Populism Once
Custer County,
While only a few oldtimcrs
and Nebraska historians may
be aware of it, Custer County
was once the hotbed of the
Populist Party in Nebraska.
Such information was again
brought to the attention of
scholars in a thesis written
by Annabel Deal, formerly of
Broken Bow, and recipient of
a Ph.D. degree in history at
the University of Nebraska
this June.

Kan., and long-time teacher
In the Broken Bow public
school system, has written a
definitive work on Populism
in Custer county and the pion
eers who supported it.
According to Dr. B e a 1,
Custer county pioneers were
ready for Populism when they
blended their demands for
(lower freight rates, higher
prices for farm products, and
expanded currency for broad
er reform programs.
Dr. Beal discovered that
the Populists controlled every
county office for 12 years, and
from this stronghold collabor
ated with others including
Democrats to pass t h e
freight regulation bill of 1791
and to elect William V. Allen
to the United States Senate
in 1796.
Dr. Beal, in her thesis,
traces the progress of t h e
Populist movement through
the times when the party
fused with Democrats and
Free Silver Republicans un
til the latter resulted in the
destruction of the National
People's Party.
By 1902, Dr. Beal writes,
Custer county Populists had
i lost all eight county offices
! to Republicans.
She concludes that through-
: out the progressive move
! ment, Custer county Populists
i witnessed the incorporation of
! Populist concepts into Amen
can life, remedies for adjust
ments in a nation no longer

Community development

Council of Federated Or

port, Mississippi, a coast
citv and resort area of 38,
000. Voter registration has
been a major goal and has
involved the usual canvass
ing activity and talking
with individuals about t h e
importance of voting and
how to learn the informa
tion needed to pass the vot
ing test. The project consid
ers it equally important to
insure that the vote is
meaningful. Voters need to
think for themselves and
act for themselves in such
a way as to use the vote
and not have it sold.
Negro leaders in the com
munity have often acted
for their own benefit rajher
than for the benefit of the
community, and have neg
lected to provide encourage
ment of discussion in de
ciding which candidate
should be supported.
The Gulfport Project
seeks to build a political
structure which will give
the people a chance to do
this thinking and acting for
its means and structure may
become equal to the magni
tude of its tasks.
The schedule for the rest
of this week includes:

that "99 per cent of the prob

will be a real voice of the
people.
The project staff spends
time living with the people
and talking, listening, and
dealing with the issues they
face. An effort is made to
help people focus on par
ticular problems that they
are interested in, learning
how such problems are
solved, and the ways to
mobilize to deal with the
situation. In addition, the
task is to coordinate ef
forts between various pow
er factions within the com
munity. The work with the anti
poverty bill is one indica
tion of this approach at
developing leadership with
in the community. After the
North Gulfport Negro

In response to J-Staters
querrics, Morrison covered a

and the need for youth to solve

The Governor said that "The

your problems Is you." He em-
000 Just to administer the
program for the first seven
months. This Included a
director with a salary of
$1000 per month, plus other
benefits. Furthermore, the
12-man committee involved
only three Negroes who
are not considered adequate
representatives of the com
munity. In protest to HCCAC's
procedures, a public meet
ing was held at the North
Gulfport High School to
elect a committee of thir
teen members to apply for
an anti-poverty grant and
programs for North Gulf
port. These people live in
the community and are rep
resentative of the people of
North Gulfport. They have
added representatives from
the county government and
the school system.
If a government grant of
money is given to the com
mittee, they will hire a
staff of workers to find out
pertinent information about
poverty in the area. Then
they will set up programs
in which the community
will participate, to bring
more skills, more money,
and more hope i nto the
community. These pro
grams will not solve pov
erty, but will be a start.
Currently, both IICCAC
and the North Gulfport Ci
vic Action Committee are
submitting applications to
the federal government
without signing it after
if either of the groups will
be given funds. Then the
Governor of Mississippi
will have the options of sign
ing it, vetoing it, or allow
ing it to go into effect
wthout signing it after
thirty days.

phasized the importance of
personal responsibility and
said that "if you're motivated
and want to do it, you can do
anything." He also said that
every person should be fasci
nated and intrigued by t h 1 1
world in which we live.
He spoke of tourism in Ne
braska as a "sleeping giant"
which is already bringing
more income to the state than
the entire yearly wheat crop.
He emphasized the role of
tjie Individual citizen in pro
moting tourism. If each Ne
braskan would act courteous
ly and kindly toward visitors,
commented the governor, our
tourism Income could be dou
bled In five years.
This would be accomplished
he reasoned, because "the
scarcest articles in the world
today are friendship and un
derstanding." He also emphasized the fact
that we live in a beautiful, his.
torically significant state.
Most Nebraskans are ignorant
concerning the location of
many of the State's natural
and historical wonders. The
Governor cited particularly
two attractions: Pioneer Vil
lage, rated in the top 20 tour
ist attractions of the nation;
and, the state capitol, re
garded as one of the ten most
beautiful buildings ever built
in the history of man.
During his administration,
Morrison has initiated several
measures to promote tourism.
Among them are the increased
park program in the state and
the establishment of the chain
of lakes along the interstate
highway system in the Platto
Valley.
Morrison said any increase
in state taxes should go to aid
to education.
The primary target of h i s
concern was the lack of state
funds to aid primary and sec
ondary schools.
The Governor said that "tfie
first ten years of a child's life
are the most important, the
most formative."
lie also said "Society has
an obligation to equalize grade
school education for all."
He emphasized the fact that
faulty communications were
the cause of much of the con
troversy and misunderstand
ing concerning the income tax
bill. "All of us need to seek
the truth . . . through unin
hibited free discussion," he
said.
The Governor touched brief
ly on these pertinent subjects:
(1) The problem of reap
portionment "will never be
solved" because of the con
stant, rapid shift in popula
tion. (2) The probability of locat
ing a proton accelerater nu
clear power plant in Nebras
ka is slight because of the lack
of an outstanding Physics and
Chemistry Department at the
University and the lack of a
large metropolitan area.
(3) He expressed alarm at
the "apathetic attitude" of the
youth of today and their seem
ing lack of interest in politics.
(4) He indicated that he
would oppose the repeal of 14
14-b of the Taft-Hartley A c t
and stated that the passage of
right to work laws was strictly
a state matter and should ba
left up to the particular states.
(5) He stated his opposition
to capital punishment, explain
ing that it simply didn't ac
complish its purpose of defer
ence. (6) He strongly supported
mandatory drivers' license ex
aminations. He lamented the
tragic situation of highway
deaths and said that the situa
tion should be of "deep moral '
concern" to all.
