PLEDGE LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES

PLEDGE LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES.
The republican conventions that are
now beginning to be held in the va
rious counties throughout Nebraska
are for the most part called not only
to select delegates to state, congress
sional and district conventions, but
also to nominate local tickets. includ-
ing members OF the legislature.
1t IS highly important that in all
these county conventions resolutions
be adopted pledging the legislative
candidates to support and vote for the
nominee of the state convention for
United States senator. This applies
equally to the float representative and
senatorial conventions. which will
nominate legislative candidates for
districts that include more than one
county. In each case 1t should be
distinctly understood In advance that
the candidate for representative or
for state senator will, II elected, cast
HIS vote next winter for senator for
the party leader who represents the
choice OF the republicans of the entire
state as voiced in their state conven-
| tion.
A good form for such a resolution
would read as follows: ....
Resolved, That this convention hereby
pledges its legislative nominees to support
and vote for the candidate for United
States senator who shall be endorsed by
the republican state convention.
The people of Nebraska have
reached the point where they will
tolerate no more senatorial deadlocks
and no more dark horses. They will
want to know where every candidate
for the legislature stands upon the
question of United States senator and
any candidate who avoids or evadei
a pledge to support the nominee oi
the party will be in great jeopardy
of his own election. Under present
conditions, the only way for Nebrasks
republicans to make sure of controlling
the next legislature and electing &
United States senator Is to take the
people into their confidence and eacl
candidate assuring the people beyond
question that he is for the part!

NORRIS BROWNS FOOL FRIENDS
In the preliminary campaign for the
United States senstorship The Bee has
accorded most considerate treatment
to Attorney General Norris Brown In
his quest for the nomination II has
credited him with all that he has done
that is ereditable and given him every
opportunity TO exploit his achieve
ments in the defense Of the railway tax
cases. which constitute his principal
asset and claim for popular support.
But Mr.. Browns newspaper organs
and his indiscreet supporters do not
seem TO appreciate the generous treat
ment he has received from this paper.
They are resorting to the most mallg
nant abuse and downright falsification
in their zeal to tear down Mr. Browns
leading competitor in the senatorial
race.
Instead Of contenting themselves
with laudlng the virtues and achieve
ments Of their preferred candidate,
which they certainly have a right to
do, they are assaulting and berating
Edward Rosewater for all sorts OF
imaginary offenses and accusing him
of being allied with the railroads, al
though he has been fighting railroad
domination all his life and would have
been senator years ago had he been
willing to barter the popular conf

tacks in his press bureau newspapers
he is showing very poor gratitude foI
what The Bee and its editor have done
for him and very little political ssgac

SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN
UnmitiEated Meanneus.

Ashland Gazette Uep).
About as\ marked case OF unmitigated
meanness as we have noticed lately is de-
veloped in the attitude OF the Omaha
World Herald toward Edward Rosewater,
editor of The Omaha Bee and candidate
for United states senator from Nebraska.
1t was planned by Mr.. Rosewaters friends
to give him a reception on the occasion
Of his return from Rome, where he has
been for a number of weeks In the service
Of the Washington authorities in the Inter
national Postal congress There were Sow
eral receptions planned among different
classes of people who constitute Mr., Rose
waters friends. among the rest the Bo-
hemian citizens of the city.
This is nothing unusual; in fact, 1t is
just the proper thing when distinguished
citizens who have been abroad return. II
was desired that the Lyra club, one OF
the foremost musical clubs in the city, be
present at the reception, which was given
at Turner hail. for the purpose Of enliven-
ing the occasion with their inmitable
music. The movement was intended to be
and ought to have been entirely nom
partisan, but such a thing could not be
! tolerated among the smooth political
manipulators who are always Turing the
republican majority of the population with
the siren song of nonpartisanship, and
many of them managing to slip into office
occasionally on this specious plea.
In commenting upon the case the World
Herald says:
This has greatly angered the members,
who object to having the society used for
political purposes While the reception is
being advertised as nonpartisan and demo-
! Gratis are asked to take part, the purpose
! is to boom Mr.. Rosewater for the senate.
A similar line of work is going on among
| the Hebrews of Omaha with the expecta-
tion of making them solid for Mr.. Rose
water on primary day."
| What would the World Herald say II re-
! publicans should assume such an attitude
OF meanness toward William j. Bryan on
his return. not from public service, but
from a pleasure trip around the world
What would these bland "nonpartisans' in
general say?
Yet the fact is perfectly patent to every
one that the object of the proposed demon"
strations is to boom Bryan for the presi-
dency. Republicans are asked and ex-
pected to participate in the honors to
| Bryan and they will do so.
| Edward Rosewater is the peer OF W. j.
Bryan any day. He was prominent in
public affairs in Nebraska years before
Bryan was thought Of
The above is only fair sample of the
unmitigated meanness with which Hitch
cock rewards Rosewater for that seat he
gave him in the lower house of congress
few years ago.

ONE CREDIT MARK.

When a man commits a blunder It
is always to his credit If he makes
amends and endeavors to correct his
mistake. This is also true of public
bodies, including the Omaha Water
board. When the appellate court de-
cided some weeks ago that board had
no right to reduce water rates the
board issued a manifesto to water
consumers advising them against pay
ing the full rates until final adjudica-
tion by the supreme court of the
United States.
The effect of this advice would
have been to make the city responsible
for the difference between the regular
water rates and the reduced rates in
case the supreme court should affirm
the decision of the appellate court.
This might have involved the city in
a loss of from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year, possibly even more. 1t is, there
fore. to the credit of the board that
1t has revised it's first advice to water
consumers and recommended that they
pay their future water bills and the
amounts deducted from them hereto
fore under protest, thus reserving the
right to collect from the water com
pany the excess in case the supreme
court should reverse the appellate
court
