DR. MILLER ON JUDGE POST. Nebraska Democracy’s Nester Expresses His Opinions Very Plainly. EDGERTON WOULD BE A STATE DISGRACE. No Reason for Democratic Animosity Against the Republican Nominee —Advice From the Sage of Seymou Dr. Georgo L. Miller of this city, a life long democrat, is outspoken ou the qualifica- tions of candidates for tho suprome bench, A reporter callod upon him yesterday and roquested that he publicly define nis posi tion: Jootor, 1t has been favor the election of Judge Post. any objections to stating your reas I favor the election of Judge Post,” an- swered the doctor, “and shall cast my vote for nim for the supromo beneh against Mr. Fdgorton. 1 shall do this for many reusons. Tho first and controlling consideration, put- ting aside all othors, with me is my great coucern for our stato credit and welfare. Agtations horo, organized and promoted by what is called the independent party, leading 10 wild and reckloss assaults upon all that is held by thougutful men to be safo and stable govornment, havo alroady injured our credit in tho money markots of tho country. To olect & man to the supremo bench who roprosents and embodies so much that is objectionablo in the openly avowed purposos of the independent party, and who is deemed by many of bis brother lawyers as wholly unfit for tho propar discharge of the gravest duties of ull civil goverament, would, in my judgmont, result in still furthor damage to 1ho state by repelling buyers of property and investors and also cheap woney from coming among us. Our people are borrowers, as all new pocple generally are, and uothing moro deeply concerns them than tho duty of main- taiuing their credit among the owners of moaey In thoold statos. I can concoive of no more damaging blow that could be strucic atour stato credit at this time than the election of such o mun as Mr. Edgertou to its supreme court.'’ “But, doctor, there aro democrats who, whilo thoy admit as you say, that tho eloction of Edgecton would damage the credit of the stato, and interfore with tue mcoming of eastorn capital into the state, claim that democrats are justified in vouing against Post on the ground that the republican stato platform denounced —do- mocracy unnecessarily in reference to the Bovd As a domoorat 1 rosent and denounce that part of the ropublican platform which assails ames K.

It can neitber be questioned nor devied, nor should it be for- fotten by domocratio citizens and friends of lovernor Boyd, that it was republican \nfluence and ' republican fidelity to good government that enaoled him to bbtaln bis seat as governor of this state. It reportod that you Have you 1 alters nothing, it changos nothing, that a cor- ruvt republican court ousted Governor Boyd from tho office of chief executive.

Jenuy, Tab- leaux CITY HALL BONDS. Submitted as a Matter of Form to Make Valid the Original Iss “People gonerally scom to have a wrong impression about tho city hall bonds,” suid Architect Beindorft last evening. *Tho re- port has been circulatod that all the bonos thus far voted have been used in the con- struction of tho butldng and that it is now sought to swell the total bonded indebted- ness for city hall purposes to $650,000, That is entivoly wrong. [I'uo situation is simply this: “Itwas originally intended to put upa £200,000 bnilding &nd bonds to that amount wero voted, Mr. Moyers was employed as arcnitect and £0,000 went into the founda- tion as originally planned, That loft $150, 000. It was then decided to evect an en- tiroly differout building, and an_additional £150,000 in bonds was voted, making an evan £00,000 for tha present building, after the old 50,000 foundation was torn out. “Now it is uot desired to vote any addi- tional bonds as the amount alveady voted is amply suficient, but tho city attorney has rondeéred an opinion to the effect that as tho first bonds were voted for a §200,000 building their use could not logally bo diverted to a £00,000 building, so that what it is intended to do is merely to vote thoso £150,000 over again, 1t is moro a mattor of form thun any thing elso, intended simply to make the bonds good and will not_increase the indebt- eduess of the city ono iota, as many peoplo havo been led to sunpose. *‘As a matter of fact the contracts let up to the present time amount to ®307,100.47, and that will flnish the building with 'the excep tion of elevators, the cost of which will bo about §,000, art glass §,500, a0d minor items aggreguting not more than #3,000. The gas fixtures will then probably cost about §20,000, furniture $25,000, carpets $10,000, and tho architect’s commission $20.000. ‘Phis will swoll the total cost to about §i00,000. ‘Ybat will leave at least $25,000 or 0,000 that they couldn't spend 1f they wanted to. They couid evon put in their own electrio light" plant, which it is not intended 10 do, and still bavé monoy left, “AS & matter of fact $125,000 would be ample to ba voted now to take the place of the $150,000 that wore voted at first. That was not, however, what I wanted particu- larly to show, as that will take care of itself, but 1 want the voters 1o understand that tho proposod eity hall bonds rre not now bonds and do not mean new indebteduess on the part of the city,” e — If all the world were water, And all the water were in What should we do for bread and food, What shoula we do do for drink! 1f ull the world were water we'd have wet foot and then colds, and what would we do without Haller's Sure Cure Cough Syrup! - Eye & oar surgeon, E.

BUT LENDERS ARE GREATLY ALARMED. They Regard tho Situation as a Menace t» Capital and Ihreaten to Withdraw Their Loans if * Edgerton is Lilected. Mr. Boach Taylor of this city recently re- turnea from a tour of the loading Iuropsan cities. His business counections led him to make an extended inquiry into the feelng existing among money lenders with reference to western loans. He has made a particular study of the relations existing between the peoplo of western states and those of tho east and of iurope. A reporter called upon Mr. Taylor yestorday and asked him to give for tho beneilt of the readers of Tus B - in- formation gathered on his travels. Ho said: “Asis generally conceded, the west is de- pondent upon foreign capital for its dovel- opwent snd prosperity. By bringing foreign woney into Nebraska we have accomphished more in twenty years thau could have beon done in a hun rod it we ud dopended wholly on our own resources. Every mun who his vought a farm by o small cash payment, every man Who hus secured a homé in the towns and cities on loug time aad cusy payments has {zood reason to thank those who have brought forcign capital into tho state. We are yot a dependent people and will b for years to come.” “Wnat per cent of the capital employed in Nevraska has beou furnished by peoplo re- siding without the state!” asked the re- porter, “iuily 75 per cent, and that has come into tho stato becauso We have thus far enacted wise laws, protocting both capital aud 1abor; because we have been fortunate in the selec tion of our judges; becauss we have not been so unmindful of our own interests as to say to the world, ‘If you como 1uto ovr state with capital we propose to keep that money uatil it suits our convenionce to pay it back,’ and because we have by tho groatest possible effort and by assurances of the most positive character succooded in not ouly establishing a confidence among thoso who bave invested in Nebraska, but we huye secured willions upon miliions of dollars to help the farmer pay for his farm and stock and the mechauic and the laborer Lo owu bis own howe and even buy and improve other prop orty as well." “How doos confidence in our securities and our just and equitable laws affect the bor rower!" “T'o this extent: It does not stand to rea- son that any man of ordinary judgment or businoss sense would loau bis money on mort- gage in o state where there was ho way to euforce collections, or where we have judges who in defiance of law render decisions which unnecessarily celay proceedings,or who never lose an opportunity to get themselves uuoted as saving, ‘During the Lext term of my court no foreclosure procoedings will be permitted.’ It is just such proceedings, such senseless talk as this, that drives cupital out of the country and increases the rate of interest be- yond that which it is possible for peoplo to pay. Thisis notall. Evory loau and trust company operating in the west has found it next to impessiblo to get money to loan on farm and city property at u fuir rate—in fact very littie at any rato of interest duriog the ast year. Of course the tight money mar- ot has been the cause for this, yet the cause for a tight money market is a want of confl- dence. Those in the east and in Europe havo pleuty of funds but thoy aro waiting to seo what sort of legislation is going to come out of the agitation caused, first, by the poor crops of last year, and latterly'by a lot of po- Litical demagogues going around the country and advocating the enactment of unconstiti tional laws, laws they know would not stand the test in any court of justice, or be sane tioned by any people with reasoning powers. hey ought to know that capital seeks invest- ment only whera contracts are recognized by courts aud where it may be placed with a cer- tainty of the prompt payment of both princi- pal and interest.” Whas, tn your judgment, has bean the ef fect of unwise altewpts at legislation 1n some of the western states and of the ex- pressions of certain judges with vespect to ro proceedings on mortgages?” queried the interviewer, “My business has within years taken me into the New E and also into Kneland and beine the territory we look to for cheap money. In conversation with those who in- vest their own funds,and with those corpora- tions which are seeking a class of securitios in which tho interest will be paid prompuly and the principal will be perfectly safe, I find without exception a lack of confidence and a_disinclwation to placo their funds where there is a possibility of hostile legisla- tion or unwise or unjust decisions by courts.”” i “Do you find corporativns and individuals well informed as to these matters and is their unwillingness to place funds to bo at- tributed to the utterances of uuscrupulous me “Yes, thoy are as well informed as we aro. Every rosolution of an alliauce organization antagonistic to capital, every word spoken by a demagogue politic every pi uncia- mento by an indiscreet and foolish judge seeking to make himself ‘solid' with the voters of his particular district, every utter- ance of tho ‘organ of tho party’ is pubhishea allover New fugland and Furope. These publications are commented upon editorially and the masses arc influenced thereby. Of course in many instances the comment is put in such a way as to make tho most unfay blo impression.”’ “What was your observation abroad with espect to investment in the western coun try!" During the past summer T met a number of peoplo who have been doing a very large business in the states, Many of the largest corporations have withdrawn from this field to await the results of this continual agita- tion. They say: ‘Whenever vour people gev sett down and come to a realizing sense of the nature of an obligation we will probably go into your territory agam. Our neople are disposed to loan iheir money to the people of your vountrv, conditional that the obligations entered into will be sacrediy carried out. With theso assurances we aro disposed Lo invest our money at a low rate of interest, but if you will enact such laws as will make it dificult to enforco collection you must not think wo are unreasonable if we koop ont of your Lerritory eutirely, ot make our ryte of intorest much higher than we havo heretofora ifi order to cover the ex pense of collcction wa'tell us the uncortalaty of it.' " *“What is the impression abroad with ro- spect to the organization known as the Farm- allance!” They have an idea that this is solely a po- litical orgaoization, which has been Tormed solely for the purpose of securing the onuct- ment of laws antagonistic to capital. The reason for assuming this is that sowe of the local allinuces have ‘thoughtiessly aud un- wisely adoptad resolutons denunciatory of foreign corporations and antagonistic to for- eigu capital. These pesolutions, giving ut- terance to a sentiment Among & certain class of our farmers who are largely borrowers of foreign capital, are also publishod broadcast n the castern states. aud Europe, and the ovil effect of this sentiment cau scarcely be imagined." “How do you regard the candidacy of o man for the high offica of judge of the su- preme court represeuting this idea aying aside all party prejudico and look ing solely to the interest of the people of the state of Nebraske, our development, growth and prosperity, and seekiug only the greatest good for the greatest number, I beliove the election of & judgo of this chiracter o the supreme bench of our state would be a disas- tor greater than that of & crop failure, and such a one us would take y 10 overcoume. “True or not, the impression is abroad that the ction of a man of this character means that our [aws are to bo set at defiance, that capi tal which may find 1ts way into the state, pither for investment or to loan, will be so legislated upon as to make it unsafe and un. profitable. 1 do not question that in the mat- ter of freigbt rates, pools and combinations the farming interests have been grievously outraged.

Mr. [2d- gerton, the candidate of the independent party, represents certain theories and ideas, andif he should ba elected he would bo obliged to carry out the principtes of the party which has “elected him. The very fact that'there existed a sentiment_sufliciently strong to clect & man to this court to render decisions without regard to tho constitution and well ostablished law would create distrust not alone among the property owners of this state but among ull who have heretoforo scut their money hero for investment. \We have uot heard it of but lust year some of the over-enthusi- astic alliance peoplo in Kansas adopted reso- lutions cailing upon tho legislaturo to enact a stay mortgage faw. So far as I know no such resolutions were adopted by uny Farm- ers’ allianco in Nebraskn, which is very much to their credit. The eaactment of such a law as this in the wostern country would b simply ruinous. It would drive out of that particular territory every dollar of foreign capital; not only this, but it would affect every state in the west depending upon for- eign capital to a large extent, and make 1t almost impossible to get funds to loan. It is recognized and understood that Mr. Edierton, if clocted, would represcnt this sort of a sentiment, and that if an opportunity was given'him he would render decisions which would boe favo: lo to an element that is clamoring for something and knows not what; an element that is full of ‘theories and has become sour and aiscruntled, growing out of misfortune and low prices: in clement that is plunging heaalong and blindly into all sorts of foolish schemes in order to accomn plish @ purpose without stopping to seriously cousider the civil effects aund the damage which 1s being dono by the publicity which is given to its crude sentiments, “Lvery good, true and loyal citizen of Ne oraska psoual interest in its growth and devel t and reputation abroad.

Stop the flow of foreign capital into the stato of Nobraska for one yearand you sct us back in our progross twenty-fivoe years, and any move which would produce this effect would simply be blind stupidity on the part of our people. Th isa very serious watter and should be considered solely from a stano- point s 10 whit 15 for tho Dast interests of all without regard to our party prejudices There is too much luvolved in this matter to pass it by slightingly or to 10se sight of be- cause of some local grivvances that may exist here and there. T'uo people of Nobraska are too intelligent to disregard the importance of this issue, which prosents itself at this time, Those who are engaged 1 securing cheap mouey to bring 1nto this state to loan are do- ing more for its development than all other agencios combined; they ara making it pos- sible for peovle of moderate means to brige themselves over in financial embarrassment and are furnishing them with money ata very low rate of interest considering the present financial condition, and when they aro put- ting forward the effort they are in this dir tion they should not have obstacles throw in their way by those who are tho bene- ficlaries, Without foreign money we cauuot maxe further improvements, and we would stop right where wo are, and the values placed on property would 06 more imaginary than real.” “How do you find the feeling among the Scottish investors, who pluce more money in this country than any othrer class of people " askea the scribe. “I found in Edinburg some five or six companies with a capital of from £300,000 to £1,000,000, who have been loaning' thewr money almost enurely in the western part of the United States. I found thut the com { anios had withdrawn almost entirely, stating as & reason th tor that we were in such an unsettie i condition here tuat they did not care to take auy chances in making further investments and that thoy would wait and see what we were going to do. [ presumo that the city of Iidinburg aloue has placed from fifteen to twenty millions in the west- ern country within the past five years, Theso people have accepted a very low rate of in- terest. This money is scattored around among tho f: argely in Minnesota, Da- kota, Nevraska, Kansus and Toexas, very lit- tle of 1t being' loaned in the cities.” Now if our Scottish investors should learn that wo had elected to the supreme court of our stato a gentleman who would be inclined to favor stay proceedings in mortgago cases and one who could be induced to raise technical ques tions in enforcing collections, it does not re- quire much forethought to arrive atu conclu- sion as to what the effect would bo, My idea is that this unnecessary and fool- ish agitation about foreign companies and foreign money loaners should cease. The best interosts of Nebraska demund this, and L oarnestly hopo that we have heard tho last of this talk about stay mortgage procoodings or the refusal of judges to entertain moasures for foreclosure, neither of which could stand the test of any just court. Nobrasia has raised an enormous crop this year and farm- ors are getting a faie prico” for their pro- ducts, and we should have great activity in real estato and very prosperous tumes. Thuro should be less nocessity for borrowing money, but we should not throw obstacles in the wuy of those who are obliged to borrow in order to save their homes or to make im- provements which wiil add to tho material welfaro of the people and be an honor and credit to those who undertake thom."
