Berge a Corporation Candidate.

1t is a little surprising that
the fusionists who have always
claimed to be opposed to corpora
ton rule are supporting Berge
for governor.
The corporations did every
thing possible to get the courts
to declare the new revenue law
unconstitutional that they might
get out of paying their just pro-
portion of the tax. The state
board of equalization and the
supreme court refused to grant
them their wishes.
Then they turned to the popu-
list and democratic party and got
them to pass a resolution de-
handing the repeal of the reven-
ue law.
Berge accepted the nomination
Tor governor on the corporation
platform and is canvassing the
state under the guise of reform,
when as a matter of fact it is
a campaign of the railroads, the
big insurance companies, the
Omaha packing houses and every
other corporation in the state
that want to have the new law
repealed in order to Shirk their
just share of the taxes as they
had been doing under the old
law. Under the present law the
insurance companies are com.
PEELED to pay two per cent OF
their gross receipts into the state
treasury. Every other corpora
ton must pay like sum on it:
franchise. The railroads have
to pay taxes on twenty million
dollars more than they did unde
the old law. No farmer or bust
ness man can afford to vote TO
Berge or a fusionist for the legis
lature. They are pledged to Dc
for the corporations what tn,
state board and courts refused t,
do. Vote for Mickey and tn
entire republican ticket and keel
the affairs of the state out of tn
control of the corporations.

Willard Y. Mathews, one of
the republican candidates for
representative in this district, re-
sides in Galloway, which has
been his home since 1886, when
he located there with his father,
DIR. A. l.. Mathews, one of the
founders of the town. Willard
was quite a small boy at that
time, and spent the first few
years in Custer county, after
wards taking a short course at
the state university. Since he
came of age he has been engag-
ed in business in Galloway, and
is now associated with his father
in the live stock business, and is
also agent for the Omaha Ele-
vator Company in that city, quite
responsible position which he
has held for several years.
Mr., Mathews is known as a
good business man, otherwise he
could not hold his position as
representative of the elevator
company, which, does a very heavy
business in the grain and live
stock business at Galloway. We
are informed that his services
are very satisfactory to his EN-.
ployers, and that he also enjoys
the confidence and esteem of the
many farmers with whom he ha:
dealings.

us to state that the statement is
not true, He is not only working

Jess Candy for Berge the Corporation
Candidate for Governor.

We notice in last weeks Bea-
can that Jess Candy comes out
in long letter endorsing Geo.
w. Berge, the corporation candi-
date for governor. 1t would be
unkind to suggest that Jess has
a fish to fry and like the darby
with the coon 1t is ground hog
case,its Berge or no fish. But the
more charitable construction to
put on Jess endorsement of Berge
is that he like a great many
others who do not reason from
cause to effect is that he does not
know he is playing into the
hands of the corporations of the
state by supporting Berge and
the fusion ticket. The corpora
ton failed to get the Legislation
they wanted through the repub-
lican Legislature. Then they
sent their best lawyers before the
board of equalization. Failing
there they went into the supreme
court to get the revenue law re-
pealed. Then they went to the
leaders of the populist and demo
cratic parties and had them in
sert plank in their platform
demanding the repeal of the
revenue law, promising their
support in return. Berge is the
nominee for governor on the fu-
sian ticket to carry out the re-
quests of the corporations. AS a
blind he is declaring himself OPP.
posed to railroad passes, thus i'm.
plying that he is not in sympathy
with the railroads.
Probably no class of people
would be more pleased than the
railroad officials if a law was
passed prohibiting granting OF
passes. Custom and circum'
stances compells them to gram
many favors to common classes
that they would prefer not tc
grant. An anti-railroad pass
law would give them an excuse
refuse such courtiSes and they
then would put in employ only
a few strikers in each community
and pay them i'll transportation
and their work would be accom-
plished just the same. a vote
for Berge and fusion is a vote fol
corporation control of the state
of Nebraska. No farmer, moi
business man, day laborer or any
other than a corporation tool car
afford to vote for any of the fu'
sion candidates.

The maintenance of the prin-
ciples of the republican party is
of greater Importance than the
personality of any candidate.
However good a man may be on
either of the opposition tickets
should he be elected, on all ques-
tions of a political nature, he
would be against your interests
and you cannot afford to vote for
him for the sake of personal pre-
ference or intimate friendship.
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1904-11-03

having the faculty of making
friends with those with whom he
comes in contact, we believe he
will make a good representative.
He is well qualified for the posi-
ton to which he has been nomin-
ated, and will have an ambition
while at Lincoln to make a good
record as a servant of the people
who elected him.
There is no reason why w. V.
Mathews should not receive the
united support of the republicans
of Custer county, while in his
own part of the county he will
receive many votes from the
other side.
With the fusionists straining
every nerve to get control of the
Legislature SO they can elect
Bryan as senator to go to Wash
ington from Nebraska to place
obstacles in the way of the adj
ministration of President Roose-
welt, we cannot afford to do any
thing else than to vote solidly
for the entire republican repre-
sentative ticket.

Lincoln County POpulists Protest against
the Nomination or ". b. McNeel,
Parker Democrat, as their
Candidate for Congress,

The following protest has beer
issued by the Populists of Lincoln
county, and is being circulated
and signed by a great many
members of that party i'll Lincoln
county:
eve, the undersigned Popu-
lists of Lincoln county, Nebras-
ka, hereby register our disappro-
val of, and vigorously protest
against the action of the Chair
man and Secretary of the Con-
gressional Convention of this
Congressional District in issuing
certificate of nomination, as
the Populist candidate, to w. B.
McNeel of this county, who had
already been nominated by the
democrats, and assign the follow
ing reasons for such action:
"First-Because it does not
represent the sentiment or will
of the Populists of this district,
nor of even a respectable ma
iority of them. Two men onl y
participated in this nomination,
and they received their authority
if any they had, from conven-
tion attended by delegates from
Dawson and Buffalo counties
alone.
"Second-Because Mr.. McNeel
was, at and before the time of
his nomination, an openly avow-
ed anti-fusion Parker Democrat,
and so stated on the streets of
North Platte Immediately before
entering the convention, where
he was nominated on that very
issue, the convention giving very
positive expression of the senti-
ment mo fusionist need apply.
The first question asked regard
ing every candidate by those UNI
acquainted with him, when his
name was presented, was lis he a
Pop? and the next is he in favor
of fusion?' and they showed very
plainly they had no use for either.
In his speech of accept ance Mr..
McNeel emphasized this senti.
ment and announced that he
would make vigorous campaign
for Democracy and that noblest
Of Democrats, and most eminent
jurist, Alton B. Parker.
"Third-Because we esteem il
an insult to the intelligence and
sincerity of every Populist in the
district to ask or expect him to
vote for any such candidate COM
mittee as Mr.. McNeel is to that
very plutocratlc element to com.
bat which the populist party was
organized.
ITO give this protest the
greatest possible effect we here
by pledge each other that we
will not only refrain from voting
for Mr.. McNeel, but will make
every vote count two in support
of this protest by voting for Hon
M. p. kinkaid, the Republican
candidate, and we recommend
and urge our Populist bretherr
throughout the District to adop
the same policy"

TRAIN CRASHES INTO TEAM.
Wagon Demolished, Horses Killed But
Occupants Escape Death.


The passenger train from Spokane
yesterday morning crashed into a
team and wagon near Pennington,
Wash, killed both horses and serious
H injured 1s-year-old girl, A farm
er named Ellis was driving and the
other occupants Of the vehicle consist
ed Of his wife and three children.
The engineer declares he whistled
for the crossing but the people in the
vehicle were bundled up to protect
themselves from the cold and did not
hear the train. The wagon was de-
molished and the horses and people
hurled several feet. How any of
them escaped death is hard to ex-
plain.
The train was stopped Immediately
after the accident and members of
the crew carried the injured girl to a
nearby house and a physician was
summoned. She received long cash
in her scalp and it is thought one of
her legs is fractured. One of the
horses was instantly killed and the
other expired few minutes after the
engine struck It.
