LINCOLN, oct. G.--(Special)--m the
World Herald Of October Is, 1901 appeared
an article on the editorial page under the
caption Where DO You Stand?' II had
reference 70 the treasury shortage.
The article is here reproduced. With the
name OF the republican party" changed
to "G. NJ Hitchcock, democratic nominee
for United States senator" and the date
November changed TO November
otherwise the article is as 1t appeared In
MIR. 1Itchcocks paper. It IS as follows
WHERE DO EoU sTAND1
The public school money is precious,
"G NJ. Hitchcock democratic nominee
for United States senator, is afraid to tell
the people what he is doing with their
school funds
is such party entitled to q vote OF
confidence?
The people will answer this question on
November s."
when Hitchcock Landed.
From the time the republican state con
yention nominated II. l., Goold, charged
by the worldHerald with being ben
eficiary OF tile Bartlcy shortage, until cleo
tion day Mr. Hitchccok's paper kept up a
constant fire on the republican party for
elevadng such man to a place on its
ticket Day after day the republican party
was denounced and It's leaders referred to
as 'whited sepulchers," even though Mr..
Goold Withdrew from the race
Mr. Hitchcock is now in exactly the
same position in which Goold found him
self, except that Mr. Goold issued no
| false statements in his own behalf while
! the editor Of the World Herald grossly
misrepresented the facts. Mr. Goold did
not say he refused to pay his debt be-
cause il had been outlawed while Ml.
Hitchcock, over his own signature, said
he had done this very thing. It was not
necessary for charges to be filed against
GoOld with the state committee to get
him to withdraw, but Hitchcock declined
! to withdraw after the charges had been
| filed with the democratic state committee
and he even refused to permit the demo
cratic state committee to Investigate the
charges. He declined 70 meet the man,
before the committee. who had saved his
business and his reputation
For years he kept himself in the clear
by denouncing the republican party Tor
nominating a BARLEY beneficiary.
For nine years he has been crying stop
thief at the time he was carrying around
part Of the treasury shortage.
