Football.

Paris High School and Bridgton Acad-
envy opened the football season Saturday
at North Bridgton with tie game,
neither side being able to score.
Paris High had little the best of the
argument during the whole game, but
although three times within striking
distance of Bridgton's goal were unable
to put the ball over the line.
The defence of both teams was ex-
ceptionally strong, and the lines
although Bridgton outweighted Paris
were very evenly matched. The lineup;

visiting Mr.. Whitman's mother, Mrs.
Rizpah Whitman, and his sister, Mrs.

10 New York. The machine is marked
on the sides, Franklin. San Francisco
to New York" 1t is a ten-horse power
four-cylinder gasoline air cooled ma

had a l5-gallon gasoline tank put in In
stead of the other. Mr.. Whitman
companion on this trip was G. S. Carrls
of Syracuse. They made the 4,5OO
miles from San Francisco to New YORK
in few hours less than So days. The
previous record was 81 days. Mr.. and
Mrs. Whitman will return soon to their
home in California.

boom for M. F. Harrington.
Any one Of these three gentlemen,
as it seems to The Independent, would
make an admirable governor; any one
of them ought surely to defeat the
present incumbrance -or is it iii
cumbent'? Judge Holcomb has served
the people of Nebraska two terms as
governor, and the record he made for
economy in expenditures has never
been equalled in the states history.
AS a matter. of fact, Governor Hol-
combs administration Is the basis
upon which all calculations. and COM
parsons are made. And everybody
knows his ability as vote-getter.
Judge Stark has served the people
of the Fourth congressional district
six years as their representative i'll
congress, and with such ability that
nothing short of republican tidal
wave could dislodge him. The Har-
rington boom, coming from a repub-
lican paper, need not be considered
seriously. Michael's record, with one
exception, is a uniform refusal to al
low his name to 60 before a conven-
ton for any Office whatever, and 1t IS
extremely improbable that. he would
permit it this year.
Notwithstanding the merits of the
candidates presented by our fellow
newspaper editors, The Independent is
inclined to believe that the populists
of Nebraska are not without other
available gubernatorial timber fully
up to the standard requirements.
There must come time. In the very
nature OF things. when those who
have served long and we'll cannot be
drafted" again. and younger men
must take up the burdens. Hence,
with the highest regard for the can
dldates OF our fellow editors. The In

consideration OF Nebraska populisls

Kearncy county.

III many readers OF Inc independent
knew what trouble their carelessncss
is causing the management by not
paying up when they are delinquent,
they certainly would not delay longer.
A reform paper that must depend al
most wholly for its support upon sub
scriptions, is not like a plutocratic
paper that gets all the trust, bank
and great corporation advertising.
What a plutocratic paper gets from
subscriptions is an infnitesimal pal
of its income. They send out thon-
sands of copies free as every we'll
posted populist knows. But The In
dependent can't do that. 1t MUST get
its money for subscriptions or it cant
exist. Therefore we say please listen
to this plain statement of facts ard
no longer put of sending in what you
may owe on subscription. BY looking
at the figures on the wrapper you can
see how much 1t is. We try our very
utmost to make the paper as inter-
esting and valuable as it can be made.

roader" of Indiana, The Independent,
remarking upon the probability that
a considerable portion of the populist
delegation from Kansas would be
avowed Hearst men, said, parenthetic-
ally, that there was much more Hear st
sentiment among the mid-rOaders at
st. Louis than among the fusionists.
In reply the Indiana man expressed
establishment. He had not head
Hearst's name mentioned in his COM
mittee, except in derision. The INDIE
pendent was surely mistaken. 1t
could not be.
The Independent was not mistaken
and confirmation came rather un-
expectedly. Following closely upon.
the heels of Tom Watson's letter 20
Samuel Williams, wherein he advised
Independent action, believing there
never was better time for
straight, fearless fight upon both the
old parties came Walson's letter 10
the Atlanta News, wherein he declared
that if he were in politics he would be
for Hearst.
That was the signal for Milton Park
of the Southern Mercury to enlarge
the space he had heretofore SO skill
fully given to saying kind words for
the millionaire editor, that very few
Of his associates had any suspicion
that Park was for anything or any
body except straight middle of the
road course and populist for presi-
dent But The Independent was not
deceived. 1t had read The Mercury
carefully and had some extraneous
evidence besides. Park and The Mer
curry will be for the nomination OF
Hearst at Springfield if 1t can be ac-
complished-paste that in your hat.
And mark it down that he will have a
Texas delegation to do his bidding at
Springfield
Mr.. Hearst has also the support of
10 A. Parker, chairman of the allied
peoples party. Mr.. Parker's comments
this week leave no doubt as to that
His club organization will be used
to promote the nomination of Hearst
at Springfield.
Mr.. Parker's statements as to Wat
sons position would indicate that be
has information that Watson has
withheld from others-or is guessing.
Mr.. Watson told Mr.. Williams that
he could aid with his pen and advised
straight, fearless fight on both old
parties. by all means make the
effort" he said A few days later lie
averred that if he were in politics ne
would be for Hearst, leaving the in
ference that he is not in politics. :
The only logical deduction seems to
be that Watson would aid with his

on both old parties with Mr.. Hearst
heading the populist ticket. And it
seems evident that both Park and
Parker are working with this end in
view.
The Independent denies no man the
right to favor any candidate he
chooses, but it regards this running
after candidates who are not pop
ulists as violation of the spirit ci
the Denver conference and The ST.
Louis meeting. Mr.. Parks "honah"

the good work now being carried on by
the labor unions is deleterious 10 the
best interests of the community. II
has been stated by the opponents Of
union labor that San Francisco is a
union-ridden town. For the sake OF
argument let US grant that assertion
and then see whether or not that fact
has tended TO increase or decrease the
peace and prosperity OF the city.
In the past two or three years wages
of workingmen were truly much higher
than before Their condition has been
improved and when you improve the
condition Of the wage earners OF
community you begin at the founda-
tion for improving the conditions OF
that entire community. 1t can safely
be stated that labor is the basis
of a country's greatness and the wage

ment and her prosperity. The only

found fighting IN that direction
The open shop policy, therefore, on
the part OF the employers is, TO my
mind, extremely foolish and will not
tend toward bringing employer and en-
ploye closer together, nor will it re-
suit IN adjusting differences complained
of by either side unde the present in
dustriaI conditions. There is but one
way, 10 my mind, by which this can be
brought about and that is not by the
employer refusing the employees the
same right he asks for himself, namely,
TO organize, but both sides should
thoroughly organize and recognize each
other as such. Then when questions
arise affecting either side, representa-
tives should meet at the round table
and satisfactorily adjust such differ
ences and not, as is proposed by the
employer, declare war upon the union.
