COUNCIL BLUFFS, Ff. 25-To the
Editor of The Pee: In view of the preva
lence of typhoid fever In both Omaha and
Council Bluffs. I feel that It perhaps
might be of advantage to the general pub
lic and tho authorities to know that pos
sibly the source of the trouble might be
located In or through oysters.
Soma years ago theic-waa a similar epl
demlo In England und It was traced tq an
oyster bed which upon examination was
found to be directly In the path of the
sewage from a largo 'town. Oysters, as
you are doubtless aware, are planted In
brackish water and the flow of freah water
from the river often contains a lot of sew
age. Tho bod above referred to had been
planted only a few years and as soon as
the oysters wero old enough to sell were
distributed to different parts of the coun
try and the epidemic broke out coincident
and It disappeared as soon as the bed was

SILVER CREEK, Neb., Feb. 25. To the
Editor of The Bee: If Mr. Bryan has not
forfeited the confidence and, to a large ex
tent, the esteem of the democrats of Ne
braska. It Is not his fault. For how could
they have very much confidence In him In
view of the fact, for Instance, that while
denouncing officials of the trusts for viola
tions of the Sherman act and demanding
their condign punishment, he, himself, was
at the same time guilty of Instigating the
Nebraska legislature to enact Into law the
Oregon plan of electing United States sena
tors In plain violation of the constitution of
the United States? And how could they
longer very much esteem' him when, after
long years of silence on the liquor question
while as a candidate, or a prospective can
didate, silence would seem to serve his per
sonal ambitions, he now announces his
adhesion to county option and prepares to
fight the democrats of Nebraska, whe,
while loyally supporting him for the presi
dency la 1308, elected a majority of the
members of the legislature on the ground
of their opposition to county option?
Perhaps Mr. Bryan thinks that In now
espousing the cause of county option he Is
till serving his own personal ambitions.
That may be . true. It is certain that his
present next season on Chautauqua plat
forms will be more in demand than ever,
and when, the preachers and the churches,
with his assistance, shall have realized
their ambition to gain-political control, of
the country, what thing more natural than
that they should make him, president of the
United States. One thing, however, Is now
certain If never before, namely, that Mr.
Bryan will never 'be a democratic president
of the United States. To my mind it Is
quite clear that to a majority of the demo
crats of the nation Women's Christian Tem
perance union logic in the Women's .Chris
tian Temperance union vernacular (and
that is a proper characterization, of Mr.
Bryan's pronouncement on county .option)
will not appeal, . even' . from the eloquent
mouth of Mr. Bryan.
In Mr. Bryan's deliverance, referred to
above, he says:
"To favor county option It Is not neces
sary that one shall favor prohibition in his
own or any other .county.'"
And then, he proceeds on .the. assumption
that county option is simply giving the
people of a county the right to say whether
they will or will not. have saloons a right
to govern themselves. But that Is a gross
misrepresentation of fact. Even county
optlonists will not now deny that county
option permits . the people of a county to
govern themselves only to the extent of
saying that they will not, have saloons and
does not permit them to say that they will
have saloons. County .option means county
prohibition and nothing else. Mr. Bryan Is
either misinformed or is willfully attempt
ing to mislead. , Any honest scheme . of
county option would provide that a ma
jority might force saloons Inyo a town that
did not want them as well at, to provide
that a majority might keep saloons out of
a town that did want them. True, one who
was opposed to county prohibition' might
favor county option. But none but a
natural born idiot would do so and thus
concede the right of his opponents to gov
ern, being in. a majority, and' at. the same
time surrender the right of his own side to
govern If it should happen to be in the
majority.
Mr. Bryan says: "The record of - the
(last) legislature has but ope blot on It, and
that blot was put there by the liquor in
terests. They controlled enough of the
senators to prevent tho submission of the
initiative and referendum." If the defeat
of that proposed measure was a blot on
the record of the legislature. Is it not true
that the adoption of another measure,
namely, the Oregon plan of electingUnited
States senators, which was, and which was
intended to be, a nullification of a plain
provision of the constitution Of the United
States,' was als. a blot, a much deeper
stain on the record of that legislature?
The liquor Interests are charged with de
feating an embryo act of the legislature of
a state. Mr. Bryan Is undeniably guilty of
beguiling the legislature of a state Into
committing a rape on the constitution of
his country. "People who live, In glass
houses should not throw' stones." But is
It true that the liquor Interests controlled
senators? It might with equal reason be
said that a majority of the voters of Ne
braska were controlled by the liquor inter
ests, which is absurd.' A majority of the
members of the legislature and of the sen
ate were elected chiefly because of their
avowed opposition to county option. They
were elected to the legislature with the full
understanding that they would defeat any
thing and everything that had srfiy prohibi
tion In It. That initiative and' referendum
measure had prohibit! n n 1:; It was pus el
to tho front for that very reason; ht did
not stand on Its own bottom; it was sailing
under false colors and ought to have been
defeated. Except for preacher lobbyists
and well-meaning and misguided women
who Influenced some weak-kneed and sus
ceptible members to betray their constitu
ents, it would have been defeated by a
much larger majority, and the 8 o'clock
e losing law would alto have bt-eyf defeated.
Let not Mr. Bryan think he can lead the
democrats of Nebraska and of the country
into the prohibition camp. They have fol
lowed him loyally, but not b'lndly, and now
ho and they are at the parting of the ways.
He has put his hand to the prohibition plow
and cannot turn back. They will not go
with him, and to them his word Is no
longer law. CHARLES WOOSTER.
