FROM COUNCIL BLUFES Mary Ellen Lease Holds & Seance with the Looal Populists, EXPOUNDED HER PECULIAR DOCTRINE Woes of the Workers and How They Are to Be Cured—Evil Effects of Eng- land's Existence — Some Figures on Money, Mrs. Mary Eilon Lease held down her due «hare of the bourds at Dohany's opera house last night. It was & meoting held under the auspices of the peovle's party of Council Blufts and a large andience was present to greet the rathier eccentric Kansas woman Hor specch was of the stereotyped populist form with about the regulation seasoning, but the howl war dressed up in an attractive form that heid the interest of the audience throughout Tho early part of the address was devoted 1o the consideration of the money (uestion, and in it she took the silver side of the con- troversy. It was the farmer, she said, who was the great sufferer from all the infamous legislation of the past years, and as 76 per cent of the entire unfon army was made up of farmers she thought the farmers had a right to say something about how the coun- try should be run_after it had been saved from dissolution. Aud she further ceclared that the western farmers could not be starved down or clubbed down, but would assert their rights in a way that could not be wisunderstooa Euemies of the People. Siio roferred to the fact of there being 200,000 unemployed men in the city of Chi- lone as o vesult of bad legislation, she continued, you who think T am going to blame the democratic party for this state of affairs I should like to ask how the democrats can be leld responsivle when they haven't changed a single law that was cnacted by the republicans. And I think you all know me too well ta have any idea that 1 am going to defend the democrats, for if the people have any one enemy today it 1s the demo-republican party. ““The farmers of this coontry should be the most happy and contented people on the face of the earth. In Kansas alonc we raise enough corn and wheat every year 1o pay off the national debt, and. what i§ still more, wi s enough hemp to hangall of the oppo nents of froe silver. But one-third of the farmers have to rent their farms and another third who own_their own farms have them mortgaged. The numbver of farms owned has decreased while the acreage has in- reased fn the last twelveyears. Doesn't this look as if therich are growing richer and the poor poorer, and that the land of the country is being concentrated in the hands of a few individuals! “Thirty years ago such & thing as a stary- iug man begging for work and being unable to find it was unknown in this count while today there are four or five million unemployed people and those at the head of the government are cither unable or unwill- ing to give any assistancs England’s Pernicions Polley. 'he money question is the puramount question vow before the American people, and when we break up the money trust we shall be in shape to break up all the rest is true there are eighteen English svndieates which own 783,000 acres apiece of the United States land, while there fare 25,000,000 homeless Ameri- cans. It is equally true that a few men have guined possession of the raliway enterprises of the country and tear down and build up commerce us they see fit. And yet it is the money question, after all. that is the most important question with which we have to deal. Every financial crisis has been brought about by the same means, the deerease in the volume of the currency. When Rome went down cighteen men owned the whole carth. When Babylon went down 2 per cent of her people owned W ver cent of her wealth. There is no difference hetween famine and plenty when & few individuals n dictate prices and wages.” The speaker then proceeded to administer araast to the doctrine of protection and ac- cused the republican party of protectinz the country into the poor house. ~ She then al- luded to the extra session of congress that was called for the avowed purposo of taking away £6,000,000 of the money in circulation, althongh every one admitted that a great share of the present depression was due to the contraction of the currency. She quoted several republican papers to the effect that Cleveland was carrying out the policy of the republican party. and that the democratic and republican ideas were the same on this \limportunt subject. Further on _she quoted J. 8. Clarkson, the well known Towa republican editor, as saying that the repub- lican party was dead west of the Missouri river and * the left wing of the democratic 1St Some Mineralogical Statistics, America produces three-fourths of al the er of the world, and England the bulk of old.

Through the treachery of our representatives England has gotten a hold upon us that she could neverhave sccured by force of arms. She owns rour raflronds and our vast commercial enter- prises. and we have to pay her §235,000,000 in gold every year. Twenty times she has caused us finuncial bankruptey, and. in fact the only time we ever bad a_breathing spell was when we issued greenbacks and made them full legal tender. If the books of any business wan were in the shape that our country's books are today he would be de- clared insolvent inside of twenty-four hours. “The signs of the times are revolutionary. Discontent is all over the land. The people are investigating and demanding a remedy for all their ills. Uunrest and destitution are sown broadcast.” With regard to lowa politics she said that the republicans had sided with the demo- crats all the way from finapces 10 whisky. The republicans will pray with the elders and drink whisky with the boys. She then ack to her old hobby, the money question, and challenged anyroneto show a time when there had been a shrinkage of the value of a dollar. Elihu Meyers, who expects 1o be representative next year, said ewphatically that it couldu’t be done, snd Mrs. Lease was satisficd. The fact that there was only one gold dollar in the house, and that was kept by its owner as a souvenir, was pointed 1o as a sure proof that the gold dollar which had been used as & standard of values for so0 muny years was merely a phantom, Whacked it to the Press. She could not get through . with nkerous harangue without her customary attack upon Mr. Rosewater, She applied her pet scorpion indiscriminately to editors, but Mr. Rosewater was particu- larly obuoxious to ber. Toward the end of her two hours speech she had discovered that all the parties and the world was coming her way. “Even Mr. Rosewater under convinction.” said she, “for 1 read an editorial in showed that he was just ready to come into the people’e party. But we don't want him,"” she screamed. “We won't even take him upon long probation,’” and she pirouetted across the stuge und back with such vigor that her back hair became loosened and her polonaise snapped viciously. sily the itor her Bad Bills Made Good. 1f you have any bad bills against per- sons not living in lowa who are employed by any railway, telegraph, express or sleeping car company entering Towa,the Nassau Investment Co., Merriam block, Council Bluffe, la., will guarantee their vollection.

ANL THEIR WOES, Tribuiation of Patrivts Who Seek ide the Australian Bailot's Flight. “Saturday night was one of the worst nights 1 ever tried to use for campaign purposes,” remarked one of the canditates on the county ticket yesterday. '‘Onmy way out into the country districts. where | expected to snake & few votes owt of the enemy’s camp, | was suddenly aroused from my reveries by finaing myself in somebody's cornfield. It was;snowing] and blowing, andso dark that 1 could not see ten feet from wme. 1 could see the corustalks iall around me, however, and so decided I might as well be lookiug around for the road which iy horse had deserted. After nearly half an hour's rummaging I dug the road up from the bottom of the darkness.’" This candidate's experience is hardly a marker to that of J. J. Frainey, R N. Whitt- lesey and C. M, Maynard, The worst thine about it was that they were not in it for office, but were merely out for the good of the party. On their way to Washington township, where they were to put a political triology on the boards of the Annis school house. they suddenly ran with a cold plunk into the side of the house.” Their horse had left the road and ittook them some little tame to find it again. Even when they did find it the horse appeared to have been smelliug of some politician’s breath, for it was not long until he left the rond again and went to wandering about in potato patches and other forbidden territory. When at last they emerged from the dark- ness they were so disgusted that they de- cided to wait for some man to come along who was familiar with the country. They accordingly perched themselves on a fence at the roadside. After quite a good deal of vatient waiting had been enjoyed a farmer came aloag and the three political stumpers asled him to lead them to the Aunis school house. Fortunately he was a good repub- lican, and feeling assured that any talking these stalwart democrats would do would bring in votes for Scanlan, Pusey, Waite and the rest of them, he told_them to get on board. Whittlesey and Maynard rode in their buggy while Frainey sat in the back end of the farmer's wugon and by means of a long hitching strap succeeded in keening the horse und buggy in the road during the rest of the journey. R. N. Whittlesey and Justice Vien came near making a bet on election yesterday afternoon, Whittlesey betting that the dem- ocrats would carry Boomer township by a majority of thirty. He secured a continu- ance of five minutes from the justice in order that he might go out and get a 10 bill. The five minutes lengthenod oui into several hours, and he has not been seen since. Inas- much as Whittlesey was one of the demo- crats who went to Boomer township to tell the voters how to vote, and inasmuch as the democrats usually have a majority of fifty in that township, his failure to cover the re- publican coin is looked upon us a good indi- cation of what he thiuks of his own success as 4 professor of politic to Be shown the Klein tract, 24 miles east of postoffice, out Madison street.

Speeches in Which Joffersontan Doctrines Were Earnestly Expounded. The local democracy blew consiaerable in- terest into the campaign by holding a fairly well uttended meeting down in the Second of the candi- dates for the county offices were exhibited. Although not a candidate for any oftice, W. S. Shocmaker responded to a call and expounded Jeffersonian doctrines to the en- tire satisfaction of all. The speaker cheered | the hearts of the wavering by telling them that he had just come in from the by-ways and hedges and that victory was looming up all along the line. If democrats would be true to their colors, he opined, and would not listen to the siren voice of the enemy, every man on the ticket would be caught on the top of the wave ana would be swept into office. This victory, he said, would re- sult in waking the city’ democratic and next year there would be more democrats than sand fleas in the state of Nebraska, Then Mr. Shoemaker touched up the pres- ent city administration by declaring that 1t was an expensive luxury and raised the rate of assessment from 35 to 44 per cent, not- withstanding the fact that it had boasted of being & reform administration, Isaac Hascall's candidacy, Mr. Shoemaker declared, was a joke. He 'was going about the city posing as the candidate of the labor- ing man, when the facts were that he had not performed a day’s work during the past thireo years. Votes for Hascall, the speaker insisted, meant an increased majority for Bemis, and he hoped that no democrat would vote that way. Hascall, Mr. Shoe- maker said, had been a republican, a demo- crat, o greenbacker, & populist and about everything but a prohibitionist and he was liable to be in that camp next year. “I was going to speak about Bennett,” saia Mr. Shoemaker, “'but if you have read Tue Bee you know all about him, and it is useless for me tosay anything, only 10 re- mark that what has been published is true.” Turning his attention 1o John Drexel, the democratic candidate for sheriff, the speaker paid his abilivy and honesty a high tribute, and then said that all of the reports regard: ing Drexel being & member of the American Protective association were untrue. Several commitiees had investigated the matter and had been satisted ihat Drexel had never beep s member of the order, nor were his sympathies in that direction. Short speeches were made by Frauk J.

CLOSING MUMENTS SCENES OF MOURNING Io Contrast to Paris’ Inordinate Gayety Chieago Corbs Her Appetite for Fes- tive Food In Presence of the Angel of Death, Crrcaco, Oct. 30.~The ofcial lite of the World's fair has ended. This evening was to have been one of gayety and dazzling bril- liancy, but the death of Mayor Harrison changed all that The meeting at ing the afternoon ence was detained 10 hear an earnest prayer by Rev. Mr. Barrows, a few explanatory re- marks rogarding the change of program by President Palmer, the reading of an appro- priate speech by President Higinbotham, and the resolutions of sympathy concerning Carter Harrison's untimely end. These resolutions were read by H. N. Hig- inbotham, president of the World's Colum- an exposition, who began in a clear, firm voice, which soon grew husky and tremu- lous. The fair was declared closed by Thon.as W. Palmer, president of the national com- mission, in the following words: *It was intended to close this falr simultaneously with the sound of this gavel, the firing of artillery and the lowering of the flag. All that has been changed by the sad circumstances which bring us together now. I aunounce that when the sun sets the closing will be marked only by a salute and the hauling down of the flag. When that takes place I declare, in obedience to the act of congress, the exposition is ofticially closed.” Before giving the benediction Rev. Mr Barrows announced that he had been re- quested by the committee to read the speech President Higinbotham had written for this day prior to Mr. Harrison's demise. The speech was in part as follows: Like the Death of a Dear Friend. “We are turning our backs upon the fair- est dreams of civilization and are about to consign it to the dust. Itis like the death of a dear friend. It is like bidding farewell to one’s youtn. 1t is like all those times in the life of & man when the thoughts of the present are choked with the emotions of the past. Atsuch times the call of duty alone can_uplift the heart and arouse it to meet the thiugs thai are yet tocome. That call 15 upon each one of us now. It bids us learn tho lessons of the past season and store them up to the everlasting benelit of ourselves and our children. Let us g0 forth to meet the duties of the wture with- out fear, sustained by the faith that what we have wrought will endure nnd forever stand as a beacon light, guiding others to loftier heights and to greater achicve- ments.

Cuicago, Oct. 80.—With the closing of Jackson park gates and the official death of the fair comes up the seriouws problem of how 10 dispose of the buildings. Many answers have been given, but as yet nothing at all definite bus been done. Upon oune point ali are agreed. If possible some of the bmldings may be preserved intact. Ferd W. Peck, vice president of the World's Columbian exposition, speaking of the exposition and tue work of demolition said: “Itsurely will be a wrong to the American public if these magnifivent buildings are at once turned over to the destroyers. We nave here a lessonin architecture which should be preserved. It may be impossible to continue the fair another year, but cer- tainly we may retain the bulldings. Preserve the Court of Honor, “Iam in favor of prescrving the Court of Honor for an indefinite length of time. This can be done without, great expense. 1 am told by Director of Works Burnham that for #20,000 we can paint the Peristyle and the buildings facing the Court of Honor, If this is done at once the staff will remain strong for several years. The millions who have enjoyed Lhe beauties of the place this sum- wer will unsnimouslyapprove the idea of preserving it. “I am told that the,South park commis- sloners will not agree . the proposition to leave the buildings. Even if this be true their objections can pnobably be overcome. In this century the will of the people is all- rowerlul. and if the pablic will only arouse tself and express its;convictions ihe purk commissioners will simply be compellea to consent to leaving theLourt of Honor undis- turbed. “Now don't misunderstand me about thi matter. I do not say all the buildings should renain. 1say some of the buildings should be removed as soou as possible. But those facing the Court of Honor should, and 1 believe will, remain for many years to come. ““Within the great Manufactures building an anuual exposition might be held, opevin September 1 and closing October 81. Chi- cago can provide a display that will attract hundreds of thousands to the city each sum- mer, That beiug done, a mutual bapefit would be secured. There are millions who have not visited the fair who would consider it & favor 1o be allowed to visit Jackson park and enter even one of the great structures which we are now talking of destroying. I 1 shall use all of my infiuence to keep the Court of Honor for the public.” Soheme for Their Ferpetuation.
