DR.. Bear. He IS a pleasant gentleman. But
Just thiukof IT, my friends. you are called
upon 70 choose between one OF two men who
shal hold the second Office 10 your GIFT Can
" DC possible that z man who fought 20 do
stroy this nation can BE- elected 20
hlgh ONCE: 80, never say

Bear say republicans can never
su omit 20 that, at cast they yyill prevent II
from becoming "A fact. OF course they gill
su Dnit 70 the will Of the people whateyert II
Is, but Thomas !. Majors deserves better Of
the people Of Nebraska, for he was agalIaht
and brave defender when the union needed
defence, aud Dr. Bear was Il Citing for the
overthrow Of that union. Now which will
you take my frends' You viii elect Colonel
Majors AS hcuteua1tgogernOr Of this state
Tor he deserved yOgr support.
You have also here your can dilatC for ueIt
congress sman. He has given you plan
statement Of his stewardship and has shown
you what he has done for mis- cOustitu-
enis have been fayor4oly impressed
say 10 that there has been no man
in my recollection syh1 has served more faith
fully than George W r. Dorsey He Is one
Of the hard working members Of congress.
No one has ever been more active or careful
than he has been always at work in benat
OF thousands Of his constituents. II Euttcrly
impossible for a mem Der 20 satisfy all his
people. II IS impossible ] say, but when they
labor 10 do the best they can for their people,
they deserve tho support Of their cOusti-
tuency. ! believe Mr. Dorsey viii he your
next congress ssrnan, for he deserves your sup
port. I believe he will be reelected aad sent
back by the vote Of the people. This much
take pleasure ia saying 10 behalf Of these
! candidates
This is most remarkable campaign. I

ment has entered into it which has been IN

the republican party. Slander and false

This Is true in regard 70 the Mckinley
tariff bill. / wish to ado that the measures
| Of that bill have been most grossly isrepre-
| sented and mis-stated 10 the people; It seems
they would stop at nothing to accom- p.ish
| their purpose.
There are two parties, one called the demo
cratic the other called the alliance OF indie
! pendent II seems they have different Il ameS
to adapt to themselves IN different places. II
has been very interesting and amusing to
observe how kindly the democratic party has
been 10 the alliance party, how they have
fondled aud codded them and said kind
things 10 them for months past keeping this
party in line and using II 70 acconp.is this
purpose, knowing that the existence Ofthe
alliance party must result, il it has any ef-
feet at all, iu the electIng Of the democratic
ticket, If that thing is possible, That Is the
only W aY it cln De brought about. The ALI
ance people are used TO accomplish h that pur-
pose andIt Is strange 10 observe the blind
ness of the alliance people and that they don :
see it They will find it out when the demo
cratic party passes into the promised land, IL
they ever reach there, The door will
be shut against these alliance peo-
pie who have helped them. They will
be on the outside looking over into
the promised land while the democrats reign.
But alliance friends, If there are any here,
! ! hope there are. won't you feel little mean
then when YOU see the repu ocan party de-
feated. 10 which YOU have belonged aud under
whose banners you have marched TO victor
les in previous years when You were . mem
| Der OF that party that saved this nation in
order that you may i've in it and enjoy the
high blessing Of American citizenship. when
all that You have or hope to abe to have
came to you by the republican organization.
| When YOU see that party down and defeated
through your instruneltalities won't you
feel little mean Well you ought 20 feel
that way. But won't there be wailing and
gnas hing OF teeth among you when You see
these old democrats enjoying the fat and fruit
mittance. Now there are va
rious questions before you, but they
generally turn upon national issues
in this canvass. There are persons
going up and down the state claimin : to Oe
reforIners, neglectng state affairs, and dis
cuss. or try 10 discuss, national issues-the
tariff, banks and currency. When Ihaye read
some OF the speeches made by these men
kem, Powers and ThomPSon-I have been
amazed TO think that men in this enlightened
age should proclaim such de.usive theories,
! Here Mr.. Powers proposes -hat the United
States government shall issue $50
to the owner Of loo acres OF land at
. per cent interest The sum Of that
would amount up to thousands OF billions A
great money policy il Is 10 issue monsy just
as the money was issued IN the confederate
states without dollar OF gold or silver tc
