I have ben a republican in the ranks all these years, casting my first vote for that great mptain, UlyssesS. Grant. [n this con- test wo have thesameold democratic party as our antagonist. It is the party thit opposed the publie sehool svstem, the homestead law wnd pension legislation. It is the party whichhas been and isuow ten yeirs behind the tines. Thatpartyin this~ state today bas & very faint hope of su. . I wil tell you how—by villi ng the fair name of the * state, iy appealing to the pasionsand prejudices of the paple, by magnifying the mis forturnes and clsse times we have encountered, by mul: tiplying ourills and _creatmg dissatisfaction among the people, They have advertised the slate 1 the world at luge as being poverty strilen, that farns are mortgagel for more than actual value, thatour taxes arve higher than in adjoining states-—in short, that no one can come here and hope to prosper, Anl for what purpose! That democrats may b elected to ofice, There is e question—a non-partisin one —which miny of our people consider of peranount importance, I refer to the pro- hibitory amendment. Our democratic friends seem to think it would help their causo to have me publicy define myself on that questin. Were 1 to do they would herld it over proud stite that the republican party s conmitted thereby. My republican friends here and elsewhere, both those who favorand those who oppose’ the amendment, umn»ugm_‘unucysmufi oy position on the question, and I would have no hesitincy in ublicy declaring that position were it not Ym» the fact thatsuch declaration would b2 construed by many as an attempt by me tocomuit the parly on the question after that organization had, by common consen, In convention assembled, omittedit from its platform. Any declaration by me at this time wouldbe “cmsidered as an addition to the platform, which was made prior to the nomination, If the platform was god emough to acept the nomination o, 1t is good clough to go before the people o, It seems unwise for my republican friends to expect me to assume a1esponsibility to speak for_the parly, especially after the convention had an opportunity toconsider itand refused to make 1t1 party issie. If eleded, the peo- ple have arightto expect and demand of me an enforcementof the laws and their ex- pressd will AN ACG RESSIVE ( are enpaced MPAIGN. It Will End in Victory After a Clear and Open Fight, Hon. John C. Watson, chairman of the re- publican state central commitiee, spoke, in substance, as follows: The repblicn party of thestateof Ne- brasks tonight enters upn its thirtcenth gubematorial campaign. In round numbers it isa quarter of @ century siice the pary was formed in Nebraska, and this meeting is in thenature of the party's silver wedding, for atthe end of Governor L. D. Richard's firstterm it will be about thetwenty-fifth anniversary of the admission of Nebraskaas u stato in the wnion. The parly as then o ganind entered upon its finst state campaign, fromwhich it emerged triunphant. In each suceessive year have Nebraska republicans folloved its standard to victory. Thelre time rska dectel a n- publican govemor; twelve times s t decired for the republicin udiclary ; six times has it cast ts electonl vote for the republicon presiden- tial candidate. Though other states- Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indina, Illincs, Kansas, Massachusetts, even Igwi—have cometimes faltered md fulled, Nebraska never, Our color, thinks to the courage and consist- ency of our laden and tho bravery md patriotic ladenhip of ourrankand flle, have never bea lowered, The order to retreat has never been heard along our line, but after each political battle we have occupied the field from which the enemy has fled. Tyentyihreo yeas ago the republican party of Nebriska took possession of the staté government, anl well and worthily hs it discharged its trusts and ministeral to the progress and prospenity of the state. The riy took it asa state of 50,00 population ; t holds it todsy an empire commonwealth withmore than a million inhabitants. The xty came into power when the equil- zed valuie' of taxwmble proprty in its twenly-cight counties was $40,000,00 3 it holds ittoday when the taxable wealth of its ninety counties foots up §250000,00. The party has govemned the state honestly and well, Itfoundit indebt 00,00, Today it is out of debt, something that cin not be said of wy sate with an aliance or prohibi- tion or & democratis govermor. It has ben the party aim in the administration of the state government o subserve the public gool @nl to maintain untarnished the credt md high character of the stato; to promote economy in every depart- ment, and in all respeets 1o be faithful ad trucin the traditions and principles which have governed this country for the lst twenty-three years, It bas gone on from prosperity to .'.nmwmy,unm today in all the demcits of good govemment it will com- par favorably withany state in the umim. Iu short, after twenty-threo years of rule, the republican party of Nebraska stands before the people of the state ready o render an ic- count of its stewardship, a.d with justifiable prideinvites the closest scrutany of ts record. So much for the past, I think this brief statementof the actual accomplishments of the republican party tells a story of duty ‘wonestly performed, of wise legislition, ot .~ prulencein piblic expeniture, of fdelity in every intrestrarely equilled in the hisory of giveriments anyw e party, trie to its traditic s, has put (rwarl its formand its andidates pleagred by their history to crry out 10 thelitter the dodrines, of whichwe are soproud and for which we have sacrificedso mich, and with which we feelcertain tosucceed. = Welave notchanged oir tadics, nor do we propose to dc V' t 1o elect oul ndidate and to ontinie the same geeral coure, which wehave hereofore pursied.
