Another notable victory for
the people of Nebraska , against
corporate extortion in the matter
of transportation rates was the
decision of the Supreme court
in the express rate case , handed
down in the closing week of
September. The issues involvvd
the constitutionality of the
"Sibley act" of the legislature of
1907 , which provided for. the
reduction of express rates in Ne
braska 25 per cent from the rates
in force in the state on January
1st , 1907.
The opinion of the court , writ
ten by Judge John II. Barnes and
concurred in by all the judges
who sat in the case , sustains the
validity of the Sibley act and up
holds the contentious of the state
in every respect , the decision
giving to the people the relief of
one-quarter of the charges of the
express companies on the rales
in force at the date named on all
shipments within the boundaries
of Nebraska.
By virtue of the alertness , fore
sight and activity in the inter
ests of the people of a republican
state officer Attorney General
Thompson the Sibley act has
been in force under injunction
for a period of about sixteen
months and the knowledge gained
by the officers of the state from
the actual operation of the law
during that time was of great
importance in developing the
facts on which che contentions of
the state were sustained by the
court.
In comparison with ( he incom
petence of the democratic legis
lature of last winter , the lawmaking -
making attempts of which body
have repeatedly been found void
and of no effect when tested by
the courts , the record of the re
publican legislature of 1907 , of
which the Sibley law was a part
stands out in bold and compli
mentary relief. It is well worth
restating that the laws enacted
by that republican legislature of
1907 , including the railway com
mission law , the anti-pass law ,
the express rate law , the com
modity rate law and the 2-cent
fare law , have to this date with
stood all attack in the courts and
are , and for a long time have
been , in force and effect for the
benefit of every resident of Ne
braska. It may also be well to
keep in mind that this consti
tutional , progressive legislation
was enacted by republicans , its
constitutionality and equity suc
cessfully defended by republican
state officials and its final vindi
cation had at the hands ot a
court ot able , conscientious and
fearless judges elevated to the
supreme bench through the con
fidence and npproval ot the re
publican party.
The only real test recognixcd
by intelligent mankind is the
test of experience , the test of
established fact. When \vc re
view the record of an individual
we assumu to judge him accuiat-
cly by that record.VliLn the
acts of a public officer an : before
us we predict hia future- course
by the history of his past. On
this supreme tent the republican
party submits to the intelligent
electors of Nebraska the icpubli-
can candidates for Judges of the
Supreme Court of the state ,
Judges Barnes , Fawcelt and
Setlgwick.
Each of theae republican
candidates has made a record for
ability , intcgrit3 , individual
character and splendid citizen
ship both within and outside of
their judicial careers , that is a
matter of pride to their fellow
cili/.ens asuill as their parly
associates.
Judge John B. Barnes has for
nearly six } Tcars past served the
people of Nebraska faithfully
and efficiently as a judge of the
Supreme court to whih he is a
candidate for re-lclection ; Judge
Jacob Fawcett has rendered a
year's faithful and conscientious
service on the supreme bench
following an eight-year service
on the district bench of Douglas
couuiy ; Judge S. H Sedgwick
has in the past served a full term
of six years on the supreme bench
with honor and fidelity. These
eminent citizens have left an
open record of their service
rendered the state to the judg
ment of their fellow men. That
record is the real test of their
fitness. The record discloses in
each case high and meritorious
service rendered to the people
without fear or favor. On that
record each of the republican
candidates may ask and expect
the confidence and support of the
people of Nebraska.
What Leading Nebraska Newspapers
Are Saying.
President Taft emphasizes the
fact that insurgency becomes
democracy when it votes against
the cardinal principles of a party-
lie says individuals have the
right to demand for their con-
stitutency the full measure of
what belongs to them , but that
when the issues arc made up and
agreed to , solidarity ot party de
mands fealty to its principles ,
and in this the president is right
and the great majority of the
party will sustain him in the
issue. Blue Springs Sentinel.
President Taft in his address
in Minocsota said that the tariff
bill recently passed was the best
tariff bill ever enacted. It was
not just what he wanted in re
gard to the wool schedule and a
few other changes , but as a
svkole it is a reduction from and
a much better measure than the
Dinglcy bill. We believe that
time will prove that the presi
dent is right. The kicks com
ing from a few newspapers are
entirely uncalled for. As we
have said before , give the bill a
chance to be tried out. If in a
few years it doesn't prove to be
satisfactory , then will be the
proper time to protest. Syracuse
Journal.
The "non-partisan" cry of the
democratic party during the
present campaign will be con
sidered as a joke by the people
who { recall the record made by
that party in the last legislature
when dozens of bills were intro
duced whose only object was to
place democrats next to the pie
counter. Hildreth Telescope.
A horse that has been tried
and proven true should be kept
on the farm , the same logic ap
plies to the republican candidates
nn the state and county ticket.
The ) * have been tried and proven
worthy./ Atkinson Graphic.
Tafl'-i speech at Wiuona ,
Minnesota , and Milwaukee was a
big speech from a big man , lie
says the things he wanted to say
ard didn't know how ; newspapers
and politicians that think the
elforfft of the big majority of the
republican senators and tepre-
seutatives wrong , have the
privelcgc of marching ; under the
free trade Hug if they desire ; but
just because a few men don't
agree doaen't signify that the
big majority are wrong and the
few right. Columbus Tribune.
President Taft baa not gone
far on his western trip without
discussing the new tariff law and
defending it as the best measure
of the kind ever adopted. At
Winona , Minn. , he explained
different schedules at length ,
and supported the position taken
by members of. congress who
voted for tlie bill. lie believes
they acted for the best interests
of the country and the republican
party. While the law is not all
he hoped for , it was the best that
could have been passed at the
time , and will be improved upon
as the results of the work of the
tariff commission receive atten
tion , lie frankly points out one
defecl , being the woolen schedule ,
but says any attempt to change
the Dingley rates would have re
sulted in defeat of the bill.
President Taft's viewpoint com
prehends the interests of all
parts of the country , and hu be
lieves if the exlreme"insurgents"
who arrayed themselves against
the bill in the final vote , had had
their way the business of the
country would have been seriously
injured , with responsibility rest
ing on the republican party
which would have been blamed
and weakened Beatrice Express.
The real essence of democratic
non-partisanship is unconsciously
summed up by the Franklin
County Tribune when it announ
ces that it will be a "non-partisan
newspaper in favor of the demo
cratic party. " Sure thing.
That's what we expected. Minden -

Because it covers
more surface , wears
longer and looks bet

high grade paint on

It adds greatly to

to sell it at a profit
