legisla' ture will elect a United State ! Senator at its next session. Th ( usionists will doeverything with , in tb ir power to control the legis , lature in order to elect Bryan 1 < . .the Senate. A vote for a pOl r presentative or stat senatol will be a vote for Bryan or Allen "In either case it would be a VOt4 'i gail1st maintaining Roose'elt , No voter can afford to allow per sonal grieviences to come be. tween him and his duty to him self and his country. "A Lead Pipe Cinch" is th caption heading a double column double leaded article in the ilea con last weeie , which closes wit' ' the statement that "farmers wi : catch it coming and going. " "They will be compelled to pa their own share of the extrav. gent appropriations of 11)03 an , they will be compelled to pay large portion that ought byrigl : and justice fall upon railroatls. " The Beacon lilee l achel of 01 old will not be comforted becam its child is not. It had made its mind before the state boaI co = r # # .r.r..cf. ) : F. W. HAYES , Jeweler and O tician . I West Side Square , k Broken Bow , I Nebraska. , I . - . - r of equali1.ation that the board would not 111crease the valuatIOn of railroad property and upon thc railroads it" would malec its cam- paign. Having' lost out on its presumption lhe Beacon sccms to have no other stocle in tmlle and presumes on thc ignorance of its readers by attcmpting to lead them to believe the railroads arc not required to pa ) ' their share of the taxes and as a consequence the farmers will have to pay their share of the taxes. As th'e assesscd valuation of railroad propcrty has been raised 70 per cent and all other property is only raised 25 per cent in Custer county it comes with poor grace for thc Beacon to claim that the farmers will have to pay "what in right and justice ought to fall upon the railroads. " 'l'he RH- PUBLICAN has always maintained that every individual as well as every corporation should pay I their just proportion of the tax. I It was upon that theory thal the , ncw revenue law was based. Railroads as samc as individuals should be compelled to pay thcir proportionate share of the tax. We beleive the state board did its full duh' . . We beleive that when the. board increased the valuation of railroads 70 per cent higher than they were , 'alued by the populist board of equalhmtion that it made the valuation fully as high as indivi ual propert. } ' of the state. If they did that the Beacon can not in justice to fair play ask more. And when the railroads pay their just proportion - tion the farmer nor any other class of property will be compell. ed to pay any part of the tax due from railroads.

I can not see in the national party anything on earth except an effort to find which is the best bait to put on the hook. -Thomas E. Watson , populist candidate for President. Itelcr lUortrllsclI. Peter Mortensen , present state treasurer and a candidate for reelection - election upon the Hepublican ticket , was born in Denmark , October - tober 8th , 1844 , emigrating to America 111 1870 settling in Valley county , Nebraska , and assisting in the orgal1ization of that county three years latter. In 1875 , Mr. Mortensen was elected - ed county treasurer which ofltce he held for nine years or until 1884 , at which time he purchased an interest in the Ord City Bank , being elected president of that institution in 1888 , it meanwhile having been re.organized under I tbe name of the First National Bank. Mr. Mortensen entered state politics in 1898 when he was . nominated for state treasurer by the Republican convention , but , lilee his fellow candidates upon . tbe ticket , failed of election. . He was ag'ain nominated in 1902 . and elected b ) ' a plurality of more than 16,0.00. Immediately upon assuming the responsibilities of his oflice , - Mr. Mortensen began to plan fOI the well fare of thc state ; he dill not stop at merely planning , he execu ted those plans. 'l'he banles which had borrowed state money at a low rate of interest . im'esting that samc mOllc ) ' it - state warrants at a higher ratl . of interest , were informed thai - unle\s \ they ceased manipulatin ! the state fund in that way th. mone ) ' which the treasurer hat e deposited with them would hI , withdrawn at once. 'l'he tcm porar ) ' school fund which in for mer years had lain idle the great er part of the year was in\'estel in state warrai1ts , the same be ing carried in the funds as cas ! items. ' .L'he result of this simpl , expedient was to sato the stat , the interest which before hai gone i ltO the pockets of the bro kers of Lincoln and elsewhere. Mr. Mortensen has planned 5 wisely that he has kept all of th state funds at work at aU time ! and still never has gone' too fa _ in that direction , or found hill self out of funds when the sam - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - R NeKltJ CoHla Every part of the mucons nWII 8 brane , the nose , throat , car : head and lungs , etc. , are snbjee 8 ed to disease and blight frol S ncglected colds. llatlard's lIon S1 hound Syrup is a pleasant al' ' H effective remedy. 25c , 50c , Sl.01 8 W.

No other man ever rose fr m police commissioner to President of the United States in less than . five years. No other so vigorOltsly and so successfully turned stl1mbling-bloc1 < s into stepping-stones. Theodore l oosevelt entered politi s as a reformer as soo'n as he had left college , and made a reputation at the very start for public spirit , honesty , combativeness and unshakeable - shakeable physical and moral courage. He ma e enemies t every step , and every enemy made him ten friends. 'l'be boy assemblyman forced a hostile Legislature to condemn its own pOli tical allies. The young- civil service commissioner boldly challenged the national leaders of Ius party and compelled them to observe the law. 'l'he police commissioner trampled ruthlessly - ly over all the prejudices of a cosmopolitan community , whether - , er they represented the vicious instincts of a criminal fraction or the innocent desires of the liberty loving' majority.
