WEST POINT, Neb., July 26. (Special.)
Another severe electrical storm and
heavy rain Interfered seriously with har
vesting operations In this county last
night. A strong wind accompanied the
storm and did great damage to the ripened
grain, laying It flat In many fields. About
one-third of the harvest Is done at thla
time, and with floe weather for the next
few daya will be finished In six days more,
but the prospects are for more rain, which
will be very harmful to uncut grain. Corn
Is In splendid condition, never looked bet

yield a crop above the average.

LINCOLN, July 26. (Special Telegram.)
The unheralded visit of D. H. Mercer and
Frank Ransom during the early hours' this
morning may be significant In connection
with the Indefinite poatponement of Oov
ernor Savage's trip to Omaha to confer with
Interested persons regarding the Fire and
Police commission appointments, especially
aa the two men were In close consultation
with the governor while here.' They came
on the train arriving here at 12:40 a. m.
They were Joined down town by the gov
ernor and together the three went to the
Elks' clubrooms, where they remained while
the reports of the Jeffrlee-Fltxslmmons
prize' fight were coming In. After the knock
out they went to the Lincoln hotel, where
they remained in uninterrupted conference
for over an hour. The midnight visitors
left the city on tha 7:45 train, returning to
Omaha.
"That waa all a pipe dream," said a man
close to the governor, speaking of the re
port In The Bee that Oovernor Savage
would arrive In Omaha at t o'clock this
afternoon. "He didn't Intend to go any of
the time."
Notwithstanding the declaration of Gov
ernor Savage and his friends to the con
trary, there are good grounds for the as
sertton that the meeting of the early morn
ing was prearranged, but on short notice,
and that It was all because of the gov
ernor's expressed intention to listen to
Omaha taxpayers before making the ap
pointments. Tha reason Mercer I Inter
esting himself In the case la self-evident
for with a commission whose appointment
he has dictated or Influenced he will be In
a position to exercise authority over the
commission's creatures. One msn almost
hysterically remarked when he heard of
the court's decision declaring It to be the
duty of the governor to make the appoint
ments, "that will save Mercer If he can
name the men for the commission."

OMAHA, July 26. To the Editor of The
Bee: A local newspaper charges me with
having two years sgo repudiated the re
publican platform, for which I voted as a
delegate from thla district In the national
republican convention. Tbe charge Is false.
I should be Judged by what I ssld, and not
by the headlines that were written by the
World-Herald.
The platform declared specifically that
the pledge to Cuba should be kept. Any
republican campaign speaker who argued
otherwise two years sgo repudiated the
platform of hia party. Any republican
speaker who argued that China was to be
divided by the powers of Europe and that
It wa necessary for our commercial In
tereats to obtain sovereignty over a por
lion of China In the expected division, has
been proved to be out Nof harmony with
republican policies. Any republican who
argued in favor of the colonial system in
the Philippines snd sympathised with the
restrictions upon the elective franchise
which baa been adopted by the democratic
party - In the southern state, repudiated
that plank In the republican national plat
form which In effect condemned the demo
cratic party for disfranchising the laboring
population of tbe south who happened to
be colored. President Roosevelt himself.
in his Decoration day address, has trested
the question of the permsnent government
of the Philippine Islands as an open one
and said that it ahould not be determined
until after a stable government la formed.
Freedom la Philippines.
i
Meanwhile, all the legislation In refer
ence to the Islands haa tended toward giv
ing them local self-government and en
couraging them to participate In political
affairs. More freedom In the Ajnerlcan
sense haa been given to the Philippines in
the short space of four years than was
ever given by any other conquering people
to their subjects In a century. Every
person who Knows me, knows that my
love Tor and belief in freedom makea me
aympathlze with the present course ana
willing to assist in Its fruition. It is not
the manner, but the end, we seek. "That
In the end freedom In the American aenae
will be obtained through the republican
party always It champion I have no
doubt
Many political Issues existed long before
the Spanish war and will exist after Phil
ippine affaire have passed Into history.
Who ever knew of a republican being con
demned by his fellows because he loved
freedom and believed that only In the bet
terment of the conditions of the poor can
aoclety improve? I care not whether tho
poor are the tolling masses of the norm,
the disfranchised laborers of the south or
the helpless subjects of othcx nations. Par
ticipation In and responsibility for the af
fair of government la the only policy that
ever developed Individuality and charactr?
In any people.
Such deceptions as are beln; practiced

dent Roosevelt In selecting Mr. Llttleflcld
to prepare tbe bill for the regulation of
trusts and monopolies. .Why did' not -ths

ought, to be equipped by teu years of office
tor such work, instead of a man who had
