The victory Col. Roosevelt won In the republican state convention In Now York Tuesday would Indicate that a prophet Is not nlwnys wlth- out honor In his own country. The voters of Custer county who do not want Dahlmanlsm to control the Btato of Nebraska will look well to the protection of their own Inter ests by fighting shy of" candidates for office that ftro publicly support ing Dahlman. Among the , few Demo-Pop papers that hnvo not yet declared for Aid- rich for governor In proferanco to Dahlmnn is the official paper of Custor County. Got In the band wagon Mro. Deal whllo there Is room and for once experience the feeling of being In good company. The United States Sonatorshlp In Nebraska resolves Itself Into a cholc between Burkott and Hitchcock. If Burkett receives all of the republi can votes of the state and there " \ should bo a republican legislature ho would bo re-elected. Vice versa It would bo Hitchcock. . Durkott Is a supporter of Taft and Roosevelt. Hitchcock is neither. Bo careful of your ballot. Kearney Hub. The democrat candidates for of fice find themselves In rather an em- harassing position politically. They are politically under obligations to support the party nominees from the leant to the greatest. But there Is the rub. They are afraid to declare - clare themselves for Dahlman , their candidate for governor for fear of losing votes among the antl-Dahlmar crowd. Upon the other hand should they declare themselves against Dahlman they fear that his support- em will not support them. In fact there docs not seem to bo any ex cuse for a democrat candidate In this campaign. / Mussing The Jtccord. The campaign of deception which lias always been a characteristic part of the record of the Omaha \Vorld-IIerald is being carried out in this campaign , notwithstanding that all previous attempts to deceive the voter in former years have not panned out successfully. Its last attempt in the deception line is an adroitly worded editorial in its issu6 of the 21st , In which it quotes fron statements made jjy an opponent of Senator Burkott before the primary stating that the sena tor had voted against free lumber. This assertion made against the Sen ator's record was mot and proven to ho fnho during the primary cam- palcn and the World-Herald knows ; t. It therefore quotes from Unit statement in an endeavor to imwn up the records in such a way that the reader of the paper will be de ceived. In order that the voter may know the facts In the caHo we have exam ined the Congressional Record and present the following facts taken from that document , which as all know Is n correct redord of the pro ceedings of the United States Senate and the vote of its members upon every question which comes up. At several different times Senator Hurkett addressed the senate in be half of a reduction in the lumber schedule and his votes at different times thereon are herewith shown : On Page 3071 of the Congression al Record is found an amendment of fered for a reduction of the tariff upon certain kinds of lumber. That amendment was defeated , but Sen ator Uurkett , with Senator Brown , Senator Cummlngs , Senator Dolllvor and Senator LaFolletto voted for Its passage. On page 3080 another amendment was Introduced having for its object the reduction of the tariff on certain kinds of lumber' and the record chows that Senator Burkott , with Senators Brown , Cummins , Dollivor and LaFollette voted for It. That amendment was also defeated. On page 38G1 the Congressional Record discloses the fact that still another attempt was made to lower the tariff on certain kinds of lumbei this attempt also meeting with de feat , but Senators Burkott , Brown , Cummins , Dolllver and Lafollotto voted for the reduction. On page 38G9 of the Congresslona Record It Is shown that an amend ment was offered PUTTING LUM BER ON THE FR1313 LIST. The record shows that SENATOR BUR- KETT VO13D FOR THAT AMEND MENT. The record also shows that Senators Brown , CummlnH and La- Follotte with other progressives voted - od with Senator Hurkett for this a- mcndment to place lumber on the free list. The a hove Is the record. The record is the best evidence. W1V the World-Herald give the same prominence minonco to a correction of its form er statement'that it did to the ar- tlclo of the 21st inst ? Will it show the facts In the case or continue to deceive it's readers in its efforts to elect its editor to the United States Senate. An Open Letter. Last week wo published an opei letter from Richard L. Metcalfo , the managing editor of Bryan's Commoi er , wherein he gives his support to Chester II. Aldrlch , the ropublicai candidate for governor against .1. C. Dahlman , the candidate for governor on the democrat ticket. The follow Ing letter Is the answer from Chcsto II. Aldrlch. DAVID CITY , Neb. , Sept. 19. Hon. Richard L. Motcalfe , Lincoln , Nob.

The issue before the people a this time admits of but one con struct'on ' nad analysis "Shall the liquor Interests uile ( more properly put r in ) the mighty State of Nc- brnski- , first in Intelligence , and , a- mongft the first in riches , whose corn c .op produces more money aloiu than the gold n.ine of the United tnteb combined ? Our beautiful state has boon blest in all things hat KO together to add to human mppi..esBvc have as many , If not uore happy homes per capita as any state in the Union , wo arc a state hat has said to the world.'Como a- I'ong.

The Slo- comh law wns a good law as far as it we-it ; the nnti- treat law is : i good 1-iw , 'Tovit'ed it would be enforced ; the eight o'clock closing law is a good law , all tl ese laws have been enact-d and havj been of much ben efit , and to a limited degree , amount to a soit pf , safe guard to the homo agaiiut the unfeeling , soulless traf fic ; these have not proven to be suf ficient , and every ono of these laws have heretofore received the opposi tion of the trafllc , the Slocomb law was opposed vigorously and so was the e'ght o'clock closing law , as was the treat law and the Fort Crook law , iu fact the liquor interests , call ed tr ists by many have opposed ev ery l.'w that in the least has a ton- dencj to curtail their "personal lb- erty" to degenerate our boys , ruin our homes and prostitute our girls. Now wo have county option which bus proven a success in sixteen states ; tills is a stop towards a more porfca contrail of the trafhc , This proposed law is not prohibition by any incaiu , but It brings the matter of th > control , right to the homo ; and 1 y the homes of the various counties is determined the question whotl or the county will have "boozo cmpo"iums. " this means a democratic and complete protection to the homo against its worst and deadliest foe. Wo have before us Mr. Dahlman who declares ho will "veto a bill if ono i& Introduced" or to use his lat est words , used in a speech at Waho Sept. 23rd ho said , spoakin of count option "If that county option bill comes before mo I will write in'rcd ink * ncro s tlip face of the bill "No thing doiils" and let It go tit that. " The other candidate , Mr. Aldrlch , snys/'If the legislature passes a county option bill I \\ill siyn It and will use m > ability to have nuch a bill It is no longer a question an to which party Hhn.ll control ! . It ( " Is "wo or dry" pure and simple. 1 feel confident , that few Indeed are the men upon whom appctlto has fastened Its fangs , who will vote for llqtior control ; 1 have boon criticized for the use of llio personal pronoun I' liut under thocirciMiintiinccB I feel hat the uae lf exuuci > > hlo In as much IB I am not an editor , were I such , would URO th < j uditorhil'we" and dc- 'oto till the space in the paper for Homo tiKHinst Iho produror of Hell on Earth , \te the Ll'iuor interests.

I am making 10 appeal for my peisoual advance ment ; this let tor will no doubt work nto my injury ; I would rather go down to defeat , with the people of this county knowing just where I stand , than t/ ) receive the office for a second term by silence upon so great , and In fact , awful question. Men ! we cannot stand back , we must get onto the firing line ; you will find the foe at every turn you make , they will bo out in full force and will work while we sleep if we I'.re not on the look out. Two brief years of office is No thing when compared with the start ling suspcction that "liquor may win i't the poll in Novenjber , I appeal to you to stand fast for the bcauti-l ful thing we so love , home , I heari enough of those canting cowardly sayings , if you come out in strong terms we will defeat you , Now , all I [ have to Buy U , fuinish me the ; words that STC stronger and I will , use them over my own signature , if you think for one minute that 1 fear > ou Fins and Pall Back ; I know what I am talking about and what' ' I am writing about , I am striving to write as a man not a candidate for office , there are many , who use liqu or , but in the majority of such cases when the person permits right rea son to direct the machinery of the i head , will say liquor must bo "con trolled and that county option is the best method of controlling it. If you are not a victim of appetite , if you are not one having a homo that has been devastated by the system , just think of the many whom you ' may aid by casting a vote for Aid- ricli and county option. If Mr. Aldrich was as Dahlman is , nnd Mr. Dahlman as Aldrlch Is , I would then bo for Dahlman and tW home , but as the men now stand , , by their de clared words , there is no good reas on for Mr. Dahlman receiving any support in Custer county , nor In the state of Nebraska. 1 have not dls- ciibsed the financial matters connect cd with the question , crime , and criminals , jails , , pool-houses , etc. , those tilings would require- too much space.
