(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Sept. 25. (Special. )-Looklng
back oVer the platform conventions, one
of the noticeable features marking the
revolution In Nebraska politics was the
absence of familiar figures without whom
In previous years no state convention of
any political party would be recognizable.
The guardian angels sent out from railroad
headquarters to help make the party nomi
nee and censor the platform declarations
failed to put In an appearance. Not even
a special searching expedition would have
uncovered an expert railroad politician
within talking distance of a , convention
delegate, although In all the conventions
some members were sitting who had pre
viously been allied with the railroad con
tingent. The only reminder of old times
was Bob Clancy, who stopped over nigtht at
the Lincoln, explaining that he was on the
way- to Wahoo and came here merely by
force of habit. For the first time In the
history of Nebraska, so far as Is known,
the railroads permitted the state conven
tions to assemble and to adjourn without
attempting to map out any program for
them or to say what should or should not
be done.
Some Others Missing-.
In addition to the absence of the railroad
brigade, the absence of distinguished party
leaders from the fusion conventions was
likewise very marked. In the olden days
It required all the persuasiveness of the
big guns, going from one convention hall
to the other, to get the various wings of the
"allied reform forces" to agree upon one
set of candidates to run under the fusion
banner. Whether the fnct that the candi
dates were already nominated and no such
work was to be done, or mere general
apathy is accountable for It the big guns
for the most part stayed at home. Think
of a populist convention without ex-Sonator
Allen, without Mike 'Harrington, without
ex-Governor Poynter, without ex-Congressman
Sutherland. Think of a democratic
convention without the only democratic
congressman from Nebraska, without our
own cowboy "Jim," without ex-Judge Sulli
van, without ex-Attorney General Smyth,
without ex-Congressman 8tark, without
Colonel John G. Maher. To be sure, the
greatly admired William Jennings Bryan
graced ie occasion and George W. Berge,
once candidate for governor, wrote the
platform, but even the nominee of the com
bined fusion party for governor last year,
A. C. Bhallenberger, failed to show up In
appreciation of past favors, although not
a candidate for present honors. No wonder
it was disheartening to the handful of the
faithful who aiumhiad tn ahnw that th.v i
.... . . , T
are still true to fusion and whose chief
compensation was the privilege of listening
to Bryan s oratory.
Slates llara to Slake.
Practically all traces of the five conven
lions held here yesterday have disappeared,.
a few delegates only remaining over until !
the afternoon trains home, most of them I
leaving yesterday afternoon. Interest now
Is centered, of course, In the selection of
a state chairman of the republican com
mittee. Several names .have been sprung,
but .poiltlolanj here Have- discovered that
hC-setbf men tan get ""together ' and ix
up a slate, so the Identity of the chairman
Is up In the air. On several occasions tho
State Journal, in Its effort to make a slate
to force on the committee, has published
that Judge Reese has had experience with
an unfriendly committee, meaning the com
mittee of 1S99, at which time he was de
feated for election, and urged the selection
of some person who plight be recom
mended by the candidate. The story was
repeated with variations until It became
rumored that tho republican candidate him
self was authority for It. Judge Reese Is
quoted as saying he never expressed any
such sentiment, but on the other hand he
himself selected the chairman of that com
mittee and the secretary was Frank Har
rison. Orlando Tefft of Cass -county was
the chalrmaTt selected by Judge Reese. The
committee selected another chairman, and
wnen ne resigned Judge Reese requested 4
Orlando Tefft. J. J. McCarthy and Harry
Lindsay to come to Lincoln for a confer
ence. Judge Reese said he wanted one
of these men to serve aa chairman. The
men conferred and concluded to make
Tefft chairman, providing McCarthy would
remain and act as vice chairman and Lind
say would manage the speakers' bureau.
This was satisfactory to Judge Reese.
All this came out yesterday afternoon,
thought it has always been a mstter of
history, when Tefft and Congressman Pol
lard had a rather heated discussion at the
Llndell hotel over the matter. It was re
ported to Mr. Tefft that Pollard had said
Judge Reese was dissatisfied with his 1899
committee. Tefft at once called Pollard,
who said he had heard the report as a
rumor and did not even know that Tefft
was the chairman. Tefft then called upon
Judge Reese, who denied emphatically that
he had evw entertained such an Idea, much
lesa give expression to It." The only rea
sonable excuse for the publication of such
a story Is that the Journal got its wires
crossed In Its seal to Ox up a slate for the
state committee.
W. B. Rose, chairman of the old re
publican state committee, has called a
meeting of the new committee for Mon
day night at the headquarters at the
Llndell hotel. This committee will select
a chairman, secretary and tresaurer and
outline plans for ths campaign. While
the old committee went out of existence
alth the selection of ths nsw, the con
vention empowered Mr. Ross to call Die
new members together, as the primary
provides this committee shall select Its
own chairman. Otherwise there would
have been no way to call the new com
mittee together.
Incidentally the appointment of Harry
Dobbins a member of ths state com
mittee Is occasioning comment. Mr. Dob
bins is editor of the Lincoln News, owned
by the State Journal company, which
during the last campaign adopted a reso
lution that none of Its employes could
accept or be a candladte for any political
position and hold a Job with the compauv.
Will Owen Jones, editor of the Journal,
was ths first to go under when Senator
Burkett offered him ' a federal appoint
ment. Jones explained that the rule did
not apply In his case, and It Is presumed
Dobbins will do the, same thing, unless he
resigns from his News Job.
The people heer are still talking ot the
speeches piade yesterday by ths repub
lican candidates, especially the talk made
by Judge Sedgwick and Judge Reese.
Revising Soldiers' Home Rales.
The Board of Public Lands and Build
ings met this afternoon to revisn tha
rules governing the two sollders' homes
located at MUford and Grand Island. T.ie
board lias not yet completed Its work,
but It will In all probability change the
rule relative to the amount of money
to be paid Into the cash fund out of the
pensions of the members. Heretofore
each soldier receiving a pension was re
quired to psy Into the cans fund all over
111 of Us pension. Tus rule wnlch to
board has about concluded to, adopt Is aa
follows:
All who are members of the homes at
the time of the adoption of these rules,
or who msy hereafter terme such, who
ar receiving, or who 'may hereafter, a
pension In excess of S 1 2 and not more
than 110. shall pay Into the cash fund
of the home 10 per cent of the amount;
tit and not more than III. 0 Mr cent:
1 24 and not more than 129, SO per cent.
In cases where any member Is receiving
130 or more, he shall pay such an amount
as the commandant and the board may
deem Just.
Provided, further, that where a man on
application Is helpless or afterwards be
comes helpless, so that he requires con
stant or special atetndance, he shall be
required to pay any portion that the com
mandant and the board may deem equit
able, except In the rase of a dependent
wife or children.
The old rule required the member to
pay In all over 111 he received as a pen
