Vindication.
The unanimous decision of the
Nebraska supreme court, affirming
the unanimous decision of the three
district Judges in Lancaster county,
that the plates for republican pres
idential electors on the official bal
lot belong to the Taft men and not
to the Roosevelt men, who were try
ing to hd possession of them under
false labels, is both a triumph for
honesty and decency in politics and
a vindication of our election laws.
By this decision the bull moosers
are frustrated in their deliberate at
tempt, aided and abetted by disloyal
confederates among the republicans,
to seize and use the machinery of
the republican party against the re
publican standard bearers ' and to
steal all straight party votes cast for
Taft and count them for Roosevelt.
It is. gratifying to know that the
republicans of Nebraska have a right
in law, as the have in morals, to
vote for their; candidates for presi
dent and vice 'president as repub
licans, and that the voters of a party
cannot be wrongfully deprived of
this right no matter how , many or
how few in number they may be.
With all the republican candi
dates for presidential elector stand
ing for the national republican
ticket, it becomes the duty of Ne
braska republicans who' wish to per
petuate their party and uphold the
principles and policies embodied in
the republican national platform
and typified in the republican stand
ard bearers, to cast their votes for
these republican electors, leaving it
to the third termers, with avowed
purpose to destroy the republican
party, to vote their own bull moose
ticket. '.'.
Incidentally and irrespective of
the result of the election, credit is
due to the militant republicans who
have fought this fight for republic
anism from the start, and. the law
yers, Hon.. John L. Webster, A. W.
Jefferis and their associates, - who
prepared and presented the legal
assets of the case. '

It is certainly gratifying to gather

Nebraska. poMesses extraordinary de
posits of pumice. Practically the whole
state Is overlaid by natural deposits of
this substance, In all stages of consolida
tion, from fairly solid rock to the finest
dust, Piimlce Is a Volcanic product, and
Its presence In Such targe quantities in
Nebraska and some adjoining states is
taken to bo evidence of former volcanic
activity in that region. It is produced by
the rapid expansion of ga.s in' lava, due
to piidclm release of pressure, which

great distances by wind and deported in

, Of course, if the whole state of
Nebraska is overlaid by natural de
posits of pumice, which can be con;
verted into profitable commercial
uses, we will not be particular about
the location, of the extinct volcanoes
from which the 'substance ' was
erupted nor inquire too closely how
far it has been transported by the
winds before taking up permanent
abode on our prairies, nor even why
while making its aerial trip the
pumice decided to stop here rather
than go on further. What we do
know, ,.. however,, beyond dispute is
that Nebraska pumice is chasing
dirt the world around.

It will not be denied that the sen
ate committee investigating cam
paign funds has brought to light a
most formidable array of important
facts, revealing', not - alone total
amounts, but Individual Bums with
the names of contributors. In some
notable cases, 'indeed, has been. di
vulged the modus operandi of enlist
ing certain gentlemen with plethoric
purses in the respective causes; the
delicate details of approach and per
suasion and finally of the touching
process of separation, itself., .,.
All this has been both entertaining
and instructive. , But is that all?
Friendships have been sundered since
this Inquiry began. Bitterness and
acrimony have been engendered. Men
have burled harsh names at each
other, breathed out anathemas, ut
tered incriminations. It has been a
tense period In our politics. Lines of
feeling have been etretched taut. ,
Now, after the investigation Is
over, what? What have we probed
Into all these state secrets for? Are
we going to abolish the old way . of
financing campaigns If so, with
what as a substitute? Or shall we
adopt the suggestion of one eweet
dreamer and abolish campaigns al
together, leaving the voter to exercise
his own. unir.structed Judgment?
' No, we shall not do thaf in a demo
cracy stressing the importance of
popular education ' as ours does.
We may find, an Improved method of
financing campaigns, but we shall
not. do bo at the cost of, dispensing
"with the hustings. That Is an Ameri

Why Telegraphers Are Scarce.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, la., Oct. 22,-To
the Editor of The Bee: , Some few days
ago I read that the Omaha public schools
were placing telegraphy in their school
course, the course to be paid for by the
railways because "telegraphers were
scarce." ' , "
Now do they make any sort of an ex
planation as to why telegraphers s are
scarce? Don't you think It would , be
Just a little fair to the average boy that
he should know a little about what it
really means to be a telegraph' operator,
especially I rt railway service? :
As usually represented it's short hours
and about an average of,JS0 or $90' to
begin with, when the truth of the mattei
is that the average railway operator re
ceives an average of 100 per month and
works ; nine to twelve hours. " The' law
says nine hours, but if the time is divided
so as to be called a "split trick" it can
be made twelve hours. -
Another point to consider is "school
operators" are mighty poor ones. Usually
he must , be able to help with station
work, 1. c., something like this: Help sell
tickets, make expense bills,' check bag
gage and help handle It (only very good
sized towns have a regular baggage
agent) some railways handle cream
sweep the station, keep the lamps clean,
and, oh, yes telegraph.
Say, if you don't believe this Just go
out over the line and .'ask a few of the
boya But you ask. what about dis
patchers? Ask them how long and how
hard they worked In order to be proficient
enough to attain that position and the
munificent sum of $125 to $175 per month
according to location.
And where will your operator get his
station learning and experience? No
from the agent you can believe. He's
got his hands full with his own Job even
if he wanted to teach someone else to
help lower his own wages.
I am writing from fifteen -years in the
business in five different states with two
of the best roads in the middle west. 1
am considered a good man, in fact, the
best in my line, yet I work twelve hours
at hard labor for the great wage of $130
and handle express in the bargain.
Does this look as though telegraphy anl
station work were an enticing business
to learn? ONE WHO KNOWS.
Thlntta Them Dangerous Tendencies,
OMAHA, Oct. 22,-To the Editor of The
Bee: The first vote the writer hereof
ever cast wai for Abraham Lincoln down
In the forests of Georgia while carrying
?, musket for Uncle Sam In defense of
he union, and he has continuously
voted the republican ticket ever since
and expects to vote for President Taft
at the coming election. But there are
others who are pretending to be ie
publloans and seeking republican votes
who are trying with all their might and
main to disrupt and destroy the repub
lican party, and there are others who are
seeking the votes of both republicans and
followers of Roosevelt, the one the anti
pod to the other.
Many republicans like myself are
anxious to support republican, but are
not willing to aid any candidate to
office, who is furnishing aid and. comfort
to the greatest advertiser of himself the
world has ever produced and whose
avowed belief la not only revolutionary,
but more dangerous to the country than
was slavery prior to I860. I refer to the
recall ot decisions and of Judges. The
effect would not only be to place the
courts in the political arena much worse
than ever before by forcing then to con
stantly keep their ears to the ground in
order to catch every passing political
breese, but would result In placing them
absolutely In the control of the so-called
trusts, big corporations and monopolies.
To 4Uutrate, suppose such were the
law and upon the petition of IB or 20 per
cent of the voters of the state or nation,
a vote of recall of a decision or of a
Judge should be submitted to- a vote 'of
the people, -and a man of moderate means
and of moderate political Influence
Should be drawn Into litigation with one
of these Mg trusts or corporations, say
one of the railroads of this state and
the court should decide in favor of the
Individual rightfully but which involved a
question vital to the Interest of all rail
roads, how long would it take them to
secure a petition of recall and force an
eleotlonT Having secured the recall
election, they could and would employ the
ablest and most influential men in all
the nation to go before the people and
present only, their side of the question,
and they could and - would secure the
ablest am' most influential newspapers
and magaalns In all the land to advo
cate their sllv what show In such con
test would the Individual have? It would
more than bankrupt him. It would
literally destroy him. But, on the other
hand, suppose the court, out of fear of a
recall, should unjustly decide In favor
of the trust or big corporation, how would
the man ot moderate means secure the
requisite signers to his petition for a
recall? Or, having secured the recall
election, how would he be able to cope
with these great concerns. Now the
voter must know how those who are
seeking his support stands upon these
vital points.
Then again, Roosevelt favors legalising
these combinations and controlling them
by a commission. . The constitution of
the United States was formed for the
very purpose of protecting the Individual
In his right of property and of his per
son. Equal rights and equal protection
Is the knot which binds the whole fabrto
together. To this end, the constitution
vested in congress the power to regulate
commerce with foreign nations and among
the several states. It was to secure this
freedom and equality and protection that
the so-called Sherman v AnU Trust Act
was passed, and it was against evils that
had afflicted the people In Its hydra
headed form that this law denounced in
the simplest and embracing form: and
it Is this law that Roosevelt and his

OXFORD. Neb.. Oct 2L-To the
Editor of The Bee: The quandary
which voters will have to meet In
Nebraska Is whether to cast their vote
for a democrat for United States sen
ator, or for a candidate who has been
honored with office the last twenty
years by the republican party and who
shows his appreciation by trying to em
barrass the administration while con
gress was in session and by publicly
slandering the party as under the con
trol Vf bosses who were taking, away
the rights of the people, slandering the
party organization officials, calling them
frauds and robbers, and slandering one
of the best of presidents, who Is ' not
only trying to magnify the party's rec
ord for business honesty and progres
siveness, but who is making good as a
fearless statesman under the most try
ing circumstances. Mr. Norrls has done
much to put i the party In Its present
embarrassing position, ' especially in this
state! Instead of Joining Governor Aid
rich in the request that the Roosevelt
electors resign from the republican
ticket he Issued a decree that Roosevelt
was the only legal nominee of the re
publican party and that Taft was a
pretender. I feel my confidence In G.
W. Norrls has been misplaced and T re
fuse to believe he is longer a repub
lican or worthy of that party's support.
Mr. Norris preaches that partisanship
should be abolished; then after securing
the nomination for senator as a repub
lican, he bolts the head of the ticket
and 'receives as the price a second par
tisan nomination of the Roosevelt, Flinn
and harvester trust combination. ,He
preaches against deception and maneu
vers to get his name twice on the bal
lot, representing parties diametrically op- :
posite. He preaches the sin of demo- i
crats playing polities In congress ana
that we are without hope if they suc
ceed in the election, when his record
shows he played with the democrats
whenever he could embarrass the admin
Istratlon, and has missed no opportunity
to prejudice the voters against the re
publican organization, thus assisting
democratic victory.
He declares bosses should not nominate
presidential candidates, and though one
boss- declared the candidate "shall be
me" and falling In his demand of the re
publicans, he nominated a new party,
named its candidate and the complexion
of the delegates that should sit as
dummies in his convention while he
spoke the articles of faith for his plat
form. Norris is supporting the boss
made candidate and in turn receives the
support of the bosses" political machine.
He preaches abhorrence ot political
thteves, yel does not condemn progres
sive electors who are willing to steal
republican votes. He is insistent 1p
charging fraud and theff against the re
publican committee, convention and
president on evidence that 1 not one
half of one-sixteenth as conclusive as
was produced againBt Mr. Norrls, a few
years ago, on a charge of election frauds

all ought to vote for him, because he

Ideals of citizenship and political right

Where the witches are making their tea

All the world over, and climbs the stairs,
And goes to a wonderland of dreams,
Where nothing at all is Just what it

The great' procession takes up its way.
Where, throwing their faded flower

Little savages tire of play;
Though they have no stairs to climb at

And go to sleep wherever they fall.
By the sea's soft song and the star's soft

NEBRASKA PRESS COMMENT.
Stromsburg News: Take it from us
this Is no time to dilly-dally. Vote for
Taft and see that prosperity abides with
us.
Beemer Times: A correspondent wishes
to know what 4s the color of a bull
moose? White In the south, biaca in
the north.
Wlnslde Tribune: No man who Is not
for Mr. Roosevelt must get the votes ot
the mooser believers is the edict, but the
Taft men are expected to support every
man on the ticket, regardless of the fact
that half of the candidates make It a
point to Insult the president and deride
his followers. A surprise Is in store for
certain people.
Teoumseh Chieftain: American farmers,
will not be party to any scheme for the
defeat of an administration which has
been so pre-eminently an era of agricul
tural prosperity. Any change from a
period so satisfactory to the fanning class
would be fraught with danger and the
farmer is too wise a business man to
adopt any policy which would make pos
sible a change, since a continuance of the
Taft administration will mean a contin
ued participation by the American farmer
In the general prosperity of the nation.
Friend Telegraph: Suppqse that Roose
velt should succeed, in carrying the elec
tion next month, which Isn't possible. He
has no' party behind him. What could he
accomplish that would redound to the
good of the' country? What good can re
sult to .the voter who really1 throws a
vote away on this Insane rush for office
on the part of Theodore Roosevelt? Poli
ticians may step into office, but in order
to carry any weight with them they must
have a party behind them or nothing can
be accomplished. v
Plattsmoujh Journal: "Wouldn't It make
you cuss to have some long-eared Jacka
nape rear up on his pedal extremities and
declare that ' any man who won't oome
over to the bull moose party Is not a pro
gressive? Most of the leaders In the
democratic party were shouldering arms
for the progressive cause when some of
these other fellows were merely serving
as wet nurses to a political microbe with
'out form or substance. There are thou
sands of democrats and thousands of re
publicans who are as honestly progressive
as Sny man with a set of antlers sprout
lng.frOm his shoulders.
Central City i Nonpareil: The decision
of the Roosevelt electors to remain. on
the Republican ticket Will cost Roose
velt as well as the state ticket several
thousand votes. Taft men. Incensed at
what they believe to be A theft of their
rights, will go to Wilson In large num-
