"AURRAA FOR BRYANT"

of the Nebraskan by the democrats
two years hence and his election.
Mr.. Watterson says;
"The republican party is nam.
moth trust; it is the greatest of all
the syndicates. 1t could not, if it
would, mend any of the abuses
which have grown up under its
administration. There must be a
complete change of parties in the
government, and no matter how
attractive the president may ap'
pear in the character of reformer
or how successfully he may force
bis party to accept him or defeat
in 1908, there is prevalent belief,
which may prove irresistible, that
Mr.. Bryan has served his probation
and earned his reward; that in his
person stands an actual and visible
victim of all that is wanton aud
criminal in our politics; that, with
increasing years and study and
travel has come increasing wisdom;
that, in short, be can be trusted to
take the helm and to steer us away
from the breakers Of gang and
graft politics, having its head

situation heartily, and it proposes
to labor earnestly and increasingly
to make Mr.. Bryan's election an

A SAD HOME COMING

This will be one of the happiest
and yet saddest weeks in the year,
in all the years, to the Kentuck-
ians who have wandered from the
old Bluegrass state and are now
retracing their steps to visit the
scenes of their childhood, TO JOIN
in great celebration of the fact
that they were born in I'm old
Kaintuck." This "home coming
week" has been looked forward to
for months by the Kentucky ex-

tons, meeting old friends and rev.
cling IN the multitudinous hospi'
talities for which their native state
is so justly famous.
But alas, "pity, tits, tits trne,"
these sons of that beautiful South
land are doomed to bitter disap-
pointment. They will find the
warm welcome, the hearty hand
shake and the kisses and fond en-
dearments of true affection, un.
dimmed by lapse of years. They
will not be disappointed in the
royal wealth of Kentucky hospl-
tality or in the beautiful women
and fine horses and lovely scenery
of the bluegrass region. They
will listen with enraptured senses
to the sweet and honeycd SEN
tences that fail from the lips of
orators whose "fit words und
heavenly eloquence" melt the
hearts and ennoble the souls of
men. All these joys and more
will be theirs without cost or stint,
but nevertheless, the hearts of all
Kentuckians will be heavy with

TAX DOOGING

withstanding the fact that Judge

pcatedly rendered the full amount
of taxes legally assessed against
them, and the only dodging done
is refusal to pay illegal assess
ments made against them
"Eyery self.respecting citizen OF

ings and left the county because OF
the belief that they could not get

record that out of a certain amount
of mortgages assessed in the years
1904 over one fourth of the
amount returned was assessed
against one man; while the
amounts outstanding would have
been increased many times over
had the records been examined
and all mortgages equltably as
sessed.
"These so. called tax-dodgers are
the men who have given their best

Leader.
Of course the Leader was not
aware that it was publishing such
glaring untrutbs that it has made
itself ridiculous with all its readers,
for il was given the above by one
of the heeIers OF tax x-dodger.
During the past three years there
has not been man in court on
tax case who has left the country.
1t is true there was one man sued
but he has no intention of leaving;
he is thriving and doing well here.
We ask the Leader TO give the
uames of those "good men of mon
ey and influence" who have sold
ont and left the country. 1t is
true that one man Of money has
left the country because he says
he has been unjustly treated but
his name has not been on the as
sessment roll for two years with
his consent, at all; neither has he
paid any taxes for the past two
years. His name is not on the
assessment roll this year, at all,
though he has many thousand dol.
lars invested in this county, aud
some land.
There is not one word Of truth
in the assertion that more than
one-fourtE Of the mortgages were
assessed to one man, Every
mortgage ou record was assessed
aud all remained upon the assess
u.ent roll that were not Offset by
the owners liability. If these
men the Leader is sympathizing
with have money us it says they
have. why should they not pay
taxes on ity
If the Leader really desires the
facts IN these mortgage assessments
and the methods used to defeat it,
they are easily obtainable, and 1T
now owes it TO the public to ascer.
tAip and publish them.

agitation ever waged, an agitation
that was as successful as its lines
were original. Davitts work was
successful because at the outset he
adopted plan of campaign that
won the respect of his foes, even
though they had no sympathy with
its purpose.
As his life had been devoted to
his people, so were his last words
for his country. This farewell
