Dirllic took ADVANTAGE of his o,,m,rc,,ts
and devoted most of his time to Insulting and
lampooning me and MIR Webster and i'm.
posed upon crodulous and emotional au-
dienco by libcous nucndos for which he had
no proof and Interpretations of what had been
said by us during the debate lie had the au-
dacity TO ocall in question the reliability of the
statistics which l had quoted by in
timating they were manufactured for the
occasion. AS u matter of fact every citation
made 10y me was either from official records
in my possession and within reach or from
letters and tclcgrams sent to Inc by state Of
hCers, sheritfs, police officers, county and
city clerks of the various counties in this and
other states. He purposcy distorted Mr.
Wcbstcr's statement regarding the number
of insane in this state in the face of the fact
that tho Official figures had been quoted both
by Mr.. Webster and myself in previous
speeches. And he knew that he was imposing
upon his audience in accusing Mr. Webster
of falsityiug the record.
With II knowledge that he would be proved
lIoeler he reserved his attack on the Busi-
ness Mems and Bankers association
and called them Gummers and beats
Whoh NOBODY could contradict MN
there. Every iutclligent citizen of
NGDraska knows that this association com
prSes among Its members tue most reputa-
bic and responsible business men in the
state They are not only men in good finan-
cia standing, but men standing high socially
and morally in the communities in which
they reside
