Wehster Exposes the Fallucy of What the Independents Have Been Hugging us a Finunciul Panncen —1he 's Workings, OAkLAND, Neb., Oct, 22, —(Sgecial to Tne Bek.|—The republican rally here was a de- cided success. Hon. John L. Webster of Omaha addressed ono of the largest gather- ings of voters cver scen in this locality. Tho enthusiasm maupifested was a fair cstimato of the merits of the aadress. Mr. Webster spoke substantially as follows: Tho popubists declwe in their platform that they want mouey aistributed by the government direct to the people, al a tax nov excoeding 2 per cent and tbe amount of cir- culating medium creased to not less than $50 per capita, Every mao in Nobraska who has o mortgage on his farm would expeet under this policy 1o borrow the money from tho government aL2 per cent per anium to pay off bis mortgage dedt. 1 have reud in the newspapers toat General Van Wyck, the alllunce candidato for governor, pretends to be very poor, and that his palaco m o the city’ of Washugton only cost $§16,000 "anda s plastered over with o mortgago for §15.000, 1 Generul Van Wyck had the scheming ability 10 borrow £15.000 on . piece of property only worth £16,000 1t is an example in financo that no other wman that wants to borrow wmoney ean vqual, However, he rents that alaco to the chief justice of tke United States and probably gets an incowe from it equal to 6 per cent Upon the cost. The mo ment the subtreasury bill should become a law, the general would be one of the first ap- plicants to tho treasury to borrow 15,000 to pay off that mortgage. He would ask the government to loan him the money at: per cent to off the mortgage and the dif ference between 2 per cent and 6 per cent, the income ho now gets, would represent to bim a clear profit of 4 per cent ou tho trans- action, Butthatis not allofit, A circu- lating medium of &0 per capita would only ullow for the stats of Nebraska 50,000,000 and the §15,000 that Geueral Van Wyck would borrow from tha government to poy off vis mortgage would represent tho thare of 300 individuals at €50 per capita, Two hundred und nivety-nine of you allisnce peo ple who would vote for Van Wyck for gov- ornor would tud that the general bad got your share of the govern ment money and you would bo left whistling Out on the prairies to tind as wuch fault With the government as vefor: It is & Grand Sche All your candidates for congress would ulso rush to the treasvry 1o borrow wmoney B2 percentto puy off the wortgages on their property. ‘Ihio larger the man's mort- E8g0 the more money ho would make by the speculation. The larger his mortgage the iarger the number of people would be who would not get any wonev, After your candidate for governor and your candidates for congress uud other siato cficers bad got their first dip into the publio tressury and paid off their mortgages and found it was & great financial scheme, it would suddenly occur to them that the way 1o make money was to buy real estato and lot it yield an incowe of 6 p t ana put a mortgage ou it for substantially all it was worth to pay the purchase price and then borrow the money from the government al 2 per cent and mako a clear profit of 4 ver cent on the speculation. By o repetition of that process General Vau Wyck could keep buying up farm after farm until bo owned the whole state of Nebraska and pay the entire purcnase wouey by bor- rowing the mouey from the gov ton 2 o ook mortgages. Eveu Jay Gould in the rightest davs of bls youth, when he dreamed oleonie schiemes 1 finance, uever con- of s0 grand & speculation 1o wake ty Dollars Per Capita Wouldn't Go'Round 1 fiud by lookibg over tho census reports that the farm mortgages in lowa are $1 000,000, the farm mortgages 1 Kansas & 000000, the farm mortgnges in illnois 10 000,000, and the farm mortgs, in Nehraska are £00,000,000, nggregating 515,000,000 for four states, 'The civeulating medium of the United States at %0 per capita would only be a littlo over $3,000,000,000, These four states would get more than ' one-sixtu of all tha money to e issued by the goneral government pay off the farm mortgages usione. What would the other forty states do 1o get cnough money to pay off their farm mortgages! But that is notail of it. The farm mortgages in Ne- braska ageregate $00,000,000, wud 350 per capita woula only allow this state £0,00),000, wiiich 15 but a hiitle moro than _half enoush to puy off the farm mortzages in Nebrasia 1o allisuce people and the demoeratic party have both declared that they are op posed to cluss legisiation. There are peoplo who own Lown lots that are also covered by J!IH)TI}I:I).‘I"(. 1 find that the town lot mort- | gages in lowa amount to £0,000,000; in Kan- to sas, 505,000,000 in Tlinois, $216,000,000 aud Nebraska, ,000,000,, Thus you wi see thet the mortzages upon town lots in the state of Nobraska, being vrincipally in ! Omana_ and Lincoln, wouid take sub | stantially all the money under the popu list platform to be wllowed to the state of Nobraska. If you are opposed 10 class logistation, the peopie who own Lo va lots are entitied 1o this money to pay off their mortguges just as much s the farmers aro entitled to tuis mouey to pay off tho farm mortgages. It would requite about £100,000,000° to pav off the mortgages upon the town lots in the four states uamed, or one-seventh of all the woney 1o be issued by the government. Add together the mort guges upon the town lots and farms in the four states named aud we find that tne four states would requiro oue-third of all the cir- culating medium of the natiou and only two- thirds would be left for the forty remaining stutes. Opposed to Class Logislat But, whereas, you are opposed to class leg- 1 lution, let us look o little further into tho scheme. Th are a good mauy honest people in the state of Nebraska who are just s wuch in debt 88 the furmers, but who do not own lands. There are moen with hervds of cattle who are in debt, here are tho men that are operating miis, und tnero are the men working in factories who ure in debt millions of dollars, ‘They aro entitled to just as much con- sideration and favoritism as the farmers and the lot owuers and they would want to bor- row mouey upon their property to pay of thoir debis. S0 is tho poor bul honest farmer who live: oo rented lund. His wife is just as dear to bim as the wife of vour car didate for governor is to him. They hay children dependent upon them for support, who are entitled Lo just 4s much sywpathy aud consideration us ure the ehildren of your candidates for congress, Having no lands to wortgage, they have morigaged their horses, their wagons, their plows and their bouseliold furuiture, ‘he money lender stands at the door demanoig the discharge, of that mortgage. Tho poor man is uuable 1o pay. e looks into the fuces of his loved children and into the fuce of his zuxious wite, and be bolds up kis haods and appeals to the government and proclaims that he is Just us bonest as his neighbor wuo owns u farw. He nas toiled just as bard as the man who owns a farm, ho has toiled just as hord as the man who owus 430 acres of land. He has tho simo rights as an Awerican citizen, clothed with all tho righis af iudividual sovereigaly as any otber wan, uuder the constitution of one common coun- try. He appeals Lo the general goverament to loan him money 10 pay off his wortgage, With & voice as eager and hoart s honest a3 thatof any other man, and whereas you are opposed to class legislation, his appeal must o heard, Whew you undertake thus to add to the wortgages upon the farms, the mortgaves upon the town lots and the awouat of woney that must be loaned to the honest laboring poor who do not own lands you fiud tnat the money required in the state of Nebraska alone to supply the wants and demuuds of the people wouid re- quire six Limes as much money as could be allotted to the state of Nebraska under the Populista’ platiorm. But, whoreas, you are and it would require so much woney to pay off the mortgage debt of the individuals in the United States that the government would bave to set its printing machives at work running off £l vills with the rapidity with awbich Tiue Osmany Bee and World-Herald run off their morning editions, and the quan- tity of money would become so abundant that four yards of it would not be worth any moro in the mariet than of these morn- ing papers, 5 cents apieco. How to Get Mo ‘The republican party has devised tue only scheme to furnish money Lo tha country, and suflicient money, on a substantial basis. The McKinley tariff, wuich the democratic party denounces as a fraud upon the millions of laborers, is a meaus of iucreasing ho circulating ' medium, which, if * per- mitted o go on undisturbed for the next thirty = years, will give to the country sufticient money Lo satisfy the most avaracious, Under the Tree trade doctrine of the democratic party prior to 1500, the bal ance of trade was always against this coun- try. Millions upon miilions of our gola and silver was shipped out of the country eyer year Lo pay for products we imported from foreign countries, The gold wiues of Cali- fornia and the silver mines in the mountains were not able to yield metal fast cnough, and the winis were Hot able to miot it fust enough to supply the demand of our importers. When'the war came on we found that our free trade peoplo had shipped out of ou country gold and silver to pav for products which they bought abroad until the treasury was depleted and the credit of the nation wus gone, and there was scarcely suflicient mouey left in the treasury to pay the salary of James Buechauan, and when he appealed to cougress to issue 20,000,000 of bonds they had to sell tho last of them for 85 cents | on the dollar, The rcpublican party took possession ol the genoral governmont and established what they call a wur tariff, This began to cut off ihe large importations | of morchandise. 1t cut off the shipping ubroad of American mouey, and from IS0 down o tho present date the balance of trade has been In favor of America, with the exception of two years, S and 1850, When the McKinley tariff bill went wuto effect it rescued America from that large cxportation of gold which had gone on in 1885 and 1830, and again turned the balance of traae in our favor. The records of the last fiscal America sola abroad more than it imported from foreign countries §203,000,000, ‘T'hat 204,000,000 was paid 1uto the country by for- eign countries who purchased our mer- coandise. That 208,000,000 came to us, cither in our securities which were returned, or in gola and silver. N bt It K Menns, T'wo huudred and tareo millions of dol [ars were saved Lo our country in one year and that motey is now ut home circuluting among the people. That $203,000,000, if it were all witbin the limits of the state of Ne- braska, would represent four times tne &) per capita thot is called for in the populists’ platform. It represents more than twico the entiro amount of money that would be raquired (o pay off tie entiro farm mortgage debt of the state of Nebraska. It represcuts §70,000,000 more than the entiro wortzage a¢bi upon the town lots added to the mortgage debt upou the farms of Nebraska. ‘T'hat §203,000,000 reprasents aoout §200 for every man, woman and child 10 the state of Nebraska, = Thiuk of such a tiood of money being brought to us from foreign countries who are obliged to buy our materials to keep the hungry in Iurope from starving, and all brought about by tue blessiugs of the MeKinley tarifi law vear show that In Llerce County, Pierce, Neb.,, Oct, |Special Tele- gram to Tue Bee |—Hon, George D, Per- kios of Sioux City and A, E. Barnes of PPonca addressea the largest political gather- ing ever held in this place this afternoon, T'he large opera hall was filled to its utmost capacity with entbusiastic republicans, Mr, Perkins dwelt on the mistakes of the demo- cratic party, the tariff and the currency Baroes spoke 0a the street at tho same timo, the hall being too small to accommodate the assembled voters. He talked at lengtn of the extravagaoces of the late legisiature, showed that the calamity clause in tho wde pendent platform is a libel o the state and closed by referring o each of the nominees of the repuvlicans as o wateuless ticket, Little Specks of Trouble that Make the Bourbon Hearts fore, BOYD'S SCHEME TO RETAIN HIS POWER tate Ticket to Give ~Conferences Willing to Sacritice the N ska to W with Van Wyck and Shrader - Status of the Deal, br v There is any amount of trouble in the democratic camp. Some of the leaders want to withdraw tho electoral ticket, and others are bitterly opposed to the plan, and & vast acal of caucusiug and conference work is being doue in consequence. As has been vunderstood for some time, Governor Boyd, aided and abetted by some of his most trusty lioutenants, has urged tho faithful unterritiea disciples to vote the Woeaver electoral ticket, realizing that tue state could not be carried for Cleveland, and hoping that by following out this plan the state might bo taken out of the repudlican column, The governor's pet scheme has met with the most determined opposition for var- ious reasous. Some of the rebelilous ones have declared that under no consideration would they cust their ballots for the ex-re- vublican-greenbacker-prohibitionist, while others have urged us a reason for their oppo- sition that the party would receive no con cessions or cousideration at the Lands of the peoplo’s party folks for such action, and they did not propose 10 vote for a populist candi- date unless the populists would reciprocato in Kind. It will beremembered, too, that there are democrats o this state, whose name is legion, who do not take lkfudly to everything that Governor Boya muy say, and they are iu- clined to array tismsclves against any scheme that would enable n1m to resume his divtatorshin of federal appointments, It is us plain as the n0so ou @ man's face that if Boyd succeed in throwing the democratic vote to Weaver Cleveland would recognize his services by giving hima place in the cabinet, ‘That would, of course, mean that the Suclid Martins, the Charley Browns, the Tin Mahoneys and John A. McShanes would be cooling their feet in Clevelana’s ante- room, while Bovd wauld bé occupying & big arm chair cheek-vy-jow! with the Stuffed Proouet, Opposed for So oral Keasons, . o overcoms this biten a vigorous attempt 15 being made by the leaders that are willing to bolt Cleveland to secure the withdrawal of the democratic electoral Licket in the be- lief that with that out of the way the demo- crats who could not_otherwise be induced to vote other than thelr own ticket would vote for Weaver, ‘This scheme is also being vigorously combated not onlv by those who are determined Lo cast thelr votes for Cleve- land but by severul of the nominees for state offices and their friends, wno insist that the wove would injure their chances without doing the party a bit of gocd, There have been several conferences that havewaxed warm and woolly, and threats have been made that if tho state central committes dared Lo carry out the projectod move they would be compelled to go farther and pull off the entire state ticket. This put a different aspect on the situation, sud the people's party leaders, who had beon doing all they could in a quiet way to help along the withdrawal laea, were suddenly con- fronted with an entirely new and somewhat startling view of affair They were willing o take their chances on getting enough democratic votes, with the democratic electoral ticket out of the way, Lo carry the state for Weaver, but with the democratic state ticket off the track thev realized that the last chance of electing Van Wyck or any of his associates would have gone elimmer- ing, and they concluded Lbat it was Lime to *look a leedle oud.” It was then that talk of fusion on a mutu- the Weaver deal endeavorad to got some kind of an agreement or proposition from the pon- ulist leaders that would pacify their rebel- ious brothren and allay their opposition to the withdrawal of the clectoral ticket, When Vun Wyek and Surader wero hore Wednos- day evening they were besought by several of the democrats to help them solve the difli- culty, and on Thursday morning a_confer- cnce was held, at which Van Wycl,Shrader, Craddock and’ Strickler of the populists and J.A. Matthews ana F. A. Brogau of the democrats were present. Not Teiling Anything, What bappened there is as yet safely locked up in thair own breasts, but that nothing definite and final was accomplished is manifested by tha vast amount of empha- sis and wild gesticulation that characterizos the democratic conferences thut are being held with pidly recurring frequency and Dr. George L. Milier in- o confidential coafab at tho Paxton, to discuss what has been and what might be, and it is stated that tho populist gubernatoriol candidate is not only willing but anxious to assist the democratic high priostn 1mmolating his fellow candidates of tho populist ticket on the political altar, if he cav thereby brighten the bedimmed prospects for Van Wyck's election. Van Wyek and Sbrader pulled out for Cal- houa and Blair Thursday aftornoon to look aftor meetings at thoso places, but returned I'riday morning, and auother short confer- cnce was held before the brace of populists pulled out for Gretna at 10:1 Tho oftices of the Union Pacific, Missouri Pacific and Chicago & Northwesiern we visited by Van Wyek on Thursday, and from the time spent at each place it secmed that be was not an unwelcomo or unes- pocted caller.
