SILVER CREEK, Neb., Feb. %.~To the Editor of The Bee: If Mr. Bryan has not forfeited the confidence and, to a large ex- tent, the esteem of the democrats of Ne- braska, it is not his fault. For how could | they have very much confidence fn him ¥ | view of the fact, for instahce, that while | denouncing officials of the trusts for viola- | tions of the Sherman act and demanding | their condign punishment, he, himself, was at the same time guilty of Instigaiing the Nebraska legislature to enact into law the | Oregon plan of electing United States sena- tors in plain violation of the constitution of | the United States? And how could they | longér very much esteem’him when, after | long years of silence on the lquor question | while as & candidate, or a prospective can- | didate, silence would seem to serve his per- sonal ambitions, he now announces his | adhesion to county option and prepares to | fight the democrats of Nebraska, wh while loyally supporting him for the presi- | dency in 1908, elected a majority of the miembers of the leglslature on the ground | of. their opposition to county option? | Perhaps Mr. Bryan thinks that in now | espousing the cause of county option he is still serving his own personal ambitions. That may be.true. It Is certain that his present next season on chautauqua plat- | forms wiil be more in démand than ever, and when the preachers and the churches, with his essistance, shall have realized their ambition to gain. political eontrol. of the country, what thing more natural than that they should make him president of the United States. One thing, however, Is now certain it never before, namely, that Mr. Bryan will never be a democratic president of the United States. To my mind it is qQuite clear that to a majority of the demo- cats of the nation Women's Christian Tem- perance union logic in the Women's Chris- tlan 'Temperance ublon vernacular (and that s a proper characterization of Mr Bryan's pronouncement on county .eption) will not appeal, even' from the eloguent mouth of Mr. Bryan. In Mr. Bryan's deliverance, referred to above, he says: “To favor county option it s not naces- sary that one shall favor prohibition 1a his own or any other county.” And then. he proceeds on the adsumption | that county optlon s simply giving the | people of a county the right to say whether they will or will not. have saloons—a right | to govern themselves. But that is a gross | misrepresentation of fact. Even county | optionists will ‘not now deny that county | option permits the people of a county to | govern themselves only to the extent of | saying that they will not, have saloons and does not permit them to say that they will have saloons. County,option means county prohibition and nothing else. Mr. Bryan s either misinformed or is willfully attempt- | g to mislead. Any honest scheme of | county option would provide that a ma- Jority might force siloons info a town that did not want them as well as to provide that a majority might keep saloons out of | ® town that ald want them. True, one who was opposed to county prohibition might favor county option. But none but a natural born diot would do so and thus concede the right of his opponents to gov- ern, being In a majority, and at.the same time surrender the right of his own side to govern 1t it should happen to be in the majority. Mr. Bryan says: “The record of' the (ast) legislature has but one blot on it, and that blot was put there by the liquor in- terests. They controlled enough of the senators to prevent the submission of the initiative and referendum.” If the defeat of that proposed measure was & blot on the record of the leglslature, is It not true that the adoption of another measure, namely, the Oregon plan of eclecting_United States senators, which was, and which was intended to be, a nullification of a plain | provision of the constitution of the United States, was alse.a blot, a much deeper stain on the record of that legislature? The liquor interests are charged with de- feating an embryo act of the legislature of a state. Mr. Bryan is undenjably gullty of begulling the legislature of a state into committing & rape on the constitution of his country. ‘“People who llve in glass houses should not throw stones’” But ls it-true that the liquor Interests controlied senators? It might Wwith equal reason be sald that a majority of the voters of Ne- braska were controlled by the liquor inter- ests, which s absurd. A majority of the members of the legl iature and of the sen- ate wero elected chiefly because of their avowed opposition to county option, They were elected to the legisiature with the full understanding that they would defeat any- thing and everything that had afiy prohibi- tion in it. That Initiative and referendum measure had prohiblii.n in I; It was pus_ei| 99,860 PIANO CONTEST FIRST PRIZE—$300 Kimball Piano. SECOND PRIZE—$125 Piano Discount. THIRD PRIZE—$110 Piano Discount.
