Another Sensational Break in Prices

Market Bar of Raying Orders sns
Bears Have Things Their Um
War Big Break Over
Marat.
NEW YORK, Sept. 22. Stocka had an
other sensational break today after an
hour of uncertain and Irregular fluctua
tions. On the decline such Influential
stocks aa Union Pacific, Southern Pacific
and Amalgamated Copper broke H between
sales of small blocks, in some cases only
of 100 shares.
Professional operations on the bear side
were evident, not only In the -matter of the
decline, but in the quick rallies on short
covering. The bulla made no effective op
position, however. In the' form of support
ing orders. Brokers on the floor of the
stock- 'exchange reported tha- market here
bare' of buying orders. iThe violent break
came, however, after some show of re
covery and ot positive strength In a few
stock.
The fall oVr Bight reached 3 in Dela
ware A Hudson, Shi In Louisville & Nash
ville, t In Union Pacific and Illinois Cen
tral, 2', In Anaconda, 1 in Northern Pa
cific, Ureat Northern Ore certificates and
Amalgamated Copper, and 1 In Southern
Pacific and United States Steel.
Apart from political considerations and ru
mors that the federal authorities were
about to Institute proceedings against some
of the large Industrial corporations, Includ
ing the electrical companies, there was no
news to account for the break. Just be
fore noon the market was at Its weakest.
The rapid fall In prices and -the wiping
out of margins created "uneasiness and
added to the heavy selling. Union Paclfla
broke through ISO and there were similar
declines of I to S points in Reading, Amal
gamated Copper, Illinois Central, Louisville
& Nashville,. Buuthera Paoltlo and others.
The excitement In the mode market found
little reflection In the banks and trust com
panies of the financial district. It Is well
known hat speculative Interests have been
borrowing very little money for several
months past. In the banking circles there
waa a disposition to attribute the break to a
reversal of market attitude by some very
rich Individuals whose affairs have recently
beun injected into the political situation.

Platforms Adopted
REPUBLICAN.
We. the republicans of Nebraska In
convention assemble, renew our al
legiance to the principles of the re
publican prt"y. the practical operation
of which has brought to this country
the unprecedented prosperity now en
Joyed. We heartily endorse the national
platform of the republican parly as
adopted by the national convention at
Chicago.
We endorse the administration of
President Theodore Roosevelt In Its
moral and economic aspects, a contin
uance of whose policies will be as
sured lo the country bv the election of
Judge William H. Taft for president
and of Hon. James S. Sherman for
vice president.
We submit with pride to the people
of Nebraska the labors of our t'nlted
States senators and the republican mem
bers of the lower house of congress,
all of whom have endorsed and sup
ported st all tines the policies of the
president. The administration of Oov
ernor George L Sheldon and the other
officers of the state has given to Ne
braska a government of which all citl
sens may well be proud snd which w
commend to the electors of the stwte
as an earnest of the future conduct of
the state government under Governor
Sheldon and the other republican nomi
nees for state office. The record made
by the last legislature was one of er
formance, squaring with promise, where
in every pledge made In the campaign
was fully preformed In the legislation
enacted.
We most heartily commend the effi
cient work of the State Railway com
mission for Its enforcement of the laws
of the last leglRl.iture and the regula
tion of the rates and services of the
common carriers. We commend the
business administration of the finan
cial affairs of the state government
during the last two years, under which
the state debt has been nesrly can
celled, and we pledge ourselves to the
continuation of the strictest economy
In expenditures, consistent with the re
quirements of the state.
We commend the State Board of Puh
lio Lands and Rulldings in rescinding
the rule taking a per ent of the pen
sion money from members of the sol
diers' and sailors' homes, and pledge
a continuation of that policy. We alai
favor an amendment to the laws gov
erning the soldiers' and sailors' homes
so that any honorable discharged sol
dier or sailor may be admitted.
We express our gratification at the
action of the voters of the state at the
recent primary 1n endorsing trie proposed
amendments to the stnte constitution
respecting the Increase In the number of
Judge of the supreme court and the In
vestment of the school funds of the
state and recommend that these amend
ments be adopted by the voters at the
general election.
We favor such amendments to the pri
mary law as experience has demon
strated are necessary to strengtren It I
and make It more efficient In insuring l
popular control of all nominations. ,
DEMOCRATIC.
We. the representative-. of the demo
cratic party of Nebraska, in state
convention assembled, reaffirm our be
lief in. and pledge our support to Uie
principles of the party.
We rejoice t the signs of democratic
victory In sta.e and nation.
We give unqualified approval. of the
candidates nominated and of the plat
form proclaimed by the national con
tention at Denver and pledge our earn
est support to aald principles and the
nominees of said convention. Particularly-gratifying
to the democracy of
Nebraska is the nomination of Ne
braska's first democrat, William J.
Bryan, for the presidency of the re
public an office in the occupancy of
which his qualities aa a statesman will
work for the welfare of our nation, In
measure as his advocacy of the cause
of humanity has challenged the atten

the association haa added $150 for the best
twenty-ear exhibit of corn.' The exhibits
in this department will be retulned for a
Douglas county exhibit at the National
Corn exposition.
The officers of the fair are expecting a
full line ot exhibits ot farm products, al
though this s taking considerable effort.
The vine stuff is scarce this year because
of insects and because of the recent dry
weather. The fruit exhibits should be good
and the floral display will be fine. Tex
tiles and canned goods are already coming
In, with every prospect of a big show In
those lines. The directors do not expect
to have the exhibit In full swing until

police: go a ft eh crooks
Chief Pats His Force to Work Ferret
ing Oat Bad Mem.
In pursuance of Instructions sent by Chief
Donahue to Captains Dunn, Mostyn and
Chief of Detectives Savage, which in
structions were approved Monday evening
by the Board of Fire snd Police Commis
sioners, the detective force will begin,' at
once to Inspect all boarding and rooming
houaes In Omaha and find out the busi
ness of all transients, especially those who
expect to remain In the city during the
next two weeks. Under the Instructions a
thorough canvass will ba made and all
suspicious characters, and any who fall
to convince the detectives that they have
business In the city, will be given twenty
four hours In which to leave.
The chief says he believes In the old
sdage that "a stitch In time saves nine"
and that it is better to clear the city now
of suspicious characters than wait until
the Ak-Sar-Ben festival Is In full swing.
"I expect twice ss many people here this
fall than at any previous Ak-Sar-Ben
carliivul," says Chief Donahue. "With tha
crowds will corns the crooks, professionals.
Situated as is Omaha It will be very hard
to keep them out, as they will camp In
Council Bluffs and South Omaha and come
in Just when the crowds are the largeat.
"Other cities make appropriations for the
hiring of extra detectives during seasons of
tills kind, but we will be compelled to fer
ret out the pickpockets and other crooks
with our present force. We ought to have
a couple of detectives from Chicago, one
from the Twin Cities, another from Kansas
City and one from Denver. Thesu men
would know si crook from their own town
snd could nab him the minute he struck
Omaha. With us, however, many of them
are strsngers. Ws will have to work the
best we csn, that Is all, snd hope that we
will be able lo cope with the crowds and
apprehend all suspicious characters."
Ths chief says he would like to have had
his proposed "sunrise court" established by
the time of the Ak-Sar-Ben, but as the
Fire and Police board has taken no action
he, of course, can do nothing. Tbere will
be a number of "plain drunks" this week
and iict honest laboring man whs will be
seriously Inconvenienced by being held for
the regular sittings of police court but the
chiefs sees no remedy other than his pro
posed sunrise court.
Thirty -five extra policemen to serve dur
ing the carnival were sworn ta Tuesdsy
morning and twenty more will be added
next week.
IN ION PACIFIC ASSEMBLES CARS
Getting Together All lis Isart
Coaches far the A W-Sa r-Bea.
The t'nlon Pacific Is assembling Its
by Nebraska Political Parties for 1908
worth yof the position he now ocruples
In the democratic party. In him we
recognize a man large of heart and
brain fitted In every way for the duties
and responsibilities that will devolve
upon him. .
We pledae the people of Nebraska that
if our state and legislative tickets shall be
successful In this campaign, a democratic
legislature will enact and a democratic
governor will approve the following spe
cific legislation:
1. A law under which the state banks
shsll be required to establish a guarantee
fund, under state supervision -.ind control,
for the prompt payment of the depositors
of any Insolvent state bank under an
equitable system which shall also be avail
able to all national banking Institutions of
this state wishing to take advantage of It.
3. We are in favor of the follow. n
amendments to the present revenue law:
1. A law to provide for the election of
the precinct and township assessors by
the direct vote of the people.
I. A law providing that in the equalisa
tion of the avKcssment by the State Hoard
of Equalisation, the aggregate footing of
the assessment as returned by the various
counties, shall not be Increased.
We condemn the practice -of the pres
ent Stnte Board of Equalisation and
Assessment In raising the aggregate
valuation of the state aa returned by
the vurlnus counties. This act la In
violation of the spirit of the present
revenue law.
. We demand that the railroad com
mission shall be given the power to
moke a physical valuation of the prop
erty of the public service corporations
In the state.
4. The democratic party favors the ex
tension of agricultural, mechanical and
industrial education. We, therefore,
favor a law establishing an agricultural
college in the western part of tha state
and liberal appropriations for the charit
able and educational InstutuUons of the
state.
6. We are In favor of the democratic
nd American principle of home rulo.
We are In favor of enacting such laws
as will give the cities of Omaha and
South Omaha the right of local self
government, and to that end we favor
such legislation as wjll allow these cities
to absolutely control their own affairs.
A soldier s pension Is a soldier's right
and Is and should be his to prise and
to enjoy, not to be alienated by law 1
from him, or by arbitrary rule or som
mand of those officials entrusted with
the duty of superintending and manag
ing the soldiers' and sailors' homes of'
the state. We, therefore, favor the
passage of a law . placing the manage
ment of these worthy public institu
tions in the hands of nonpartisan board
to the end that such management be
removed from the touch of politics, and
that every right In law or Justice be
reserved to those who won the tuition's
gratitude by the defense of the nation s
flag.
We favor the present primary law, but
favor its amendment so as to enable the
voter to more clearly and easily express
his choice.
We commend the work of the demo
cratic and populist members of the last
legislature In forcing the passage of the
2-cent fare law and other reform legisla
tion enacted by that body, i
POPULIST
The people's Independent party still
stands as a fighting fotce ready always
to contend for better government. It
has been the leader In all reform move
ments for the last eighteen years, never
retreating, always holding the ground
taken, and advancing whenever the peo
ple came to Its. support. It haa advo
cated the government issue of all kinds
of money, the government ownership of
natural monopolies, the election of the
t'nlted States senators by the people,
the curtailment of the power of the
Judges to Issue injunctions against labor, -opposed
excessive tariff rales, the con
centrating of wealth- In few hands, a
flucuatlng currency controlled by Wall
street banks, to be decreased or in
creased as - the great stock-gambling
interests demand.
The people's party Is not ashamed but
s: are passenger coaches for use In the
Omaha buslpess during the carnival. The
car aervlce agent -already has thirty-five
coaches lined up, and while the exact time
of the. special tnilhs has not as yet been
announced, tbe ivfffrials have decided to
run a special train- from the west next
Tuesday, Wednesday Srid Thursday morn
ings and to run sufficient returning service
to handle all who wish to return. Inquiries
are now being made from the agents to
ascertain what to expect In the way of
travel to the fall festival.

"THE PALE GIRL"
Old et Knew Coffee Waa The Cause.
In cold weather some peopU think a
cup of hot coffee good to keep them warm.
So It is for a short time but the drug
caffeine acts on the heart to weaken
the circulation and the reaction Is to
cause more chilliness.
There is a hot wholesome drink which
a Dak. girl found after a time, makes
the blood warm and the heart strong.
She says:
"Having lived for five years In N. Dak.,
I have used considerable coffee owing to
the cold climate. As a result 1 had a
dull headache regularly, suffered from
Indigestion, and had no "life" In me.
"1 waa known aa "the pale girl" and
people thought I was Just weakly. Alter
a time I had heart trouble and became
very nervoua, never knew what It was
to be real well. Took medicine but It
never seemed to do any good.
"Since being married my husband and
I both have thought coffee waa harming
us and we would quit only to begin again,
although we felt It was the same as poison
Jo us. ,
"Then wo got some Postum. Well, the
effect was really wonderful. My com
plexion is clear now, headache gone, and I
have a good deal of energy I had never
known while drinking coffee.
"I haven't been .troubled with Indi
gestion since uslg Postum, am not nerv
ous, and need no medicine. Ws have a
little girl and boy who both love Postum
and thrive on It and Grape-Nuts."

proud of the fact that It makes new
paramount Issues" for every preslden
tlHl election, but holding that aa long
aa civilisation endures and organised so
ciety exists the money question Is In fact
the paramount Issue, for upon a sound
money lvm depends the prosperity of
eery man, womsn and child In the
t'nlted States, this year the question
that Interests the people more than any
other Is the guarantee of bank. deposits.
'When that is oird. It will go far to
ward remedying many of the evils of
what ex-Secretary (lege calls "the
worst financial system In the world."
Next after that is the tariff system
under which Americans can buy Amer
ican goods aa cheaply as they are sold
to foreign competitors and consumer.
The party demands that the spirit of
the substitution shall govern and that
this country shall be a republic, and
not an empire with outlying colonies.
Believing . that William J. Bryan,
I among all the seven candidates far
president. Is the best representative of
the principles here set forth snd for
which we lisve so'lonr contended, the
members of the people's Independent
party should vote for him to a man
and do all that Is In their power to
elect htm president of the t'nlted
States.
The people's Independent party re
affirms the position it accepted In HOT
regarding state regulation of freight
rates. The constitutional amendment
the republican rarty submitted to tha
people created three more office hold
ers who liAve no power to reduce
ratea and not even the power to regu
late trains or traffic, and a republican
legislature has refused to pasa laws
In accordance with the amendment.
The only legitimate effort ever made In
this state to reduce freight ratea was
made by a populist legislature and the
maximum freight rate Newberry law
is still on our statute hooka. The re
publican attorney generals have made
no effort to enforce the same, although
the federal court in granting an In
junction a few yearn ago pointed out
now this could be done.
The objections made by the people's In
dependent party two years ago to the pri
mary law still holds good, and we de
mand the amendment then asked for.
We demand a revision ot the road laws
so that a civil engineer can be employed
by each county, who shall be held respon
sible for the condition of the bridges and
roads.
We are In favor of a county option law.
We call attention to the tremendous In
crease In the taxation under republican
rule. The appropriations of the republican
legislature are now In round numbers,
$4.0i)0,ouo, while under a populist administra
tion they were but $2,000.WO. People of this
state should remember that under a popu
list administration the state debt was re
duced WK),0U0 In four years without the In
crease of state taxes on all forms of prop
erty, other than that of railroads and pub
lic service corporations.
We demand the passage of a compulsory
bank guarantee law, similar to the one now
In force In Oklahqma.
We favor a law giving the railroad
commission the power to make a phys
leal valuation of the property of the
public service corporations In the state
and laws that mill give to the metro
politan cities of the state the right of
local self government, and so making
such amendments to the revenue law
as will give back the right of local as
sessment with the various local sub
divisions of the state by (a) providing
for the election of local assessors by
the various townships snd precincts:
- tb) by providing that in the equalisa
tion of the assessment by the atate
board of equalisation the aggregate
footings of th. assessments returned by
the various counties cannot be in
creased. We declare that we are In favor of a
wide-open primary, where every voter
will have the right of voting a secret
ballot, and we also are in favor of hav
ing piatform committee meetings in ad
vance of the primary election and of
having all commltteeen, both county
and state, elected at the primary
election.
v We declare our adherence to the prin
ciple of the Initiative and referendum.

CO-OPERATIVE COMPANY STOPS
Live Stock Organisation Formed by
Hardeek MaeKensle Rained
by Boycott.
KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Sept. 22,-The co-operative
Live Stock Commission company,
wh-h opened a Kanatas City office at the
stock yards in September, 1906, has given
up the fight here and In f)t. Joseph. The
Kansas City and St, Joseph offices will
quit business October 1. The company was
formed by a number of stock growers, with
Murdock MscKenzle of Trinidad, Colo., at
Its head. The plan was to charge $2 a car
less for live stock sold at the yards than Is
charged by the exchange members. Any
profits were to be distributed to the Stock
holders. Live stock exchange members boycotted
the company and refused to deal with It
In buying or selling stockers snd feeders.
This policy of boycotting forced the co-operative
company to quit business sccord-
Ing to a statement of Its officers.
The co-operstlve company filed suits
against the traders st the stock yards here
and Investigations were made by the at
torneys general of Missouri and Kansas.
These suits are now In the courts.
