Coloned C. K. Edwards, chiof of the
Pureau of Insular Affairs, Is Secretary
Taft s personal representative In meet
ing Intending visitors. Ho is a very
pleasant man and chock full of informa
tion relating to the islands, where he
served on I.awtnn's Fluff and was with
that lamented officer when h'i was killed.
Colonel Edwards recalled that ho l.ad
passed through Omaha once before, hut
on a sad errand. Ho vas In charge of
tho body of General Law-ton when It was
brought buc from the Philippines.
"In the Islands we always looked for
death to ceune In threes and fours. That
Is, we would go along for weeks, per
haps, and not lose a man, or even have
one pinked. Then some day one would
be killed and we would all wonder who
the other two or three would he. It was
so at the tlmo of General Lawton's death,
one of the four who were killed within
a day or two being a young officer who
was standing almost beside me."
As chief of tho Insular burca i Colonel
Edwards has all to do with tho govern
ment's business In tho Island, but he
gives Secretary Taft a large share of
credit for the work done.
"Mr. Taft Is a hog for work," said
Colonel Edwards. "He has been shoul
dering large responsibilities for months
and yet he never grumbles or neems un
duly hurried. He is a wonderful man
In a great many ways big enough for
any occasion. There Is no one who meets
him but at once takes a great liking to
Mr. Taft. Ho is always genial and ap
proachable and can dispose of a big bunch
of business every hour without getting
Out of sorts.''
Colonel Edwards has charge directly of
the Itinerary so far as the congressional
party Is concerned. He understood, he
said, that Senator Patterson of Colorado
may possibly be detained from Joining
the party when they reach Denver, but
he expects all of the others whose names
are given to go ri the Philippines. There
are seventeen women In the party be
sides Miss Roosevelt, and up to this
time everybody Is well and enjoying to
the limit the Journey across the conti
nent. Many persons In the party havo
never been over the route before, and
they are acquiring an education in tho
progress and solidity of the west.
Among the Omaha people who paid tholr

MAKING THOROUGH TOUR OF DISTRICT
Old Line Democrat Gives Reasons
Why Republican Candidate tor
Congress Shoald Be
Klected.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. July 2-(Speclal.)-E. M.
Pollard, republican nominee for congress
In this district, reached Lincoln at mid
night last night after a week of speech
making throughout Nemaha, Pawnee and
Johnson counties. Saturday Mr. Pollard
spoke at Pawnee City In the afternoon
and at Stelnauer at night.
"I find republicans much more Inter
ested than I thought they would be at
this time of year," said Mr. Pollard. "All
of Our meetings have been well attended,
and. so far as I could learn, there are
no sore spots In the party. I did not
expect large attendance at the meetings
because the farmers at this time of the
year are unusually busy, so I have been
agreeably surprised at the number of
people who did Come out."
That the republicans of this district
are sitting up and noticing things there
Is no doubt. Vice Chairman Stroude has
been busy all week getting out literature
to send out to stir up the voters to tho
Importance of retting to the polls, snd
he feels that a good vote will be cast
based on the reports from the various
counties. Jn each county the organisa
tion has settled down to work and en
couraging reports are coming In dally.
Mr. Pollard left tonight for Nebraska
City and from there he will go to Syra
cuse, where he will speak at the old
soldiers' meettng and at the county com
mittee meeting. He will speak at Salem
Tuesday forenoon, at Table Rock that
afternoon and at Humboldt In the even
ing. He will be out all week, but his
route has not jet been arranged by the
committee.
Mayor Brown was at Plattsmouth and
In other towns In Cass county this week
and he, too, looks for a heavier vote than
most people are figuring on.
Democrat Holts Brown.
The republican committee la In receipt
of a letter from ex-Senator Collins of
Lincoln, a democrat, who Intends to vote
for Mr. Pollard, in which the writer gives
his reasons for deserting the democratic
nominee and reasons why other demo
crats should do likewise. The letter fol
lows: An old-fashioned democrat who has voted
the democratic ticket uninterruptedly for
the la.it forty years, believing that the
political contest In the coming special elec
tion for congressman in this congressional
dlHtrlct Is not so much between tnej repub
lican and democratic parties as betwe-en
President Roosevelt and the people on the
ono side and the corporate monopolies on
the other. In widen party lines should
a great extent be Ignored, asks the. privi
lege of briefly staung tne leasorio ,,.iy
he intends (no Intervening Providence) to
make an e xception at such election to his
usual custom and vote for tho republican
congressional nominee, In the belief that
If such reasons are good and sufficient
enough to induce him to so vole that they
are good and sufficient enough to Induce
other democrat to go and do likewise.
It is a commendable characteristic of the
American in-ople to have great confidence
In and respect for any man e. horn they
believe to be honestv putrlotlc and capable
and who Is fearless enough to rave the
courage of his convictions whether they
agre-e with him in his opinions or not, and
so universal Is the belief that President
Rooeve(t possesses those characteristics
that If an election were to be held tomorrow
for president, freed from the manipulations
and Intrigues of professional politicians,
trusts and soulless corporations, I believe
he would be elected by such an overwhelm
ing majority that it would be practically
unanimous. And as It Is quite evident
that a contest Is soon coming on. If not
already Inaugurated, between the adminis
tration forces In congress and the trusts,
railroads and other corporate monopolies,
Is it not the duty of every patriotic demo
cratic voter who desires to aaslst In up
holding the administration in this conten
tion to cast nshle temporarily his party
affiliations and vote for the republican
candidate in the coming special congres
sional election?
More especially should he do so In view
of the fact that a system has grown up In
congress with all political parties that Is
growing stronger and more binding as the
years go by to have all Important ques
tions of party policy settled In a congres
sional party caucus, the action of which
Is considered binding upon each and every
member thereof, Irrespective of Individual
eiplnlons. Hence, every democratic voter
who believes In standing with the president
as against the corporations and trusts
ought to appreciate the Importance of
electing a congressman who Is of the same
political purty as the president and who
is pledged to stand squarely and stead
fastly by the policy of the administration
In a republican caucus, the place where
that policy will be securely approved and
upheld or Irrevocably defeated.
Brown la Fowerleaa.
As to Mr. Brov,n, the democratic candi
date, who is acknowledged to be an honor
able, capable and popumr citizen ol pro
gressive ideas aim would receive many
votes outside Mis party and make an ideal
congressman under ordinary circumstances,
but If elected now wuulu be practically
helpless to assist the president in his war
on the corporate monopolies from the fact
that he belongs to an opposition and mi
nority party and would be ruled out of
any republican congressional caucus and
that, too, very properly where tne whole
matter will unuouuteuiy be settled. He
could, therefore, only stand by as a mere
spectator viewing the contest from afar
oit without the power to render any as
sistance to toe administration, no matter
huw much he might be personally Inclined
so to do.
Again he would be In honor bound to
abide by the action of a democratic con
gressional caucus and what that action
might be is problematical a political par
ties In congress as elsewhere, are apt to
Btand with the old-time Kentucky democrat
who, when asked what the principles of
the democratic party were, replied that he

From the home of the famous "Keyh
nel Keeyarth of Cartervllle," away down
South, comes an enthusiastic letter about
Postum.
1 was In very delicate health, suffer
ing from indigestion and a nervous trouble
so severe that I could hardly sleep. The
doctor ordered me to discontinue the use
of the old kind of coffee, which was like
poison to me, producing such extreme
disturbance that I could nut control my
self. But such was my love for It that I
could not get my own consent to give It
up for some time, and continued to suffer,
till my father one day brought home a
package of Postum Food Coffee.
"I had the new food drink carefully pre
pared according to directions, and gave It
a fair trial. K proved to have a rich flavor
and made a healthy, wholesome and de
lightful drink. To my taste the addition
of creAm greatly Improves It.
"My health began to improve as soon as
the drug effect of the old coffee was re
moved and the Postum Coffee had time to
make Us Influence felt. My nervous trou
bles were speedily relieved and the sleep
which the old coffee drove from my pillow
always came to soothe and strengthen me
after I had drunk Postum In a very short
time I began to sleep better than I had for
years before. I have now used Postum
Coffee for several years and like It better
and find It more beneficial than when I
first begen. It Is a.; unspeakable joy to be
relieved of the old distress and sickness."

There's a reason.
Kead the little book. "The Road to Well
vUlSa" la each packagsa
didn't exactly know, but that he believed
It was "to go agin the whlgs."
It Is theiefore quite leiwonable to pre
sume Judging from the usual position
taken In the past by political parties In
congress th.et the democrats would "go
agin" any position taken by the ri pub
licans. If the republicans lined up with
President Roosevelt and the administra
tion, the demo rkts would very lle"-ly go
the other w and vice versa.
I'nder all these conditions, which In many
respects are somewhat uncommon snd pe
culiar, 1 have come to the conclusion that
It Is for the best Interest of the people of
this country to have the republican candi
date for congress elected at the coming
special election hy so emphatic a majority
as to retry demorallf.it ion Into the camp
of the republican enemies of the policy of
the administration, and as It Is the first
14-clal election of congressman, as far as
I am Informed, since this controversy was
rnede prominent. It will be setting the pace
for anv o'her special congressional eleeilon
that may lx called under like circum
stances. Therefore, let the voters speak
out with a voice that has no uncertain
sound
Briefly, to recapitulate, the republican
candidate for congressman frini this dis
trict. If elected, will occupy a position th.it
will enable him both In the republican cau
cus and In congress to materially aid the
president In carrying out the administration
policy as to the trusts, railroads and cor
porate monopolies. The democratic cn mil
date, If elected, no matter what his ability
may be or how good his Intentions are. be
longing as he will to the minority party In
congress, will be powerless to render any
such valuable assistance.

Dr. John T. Balrd, who has for thirty
consecutive yer.rs held the pastorate of

delivered his farewell sermon to his church
and congregation. Dr. Balrd's resignation

pastor wished the same accepted, his wishes
were finally carried out, and on June n
the relation was dissolved by the Presby
tery In accordance with the Joint request
of the church and pastor.

longest Is that of Dr. Wheeler of South
Omaha, who has had charge of the church
there for seventeen years. Dr. Balrd has
also held the Important position of stated
clerk for the Presbyterian synod of Ne
braska since Its organlxatlon In 1874, cover
ing a period of thirty years last October,
at which regular meeting the synod pre
sented him with a beautiful gold chain
and charm with the appropriate data en
graved thereon. Previous to the organiza
tion of the Nebraska synod, from 1S6U to
1874, Mr. Balrd served us stated clerk of
the Missouri river presbytery, extending
from southeastern Iowa south and west,
covering Missouri. Kansas, Nebraska and
west to the Rocky mountains. Including
Colorado, I'tah and Montana.

and ten. He graduated from the Cincinnati
High schtiol In 1S&4, and was honored by
being selected valedictorian of his class.
In 1S59 he completed bis college course In
Yale and In 161 graduated from the Prince
ton theological seminary. During the war
and previous to his coming to Nebraska
he divided his time between preaching In
Cincinnati and performing his duties as
a member of the Christian commission, the
work of which was to conduct religious
meetings and to contribute In many other
ways to the necessities of the soldiers en
gaged in active service. For the eleven
years previous to coming to Plattsmouth
he was pastor of the Presbyterian church
at Brownvllle, Nemaha county. The late
Robert W. Furnas and Mr. Tipton, Ne

drawn, has stupefied the Russian admiralty.
The whereabouts of the errant battleship
Knlaz Potemkine Is unknown here. No
plans for capturing It have been devised
and the policy of non-interference seems
to be at present In vogue. Tho Bltuatlon
would furnish a libretto for a comic opera
were not tho elements of the plot so serious.
Dispatches from Odessa and Sebastopol,
which are confirmed by the admiralty, clear
up fully the present situation. The Knla
Potemkine has sailed from Odessa and Is
now at largo, and Its crew, reinforced by
sympathisers from shore, Is still in control
of the vessel.
On the Georgl Pobledonosets. which cast
In Its fortunes with the Knlai Potemkine
after Its arrival at Odessa, and landed Its
officers, the more loyal or more timorous
portion of the crew again gained the upper
hand and agreed to surrender and disarm
the ship. The rest of the squadron re
turned to Sebastopol without venturing to
take up the gauntlet thrown down by the
mutinous crew of the Knlaz Potemkine, and
Admiral Kruger, after a council of war,
finding that he could not depend on his
crews, ordered the fires drnwn beneath the
boilers of his ships and gave permission to
all the disaffected officers and sailors to
quit the vessels and go ashore.
The sailors of the Ekaterlna II were
known to be so muttnous that the battle
ship was left behind when the squadron
started for Odessa, the whole crew dis
missed and the ship disarmed.
The Knlaz Potemkine, which was steering
a southerly course when It left Odessa,
would within a few hours be south of Rus
sian limits snd may next he heard from at
some Balkan or Turkish port.
Explains Result In Japan Sea.
The spirit manifested throughout the
fleet goes far to explain the defeat In the
Sea of Japan, as a large part of the crews,
especially those of Admiral Neboga tofts
division, were drafted from the Euxlne sea
and evidently were not In a mind to offer a
stout fight.
The proclamation attached to the dead
body of the Knla Potemkine sailor,
Omlltchuk at Odessa, th text of which
wa received yesterday, confirm the state
ment of the authorltle that the revolt was
engineered by social revolutionists. Th
proclamation terminated with the slogan of
the party, "One for all and all for one."
This makes the situation more serious than
would have been the mallei- of simple dis
affection and gives rise to the greatest ap
prehension that the revolutionary organiza
tion may have conducted an equally suc
cessful propaganda among the soldiers, the
results of which will be suddenly mani
fested when the army Is railed Un In
some Internal emergene-y.
