LOUIS r. POST

The editors Of The Independent had
genial hour with Louis F. Post when
he was in the city last week as one of
the orators at the Fairview Fourth of
July celebration. Mr.. Post uses just
as elegant, strong and forceful Eng
lish in his public addresses as he does
when he writes for his paper, The
Public, and his address was what was
expected from man of his great at
tainments. AS a writer, a thinker
and economist Mr.. Post has national
reputation, and thu audience that list
ened to him had rare entertainment.

that from force of circumstances he
had been acting with the Kansas City
democrats, but that he had ,-lways told
them plainly that the moment they
abandoned those principles he would
take to the woods as far as any asso-
citation with them was concerned.
He thinks that the populists have
done a wonderful work in educating
the rank and file of the democratic
party and believes that the principles
of populism have deeper hold on
democratic voters than is generally
admitted. In illustration of that, he
said not long since he was addressing
the voters OF a democratic ward il
Chicago. He told them, and they were
what were called the ward workers,
that the moment the party abandoned
the principles that it had been advo-
eating since 1895 he should take to
the woods and have nothing more to
do with it. He expected that these
men, being democratic workers and
thorough partisans, would resent the
declaration, but to his astonishment
there were shouts from every part of
the hall: 1--WE will, too"
DR.. Taylor is not only a lawyer and
a poet, but he is one of the greatest

nothing will interfere to prevent him

DIR. III. S. TAYLOR

DR.. Taylor, the poet-lawyer, was in
the city last week, being one of the
orators at the Fairview Fourth of
July celebration. DR.. Taylor is a mem
Der of the populist national commit
tee and as full of fight as he ever was.
He still has full faith in populist prin-
clples. He was not in good health and
after he had just opened his address
he was unable to proceed on account
of faintness. His speech was an at
tack on the modern tory and the au-
dience was greatly disappointed when
Mr.. Taylor was compelled to cease.
Afterwards he read two of his poems
to the delight of the audience, one of
which has never been published, and
which is printed elsewhere in this is
sue Of The Independent.
In an informal talk with Dr. Tay-
lor The Independent learned that he
intends to attend the Denver confer
ence on the 9th of July. He said

WILLIAM w. BRIDE

VIM. w. Bride, of Washington, D.
c.. was a caller at Liberty Building
Wednesday and spent short time
chatting with the editors. Readers OF
The Independent will remember the
excellent service he rendered in the
past as special correspondent at the
nations capital. Mr.. Bride is making
a tour of the west, reaching Nebraska
in time to read the Declaration of In
dependence at the Fairview Fourth Of
July celebration. He will accompany
Mr.. Bryan's family on an outing to
Grand Lake, Colo; thence will go to
Hyannis, Neb., for a short visit with
Er. Stark, son of Former Congressman
Stark; thence to Alma, Neb., tc visit
Former Congressman Shallenterger;
and from there he goes to Oklahoma
i'll which territory he expects tc en-
gage next year in the practice of law
and finally on to California
Mr.. Bride related an amusing incl
dent which occurred on his trip from
Washington here. A fellow passenger.
learning that Mr.. Brides hom, is in
Washington, inquired if he knew any
thing regarding the esteem in which
the Nebraska delegation was held at
the capital. Mr.. Bride asked him, to
name the man" and he would do his
best to inform him. The conversation
which followed was interrupted by the
stranger saying, why, that's exactly
what read in the Nebraska Indepen-
dent; Washington correspondent by
the name of Bride told that same story.
Maybe you know him him?'' Bill
Eride-oh, yes; / know him very
well,' answered The Independents
correspondent. "And,' said Mr.. Bride,
in relating the incident, Il decided
that two witnesses were better than
one and did not introduce myself"
AS he views the outlook, the plu-
tocracy aims to nominate German next
year.

HON. TOM l.. JOHNSON

That most genial gentleman, Tom
l.. Johnson, made call at The In
dependent Office last week and shed
about enough of cheerfulness and good
humor to tighten the hearts of all The
Independent force for a week. Old
times were talked over when the edi-
tor of The Independent was in Wash
ington and Tom Johnson was on the
floor of the house fighting the force of
rayenous wolves on the republican
side who were determined to fasten
or the people the money trust, the
tariff trust and all the other trusts.
Tom does not pose as an orator, but
what he said on some of those occa
sions have become household words
among all men who love liberty a.
hate special privileges, while some Of
the oratorical efforts that filled the
house with senator's and other distin-
guished men have been forgotten.
The people know that Tom Johnson
can neither be driven with threats
Tor bought with money and therefore
they all have a sort of a liking for
him.. @. -n....
In his address at the Fairview
Fourth of July celebration he made a
Point or two that will also become
household words during the coming
campaigns He called attention to
Mark Hanna's war cry, "stand pat, .
and said that he did not suppose that
that audience, all of whom were re-
spectacle and honest people, really
understood the phrase as it was a
poker term and they. were not poker
players. When a man drew hand
he sometimes stood pat" when there
were no cards of any value in it. He
Put up a bluff, and that was what
Mark Hannas war cry meant. Then
he called attention to the downfall
Of the republican party since the days
when it stood by Lincoln with his
clean hands to the present when it
stood pat for Mark Hanna and his
poker hand.
Tom Johnson does not look day
older than he did ten years ago and
as far as The Independent is con-.
cerned it hopes he will never get any
older until he has downed every rene
gade democrat, driven the trusts out
of existence and brought to the presi-
dency some men with as clean hands
as Lincoln had.
