Craddock Charged With Being a Traftor to His Professions and Evades Giving a Direct Answer. SiLver Curex, Neb, Se Yediter of Tur Brr: Yes afternoon W Wright, allance candidate for com- auissioner of publiclands and buildings, and J. H. Cruddock, secretary of the general as- senbly of the Knights of Labor, spoke at this place toa meeting of farmers from the four counties of Morrick, Polk, Platte and Nuuce, AWVell, that sounds pretty large, but T must & 10 that by actual count there were present §ust precisely twenty voters and no more, 1 am thus particular because Mr. Wright made bitter complaint that the papers of the state didnot publish the numbers attending inde péndent meetings or what their speakers £aid and I trust that for once Tue Ber will ¢ him in both particulars. L 05 & matterof fact, neither speaker pail anything worth publishing or worth Listening to, except as they represented a yolitical party that is just now attracting considerable attention. And as their talk was quite after the fashion of their speakers generally it may bear brief com. anent. Mr. Wright talked about financial affairs considerable length and made such transparently foolish statements as these: “The financial dificulties of the peo- pleat the present time are caused by legisla- tion. Ifmoney had been kept in civculution by the government, as the population and business of the country increased would now have plenty’of mone Yiave got less thau & per capita in tion, while at the cose of the war there were per capita in circulation.” Lét uglook at thi suent. Now these new suunding that the currenc ) per capita, which, a 2.~To the at be cording to M, Vright, would make the amount of money in circulation more thun ten times what it $s.and, according to the commonly accopted theory, might be expected to increase | toufold, so that if corn were now cents per bushel it would then be worth §2. yoor bushel, but Socent tea would then ¢ 1he farmer'$, and the pair of boots for whic henow s would then cost him . So farthe thing would be just about a standoft, Yo, leaving out any fine question of me there would be this advantage—tha farmer who lappencd t0 owe his neighbor &0 for a horse would then able to pey it with the equivalent of an even $10 such s was in circulation atthe time he contracted the obligation, and the farmer who had bor- yowed £1,000 of & “money shark’ on his farm iu good hurd rold would then be able to pay off said shark at the rateof 10 cents on the . That would be mce for the farmer, t bad for the shark; but then sharks don’t count und inthese times a farmer who be- Jieves in honestly paying his honest debts is & traitor, Mr. Wright s id that “our republic is not auite destroyed, but._aluost.) Now, accord- ingto the Oscéols Democrat, Mr. Powers #uld in 4 speech there that our republic is de- stioyed. 1f our republic is so badly done up Wwhy are these gentlemen doing so much talk. ng! Does Mr. Powers want to be king of Nebraskat aud does Mr. Wright aspive to bo oue of the court oficials and wear a cocked Lt and side arms? Mr. Wright said thatat the close of the ses- sjon he knew a member of tho logislature to #ell €350, in postage stamps to a banker Tor 90 cents. Now I didn’t su: pose as big a g0l as that could get into the legislature ay all, and as amattor of local pride I must in- ist that that member did not hail from Mer- xick county. Mr. Wrigght earnestly admonished the farm yers not fo read opposition_papers or to attend opposition meetings. Wouder if he was alraid republican papers and speakers would €xpose some of thoir sophistries, It is only 3ust to Mr. Wright, however, to say that in 1Lis he was only obeying the command of his superior, Dictator Burrows, as_published in the Allfance of August 9, which command s ordered to be “passed along tne line,”” Mr. Wright had a remedy for all tho ills thut are supposed to afllict” thé body politic, aid that was to vote the people’s ticket. And Why? Virtunly this—that they had ogreed 1obe honest; they were pledzed not tosteal, Mr. Paddock delivered himself of a great awount of froth and foam in his denuncia- tious of the govenment and the laws, and tulked more like ared-mouthed anarchist than 1ike an honest A mevican citizen, At the conclusion of his remarks Mr, Craddock was asked if it was not True thal apublic letter he had said that was uppended to the call for the late ipdependent state convention without his knowledge or consent. After some par- leying he evaded a_ direct answer and slunk out of the hall, It is charitable to pose that hewentout to get a drink, Now the J¢iut his questioner desired to bring out, and Mr. Chaddock doubtless guessed as much, Was this, that he hid made such an asser- tion, thus conveying the impression that Burrows had forged his name to that docu- aent and that Burrows in referring to it in e allinee had in effect called him a liar, Such every well read man knows were the fucts inthe case, and the conclusion would ve 1his, that, if these great leaders in the new varty on their own testimony as to each ather, are shown to be a _pack of liars, forg- «rs and offerers of bribes, how does it appear bt this new party is entitled to the confl- dence of the people !

Parsons and Mrs, C. Spies, wife and mother respectively of two of the executed anarchists, Some time ago the central labor union, which is a federation of the German trades unions in this city, protested through one of its delegates against the further payment of a semi-monthly pension to these women, No action was taken and the attack was rencwed toduy, the central labor union presenting evidence that both Mrs. Spies and Mrs, Parsons were comparatively well off, owning real esiate and having other sources of income, There were many red hot speeches, but the vote resulted in favor of a continuance of the subsidy to the women, ‘The prevailing seutiment seemed o be that if the names of these women, which aro drawingeards forsubseriptions, were stricken from the rolls the association might as well disband, for it would mno longer to be able to collect assessments o pay other benefici: Asaresult of the controversy the central labor union will probably with- draw from the ald association. —— MINES AND MININ A Separate Department Recom- mended at the World’s Fair, Cmicao, Sept. 14—Commissioner Mo Donald of California has prepared for the committee on permanent orgamiztiona re- port from the subcommittee on mines and mining, recommending the establishment of a separate department in & separate building tobe cilled the departmentof mines and mining, Attention is called to the fat of the great importance of the mineral industries of tho country. is asked that in extending tions o foreign governments they bo aroomll)‘ requested 10 furnish a completo dis- play of their mineral resources, together with the methods and machinery used in their mines.

The charmof “The Old Homestead" con- sists of its kindly, honest simplicity. It is a breath from another world than the rushing, crushing caty life, It is & novelty, a cherished dream of the past, The play brings back recollections of a white haired father reading his bible atnight, while the whole family joined in the old, old song of “Brattle Strect” and “Boylston."

The Blans and Purposes of the Fonnd: ers of the Institution—A Descrip- ton of, the Structare ana fts Cost. All yesterday afternoon the sky was over- cast with dark, heavy clouds, indicative of an approaching storm, but notwithstanding this fact 1,000 people of the city were not deterred from avending the ceremonios of the laying of the cornerstone of the orphanage for the Conventof Merey, in Benson Place, a pretty suburb six miles northwest from the busi- ness portion of the ciyy, At 1:30 p. m. a procession formed at the corner of Fourteenth and Douglas streets in the following order and marched to the Web- ster stroet depot: Grand marshalof the day, Captain MeMahon of South Omaha; Ancient Order of Hibernia band, fifteen pece vision No. 1, Ancient Order of Hiberi men, W.

Fifteen minutes later the band struck u p a lively tune and the procession marched west on Douglas street to Fifteenth, thence north tothe depot, wher three couches were filled with the members of tho orders and their la- dies and were soon speeding away. At Walnut Hill the party disembarked, aud were soon on the way to the scene of the Laying of the corner stone, going on foot and 1n carriages and carryalls. At every street comer carriages dropped 1nto the procession, until by the time the grounds were reached fully one hundred teams were n line. On the high hill, overlooking the city and the sur- rounding country, there wasa halt of a few minutes while Vicar General Choka arranged the procession in the following ovder upon the east sido of the foundation of the building : A. O.H. band, A, O. H. societies of Omaha and South Onwha, Bohemian _Catholic Knights of America, society of St. Waclava, soclety of St. Cyrilla and_society of St. Methodeje of the Bohemian church, forty- orphas, twenty-one boys and twent girls from the " Cmvent of Merey, the Bo- hemian Catholic society of St John, followed by Viear General Choka, Fathers Glaube McCarthy, Carvoll, Breitkauff and Daxacher, who were chauting the litany of the saints, The procession passed around the build ing and ascended the steps upon the north side, where it was met by Fathel Rigge, Do Schoyver, Brongeets, 0'Sullivan, Ki d and Corbley, who assigued the so- cieties to the respective positions. A bymn was sung while the cor block of Warrensbirg sandstone twent inches long, nincteon inenes high a nches wide, was riised a few inches from its positionon the southeast coruer of the main wall. A prayer was then offered by Vicar Gen- eral Choka, after which the stone was blessed and sprinkled with holy water, and with uo- covered heads the Mass of people stood silent while the reverend gentleman reccived a tin box containing copies of Tik OvAlta DArLy Bre and the othor eity papers, the Catholic News of New York. o memovial sheet ou which were inscribed the names of Pope Lep XII, the presidentof the United States and members of the cabinet, the late Bishop O'Conner, Vicar Génerat Choka, the Catholio clergy of the city, the state, county and city ofticils, the priucipal donors towards the ercction of the dnstitution, E.

Creedon, the medals of devotion of the Catho- lic church aud a colleetion of silver coin, This was placed in the aperature cut ont of the top of the stone: A trowel was handed to Vicar General Choka, and with it he spread mortar beneath the ~ stone, after which it was lowered into place, there to remain for ages to come. This part of the ermony. huving been com- pleted, Father MeCarty said: “We, dear friends, have assembled here today for the purpose of laying the founda tion of an instituaion that has” been greatly needed for 1o, as many years, We Catholics have onr schools, our churches and our hos- pitals in abundanice, but we have long néeded an institution where we could properly care for thelittle ones who have boen left behind by parents that have gone tothat other world, Our acts of charity have been heralded far and wide, and considering the number of Catholics in this city and their means, they are performing a great and & good worl. I dare say that no other church ~can point to such @ record, but notwithstunding the great work of the last decade, thero is one branch of our work that has been sadly neglocted. There have been many things to perform, and this may seem to be excusable, but it seems to mo that the work being cone today should have boen commenced yearsugo. The Sisters of Merey have worked to save the little ones, but the people of the Catholic church have failed to give them their support, and many bright boys and girls have gone'to ruin be- ause there has been no place for themto be ared for. “Visitors to tho city, of propert; knowing the amount owned by the church, wonder that we have not built a cathedral; of our brethren wonder; but, I's 0 we want a place for the - children before we have any more churches, Wo hayo the means to make this orphanage a success and should do so without goiug outsideof our church for aid orsupport, aud for this reason 1hopeno Catholic will b compelled to o be- fore the community at large to ask for aid in the coustruction of this buildingg. “This institution is not aloe for the purpose of feeding and clotling the orphaws, but it is to prepare them to lead just and ap- right lives when they go out to bo confron ted with the sins of the world.’!

Judson of Paradise Valle 'y Pa., became interested _one Sunday this summor, says the New York Sun, in the movementsof apairof humming birds that were sipping swoets from the blos- soms of a honeysuckle vine that trailed up theside of the house. He was leaning out of the window a fow foot from where the tiny birds were darting from flower to flower, when the stillness was broken by the large squawk of o mother hen, who had been seratching around a rose hugh with her brood of ‘ehickens a short distance away, The little feathered honey-gatherers, whose nest hung from the limb of aspruce tree in the yard, puid no attention to the hen's wy rning squall, buzzing here and there among the muss of honeysucklos, and sipping away as though they were used to that kind of a noise, Suddenly & lirge hen-haw down, brushed the edge of the rosebush with his right wing, and clawed up one of the chickens in o twinkling. l'I'ln‘u the mother hen gave vent to another startled squall, flew at the hawk and tore out a few feathers, At this the humming-hirds shot away from tho honeysuckle vine and went buzzing past the window like two bullets from « gun, and the next thing Mr. Judson saw of them they weve striking the hawk on each side of its head with their pointed little Dills, The big bird had risen several feot above the ground and was bothered in its flight hy some overhanging limbs, when the humming-bivds darted at its head, while the chicken in its claws was peeping at the top of its voice, and the old hen was fluttering around the yard in grent distress, squalling as hard as she could, and nly teying to fly up to the bold chicken thie When the ting fighters first hit the hawls on the head it instantly released its hold on the chicken and worked it=olf loose from the mass of twigs above its wings, Asit arose the fierce little hirds repentedly darted viciously atits head, hitting the mark at every' dart, They foughtit so fast and hard that the hawlk soon became bewildered, scom- ingly not knowing which way to go. In- stead of souring aloft to a great height orsailing away to the forest on the hill- side, the:big bird tried to get beyond the rench of the sharp beaks of its punky little tormenters by flying back nd forth over the farm buildings, Tho birds had no mer on the nd kept darting at its hoad till it amed. Among the topmost Imanches of a tall elm tree inone of Mr. Judson’s meadows apairof iing birds had been watching out for hawks and crows during the long summor days.
