YOU KNOW--WE KNOW

Proper Organization and Educational
Work Will Elect the Entire Ticket
In Nebraska This Fall.
AS a reader of The Independent you
know that taxes have been nearly dou-
bled during the past two years. You
know that the cause is to be found In
the senseless waste and extravaganza
of the last two or three republican
legislatures. You know that the last
republican legislature appropriated
nearly million and a half OF dollars
more than the last popullst legislature.
You know that during the short per-
iod of fusion rule Notwithstanding
some minor shortcomings the state
debt was reduced more than six hum
dred thousand dollars. You know that
for these reasons and others too NUM-
erous to mention that every small
property owner and every sane BUSH
ness man interested in his own welfare
should support the popuiist ticket this
fall. You know that those men who
know the truth about existing COndi-
tions in this state will support the
populist nominees. You know that
the surest and most economical meth
cd OF teaching them the truth is to
get them to read The Independent.
You know that it prints the truth
about everything-that those who
read it can be depended upon to vote
and vote right
We know that II the proper amount
of educational and organization work
is done the entire populist state ticket
and majority OF the legislature can
be elected this fall. We know that It
is to your interest to help in this edu-
cational and organization work.
Will you help in the work? VIII
you help NOW? Will you help to
teach the truth to five or more OF your
neighbors? Will you get them to sub
scribe for and read The Independent
for five months? II you do they Will
vote and vote right. To make 1t easy

cational subscriptions. Five months

TO THE DEMOCRATS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.
The Albany convention was dis
appointment The platform is meaning
less. The section of the state which
furnishes democratic majorities is
misrepresented despite the protest OF
it's delegates The convention adopted
an ambiguous platform and pledged
the democracy of the state to candi-
date whose political views can be sur
missed only from the character OF his
SPONSORS. The majority OF the conven-
tion registered the will of leader
who has been repudiated by the peO-
pie.
We warn the national democracy
that candidate who has no principles
or does not declare them and stands
on a platform of platitudes cannot
carry the state of New York and does
not deserve success. The good OF the
nation and the common honesty re-
uuire that the national democratic
platform shall express the purpose OF
the party clearly and so define its
policy with reference to present issues
that it cannot be misunderstood
We hereby call a convention OF the
democrats of the state in Cooper I'm
ion on the 18th day of June, 1904, at 8
d. IN. to protest against the action
of the Albany convention and to ap-
point delegation to present the
views of the meeting to the national
convention in st. LOUIS, July 6, 1904
Our purpose is solely to protest against
the action of the Albany convention.
The meeting shall have no authority
and is not designed to promote the in

Members of the Senator's Family Told
That There Was No Hope,

The story of the day in Senator Hannas
illness can be told in two words-watchins,

members of the family have been at his

end which they were told at that time
would come in few minutes. They waited
hope.
The fact that the senator has held on
has beer the cause of wonder and amaze
ment. At periods of half an hour through
out the day the silent watchers were in
formed that the end was but few minutes
off. yet the patient continued his hold on
life as if with grim dc termination to win
out, although 1t does not for a moment ap-
pear that he can do so.
The nervous tension and strain in and
around the sick room, offices and lobby Of
the Arlington Hotel is telling on everybody
Secretary Cortelyou stood at the steps
leading to Senator Hanna's apartment for
more than two hours, anxiously awaiting
the news that 1t was believed would come
at any moment. In the lobby were a large
number of prominent men, and Private
Secretary Dover's Office was filled with anx-
ious friends.
Gov. Herrick left the apartment shortly
after l o clock, believing that the end was
a lew minutes away.

Hanna has ned out has been the cause for

2:5o p.m.-Dr. Osler informed
Gov. Herrick at 2 :4o that Senator
