Vote' fo'r'Tafc. You can vote .tor Bryan at any time. The Democrats have not yet prF dnced the Republican who cut down, the Taft Banner, as promised. a ammnjasaasssi , The dispatches state Bryan will speak in several eastern states. In- vading "the enemy's country," eh! : " Although it is the summer season, the Independence ticket appears to be cutting some ice among the Demo crats. Mr. Bryan is still passing the hat in the agricultural districts. Why didn't he make the, same kind of appeal in 1896? The present campaign has brought to the front several new men. There's Stubbe, Hisgen, Cowherd and Cow Boy Jim. What has the price of silver to do' with the price of wheat? That is- a question theDemocrats are not dis cussing this year. As leader of the Aldrich forces in Polk county, Senator King is having a hard time in the attempt to induce Republicans to turn Hinshaw down. Iowa is the only western state the Bryanites concede to Taft. They are repeating the predictions made in 1900 when there was a landslide to McKinley. Now that the Democrats have nom inated Cowherd for Governor of Mis souri, it is up to the Democrats of Nebraska to do the right thing by Cow Boy Jim. The "crime of 1873" has not been mentioned by Mr. Bryan since the campaign opened. Doubtless there are more important "paramount issues this year. Mr. Bryan 'appears to be in sym pathy with the movement to disfran chise the colored voters of West Vir ginia if they insist on voting the Republican ticket Mr. Gompers has concluded not to vote all the laboring' men for the Den ver nominees this year. He has heard from the labor unions and they de clined to be coerced. The Cedar Rapids Republican asks why the Iowa farmer who is getting 80 cents for corn and 7 cents for hogs should vote for a change. What does he want the change for? The Democratic vote is always larg est before election. For instance, the Democrats claimed 20,000 majority for Bryan in Nebraska in 1900. Mc Kinley carried the state. A law to guarantee the bank depos its of Nebraska farmers will not be necessary under a Democratic admin istration. Fanners did not accumu late surplus money under the last Democratic administration on ten cent corn and thirty-five cent wheat. Nebraska farmers who have bank accounts do not appear to be crowding around the cashier's window to draw aaoney for Bryan's campaign com mittee. If Bryan has concluded to buy votes he should dip into the Com mener fund and not appeal to the fanners to divide with him. The Democratic committee has de clined the oier of Standard Oil Baily to stamp northern states for Bryan. Bat Standard Oil Haskell, treasurer af the mnwHt, finds time enough to "teach" the admiren of Bryan for coin wW to mm ba fighting for a pipe for Mr. Rockefeller through ."Graft!" This little . worarof lye letters' has played a prominSat muffin the history of the jcountry' since .the formation of the government Menu long since dead, laid thelfoundation of their fortunes on that word. But it is only' in connection with the theft of the public domain that the Journal desires to use the word. A few months ago, one of the. sign ers of the Declaration of Independence, whose bones had rested for rnorethan a hundred years in the. soil of South Carolina, were taken up and reburried in Philadelphia... As tiie'fiMe pro cession passed down tire streets of the Quaker City, it haltedthe grave of .Benjamin Franklin. Hats were re moved, heads bowed " and. a. silent prayer offered up; then the procession moved on and reinterred the remains of the man who had passed ' away one a . - aa ' hundred years previous. J. his inci dent recalled the fact that early in the history of the government the man, while occupying a position on the bench, had entered into a conspiracy, with other politicians, and robbed the government of -five million '.acres of land in Georgia and Alabama: art of the tract obtained through fraud was afterwards recovered. The government domain has always been a favorite; source of plunder by politicians, .and a history of the frauds perpetrated against the government would startle the people. It is of the land frauds of a more recent period that the Journal desires to mention frauds that made it possible for the formation of the lumber trust a mo nopoly which grinds at the door of every home, 'crushes-all attempts at competition, stifles legislation, appears to control the courts and forces the retailer to sell lumber at stipulated prices or get out of business. The foundation .of the lumber trust was laid thirty years ago, when a man named Weidenhauser, now a, resident of St Paul, Minn., with the assistance of other capitalists, planned to steal all the vacant lumber lands in Michi gan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. With the aid of the Republican and Demo cratic members of congress, they 'suc ceeded, and today Weidenhauser is the richest man in the world. He could buy all that John D. Rockefeller owns, and then have enough money left to purchase the stocks, bonds,' mortgages and other property owned by Morgan and the Vanderbilts. Weidenhauser'8 wealth is estimated at one and a half to two billions of dol lars,, and lumber, obtained through graft, was the. basis of the colossal fortune. n It was in 1878 that plans were laid by the conspirators to obtain, through fraud, the pine lands' owned by the government in the states above named. In the summer of 1879 men were gathered up in Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul and other cities and induced, for a consideration, to file homestead rights on pjne lands. Then the con spirators lobbied through congress what is known as the "Act of June 14, 1880." This act allowed all par ties who had taken government home steads, prior to that date, to go before the government land office in 'the dis trict where the land was located and prove up by paying $1.25 an acre for the land; less $14, the amount of the filing fee at the time the land was entered. All the 'land cost the con spirators was $186 aquarter and the small amount paid the party hired for making the filing. Under the pro visions of the "Act of June 14,1880," it was not required thai improvements of any kind be made on the land or a residence established thereon. The excuse given at the time for the pas sage of the bill was that the govern ment land office was behind in its work and that an act of this land would relieve the department from a large amount of labor. Many of the men who participated in the steal are now dead, but some of them still live, and one of them, Sena tor Teller, of Colorado, represents his state in Washington. Soon after the act was passed, Senator Hill, of Colo rado, who had been deceived as to the true object of the bill, denounced the measure, and also denounced Teller, who was a beneficiary of the act, hav ing previously obtained a questionable title to a large' tract of land in Colo rado. Teller and his friends drove Hill from public life. Hill died ten years ago, hardly known outside of his own state, forgotten by his countrymen for his work in giving publicity to a fraud that deprived him of his seat in the senate and drove him into obscurity'. Is it any wonder, then, that Attor-' ney General Thompson hesitates about bringing suit against a trust that has its representatives in congress, in ike legislatures and, it k alleged, on the bench a place' where the man of wealth and the man who labors for his daily bread by the sweat of his brow, are supposed to be equal before tha law.

M. P. KARR A CANDIDATE Endorsed For State Railway Commissioner By the Republicans of Platte ' County. In response to a call, a large number of Platte county Republicans assembled at the Thurston annex last Thursday evening, and unanimously endorsed the candidacy of our townsman, M. D. Karr, for State Railroad Commissioner. Henry Ragatz, sr.,. was chairman of the meeting. The following resolution was introduced by Mr. Ragatz and unanimous ly adopted i Be it resolved by the Republican citizens of Co lumbus and Platte County in Mass Convention as sembled: That we most heartily endorse the candi dacy of Myron D. Karr for the office of State Rail way Commissioner. In support of his candidacy we wish to state that Mr. Karr has been a resident of Columbus and Platte County for a number of years. He has held the position of President of the Colum bus Commercial Club satisfactorily, and we have al ways found him ready to respond to the needs of our citizens in an energetic and businesslike manner. We believe he is in full sympathy with the National and State Republican Platforms, and, if elected to the of fice of Railway Commissioner, that he will fill said office with that energy which is characteristic of the man. The office of State Railway Commissioner demands a man who will act with fairness, impartiality and good judgment on all questions brought before the commission, having due consideration for the rights of the railways as well as the interest of the shippers. As president of the Commercial Club Mr. Karr has shown commendable zeal in advancing the interests of Co lumbus, and if elected to the office to which he aspires would act with the same spirit of fairness and energy he has displayed while holding the posi-' tion at the head of the business interests of the city. He will make an open, clean, but active campaign for the office of Railway -.Commieeioner, treating the other candidates on the primary ballot' with due courtesy and consideration, and if defeated for the nomination will be found with his coat' and vest off working for the successful candidate at the polls. He is entitled to and should receive the vote of every Republican in Platte county at the primary election to be held on September 1st. DfistoCRATSTO SUPPOkTTArf The Richmond (Va.) News-Leader, a Democratic paper, says there are fully 1500 white Democrats in Rich mond and 500 in Norfolk who will vote for Taft. Similar reports come 'from other Southern Democratic jour nals. There is nothiug surprising in this; All the' leading newspapers of the South, except the Louisville Cou rierJoumal, were opposed to Bryan's nomination. While nearly all of them are supporting the ticket, they are not concealing their aversion for the man who is at the head, of it. "" Bryan is counting on receiving the entire vote of all of the solid South which has been solid in recent presi dential campaigns.. He will get the vote of the eleven states of the Con federacy of 1861-65. In most of the four slave states of 1861 which refused to secede the current i against him. Delaware and West Virgina (which was part of Virginia until 1863) will declare for Taft. They "have been in the Republican line for a dozen years, and not the slightest indication is shown that they wi if' leave it. Mary rand, Kedtockey and Missouri are doubtful, with the chances in favor of Taft. While Missouri lias never been a Southern State, the fact that it had slavery, and also that ' it voted the Democratic ticket Tor many years after the reconstruction of the Con federate States, placed it, for partisan purposes, in the solid South. . It was carried by the Republicans in 1904, however, and is likely to remain with the Republicans in 1 908. This drift of Democrats away from Bryan and over to Taft in many of the Southern States has more significance than many appear onthe surface. It marks a tendency which is undoubted ly in operation all over 'the country. While the change of base' may not be great enough to jb weep any of 'the old Southern Democratic fastnesses into the Republican column, it will count for much in the Northern and Western States,' where there is no negro issue to hold'men in line for a ticket whose head they'distrust and whose principles they hate. ' Hundreds ofthousands of men who voted for Bryan in his two previous canvasses will he against him this year. 1 This is aside altogether from the pldBryanits who are with Watson or Hisgen in the present can vass. In. 1904 the country heard a good deal about the Roosevelt Demo crats.' It ss altogether possible that the Taft Democrats may play as im portant a role in 1908. -Globe Demo crat AN ELECTION PRIMER.

Gompers has drawn a big salary for years from the Federation of Labor, and no doubt earned all he got, but when he attempted to dictate what ticket the men he works for should vote, he heard from them in no uncertain tone. Criticism is not abuse, and in violating the confidence reposed in him by those who pay him his salary, Gompers is receiving what he deserves. tha SJaau at .facta, la.fall. mbbiiih aa taa aiaaaaia c taa awna at Sfaataata, a Tata wpaar at tha gaacral aUrtlaa a aa haia Taiaiay, ma aataar ata, A.

Still, as Attorney General of the State of Ne braska, Mr. Thompson has a duty to perform, and it is up to him to act, regardless of his political future. After he has disposed of the lumber trust, he should follow up the good work by clipping the tentacles of the grain trust. the Democrats expect' to bring about the results promised has not yet been explained by Mr. Bryan or any of his followers. Up to last Friday, $10.50 was re ported as having been raised among the farmers of Platte county for Mr. Bryan's campaign fund. Nebraska farmers are not tumbling over one another in haste to haul their grain to market and' hand over the proceeds to Democratic politicians. In "the eastern states the Bryanites are putting up the argument that if the Democrats are successful living will be less expensive butter, eggs, flour, meat and everything that goes on th poor man's table will be cheap? er. Wages, they say, will not be reduced, but, on the other hand, will be' increased. In the western states the Bryanites tell the people that a Democratic victory would not decrease the price of farm products.- - The two arguments do not harmonize. If the people of the east are to have cheaper flour eggs, meat, butter' and other necessaries of life, there must be a re-party victorious. junction in the price paid for the products raised on the farms of Ne braska. If the men who work in the factories and .mills of the -east are to. have their wages increased ia the event of Bryan's election, shoes, cotton goods, woolen goods, cutlery nails, farm machinery, wagons, buggies, eta, will oast more in Nebraska than at By what art of legerdemain WILLIAM HUSENETTER.
