18 " 1'1188 Bribe I
.
The question of a railroad palis
being a bribe is being discussed
more or less by the n wspapers of
the state and the general opinion
expressed is that a railroad pass
is a bribe. This opinion is expressed -
pressed qy a large number , who. .
formerly claimed that it was not I
a bribe. The change of opinion I
on this subject is due wholly to
the record of the last legislature ,
. which declined to pass twenty-
I
six bills introduced , each of
I I which in some way attempted to !
I regulate the railroad business ,
Whether there were any more
persons. in the recent legislature
than in former sessions that were
succeptible of influence , by the
favor of a pass , we have no means
of knowing , It may be .that
never before were tltey sUbjected
to so thorough test.
H has always been the custom
of the railroads to favor the
members of the legislation with
. annual transportation and grant
them special trip passe\ ! for their
friends , regardless of what party
they affiliated. The acts in this
. respect have not becn different
than in formcr ycars. We had
not regarded the practice as one
of bribery nor do not belicve that
, it was so intended b' ) ' ne railroad
officials , or the railroad compan-
ics authorizing the policy. It
was a courtesy in. recognition of
the honor confered by the citizens -
zens of the state. If the pass is
now a bribc the reciptent of the
favor alone and not the railroads
are at fault. A man who declines -
clines to vote or vote against the
_ interests of his constituents because -
cause of favors received or expected -
pected from any individual or
corporation is guilty of receiving
a bribe , whether the favor was
intcnded or not.
,
We still bcli ve that there are
men who can accept a pass and
remain true to his constiuents ,
but in the light of the recent1eg-
islature , we would suggest that the
parties hereafter make the pass
.que2tion an issue in their polih-
cal conventions in stead of in the
legislature and nominate no
man who will not pledge himself
not to accept a railroad pass , Of
anr favor from any individual 01'
. corporation during his term of
office for ltimself or friends. 'l'hie
rule shou1 < 1 apply not only tc
members of the legislature but tc
all state and county officers. Thh
would remove the temptation and
be a.matter of justice to the rail ,
roads , as well as to the pub1ic ,
J\s it now stands both the cor.
poration and the legislators res' '
under the stigma of giving and
taking briDes whether guilty OJ

the case as a rule.
The newspaper men enter into
a contract with the railroad cum-
panie s with individuals to do
a certain class of advertising for
them and receive as compensation
therefore transportation for themselves -
selves and reduced rates formem-
bers of his family and office help.
It is strictly a business proposition -
sition and the attempt to make
it appear as a bribe is witho ut
just cause.
Sll\tIJ l'rOS8 ( 'omUlcnt
' 1'he following is a fair sample
of the views generall.y expressed
by the prcss of the state 011 the
recent legislature.
Ainsworth Star-Journal-It is
almost unanimous opionion of
the mcmbers of the legislature
that the prescnt session has been
a record maler in the matter of
the ability of the members , in. .
the class of laws passed and in
the Idnd of bills which were turned -
ed down. ' 1'he rest of thc state
is not so unanimous on the pro-
position.
Stuart Ledger-'rhe legisla-
1.ure of Nebraska tlid not overlook -
look the best intersts of monkeys ,
parrots , quails and bcasts of the
four-footed species , including
prairic dogs. But the ) ' side-
traclccd t wen ty-scven bills to
lower exorbitant freght rates ,
that would have brought good to
coun tless people in every town
and hamlet in Nebraslm.
Yorl ( 'l'imes-'rhe only way to
beautify thc bad inf1uence of the
lobby is to elect men to the legislature -
lature who have widsom enough
to distinguish between good and
bad counscl and stamina enough
to do what they think is right.
'l'here is no wa ) ' to kcep mcn
from going to all public places
in the state capital and talking
with mcmbers of the legislature.
Men do that from good molive
as well as bac1. When the
governor of Nebraska spolce of
"untrammeled ad vlscrs" he coined -
ed a scutence th t will stn"tl , fOf
its means somctHing. 'rh ) ' arc
thert" alone with the rest : uIIl
even those who have a special
aucl perhaps a selfish interests titl
some measurc may be\untrunmel. \
ed as to others nnll give as whole ,
some and honest ac1su as aUJ
one. Indeed it is not proof thai
a measure is bad because interest' '
,
cd men are on Hie gronncl t <
favor it. A member of the legis
lature has all thesc conditions tc
meet and he mnst be strong anc
wise enough to do so wi thou
compromising imself.
Weeping Water Herald-'l'hl
press of the state received :
terrible roasting from some 0
the members of the legislaturl
just before adjournment , WI
know the boys will feel cut u1
over the matter , but don'
" apologize , as there is no necess
ity. ltUwas conceded when th
legislature convened and ther
was not much to clo , and the ,
sucecdec1 in doing it. The las
hours of the legislature were dc
voted entirel ' to panegyri
prai e of thcmselves and of th
good work they had done. ' 1'h
mewspaper men were abused an
denounced with epithets fo
crtticising the lawbrakers an
for receiving transporation frO !
! i the railroad company , on co ! :

- ' - '
I I dition that he advertise the
I business for. the corporation.
I Just th same , he advcrtises for
the merchants and takes cash ,
groceries or other things of value
I in payment. But the lawmaker
I who gets transporation gives
! nothing in return cxcept his in-
flucnce and vote. This is simplj'
bribcr ) ' .
Ccntral City Nonpareil--One ;
would think from the superior
sort of way In which the fusion
papers poke fun at the republican -
can prcss for its critic ! un of the
late lamented legislature' that
there are 'no skeletons in their
closcts , but their high and migh-
.r yon-can't-touch-mc style of
humor IS a litle disgus.hng to
those who remember the sessions
where their crowd was in con-
trol. 'l'he session just closed
was prett r bad in some respects
I
and full esrves the things the
newspapers'are saying ab 'ut it ,
but in point of accompliahmel\t
it is nu more barren of results
than the pop legislature of a few
ycars ago.
Columbus Journal-What will
be thc efect of the work of the
legislature on the republican
party ? Will it defeat the republican -
lican ticket next year or two
years hence ? No. But it will
bring about a stronger , more
radical republicanism in the re"
publican party. While the republican -
publican press of the state' an
the strongest representatives of
the republican legislature have
been pounding away for needed
rate legislation the de nocratic
press has been siting silent ,
using its influence enl to help
such corn pt lobbies aR the
"Bridge trust , " waiting for the
close of the session .for its-stereo-
typecl season for mud slinging.
.
'I'he voters of Nebraska .will
stand with the ind pencTent republic -
public press and that press is
already on record andv ll continue -
tinue on recorcl in a demand for
a republican platform of Theodre
