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

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. If the lumber barons possess the
power to drive a man who opposes
them from the senate of the United

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
