" Mr. Smyth moved that the plat form as read be adopted and the motion carried. Judge W. G. Hastings asked to have the plat form plank relating to the free pass read again. The plank was read. Judge Hastings offered a motion relating to the free pass question , making it unlawful for any person , excepting objects of charity and employees of railroads to accept a pass. He was asked to reduce this to writing. While this was being done , other resolutions were ofl'ered and adopted relating to W. J. Bryan's primary pledge plan , denouncing the acceptance of the Rockefeller gift by regents of the university , and expressing regret at the illness of Judge Holcomb. The last was drafted by Edgar Howard. This resolution was a- dopted unanimously by a rising vote. vote.A A telegram was read from Jas. C. Dahlman , saying that he was side-tracked and unable to reach the convention ; that the democratic party has been in the same con dition , but that it will get the right of way in 1908 in carrying Bryan to the white house. Addition to Pass Plank. Judge Hasting's resolution was offered as follows , and was made an addition to the pass plank in ; he platform : "This convention emphatically condemns the issurance of free transportation for any purpose other than in genuine cases of charity or to bonafide employees actually under pay of the issuing corporation , and demands the a- doption by the Nebraska legisla- ; ure of a law making the interna tional acceptance or issuance of such free transportation a criminal offense as a violation of the prin ciples of justice by a common car rier. " The additional resolutions adopt- read as follows : "With sincere regret we have received intelligence of the im paired health of Hon. Silas A. rlolcomb , chief justice of Nebraska a condition which renders impera tive his retirement to private life. 3y the voice of the democracy of our state Judge Holcomb was twice called to the high position of gov ernor , his record in that office re- lecting credit upon himself and lis political following. His six years of service upon the supreme ) ench have been marked by a rugged honesty and profound erudition , winning for his judicial decrees the approval of the people of his state. We tender to Judge rlolcomb our earnest sympathy with the hope that he may be speedily restored to health. "We heartily approveof the primary pledge plan as suggested by W. Bryan and urge every demo crat in Nebraska to formally make the promise to attend all primaries of the party between now and the next democratic convention , unless unavoidably prevented and to use lis influence to secure a clear , lonest and straightforward decla ration of the party's position on every question upon which the voters of the party may desire to speak. "We denounce the acceptance of the Rockefeller gift by the regents of the university , and demand the withdrawal and the return to Mr. Rockefeller of any money that nay have been received from him/ ' Hastings for Supreme Judge. Judge Hastings was placed be fore the convention as a candidate ; or supreme judge and on motion of P. L. Hall of Lancaster he was nominated by acclamation. Judge Hastings was called to the platform. He declined to get up on the stage , saying that he is tali to be seen from the floor. One delegate yelled : "Got up or the platform ; we want to see ho\\ big yeu are. " The Judge said that he has at tended many gatherings of democ racy , and that he is under obliga tions to many present and to many who have gone to their reward. He said he knows something of the work to be done in the office to which he has been nominated , be cause in the past he has been a su preme court commissioner , and has served eight years on the dis trict bench. He appreciates the import and difficulties of the po sition. He believed that demo crats should feel encouraged now. When the republicans of Nebraska reach and stand in the position held by the democrats an 1 popu lists in Nebraska fifteen years ago it would seem that the future of Nebraska is safe. Since the re publican state convention the dem ocrats should feel greatly encour aged and should concern them selves with seeing that the republi cans keep their promises. lie de clared for reasonable regulation against the railroads or public ow nership. If elected to the supreme judgeship he will have little to do with issues spoken of in the plat form , but he would like to inter pret some of the laws the republi cans have threatened to pass. For this office of supreme judge Ne braska does not require nor desire a partisan. All should be equal before the law. Free passes vio late the rule of equality. Has Used a Pass. Judj e Hastings admitted to hav ing used passes in the past , and strangely enough when that ad mission was made a ripple of ap plause swept over the audience. He said he has none now , and that no application of his is outstand ing asking for railroad favors. If he were now in practice the judge said he would not hesitate to accept a retainer from a railroad company or corporation in a legiti mate case. Thanking the convention for the honor bestowed , and promising if elected to interpret the laws of Nei ! i braska as best he could Judge Hastings closed his speech of ac ceptance , j He was warmly applauded in closing. Scarcely had he finished i untils calls were made for Mr. Bryan , and that gentleman re- , sponded and was introduced by. . Chairman Shallenberger. Word of Encouragement. Mr. Bryan said he is glad to ! submit a last word before leaving for his trip around the world to . prepare himself for larger service ' and greater duties. He said he ! should be satisfied if this trip en- - ables him to do better service for the cause to which he has devoted his life. The time for going , he i thought , is opportune. He can j be spared better now than at any . time in the past fifteen years. It j will take a year for the president and senate to get together. The democratic party has had trouble ; but its trouble now is over. The republican party is now entering i its era of trouble. Democracy is , in better shape and stands abettor show of winning than it did last i year. One year ago the democracy ; of the state met in Lincoln. It was j not satified with the St. Louis coni i vention. It was felt that a retro grade step had been taken. De mocracy learned by experience that to win it must be democratic ' and that democratic position must not be abandoned. The party was rebuked for making concessions as it has not been since 1872. It was a democratic rebuke , not a re publican victory. He showed by figures where the democratic loss in votes had been enormous while the republican gain was not what the natural increase in the voting population should have given it. There has been a decided growth in democratic strength since last November. There has been more expression of hope , expectation and determination. Speaking of the St. Louis convention he said : ! " \Ve listened to those who prom ised to win if we would consent to cease offend. " Democrats are moro united nmv and ropublicans are more disorganized. Republi cans today are entering the same contest with organized wealth 1 which democracy has gone through. i ' Preach Democratic Doctrine. , Mr. Bryan said , and to empha- , size it repeated that no republican ! is gaining popularity un'ess by the advocacy of democratic doctrine. . He said La Follette is the leading 1 reformer in the republican party ; today , and that he has made his I fame by advocating democratic doctrines. He has fought for the i primary law and the primary sys- . tern was a democratic institution in the south before it was heard of in the north. He has advocated i regulation of the railroads , and this democracy has advocated for years. Democracy has insisted for years that man cannot create a creature greater than its creator. The popularity of Cummins of Io wa is due to the fact that he has the courage to depart from beaten republican paths. He has taken up the democratic position on the tariff , and declares that the tariff shall not be used as a shelter for the trusts. By following democratic pre cedent and adopting democratic doctrine President Roosevelt is popular today. In the great coal strike he adopted the democratic idea of arbitration. This was de clared for in the platforms of 1896 and 1900. His party would not follow his democratic suggestion that a permanent board of arbi tration be formed. lie said a democratic president and congress would have made a permanent board of arbitration that would have for all time ended strikes and labor troubles. The president had aruged for a law increasing the scope of the in terstate commerce commission , as recommended by the democratic platform , but he did not have pow er enough to get this law through the senate and the railroads now believe they have effectuclly block ed legislation for some time to come. The National City bank of New York has informed its cor respondents in the financial world that no railroad legislation need be feared at the coming session. Re ferring to the president's fight for railroad regulation , Mr. Bryan said : "I want democracy to stand back of Mr. Roosevelt In this mat- tor any man who arrays himself on the side of the railroads should be retired. " He averred that democracy is making progress in Nebraska. lie hoped it is not too much to believe that Nebraska's republicans are making sonic progress , although it seemed to him that the republican platform committee was a little too evenly divided. lie was glad to note that the minority on the com mittee , however , was equal to the majority and brought in a plank the convention seemed to want. Every pass is not a bribe , but the railroad has no right to single out the parties for favors. It is unjust and the speaker feared we have too many men , who with passes in their pockets , forget the rights of the people. The crusade against the pass is a righteous one. He regarded a pass used for conven tion purposes as demoralizing as when used anywhere else. Republican Reformers. "I want to say to you that if President Roosevelt has done nothing else he has revealed to the American people that there is a re form element in the republican party , " said Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan then dwelt on con tributions from trust funds to the republican campaign committee , and said that men who posed as the especial champions of the wid ows and orphans in 1896 will now be compelled to return to the wid ows and orphans funds illegally taken. This agitation , he thought , will bring growth to democracy , legislation to protect trust funds , and punishment for those who vio lated them. Democratic success is not a menace. Democracy is the champion of human rights. In a "farewell for a year" pero- STANDARD CATTLE COS. ! MULLEN , NEBR. , OCT. 21,1905 The postponement of the sale of our Ilorsps was inevitable to admit of clearing up i ur cattle in all pastures and adjacent territory.

He felt demo cratic success to be not far away. "I am proud to be a Nebraska democrat , " he said. "I am glad to meet you , and I am grateful for what you have done for me and for the principles to which 1 am devoted. " As Mr. Bryan left the platform there was loud applause while from the far corners came two lusty "amens. " As he closed the delegates began leaving the hall , and the size of the convention | was reduced by more than one- half before the next order of busi ness came up. D. C. Cole of Osceola , and Louis Lightner of Columbus , were nomi nated for regents by acclamation. The motion to nominate by accla mation was made by W. D. Old- ham. Edgar Howard said Louis Lightner will get 1,000 majority in Platte county over his republi can opponent. On motion of P. L. Hall the state j committee was authorized to fill all | vacancies on the state ticket and i in the committee that may occur , j The last formal action of the con- j vention was to extend greeting and Godspeed to Mr. Bryan. This motion was offered by W. II. Thompson , and was carried by a rising vote. During the debate on the anti- pass resolution A. M. Glover of Hamilton county opposed action of this sort and said there was not ten men in the convention who would not accept a pass if offered one. When the vote on the Hast ings resolution was taken two "no" votes were heard from the rear of the hall. From last Thursday's ( Sept. 21. ) State Journal.
