FOSTER WRITES SOME MORL) tor” Harry Now Goes to Mat with Des Moines Capital. { GOING TO GET BURKETT'S GOAT Capltal Mepoblishes MHis Ultimatum to Senaior De ing & J Threntening to Eleet An- other Man. r. Hagry ' A, Foster, chronie office- secker, lurgent abd dentist, has been writing mers 16ttets, as witness the follow- ing taken from the Des Moines Capital, which had préviously alluded to him as one of the shining lights of Nebraska Insur- gency: “January ™, 1910.-Des Moines Capital: Your articls” on a ‘Typical Fighter for Principie’ Is good. 1 may be, as you say, a disgrace to the insurgents and a bull thistle in a bunch of dalsies, but Benator E. J. Burkett Is a bull conner in the U. 8. 8, and the Nebraska insurgents are sure a bunch of dalsies and they are going to get Mr. Burkett's political goat without your ald or as ance. 1 have been an active republican for a jong tune, was a member of the legislature that erccted Mr. Burkett, had the honor to be one of a committee that gave a bafiquet to which your dis- tinguished Insurgent, Governor Cummins, was the chlef speaker. Senator Burkett simply made a dupe of me, as he has of others in this state. T do not trage my vote for this favor. I asked for the favor after 1 _had voted for him, glving him the best of recomiendations from such men as the lato Edward Rosewnter, ex-Governor Mickey, Congressman Kennedy and others. Benator Burkeft 18 known In Nebraska ns | ‘Slippery Elmer.” That, I think, tells the tale. The enclosed clipping will explain to | you the whole business. “DR. HARRY A.

You may know or may not know that I’ resisted the overtures of the B. & M. fellows to beat you because I thought you would treat me square. I will say that I have had some: preliminary corre- spondence with ‘your friend, C. O. Whedon, and that-1 am in a position to be with you or agalnst you, according to the way you answer this letter. You probably think I am a dead one, politically, but I got the nomination last fall for the legislature against your friend, Victor Rosewater, and I can and will'do it next fall. Draw your own conclusions and’do as you please. It 18 all the same to me: This is a demand, not an appeal, and It {s up to you. The fellow who now holds the position has never done a thing for the party. If it were not for the fact that he Is a brother- in-law of Senator Millard he never would have gotten the position at all.

To bulld the two houses will mean that the entire frelght yards of the Burlington route will have to be altered.
