Was Willing to Scttle. Tik BER's report states that as far back as last December 1 was “apparently anxious that no acconnting shoula take place.” On the contrary, 1 assert that at a joint meeuing of tho committees above referred to [ pub- licly notified the members that 1 was ready for a_seitlement; 1 had tho vouchers and chiecks present. and showed them. Nothing move was doune until the early part of tms year, when tho executive committes met at he iRepublican loague headquarters, Atthat meeting ! bad my vouchers and checks and notificd the committee that I was ready to settle, but upon motion of Mr. George Smith the mattor was roferred to the auditing com- wittee. "T'he auditing e appear before mittee never notificd me them until a er from warded to mo at Lead uotifying mo to appoar th of August, 1 receive one letter from Richard Smith several months before requesting me to send the checks to the auditing committee.

Again, 1 tad wu cheeks in favor of Mr. Smith for 0, and subsequently whon 1 demanaed an acconnting from him he refused to give it, saying that ho hnd exponded wmoney in such a way that nobe of the committee or pubiic should know anything about iv, whereas I bad knowledge that he had squan dered the funds at the Blks club and othor places mentioned in my remarks last Sutur- y evening to the central committee, and Th's fact and other auces have led me to feel that Mr. nith in his aggressivo attitude toward mo was endeavorine to draw the fire oft from limscif. I have always been ready to meet the audiiing committee, but I do not consider that Mr. Smith had any right to demand my vouchers, us e was not a mewmber of that comumittee, Not Out for Their Health, In this connection T may relate the history of tho demand for the 31,000 above reforred to, us 1t will ve of interest at th timo, 1 was invited to the Elks olub by My Smith, to have a game of high five with' himself, Dave Mercer and Mr. Sudborough, Iaccepted tho vitation aud during the progress of the game Mr. Dave Mercor sugges ed bt 1 should crchomge chocks with Mr. Sudbirough; that they weren ¢ in politics for their health. Our fesuvities lasted for aboutan hour, at the conclusion of which Mr. Sudborough drow a check for 210« ut of th county fund in favor of Dave Morcer, who paid the bilis. The following day the demand for 81,000 was made upon me by Dave Meacor, Dick Smith and 7. K. Sudborough. 1 perempiorily re- fused to pay the amount, which was like an iceberg to our social and fricndly relations, and from that time on I received no further invitations to the Blks cluo. In regzard to the $500 order in favor of Mr. Sudboroush, I have this to say, that it was turned over with a number of other ordoers (not less than fifty) by Secretary Kelly soon after tho election. 1 drew a chéck for that and all otner orders in my hands on the 13th of November, 1891, and having drawn the cheels T had a right to credit myself on the statement turned over to tho auditing com- mittee. The are of the chairman on that order is sumilar to that on othor orders, I will say that i bad made up my mind not to deliver the #00 check if called ior, but to stato my reasons for not doing so to the auditing committee. There were some other cheoks which 1 also intended to trent in the ame way uutil 1 knew they were just claims. ., tho howover, He Charges Somn Mistakes. Tue Ber's report suys further that ‘“the treasurer showed cheeks amounting to about $200 that had not been endorsed by the pavees,” etc., and “he (Stuht) was unable o account for tho remuining amount of neatly 00, and the committee was com- petled to eharge it up to him," ote. The reporter who wrote the foregoing sim- piv made a blunder thay is sclt-evident on reading the report of the auditing commit- tee, dated September 16, 1802, which states plainly, gving the detailed figures that T showed uncashed checks for %0, which with the item of postaze aund the balance showu on my statement already in the hands of tho auditing committee, made the balance in my hands, as reported by the committeo, of §124.00, Further ou in the article of ik By, the borter draws another conclusion us fol- s: “No one pretends to believe that the scks for payment of the claims axainet tha sittee huve been allowed to remain in Stulit’s bands uncalled for vy the creditors for uearly a year, the explanation being that thoe statesman has recently deposited the funds in the bank to meot the bills and has drawn tho checks with tho ancient date- marks to take 0s wuch of tha curse as pos- sible off hix record us custodian of the cen- tral committec's cash,” s statement can best bo refuted by the following certificate from the Commercinl Natiounl bank: Ensgsy Stuor, : Doar Sir=The balance remaining iton the books Yours truly, HOPKINS.

Immediately on the conclusion of the busi- ness for which the county conveution was called, Chairman Richard Smith of the city central committee asked tho delegates to the city convention to take their seats, and the body that was to nominate five memvers of the Board of Education proceeded to effect atemporary organization by clecting C. P Halligan chairman, A.

While here he visited Taz Bep, giving bis views upon the situstion his state. In speaking of 1t ho said: “The convention which has just closed was the most harmonious that 1 ever saw in the state, and it was one which convinces the veopie that the republicans are in the fight this year. It was held at Laramie and was composed of 103 delegates, ninety-three of whom were present, although some of them, 10 reuch that city, had to travel more than 1,000 miles. We nomiunated the best ticket that has ever been put up in the state and one around which all classes can rally.

Senator Cary was presout and sald that he never saw the people take so great an interest in a convention as did the republicans this year.

The Academy of Musio could not accommo- date the crowd that tried to get into it. Five minates after ¢ho doors wece oponed every bit of space in the building was taken, Several hundraed ladies were In the audienco. Senator Hill, Congressman W. C. Breckin- ridgo of Kentucky and other speakers were not expected until § o'clock, and in the mean- timo the assemblage kitled time listoningi o the music and by examining the decorations. When Serator Hill and the other speakers ontered the theater they were groeted most enthusiastically, the applause lasting until the party had mounted the stage and taken their son Chairman Thomas E. Pearsall of the cam- palen commitiee calied the assemblage to ordor in a short speech, stating that demo- crats everywhero in the state of Now York wore at peace among themselves, and never more thoroughly united than at this hour. He urged all democrats to join 1n making the majority of Cleveland and Stevenson the largest over given in the county of Kings. Congressman Coombs was introduced as the chairman of the ovening. Mr. Coombs presented Senator David B. Hill, with the words: “He 1s a democrat.” Cries of “Hill, Hill," greetea him, while Now York's junior senator arose and stood, with smiling features, while the audience showered ap- plause upon him. Senator Hill prefaced his remarks by the assertion, “I am & democrat,” and then proceeded to give his roasons for boing one. The tariff question occupied tho areatest part of his speech, and he endeav- ored to show wherein the democratic doc- trine of “a tariff for revenue only, with in- cidental protection,” would prove n greater blessing 1o the country and its peoplo than the ropublican policy of protection and reci- procity. He quoled many authorities to sus tain his position, among them Grover Cleveland. The' existing tariff laws, e declured, were oppressive and un- just, and owed their existence to mis- representation and fraud; that they had been enacted in the interest of a favored fow tothe detriment of the many. The tariff, he suid, was tho principal,. and really tho only issue, in the coming campaign, aeclar- iug tbat the stand taken by the domocratic party, as set forth in its national platform, offercd the only true solution of the problem. He next paid attention to the *‘force bill,” declaring that tho republican party was irrevocably committed to its passuge, and denounced it as a piece of political foonsh- ness only equaled by .its mendacity. His remarks on this subject wero of tho usual kina and were interlarded with flattoring allusions 1o the south, and the rights of tho American people. - s State polities . s1@ then briefly touvched and tho senator concluued his spoech by a stirring appeal for harmony and unity. Mr. Hill's speoch was listened to atten- Ouly at long intervals was ho inter- rupted by applause.. The excitement in tne audience, however, was noticcable as the senator drew towards tre close of nis ad- dress. He had spoken for over an hour and notonce had he mentioned the name of Cleveland. The anxiety of his hearers was plainly apparent. “T'he excitement increased as the sonator stated that the old suard would do 1ts duty, and a perfaoct hurricane of applause, yelis and cheers, broke forth when after ono grand phrase of deepost meaning, he closed with the names, “Cleveland and Stevenson.” . Mr. Breckinridge madé a long and forciblo speech, The meeting adjourned after a brief speech by Lieutengnt, Governor Shee- han. 4 ’ 4 M/KINLEY ON TATE SITUATION. He Talks Politics to # Reporter of a Penn- sylvania Paper. Prirrspurg, Pa., Sept. 19.—Governor Will- iam McKinley, jr., of Obio was interviewed at Somerset, Pa., today by a Chronicle-Tele- eraph reporter, referring to the political out- look. The governor said: “The party in New York is firmly united. Thero are no factional quarrels, The state is prosperous, as is_the wholo country, aud the republicans of New York ask no more. They know from whence their prosperity proceeds and are well coutented to see it p petuated. “Now for the northwestern states, I don’t believe the democrats will carry a singlo one. The republicans aro well organ- 1zed out there and they are not likely to be caugit napping. Ta the silver states, in Colorado, and other states, there 1s a Lot campaign go- ing on. I have no prediction to maie as to the outcome except that they will not go demccratic. Why should they go democratic? You may be sure that the silver states will neyer support Grover Cleveland. But supposo the domocrats or the people's party ugmmd carry the silver states, it would not affect the ganeral result.” Do you look for any republican gains in the south, governor{” 41 do not.

WHITEHEAD AND KEM DEBATE Ropublican and Alliance Principles Dis- oussed in the fixth Distriot. SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF PROTECTION Fifteen ffundred Citizens of BuMilo County Greet the Candtdates—Opening of the Congressional paign Kenrn News. oa olitica at Keanxey, Nob,, ept. 10, pecial Tele- gram to Tie Bee.|--Tho political guns of tho. big Sixth congressionat district were fired off tonight here for tho first ti Tho alliance gun, O, M. Kom, was subjected to a regular fusilado of arguments from tho ro- publican howitzor, Hon. James \V. White- head, republican nomineo for congross, The Modol opera house was crowded early by those who fearful of being left on the outside and by 6 o'clockat leest 1,500 people were hud- dled togother to witness the political oxeeu cution of Mr, Kem. Kem was in o la Sulli- van coudition, having boen coached the greater part of tho day by W. L. Greeno. Tho immense crowd appeared to ba about evenly divided in reference to politics, the independents for the greater poart occupying the front seats, Chairman Matt Dougherty of the Sixth congressional opened up headquartors here toduy and had all in roadiness for a succods- ful meoting. Tno Midway band discoursed sweet musio instead of & dirge, which would have pleased the indepoudent aucitors, Mr. Dougherty presided. When Whiteliead was introducod a whoop went up from o thousand throats aud hos- tilities began, Defended the Party Well, Whitoheud said no more fitting place could have been selocted for opening tho campaign thau beautitul IKearnoy, snd then vuid a tribute to the prosvorous condition of the city and surrounding country. Ho said that the challengo by Mr. Kem was published in the World-Herald before it was served on tim, but he was here to aefend tho prin- ciples of the republican party. Tho speaker roviewed tho history of the republican party, the prinziples of which, he declared, are as broad as thoovents of humanity and as im- mortal as the names of Lincoln, Graut and Appomattox. Touching on tho tarifl issuos hosald that the prosperous condition of the country was due to the proteciion that had been thrown apout Americans- He denounced the inde- pendent piank of a tariff for the cxpense of ap economical management of the govern- ment and said circumstances did not warrant a tariff for reveuuo only and followed the statement up with a convincing argument. Mr. Whitehead referred to tho history of the financial condition of the state and its rapid development in twenty-fivo years and said it was due to tho wise policy of the re- publican party by giviug free homes toits | poople. He said: **We are on the verge of moral and material ruin! Such a statement emanating from the city of Omaba, twenty- five vears of age, with 163 factories, the pro- ductlast year of which was £5,000,000, is a libol upon the prosperous business meu of tho state. All the industries of the country have revived, and the country has been the most prosperous of any on earth.” What Protection Has Done. Ho continuoed with historical evidences of the above statement. *We have oreated a market for our own products by protection, which built up industries in dofiance of cheap tabor abroad,” ho said. “Forty-two tin manufactories are already the result of protection, while Bogland, which had a mo- nopoly of the tin industry, only had ninety- five. The republican party, by its logisia- tion, has caused the enormous sum of $l,- 240,847,017 to be paid as pensions to union soldiers.” = 'he money question was bandied in & masterly manner. On this subject he said: *'Thero have been evils on hand from Adam down 10 the hour that Kem challenged me. The political party in power has been blamed for all the evils, In 1500 lne drouth brought into existeace the people’s party and secured a majority in both houses of the legislaturo. 'Paxes wore high, the titlo to most of the land in the western counties was vested in the government, and expenses had to be borne, Their first’ movement in the stato capitol was to scek to obtain offices to which they had not been elected, costing the people $9,700. When the curtain droppad for the last time on the scene of reform, a stato senator mado bis escape from tho avenging mnds of his constituents. *‘As o neighbor of Mr, Kem, I believe him to bea man of honor, out his public record was not such as secored any reform Lo gov- ernment. His bauking bill; had it become a law, would have aided the capitalists of tho country and his tree claim bill, had it become a law, would have been the meaus of many poor people losiug their claims.”” He continued to send center shots at Kem and the audience roared. Mr. Kem's View of the Situation Mr. Kem was introduced ’'mid grea% demonstrations. The statesman from Cus- ter county accepted the situation with a smile, He said it was not his purposo to condemn the country nor either of the par- ties. He admitted the country had mude great advancement, but was not willing to accept the prolective theory. 1t was due to the energy of the American” oitizens and the groat natural resources, Ho continued: “*We are only on the verge of progress. We haye doveloped wealth bo- voud any nation, but statisticians fail 10 sy Wwho owis it. The dissatistied are complain- ing of this condition all over the land. 1f no wroug exists the people’s party has no mis- sion. So long us the evils of government exist I will be a calamity howler.” Ho quoted tha statement of Lincoln 1n the durk days of rebeilion, in which he said cor- portions were being enthroned and the money power was belng concentrated, Kem Lickled the ox-soldiers by saying that soldiors nover received more moncy thau they deserved. *“The Filty-secona congress, of which I was & member, made more appro- priations for the soldier than any otber,” he said. Hero ho digressod and sa1d mortgages had got hold of the people and the bony fingers of the farmor were laboring to pro- tect their homes. He said mortgages were being canceled, but declared it was by shor- iffs’ sales, He reviewed the financial situa- tion by figures that would make & voior fall back on his algebra. Exclamations of “Give it to’em,” “Amun, “You bet,” ete., came from the independent partof the houso, He said it 1s a fact thav we are compelled to borrow ascheme of the capitalists ts filch interest from the people and intimated to his farmer friends that the low price of wheat 15 due to the McKinley bill.” Republicans gave the raliroad corpora- tions land and did not enact laws to take it away from them as they did the farmer. Defended His Record, Ie said lis record in congress was a mat- tor of ofiicial record aud that he would stand or full by it. Referring to the railroad bill ho said it could be seen if desired. The crowd nowled, “Read it,”’ vbut it cawe not, His bankiniz bill he said would give the manage- mont of the people's money iuto their power. Mr. Kem dofined himself on the Pickler bili by sayiug he objected to it because it pro- holders could not ac- quiroa title after four years unloss they were residents of the state. There were only nine independents in congress te sald and 1f they had bad a majority they would havo re- duced taxation one-third. He declared that » person could go 1to the balis of congress, talk @bout the American | flag and get through any kind of a steal and the tax payers would settle tho bill. Thus | Kem wandered for one hour and fifteen min- utes, Whitehiend closed the dissussion 1n a short epocch and paralyzed the friends of Mr. | Kem. Ho ridiouied Kem's statemont that the government gavo wild lands to home- stondors and then made a law to take it | away from them and said that the action of the people’s party had driven capital out of the stato, farmers could not borrow money | and the looal land oftice receivers were nott | fied to carry such people over. another year. Whitehoad piled up convincing arguments | amid cheers and was paying a fitting tribate | to General Van Wyek on tho ratlrond grants when timo was called by the independents 1n tho audience. MORTON AY NUOLN, Demooratic Cumpaign Opened nt Lineoln Without Much Demonstration. nx, Neb, Sept. 19.—|Special Tele m to Tiue Bre Sterling Morton, nocratio candidate for zovernor, openod tis campaign in the Capital city this eve- ning. Whe meeting was hardly @ compli- ment to tho distinguished candiaate, fog tho Funke opera houss in which it was hold was not full by any means, Thore was a choerless array of ompty seats in the front purt of the house, whilo the broad cir- | cling galierios contained but sixty-four men | and boys. On the stage when the curtain rose wero Mr. Morton, Mr. Sawyor and throo | reporters. Mr. Morton was fntroduced by | A, J. Sawyer, wbo unblushingly predicted the trinmphant election of the man who was about to speak. Mr. Mortou was 11 good voice, and aftor a few casual remarks by way of introduction he | launched into s well worn, time honored | free trado spesch with which' the peoplo of | Nebraska have been familiar ever since ho commenced to run for governor more than @ quarter of @ century ugo. After expatiating upon tho the blussings which would _attend tho udoption of free trado, Mr. Morton turned from fallacy to fact, and for upwards of an bour gave his andienco one of the clearest nud most logical discussions of tho tinancial issues of the day that has boan heard in Liucoln for pernaps | many yoars He stated at thooutset that ! forod with the repubi agreed with thom upon the | Ho then expressca nis régret that ho was | compoiled 1o tuko 1ssuo with his youug Iriond, Congressuian Bryan, but he bolieved ho was in lino with his party. After this d ail the falla- L RE d 2 he dif- s on tho tariff he money question. tho beautiful structures rased by Bryan were ruthlossly demolished by slodge ham- mor blows. Holding up the_bright pictures of the prosperity which Mr. Bryan has vromised should follow the free coin- ago of silver, tho spoaker scraped away tho paint avd varnish and tore the canvas to shreds. He assaulted every vosi tion, auswered every argument. and exposed every fallacy of the young congressman, and the ‘same fickle democratic audience’ that threo weeks ago in thosamo house applanded Bryan’s free silver eloquence until the roof was started, tonight applauded Mr. Morton’s to the echo.’ Of course Mr. Bryan’s namo was unmentioned, but the audieuce appre- ciated the fact all the more, They were listening to one half of a joint | debate and thoy will await with eager ex pectancy for Mr. Bryan to come forward with the other haif. Mr. Morton denied that silvor was secretly demovetized in 1373 and quoted history and records prove that it was demonctized in Ho usserted that the free comago of would drive gold out of the United and directly affect every farmer and labor- ing man the country. He denied that thore was a demand for more money and as- sortod that the people of Nebraska had 530, 000,000 on deposit outside of the cities of Lin- colu and Omaba, I'ree coinage of silver, he said, would Mexicanizo the United State But if Mr. Morton's roast of Bryan was sovore his lashing of General Van Nyck and the people’s independont party was merci- less. e asserted that the decline in the value of farm products in this country was due to the workings of the homestead law, which had transformed the wilderncss of wostern prairies into productive gardeus, to | the trebled urea of farms within the past quarter of a -century, to the vast improvements in farm machinery by which one'man could now produce as much as six twenty-five vears ago. Tho demand for products has not kept pace with the supply, aud the values of farm products have de- creased on account of these things., The profits have not disappearcd, they have siply been transferred from the producer 10 the consumer until today the world is bet- ter fed and oftener than ever before in its history. The success of tue alhiance party this fal , asserted Mr. Morton, would drive eastern capital from the stato and irreparably injure tho credit of the state. 1t would mean b solute death to tho best interests of the state, Mr. Morton also made o porsoual ns- sault_on Senator Van Wyck, expluin- ing how the latter had = secured his land in_ Otwe county. He challenged any friends of the indenendent candidato to point to a single line of law iw= favor of the people that had been supported by Van Wyck. There wasno word too severe in MF. Morton’s somowhat oxtansive vocabu- lary to apply to Vao Wyck and the party of which he 15 tho leader. At the conclusion of his address Mr. Morton stated his willingness to answer any guestion that might bo asked him. One gentiemun pre punded n serios of quostions on the silver is- sue and the answers were quick, decisive and convincing. - Finally an excited individual who_claimed to have voted for Governor Boyd two vears ago, aroso ond asked Mr. Mortor if ho would have vetoed the Newberry bill. Mr. Morton endeavored to evade the quostion by saying that be would do justico 10 the rairoads and the people. Tho man rofused to uccept the answer and porsisted in bis pownted quer.es. Mr. Morton finally waked eloguent and with swelling bosom an- nounced that if all the offices and salaries in tho gift of the peopleof the state were rolied iuto one and offered to him he would not ac- cept them if by so doing he had to sacritice his convictions of right, e would make no specific promises, ho said, even if by so do- ing be could be elected tomorrow. ple's Party Losing Ground.
