wrecked by the broken rail had the
freight not been wrecked, and fortu-
nate also that the wreck was piled up
inside the switches of James, leaving
the siding around the wreck for trains
TO run and thus preventing serious
delay of traffic. The siding was filled
with SNOW and this had TO be shoveled
off, after which the passenger trains

Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1904-10-20
WATSON'S VIEWS.
The Geor ian's Opinion of Roosevelt
and Parker.

Thomas T. Watson, the candidate OF
the Peoples party, is getting great
deal of amusement out of what he calls
the Independent side-show of his own,
of which he is in full militant aggres-
sive control" lie says he respects
Roosevelt and the Republicans because
they know what they want, are candid
in stating their position and fearless in
fighting for their principles. He prefers
Roosevelt to Parker, because the former
lis not seeking the support OF Bryan
Democrats upon false pretenses. He is
not playing II confidence game on the
negro question. He is not attempting
to win ,Ieffersonians by sham adher-
cncc 10 Jeffersonian principles. He is
not in ambush; he is behind no blind;
he stands out in the open aud says to his
enemies: Here | am, Il Republican
who stands pat on all existing conditions:
If you want fight, come on.
Mr. Watson's letter is full of vitriolic
contempt for Judge Parker as Il weakling
and artful dodser. 1t ridicules his posi-
ton on the pension question and says
his pledge to revoke Order No. TS
amounts to saying. Roosevelt did the
right thing, but not in the right way,
ana III you VIII cIoSL hle L Ics4uchI
will do the same thing in the proper
way"
As to the Democracy itself Mr.. Wat
son asks:
who could put faith in the pledges
of the party which has so little unity
of conviction as the National Demo
cracyY
what party ever made and broke 50
many pledges|
what party ever changed its ground
so often?"
What other party ever unloaded all
of it's principles at one quick throw
down as they did at St. LOUISE
Candor compels the answer None y
i remains the party of nothing but big
professions, unfnlflled promises and
pledges.

FOR HOME AND FiRESlDE.
Lincoln Signed Homestead Law-Mil-
Lions Thus become Freebolders.

The Homestead Law was passed by n
Republican Congress-Democrats oppos-
ing-and signed by President Abraham
Lincoln in 1862. 1t has proven to be
one OF the most beneficial measures ever
enacted by a Congress or signed by a
President. 1t has largely populated the
West, up to date, with independent
homecoming citizens Ii opened to i'm
mediate settlement millions OF acres of
public domain, chiefly west of the Mis-
sissippi. Settlers rushed in from the
Eastern States and from Europe. More
than any other influence, it has contrib
uted TO the development of the Western
States and the rapid growth OF the ma
ton.
The Democratic party was true to its
policy of obstruction in this, as it has
been in every other measure intended
for the good Of all the people. The first
bill, introduced in 1859, passed the
House by vote of 100 to 10. The Re
publicans were supported by few scat
tcring Northern Democratic votes, but
the Southern Democrats voted i'll body
against it. The Senate was then Demo
cratic, and no vote was taken in the up
per house. In March, 1860, Mr.. Love.
JOY ISpuilcu lut NEbW lluutSltuu VII,
and it was passed by a vote OF Is to
Go; all of the affirmative votes, except
one, being from the free States The
Senate passed a different bill and there
was conference which finally agreed
| upon a modified bill. This was vetoed
June 30, 1860, by the Democratic Presi-
| dent, Buchanan.
In 1862, when the Republicans had a
| majority of 81 III the House and II in
the Senate, Il new homestead bill was
| passed and signed by President Lincoln,
as stated. The measure was framed by
Republicans and passed by Republican
votes. AT the same session were passed
the acts establishing u Department of
Agriculture and providing for agricul'
tural colleges IN 1864, 1870 and 1877
bills were passed by Republicans giving
Union soldiers special homestead priv
| ileges. These measures encouraged thou
| sands OF soldiers who were discharged
| in 1865 and 1866 to emigrate from the
East to such States as Iowa, Nebraska
Kansas and the Dakotas, in the middl,
| West.
| There are many and strong reasons
| why the western farmers, ranchmen anC
miners should vote the Republican ticket
but the national Republican Legislation
| that gave homesteads to millions i
enough, of itself, to bind the West ire
vocably to the Republican party.
