THK COJU'OIUTION PLATl'OHM
of tbo republican party in Nebraska
n tbo year of 1878 , and I will recall
t to day. Thia platform included tbo
nincipal planks of tbo anti-monopoly
platform adopted at Ilaatinga this
jroar , and it was because I in common
ivlth other altizcna of the otato of No-
braaka , indulged in tbo delusion that
it was yet possible in 1878 to take the
republican platform of the Blato of
Nebraska and place it with power and
victory on the anti-monopoly pint-
form and thus oxoculo tbo will of the
people of Nobraoka , and at lnnt put
bits in iho mouth of this corporate
power that I was constrained to advo
cate tbo republican party. I enter
tained this delusion with hundrodn of
earnest men in the atuto who lived
long enough to discover their mistake
as I did , and as I tiavo done long
since. ( Applauao. )
I wonder how many of the gentle
men who proposed to vote that re
publican ticket have boon aMo to fol-
ow in nil its ramificntiona and ovolu
.iona that plank of the republican
platform adopted that year. If thcru
ma been onu who has followed it out
10 will have discovered what I have
discovered when I took time to ait
down and unravel it. Ho will dis
cover this. It declares in the outset
; hat wo that is the republican party
- uphold and maintain the enforce
ment of that clause of the conatitu-
ion of the atato of .Nebraska , which
cilia upon the legislature to paoa laws
hat shall prevent unjust discrimina-
ion and extortions by corporations
UY WELD CONBIUKHKl ) LKOI8LATION.
Now that i ] all of that platform
that you hoar quoted by any ropubli-
aau nowapapor or republican stump
ipuuch ,
What does it say ? They propoao to
do Bomothing by well considered legls-
ation. Since 1878 the republican
larty has composed two-thirds major-
ty of the legislature and wo have had
i republican governor , and yet not a
ingle act of monopoly legislation can
1)8 pointed to to-day except the bill
mown us the Doano law. Still they
propojo to uphold the enforcement of
tbo law by woll-conaidorod legislation.
On the contrary , the republican party
in this utatn has made n dool&r.ttion
that the legislature has no moro right
to regulate the charges of corporation
or railro.id companies than they have
to regulate the price of corn , or wheat ,
or any other kind of merchandise
whatever. That is the declaration of
the republican party of to day.
Instead of advancing a < i thn Tight
has progreuaod , the republican part )
baa retreated before iho enemy of the
people nnd absolutely surrendered
thcmsolvoa to the corporations. Now ,

people to abut their oyoa U the fac

that was required in this world to ob
tain u living , then the field would b
open to nil , and ovcry man , womai

ho has got it all rondy anJ fixed foi
operation. Thcra ia OMO step in the
direction of monopoly. Wo under
stand that thoisu who poeso.s uoithei
( kill or inonuy are excluded , and ii
that setue tt becomes a monopoly.
Of all the callings in life which haw
been named industries useful for the
preservation of life or adding to out
comforts , and which require money
and skill , the railroad ia onu of the
most prominent.
It ia only ncccteary to examine this
proposition in order to discover at the
outaut that it is
TUB OUEATEST MONOl'OLY
the world has over aeon , and from the
imturo of things it ia the very oesoucc
of monopoly itaolf But the work
has not been content to leave the matter
tor there. It has gone a stop further
md by statutory enactments
iaa egged it about with bar
riers nnd restrictions which have in
creased the intensity of thia monopoly
and made it par excellence the tyrant
and monopoly of the world to-day ,
Let us look at it , In the first place ,
in the mutationi of time it has como
Lo pass that the commerce and travel
of the world has abandoned rapidly all
the old channels of trade , nnd tha
locomotive online hns replaced nil tha
old modes of travel. While the old
channels of travel wcro frco the now
ones have become the property of
corporations in this and every other
country. What n bare faced fraud
upon human rlghttl What a mon
strous proposition it is that any per
son should be led to make n declara
tion of ownership of that which ii not
and
NKVEU CAN BE rnOPKnTY.
But the people of this country were
ill too anxious to obtain the great
blessings which wore to How from this
jrcnt discovery nnd they were pre
pared to sacrifice nnyMiinc for the
lake of speedy transportation. The
irst step the legislature took was to
iurrondcr to chartered corporations
mown to the government. I under-
.ako to aay that there is no organized
government , I will not say a civilizsd
and enlightened government , from
ho United States to Ashnn eo , that
ias boon bold chough to say that the
; ovornmont had the right to take
'our ' property and give it to mo.
[ * ho boldest declaration that has over
> oen made is that government has
ho right to take private property for
mblio use upon making just compon-
lation but never without it. It is a
proposition that destroys the right of
iroporty. It strikes at human society
ind destroys human rights. It is the
ight to bo secure in our property
which makes us different from the
avago.
By virtue of the power of eminent
iomain which is vested In thn gov
\rnmont of the state of Ntbraska , in

and It was\ubmitted to certain men
to say what\you should have for it ,
ind the ground upon which they took

lhat is how ttjoy got the right of

ornnrtnt had the right to take it for

is soon aa they got it you discovered
to your Borrow that it was not for

roads about anything they toll\ou
to \
BUILD YOOll OWN UOAU. X
Chat ia merely an insult , because the
act that it requires such enormous
moans for beyond average men , ren
ders it impossible. Whoever consid
ered that fact ought to have known
rom the start that the construction ol
railroad did not differ from the con <
struotion of any other road , and tin
vast expense connected with its con-
struotion showed it to bo n public
work which the public nlono wore
equal to undertaking , arid which the
lublio alone should have been called
ipon to perform. They started oul
wrong with the proposition that th (
railroadu are property , starting oul
with the erroneous proposition thit
right is property , they wont flounder-
, ng nlong nnd made blunder ottoi
alundor in attempting to tax it , and
it last endeavored to solve the pro-
bleui by selecting
A ItOAllD OF AbHK.HSOHB ,
and finally they paid no ttixea at all.
That wo might expect , the only thing !
being taxable nro the locomotives ,
cars and rolling stock.
Whim our forefathers otnrtod thii
government , they found an institntioi :
kn those states known as savory. II
was attempted to show tint a certyii
class of men were owned by anothoi
class , nnd that they were propsrty ,
They panned Iowa , nnd thuy were forever
over and over legislating upon tha'
Bubjoct. But .ho found the grca
difliculty they hnd undertaken wm tc
make something property which-j\
never proparly , and which couldxiiy :
come under the laws of property , nn
therefore all their cHorla failed. /
Now , with your railroad track , oy c
which the commerce of the wtfld
ought to How , nud over which f/m
necessity it does flow , in the banof
private persons , all bualnrsa , Aery

are placed at the mercy of th/to par

This is the only JMIU that ii worthy
of thu nttcntion of any nmn. You

but until this issue U rottled they are
not worthy of the attention of those
men who have descended irom the
men who fought and bled lor the re
public ; not worthy the attrition ol
any wnn who loves his country , who
believes In free government , who
loves liberty or who is willing to SUB-
tain that system of tpvornraent which
our forefathers hannjd down to us ,
[ Loud applause. ]
IM mo appeal to yoyto-night tc
consider well the ciroumat ccosthicr
surround this country and calmly
look upon this matter nnd give it that
consideration which its importance
demands.
I tell you that the throat which Air.
laird is reported to have made and
which Cnpt Stickle referred to n mo
ment nqo , way bo realized in the lifo
tuna of some of you My prediction
ia this , that such n power as is wielded
by ihrso railroad corporations cannot
exist in n free country. I undertake
to any as Abraham Lincoln aaid , that
"freedom and tbn corporate power
CANNOT EXIST TOOKTHKR. "
It is the duty , then , of every man
who levee peace , it ia the duty of
ovnry citizen who levee hh country ,
to como to the frcnt nnd sco to it that
men of bratna ntid courage nhlnl
represent you in the hnllo of
legislature nnd in cougrese , men who
will go thuro with a lirort resolution
to do the thinga that nro required at
their handa and men who will enact
ju&t laws nnd will roatoro the rights
of the people , If that fruls , follow-
citizQiis , there ha3 never yet boon
a people so objootua to submit to such
oppression. Even the Egyptians ,
miserable creatures , nttomptrd n revo
lution upon less than half the grounds
which wo have for it. I toll you if
this thing goes on nnd increases ns it
has done for the past ton yearn , if the
Inw givers fail to give relief , n nation
of paupers will take the matter in
their handa nnd dear liberty , society ,
railroads nnd everything wo own it
may be will go down in
1ILOOI ) AND HUIN.
fLoud cheering , ] I do not knew what
road wo shall take to find thin relief.
I only know this. Hero is u party
known as the anti-monopoly party ,
which issues protest against this mon
strous oppression , who nro groping
through the darkness , knowing thnt in
the end they must find relief , or ruin
and devastation will como upon thia
land , You must unfurl your Hag and
follow it till couBolation ia found. I
nm rcaolvcd to follow that II ig where-
over It goes. If it brinus pence nnd
prosperity once more , I shall have
the satisfaction of knowing , along
with this party , that wo have
boon able to do something
for our country in 'vhich
wo live , and if wo fail , then I shall
have Bomo satisfaction in knowing
that I did not nit down without no
much na lifttni ? a hand to save it.
[ Loud applause. ]
Let ua rcsolutuly and persistently
continue this struggle , and if victory
comes this full let ua nay , well done.
If wo have to wait till next fall wo
will do eo , and lot us send a message
of encouragement to our friends along

spcctable set of candidate' , n gopd dent
moro of kid glove than nuythlnp else , tbo
clast of men who would do well to sit In
the higher branch of tha legislature , or in
the house of lords of England. Four of

thov cannot cast a vote in your interest
without the butinoflfl that they have estab
lished by years of hard labor. Do you
propose to put them to that test ? A man
way go to n convention and cast a ballot
and vote as his honest convictions dictate ,
but when tea merchant ROCS Into that
legislature ho IIM to cnst his vote openly
and every vote is recorded , nnd when he
knows that the c rporation is watching
him and that that vote will moro or ICES
Influence ) their conduct that they will feel
plciaed or displeased , ho dares not incur
their displeasure. One of these gentlemen
has represented us two years ngo , I refer
to Mr. Uroatch. Mr. Broatch was elected
by overwhelming majorities. Ho went
down there death on Church Howe , and
when ho voted ou the speakers ho recorded
his vote
IN PA\OII Of ciiuncii iitnwi
became John M. Thunton was paying ,
'
"You must vote for Church Howe. " 'It la
the same with Mr. Gray aud Mr. Colpetzer.
What will these men , who are heavy ship
pers , do if they get down there ? Unless
they vote as the corporations wish they
will stop tbelr accommodations in the
matter of cars and stop their rebate
and all that sort of thing. I am told that
Mr. Gray has been president of the Land
League aud that ho relic ? largely upon
Irishmen to bo elected. Now what ia the
difference between the lords of Great
Britain and.tbo . bulldozing corporations ?
Are we ( going to have ono man sustained
by the Irish vote who will ho under the
influence ot the Kama tyranny that 11 ex
ercised in the old country which the Irish
have opposed ? I think that intelligent
Irishmen will do ro such thing. [ Ap-
plauco. ] I have not ouo word to say
aguinBt Mr. Gray , but I would oppose my
own brother if I believed ho could not
represent us honestly.
Of the rest of the ticket I will hardly
speak. One nf them in in the postal ser
vice , getting 81,000 a year , nnd says that
he is going to the legislature , and I sup
pose ho expects to got that position backer
or something that ia n great de il moro lu

that wo cannot believe ho means to do his
duty.
