THE GETTYSBURG CLASSIC.

Four score and seven years ago our
fathers brought forth on this continent
a new Nation, conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that all men
are created equal. Now we are en-
gagged in a great civil war. testing
whether that Nation, or any nation so
conceived and dedicated, can long en-
dure. We are met on a great battlefield
of that war. We have come to dedicate
a portion Of that field as a final resting
place for those who here gave their
lives that the Nation might live. 1t Is
altogether fitting and proper that we
should do this. But, in a larger sense,
we cannot dedicate-we cannot conse-
The brave men, living and dead. who
struggled here. have consecrated it far
above our poor power to add or detract.
The world will little note or long re-
member what we say here, but it can
never forget what they did here. It is
for US, the living. rather to be dedicated
here to the unfinished work which thew
who fought here have thus far SO noblv
advanced. 1t is rather for us to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining
before us-that from these honored dead
we take increased devotion to that cause
to which they gave the last full measure
of devotion-that We here highly resolve
that these dead shall not have died in
vain; that this Nation. under God. shall
have a new birth of freedom; and that

His day is marching on.
I have read a fiery gospel writ in Furnished
rows OF steel:
"As We deal with my condemners. so with vo,,

Let the hero born of woman crush the sernent

Since God Is marching on
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall

THE BUGLE.

Where the Southern seas make moan:
And have followed east and west

I have seen the bugler stand
With the trumpet in his hand,
When the winters dawn-light gray
Brought again reluctant day,
Very silent very lone.
With the whole world for his own,
Till he woke IL with note
From the brazen trumpets threat

Then saw old battles fade
Far across the dim parade
And thousand knights went BY
Like moving tapestry;
Old crusaders riding fast
Down dark vistas OF the past,
p Worn and broken In their mail
While the bugle sang them hall

AS within the forts grim bound
Swift the bugler made his round,
Dawn and youth were In the call
That he sent from wall to walt

In the faint light of the dawn;
Battles old and battles new

Now my blood more swiftly beats
Victories and bravo defeats;
Shiloh passes and see
Swing in place battery
With plunging horses, scared and scourred.
BY an undaunted leader urged.
And in that smoke hung, hre-swept place

MUSTERED OUT.

The silky grass is long and green
Upon the rampant old.
The farmer turns the rusted shell
Up from the dewy mold;
And war no longer shakes tho skies
That smile above the South;
The robin woos his sweetheart In
The cannon's brazen mouth.
The trumpet's. piercing blast is stiil,
The shacklei slave Is free:
Unguarded to the sea!
The snowy wings of peace are spread
The tall palmetto of the South
Leans to the Northern pine.
The battered saber breathes of TINA
When fields were won and lost,
The empty sleeve In silence tells
How much the victory cost.
Behold the heroes mustered out!
They sleep In glade and glen.
On mountain top, by river side
Four hundred thousand men.
Beneath the flag our fathers made
They fought for me and you,
And crimsoned with their precious blood
Their honored coats of blue.
Upon an hundred battlehelds,
In victory and in rout.
And in the prisons horrid cells
The brave were mustered out.
The ranks grow thinner. Day by day
we hear the funeral chant:
The gallant bluecoats, one by one.
Follow their leader. Grant.
The battle drums are muffied now
Upon the last redoubt,
And where tho bugle's notes are still
The boys lie mustered out.
Methinks l see the last campfire
Blaze up against the sky.
The angel adds the last brave name
To the deathless roll on high.
They're gone. but still in vision fair
/ see the ranks OF blue
Tha, march in glorious columns in
Jehovah's grand review.

Vote For Weber and Jones

For good and sufficient reasons the
people of Nebraska always feel that
their educational institutions are safer
in the hands of republican adminis-
traitors than in the hands of those who
go to make up the so-called fusion re-
form forces The election next month
will restore republican management Of
the state university as sure as an elec-
tion is held. Omaha Bee
The people who entertain those
good and sufficient reasons" are the
republican administrators and their
tax eating republican associates who
keep up the stop-thief cry of sskeep
politics out of the university" and un-
der cover see that none but republi-
cans are employed as instructors The
"so-called fusion reform forcesN con-
stifute about one-half of all the 'speo-
pie" Of Nebraska-but thus far thsy
have had very little to say about the
management of the university, be-
cause, unfortunately they elected sew
eral spineless individuals as regents.
The Independent has strong hopes
that DR.. Weber and Prof. Jones will
be elected-but if they should be de-
feated. there will be. no restoration"
OF republican management, because
the nominally populist and democratic
regents have been as trucking repub-
iicans actually as any who ever sat on
the board.
Fortunately both republican and
popnlist candidates are strong men.
and The Independent could have no
preferences, were 1t not for the fact
that Messrs. Clark and Whitmore are
members OF a party that is utterly
dominated by railroad Influences and.
therefore, more liable to fall. In ev-
ery way, Prof. Jones and DR.. Weber
are the peers of their republican OPP
Donents. and they are members of q
party that has no standing with the
railroads. Hence, in this fight against
railroad domination, it behooves every
anti-mononolist to cast his vote for
Weber and Jones.

enough to secure funds to meet that
$4,000 Of appropriations and draw
in good sum to apply on the big
state debt. That will mean much
heavier taxes next year, just as they
are heavier this year than last-and
the farmers mus bear the bulk Of all
the increase.
Now, the election of Judge Sullivan
and every other populist candidate
down to road overceer, means the en-
tering wedge to complete overthrow
Of republican extravaganza next year.
Their defeat means approval of the
republican administration
But their election means more than
this. With Judge Sullivan on the SUI
Ireme bench, and ponnlist judges In
the various districts, the farmers may
expect justice in the lawsuits which
are sure to arise over the new revenue
law, the Ramsey elevator law, and
others wherever there may be con-
fiict between the farmers and the
railroads. Why should any farmer ex-
pect skilled railroad attorney. elect
ed to the supreme or district bench
by railroad republican votes, to de-
eide any close question in any other
way than favorable to the railroads?
Why should any farmer expect fair
deal from railroad republican county
assessor and his deputies, all supplied
with plenty Of passes for themselves
and friends?
Mavbe there isn't anything to vote
for in this campaign-but the farmer
who STAYS at home this year will find
1t rather difficult to get enough mon-
ev out of his 1ow-priced hogs and cat
tie to nay the heavy increase OF taxes
which Is sure to result from a repub-
lican victory. And the worst of 1t Is.
that those who 60, must also suffer.

pies Independent or to the democratic

ties is entitled to secofd place and
the other to third place-the clerk can
decide which himself. But he has no
legal right to make one party circle
dc duty for two distinct and separate

allowed to do SO. The matter has
been adjudicated and populists in ev-
cry county can begin an action in
mandamus against him to compel
obedience to the law, fully assured
that they cannot lose.

This is simply repetition of what
Secretary Marsh did last year, and in
the face of a supreme court decision
holding that the form is not in ac-
cordance with the plain provisions and
intent Of the law Secretary Marsh
was represented by counsel in the
case where this decision was rendered,
and when asked why he did not fol-
low the decision, told the manifest lie
that he had forgotten about it. In
view of the numerous expensive law
suits last year over this point, costing
the taxpayers of number Of counties
a good many dollars, Secretary Marsh
will hardly have the nerve to repeat
that threadbare lie this year.
Let us read what the statute says:
s'At the top and left side of the
ballot shall be printed in black
faced capital type, not less than
one-eighth of an inch high, the
