Central City Democrat : Where Mick
ey is lnown they are not very enthuis-
ustic in his support. lie will lose his
own county , township , city and wa rd.
A man whom neighbors refuse to in
dorse is poor material for governor.
Mr. Mickey does not have to foreclose
a mortgage on a well in order to be sure
of .having a hole he can crawl into on
November 5. Un November 4 the vot.
ers will furnish him a deep , roomy and
solitary hole which he can enter and
pull in after him. Alliance Herald.
It is estitaated that one million union
men marched in Labor Day parades.
If this dumber of organized working-
men would vote for il.eir own interests
instead cf allowing themselves to be
tricked by designing politicians they
could formulate the political policies of
the country. Alliance Herald.
Ewing people's Advocate : Patrick
H.-.Barry , who left an arm on the bat
tle ground while fighting for his country
andwho is now the people's candidate
for'congreaB has asked Moses P. Kin-
kaid , for f ourieca years judge of the
district court and twice the defeated
condidate of the moneyed power for
congress , to meet him in joint debate.
Will the dignified judge accept.
Aurora Sun : Thn old soldiers of
Polk county nre drawing the line on
Mickey and will not tupport him for
governor , The only love he has had
for the old soldiers of his home county
has been that 2 per cent racket he nas
been working on them for the past
twenty years. It is a fact freely pre
dicted by those who know Mickey , that
he will not carry his own county.
So far we haven't "heard anything
ii
from Moses , but a wagon load of mail
was unloaded Tuesday of this week at
the .First National Bank of Valentine
Avhich came addressed toM.-P , Kin-
kaid and le-addressed to C. H. Cornell.
We suppose those are the facts and tig-
ures why Kinkaid ought to be elected
and they will bother every postmaster
to death in the district trying to elect
Moses.
Newport Eagle : Gen. Patrick II.
Barry , a hero of Anteitam and Peters
burg who carries as his credentials hon
orable scars of thosegreat battl es , is
sneeriugly referred to as "Grandma" by
the republican press , simply because he
is old.endughto wear 'the "red badges
of courage" . : This is considerably dif
ferent from"the reception accorded to
republican veterans who are candidates
for office and shows the hypocrisy of
the "old soldier" cry. so long and so ef
fectively use 1 by the opposition.
Dr. Nicholson , of Aiusworth. a trav
elling dentist who has th" reputation
of being a populist : uul a i ( 'publican
draws upon his itni < rimiiini upon every
opportunity to tell ilniM * about him that
the Mickey of the republican party will
be elected this fall , but when asked
about Mickey's careor as county treas
urer , drops his head and Bays he doesn't
know anything about that. There are
a few ot ( his clasVof republicans v/ho
are claiming a grelit deal and Some even
predict.ihat Ktrikjiid will have a major1-
ity in the Big Sixth. The people know
belter ; an4 only laugh at these wild men
t
i
We don't blame the republican man
ager for thinking the fusionists are real
me-in when they challenge republican
candidates to debate the issues with f us
ion candidates. Joint debases have
been unfashionable in republican circles
ever since Bryan walloped Connell ,
Thurston and Field. Besides , the aver
age republican is so busy debating with
himself and trying to male his position
of yesterday square with his position to
day that he hasn't any time for debate
with a fusionist. Alliance Herald.
Did you ever see the hand writing on
the wall Moses ? Has the time come
when you are called upon to lead the
people out of the wilderness ? Here's
the wall. Yet a few more days and
Moses of O'Neill will be overthrown.
Well Moses is a nice fellow boys. If
you don't believe it , look at his picture
that people are sticking up for you to
look at. Do you see what a pretty face
he has when he sits for a picture ?
That's no joke , but Moses wants to go
to congress pretty bad and if he can't get
you one way he will another. See !
KlnkaiU has not answered any quest
ions that have been asked him and has
refused to come out in joint debate with
General Barry and discuss the issues.
We haven't forgotten the joint debates
of Green and Norris Brown four years
ago and perhaps Moses is thinking of
them too. If Green was right and Nor
ris Brown was wrong then , why isn't
the republican party still wrong. Kin
kaid won't discuss the matter with Gon.
Barry nor will he come out and tell the
people in open speech what he expects
to do when he goes to congress. He is
following the same plans of Norris
Brovn. in refusing to say what he
would do with the government ' land
leasing bill , "the Fowler Bill" and
whether or not he will favor a revision
of the tariff. You Know D. P. Hend
erson says the republican party is all
right and that their course is right , but
his constituents are clamoring for a re-
vsion ; of the tariff. You know Iowa
republicans are beginning to open their
eyes and are not so mar the manufact
urers and capitalists as is Speaker Hen
derson which may in part account for
differences of oppinion , Now come
Kinkaid and tell us what you'll do about
these things. We want to know and
think we have a right to know. Will
you tell us ?
The None of .Hoses lu the Bull Hushes
I've wandered up and down these plains
For nearly forty years ;
I've made a fortune with my brains
Among my noble peers.
But lately there Jias come to mind
The fact I'm growing old
The wheels of congress I must grind
A seat in congress"hold. .
Now voters hear my llltte
I'll sing it very nice
Tv > each and everyone belong
A diflerent kind of spice.
I'll salt it down to suit your taste
Give each a private spiel
No general declarations waste
To mix mem the deal.

OCTOBER 10 and 11
Stanton Register : Last year the vot
ers tried an experiment of selecting an
unknown man for governor. Do not
make that mistake this year , but cast a
vote for W. H , Thompson.
Ewing People's Advocate : There is
only one way in which to make the
railroads pay a just share of the taxes
of the state of Nebraska , and that is by
electing men to office who will raise the
valuation of the railroads so that the
railroads and private individuals will
pay on the same proportionate share.
W. H. Thompson and the rest of the
nominees of the ticket stand on a plat
form pledged to rai e the valuation of
the railroads of this state from $26,000 ,
000 to $40,000,000. This is an increase
of about 50 per cent. When that con
dition is brought about there will be no
cause for complaint. Both the corpor
ation and individual will be contribut
ing to the support of the state in the
same proportion. Vote for the populist
nominees.
Charles E Littlefield , the Maine Con
gressman , whom President Roosevelt
has designated to draft a law to check
the trusts , in his speech opening the
campaign in JMaine , has given us the
first breath of what he intends to do
with the trusts , or lathes what ha does
not intend to do with them. He says
that they cannot be reached through
the tariff. Then they will not be reach
ed at all. Everybody knows and the
republicans themselves know , in the
words of Secretary Root' "that there
seems to be but one way to deal with
the trusts directly and that involves ad
justrnent of the tariff on the products
of the trusts. " It xvill be remembered
that Mr. Littlefield is the gentleman
who denounced the democrats for not
supporting his anti-trust amendment ,
and who turned diiectly around and

says now , ' 'that if that bill was brought
up now , he would vote against it. The
truth of the whole matter is simply
that the republicans are bluffing the
people into believing that they are op
posed to trusts , while deep down in their
hearts they are courting the trusts for
campaign funds right along. They
will not apply the feasible remedy ,
which Secretary Root and all the liber
al-minded republicans admit is the only
direct remedy. Unless the shelter ot
monopoly is removed the trusts will
continue to become oppressive as the
days go by. The republicans will not
remove that shelter. They will not aim
at the heart of the trouble but prefer to
graze the clothes and say to the people
"My but didn't we give them a close
call. " Ex.
A. M. Morrissey , of Valentine , is the
candidate of the populist and Demo
cratic parties for senator of the 14th
senatorial district. A better man could
not have been chosen for the place. He
has served the people of Cherry Co. for
four years in the capacity of Co. Attor
ney and was tendered a third nomina
tion this fall which he declined. He is
a man who knows the needs of the peo
ple of the district and there is none bet
ter acquainted with the conditions
which will have to met and dealt with
in the coming session of the legislature
and will give his voice and vote more
conscientiously for those measures
which will be for the betterment of his
constituents.

Mr Sullivan was for several years
f county commissioner of this countv.
j lie was a popular man in the count }
because of his houesty and fair deal
ingbeing a friend to everyone and
rendered his decisions without preju
dice or malice. Every one can say a
kind word for Mr. Sullivan and they
will. He is a ranchman of considera
ble means but bis made his money in
cattle , land , and loans some money.
Though now a man of mature years
he is still strong and hearty. His
friends cannot say too much good of
him and if elected to represent Ua in

resent with honor and credit to our
people for having selected a man of
his worth and standing ,
