Senator Burkett and his jiarty came
steaming Into town this even nc on
schedule time on hla automobile Journey
down the Platte valley, and delivered an
address to the people upon the political
Issues of the day. He had made a speech
at 5 o'clock thta afternoon at Morrill, and
the sixteen mllea te this place wti made
In record time. Notwithstanding the much
IraveUns; and speaking that the senator
has been doing he seemed fresh and
vigorous, and was very generous In his
expression of appreciation of tr recep
tion that had been accorded him every
where he had been.
He spoke along general political lines
and took a good stiff poke at the World
Herald for a recent article criticising him
In which It also Jibed and ridiculed, as
he said, people who are of foreign ex
traction. He quoted from the World
Heralda. few da a. ago criticising him
for giving heed to a petition which that
paper said contained only the signatures or
persons, th rat RMJority of whom had
"forelfin asmes," and most of which '"were
written so badly as t V he Illegible'" and
by men "unfamiliar' with wrlt'ng." The
senator read an extract from the World
Heral4 which says:
This petition contained the signnture of
wverai nunnrea pursonn. the treat ma
jority of them having foreign nnm. Mont
of the names were written hadlv. and
some of them were entirely Illegible,
written by men unfamiliar with writ'ng.
and with hands cran)..IJ with hard labor.
But Senator Burkett looked at the nnsnv
petition, and thought that he heard the
voice or wie people. ,
It reay be." skid Senator Burkett. "that
the distinguished edito? of the World
Herrfld, Jocund of his ancestry, can scorn
the 'mm who hare foreign names' and
those who 'write with hands cramped with
hard work.' H may thltk that a petition,
because It Is 'mossy with the dust and
grime of those who toll, has no claim to
consideration as" the votpe of the people,
but th(Vn are those, of us who love the
hand that., toils. . there fcre those of us
who cannot fco Ijark tnany generations I
until we trace our own ancestors to some
foreign shore, and we, are not ready with!
the editor of the World-Herald to reject
or Ignore a petition, simply because It con-
tains 'foreign names' or Is written by
hand cramped' with hard abor.
Petrel nera Nov' Americans.
"And that grt-t paper, the World
Herald, was not content with Its fling at
foreigner In general, ' but In another part
of the article specialises and particitlarixea
In Its anathemas - against the 'Russians
who toll In our beat fWds. " The senator
quoted again from what the World-Herald
said: "The portion contained th names
of soma .Nebraskans who are interested
In the sugar Industry and who are familiar
with tha tariff, but. the very great ma
jority of the petitioners were the Russians,
who had Worked In the )eet fields."
"But these petitions were signed by more
than three thonaid''prsOns.' They lived
here in your community and at Morrill and '
Bridgeport and all' over this valley. Some
of them.Uved at Orand Island and North
Platta and other places in the state. They
asked that the great sugar beet Industry
be not forgotten or overlooked In our tariff
legislation. 'To be sure they were inter
ested In the beef sukar Industry. Some
of them had their' every dollar tied up in
land that produces the beet. Others may
look to It An their means of sustenance as
laborers. But whatever their Interest may
be, whether an producer of the beet, aa
laborers In the field, or manufacturer In
the factory, they were entitled to a fair
hearing and not an ignoring simply because
some of them had 'foreign names' or had
'hands cramped with honest toll.'
Tariff on isssr Esplalaed.
"You people realized the Importance of
th beet sugar Industry when you sent that
petition asking for protection to your pro
duct, which the World-Herald has criti
cised. The republican party has been
critrlcised for its sugar legislation, but I
want to submit that In the face of the
history of th sagar -production of all the
world, there Is no nation on earth that
has managed Its sugar legislation as suc
cessfully for the people, both producer
and consumer, aa the I'nited States. It
may be subject to criticism, for I have
never seen anything that could not be
criticised In soma particular. ' But the
fact remains that while some unions have
been losing all tbeir sugar productions and
their sugar factories, and while other
nations like Germany and Austria and
France 'have been paying large bounties
to build up their sugar Industry, our sugar
production has been growing, arj at the
same time our consumers have been buy
ing their sugar . cheaper than any other
people on earth except those of Great
Uritlan, and Its people are doing it tem
porarily at the cost of the complete an
nihilation Of her own sugar industry.
X do' not believe that there is anybody
In thl country who purpuely would de
stroy th splendid prospects that you mtn
In this valley have before you unless it
wer the great sugar trust. Hut uncon
sciously or Inadvisedly, laws may be ad
vocate! that -would 'do Just that ' sort of
thing. The World-Ueraid In this article
criticises the republicans bee. 1 so they re
fused to strike out the Dutch tamlard.
but that Dutch ttandard is the protec tion
that stands between the people and the
producers of refined beet, suk.it, ami the
rheinleally bleached, cheaper grades of
sugar runs foreign countries. That !u'-h
standard Is the protection to every con
sumer "of tugaf In this country against the
fraud of the foreign producer, who would
chemically bleach a lower grade of sugar
and sell it to th people for what It is
not. -
Prt4cllo la larrea.lii.
"I shall hall the day when we can pro
duce within, our i-n territory all the
sugar that we shall need. We rroductd In
this country last year almost tuO.tVoT.oo

MORRILL. Neb., Sept. .-Ppectal.)
Senator Burkett, Congressman Klnkaid, H.
T. Dobbins, editor of the Lincoln News, and
other republican candidates arrived here to
day and the senator delivered the first of
his campaign speeches In the Irrigation sec
tion of the Platte valley. A conference of
settlers had been called at which Irrigation
and kindred topics were the chief subjects
discussed. Th crowd waa large and en
thusiastic Senator Burkett was a pioneer In Irriga
tion and has always responded generously
to every call of the settlers for the develop
ment of this valley, and he was given a
rousing reception here as an Indication of
the friendliness towards him of the people
of this vicinity. People came for many
miles around to a and hear the man, who.
as their represe. ative, had led the fight
against the coiseiatlve east ten year ago
when the Irrigation problem wa In its In
fancy, and who, from that time to this,
has been with them In every emergency.
In his speech today he took occasion to
thank the people for their kind reception
to him and for their generous treatment at
th? primaries, and to congratulate the state
upon the pushing, enterprising bunch of
men there were up here opening up the
valley and turning a desert Into a great
garden. He spoke highly of President Taft
In hla perseverance through criticism and
his success over much of opposition In ac
complishing the splendid legislation of the
last session, and thus sustaining and enact
ing Into laws the policies of his great prede
cessor, Theodore Roosevelt.
"I am proud of all Nebraska," said th
senator In speaking of th part that he had
taken in behalf or Irrigation, "but I tak a
little special and personal pride In this
particular part of the state, for I feel that
I had something to do with making It what
It Is. for I was one of the original fighters
for Irrigation. It does my heart good to
look over this beautiful valley with Its
splendid homes. Its rich farms. Its populous
towns, and think that It was brought about
by the little assistance that the gov
ernment gave to the people through the
Irrigation law. It Is a real live testimonial
to the beneficence of progressive Ideals In
governmental functions. Government aid
to Irrigation I an established fact today
and no man Is found to criticise It, but a
dosen years ago we western congressman
had the struggle of our lives to get It
started against the opposition of our older
and, perhaps, more conservative colleagues
bf the east."
The senator reviewed rapidly th embar
rassments that had come to the settlers
and to the work of Irrigation during these
ten years, and said that the track of the
enemy of such legislation could be found
all along the way. First, there were those
who wanted to load It up with such ex
pensive projects as to make It disastrous.
Then there had come the difficulty of the
settlers In making their first payment of
assessments. Later on the suspension of
work by reason of lack of money in the
Irrigation fund, and last, and perhaps most
disastrous, the holding of settler on their
land for a period longer than was required
to prove up on the homestead without giv
ing title to it, when the government Itself
was to blame for not having furnished the
water.
The senator paid a high tribute to Con
gressman Klnkaid for his, devotion to. the
people's welfare, -and his1 energy In cor
recting some of these evils. "Together we
bombarded the department," said the sena
tor, "until the time of payment was ex
tended from December to March, and I
had the honor of Introducing the bill, which,
although aa passed waa not as good as I
Introduced it. but which, as It finally be
came a law, authorised you to ' transfer
your title and thus to leave your home
stead after you had fulfilled the obligations
of the homesteader, even though the gov
ernment was not able to close your contract
by leason If its inability to supply you with
water."
