fight In Lancaster' county Tueaday
li clear-cut. It will be. ovr th selec
tion of a legislative llcke pledged to county
optldn. Another ticket la In tha field
which It not pledged to county option and
neither la ,lt p.-lgd against county op
tion. The county option slat Is composed
of tha "following:' r
8enators E. P. Brown, and J. H. Mock
ctt. Jr.
Representatives tc. W, Brown. Cyrus
Black. W. J. Blyejon. L. 8. Oilman and
B. F. Johnson.
The slate which has not endorsed county

Senators C. O. Whedon and 8. W. Burn
liam. iprcientst!ve L, O. Kns. W. O. Qlss
William A. Mreoiv John E. Low and
Frank ReJoha. : . .
No candidate has been 'asked to pledge
himself except on the on proposition,
county option. Both Whedon and Burn
ham, candidates for senator, refused to give
out ah -expression on this question. Friends
of both contend county option Is not tha
Issu In this campaign. Friends of both
urge their selection because of their stand
ing In the community and for the things
each has done for tha republican party
and the county. With two exceptions. the
men on tha county option ttcket hav
served In previous legislatures, but their
records r not being discussed. The"
friends are running them solely on the
county -option endorsement. The contest
Is badly mixed snd the outcome will be. In
doubt until the vote Is counted.

to overcome the opposition In other parts
of the district.
"If you nominate me, then I shall be
thankful.
"If you defeat me. then I ahall not be
' ashamed, because I have done what 1
rotild In my weak way to lay my cause

clubs to. defeat Taft because of an act of
President Roosevelt's that he himself en
dorsed the while he has nothing to offer
the colored man and stands by the dis
franchisement of him In the southern dem
ocratic states. His words and his acts on
that negro question alone stamp him as
one who la after votes regardless of how he
secure them, a practice a cbronlo seeker
ever indulges In.
The Free Lance editor Is opposed to
Bryan and his alleged policies and prac
tices, and will vote for Taft, the republican
nominee, not that we are a republican, but
consider that It Is best to have him win.'
"Taft Is an able man and has had a
great deal ' of experience In public lite,
He haa a Judical mind and 4s the best

for the high office of president. Hia year

"There was an objection to Bherman

" 'Not only am I In f jll and complete ac

Giving Out. JUate Jacks
Smr Shot,
Reaffirming their preference for Ashton
C. Bhallenberger. the duke of Alma, as a
candidal for governor. of Nebraska on the
democratic ticket, and reiterating that they
will hav nothing to do with Mayor Dahl
man, the Jacks have unsheathed their
scalping knlve and are after the man who
divulged their slate and let It be known
to the public who the old guard of de
democracy will support In th prlmarlea
and who will be given the marble stare.
The Jack club had a meeting Sunday, an
official meeting, attended by all Its officer
and all fourteen of its members, It Is stated.
The meeting was called hurriedly to dis
cuss the divulging of the club's slate and
to deckle upon the punishment for the man
who gave out the elate. At least, leaders
said they would chastise somebody. There
was much heated argument, and bitter cen
sure was heaped upon the head of the
culprit who kept not his own counsel, but
let the press have an Inkling as to what
candidates the Jacks would support.
"Shell the Jacks Ralef"
After many plans had been discussed, th
club drew up the following statement for
the press, the statement being signed by
C. J. Bmyth. president of the club, and
written In his own band and attested by
B. P. Berryman, secretary of the organisa
tion and one of tha mayor's appointees.
This Is what Bmythe wrote In the note:
While we believe that the members of the
Jacksonlan club are a unit for Mr. Bhallen-
berger, there has been no endorsement or
him or of any othar candidate for any
office bv this club, nor has the matter of
the endorsement of any candidate been
considered at any meeting of the club. It
being against the- policy of this club to
endorse any person prior to the primaries.
After drawing up this declaration the
club adjourned and "the members started
out on a still hunt for the man who gave
out the slate. Who the guilty one Is de
ponent sayeth not, but leading Jacks give
It out that they believe he Is one of the
candidates for nomination and therefore
gave out the slate to let It be known that
he had been endorsed, with the Idea that
this endorsement would get more votes.
"If we can find out who It was who made
public thla so-called 'slate' of the Jack
sonlan club, we will make It hot for him,
and If he Is a candidate he will wish that
he were not and that the primaries were
a thing of the past," said Former Sheriff
Power. "The club denounces this slate
business and If there Is a traitor In our
camp.he is going to be routed out."
TAFT AT MIDDLE BASS
(Continued from First Page.)
there is a single st,ln upon the escutcheon
of the republican jwty under Theodov.
Roosevelt in meeting all those new prob
lems, not only that, but lu respect to our
foreign affali a. rrwvsr. In the history of the
nation haa the ,tB.ndari, ef tha United
State been higher rhetor the nations of
the world than it. is. today. My friends, you
can recollect than four years ago we were
told that If Theodr. -Roosevelt was put In
powr he 'wouUfc around- this, country
with a chip one hla shoulder and Involve
ua In war; that he- raa waiting for some
body to tread on the -tall of his coat In
order that ha might have a fight. What
was the result? It I not necessary for me
to detail It. only to state that never before
In th history of the world ha a president
of the United Statew. an administration or
any emperor or monarch done more to pre
rerve the peace of the world than has
Theodoie Rotsevclt at the head of this ad
ministration. Dlngley Bill and Prosperity.
"Under the Dlngley bill of li97 wo went
ahead to a prcspeiity never before known
In this country and, Indeed, never before
known In the world.' The Investment of
capital and the expansion of Invested
funds, the expansion of business went on
to such a great extent; wages were In
creased and the standard of living of the
wage earner, of the business man and of
the farmer was Improved beyond prece
dent. But we found in the business world
that we had expanded ourselves a little
too far; that capital had become fixed tn
enterprises that did not. make, the return
sufficient to Induce further Investment!
capital became frightened and now w
have had a halt In that prosperity. Cap
ital la necessary. If we are going on and
not embrace socialism, and anything that
is done to frighten Invested capital, any
thing which leads Invested capital to doubt
the question whether a fair return would
t paid, affect Injuriously both the wase
earner and the capitalist and the farmer.
"Now, what I say Is, that the Introduction
Into power of the democratic party under
Its present leadership will create doubt of
the future In the minds of the people, In
the minds of those who will Invest capital.
These are not all millionaire. The capital
ists of thl country largely are the meu
who contribute to the savings banks, who
contribute in many small amounts the
great funds that are aubsequently Invested
In plants. Now unless you assure the capi
tal, unless you can bring about that con
fidence you may be certain" that th return
to prosperity which la now gradually as
suming a definite form, will halt again,
rrosecatlon of Trasta.
"In this great development of wealth, thl
magrflcent stride onward and expansion
of prosperity there crept In abuses, abuses
growing from the greed and unscrupulous
character of some of the prominent men
engaged In business. They violated the
entl-'rust law and they violated the re
bate law, and the railroad extended to the
! shippers, tlu so-called "truata," a meana by
which they could drive their competitor
out of business by secret rebates. All this
was revealed early In this administration
and Mr. Roosevelt and the republican party
took hold with a determination to stamp
It ' out. Now I ask you, gentlemen, heart
to heart, whether the action which Mr.
Roosevelt, whether the rate bill which the
republican party passed, whether the purs
food bill and the meat Inspection bill, and
all those great measures of a republican
congress were not an Indication and a fol
lowing of the moral awakening of the peo
ple In order to make the corporations un
derstand that they must- obey the law.
Wa don't wish to destroy these great or
ganisations that have a targe wage fund
when they are prosperous and that add
greatly to the proaperlty of th country,
but what w wlah to do I to keep them
within that law. That Is what th republi
can party atanda for, and Intends to do,
If you give them an opportunity.

"But I am asked, what la th relation of
the republican party to labor T I want to
soak on statement first; that never in
tha history of th country ha ther been
an administration tbat ha passed mor
measure directly In - th Interest of labor
than th present republican administration.
"Tak th employer' liability act. Con
gress has passed a law now by which rail
road men. engaged in Interstat raltrvi-l
shall b put on a level with the corporation
In dealing with K In reapect to th damage
that they sustain growing out of their em
ployment. This measure, which for a tech
nicality was thrown out by th supreme
court, has been repassed In lawful form by
the present congress. Then there ar also
all of these safety appliance acts, which 1
hop will tend to reduce th awful sacrifice
of life among the employes of the railroad.
Then, too. there ar other measures, the
government employers" compensstlon for
Injuries which require Interstate employe
to serve only a certain number of hour and
forbids their service longer.
"Ndw I come to th question of Injunc
tion. In tha first place, I understand that
my own personal attitude toward labor has
been represented as a man who thlrfci snd
says that a dollar a day Is enough for any
man. Well, there la on short way of
meeting that statement, and that la that It
Is a lie. I never said so. snd I don't think
that It argues intelligence In any man. who
"believes th statement, for what under the
heavens would Indue me or anyone to
ay sof
'In the second place, they say that I am
the 'father of Injunction In labor.' I have
issued Injunction In labor cases, ther Is
no doubt, and I have done It because the
right of the plaintiff entitled htm to an
injunction, and when I am on the bench
and enforcing the law, I enforce It, and
don't make any apologies for It. It fiaa
been my lot to sit In labor case,' to sit In
anti-trust cases. When I am a Judge of
the bench. Insofar a I can, I'declde cases
ccording to the law and the facta, no mat
ter whom It hurts, because I believe that
to be my sworn duty.
Rights of Organised Labor.
"Now, It has been my lot to lay clown
the rules with respect to the right, of
labor in two or three cases, and I refer
to those cases ss a full statement of what
I believe the rights of labdr to be with
reference to Its employment. Labor has
the right to unite In organisations tor
the purpose of looking after th united
Interest of labor In its controversy with
capital, because If It did not unite and
was not permitted to unite, then It
would lie helpless. Laborers have the
right not only to unite, but to contribute
funds which in times when they wish to
leave the employ of their employer when
they did nst like his terms, may suggest
their fellow members. They hav- th
right to appoint officers who shall con
trol their action If they choose. They have
th right to Invite all other laborer to
unite with them and to withdraw if they
choose from association with their em
ployer. But they have not the right to In
jure their employer's property; they have
not the right by what Is called a "sec
ondary boycott to Invite a third person
Into the controversy who wishes to keep
out, by threatening a boycott with him un
less he' assists them In the fight. In this
fight between the employer and the em
ploye the united employes, they must
fight It out between ihemselves, and they
must not Involve the rest of the commun
ity In It by a system of duress. This law,
I believe, IS a fair law, and being a fair
law. When I was on the bench I at
tempted to enforce It.
"It la said I Introduced th Injunction
first ' In labor cases. That gives me too
much credit for Ingenuity and too great
honor a an Inventor of Judicial proceed
ings. If you will examine authorities you
will find that ther were a number of
rases before I Issued my injunction at all,
and I merely followed precedent in doing
so. 1 am iot apologising for that. I am
merely telling you .the fact. What I be
lieve, gentleman, that there 1 ought -to b
no favored class In litigation at all. ,
Dcnia-rratle Plank Analysed.
"This theory that If you weaken ' the
courts tiy fsktrtg away the fnwer rf Injunc
tion In. certain cases you are going to help
the worklngman is utterly unfounded. Th
.person Who Is going to take advantage of
the weakened power pf th courts Is the
man who lit wealth enough to enable him
, (J empIoy acut9 iaWyers to know what the
technicalities are that he can take ad
vantage, and to know the weaknesses In
the armor of the court that he can pierce,
to know when he can ercape thembiect of
the law. In the punishment of the really
guilty person. It Is expedition that helps
the poor man, because he cannot afford
to have his case delayed. .
'And now, gentleman, the final question
Is whether we shall have a Jury trial In
contempt proceedings. I say no. because
we never have had a Jury trial In such
proceedings since the foundation of Eng
lish and American Jurisprudence, because
if you Introduced a Jury trial between the
enforcement of a court's order and the
turning over to the man of what he Is en
titled to under that order, you only make
another step In the di'lay of the court that
denies justice. Now you know what the
Jury trial Is. We have to have and ought
to have Jury trial In the cases ilxed by
the constitution, but not for the enforce
ment of the court's order. Thla rule In the
democratic platform applies not only to
preliminary Injunction, not only to perpet
ual Injunction, but to all ether Judgment
of th court In which the defendant is re
quired to do anything or not to do any
thing.
Would Destroy Power of Coarts.
Before that Judgment of the court tan b:
enforced, If the defendant choose to hold
himself aloof and Ignoro It, there must b
ft jury trial. Why thera must be a Jury
trial If witness Is subppoenaed and wit
ness does not coma Into court to determine
whether the witness received the sub
poena. If you summon a Juryman and he
doea not -come Into court you must hav a
jury to determine whether he got the sum
mons. That la the effect of the provision
In the democratic platform, and I suy with
great respect that such a proviMon strikes
at th power of the court. The utility of
our courts depends on our making th
courts more effective and giving them
power which shall enable and requlr them
to determine their work more quickly so
th justice may not drag on, one, two or
three years, and I am sure that the Intelli
gent working-men of thla country, whan
they coma to face tha question whether
they wish the tribunals for th adminis
tration of Justice weakened to the pulnt
so that th people may laugh at It or
whether they wish them to be sustan d
will forget their particular and special
Interests tn a class of esse and Ilka pa
triot that they are, they will rise to th
point of saying that the administration of
the courts must be held high, that the
power of th court must b held up. so
that they can enforce their own order.

a good road there, which haa a, large
amount of travel. A lone highwayman

will make the third , practical entrance
Into the paTk. With this amount ex
pended by the government the entrance
will be most attractive and should get '
lta proportion of those going Into the

"The Union Pacific has had nearly B0
per cent of the Yellowstone park business
thl year, which Is quite a gain In com
parison to the I or I per cent we had
before the new line waa built Into th

assistant general passenger agent of the

from a trip through the park, "i'o, I
did not lose any money to the highway
man, although we were but a day ahead
of the party which waa held up. The

business than heretofore, but the business
has Increased to a large extent and- we
have gotten our share because of the fine

the products of Irrigated lands for th
fall campaign. An Innovation will bs made
this year and the car will be sent to the
fair at Pueblo and Denver and Into the
Irrigated sections of eastern Colorado.
This is a direct challenge from the Big
Horn basin and tha North Platte valley,
which ar Irrigated sections, to the Irri
gated sections of Colorado. Irrigation Is
highly developed In eastern Colorado and
the purpose Is to show the Big Horn pro
ducts to the farmers who are supposed
to b familiar with Irrigation which will

shown that It Is much easier to sell lr-
