\ \ M ITS EFTECT AT WASHINGTON Mr. Dl Letter Received with Much Wazging of Politically Wise Heads. HIS ATTITUDE TOWARD MR. HARRISON | | in my judgment it Relations Secreta Ite. President and His ¢ of State Sald te Be One son for the Publication of the Withdrawal, ween the 513 FOURTEENTI STRERT, Wasmivaros, D. C., two distinet views of the mean- ing and cffectiof Socretary Blaine's letter to Chairman Clarkson into which the com- ments of members of congress taday shape themselvos. One very large class of republicans, in- cluding those who have all_aloug been out- snoken in their befief that President Hurri- won's adminisiration has been of such a char actor as Lo give him a distinet claim upon s party for a ronomination, and upon the coun v for another term, felt no nesitancy in ox pressing their opinions. That oviniou was, in overy case, to the general effect that Scc- rotary Bluine's lettor, whils it would be ro- grotted by a large element, 'f not a majorcity, of the republican voters of the country, made the renomination of President Harrison in evitable. Many republicans of this class were quite willing to admit that Gen- eral Harrison, while very strong with the mass of the party and while possessing tho approvalof the sober thought of the country at large for his admirable conduct of pablic busine haa excited more or less antagon- 1sm among the professional party leaders and among tho men who have more or less control over the local party organizations. "This opposition, however, the fricuds of the aaministraiion assert, and not without lack of proof, arises merely from scattercd and oisorganized factions who are not content with the distribution of federal patronage, It is 1ot bucked or strengthened by any pro tonse at criticism of the wisdom, uprightness and patriotism of this administration. There- foro those mon say this opposition 1s of no welght and now that Secretary Biaine has withdrawn will speedily disappea Such is the geveral tons of comment among republicans who are distinot adher- ents of General Harrison. These men also declure that Mr. Blaine's letter will be re garded as final and absolute; that to auestion its sincerity would betray a lack of respect for Mr. Blaine himscif; that for his friends to continue to press his name for the nomination would be not only uncivil to Mr, Blaine, but openly antagonistic to General Harrison, and that such a course would only foment dissent within the party and com- pheate the work of the Minneapolis conven tion, which Mr. Blaine's letter hasso greatly simplified, What the Other Fellows Say, On tho other hand, there is manifest among the republicans who are not opposed to President Harrisoa, but who have so long cherished a personal affection and political allegiance to the great statesmau from Maine as to-find it almost impossible to surrender their desire of seeing him in the white house, an unwillingness to accept his letter to Chairman Clarkson as to the absolute and final end to Secretary Blaine as a presiden- tial possibility. It is this spirit of unwilting- ness among some of Mr. Blaine's devoted ad- mirers to take him at his word taat gives color to the sneering comments of mug- wumps aud democrats to the effect that Mr. Blaive is not sincere and his letter is ounly a move upon the political chessboard, to mask bis realintentions. Friends of Mr. Biaine do not say this. Even out and out democrats aro frank enough and honest enough to accopt the mnguage of his letter for what it stands. His Health ix I learned today from friends of Mr. Blaine, who have known for some time in a general way of his determination to aunounce in some fitting form that he would not be a candidate for tho presidency, the ons which compelled him to this conclusion. Two processes of reasoning led bim, despite the persuasion and even entreaties of some of his friends, to bis decision. The first and most potent wus the state of his health, It is safe 1o say ever since ne returned from Bar Har- bor to Washington Secretary Blaine tas been convinced in his own mind that it ‘would be literal suicide for him to under- tako the labors of a camwpaign, which would require the candidate to devote all his per- sonal energies to the fight in at least the two states of New York and Indiana, notto speuk of the laborious duties of the prosi- dentisl oftice itseif if the campaign should be successful. In this conviction Mr. Blaine was sustained by the members of his own tamily. Wasningroy Braeaw or Tiue Bee, } here or, sident Harrison, The second process cf reasoning which led Mr. Blaine to witharaw was his own honest and cordial recognition of the fact, which only reflocts honor, his friends say, tpon his own mind and hearr, that the administration of President Harrison has been of the char- acter which fully entitled the president to a renomiuation aud re-election, He has guided the affairs of the country with a firm and conservative hand through a financial crisis atalime when the least faltering of the baud at the helm might have precipitated disaster, He has entered cordially and ma: terfully upon the administration of the re- cinrocity clause of the McKinloy law, in which bie was in full accord and sympathy Wwith his secretary of state in all the detuils of adistinetively “business administ He L bas not only been eminently succossful, but “bas won the approval of the country at large. 1t is to be noted that each of these two chief reasons which led Mr. Blaine to decide upon writing this letter of withdrawal were aractor not at all dependent upon the s of current or future political events, Nothing could have happened within the past few moaths and nothing could happen betwnen now and the meeting of the Min neapolis convention nextJune which would at all affect the force of eitherof these reasons. To anyone who stops to realize this point, say intimate friends of Secretary Blaine, the error of questioning the sincerity of Blaine's tetter will become apparent. Senntor Manderson's Views, Very littie surprise was expressed by any of the Noebraska delegation av Mr, Blaine's lotter. Senstor Manderson says: “I am unot av all surprised at the Blaine lotter, ‘While he is undoubtedly a popular man in the republican party today and would, in my udguwent, receive the largest vote, 1 have been coufident for several months that the uu-remrf of state was not desirous of the nomination and would deciine to be consid oved a candidate,unless it was made apparcut 10 him thut party necessities demanded the sucrifice of personal conveniences, His letter seems final and I see wo grounds for the opinion held by #O0LO that there is [y string iu any way attached to it. Mr. Blaine has been Tully couscious of his own popularity. He could not hcl‘) beiug so when letters were pouring iu apon his urgiug bim to only keep silence and bis nowination was assured and when politicians were meeting Lim person- sonully and insisting that his nomination alone could save the party. I have no doubt that the secretary of state with a full appre- ciation of the affection felt for bim by the re- publicans generally has decided that his physical condition would not permnt of the ropetition of the canvass of 1554 and he has cepeatedly said to frieuds the party owed & cenomiuation to President Harrison, whose souservative and wise administration has en titled him tosuch recognition at their hanas.' FPresident Hurrison's Clabms, Senator Paddock said to Tne Bee corre spondent tonight: “I tniok Mr, Blaines declination sincere. Indeed, I do think be has being a candidate.” I'have therefors thought bis silence helpful to the president. “Solong as there was hope as to alr Blaine's possible candidacy his friends all over the country were active, and, s a rule, in good relation with the friends of the presi dent. This made all other candidacies im possible. If this coula have continued up to the mecting of the convention and Mr. Bluine had then declived, as 1 am sure he would nave done, no one but Mr. tarrison | could possibly bave been nominated. It is not unlikely uow that msuy candidates may come forward from aifferent states, each be- comiug & new obstacle in the way of final coucentration. The presideut has certainly not ny time serfously thought of | earned a renomination and a ra-election by his splendid aaministration, but republics have sometimes poor memories and in the presenca of these multiplied ambitions forgot- fulness may come as to the claims of au able and patriotic president.’” As Congressman MeKeigh Congressman McKelghan said not heard until now informed that Mr. Blaine had withdrawn bis name. T havsno time to read the papers. | can only say that will lose the republican art cent of th” vote througbout the Jnited States r'hat Mr. Blaine is tae most popular man in the party no une who has traveled throughout the east and west can doubt for one moment. His withdrawal clears up tho situation for the democrats and complicates 1t correspondingly for the re publicans.” Exy Here are some expressions from Towa statesmen: Representative Hays—It 15 a very cool letter and shows that Mr. Blaine valites his Iife too nighly to enter into auy useless struggles, IRepresentative Hamilton—1 endorsa the sentimeuts of Mr. Hays very heartily. Representative Dolliver—The republicans of Towa will generally regret the witharawal of Mr. Blajne from active party politics. He was the most popular_republican mentioned in connoction with the presidency in the state of Towa. Now that hoe has withdrawn, 1 cannot tell. who will be in the race so far as the Towa delegates are concerned, but I think they will support Prosident Harrison, Representative Scerley—1 have expected this letter for some months, In fact, 1 have had no doubt that Mr, Blaine would with draw from the race. Any one who has seen him recontly knows that it would ba impossi- bie for him to mako tho race. In my judg- ment it makes Harrison’s nomination certain, Morit of & Clean Administration. Representative S, B. Henderson—I am not yot ready to talk on this subject. Representative Flick—1 am satisfied that tho strongest man_ in tho republican part and especially in the west, trom _a perso: standpoint, is James (. Blaine Mr. Harri- son’s administration has been a clean one and an_excollont one, but disappointod office seekors will not rally to his standard as thoy would to_ Blaine's. 1 think Harrison will bava a solid lowa delogation in the absence of Blaine's candidacy. Reprosentative Hull—Tho withdrawal of Mr. Blaine simplitied mattors largely, and 1 feel certain that Mr. Harrison will be re- nominated. Representative Hull's 1deas Roprosentative White—T think that Mr. Blaine is acting 1n good faith, and his lotter is & manly, straightforward document. South Dakota for Harrison, Represen.ative Pickler of South Dakola says: ‘‘South Dakota will now ve for Harri- son. She was naturally for Blaine. He was her ideal. Harrison has madea fine adminis- teation and will now have a second term beyond doubt. I think Blaine 1s for Harri- son beyond doubt. Senator Altison is Not a Cay ces Tt “I had esslons of lowa Statesm Perkins—I endorse Mr. tidate. Senator Allison of Towa, who has been a prominent candidate for the presidency two or three times, said to Tir BRE corres- pondent today: * “No, sir, my name will not ve used for the presidential nomination this year for the simplo reason that I wili not bermit it. Towa was for Blaine. It is con- stitutionally made up for Blaine, but now that he is out of tho consideration I think lowa will support Hairison at Minneapolis and very cordially. He has made a magnifi- cent administration and desorves a second term.” Miscellaneous, Thomas Wussler was today apointed postmaster at Gochner, Seward county, Neb., viee G. W.

Qornered by clde Maukes o Florce Fight. Cureaco, 11 udrew Aunderson, ex-foreman of 4 butterine factory, shot his wife this afterucon, aud then, to escape ar rest, jumped off the roof of his house, a dis tanco of fifty feet, to tha ground, ouly to be coruerod immediatoly in a cellar by Police Captain Koch. Anderson refused to sur- reuder, shooting himsolf in the beast. He fired twice at Captain Koch. Both shots missod, and the captain quickly knocked him down and disarmed bhim. Anderson, as a | prelude to the extraordinary episods, had smashod all the furoiture iu the bouse and thrown his wife's dishes and Hower pots out of the windows. He is & drinkwg man, aund his wite had taken steps to obtain a divorce. Last night she, through fear of him, remaived away from the husband, and was returning under the unavailing protec- tion of two coustables when the shooting took place. Andersou will recover. The | wife's wounds wro fatal. THE _OMAHA _DAI FREE SILVER AT THE CLUB | Current Topic People Give the Question a | Partial 8haking Up. ONLY ONE SIDE WAS HEARD FROM Mr. R St houble the hat th the Salvation of Will Try 1t Again Next Week. B Mowell Argues dard Natlon The Current Topic clubhad an attack of silver coinage last night that promises to last a weok or two. Dr. Duryea was present to preside, and the attendanco filled the large committes room of the Young Men’s Christian associa tion building to its utmost ocapacity. The quostion for discussion wus this: “Is it Aavisable for the United States to Adopt the Free and Unlimited Coinage of Silver!” The afirmative of the question was opened by Mr. R. 3. Howell in a very carefully pre parod and ablo address. ko held that the antisilver men had misrepresented the 15108 in the discussion of this groat question now interesting the people from end o end of the country. They had called it a ques- tion of cheap money of no chean moaey. Mr. Howell's Idea, He declared that this was not the real question. Bimetalism did not. mean cheap money, but monometalism meant dear money, Mr, Howell said. The gold bugs had robbed the dobtor class, aud yet they were not satistied. They wanted to wine out siver as a medium of exchauge aud standard of valun so as to increase the purchasing vower of gold. If tne eold and bondholders could accomplish this they would virtually rob the United States and the debtor closses of thiy country of £500,000,000. The domonetization of silver in 1873, the speakor declacod to have been a crime. Ho illustratoa the fluctuations 1n the production of silver and gola and in the purchasing power of each and their relative vuluo by means of a map. The speaker ar- gued that the enormous accumulations of wealth by private parties had been mude possible by the manipulations of the cirou- Iating medium of tho country. He was in tavor of froc and unlimited coinage of silver. On the Other Hand. Mr. W. H. Lowe was to have made the leading address on tho negative, but he was not present. Mr. C. H. Clark took up the debate for the negative and mado some very effective points, He showed that the purchasing nowor of money varied with its plentifulness and scarcity. To increase the volume of sil- ver would décrouse its purchasing power and would conseguently mako it , despite the arguments of the free coinage advocates to hold the value of silver at a given point. Mr. D. Clem Deaver spoke upon the aftirm- ative side of the question. He made a num- ber of points that evoked applaase. Colonel IFairman was asked to speak and made a few geueral remarks germane to the subject and showed that he was thoroughly familiar with the issue in question. Will Take It Again, The time for closing had then arrived, but as soveral other gentlemen wished to have tho question discussed further ' it was decided to continue the _de- bate next Monday ovening. Mr. John M. Hazelton and Mr. J. M. Gillan were asked to present tho negative side of the question next week, and some of the numer- ous free silver advocates will take the affirt ative, After afow gentle hints from Dr. Duryea as 10 how the question ought to be handled and the various phases of the subject to bo kept in mind the club adjourned. “Champagne that has the least alcohol 15 a stimulautand restorative,” says Dr. Pavy.

Norton Bros. again asked for interest on the $1,745.15 due on grading uccount, and again the matter was referred. Robert Montgomery informed the council that & Leavenworth physician was desirous of establishing a cancer hospital in conjun tion with a city hospital 10 South Omaha, He would ask as a guarantee at ioast #0500 per year for a term of ten years. The matter was referred to Councitmen Wood, Walters and Rowley. Mr. Walters moved that all removed from off the siaewalks that were in opposition to the streat obstruction ordi- nance.

New Onieaxs, La, Feb, 8, H. Leo nard, republican nomines for governor, today made public his letter to the chairman of the state central committee accepting the nomi nation, In the lotter he states he notes the disrupted condition of the democratic party, but shows that there are only two parties in the state, the democratic and repubiican, and that as soon as the present election is over the democrats will again unite in maintain ting fraudulent possession of the state gov- ernment, “In 1877, says the letter, “‘the democratic party took forcible possession of the state government, and has ever singe maintained its apsolute power by violent and fraudulent means, The republican party of the state, though not destroyed, has been crushed and, to ail practical purposes, thore is but one political party in the state,’” Mr. Leonard goes on to show that opnos- ing political parties are wssontial to the ox- istence of free institutions: that when the peonle are free opposing political parties are invariably found, and thut where such par ties exist the people are invariably free. *It follows, therefore,” says the writer, ‘‘that where such partics are not found the people are not free." “IFor fifteen yoars,” says Mr. Leonard, “the people of Louisiana have not beeu free, and thero can be no frecdom in the state until the people are allowed to divide into political parties. The political condition of the state has retarded the development of its maguificent material resources, aud has so lowered the intellectual and moral tone of the peovle as to seriously threaten the under- lying principles on which society itself is based. ‘I'o remedy this condition 1t _is neces. sary that the republican party be allowed to maintain its oreanization, so that the effects of opposing political pirties may result in freedom for the people. The ruling class must abstain from the violent means by whicl the republican party has been repressed, and from the fraudulent methods by which the republican voters have been suppressed. All that s necessary is a peaccable election and an honest count. Woe ask for nothing more; we should submit to nothing less, In the words of the repub- lican platform, the right of every citizon to cast one vote in puolic elections and to have that vote counted, is the paramount right, 11 we aro to judge of the futura by the ox- perience of the past, the ensuing election will be determined by ‘returning officors’ and not oy votes. But many democrals throughout the stato have grown weary of the mothods by which the democratic party has maintained its usurpation. ‘They know that such methods are survivals of barbarism. They have learned at last that such methods must,eventually make children perjurers aud rufians. There is some reason to hope that the influence of many of the more intelligent members of the democratic party will be exerted to prevent tho bulldozing and the frauds at elections which have so long disgraced the fair name of Louisiana. Moreover, the disruption of the democratic party! will, to & certain ex- tent, dispel the unreasonable prejudice which Las heretofore existed in the miads of many democrats against the repablican party, and must mako it extremely difticult for return ing officers to count out tho large majority which the republicans undoubtedly bave 1n tnis state. There is some reason to believe that the political action of the people of i.ouisiana will in the future be determined by veason rather than by passion and preju dice. Lfso tho republicans will have an opportunity to show that the principies of their party ave in harmony with the interest of the state. The ¢ause of the republican pArty In Lowisiana is the cause of the people, the cause of freodom, the cause of justice, the cause of civilization.’ e Ay AN OVERALL FACTORY. bliean Omaha to Industr; Mr. M.

She tostifiod that she had been sitting up with ber sistor entertaining company. *1_heard two men talking loudly and then scuflling,” she suid, I then heard shots and saw fiashes. One seemed to be on a level; the second fiash was pointed downward, and tho last flash was upward in the air. There was no one elso on that side of the strect except the two men who were scoflling. Ono of the men ran away aftee the shooting. I coutd not see where he fled to. At the time of the shooting I saw something bright in the hand of the man who ran away.
