THE KEARNEY DEMOCRAT EDITORIAL There has been some misappre- hension among Cherry county dem- ocrats as to where Mr. Dahlman stands , though most of them know him well and admire him for his Andrew Jackson characteristics. The Kearney Democrat calls forth . a response from Mr. Dahlman that Cherry county people will be inter- ested in knowing and we want every reader to give Mr. Dahlman a fair and partial trial before they con- demn him. It is only fair to Mr. Dahlman. Read it : "The Democrat asks , in the name of the democrats of Nebraska , and particularly of Buffalo county , that James C. Dahlman , , if he is to be a candidate for governor , should tell them whether he intends to stand fairly and squarely upon the demo- cratic state platform. Mr. Dahlman says he is not a 'four-flusher , ' a 'straddler' or a coward. We know he is not the lat ter , and for that reason we are now going to ask him a few fair and square questions , and we desire that they be answered in a public man- ner that "every democrat in the state may know and have an intelligent understanding just where he stands in regard to the democratic party and its platform , upon which Mr. Dahlman must stand , if he stands as a democrat , or from which he must descend if he is not going to openly and squarely abide by its utterances : The following pertinent planks are an important part of the demo cratic platform adopted at Grand Island : " . ' 1. 'We heartily approve of the day- light saloon law and we recommend the courageous action of Governor Shallenberger in approving it : . 'We stand for , and insist upon a strict enforcement of our present law and believe that any further changes in our liquor legislation ought to be decided by a direct vote of the people. 'We favor providing for the in- itiative and referendum. 'We pledge our local committees and the state committee and our candidates not to accept contribu- tions from any railroad or other corporations , trust , brewery , , distil- lery , or saloon or organization or from any person or association or pecuniarily or prejudicial interest in securing or defeating legisla- tion. : "These are the features of the democratic state platform which Mr. Dahlman is requested to p ain- ly , clearly and without equivocation \ or evasion answer and tell the party . ' just where he stands. , We want to know if you 'approve the daylight saloon law , ' and wheth- er you will sign or veto a bill , should such a one pass the legislature , re pealing that law ? We want to know whether you are in favor of the 'strict enforce . ment of our present laws , ' which includes the daylight saloon law ? We want to know if you are go- ing to refuse 'to accept any contri butions from any railroads , corpo- rations , trusts , breweries , distiller- ies or saloons. ' Your party platform makes it plain what is expected you as a candidate , and the party has a right to know whether you propose to stand upon its declarations. You have the reputation of being out- spoken and open in your purposes and declarations and not 'strad- ler , ' and we are certain you will tell the democrats of Nebraska that you are standing upon their platform , or that you : ale not. " This is .Mayor Dahlman's reply : "My attention has been called to an article in the Kearney Democrat which asks me 'a few fair , square questions. ' It is desired that these questions 'be answered ; a public manner , ' in order , the Kearney pa- per says , that every democrat in the , , . . _ . . _ - - - " ' ' . . . . . .

' - state may know just where I stand in regard to the democratic plat I form. The Kearney Democrat is no more anxious to have the people know I i exactly where I stand than I am I myself. ) I have never had a con- viction I was ashamed of or afraid | 1 of. I don't expect to win or don't j want to win by fooling anybody. I want to deal fairly and frankly with I the people of my s ate. If they agree with me I would be grateful for their . support , but I have no de sire to gain any man's support un- der false pretenses : These are the planks of the dem- ocratic platform as to \\hich the Kearney Democrat wants to know where I stand : First-The daylight saloon law. . Second-Strict enforcement of our I present laws. . 'l'hird-The initiative and referen- dum. dum.Fourth Fourth-Campaign contributions Fifth-County option. I will state my position with re gard to each of them , and try to do so in such a way that no man can misunderstand me. I was opposed to the daylight sa loon law at the time of its passage as a denial of the right of home rule and local self-government. I think now exactly as I did then. I am a democrat , , however , and I stand on my platform. If any effort should be made in the legislature to repeal this law , I should lend it not the slightest encouragement or sup- port , either personally or officially. I shall instigate no such effort my- self. I realize that this law has given satisfaction in many commu- nities , though it has failed to give satisfaction in others. I think that any effort to repeal it at this time would be inopportune and unwise , in view of the more important ques tions that confront us. If , however , the legislature should , of its own motion and without any assistance on my part , repeal this law , I would sign the bill repealing it. I stand squarely for strict en : forcement of our present laws , in- cluding the daylight saloon law. It is because I stand for strict law en- forcement that I am opposed to county prohibition and to state pro hibition. I think a reasonable tem- perance law , like the Slocumb law , which can be enforced and which the people respect , is a better temper- ance measure than a radically re strictive policy , like prohibition , which cannot be enforced and which makes for lawlessness and disrespect for the law. I think the strictly reg- ulated saloon , operated under the sanction of a majority of the people of the community , and with its hours of opening and closing ] fixed by law , is far less harmful than the unregulated illegal drinking . . joint would be , operated at all hours of the day and night , paying no license and subject to no supervision. One good law that can be enforced is worth a hundred that can't be. The latter do far more harm than good I think our present liquor laws can be enforced and I pledge myself , if elected , to their enforcement. I am in favor of the initiative and referendum. As a candidate forgovernor I will resuse 'to accept any contributions from any railroads , corporations , trusts , breweries , distilleries , or sa loons' as well - as from any person whom I know to be 'pecuniarily or prejudicially interested in securing or defeating legislation : There never was a time when I did not' depend on the plain people rather than on the wealthy and favored classes for my support. I have been recklessly attacked as 'the can- didate of the brewery , ' but every man who knows me knows that I am fighting prohibition , not be- cause the brewers are also fighting it , but because of my love for per- sonal liberty and the rights of the humblest citizen to enjoy the privi leges which our form of government intended him to have. It is to the plain people that I shall look for support in this campaign , for it is r t their battle I am fighting. I I am opposed to county option , first , last and all the time. I should veto a county option bill ! ] , if the leg islature passed it. I should do this ' I' the more readily since it is a matter _ , , . . , - - ' - - - ' - ' - ' : : : : : : : --,7' , - - - - . . . . . . - , - . 1M , . ' ' ' , - ' ' ' . , _ . ' . . ' . !

This state might , on i direct vote , go against county option by 20,000 majority snd still , owing 1 to an unfair apportionment , elect a coanty option legislature. But if i i this state elects me governor there will be no county option law except over my veto. I regard county option as the first' step to state l prohibition. So does the Anti-Saloon league and it frank- ly says so. So do all the other or- ganized forces that are fighting for county option. There is no differ- ence in theory or practice between county prohibition and state prohi- bition. Each denies to a communi- ty the right to govern itself. Each would give to one town the power I to vote prohibition on another town without its consent. Each is a man- ifestation of fanaticism , intolerance and bigofry. Either would lead to lawlessness and secret vice and crime. I am everlastingly opposed to both. I have tried to answer the Kear- ney Democrat frankly. I hope I have satisfied both its editor and all other citizens who may have some doubt as to my attitude. If there is anybody who still doubts , all he has to do is to ask me. And he may be sure that , after I have answered , my course after election will be ex- actly in keeping with my promise to I I the people made before election. JAMES C. D nr aIAN. ' - _ _ _ w - . - - . , y . . . . . . yy I OUR WASHINGTON LETTER L _ _ ( Special Correspondent ) _ _ 1 , . "I , Am Throunh With It" So spoke Senator Dolliver ] of Iowa. He meant that he would never again raise his voice , either in , the Senate of the United States or from the stump , in defense of excessive protection. I I _ "I do not propose , " declared ! Dolliver , "that the remaining years I of my life shall be given up in dull : consent to the success of all these . . conspiracies. ( Conspiracies in the PayHe-Aldrich bill. ) I intend to fight as a republican for a free market on th's continent. " In other words , the mighty Dol- . liver , for years ; an ardent protec- tionist , is conscience stricken. For . years ; he has implored the people to believe in protection. Suddenly he stops and looks about him. He beholds the work of his own voice. The people are crying out at the i increased prices that have accom panied the system of protection. I Dolliver himself declares that . the special interests have got con- trol of the government , and that the many are being outrageously ] : robbed by the few. His eyes opened , he is appalled at the mag- : I nitude of the sins that protection i has visited upon republic and peo- ple. ] ple.The The experience of the United States with protection is not new or peculiar in this country. Ger- many boasts of its high protective I tariff , and even while it boasts the German masses are turning to socialism by hundreds of thous- ands. Italy , one of the most highly protected nations of Europe , is pauperizing its people that a few become multi-million men may - - aires. Wherever high protection has been worked out , the best that could be said of it was that it bene- fitted one out of ten. Seeing that the very life of the republic is endangered by the con- ditions which have followed pro- tection , Dolliver is courageous enough to say : "I am through with it. " That is why his speech will live : in history , because he said : "I am through with it. " The philosophy of the Iowan , in itself , was not new , any more than 'were his statements that Congress , in passing the Payne-Aldrich bill , was dominated by the tariff trusts. Democrats have told the same story time and again. Dolliver merely indorsed the democratic viewpoint , which is that excessive protection robs the many for the few. " Senators regard the Dolliver itttx , ra. . mac , ' Ji. iii1jJl - ' - , I I , 4 , - . j e . ' . . .J / . . . .t ' 1 speech as the most impressive ora , tory the Senate has listened to in I J many years. It will take rank among the ' foremost examples of American eloquence. Dolliver Admits Error . When Senator Dolliver ] ) was at tacking the Payne-Aldrich bill in the Senate last ] spring , Senator I Depew of New York chided the i Iowan with the statement that he ( Dolliver ) had traveled all over the _ country in the campaign of 1896 making speeches in which he ' charged the Wilson bill with re sponsibility for the panic of 1893. "Would you now pass a blue pen- cil through those speeches ? " asked Depew. " ] f I were called upon now , ' " said Dolliver , "to repeat what I _ . . . , ; - said as an enthusiastic , youth in the house of representatives many years ago , I would blue pencil a good many of the explanations I gave there for industrial condi- tions which surrounded our indus- tries in that far-off period. . Just Listen To This ! . * The once much-boasted Taft eco nomy is no longer mentioned , either in "r asbin ton or by the republican newspapers. For ex cellent reason , too. Indications are that the last Congress spent at least 20,000,000 more than the previous session , which created a new high water mark in republi- can extravagance. Here are a few of the increases over last year's appropriations , in bills enacted : Rivers and harbors , $23,462,954 Postoffice departm't 5,119.825 Sundry civil . . . . . 8,633,994 Agricultural depart. 517,600 Consular and diplomatic 505,520 District of Columbia 247,429 : 38,487,422 * An Enemy of LaFollette ' President Taft is leading a move- . ment-though from behind the . . scenes-to feat Senator Robert M.
