The weak spot for the Kenubllcana Is the nomination of James Sherman for vice-president, because he Is a "stand patter" on the tariff. Governor Shel don of this state, at Chlcno. when Interviewed by tho Omaha. World-Hor-ald on Sherman's candidacy, auld: "That would be a fitm tiling for tlio Democrats Hnd bad for the Republi cans." Now that Sherman Is the nom inee, Governor Sheldon's Interview rises to plague the Republicans. Nebraska Is a state of the Cummins-La Follette brand, where tariff revisionists live. They don't like the presence of a tariff "standpatter" on the ticket. Cummins was the choice In this region, and tho gratuitous flings at the Jowa statesman of Chicugo during tho discussion of him and Dolllver for tho vice-presidency, angered the Immense Cummins following in Nebraska, aa t did In Iowa, Minnesota. Wisconsin and Kansas. Cummins Stands Solid. Cummins would have been nroof evi dent of a sincere intention to lower exactions caused by t ho too high tariff. Sherman causes honest revisionists to scrutinize very closely the revision nro- :ram of the Republican party as set orth in the platform, wherein Is stated no ract of the tariff as now adminis tered being too high, at least In spots. Another Weak Spot. The Republicans failed to Insert planks fur valuation of rail properties. popular election of senators and nul. Ilclty of campaign contributions. Theso planks were demanded stronelir hereabouts. Again. Rrvan has grown on these Ne- braskans. They operated In former years on the theory that no prophet should have honor in his own country; hence, they turned him down In 1900.
