JOKE ON ROSEWATER
Omaha Bee Editor Scores Bryan for
Statement That Proves to Be Part
Of Republican National Platform.

Lincoln, Oct. 3.-There was much
amusement at Fairview on receipt Of
Omaha papers today. In yesterdays
Omaha Bee. published by Victor Rose
water, member OF the republican exec
utive committee and head of the re-
publican publicity bureau. there was
an editorial criticizing In vigorous Lam
guage AN extract from a supposed
speech of Bryan's on the tariff ques-
ton. The words complained of in the
editorial were: "In all tariff 1egisla-
tion the true principle is best main
tained by the imposition OF such du-
ties as will equal the difference be-
tween the cost of production at home
and abroad, together with reasonable
profit to American industries"
In regard Ito this the Bee stated
stated editorially:
"Nothing prettier in catch-silM lines
has been offered In this campaign. The
most hidebound standpatter in the
country can accept that as satisfac-
tory and the rankest free trader can
find delight in 1T. The declaration
means simply nothing. Attempt to leg
fslate along tlrat line would simply
open the way ito interninable wrallg-
ding as to what constitutes O reason
abel profit, for llair-splitting OH wages
Of one industry, the price Of new ma
teriaas on another, rebates and draw
backs on a third and so on thru the
list of thousands of articles that are
now on rthe tariff revision list
at Bryan's direction, would
serve only to halt industrial and COM
@mercial progress and keep business url-
settled during his term of office" This
mornings World Herald shows the
words complained of are not part of
any speech Of Bryan's, but a part Of the
trust plank of the republican platform.
When Bryan's attention WAS called to
the matter he. said:
II am very much surprised that
Rosewater should have attempted to
misrepresent my position. A good many
unfair things have been said.a but moth
ing more unfair than that said by Rose
water. To accuse me of using the
language Of the republican platform is
an outrage and he ought to apologize
for this injustice and explain to his
readers that the language which he
criticizes was taken from the republi-
can platform and not from any speech
of mine. Rosewater is right. however,
in making fun of the language, and in
saying that the declaration means
simply nothing" hope his opinion Of
the language will not change when he
finds that he was shooting at his own
platform. instead of at me-"

After quoting from Haskell's letter
to Roosevelt, in which the former de-

one of the defendants, except, that oc-
casioned by the courts deliberations,
Sturdevant says in part:
Haskell has not answered to the
merits of a single case, but all pleas
filed by his attorneys are purely tech
nical and necessarily dilatory in effect.
Attorney Mott, Tor the Creek nation,
and myself, have announced several
times in open court and otherwise
that we are ready for immediate hear
ing in any and all suits filed. This
has been done with a view of obtain
ing a speedy adjustment of the con-
troversies, and in order to give any
person charged with primary liability
an opportunity to acquit himself of
such charge, il possible, without de-
lay. This course could have been pur-
sued without any violation of ultimate
rights, as jurisdiction over parties and
the subject matter can not be waived
in the federal courts, but for reasons
sufficient unto them tho de-
PENDANTS have not approved of it."
