nothing "donioeratle" In these meas

'Hie pretended approval of the

Mid president , but Insisted that Tafl
was n- chip from the same block ami
would , If elected , continue the Hoose

Thoughtful reader , turn back i\
few pages In the history of Nebraska
to the year 1897 when the democrats
wore In power In every department
of the state government , executive ,
legislative and Judicial and all tin
democratic patriots were howling for
corporation reform -and taking rail
road passes and favors with the loft

It remained for a republican legis

Republican Prosperity.
The Union 1'acitlc has made a high
record for earnings In the fiscal year
closed .Juno. 110 by earning Its 10 per
cent dividends and having ? lt,000-
000 and over to spare. These llgures
are exclusive of the equities in af
filiated lines and show an earning on
the common stock of 10 per cent. Al
though the year included seven
months of depression the showing Is
taken as revealing the great financial
strength of the road. Omaha Hoc.
This railway prosperity , under the
rate regulation of a republican con
gress and a re-publican leglslaturo
and governor in Nebraska , was derived -
rived mainly from the prosperous
farmers and small business men of
Nebraska and the west. Do any of
them wish to exchange these condi
tions for democratic experiments and
vague , Indefinite promises of democ
racy incapable of performance and
disastrous to piosperity if carried out
in good foilh.
The Bryan democracy has fared
so badly with its "paramount Issues"
In the past that this year It seems
to have abandoned the selection of n
"laramouut" and concentrated Its
complaint * on republican prosperity ,
tm > full dinner-pall , the orderly ad-
n inistrntion of law and all of progress
ah represented by the "do it" policy
of republicanism as against the
"promiso it" policy of democracy.
Republican policy never made the
siin shine or the ralu fall for thu
farmer , but it has provided , protected
and Insured to tlio farmer a homo
market for his crops and live stock
in prices which have made him in-
I'opendont ' of a poor crop season or a
bankers' panic in Wall street.
The Nebraska farmer Is
in two tilings most particularly the
continuation of republican prosperity
whereby a homo market at gooft
pi Ices is maintained for the products
cf the farm and the regulation of
freight rates by law permitting the
marketing of those products at a
l'rofltabl& margin. The republican
tariff policy has made and protected
the farmer's market , the republican
uillway rate regulation has .given rc
lief front railway extortion. Docs the
farmer wish to change these condi
tions by voting to elect democrats ?

APPEAL TO
CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Alndo by Judge Tnft in Behalf of
the Filipinos.
"A Great Missionary Work That Is
Certain to Promote Christian Civ
ilization. "
The extension of n vitalizing Chris
tianity among the Filipinos as advo
cated by Judge Taft both before his
speech of acceptance of the nomina
tion to the presidency and In that doc
ument Itself has been widely com
mented upon In the pulpits of the
United States. The voice of the cler
gy has given earnest commendation
to the attitude of Judge Taft , who
when governor general of the islands
exerted the utmost Influence for
amelioration of the condition of the in
habitants of the archipelago , and that ,
too , at the cost of great self-sacrifice
on his own part in refusing the scat
on the supreme bench , to which he was
'both ' called and commanded by Presi
dent Hoosevelt.
Never since ho first assumed Uic bur
den of the governorship of the Philip
pines has the welfare of the Filipinos
ceased to be close to the heart of
Judge Taft. In his speech of accept
ance again lie reminded the Americans
that it Is the duty of this country as
a strong , Christian ami enlightened r.n-
tion to give spiritual as well as ma
terial aid to the distant brown breth
ren.
Taft's Appeal to Church.
Hov. Albert Hnrlstonc , pastor of
Roberts Park church , Indianapolis ,
Intl. , hi a recent sermon thus spoke of
Judge Tuff's appeal to the Christian
people of America :
"Mr. Taft used words of wisdom in
referring to this question In his noti
fication speech. His appeal Is not only
to his party , but It Is to the Christian
church of America. It seems to me
that every man whose heart beats
loyally to Jesus Christ must rejoice in
the statement PO truthfully made. Mr.
Taft said : 'Wo have established a
government with effective and honest
executive departments in the Phlllp-
plncH and a clean and fearless adminis
tration of justice ; wo have created
and are maintaining a comprehensive
school system which is educating the
youth of the Islands In English and In
Industrial branches ; we have cm-
structcd great government public
works , roads and harbors ; we have
Induced the private construction of 800
miles of railroad ; we have policed the
islands so that their condition as to
law and order Is better now than it
has ever been In their history. '
"Mr. Taft is bettor fitted to speak
on this question than any other man
In the government to-day by virtue of
his close connection witli the problem ,
his experience and personal observa
tion of the work being done ; hence
what he says will be hooded by the
Christian church with Intense interest.
Influence of Christian Civilization.
"More than ten years before Dewey
sailed into Manila. I'.lshop Tlioburn ,
our missionary bishop for fifty years
In India , predicted that ere long the
missionary would find an open door in
the Philippines , but God alone knew
how the door was to be opened.
"Now we hear Mr. Taft saying : 'We
are engaged in the Philippines in a
great missionary work that does our
nation honor and Is certain to pro
mote In a most effective way the in
fluence of Christian civilization. It is
cowardly to lay down the burden until
oar purpose Is achieved. ' True , nor
tlo we believe that the American people
ple will allow this to bo done. The
sacrifice has been made , the song of
the redeemed people will ere long fill
heaven and earth with gladness. The
selfish are over lonely and Joyless , but
they who bring the sacrifice to the
altar will find the joy of the Ixjrtl arise
within them. "

The "new diplomacy" inaugurated in
the foreign policy of the United States
proclaims truth and frankness as its

dor of Mr. Taft in consulting openly
with his predecessor in the White

victory that so confounded his critics.

1'ARMER WHITES TO BRYAN ,
In Torso Terms Telia Peerlcaa One
Why Ho Won't Contribute.
Iloro la n luttor sent by an Illinois
farmer In response to the Dmuocratlc
appeal for campaign contrlbutloun ;
"IJon. W. J. Uryan , Lincoln , Nob. :
"My Door Sir As a farmer , In my
reply to your request that the farmers
contribute to your campaign fund , I
will say that 1 cannot give you any-
thlujy , a your speech accepting your
nomination shows that , as President ,
you could not accomplish anything.
You say that , if elected , you will only
serve four years , and that promptly
lifter your term begins you will call
Congress in extra session , so that you
ran begin to reform the abuses at onco.
Hut If , as you say , ijotblng can bo done
while Congress , or even the Senate , Is
under Republican control , why convene
an extra session , as nil know the Sen
ate cannot possibly change in less than
four years , If then ?
"I frankly admit your many good
qualities and generous impulses , but it
seems to me that a man who would se
riously propose your dangerous free
silver und government railroad owner
ship schemes , as you have done , has not
that practical business tact required to
make a safe President. You did well
to drop these lunacies from your plat
form , but when , to still public alarm
lest , If elected , you would call them up ,
yon promised in your speech to only
favor as President what was in your
platform , you made a most serious mis
take , which effectually ties your bauds
and disqualifies you for the presidency ,
as scores of Issues and subjects outside
of your platform , and which are vital
to the country's Interests , may press
themselves upon you for action.
"No presidential candidate ever made
such a promise as Hint before. The
fear of these two mistaken hobbles
marred your whole speech. It was
another fatal mistake when , to draw
attention away from these two hobbles ,
you declared there had been great pop
ular growth In your views and policies ,
when , in fact , these two , which were
your only prominent ones , had been left
out of your platform. We have never
had a presidential candidate before who
proposed to bring in such a millennium
of reforms , who had to make so many
quirks in bis speech of accept unco to
conceal and cover up his most import
ant views rather than to justify and
explain them.
"The abuses of which you speak are
.the fruits of the evil Inherent in hu
man nature , which are present in one
form or another under the rule or all
parties , and republican rule no more
created them , as you charge , than it
created your abuse of your party's con
fidence , or the crimes of your party In
robbing a largo clement of our voters
of their ballots In several states , and
which , though claiming that the pee
ple's rule or rights was the issue ,
you were afraid to even mention In
your speech , much less condemn.
"It was a great abuse of your party's
confidence when , with your speech for
free silver before a former convention ,
you deceived it into nominating you
for president with your false claim
that the country would be ruined with
the gold policy of the republican party
.unless you were chosen to destroy It
with your free silver plan. P.ut you
now see It would have wrecked the
country's interests , nud you have even
kicked that lunacy out of your present
platform and , lufereiitlally , made a
solemn promise in your speech to never
call it up again. That abuse was more
dangerous than all the other present
abuses combined ; but you will agree
with me that republican rule did not
create it. That was a bad business ,
but you are just as confident now that
the nostrums In your present platform ,
with you as president to apply them ,
will bring in the political millennium
as you wore when running before , when
your Biieecss would have ruined the
country.
"If you are afraid that Mr. Taft will
be too tardy In publishing his cam
paign subscriptions , or that if the rich
people give bis campaign fund anything
It. will prevent him , If elected as presi
dent , from roformii's the abuses , why
don't you publish the vast gifts of tlia
barons and sliver kings to your cam
paign fund , when a former candidate ;
or why did you take them ? Or per
haps you would have been too good for
such gifts to have corrupted you had
you been elected president.
"It is a pity that every other candi
date Is n rascal but you. If you are to
be elect oil tlio outlook Is not auspicious.
Witli n man for president who is afraid
to put ais chief views or policies In his
platform , and then to draw attention
from the fact by claiming a great
growth for thorn , and running on the
assumption that he Is the only honest
candidate , and for a party which the
people have only intrusted with the
power for a short interval in fifty
years , and which wrecked all interests
witli its blunders , what grounds hnvo
we to hope that the country can pros
per ?
"No , I can't give yon anything on
this outlook'mid 1 don't think any
other farmer ought to help your fund.
"Ax liiJNnt3K.vnMEB. "

Headers of the Now York World are
wondering what has bccomo of its

Mr. Taft doesn't seem quite so anx
ious for a big , strong horse since his
admirers have been assuring him that
ho can win In n walk.
Twelve years of talking on the part
of Mr. Bryan having failed to euro the
public of its' lack of contldonco In hU

WESTERN FAVOR
FOR TAFT
Republican Policy Father of the
Arid Region.
Homo Owners and n High State of
Civilization Go Hand in Hand.
The West has at all times furnished
the strongest backing to President
Hoosevelt and the West turned first
to Judge Tnft as his logical successor.
Taft Is the chosen leader of that party
of initiative and construction which ,
by Us policies , has populated the coun
try , connected our two coasts with
bands ol gti'ol and has opened the dour
of opportunity to every citizen of the
republic. The Republican party from
HH birth lias been n party of home
steads for the people. It has enacted
and enforced the laws , permitting each
adult citizen of the United States to
establish his own home and roof tree
at a mere nominal cost.
Undo Snm iiiul Home Owner * .
When good homesteads begun to grow
si'ipTo and corporations , by double deal-
lug , bad largely usurped the birthright
of the individual , the party of freedom
and justice began to look into the ques
tion of reclaiming the arid West. It
decided to flank the subtle movements
of l.i ud monopolists and to practically
create a "new heaven nud a new earth"
for the builder of homes , upon which
rnsts the cornerstone of the republic.
Uncle Sam owned thn whole arid re
gion practically fifteen hundred miles
square and he owned the water supply
t'o. > . Through the Republican party , be
decided to bring the water to the bind ,
ahtl by this union to make possible a
ireasurclcss bounty for the present and
luture generations. The Republican
party passed the National Irrigation
Act which became n law in June , 1002 ,
authorizing the government to enter
upon this work of reclaiming arid
Ameiica. The semi-arid region extends
over North Dakota , South Dakota ,
Western Nebraska and Western Kansas
In to Oklahoma and the panhandle of
3 exas.
Taft anil ( lie Wont.
Ill this area the homo-build' ' n ; ; policy
oC the Republican party is to perfect
cne of the greatest experiments of
ohi'l'zatlon. Mr. Taft is thoroimbly
familiar with conditions hero nncl loves
the West. Ills prescient vision of the
Sivnt destiny of the republic is preg
nant with Titanic achievement for this
future garden spot of the world. He
knows the sources of the western water
supply. Ilo is the stalwart repres-a-
tathe of the party that is busy vltli
tin' conservation of the natural re
sources of our country , and what section
of our land is to be half so much beuo-
llled by this promising movement as the
arid region ?
Homes und IiiilepemU'iioe.
On the tillage of the soil rests the
prosperity of all other industries. Upon
t'jo ' upbuilding of homes rests the in
dependence of the nation. Irrigation
and conservation , encourages small
holdings and increases the number of
tlioso who call no man master. These
tA-o Republican policies have < i bnuid-
less potency for civilization. On the
desert sands of Egypt they were Instru
mental iii rearing tlio mightiest empire
of iuutent days. In India they : ire to
day revivifying and modernlziii a
wasted land. In America their mission
is but 1'Cglnnlng , yet it gives promise
of untold blessings to man.
of Hlrutrlc Kncrcry.
One of the most valuable assets that
Is to come to the arid region through
the policy of the Republican party , will
be the vast electric energy possible by
harnessing the mountain streams. They
will thus not only give life to the coun
try , but through power generated , will
inject into that life the greatest pos
sible useful activities. In the arid re
gion multiplied millions of horse-power
can be created through the natural
gravity system of water. There arc
hundreds of valleys ranging in length
from a few miles to nearly one
thousand miles whore ample water
can be had for all power pur
poses , as well as for heat and
light. So when the life-giving fluid Is
applied to the parched plains and the
dosorl is transformed into the orchard ,
the water then furnishes the source of
energy for mill , factory , electric plants
for lighting and boating and all possi
ble mechanical devices.
Perhaps at no other point on the
earth's surface are such combinations
possible to such a degree of utility.
Having the climate , the scenery , the
soil , the sunshine , the water , the tim
ber , the minerals of all kinds , the
stone , and in fact all of the products
of the earth , both from Its surface and
from Its bowels so readily at hand ,
here In the western portion of America
is doKtlncd to ho wrought not only the
highest civilization , but the highest
I'olltlrnliilo.s. .
Mr. Taft is not trying to reduce his
weight becaubo ho is afraid of his own
shadow.
Missouri has become the first state
in lead mining , as well as zinc min

When we come to contemplate the
vast field of natural western resource * ,
available for food , for industry nml
for commerce ; vhen ire attempt to
grasp in one act of thought , the
length and breadth and depth of the
riches \vlth which Providence has
loodod this section ; when we try to
realize how every possible want , every
material aspiration of man can b
bountifully provided for ; when we
consider how measureless are the
values which will spring into being un
der the Republican policy of dealing
with the west , nud how these valued
when once created are solid and real ,
can be incorporated Into tlio endur
ing structure of human society , we
may begin to estimate properly the
measure of responsibility which rests
upon this nation and its chosen rulers.
This is not merely to preserve un
harmed the priceless boon of civil lib
erty which leaves the individual citi
zen free to tlo his share in work of
development , but to adopt such meas
ures as will prevent the waste of nat
ural resources , clear the way of
progress and promote the final triumph
of civilization. Tlio record of the Re
publican party Is one of progress.
Alluring VInlcm of Circntucn .
Judge Taft not only knows nnd
loves the west , and favors developing
it to the maximum limit , but be also
knows Japan , China , the Philippines ,
the South Sea Islands and all the
South American republics whose shores
are washed by the expansive Pacific
ocean and whoso products are destined
to augment the commercial supremacy
of our Pacific coast cities and the
trade centers on all the transconti
nental railroads. Ills well-known pol
icies provide for the west as well as
the east , the north and south and far

Looking at the great War Secretary
from this viewpoint , is there any won

TAFT GAINING STRENGTH.
Independent Political Writer Finds
Kepublican Candidate Popular.
Walter Wcllinan , the Washington'
correspondent of the Chicago Rocord-
Herald , thinks Tnft Is gaining strength.
Writing'of his candidacy recently he \
said :
"It Is not denied that for some weeks
after the Chicago convention there was
in the. East , at least , an undertone of
prejudice against Judge Taft. springing
from the belief that ho was si mere
echo of Roosevelt ; that he was "not
Ills own man , " that he could not have
boon nominated but for the Presidents
aid , mid that he is only a staikluj ; horse
for the man at Oyster Bay. Curiously
enough , many men who like Uooseve't ' ,
and would vote for him if he were to
mi again , felt lukewarm toward Taft
bcfnnse of this belief that he was only
the President's shadow. Now this feel
ing is largely wearing away , li never
\\UR entertained by men win kuo-v the
facts , who knew Taft himself , who
'veie familiar with the strength of his
character , his Independence of mint ) .
Pot the men who did cntorMni it are
beginning to perceive that he Is his
own man and a strong ono at that.
The more speeches Taft makes , the
more frankly and plainly lie t.ilk' , iie !
less will there be of this mistaken no-
tl'-n that he is overshadowed by an
other. Taft's frank talk on the lafior
ai d injunction questions and his plain ,
blunt denial of the foolish story that
lie once said ! ? 1 a day was wnpes
enough for a working man , has done
him more good than his more laboicd
and pretentious efforts.
"Judge Taft's friends argue that to
some extent ho has been a misunder
stood man , and they want him to 'take
the stump' to show the country what
bu ically is. They would like to Imve
tl-o musses of the people look upon him
In the same way as he is looked upon
by residents of this city , where ho Is
so well known. Ask any nuin of the
national capital , bo ho Republican or
Democrat , what he thinks of Judge
Taft , and he will tell you that Taft
Is one of the biggest , strongest , tinest
characters we have ever had In public
life. This Is my own opinion , nnd for
twenty years I have known * and watch
ed most of the important mon of Con-
girsf and of the government of both
parties. I am not n hero worshiper ,
nor a partisan. Hut Taft has 'mpresseil
mo , as he impresses every ono who
ically gets to know him , as the finest
tjpe of man this country produces , and
bettor fitted by temperament and train-
! i.g and experience for the difficult
task of the presidency than any man
we have had In that office for many
yuirs. The friends and admiral's of
the Republican candidate believe tlie
country should know the mau as ho
is and as ho is known to be ; and they
think the host way to bring mat about
H for him to travel and speak fiom
one end of the country to the other. "
When Mr. Hrynn goes campaigning
down South some man may be thoughtless -
loss enough to Interrupt him in the
middle of a speech by asking him
how ho stands on the Negro ques
tion.
"How will Mr. Taft explain to the
average man the benefits of protec
tion ? " asks Mr. Hrynn. Uless your
heart , the average man understands it
without any explanation Omaha
