LINCOLN. Sept. 26. (Special,) In an ed
itorial which will appear In the Commoner
tomorrow V. J. Ilryan advises President
Roosevelt to lay aside all afplratlone for j
election tn the presidency nt the end of
his present term. Mr. Ilryan says;
The fondest nnplrntlon of Mr, Roosevelt
have been realized; tho highest honor i
within I Iu- Klft of tho people In any land Is I
now his, With what snlrlt will lie enter
upon, the discharge of his duties? The nn
ftwor to this nutation Is of tremendous Im
portance) to him And to his country, lie has
threo and one-hnlf years In which to show
the American people his conception of offi
cial duty. Will ha be content to devote
himself unselfishly to the public Rood as he
ees It. or will ho begin to plan for the cap-'
ture of the next republican convention?
Mr. Hoosevelt will llnd that there arc
many things that "can bo best accomplished
by nn executive officer who Is under no
temptation use the patronage of his
office to fMnotb Ills own re-election." If
he will announce lilt determination not to
bo a candidate for renomlnatlon he will be
relieved of a great dt-il of cmbarrnssmcnt
and anxiety and he will find sufficient
"strenuous life" In an effort to make his
administration conspicuous for Its honesty
and efficiency. If he Intends to appear be
fore the next republican convention an a
candidate he must prepare to light the
bosses of his party or to surrender to them,
lie Is Awaie of the fact that the republican
organization did not look with favor upon
Ms candidacy, he was thought too Inde
pendent If he Is Independent and docs his
own thinking h will alienate those gentle
men (It is not ntfcemary to name them) who
Insist upon controlling polltlcn.1 affairs In
their varlJtis sections. There Is one ques
tion which President Itoosevelt will have
to meot upon which his course Is likely to
bo determined by his nmbltlon. If he Is
5!
oin to scK anotner term lie win find it
ifflcult to untaironlze the crent rnrtuirn-
tlons which lire ranldlv securing n monon-
oly of the nation's Industries, for the trust
magnates are Influential in republican con
ventions and their contributions nru helpful
during campaigns. Tho financiers will In
sist upon controlling the financial policy of
his administration and their threats will be
potent If ho must pans through a republican
convention before ho enn get to the people
for an endorsement, but their fury will be
of no avnll If he Is content with the record
mado during the present term.
Scarcely a day will pass but that ho will
have to decide between himself and the peo
ple What will his decision be? Three
years anil n hilf of work as n conscientious,
arnest and brave defender of the Interests
of the people would win for him more real
7 lory than seven years and a half devoted
o the advancement of his own Interests
tho first half spent In contracting obliga
tions with Influential men and corporations
nd the second hnlf spent In discharging
Ihe obligation at the expense of the people.
President Itoosevelt has reached the part
ing of the ways; which road will he take?

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept. 26. (Spe
cial.) A smooth pair has been working
the merchants of this and other cities In
Nebraska.
Some days ago a man representing him
self to be an agent and also the junior
member of tho firm of Ounnlson & Co.,
stationers and dealers In periodicals, sold
Hugh I'latte, who deals in stationery, a
bill of goods. Tho man had the self
addressed envelopes of the Qrm, their
printed receipts and their order blanks,
and his story was so plausible and his
knowledge of the business so perfect that
Mr. I'latte paid him S2U or (30 on a bill
of goods.
Mr. I'latto soon learned that the com
pany had no agents on the road and sent
out cards giving a description of the
Bwlndler. He was, It Is learned, arrested
nt Atchison, Kan., and taken to Pueblo
for trial, having apparently committed tho
same crimes there.
When the local banks made their ex
changes yesterday It was found that a
forged check had been returned from an
Omaha bank to the Orand Island Hanking
company. The check was cashed by a llutto
(Mont.) bank and sent to an Omaha bank.
Tho Omaha bank sent It to tho Orand
Island Banking company, which took It to
the First National bank of this city, upon
which It was drawn by T. A. Costello, In
favor of J. 1). Howe. The amount of the
check was J12.no. Cashier llcntley of tho
First National bank, whose uamo had been
signed as certifying to the check, pro
nounced thb signature a forgery and tho
check will go back to tho Ilutte bank.
This check was forged by an entirely
different party.
Payment In Itf-funt'tl,
Word waa received In this city today
to the effect that forged checks cashed
In Ornnd Island were, refused payment at
Rome, N. Y. Inquiry developed the fact
that the checks referred to, at least two
of them, wero given to merchants here
In exchango for goods and change. About
September 11 or 12, at tho tlmo that the
alleged agent of Gunnison called at
Tlntte's bookstore, a well-dressed man with
a mustache, wearing n dark Prince Albert
coat, called at A, C. Ledcrman's hardware
store and asked for a refrigerator; H
priced ono and went out to sco If he could
do better. Ho roturucd later, said ho
would take tho rcfrlgorator, talked with
Henry Lcdermnn about shipping It to Chap
man at the expense of tho firm, which Led
crman refused to do, and finally took the
box anyway. Ho ordered It shipped to
Mrs. J. D. Howo at Chapman, Ho pre
sented a certified check on a Rome (N. Y.)
hank In payment. The check called for
$12 moro than the cost of the refrigerator
and Ledcrman gave him the change.
Oilier Trnnniiotloiia.
Tho samo day he bought an oil stove at
the storo of R. II. McAllister nnd had It
shipped to Chapman. Ho presented a
check nnd received considerable in change.
Ho then went to the store of Mr. Costello.
a furniture dealer, and bought a bed and
presented n check on a Rome (N, Y.) bank,
but Costello would not cash It. Mr. Cos
tello was called away while tho stranger
was In tho store. Later In tho day he
missed his checkbook, n plain checkbook,
without his name printed on It, Ho had
already given the stranger n bill on a
printed billhead for the bed. This bill
head was printed In what Is known as tho
Tudor foco, tho J looking like a T. This
was where the stranger had his Montana
Inspiration nnd It Is probable that the man
Is working his way across the country In
this manner.
It was discovered that tho man who was
nt Platte's and Howe, who bought so much
goods for his Invnlld wife at Chapman,
are confederates. Mr. Platte states that the
man who swindled him" was accompanied
by a man wearing a dark Prince Albert
coat, having a mustncho nnd wearing
glasses. Ho wns of tho samo build as tho
man who cnlled at Ledcrman's. The book
agont, It Is learned, secured $200 that day
from dealers In Hastings, Kearney and
Orand island. Tho heaviest Individual loser
was In Hastlncs.

FREMONT, Neb., Sept. 26. (Special.)
For the last ten days an Item has been
going the rounds of tho local state press
concerning an alleged anarchist society In

meets so secretly as to bo unknown to the
police. It Is claimed that ono or two copies
of Most's paper come here regularly, but
there Is nn anarchist organization here.
Several years ago a socialist club was
formed hero by a few people of foreign
birth, but It has practically gone out of
existence. Its doctrines were entirely
different from those of the anarchists and
Us limited membership was composed of
reputable working people, who desired to
better their condition and who had no sym
