The commissioners records of
Polk county, Neb., show that many
of the so-called benevolences at
tributed to John II. Mickey were
really benevolences by the county,
and Mickey got the credit. Many
sums which Mickey was supposed
Iy contributing were found after
wards to be charged to the poor
fund of the county.

w. 3. M'NEEL SAYS
MICKEY IS DEFEATED.
Confident of Election He Is
Making Friends Every
where He Goes.

W. B. Mcneil, fusion candidate
for congress in the big Sixth
district, was in the city few hours
yesterday morning enroute to
| O'Neill and points in the district
to the northwest. Mr.. Mcneil,
who is a farmer and rancher, is a
| typical westerner and no one who
has ever met him can fail to be i'm
pressed with this fact. He is per-
sonally particularly attractive.
Mr.. McNeel was born and raised
in Abingdon, Southwest Virginia,
! THE Athens of that state. He
has lived on a ranch ten miles from
North Platte, Lincoln county,
since 1887.
He says his chances of election
are very fattering and that as
election day approaches he is more
and more convinced that he will
represent the Sixth district in
congress.
Il am getting acquainted with
the voters in my district" said
Mr.. Mcneil, land it takes some
travelling to do it. The Sixth dis
trict is as large as the state of In
diana, containing $4,000 square
miles of territory. | am greatly
interested in the development of
western Nebraska and believe that
much of its vast acreage can be
put under irrigation. If elected
to congress | shall advocate the
sinking of artesian wells for irri-
cation purposes, and another thing
as we'll, as | have a firm impress
ion that most of the land covers
minerals. There is every reason
to believe that coal exists under
western Nebraska in quantities
sufficiently large to pay mining
operations, and in boring for az
tesian wells the drills will bring to
the surface what lies beneath.
There are thousands of others in
my district who share in this belief.
If ! am elected to congress |
shall safeguard the interests of my
constituents in every possible
manner. | believe in direct legis-
lation, government ownership Of
public utilities, and the election
,f all public officers by the people.
| am also in favor of larger ap-
preparations for internal improve
ments and less for external, so
that the taxes we pay the govern
ment will flow plentifully and free
among the people. / am entirely
opposed to monopoly, trusts, fraud,
hypocrisy and sham of every de-
scription.
Il am opposed to tariff on lum-
Der. do not believe people should
be freezing in sod houses for the
want of lumber protected by an
unjust tariff.
In the gubernatorial campaign
there can be but one ending. Mick
ey Will run behind IN every pre-
cinct in the state. We have Berge
elected right now. There is no
mistake about it, and as | have
been visiting many communities
during the past few days | know
how things are going.
Il am very desirious of the
election of Mr.. Hitchcock. He |
has made an enviable record in |
congress and he is becoming more |
popular every day all over Ne
braska.'
Mr.. Mcneil will make O'Neill |
his objective point from Omaha. |
He will then visit Boyd county, |
from whence he will 60 to Craw-
ford and intermediate points, Val

force the shatteringo of their aspirations
those who do not believe in the pictu-
re of free country, sound and heal
thy because it is free country builded
though it may be on the crags Of
wave-swept isle; those who believe
that they are bound and fettered by
the over-awing display Of force of ar
mics and squadrons those are The men
who have no right to take part in the
policy of a country, and who should
be thrust aside as weaklings to make
way for those who will dare and do,
and who, like Mr.. Park, who have abb
solute faith the Justice of their cause
and without which all the armies of
the world are in vain and stricken
with a fatal weakness.
The absolute autonomy of the Puer-
to Rican people must be demanded of
the party which triumphs in the
coming elections; and there will be no
need of arguing the question wuth
men who respect and reverence the
doctrines of Washington and the
constitution of the Grand Old Repu-
bile.
For the reason that we are entitled
to civic life of Our own, we should no
longer tolerate an enslavlng tariff
which paralyzes the principal source
of our common wealth. For the rea-
son that we are entitled to autonomy,
we should not permit that odiouS
form of officialdom with its tortuos
and complicated system should despojl
our treasury, supplied by heavy exac-
tions from the tax payers, when we
have SO many patriotic and capable
men cf the country who could homes
tly and economically administer the
affairs of the country.
For the reaeon that we are entitled
to a pers onalty and distinct indivi-
duality, we must not continue to be
governed by officials who do not un-
derstand our customs, and are not in
touch with the life of the country and
unsympathetic with our traditions
and ideals, and lastly, are neither ma
tive to or have anything in common
with the soil of Puerto Rico.
Because we are entitled to the
respect and consideration due to
people, we should no permit without
virile protest that we should be Amer
icanized by force, and that new
language, new laws and new prac-
tees incompatible with Our character
and Our race should be violently thrust
upon us, against our will and consent.
And because we have right to all
of these things, because we are free
men and citizens of a country which
is ST f1cient unto itself for its own
maintenance, whi> h is rich with the
bUuntiful glIts of Nature, we cannot
] 1)nger tolerate the curse of awful
poverty which is withering and killing
our fields and men, nor can we longer
bear the system of colonial slavery,
which bin S with chains the right of
free thought which is ours by divine
and almighty justice.
The local parties who are not willing
to enter campaign for the recovery
of the rights OF our country which
have been withheld from us for so
long, who are no enclined to struggle
for the rehabilitation of the Puerto
Rican personality and nation, should
retire from the light of public conf
dence, for to arrange the terms of sur
render and to make an ignoruinous
of community is never
the part of true men. and no patriot
can ever accept the despicable and
fearsome task of the rights of free
people
