RAILROAD LOANS
ARE NOT LIKED

while no one here had a single chance
to know what was proposed. Second
ly, / do not think that the Govern
ment has any right to lend its credit
to two concerns, l mean those backed
by B. F. Dillingham; and w. A. Kin
ney. Lastly, the idea of Governor
Frear in asking that an act which
was passed for the Philippines should
be passed for this Territory, is just
one more step, and very strong one,
towards our being further regarded as
a possession When such an idea
is disseminated by the Governor what
can we expect?
According to the proposition adj
vanced by Governor Frear, some rail-
road could build with money borrow
ed to the amount of 100000. That
is the Government will guarantee in
terest of not over four per cent an
nually up to $4,000. This would be
very fine indeed for the Kohala line
that is proposed, but why has any one
concern the right to obtain money at
four per cent or perhaps less, when
some other big public improvement,
such as the Kohala ditch, must pay
six per cent. l don't like the looks OF
the scheme at ALL"

But one thing this campaign
has done, and praise the Lord
for it, it has reunited the party
in this county. Former pollti-
cal opponents have been work
ing side by side during the en-
tire campaign. This condition
is largely due to the intelligent
and hard work of George w.
Holland. Mr.. Holland has put
in his entire time working for
the ticket and has earned the
gratitude of every loyal repub.
lican in the county. The fight
has been made against tremend-
Gus odds and the only wonder is
that the ticket was not beaten
worse. The thing for republi-
cans to do is to keep together
hereafter. TO assist each other
in building the party up and not
fight each other in an attempt
to tear it down.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13

In the local contest it seems
generally admitted that our can
didates were beaten by the H.
quor element. There are many
men in Falls City who feel that
the saloon has no place in poll,
tics, and many of these men are
now talking of putting Falls
City saloons out of politics.
Just how far reaching this sen.
timent is and whether or not II
will endure to the next munich
pal election remains to be seen.
Certain it is, however, that by
the fight made this fall the sa-
looms have lost many of their
loyal supporters and have alma
ted many of their former friends.

The defeat of Gov. Sheldon by
the liquor interest is a sad blow
10 the reform element of both
parties. The defeat means much
more to the people than it does
to the governor. Had the re-
publican party of this state a
great newspaper such as the Kan
sas City Star to fearlessly fight
It's battles. Sheldon would have
been elected as was Hadley of
Missouri, jackson and Bristow
of Kansas and Hughes of New
York. The SO called republican
newspapers of Lincoln may have
contributed to the defeat of the
republican ticket, they certainly
did not help it to election.

A JUST

We wonder how many people
ever think, to say nothing of APP
preciating the work the mayor
and council of Falls City are do
ing for the town. Mr.. Abbey
knows of every cent of expendi-
ture being made in the new water
plant. He personally inspects
every piece of material that goes
into the plant and water mains.
He has been and is giving hours
of each day to the loss of himself
and his business to see that each
taxpayer gets one hundred cents
for every dollar spent. Falls
City has had many good mayors
and many good councilmen, but
the present administration is the
most careful and business like the
city has ever had.

ELECTION REFLECTIONS

Ei0EN NJ tSAs@
When the campaign was first
opened the Tribune stated, mo
man has ever been elected presi-
dent of the United States with
out the business interest behind
him.
Political parties may pu t
pianks IN their platforms which
make specious appeals TO class
against class. They may make
the most patent bids tor votes,
as witness the labor plank in
the democratic platform; but
unless the platform as 4 whole
discloses sound business prInci-
pies and promises conditions
consistent with the commercial
welfare OF the people, it will be
repudiated at the polls.
Despite the charm of Mr..
Bryan's personality, notwith-
standing the loyalty of his
tremendous and remarkable fol-
lowing, he has Just suffered the
most crushing defeat ever ad-
m%inistered 10 a presidential cam
didate.
The business interest has for
the third time repudiated him
and his doctrines, and it is
scarcely possible that be will
ever again figure prominently in
national affairs.
Mr.. Bryans appeal to the pub
lie have always been superficial.
His issues are the product of the
hour. He confuses incidentals
with essentials. He deals with
effects not causes. He doctors
symptoms not diseases. His
following, devoted and loyal as
it is, is largely emotional. Much
as was the following of Henry
Clay and James G.. Blaine. Mr..
Bryan has never made a states
man like appeal to the intelll-
gence of the American people.
For this reason the hard headed
business man has distrusted
him. The administration of the
affairs which make for the vel.
fare OF 10000, 900 of people is
not a question of oratory. but a
question of performance. We
doubt very much whether Mr..
Bryan understands a man like
Gov. Hughes of New York, and
we doubt equally whether Gov.
Hughes understands Mr. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan may be a candi'
date two years from now tC
succeed Senator Burkett, and if
he is the republicans may ex-
pect a good fight.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13

Automobiles have come to
stay. But the sad misfortune
which occurred in our city lately
and the numerous other escapes
which they have caused have
created a sentiment which will
either Lead to more careful
driving of these cars and more
consideration for the welfare OF
the public, or failing In this
will lead to the enactment OF
laws which will land careless
drivers within stone walls. The
public has rights which must be
regarded.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13

The defeat OF Gov. George
Sheldon amounts almost to a
political crime. Nebraska has
never had a governor in his
class. His loyalty to the inter
est of the people and his cour-
age in fighting their battles earn
ed him the opposition of every
railroad, every express company
and every brewer in the state.
So prominently did the liquor
interest appear IN this CAM
paign that republicans all over
the state are demanding a spec
ial session of the Legislature to
pass a county option bill. 1t
seems a little strange that the
people should be SO indifferent
to their own interest that they
would countenance the repudia
ton of a man like Sheldon. 1t
seems that if all that Sheldon
has done for the people is not
sufficient to earn their gratitude
then there is little use in trying
to serve the people.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13

Already the factories are re-
Stunning their former activities.
Presidential elections always
depress markets, especially
when the result is doubtful, and
have a tendency to make bust
ness conditions unstable. For
that reason it is fortunate that
they occur but once in each
quadrennium.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13
GOOD TIM ES

Within three days after it was
certain Mr.. Taft was elected the
mills of America reported orders
exceeding S35O,OOO,0 900. Since
election 100000 idle men have
been employed and are now work
ing on full time.
Instead of the business un-
certainty that would have result
ed if Mr.. Bryan had been elected
the nation is humming with bus
mess activity. The next four
years will be years of plenty and
prosperity. No class will reap
greater benefit than the Ameri-
can farmer.
That Nebraska did not contrib
ute to the condition is to be re-
GREETED, but the Nebraska bust
ness man will share in the gen
eral prosperity never the less.
The Falls City tribune., 1908-11-13

If oratory made a candidate
strong, Mr.. Bryan would be one
of the strongest candidates for
president the country has ever
known. Yet the very reverse
is true. He has been proven tc
be one of the very weakest.
Thrice has he been a candidate
for the presidency. His nomi.
nation each time was due to his
oratory. Thrice has he been
beaten and each succeeding
"battle" has been more disast.
rous than the preceding one.
Whether his defeats are more
largely attributable to too much
talk or the want of achieve
ments and stability on his part
is a question for discussion. II
is demonstrated however that a
record of splendid achievements
is more eloquent than an un'
ceasing flow of words.

We shall now have a postal
savings bank. This will be a
step forward in our financial
system. 1t will afford a place
for the people in villages and
communities where there are nc
banks, to deposit their weekly

thrift. While the bankers OF
the country may not all favor

1t is said that every suitable
house in town is now occupied
and that there is a demand for
more houses. This is CRAFTY
ing. If we were only fortunate
enough to have a few industries

thing known as vacant houses,
especially any great number of
them.

b permanent.
