REPU BLICAN LIES

MIR. Tibbles has received dozen
or so letters during the last week
from populists in various states who
were very much discouraged and some
OF them very angry because they saw
a dispatch in the papers saying that
Mr.. Tibbles had come out for fusion.
The Lincoln evening dallies OF Thurs
day had great headlines announcing
that the populists had bolted on ac-
count of fusion and that Mr.. Tibbles
had led the bolt. One of the papers
after writing along that line for half
column then gave the following al
must correct report OF what actually
did occur at the meeting where ii
said Mr.. Tibbles had led a bolt:

wArsoN,s SPEECH

While. verbatim report of Watson's
speech at Lincoln before the state COLI
vention is printed in this issue Of The
Independent, and however readers
may be delighted with it, no concep-
ton can be formed of the spell II
cast over the vast audience that lis
tened to it. One must have heard
It. A slight, frail man, every nerve
quivering with earnestness, throwing
all his soul-power into every word
he said, seeming at times that his
very heart strings would break with
a yearning to save this government
from the attacks of predatory wealth
entrenched behind special privileges,
he captured the sympathy OF every
man, woman and child that heard him.
His logic was invincible, his rhet-
oric model for all public speakers
who may follow. him, his enunciation
distinct and clear.
Toward the latter part OF his speech
his strength began to fail and he sat
down in chair. From that chair
there blazed forth such bursts OF eio-
quence as was never heard in Lin
coin before, although the greatest ora
tors of the age have spoken i'll this
university city. Tom Watson, ne is
the greatest leader Of the common

A STRANGE BOLTER

It is perhaps the first time in the
history of politics that man VINO
went before a body of boilers, most
of whom had repudiated conven-
ton, who determined to put out
new ticket and get them to promise
that they would go hcme. and I'M
mediately begin to organize clubs
where every person admitted was to
be pledged to openly support the
party's principles and candidates was
denounced i'll the papers as leading
a bolt"
The truth is, that the editor OF The
Independent told everybody what
would happen in the populist conven-
ton if the program was carried out
which was advocated. And it did hap
pen just as he said it would. II the
plan had been adopted that The In
dependent had advocated there would
now be harmony between the anti
Parker democrats. populists ani re-
publicans who repudiate the present
administration. There would have
been an enthusiastic campaign.
The following is, the resolution that
Mr.. Tibbles proposed and which was
unanimously adopted: k
THAT the counties here assembled
to take into consideration the action
OF the convention in endorsing fusion
resolve that we appoint committee
OF three members to take into cOnsid-
Grafton and devise plan of organiza-
tion to be presented to the people
of the state for straight populist clubs,
which are opposed to- fusion, and to
which no one would be admitted who
would not openly support popuiistic
principles and candidates"
&ccS>cs>&
The Hastings Public Journal says:
LET every honest voter consider we'll
and weigh carefully the welfare OF his
country, before he decides which is
best for the most people, fusion or
populism." The trouble is that the
honest voter will have very little to
do with it. A lot of gilp tongued law
yers and officer-seekers will crowd the
convention, while the honest voter
is toiling in his fields.

an easy matter to prove it. Evidence
like the following is beyond dispute:-
