STRIKING AT A TRUST AND HITTING A
FACTORY.

In Nebraska City Wednesday night
W. J. Bryan made a speech on trusts
that had a special local significance. for
at this place is located one of the big
factories of the National Starch Com
pany, which now has monopoly Of the
starch business in this country,
The Argo starch factory at Nebraska
City was established by local people in
1887 With a capital of 100000; it has
since employed from 200 To 800 people
continually. paying from s25O.0Oo to
100000 in wages annually, consuming
100000 bushels of corn and producing
100000 worth Of starch. The company
also has several side plants of lesser irl-
y portance for the manufacture Of oat-
meal, hoHainy and other cereal foods.
About one third of the population of the
perity Of the enterprise, and many OF
them hold shares of ITS stock To the
farmers of that section it is especially
important. as il consumes an average

day in the year. which is ali supplied by
S local producers, ana turns it#iEt0 thirty

markets. 1t is the largest Manufacture

Now, as it is understood in New

Dr. Embden. prominent Brooklyn
physician has recently returned TO his
eastern home from an extended tour
thru the western states, where he made
it a point to visit the German clubs and
singing societies, i'll which he takes an
active interest. He says that he found
no detection from the republican par
ty. On the contrary he says there is a
general feeling of resentment among
German-Americans against Bryan and
the democratic leaders for presuming
that they could be fooled into voting
the democratic ticket by the buga boo
of militarism. He does not think that
5000 votes west of the Mississippi

changed by the democratic platform
and Bryan's speeches.
