Railway Amendment Endangered.
Someone has taken a look at the consti

lusha with waiting too long before having
the notice of the railroad constitutional
amendment published. The constitution re
quires the notices to be published for three
"months" prior to the election.
Mr. Galusha says he mailed out a great
number of the notices last Monday and
those papers which had not yet received
the notices were the daily papers, and only
a few of the others. "However," ssld Mr.
Galusha, "the constitution will not be vio

10, and thirteen weeks would havs elapsed
prior to the election. Attorney General
Prout aave this office an opinion four years
ago that thirteen weeks' notice would con
form to the constitution."
Governor Mickey professes to be very
much exercised over the matter and he said
an unnamed prominent lawyer told him
the failure to begin the publications last
week was vital to the legality of the
amendments, even If they were ratified.
Other lawyers, however, hold that the
supreme court will not permit the will of
the people to be thwarted by any quibble
over the notice publication.
Berae Stirs Ip Something.
George W. Berge has started something in
Lancaster county and he will have the
fight of his life to get an Instruction here
for his candidacy for the democratic nom
ination for governor. The editorial In his
paper some days ago In which he said the
democratic leaders sulked In their tents
two years ago and left him to fight the bat
tles of the people alone was bad enough,
so the democrats are saying, but now that
he has demanded an Instructed delegation
the "last straw has been placed on a long
suffering camel's back.
Attorney toyle, who used to be Berge's
law partner and who respects his sincerity.
Is opposed to an instructed delegation. 80
Is Dr. Hall, and so Is Mayor Brown, and
so Is Richard L. Metcalfe. On the Berge
editorial Mr. Metcalfe today Issued the fol
lowing statement:
I know nothing of Lancaster county poli
tics and have no intention of taking part In
county convention. But I have a very
thorough conviction that nothing Is to be
gained by quarrels among democrats or
between democrats and populists. Neither
is there necessity for such quarrels. Let
us give the republicans the monopoly on
that line.
The editorial In Mr. Berge's ftaper to
which democrats take umbrage was most
unfortunste. I have no Idea that the
gentleman who wrote It Intended It to lis
a libel on Nebraska democrats; for I know
the writer as one who has for many years
given faithful service to th. democracy.
But as the editorial was printed. It stands
as a libel upon men who in 1!M gave to Mr.
Berge, th. populist, as faithful support as
they ever gave to the most 'radical demo
crat. 80 faithful were th. democrats to
Mr. Berge that at 11 o'clock on the night
of election, his election was Indicated by
15.00 plurality; such would have been the
result had populists supported him wltn
th. unanimity shown by democrats. The
objectionable editorial would leave th. Im
pression that every man that had been
prominent in democratic leadership de
serted Mr. Berge and left him to fight the
battle alone. That Is. of course, utterly
abiurd. I know sometling about the demo
cratic campaign of two years ago and I
venture the assertion that one cannot nam.
three democrats recognised as leaders who
failed to give Mr. Berge hearty support.
Kven men who had been known as leaders
of th. gold democrsts Joined heartily in th.
support given the democratic nomine, for
governor in 19f4.
I While Mr. Kerge did not write the 00
I Jectlondble editorial, it was printed In his
I paper and goes out with th. stamp of his
I approval. It Is so unjust to the men who
faithfully supported the ticket two years
sgo that Mr. Berge should have repudiated
It long ago. I am surprised he hss not
don. so.
I am sure that th. desire among demo
crsts, generally, Is to choose as their can
didate for governor the man who seems to
he th. strontest. Ther. is not th. smallest
danger that the railroads will control our
nominations this year. It Is not fslr for
th. supporters of any one candidate to say
that those who do not support their
favorlt. ar. controlled by th. corporations.
You can trust th. democratic convention
of IKS to ae. to It that th. nomine, for
governor is a man who Is fre. from th.
slightest suspicion of corporation entanglements.
with populists that I could support a
fusion populist as cordially as I could a
democrat, but I would not willingly .sub
scribe to the statement that one member
of our party qualified to carry the anti
monopoly standard is one who does not
claim to belong to It. 1 think It would be
well If a contest In Mr. Bryan's home 1
county wer. avoided. To this end, Mr.
Berge ought to repudiate the editorial to I
which objections have very properly been
made. He can do this gracefully, for the
simple reason that neither he nor any
olher man big enough to be governor of
Nebraska can afford to stand sponsor for
the false Impression conveyed by that
editorial. Then let a delegation b. agreed
upon and selected without a contest. In
all my observations at democratic ststa
conventions since the old time "gold demo
crat" fights I do not remember of a
serious disagreement among the Iancaster
delegation. Certulnly no one who aspires
for democratic honors need fear to trust
his claims to a delegation composed of
men who sre anxious for a democratic
victory In Nebraska and are reso'ved to
sacrifice every personal preference or pre
judice in order to contribute to that end.
We have a good chance this year. Let
us not spoil It by brandishing clubs. If
I have a personal enemy among the demo
crats of th. stste, I will cheerfully sup
port him for nomination and election If It
be the consensus of opinion at the state
convention that he Is the strongest man.
We need not be Interested In th. per
sonal ambitions of any man; our
chief anxiety should be for the success
of th. party through a victory that In
Its results to th. public will b. worthy
of the effort. If we can all work along
that line, we will choose a ticket that can
not be defeated. At all events, let us con
duct our ante-convention fight so ther.
will be no sore spots when the real battle
begins.
