NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS Members of the Married Ladies' Booial Society Disagres. HOW THE EXCHANGE WAS OPERATED One Element of the Organization Assert That the Institution Has Been a Moneymaking Scheme—\Whe the Poor Coms In. © There has been division in the ranks of the Marriod Ladies’ Social society lately, and the ladios who balonged to that flourist - ing organization ara now doinz business at two stands within a stone's throw of one an- other. The orgauization was started over a yoar ago for the purpose of dispansing char- ity to the worthy poor of the city, and an ex- chango was started as an adjunct to the so- ciety, for the sale of cakes, braad eto., with the understanding that the proceeds of the sales were to be distrivuted among the poor, Befora there were any proceeds, how- over, tho ladies wao balongad to the society and who made tho articles that were to be sold receivea pay ot their own figures for the time, labor and materials that hud been used. As a consequouce the exchange never paid oxponses, and although considerable as- sistance was given tho poor n other ways, and although tho public was urged from timo to time to patconizo the exchange for the benefit of the worthy poor, the worthy poor never reaped any bonefit from the ex- chango itself, and no one profited by the scheme oxcopting the ladies themselvos. Of Iate thern has been considerabio ill feeling among the ladies, which, 1t is said, arose from a feeling on the part of some of thom that it was nct auite right for the ex- chango to bo held up before tho public as o charitable concern, when, in fact, the scheme was 1n the main a monoy-making one, A division was then agreed upon and the original society moved & fow doors up tho street to 817 Broadway and hung out its shingle. The other Iidies remained at 327 Broadway, and entered into an agreement with the agent of A sewing machine company at that number to furnish u clerk and tho necossary room, and in fact, to carry on the business of the exchunge, for 15 por cent of tho sates. ‘The 1adies expect to carry on benevolent work as usual, but under a different namo and with- out any connection with the Ladies Ex- chang or the Married Ladies society. e S GREAT BANKRUPT SHOE SALE, Commencing Today Saturday Cut This out And bring it with you to the great bankrupt sale of boots, shoes and_slip- pers, 521 Broadway, Council Blufls, (0ldFoster building, Iverett block).

ALL SORTS OF: FOLKS WERE THERE s Every Statlon of “Life Represented In the Throng That Gwthered at the High School Grounts to Open the State Oampaign. The opening gun,f tne campaign was fired by Governor McKinley of Ohio at the High school grounds Friday evening and its intona- tions were such as will hardly cease to re- verberate over the battle ground of Ne- braska until the last ballot is counted and the pending strugglo for political supromacy is at an end. It was at once one of the largest. and most enthusiastic mass meetings ever hetd in Nebraska. A beautiful moonlit night, Inspiring music, a speaker of more than national prestige and an audieuce such as was never before seen at a political moeting In Omuna combined to do honor to the city and to its distinguished guest. The audience itsolf was an inspiration and wn ovation. No orator could look over such a concourso as gathered to hear Major Mc- Kinley Friday night without & thought of pride. A largo platform had;been constructed at the southeast corner of tne Hizh school building and around 1t fully 25,000 people listened to the great advocate of protection. Camo 1n Great Throngs. Tho exorcises had been advertised to begin at 7:30 0'clock, and loug before that hour the 500 chairs in front of the stand were occu- pied. The people lined the sidewalks and from oach sldo of the grounds a continual stream of pushing, jostling humanity was elbowing its wi toward the building. Loug before dark the vacant spaco seemed nearly full and still thousands were wedging their wav into the human mass. At S8 o'clock he entire south siope was an eddying, kaleidoscopic sea of faces, ana they wero faces iuto which any orator might be proud to look. All Classes Were There. The electric lights that bad been hung over the speakers’ platform cast their shim- mering radiance not alone uvon the rugged countenances'of the mechanic, the artisan and the laborer but revealed the flower of the social und business circles of’ the Gate City. There were represeuted the rrole:- sional man, the banker, the successful mer- chant and the leader of socioty. 1t was such an audience as only a similar occaslon could produce, where umnlo{or and the employed, the wealthy man of leisure and the laborer who toiled through the hot summer days to carn bread for his wite and little ones met to heur that wEich was of equal importance to them all. And they brought their wives with them, for mingied with the masculine array were bundreds of danty summer costumes crowned by fair fages that watched as in- teutly for the arrival of the spoaker as though their interest carried a ballot with 1t. It was a remarkably orderly crowd, too, and the proccedings were uninterrupted save by the rumble of the eable trains and the up- plause that rose and fell under the spell of the speaker’s magnatic utterances. At the right .of the platform a hundred carriages were grouped. They were nearly all occupied by ladies; and special interest centered around the one in which sat Mrs. McKinley in company with Mrs. General Cowin, Along with Govérnor McKinley. At 8 o'clock the Second Infantry band took seats on the, platform and its inspiring music entertained the crowd. which was be- coming somewhat Impgtient for the arrivai of Major McKinloy. A fow minutes afterwards the vgg‘lrnor appoared . aud was _ greeted with & -salvo of cheers as he proceeded to the platform. He was_accompanied by Mayor George P, Bemis, Edward Rosdw; Hon. W. J. Con. nell, Judge C. R. Scott, Anarew Rosewater, Thomas Swobe,P. L. Perrine, Ralph Breckin- bridge, Charies J. Green, and others, and Rev. J. G. Tate of Hastings, the repub- lican candidate for lieutenant overnor, was also recoguized in the crowd and escorted to a seat on the platform. It was some time before the applause oc- casioned by the presence of tha orator of the ovening had subsided, and then Charles J. Green stepped .o the frontof the platform, aid : Iellow citizens, I have the honor of fu- troducing to you Ohio’s distinguished states- man and governor, William McKiley.” Greeted with Cheers, Then the cheers broke out again ana Gov- ernor McKinley was enthusistically wel- comed as he stepped forward. The moment ho began to speak the most intense silence wus preserved and excepting when the logical points of his aadross elicited the audible approbation of tho audience tho speuker was heard with the most carnest at- tention. Governor McKinley's address was such as wus expectea from the man who wore than any other had reason to be familiar with tho principles of the great republican doctrine of protection. 1t was a concise and effective presentation of the differences between tho two great political parties on this important question. The speaker disdained to use tho tactics of buncombe und sophistry 0 often affeciea by stump speakers. He “reiied on a plain statement of 1ndisputable facts and the logic of his arguments was irresistible, He deait with the subject not as & politiclan but with the genius of a statesman. His roasoning was that of a master of the ques- tion who saw in 1t first of all the bevefits to accrue to the masses of the veople. He did not generalize to any extent upon superficial applications, but covsidered tho tanff ques- tion in its broaaest sense, and his arguments most effectualiy demolished the puny ef- forts of the opponents of the protective system. xpiatning the Differencos. Tn his introduction Major MeKinley said that ho did not come to appeal to the preju- dices of his audience nor to excite their pas- sions, but to presont simply aud frankly the differesce between the two great political parties of the country on tho tariff question, Ho defined this existing difference in & man- ner that in a few senten made clear the theorles of each party. The dowmocratic party st00d for a tariff for revenue, while the re- publican party maictained one for protection to American industries and Awmerican labor as well. The democratic doctrine imposed n tariff on articles which could not be producea in this country, while the republican priaci- plo was exactly ppposite. The protective tariff, while raising rovenue, discriminated in favor of the domestic producer and aguinst the foreign producer. Practical Protestion llustrated, Lifting the earthen ‘pitcher that stood on the table beside him, Major McKinley said: ““We put @ turiff of 85 per cont on that piteher. That wariff bhs & tendeccy to dis- courage foreign imporiations and to encour- age domestic manufacture, It was put there for that purpose. 41 know it, for I put 1t thare myself.” At this point ‘the 'speaker was forced to stop before the hdrricene of applause that followed. As soonf as quist was rostored ho continued: i “I put it there in 1888 and 1t has fulfillea its purpose, We now have the finesi pottery Works suywhere”in ' the world and this piteher is cheaper‘thin it ever was before." Major McKinley dwelt at somo length upon the benelits that the protective tariff brought to farmers, und ju'the midst of a seutence someone iu the rear of the audience lnter- ruptad by u question i whict only the word “Eogland" was audible. “Ican't quite hear you, my friend,” re- plied the governor, **bat you are evidently a democrat because you are talking of Bog- land,” and the wterlocutor subsided, while the aualence voluuteered anotber volley of applause. Pertinent Facts on Tia, Soon after someono shouted “tin" and the lrflkfll‘ ®ave him the required ioformation. He said thatthere were now thirty-seven tin plate factorios in tuis country representing an luvestment of §3,000,000, Ioside of three yoars we would produce more than one-half of the tin plute used in the United States. “Aod don't you think,” he econtinued, “that whea 50,000 men are ewployed iu the 2--SIXTEEN PAGES tin plate industry, thero will bea demand for another pound of pork and Another bushel of wheat from the farmersof No. braska?” In concluding, Major McKinley said: “Ihope that the convention that met in your capital eity yestorday and today has organized victory.” What I am talking about d tho principles thac I present aro repro- sonted by Benjamin Harrison, our candidato for president, ana Lorenzo Crounse, whom weall hope to see the next governor of Nebraska.' At the name of Harrison tho audieuco cheered tumultuously and at the aliusion to the republican candidate for governor of Nebraska tno enthusiasm was intensified, bats were flung in the air and the cheers died away only to be renewed again and again, In the midst of the demonstration (Gov- ernor McKinley was escorted to his carringe and tho vast audienco gradunlly dispersed, Governor McKinley aud party doparted this morning on tho Burlington train for Denver. The great protectionist was de- lightea with his sojourn in Nebraska, B vy SPARKS OF A Lot of sw! The Bomis Park Gun club held its weekly shoot yesterday afternoon, and notwith- standiug the fact that tho mercury was bolling out of tho top of the tube, there was o largo attendance and the usual fine sport and enthusiasm. The grounds have been greatly improved since tho previous shoot.
