1t is a matter of congratulate
ton that Gov. Hughes, of New
York, will make two speeches in
Nebraska. Gov. Hughes is one
of the greatest men America
ever produced. He speaks the
Roosevelt language. The ad-
dress made by him at Youngs-
town, Ohio, SO fairly and com
pletely showed the Bryan falla-
cies in their true light that
every fair minded man was COM
PEELED to admit his conclusions.
A prominent democratic lawyer
told the writer the other day
that in his opinion the speech
was the greatest political docu.
ment in the past halt century,
and left Mr.. Bryan with moth
ing to stand on.

Senator Burkett left Lincoln
the first of the week to fill some
speaking engagements OF the
state committee. He expressed
himself as greatly pleased with
the forthcoming trip over the old
First district, which begins at
Table Rock on the oath of Sep
TENDER and includes almost every
county in the district. He says
he proposes making it a visiting
trip as we'll as a speaking trip
and that he hopes to meet all his
friends in the different towns.
His earliest political friends were
in the first district and their cva-
slant loyalty has always been
gratifying to him. He will prob
ably travel IN his automobile, al
though that will depend upon the
condition of the roads, and visit
some towns where he is not even
scheduled for a speech. This
will probably be his only visit to
this section of the state this year,
as other parts of the state and
nation r making heavy de-
mands on his time. The plans
are not yet entirely completed but
he will open at Table Rock on
the 2Srd and on Thursday, Sept.
