"The Merchants ExcI1nte."

The above caption has been adopted
BY our business men as the name Of an
organization which has been cntcrcd into
mutually by them for the protection Of
/ themselves against class OF debtors who
! insist upon securing all the credit pos
slble, yc, who never worry fof a moment
with regard To squaring accounts or
/ paying any legitimate per cent of their
obligations. In fact the object Of this
organization is 10 shut off tins class Of
dead beats, who get all they can from
one business man then transfer their
trade to another with the express inten-
tion of working him for all they can
secure, and incidentally going the
rounds without thought OF where the
financial burden rests or who must
shoulder the loss The sole object of
the association is to weed these characters
out from among honest debtors who pay
their bills.
The following resolution adopted by
the membership Of the Exchange speaks
for itself. and shows concusively the
reasons for the promulgaton of the
principles Of the organization, giving
the reasons for their joint action and ex-
planning why the compact has been
entered into:
The Merchants Exchange Of Versailles
is founded upon the principal of justice
to all and malice to none. Its object is to
further u mutual protection TO debtors
and creditors alike; TO bar people un.
worthy Of credit from enjoying the
same privileges as those who are prompt
and trustworthy and to further n better
opportunity of regulating the credit
business of this community in general.
IT is not antagonistic to anything just
and honorable, but on The contrary is at
all times ready and willing to assst in
stamping out impositions, injustice, dis.
honesty and rascnlity.

if he knows just where she is at, :"
The recent state convention fixed
things nicely. Despite middle
of-the-road national ticket, the
Nebraska populists returned home
and mixed up with the democrats
despite the opposition of Mr..
Tibbles, the populist Vice-presi-
Dental candidate, and the result
will be another dose of fusion,
however much the democrats and
spoil-blinded populists may at
tempt to explain the matter away
the action OF the democratic and
populist state conventions on the
10th of August were not materi-
ally different from those of fusion
regime of the past eight years.
And the politicians will attempt
to whip the pops into line by the
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1904-09-15
Peter MOrtensen

Peter Mortensen, present state
treasurer and a candidate for re-
election upon the Republican
ticket, was born in Denmark, Oc-
tober Sth, 1914, emigrating to
America IN 1870 settling in
Valley county, Nebraska, and
assisting in the organization of
that county three years latter.
In 1875, Mr.. Mortensen was elect
ed county treasurer which office
he held for nine years or until
1884, at which time he purchased
an interest in the Ord City Bank,
being elected president of that
institution in 1888, it meanwhile
having been re-organized under
the name of the First National
Bank.
Mr.. Mortenseu entered state
politics in 1898 when he was
nominated for state treasurer by
the Republican convention, but,
like his fellow candidates upon
the ticket, failed of election.
He was again nominated in 1902
and elected by a plurality of
more than 10000.
Immediately upon assuming
the responsibilities of his office,
MIR. Mortensen began to plan for
the welfare of the state; he did
not stop at merely planning, he
executed those plans. The
banks which had borrowed state
money at low rate of interest,
investing that same money in
state warrants at higher rate
OF interest, were informed that
unless they ceased manipulating
the state fund in that way the
money which the treasurer had
deposited with them would be
withdrawn at once. The tenn
porary school fund which in for
mer years had lain idle the great
er part of the year was invested
IN state warrants, the same be-
: ing carried in the funds as cash
: items. The result of this simple
eXpedient was to save to the state
| the interest which before had
gone into the pockets of the bro,
kers of Lincoln and elsewhere.
| Mr.. Mortensen has planned sc
wisely that he has kept all of the
state funds at work at all times
and still never has gone too fal
in that direction, or found him
self out of funds when the sam,
