GOOD CHEER
Chicago, Ill, April "a, 1905.
To The Nebraska independent:

Chicago, Ill, April "a, 1905.
To The Nebraska independent:
With the sale of The Independent to Mr..
Berge it is clearly to be seen that another Tom
Watson has entered the field of reform journalism.
While Mr.. Berge is not a total stranger to the
readers of The Independent (as his writings have
appeared in it's columns) he is new power in
position to aid the cause of reform. His position
of candidate for governor last fall outlined his
ccu, Sc as to the future, and the old guard can
join har DIS with him in the struggles in the future
He is young, active and full of hope the very
elements that needed to fight the political
battles of the future. The Independent under Mr..
Berges conrtol will lose of it's usefulness as
a reform paper. We are glad to see him in the
editorial harness and shall see much good come
out of it. With Watson in the east and Berge
in the middle west the cause of reform has two
salwart champions fully equipped for future CAM
paigns Let the friends of reform everywhere
roll themselves as patrons of these reform papers
Yours respectfully,
j. w. T. KIMSEY.

A Valued Send-OH

The Teller Of York, Neb., last week editorially
had the following:
Let us say word for Mr.. Berge 1t is not
necessary to say anything to any one who has
heard George w. Berge He was candidate
for governor last fall and had 1t not been for
Roosevelts popularity, Mr.. Mickey would not
have known that he in the race. Men OF
all parties voted for Berge. He is the Old Abe
of Nebraska; those who know 3erge say that
he looks, acts and talks like the great commoner.
We want York county to be in the front ranks
in supporting Mr.. Berges paper. The man does
not have it in mind but it means Berge party
in Nebraska the same the people have La
Toilette party in Wisconsin, and Folk party in
Missouri There is no commission any kind
of rake off in it for u.s. We want to see York
county rally around George w. Berge and let him
feel that we are with him with dollars. He
spent his own money in the campaign last fall,
now let us pay part of it back and at the same
time get one of the best papers in the state. Your
dollar will help to print the paper but your mama
on the list will do more good than will the cash.
Bring your dollar to the Teller Office, except any
one who request their names left out of the list.
Publishing the list shows where you stand and
does more good than the amount you pay. Send
him your greetings by being subscriber to his
paper from VOL No. l.

grabber no matter who he is. Make him tired.
make him uncomfortable, make him cross the
street to keep from meeting any one connected
with your paper
The trouble with us has been that we have
been hampered by party politics. Party lines
are fading away. Your paper will be read and
what you say as an Independent, nonpartisan
organ will influence men public questions
and public conditions, where partisan papers
would have no influence whatever And in the
very nature of things you can do better work
as a weekly paper than as a daily. You will
have time to prepare what is to appear In your
columns with due deliberation and reflection.
The daily papers must give the people the news
on short notice and the editorial work must be
more or less hasty. Your paper will give your
readers the essence of the news after the exact
truth has come to light, but your chief work will
be pointing out to the people the conditions In
public life and public institutions, and moulding
and directing public sentiment with view to cor
recting evils and abuses as they are found to
exist
The independent being an established paper
will enable the new management to go about
the main work at once, without the necessity OF
wasting time in laying the foundation. 1t Is to
be hoped that this enterprise will receive the
loyal support of all persons interested in good
government, no matter whether they live in THU
state not. Respectfully,
