LINCOLN', Jan. 8. (Special) The politi
cal developments of the weeU have been
somewhat of a sur ..-. -rue filing of
Hryan's name ns a preferential presiden
tial candidate, while thoutfh, a probable
event, really came unexpectedly when It
was made. The announcement made by
Sir. Hrya;i from tho Carollnas. indicate
that the petition will be ' withdrawn if
thu man who filed it can li Induced to
do fo. Olhcrwlao it is said, Mr. Hryaii
must run whether ho wills It or not. Ilia
friend.- do not anticipate any trouble
aloiiR this lino and it Is expected that
In dua tlu:o tho prenUltiltial Ililng; will
bo withdraw;) and out; for dclcsate-at-larce
to tho dtmocratio national conven
tion will be made in his behalf.
Ne-. loii Klltnw in orprlae.
In the republican camp the filing of
Jess- Newton as a candidate for gov
ernor was a surprise party. It had been
expected that the itovcrnor, fn fact, all
of tho republican officials nerving their
first term, would ro throueh without uny
opposition In the primaries, but the New
ton fliins, taken In connection with the
letter which accompanied It. indicates
Newton's intention of staying in the
race. It does not ap,ttar at present.
however, wllera ho In expecting to de
velop any considerable Gtrenutu, and it
may be mude simply on the Fame, prin
ciple that many a. man places a smalt
sum on a long shot in thn races, hoping
that an unexpected turn of fortune may
land htm in the money.
'I alt OrKunlantioti tirenlns,
Frank C'urrle. secretary of the state
Tnft organization, lias been busy during
the week getting things in shape, and
finds conditions over tho tate oven more
promising than he anticipated when he
started In. The republicans of the state
are unquestionably by a large majority In
favor of the president's renomlnatlou, ajol
with the organization which' Mr. Currle
Is perfecting behind that sentiment the
primary result is not only considered to
be assured but by so large a majority
that all can understand Its significance.
When tho committees, which are to
name delegates to the national conven
tion and electors to go on the . primary
ballot, meet In Lincoln January 15, they
will find the organization work well
along toward completion.
The LaFollette men of the first dis
trict met In Lincoln last week and fixed
up their slate of candidates for the
primaries. They are still talking of a
state wide mass meeting to be held some
time in January at which mon of national
prominence are expected to be present,
but the date has not yet been deter
mined. Flllnic for Slate Offices.
The present tstate officials who are
candidates for re-election have -all of
them filed except .Attorney General Mar
tin and Dr. Wlnnett for railroad com
mlsloner. Mr. Martin has said that he
will file but Is no hurry about It. Friends
of Dr. Wlnnott have said that he would
not be a candidate for . re-election. The
doctor himself, however, declines to make
anystatement.
Among the democrats, A.lJI. Morrlsey
of Cherry county, has Intimated he will
enter the race for the democratic nomi
nation for attorney general. . He has been
county attorney of his home county and
prominent politically In that part of the
state. I
The report that Totn Benton would
mat age the campaign of J. II. Morehead
of Tails City, aspirant for the demo
cratic nomination for governor, certalniy
raised some commotion., Mr. Benton him
self denies It vigorously, and ays the
report came from the fact that lie and
Morehead had simply met In a friendly
way and that as old - friends he had
spoken kindly of the Falls City man on
several occasions. Certain It Is that the
story of the affair came from well' rec
ognized democratic sources which may
have desired to embarrass Morehead.

An Oppressive Trust.
Before the Coffee RoaaterV Association, in -aion
at Chicago on Thursday, Thomas J. Webb,
of Chicago, charged that there Is. in ext"stnce a
coffee combine which is "the most monstrous lm-
position in the history of human commerce."
There is very slight exaggeration about this
statement. It comes very close to being literally
true. There is a coffee combine In Bratil, from
which country cornea the bulk of the coffee used
tn the United States, which is backed by the gor
eminent of Braxil and financed by it, which com-,
pels American consumers, as Mr. Webb said, "to
pay famine prices for coffee when no famine
exists."
The worst thing about this is that the consum
ers of the United States have been compelled to
put up the money through which this combine,
to further cinch them, has been made effective.
There were formerly revenue duties imposed upon
all coffee .entering the United States. Those taxes
were denounced as an Imposition upon the people;
as taxing the poor man's breakfast table, and the
like. The taxes were removed. Immediately
thereafter Brazil imposed an export duttr upon
,.Tt ' " "I
coRee up to tne mil amount oi ine jorincr customs
taxes in this country. Tho revenue which for
merly went into the treasury of the United States
was diverted to the treasury of Brazil. The poor
man's breakfast coffee continued to cost him the
same old price.
But this was only the commencement. The
"valorization" plan was evolved in Brazil.
Through this plan the government, using tho rev
enues derived from the export duties f ir the pur
poses, takes all of tho surplus crop in u season of
large yields and holds it off the mirket, thus
keeping the supply down to the demands of the
market and permitting the planters to receive
much higher price than they would otherwise
have done.
The United States consumes more Brazilian cof
fee than does the rest of the world. We are the
best customers of Brazil, and BraiH buys little
from us. Now Brazil is promoting, financing and
maintaining a trust designed, and working effect
ivalv for the nurrjose. to compel American con
sumers to pay an exorbitant price for the coffee ,

While the sales of Postum invariably
show marked increase year over year, the
extraordinary demand for that well
known breakfast beverage during 1911 is
very likely due to a public awakening to
the oppression of the coffee trust
Such an awakening naturally disposes
the multitude who suffer from tne ill
effects of coffee drinking to be more re

Ecdnomy to one's purse is not the main reason for using
Postum.
It is absolutely free from any harmful substance, such as "caf
feine" (the drug in coffee), to which so much of the nervousness,
biliousness and indigestion of today are due. Thousands of former
coffee drinkers now use Postum because they know from experience
the harm that coffee drinking causes.
