period last year. The amount paid out for

Last week N. C Abbott of Tekamah, who
aspires to the democratlo nomination for
the office of state superintendent of public
Instruction, Waa In Oi.iaha, and following
his visit the World-Herold published what
purports to be the report of an Interview
'.with him. In this Mr. Abbott Is mads te
ay that "Nebraska Is heaped up and
running over with republican who are
going to vote for Bryan." Other similar
utterances are credited to him. The Teka
mah Journal calls Mr. Abbott and chal
, lengee him to produce the republicans who
are going to. vote for Bryan. The Journal
ays none of the Tekamah Republicans Is
for Bryan, but, on the other hand, alleges
that many democrats of Burt county are
tired of the peerless leader and will follow
fclm no longer.

Due to the persistence of the democrallo
city council and In direct opposition to the
recommendation of the mayor, the tax
levy for 190 remains the ssme ss the pres
ent yesr-1.150.orV-from ISO.nW to liOO.OOO

Fearing the city council might change Its
mind for the fifth time on the tsx levy for
19o. President Johnson lost no time In ap
proving the action of the council Tuesdsy

nesday morning. The approval of the hlgier
levy puts a quietus to the controversy and
the taxpayers of Omaha will have to raise
from 150.000 to 100,0u0 more next year than
the mayor believes necesssry
The higher lvy was fixed upon last
Tueaday night, following the decision of the
vacllllatlng council the day previooe to
make It I&0.000 lower. Mayor Oahlman ve
toed the measure on the ground that there
will be no need next year Of large sums
In the general and sinking funds. The
veto wss sent to the council Tuesday even'
Ing and that body promptly auatalned Its
chief. Later, however. Councilman Elaasser
thought better of the action and reintro
duced the same old resolution calling for
the higher levy 490,008 In the general fund
and I3GO.0TO In the sinking fund and it pas
pasaed.

Councilman Zlmman, the republican mem
her who baa strenuously advocated the
lower levy, sought to have the matter re
ferred to the committee of the whole for
consideration, bur lost. By referring it
for discussion, action would have been de
ferred for one week and by that , time
Mayor Dahlman. who left Monday night
for Texaa, would be home.
In the final action Councilman Zlmman,
through a misunderstanding In a mlxup of
amendments. Inadvertently voted for the
adoption of the Elsasaer resolution for the
higher levy. He subsequently made a mo
tion to reconsider, which will set Mm right
on the record, even if the motion to re
consider was lost. Councilman Bedford.

cilman Zlmman for the lower levy,
Reaaoaa far Vote.
Mayor Dahlman vetoed the higher Ux
levy for the reason that It will place In
the sinking fund H75.000 more than enough
to pay tha I2TA0OO Interest. This year 146.-
w has been paid on old Judgments, 110,000
nas been taken out of the public works
fund, and 15,000 has been used In equipping
tne ornce of the gas commissioner. The
last two Items will not be duplicated next
year, and In the opinion of the city at
torney 110.000 will cover all Judgments next
year. This will mean a cut of 140,000 from
me general fund. Unpaid taxes Will In
crease the total sum In ths sinking fund
to I7S.000 by January 1. all of which. In
the opinion of the chief executive, will
maae an excess of HTB.0O9 In the funds
under the .higher levy.
The city comptroller was Instructed to In
clude In the next appropriation ordinance
the sum of 8.MT. for the taking np of a
iiumuvr oi oia warrants which the courts
have decided the city must pay. The old
warrants were Issued ten and fifteen years

CITT Of MEXICO, July ll.-To the Edi

of the present rsmralgn In the states ta
the fact that both the old parties are
giving too much attention to the personality
of their candidates and not enough to the
principles that they represent. We are
constantly hearing of Bryan and Bryanlsm.
as If there was nothing before Bryan, as
If the great democratic party had not been
led by liberty loving patriots, had not
met and settled Important questions In
volving the rights of sll the people long
before Bryan was ever heard from. The
fact Is Bryan la preaching no new doc
trine. The writer a quarter of a century
ago heard General Weaver advocate most
earnestly every political Idea enunciated by
Mr. Bryan.
The same Is true of Mr. Booeevelt. We
are conattntly hearing of Roosevelt and
Rooeeveltlsm. Many so-called republicans
are saying I am for Taft because I be
lieve he will carry out Roosevelt's policies.
Borne are even saying they are for Bryan
because he will more nearly represent
Roosevelt than will Mr. Taft- The Amer
ican people are naturally hero worshiper.
They surround their popular public men
by a sort of divine halo, a dassllnc light
which seems to cloud their reason. They
listen to the enthusiast who deala in gilt
terlng generalities, and accept as true tha
grossest misstatements without stopping to
Inquire into the facts. Roosevelt did not
get his anti-trust Ideas from Bryan,
though all democrats and a very few weak-
kneed republtcana are saying he did.
Charlea H. Van Wyck waa elected to the
senate from Nebraska on an anti-monopoly
Issue while Bryan waa still wrapped In
his political swaddling clothes, and Theo
dora Roosevelt was still wearing political
knee breeches. The late Edward Rose-
water was flghtlnc the trust aa a repub
lican long years before Roosevelt had been
made collector of the port of New Tork.
A republican senate, led by the great Bher
man of Ohio, supported by a republican
house and a republican president, enacted
the anti-trust law, the enforcing of which
Is one ot the tblnejs which has made Roose
velt the Idol of the American people. Why
not give the credit where It rightfully be
longs, to the republican party and tha man
whom Bryan vllllfled and abused twelve
years ago because he waa one of the prin
cipal actors in the commission of the great
crime of 73." I would not pluck a single
laurel from the brow of President Roose
velt, but I must Insist thst the republican
party is older and greater than he Is. That
he Is great, not because he preached any
new doctrines, but because he enforced re
publican laws aa he found them, not be
cause he borrowed any political capital
from Bryan, but because he haa been a
good republican. The republican party will
gain much In the coming campaign If they
will dispel ths foolish notions , that Koose-
rel'.lem la not republicanism that Roose
velt got his . Inspiration from Bryan. As
a matter of fact, Bryan never advocated
a single political idea which Roosevelt and
the republican hive made an accomplished
fact. If Taft deserves election at the hand
of the republicans U la because be is
republican and will execute republican
laws, not because he Is the choice 01 Mr,
Roosevelt. . FRANK M. CURR1E.

LINCOLN, Neb.. Aug. 4.-TO the Editor
of The Bee: I notice In a late issue oi
The Bee a communication from one Plum-
mer advising negroes to vote the republican
ticket. The writer might be mere correct
in some of his historical statements. He
credits the republican party with the
adoption of the thirteenth amendment
abolishing slavery. The present writer
would like to call attention to the fact
that the resolution submitting such amend
ment passed the house et representatives
with only two votes to spare and could
never have passed without the votes of
IS democrats (I can give the names If
desired) who voted for it. Sincerely yours.

City.
On the fece of the monthly statement of
the city clerk, leeued Tueaday, the funds
for general expense of the city governmen
enow an aggregate balance of I17.SJ9.0S.
This was a far greater balance than wss
hoped for. The largest amounts remain
In. the fire fund, which contains t3.0-Jl.4t;
the water fund. tVg:4.M: the Interest fund.
4.W.07. and the curbing and paving re
pair. 12, 2. 40.
However well this may look on paper,
the following note appended to the report
by the city clerk shows how the utter de
pletion of funds was averted:
Claims' for furniture, vault fixtures. Jail
work, architect, city hall balance, amount
ing to about 110,000, are yet unpaid and are
carried over.
The clalma have never been allowed, so
could not be taken Into account. This
amount represents most ot the tangled ends
of affairs left as a legacy from the demo
cratic administration. In addition, M0 of
the salaries and 1300 of the police claims
were carrrled over, as well as other bills
mounting to 15,000. So If the affairs of
the city were all squared up as they
should be. the balance left from the demo
cratic administration would not be over
M.W0.
The republicans left 2,000 to their demo
cratic successors two years ago.
