Frank Tracy, a bootlegger convicted at this term of the United States court, was sentenced to the penitentiary by Judge Wool- son yesterday, for a term of fourteen months, and was also fined $600. James Walters, for the same offense, was fined §300 and given a 100-day sentence, but on the payment of $76 the rest of the sentence will be suspended during good behavior. Matt Reuland, George E. Williams and Sam Smith were discharged by the juries before whom their cases were tried. Phillip Lamby was found guilty of violating the revenue law. Edward B, Williamson of Indianola was up for sentence for trying to work the green goods racket on no less astute an individual than Deputy United States Marshal Richards. He had partially worked up a vietim when Richards learned of it through thegintended victim's “‘squeali Richards told the vie- tim 1o go on and e victimized, and furnished him $500 with which to buy $5,000 worth of money that could not be told from green- backs.” The victim, whose name is not told by the icer, gave Williamson the money, which Williamson sealed up in an envelope and put betwe ves of a book. Then adroitly turning the book over, he took out another envelope, an exact duplicate of the first, and gave it to his victim saying, “I am only acting as ageut for another man. You keep this until [ get the greenbacks, and then Il take it back.” He left the cowshed which was his place of business, but as he went out he was overhauled by Richards, who had been In walting during the inter- view, and put him under arrest. Williamson {s considered a bad mun at his home, and taking the fact of his gencral reputation into consideration, Judge Woolson pronounced sentence upon him, giving him a $150 fine and sixteen months in the peniten- tiary. This was only two months and $50 un- der the maximum penalty. The last of the jury cases was finished yes- terday and the judge released the jurors to 80 to their homes. The court will keep in session probably for the rest of this week to finish up the civil business. COPPS CH R, The King of Al Temperance Beverage:, n PYerfect Substitute for Lager Beer.

Considering the fecundity of the Siberian mountains and rivers in respect to colored precious stones, it would seem as if nature had, in a cynical moment, wreaked vengeance on this portion of the earth by making it hideous, yet rich beyond compare.

F. Waite of the pension bureau, in obedi- ence to the order of Judge Shiras, has filed in the federal court the documents captured In the famous tin box in Pension Agent George* M. Van Leuven's private office at Lime Springs, The documents are mostly in the form of correspondence incriminating upon its face Van Leuven and cer- taln boards of medical examiners with whom he had relations. Nearly all of the numerous indietments found against the pension attorney are based on these let- ters. In all about 700 papers are filed. Some of these letters are to pension claim- ants, whom Van Leuven advised to “grease” tho members of the boards in order to have their examinations go through smoothly. Others are letters between the agents and the surgeons, in which terms are agreed for raising ratings and fixing up the papers in the cases, It appears Van Leuven gave claimants to understand this payment of money to medical examiners was the usual thing, established by long practice, and It does not appear there was, as a rule, a corrupt intent on the part of the claimant. Some of the documents show that afidavits as to physical disability were bought from physicians at an average rate of about 60 cents a line, One letter makes an offer to a physician at Lincoln, Neb., to pay $5 for an affidavit covering disease of the stomach, deafness, rheumatism and heart disease, The doctor sent the afdavit, but demanded $10 for it. This physician, whose name is not revealed, has since testified that he has made a large number of afidavits and that his price ranged from $5 to $10. Affidavits were made to cover nearly all the diseases known and in order to get the applicants be- fore examining boards, with whom he was friendly, printed forms were used for afi- davits and the claimants were asked to copy these in their own hands and sign them Many did not realize what they were doing The filing of the papers is a surprise to the defense, which did not want them made public, its idea being simply to get access to them, (ATE GRANGE, 10WA Twenty-£ifth Sessl'n of the Or- ganizat'on at Des Moines.

Sound Principles Enunciated by the Party 1o Nebraskn, The republicans of Nebraska in conven- tion represented deplore the disastrous re- sults of the *‘change” In the policies cf the national government, decreed by the pecple at a time when the mental balance of the country was temporarily dlsturbed by the exhilaration of a long course of peace, § “0g- ress and material prosperity, and the ¢iumor of demagogues and political quacks, and confidently” appeal to the people ot the state for a return to the conditions that ex- isted prior to the elections of 892, Dismayed by the financial devilsion that paralyzed the business centers of {he coun- try, when the Its of the national and state “elections made it certan that the poliey of protection of home mdusries and he guarantee of public credit anl » sound currency were about 10 be overtncown by a democratic president anl a congress ¢eino- cratic in both branches, the leav1s of the party, wholly In power for the fiest thne in thirfy years, have had neither the coursge to embody the principles set farth in their national convention at Chitago in lewisin- tion, or the wisdom to aoandon their 1k1cat- ened raid on the industries of thd courtry But they have kept the busin:ss htercst of the people W suspense and uncergiinly dur- ing twelve months of unproitable debate over the work of framing 4 1¢\enue bill founded on no definite or recogmgable eco- nomical system, corrupt on Its face, djs- criminating against northern industries for the benefit of the eouth, openly denounced by a lllv’l]wllll‘ of those whose votes carried It to its passige, and not only fraught w'th disaster to the people, but confessedly stamped with * perfidy and party i honor,” ag an donment of the cause of a “tariff for revenue only and the prin- ciples and pledges upon which they were placed in power. “How can they face the people after indulging in such outrageous diserimination and violation of principles as are found in almost every paragraph of the Sugar trust rift bill? In view of th ctical results of a year and a half of democratic rule, we utfirm with renewed faith and fervor the platform of the national republican convention at Minneapolis. We demand the restoration of the Americin policy of protection =nd com- mercial reciprocity ‘with our sister republics of Mexico, Central and South America and the governments of the West India ixlands The republican party of Nebraska has ways been the consts t friend und ag- gressive champlon of honest money and it now takes no step backward. While we favor bimetallism and demand the use of both gold and silver standard money, we in- sist that the parity of the valu the two metals be maintained, so that every dollar, paper or coin, Issued by the governmment shall be as good as any other. ON RAILWAY REGULATION, We adhere to the doctrine that all rall- way lines are subject to regulation and control by the state, and we demand the regulaticn of railway and transportation lines to such extent and in such manner as will insure fair and reasonable rates to the producers and consumers of the country, To that end we insist that I 8 shall be enforced forbidding the fictitious capitali- zation of such corporations and that the constitution of the state shall be rigidly en- forced wherein it {s provided: "l . railroad corporation shall iskue any stock or bonds except for money, labor or property actu- ally received and applled to the purpose for which such corporation was created, and all stock dividends and other fictitic increase of the capital stock or indebte ness of any such corporation shall be vold.” We are in favor of the enforcement of all laws, whether they affect the individual or the corporation, and we therefore demand the enforcement of the maximum rate bill passed by the last legislature until the Bame 18 declared vold by the courts or e vepealed, We are in favor of the enactment of lan by congress that will provide for the supe. vision, regulation and control of corpof tions engag in interstate commerce, with a view to preventing the fictitious capltall- gation and excessive bonding of such cor- porations We denounce all combinations of capital, organized in trusts or otherwise, to controi arbitrarily the conditions of trade, and ar- raign as criminal legislation the ‘manifest concessions of the tariff hill now in the hands of the president .0 the Sugar and Whisky trusts We recognize the rights of organize, using all honorable m the purpose of dignif.ing and placing them of an_equai footing with capltal, to the end that they may both fully understand that they are necessary to the prosperity of the country. Arbitration should (ake the place of strikes and lock- outs for settling labor disputes. The extirpation of anarchy is essential to vation of the nation, and we therefore favor the pending bLill in congress for the exclusion of anarchists, We recommend that the ensuing legisla- ture submit an amendment to the constitu- tion, to e voted on by the people at the nex{ general election, providing for the in- vestment of the permanent school fund in state, county and school district bonds. We' believe that the fndustries of our &tate should be diversified, to relieve the mass of the people from dependence upon one elass of agricultural products subject to crop faflures, and it baing demonstrated that the sofl of this etate Is adapted to the produc- tioh of eugar beets, even in dry seasons, a source of incalculable wealth, we favor leg- Islation that shall bring to ‘our people I(s full realization Ever mindfyl of the services and sacrifices of the men who saved the life of the nation, we protest against the illiberal and unjust policy of the Pension department under the present administration, and pledge anew to the veteran soldiers of the republic a recog- hition of thelr just claims upon a grateful people aborers to sures for their eondition - Chicago Day Celebration. CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—Chicago day, the anni- versary of the great fire of 1871, was cele- brated today. The celebration was begun by the ringing of the Columbian liberty bell, which was carried about the city and rung at the statues of Lincoln and Grant in Lin- coln park, on the site of old Fort Dearborn, at the Columbus monument on the lake front, at the city hall and at the Board of Trade. This afternoon the First regiment Illinols National guards took possession of its new armory and began a three-days military fete with a parade through the business portion of the city. The Marquette club, the Union Leage club and the Sons of New York will give ban- quets tonight. e Humllity of Greatness, Indianapolis Journal: “What did the doc- tor say was the matter with you?" “He said he didn't know. “Well, what doctor are you going to next?" “None.

ICH PEOPLE, Deaths by starvation are probably common among the rich than poor. The amaciation that comes from chronic indigestion simply proclaims an ill nourished body, & starving without from hun- ger. Every physician In New York, from whatever soclal circle his patients are drawn, treats many such cases of starvation, usually, however, & cure is very rarely obtained, as dyspepsia 1s an obstinate disease when es- tablished. Very recently, however, a Brook- lyn physiclan has been making remarkable cures by the wuse of a combina- tion of pure aseptic pepsin, with nitrate of bismuth and several harmless stomach remedies. The preparation is prepared in the form of lozenges or tab- lets, pleasant to take and when used after meals seem to digest the food perfectly, giy- ing the stomach time to rest and recover its natural strength. These tablets are sold by druggists, generally under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and while the remedy is very cheap, costing only 50 cts per package, yet no remedy 8o far tried has made 80 many cures of dyspepsia. One thing is certain, it 1s absolutely safe and cannot harm the most dellcate stomach. A Buffalo physi- clan recently stated that in all cases of indi- gestion, sour slomach, gas and distress after eating, he Invariably recommends Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and always with the best results. From all accounts it would appear that the remedy is an excellent one and worthy of its good name.
