The Democratic Ticket.

AS was generally conceded,
Judge Parker of New York, was
nominated for president. His
nomination was secured on first
ballot. His strongest competitor
Col. Hearst, only received ia
votes.
The nominee for Vice-Presi-
dent is Henry G. Davis of West
Va. He is said to be a railroad
president and a national banker
and is a multi-millionaire. In his
younger days he served a term in
the Virginia Legislature and was
member of the United States
Senate two terms, 1871 and 1898.
He is now eighty one years old
and can not be expected to dc
much but contribute of his mil.
lions to the campaign fund.
Judge Parker notified the con.
vention by telegram that he wa:
in favor of the gold standard ant
if elected he would stand fol-
gold. This was hard blow or
the Bryanites, who had laboret
so hard and succeeded in elimin
ating the gold standard planl
from the platform.
Neither the nominees nor tn
platform is satisfactory to tn
rank and file of the democrati
party. While Parker suits tn
gold democrats of the east tn
platform does not and the demo
Gratis of the west are not please
with either Parker or the plat
form. The general dissatisfat
ton should and doubtless will in
crease the republican majoritie
both east and west.

The Electric Railroad.

Last Thursday night about
sixty of the citizens of Broken
Bow assembled at the Court
House to meet the railroad COM
mittee of Arnold, to hear report
of the progress made on deter
mining the feasibility of the pro-
posed electric line of railroad
from Candy to Broken Bow.
The meeting was held under the
auspices of the Business Mems
Organization of which Mayor
Apple is president.
Mr.. Jacob Miller of Arnold,
who is chairman of the commit
tee on promotion, and Mr..
Holmes, the surveyor of Denver,
were present and discussed the
various phazes of the enterprise,
Among the citizens of Broker
Bow, talks were made by Messers
A. h. Humphrey, DR.. C. Pickett,
Judge II. M. Sullivan, r. G,

Moore, +, M. Rublee and S. ],
T,onerUan and othera


Lonergan and others.
The surveyor estimated the
road could be built for $4,000
mile and at no place would the
grade exceed 81 per cent. He
estimates the dam could be built
for $4,000 in the South Loup,
capable of furnishing 200 horse
power. He estimated the cost of
the road would not exceed two
thirds the cost of standard road
and that the expense of running
about one tenth.
A committee of three, Messers
Humphrey, Lonergan and Rublee
were elected to act with the gen.
eral committee in the prospective
work.
Surveyor Holmes left for Dem
yer Friday morning where he
will complete his figures regard
ing the cost of building and
equipment of the road. When
this report is received, another
meeting will be held at Arnold
to further plan for the construc-
| ton of the road.
There seems to be but little
doubt but road of that class
would be fessible and a paying
investment. If properly planned
there is but little doubt but the
project can be financed. Broken
Bow stands ready to finance her
proportionate share of the pro-
ject and we believe the other
communities to be benefited are
ready to do the same.
1t is only a matter of a few
years, at most, when electric lines
will weander through Custer
county to every thrifty commun-
ity as does the telephone now.
A line from Candy to Broke n
Bow will fully demonstrate the
enterprise practicable and other
lines will soon follow.

The county of Howard has a
bonded indebtedness of $23, 900
and the board of supervisors have

Four years ago the republican
party declared in favor of the
gold standard and won against
Bryan's free silver theory. Now
the democrats see it is a good
thing and have nominated a
candidate for president who en-
dorses it. They now denounce
President Roosevelt. Will they
not endorse his great statesman
ship four years hence as they do
Lincoln and Mckinley now.

Whatever may be said against
w. J. Bryan it can not be said
successfully that he is not a
power in the democratic camp.
With great odds against him he
succeeded IN modifying the dem
ocratic platform so as to rob it of
its most offensive position against
his monetary views.

1t is the pride of every Ameri-
can that this country is today
the leader in the worlds civiliza-
ton, progress and power. Is it not
worth while for the voter to re-
member that this splendid state
of affairs has been brought about
by the wise administration of
Mckinley and Roosevelt. What
has been achieved by democratic
rule?

The democrats have succeeded
in developing an other Jonah in
their man Parker. He was very
quiet until he heard that the
convention was about to swallow
him. After it had knocked out the
gold standard plank, he could no
longer keep still but boldly as
serted his confidence in the gold
standard for which David Hill

Neither the nominees nor the
platform of the democratic party
are satisfactory to the populist
element that have been flirting
with the democrats for several
years past. They will now as
sert their manhood by supporting
a man of the people, who not
only stands for principle but for
the best interest of the common
people. That man is Theodore
Roosevelt, the republican nomi-
nee.

The country has not yet for
gotten the great financial disaster
of Clevelands administration
from '93 to 90 and none but the
hide bound partisan of demo-

to see his man Friday, succeed to
the presidency.

says that Almighty and not the
republican party is entitled to
credit. But unlike the whale
with Jonah, the democrats were
unable to get rid of Parker and
they are forced to take him with
his Cleveland and gold standard
tendencies whether they want to
or not.
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1904-07-14

The republican party can ex-
pect the vote of the farmers this
year, because it has furnished
better prices and better markets
Tor their products during the re-
publican administration than
ever before. But the democrats
are not expecting the farmer
vote, but will depend upon the
plutocrats of the eastern states
and the democrats of the south
to gain supremacy.

VanSant.
About 300 people from Ansley
attended the celebration at Bro
ken Bow on July 4th. The
weather during the day was all
that could be wished for, but a
heavy rain storm at night, to-
gether with late train service,
made that part of the day very
disagreeble. In spite of this, our
people report having enjoyed
themselves immensely. The en-
tertainment furnished the large
crowd for the days amusement
was highly appreciated, and
great credit is due the citizens
of Broken Bow for their excel
lent program. The beautiful
park in the public square furn-
ished plenty of shade and rest
for the tired and weary.
Sargent Leader
w. G.. Dilsaver's little boy was
seriously injured at Taylor on
the 4th. During the ball game
a ball accidently struck him in
the face and mashed his nose
and cheek bones in. The doc
tors used every means to care for
him and at present he is in a fair
way of recovery.
The people of Custer county
have reason to be thankful, as
we have never had better pros
poets for bumper crop. Small
grain such as spring and winter
wheat, oats,rye and alfalfa are as
fine as were ever grown in the
state and while corn is not as adj
vanced as in some seasons it
promises to be an enormous yield
with favorab BILE weather from now
on. If eastern people could look
over our farms now, special
coaches would be needed to bring
in the land seekers.
Mabel Hall returned home
Thursday of last week from a
years study and work in the
Baptist Missionary Training
School of Chicago. The course
of training and study in this
school embraces two years, and
Miss Hall expects to return after
her vacation and complete her
work. This institution is for
home missionary work, and is
largely attended by persons from
all parts of this country and
from other countries. It is a sad
commentary on republic only
1913 years old, that free men and
women have so degenerated that
home missionary institutions
should be needed; but the con.
dition is real, and the demand
for such work is everywhere ap-
parent. If political, social and
industrial conditions leads tc
this degenercy, then our coun-
tries truest patriots are those
who re-enstate the fallen, and by
sacrifice remove the shame of a
corrupt social condition.

The republican party found an
empty treasury in 1897. See the

several districts are J. Il. Arthur
of Comstock, G. H. Thorpe of
Broken Bow, ]. H. Mcclure of
Arnold, and G. Hiser of Mason
City. Three republicans and
one populist is the political COM
plexion of the members whose
terms expire with this year.
The members who hold over are
Geo. Greenwalt of Elton, Jos.
Fennimo1e of Cliff, and A. Fonda
of Oconto.
Two populist and one republic
can hold over. This situation
makes it matter of special in
terest to republicans that no
candidate should be selected in
either of these districts whose
election is doubtful. While each
OF these districts gave republican
majorities for the regents from
II to 118 last general election it
does not follow that any one that
may aspire to nomination in
either of these districts can be
elected. In local politics the
popularity of the candidates often
go farther than party loyalty or
business qualifications. This be-
ing the case not only the business
qualifications but the popularity
of the candidates chosen should be
carefully considered by the dele
gates in making their nomina-
tions. The success of the party
is of greater paramount than the
personal interest of any man.
| The best interest of the party
should in every instance be con-
sidered. The republicans can
elect in each of these districts if
these principles are Iadheared Ito
in making the nominations. In
districts where the nominations
are to be made by delegates, the
delegates chosen Should canvas
thoroughly the standing of each
candidate and agree upon the
one about whose election there
is no question. Select one who
can poll the party strength and
his election is assured.
The REPUBLICAN does not de-
sire to dictate in any case the
nominees farther than above
stated, but in order that the
voters may be. informed, an in
justice to the several candidates
we deem it best to give the names
of the republicans who are men,
toned as candidates in the sever
al districts. In District No. 1,
John Scott; No. 8, G.. H. Thorpe,
A. d. Bangs and G. r. Luce;
No. S, ]. H. Mcclure of Arnold,
Fred Drum of Galloway. In
District No. 7, Mr.. Hiser, the
present incumbent is the only
one we have heard spoken OF
generally, yet he IS not an active
candidate, preferring that his
constituents be free to select
who ever they regard best.
In each of the districts, except
Broken Bow delegates have beer
chosen, but the conventions have
not yet been called. AS Broken
Bow district is composed of but
- one township the custom ha:
been to name the candidate fol-
supervisor at the township caucu:
at the same time township officers
are nominated. In this way
every republican voter has al
opportunity to express his pre-
ference for supervisor. The Bro
ken Bow caucus will be called il
time for all to be notified and il
the meantime they can be max
ing up their minds on thei
- preference.
