Nebraska Populists Attention;
A Demand for q Conference

Editor Independent: The populists
in 1892 presented to the country a COM
prehensive plan of legislative remedies
for the political and economic evils
that beset us. That Omaha platform
has had a wonderful effect. Today
many of these pop" principles are be-
ing enacted into statues. though it
must be admitted that the legislation
is not always as thorough as could be
desired or backed by as sincere motives
as could be wished. In popular thought
we find the prevalence of populistic
ideas even more noticeable. Principles,
scorned and ridiculed ten years ago, are
today debated and supported on all
sides.
Another phase Of the situation, how
ever, is not SO pleasing to the thought
full populist. I refer to the growth of
socialistic strength in the United
States. Recent agitation has brought
clearly before the people the greatness
of existing abuses and the painful
slowness with which they are being
met. The result is a rich field for rad
icals and denlagogues. The econoclas-
tic spirit aroused seeks to break more
than craven images; it repudiates DEM
ocracy and finds relief only in radical
socialism. This must be met, and at
once. I do not fear socialism in itself
SO much as fear that the inevitable
reaction following its effective promul-
cation would work great harm to the
cause of reform.
The populist has duty. Everywhere
his principles are gaining ground. So
cialism must be met and we populists
are the ones to meet it. We have done
great work in arousing public feel
ing to realization of existing abuses.
We have an equally important duty to
see that that feeling is expressed in
profitable action and not brushed aside
by an anti-socialistic reaction. We
have living principles and harmon
ious party. Have we will to act?
In the line of action, | propose a
mass conference of the populists of
Nebraska. Such meeting should be
held in the mediate future. Bringing
forth national leaders it would clarity
our ideas and show populistic con-
servatism as different from the ultra
radicalism of the socialist as from
the sordid selfishness of the pluto
cracy. The populists of this county,
and those of the state whom / have
met, heartily favor such meeting. 1t

Marx Socialism

Editor Independent: In the current
number of The Independent, your edi-
torial in response to Client on social
ism Is SO peculiarly in harmony with
my views, that am impelled to note
the fact In this brief as simple ac-
acknowledgement of my appreciation of
your strong utterances and logical ar
gument in opposition to the rank ma
terialistic theories advanced by the
Marx school of agitators.
do not know whether you received
in exchange the last number of the
Single Tax Quarterly, published in
New York, or not. | had an article in
that number touching on socialism in
politics as a menace to the peace and
orderly progress of the country. In
that article I treated less ably, than
you have in the editorial referred to,
the moral aspects of the Marx school
in its bearing upon the social ques-
tions of the day and how those of the
George school regard these matters.
II you have not seen the number and
have time and inclination to examine
the subject as set it forth, would be
pleased to mail you copy.
In this weeks issue you again ham
die the subject in way that leaves
nothing to be desired in application.

President McCurdy of the Mutual
Life Insurance Company, has foolishlv
taken what is described as defiant"
attitude toward the New York Legis-
lative Committee which is investigat'
ing life insurance affairs. His refusal
to answer many Of the questions ask
ed him has made a bad impression,
and it is claimed that he has na-
rowly escaped indictment for COLI
tempt. For a man drawing salary
of $4,000 per year he has exhibited,
or at least professed astonishing ig-
norance of some of the most import
ant branches of the business he is
supposed to control and direct.
One of the most interesting parts of
his testimony is that relative to legis
lation. His reluctant admissions have
shown that his company, like others,
have contributed large sums to cam
lobbyists to influence or control leg
islation With relation to the employ
ment of a certain lobbyist, McCurdv
explained that his services consisted
in talking to persons in position
to influence legislation; that many Of
them were laymen and the agent hal
to pay them to sit and listen to him.
When men are paid for listening.
especially if the compensation be lib
eral, tile arguments used are apt to
be very persuasive. No doubt the
insurance business is no exception 70
this rule.
The Examiner correspondent at Re-
no is a dandy. He telegraphed lud-
led story Wednesday night about a
mob moving the Sparks post Office.
But Postmaster Jones claims that ne
and few men hired by him moved
the Office quietly as soon as he could
close up Wednesday night. He says
there was no mob visible in Sparks
that night and that himself and five
men Employed by him, did the work
quietly and decently. Mr.. Jones
statement is borne out by the resi-
dents of Sparks. The Office was NOV
ed from one side of the town to cen
trail location. The change meets the
