LINCOLN. Neb., Sept s.-(special) -Sen-
ator Burektt and c. II. Aldrich. candidate
for governor on the republican ticket spoke
at the auditorium at the state fair this
afternoon, the occasion being republican
day. Chairman Husenetter OF the repub-
llcan state committe, presided. While the
crowd which heard the democratic cand-
dates yesterday was much larger, the en-
thusasm Of the crowd which today listened
to the republican candidates was much
more intense.
Senator Aldrich defended the plank in the
republican platform endorsing county OPP
ton; held up the legislation OF the 1901
legislature as n sample OF the way the re-
publican party keeps its pledges and argued
with his crowd that to elect Mayor Dahl
man governor would be to take Nebraska
back 10 the frontier days. He told of the
good work of the state railway commission
and OF the benefits that had been received
by the people who had appealed to this
commission for relief from the wrongs Of
the railroads. He depressed considerably
from his set speech and once during his
remarks, speaking Of Dahlman's announce
ment that he would veto a county option
bill paraphrasing Shakespeare, he said:
On what mas lulh nlhu leu NHdA ho htANiA
become greater than all the people?'
'On breweries," yelled someone in the
crowd.
Yes" replied Senator Aldrich, "Schlitz,
Pabst and those other good patriotic Amer
lean names"
Theeat Against University.
on another occasion Aldrich accused Dahl
man of having threatened the state uni
versity unless the professors kept out VI
politics.
Keep the professors out of politics and
let the brewers run the state. / say the
professors should lose their jobs unless
they do fight. They should fight and keep
on fighting"
Senator Aldrich insisted that county OPP
ton would affect no county unless ma
jority of the voters in that county desired
to vote 1t dry. II majority OF the county
favored saloons, then the Slocumb law ap-
piled. great portion Of his speech was
devoted to an endorsement OF county option
and an argument in it's favor, together with
a review of republican rule in the state.
Senator Burkett talked on national issues,
holding up the record Of the republican
party of the past as a guaranty Of what it
would do in the future.

was made because the Burlington railroad
refused TO sell single fare tickets to the
grounds, but insisted that the purchaser
should buy a round-trip. This forced the
purchaser to return by train or lose his
nickel There was also complaint at the
way the crowds we're handled at the gates
by the Burlington, one trainload leaving the
cars next to train load which was pulling
out for the grounds. However, no one was
injured.
President Sharpa of the traction company
helped his men at the grounds yesterday
and did his part toward packing the cars
full and seeing to 1t that the signal to
start was not given until every inch OF

space between the seats was jammed.
