HUGHES IN LINCOLN,
ATTACKS BRYAN ON
BUSINESS IDEAS
Seeks Reforms by Magic Gov
ernor Tells NehraSkans of
Their TownSmen.

LINCOLN. Neh., Oct. It's II posi-.
bic that Mr. Bryan can know anything
OF the principles OF business?"
With this as his text Hughes, of New
York, in Mr.. Bryans home city here
to-day attacked the industrial and
labor policies of the Democratic candi-
date for President. Greeted at the sta
ton by large crowd the Governor was
escorted to the opera house. where he
spoke.
Mr.. Bryan has announced himself in
favor of the determination of trusts"
said Gov. Hughes. ITO eXterminate
them he offers variety OF remedies.
He has large assortment OF remedies.
so that II you do not like one you may
try another and so on until you find one
that pleases your fancy.
But Analysing all OF them you fnd
that he makes three proposals which he
thinks suitable and practicable in limit
ing the power of corporations. In the
first place. he says let us prohibit the
duplication OF directors in competing cor
porations. that is. make 1t unlawful for
a director in one concern from being a
director in another This is a very
pretty theory. But is it workable? You
know quite well that II a man owned
the majority OF stock in a number OF
corporations he would have such d.
rectors as he wanted, and whether there
was any duplication or not the effect
would be the same. Well. II you don't
like that says Mr. bryan. here is an
other proposal.
Let US go through the tariff sched-
ules and put on the free list the things
that are being manufactured by the
trusts. That will destroy them True
enough. but would It not also destroy
the weaker manufacturers in the same
line VINO are lighting against the trusts.
and who. being small, have the least
power TO resist?
We'll. then. says Mr.. Bryan. here's
another that's bound to win. Let's
cut down the output OF each monopoly
TO 80 per cent Another pretty but
wholly fanciful theory. i say that an
attempt to regulate manufacturers by
percentages would entail such com
plcated system OF bureaus that the
Government would be obnoNiously bu-
reaucratic. All these schemes are at
tempts TO bring about reform by magic"

Then she declared that Erb was beat
ing his wife with his fists.
However this detail OF the tragedy is
cleared up, the fact remains that she

SCHOOL LAND SITUATION.

The sale OF the school Lands Is in
no way PARTISAN question, and the
adherents for AMI against are as bad
ly mixed insofar as political convic-
tions so as is possible for men to be.
The opponents Of sale have this double
vantage-besides those who oppose,
many oppose because OF the provisions
lisliked In the bill accompanying the
petition for sale, And it can not be
gainsaid the opponents of the bill are
numerous.
Reduced down to an abstract propo-
sition with two debatable matters, the
friends of sac can nope for many re-.
c-iils who are aware that It might
bring more money to the state in a
direct channel to the school fund by
holding lands, but that the state land
lordism plan ever has and will ever
work toward the weakness of citizen
ship AMI failure to keep lands as they
should be. Again. the preference rignt
written In the enabling act will al
ways mitigate against the proper sale.
and as lands increase IN value, that
right stands as the greater barrier 10

than the land is worth or allow the
lessee 10 keep same, without the wor-
