Discord in Republican Glec Club
Senator Stanley tDem., Ky) is al
ways happy in descriptive comment,
as witness the following from a re-
cent speech explaining the discord
among prominent Republicans:

and affectionately suggest to my good
friend and neighbor from Indiana
(Mr. watson) that the trouble with

is not that one man is doing all the
singing, but that too many are singing
and singing in different tunes. For
instance. whenever the president
sings In falsetto the powerful voice
Of the senator from Idaho (Mr. Bor-

The Flood Disasters

tHC lIDtu DBouSNNIB
Mr.. Young discovered that the
government has expended ninety-one
millions in reclamation work in the
West. OF a cost Of forty-seven dollars
and ten cents per acre, and he has by
| a personal survey and estimate found
| that the disastrous floods of last year
destroyed the crops on six hundred
and ten thousand acres in tho Fourth
| congressional district. Platte river
alone inundated ninety-six thousand
acres. of which over two hundred and
eighty thousand acres were in Platte
county. The Missouri, Platte. Noda-
way and Nishnabotna rivers are gov
ernment streams, and should be i'm
proved by the government. II arid
land in the West is worth reclalming
at forty-seven dollars and ten cents
per acre and If the United States
plays fair with us. the Fourth con-
gresslonal district is entitled to twen-
ty-oisht million dollars.
| Mr.. Young pledges himself II elect
cd to devote his untiring energy to
secure an appropriation for improv-
ing existing conditions. and no farmer
or laboring man can afford to pass
his candidacy lightly by. The I'M
provemrnt Of these streams would be
a blessing to the whole district. as II
would reclaim the low lands. provide
work for hundreds OF laboring men
and directly benefit merchant artisan
and professional men.
Democracy Cost Him a Place
Mr.. Young's friends and he himself
feel proud OF the fact that It was his
Democracy which prevented him
from securing a good government ap-
pointment several years ago. That
he was competent for the place was

in Washington show that in the ex-

Tariff

As previously stated in these col

ture on the Tariff bill was bluff.
The movers knew in advance that
they did not have the necessary vote.
but they carried out their pretense Of
wanting speedy action. although they
could only muster As votes against S5.
The 80 opponents included five Re-
publicans-BOrah. Brandegee, La

If Robt. 7. Young Is not nominated
rs the Democratic candidate for
member OF the senate. it will not be
because he is inactive. for since he
has begun his canvass of the district,
he has given his race as much, if not
more. publicity than any other candi-
dacy
Energy is one Of Mr.. Youngs char
actcristics and energy coupled with
good sense and sound judgment can
como as near securing what is de-
sired as any other qualification. TO
make successful senator one
must be possessed OF boundless ener-
gy, tact, and be thoroughly versed In
all matters which pertain to the in
| tcrests OF the people whom he wishes
| to serve. In Mr.. Young's case he is
| endowed with them all.
An Extensive Acquaintance
One Of the advantages Mr.. Young
has is the fact that he was born in.
and has lived the sixty-two years of
/ his life, in the great Platte Purchase.
| During all these years he has formed
an acquaintance which now stands
| him in good stead, for there is hardly
n farmer, q business or professional
man in the district whom he has not
at some time met and formed an ac-
quaintance which generally developed
into friendship.
1t is a characteristic OF Mr.. YounG
that when he makes friends he re-
tains them, and this fact has much
to do with the success he is meeting
in his canvass among the voters OF
this district.
During his career he has Travelled
over a great portion OF the West and
in that time has acquired fund oi
knowledge which stands him in good
s,cad. Accomplishments never hurt
any person and one OF the best ac.
complishments is that OF being thor.
ouGhly posted in all matters OF gen.
eral detail.
