The case of the Lemp Brewing company against Goldstein and Brown was on trial in the district court yesterday.

He swore that the Wizard Telephone company for which he worked, owed him $65. ment emphatically, and requested the news- papers to say that the company paid its men every Saturday night, and had paid Condon his $6 a week at the close of the last week.

Be a Quiet One in e General F. M. Drake of Centerville spent a few hours in the city yesterday and took a room at the Grand, where he met a large number of prominent republicans. He came here chiefly for the purpose, he sald, of call- ing upon Hon. George F. Wright, John N. Baldwin and other gentlemen here whom he has “known for years. Mr. Wright and he were boys together in the eastern part of the state. Incidentally, of course, General Drake desired to ascertain how the western Towa republicans felt concerning his candi- dacy for governor.

You can put me down as a re- publican ail the way along. 1 cast my first vote for General Fremont, and have voted for every other cardidate for president since, during the four years I was in the army. You can also put this down as a sort of crystalization of my political belief after watching and studying all my life; What- ever is ‘good, Inside the government and out of it, must be found inside of the repub- lican party. The best advice I can give my fellow republicans fs to stay inside the re- publican party while it settles the grave questions of the day. There are no other means of settling them. In the campalgn in Towa this fall both state and national issues will be discussed. I have no platform of my own. The platform that the republicans adopt will be my platform, and 1 will stand upon It proud and conscious that I am stand- ing for the best interests of the whole people of the state. 5 “The monetary question wiil be an impor- tant factor, and the position that the makers of the stafe platform will take upon it will be my position. I think Senator Allicon's Marshalltown speech furnishes the keynote of the Towa and the national campaign upon this subject, Mr. Allison favors a platform pro- viding for an international agreement on the coinage of silver. There s no issue between the factions of the republican party today on this subject because there are no factions. The democrats are torn up, and are still a tearing each other to pleces over it. The administration democratic party Is composed of and controlled by monometallists. ~They care nothing for silver, but are willing to join the bulk of the party and acquiese in anything. Democratic principle has always been anything for success; republican prin- ciple something for the good of the people. I am willing to trust the solution of the grave monetary problems to the republican party. What else can you do? We are just like the old darkey who was asked which he pre- ferred to ride upon, a railway train going at lightning speed over the land or a big ship on the ocean. ‘Well, you see, boss, when yo' is on de train an’ runs inter de ditch an’ ®its all smashed up you is right dar, but it yo' is on de water an’ de ship goes down, whar 1s you?

A select quartet sang “Stealing Away,” after which prayer was offered by Rev. J. J. Parker of Norfolk. Mr. Rigdon sang “'Softly end Tenderly,” and a number of selections were rendered by the chorus choir, under the very able direction of Mr. Clarence Jud- son, who Is himself a very sweet singer. The text was Exodus xil, 14: ‘“When I see the blood I will pass over you. “Running through the entire scripture,” said Mr. Pierson, “‘we find that without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. The first blood was shel In Eden on account of sin, sacrifices were made for ages to atone for sin, and so we may follow this scarlet thread entirely through the scrip- tures. When the first born was to be sacri- ficed, death never enterel where blood from a sacrifice was sprinkled upon the door post. But with the death of Christ this shed- ding of blood for sin ceased. When Christ on the cross sald, ‘It is finished,’ it meant that man's redemption was accomplished. I read that Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Let His blood be applied to your heart, and eternal death will never come to your soul.” There will be no meeting of any kind today.

The verdiet was that t nawa management had no responsibility for the accident and that Duffes had not re- ceived any personal damages that Colonel Reed should pay for, It Is reported that Colonel Reed offered him $100 before a suit was started! but It was refused.

MAKES BOME RECOMUENDATIONS Good Government Club Suggests Reforms to Improve Munielpil Finances. The Good Government club held a meet- ing last evening In the south wing of the county court house for the purpose of re- ceiving the report of its special committee appointed several days ago to formulate a reply others and to refute the charge that the club was engaged only in a destructive as- sault upon the city's finances and credit without being able to suggest any methods to relieve the conditions it was assailing. The committee consisted of Hon. L. W. Ross, Judge W. C. James and Attorney C. M Harl. The report was read immediately after the proceedings of the previous meet- ing were approved. It begins with a vigor- ous reply to the criticisms made upon it, and calls attention to the faot that the organiza- tion 1s composgd of citizens and taxpayers who should not be charged with attacking the city's credit or suggesting repudiation of its obligations. Such a course was not the purpose of the club, but its objects were to aid in bringing about wige business methods whereby the city’s credit could be main- tained ‘and the payment of its outstanding obligations made possible at the earliest pos sible date. Attention is called to the fact that similar financial situation in many other cities has called forth similar organizatio; having for their object the batterment of munt cipal government. The avowed purpose of the present city administration to effect a rad: | cal reduction of public expenditures rather {than an increased assessment is warmly commended. A sweeping denial is made of the charge that the figures furnished by the club have been erroneous or intentionally misleading, but asserts that all the figures were taken from official sources. Then follows seven recommendat'ons, which are given as the result of the investigations | and deliberations of the ciub. The first deals | with the water works problem and calls for a legal inquiry into the validity of the com piny's contract with the city, and recom- mends that the city at once abrogate the | contract and bring the proper action that fts | validity may be determined by the courts, to | that will relieve the city of the burdensome water rents. The exemption of the cimpany from municipal taxation s pronounced 1i1:gal and unjustifiable. The second calls for a halt in the systen of putting general fund warrants into ju ments, for the payment of which a h | Judgment tax must be levied, a tax greater than fs contemplated by law. The third provides that a part of the sink- ing fund not available for the payment of obligation for which it is pledged for a num ber of years, shall ba invested in the pur chase of interest bearing obligations of the clty. The fourth calls for a.refunding of th outstanding general fund warrants at a lower rate of interest in long time bonds. The fifth recommends the consolidation of the chief of police and marshal’s offices The sixth demands rigid economy and th careful investigation by the city council of all the departments of the city government and the checking of useless expenditures. The seventh objects to the abuses that have grown up under the power given tl council to order improvements at the expense of abuting property, and suggests a chan in the general law relating to street provements, The report was adopted without dissent Speeches were made by Ross, McCabe, Harl and others.

THE OMANA DAILY BEE: SATURDA to the criticlsms of the mayor and | the end that a new contract may be made | LABORS DRAWINE TO CLOSE 119d Important Work of & Great Conventim Ahbout at gy, End, —— CATHOLIC KNISHTS, CONSIDER REPORTS Archbishop Gross Warmly Urges the Ne- ceasity for Action that Wil lncrense the Membership of the Fraternal Order— Western Delegntes (aacus. At the of yesterday supreme council America the moring's session of of Catholle Knights ” convention again | resolved itselt Into a committee of the whole to complete tion of the report of the committee on laws. The most important feature in this respect was the debate on the question of creating the supplemental office of supreme organizer, a pesition suggested to increase the member- ship of the order. During the discussion Archbishop Gross of Oregon took the floor for the first time during the convention proceedings and warmly urged the necessity of doing something to infuse new life in the order and Insure an increase in member- ship. He berated old fogyism and expressed the hope that action would be taken to avert impending peril of a decay in membership. The venerable archbishop’s remarks were ap- plauded and the amendment to create the office was finally refefred back to the com- mittee on laws for reconsileration. That committee had previously made an adverse report. At noon the committee of the whole re- ported progress and will resume its sitting this afterncon, when the exhaustive work of considering the law committec’s report will b: completed, officers will be elected and the labors of the end. The western delegates held a caucus at the Dallone tenth council will be at an and of decided to promote the Hon. E. D. McGuinness of o for the supreme presidency, but Mr. McGuinness this morning positively declined to allow his name to go before the convention. He o as a reason that business duties - would not permit acceptance of the position. This prac- { tically makes Hon. Jemes David Col'man of Loufslana a strong possibility for the execu- tive chair of the organization. Many of the delegates have urged his name, and it is probable that he will be the next suprem president, {f he wants the place. The Mis souri defegation, however, is energetically booming Vice President Lous. 1f Mr. Coleman s elec Hannaeur of St °d supreme president Washington, D.

CONCERNING THE SINKING FUND. Yesterday afternoon was largely devoted to 1 discussion over the proposed revision of ho constitution to reducs the rate of as- essment incurre’ by the increase in the sinking fund. The present fund is judiciously invested C creditsd to the sinking funl. fee, $1, is also credited, to this fund. Su- preme = Trustee McGuinness presented a m ty report of the! committee on laws, uggeating revision th d'ert further payment n this respect in the fufire. The new jlan proposed was to continiie the sinking fur it its present standing, biit to ald the laterest t tho securitics, whichiamounts to $15,000 per year, end to divert ipitlation fees to the general fund. Thiscproposed constitutional amendment was reported ‘aiversaly upon by tho majority of the''tommit on laws, but Mr. McGuinness, reljresenting the minority, filed a report favorabla to the idea. In committes of thé whole, with Mr. Duffy of Memjhis, Tenn.,' in the’ chair, the sub- ject”came up for @n animiated discussion, which lasted from 2:30 to 5:30 o'clock. It was one of the warmest contests of the con- vention, during which Mr. Stuewe of Mon- tana took ‘occaston -to- pay his respects to congress, and sald that the repeal of the sil- ver bill had closed western sifver mines, ani \s many western, Catholic knights were poor In consequence thereof they wanted cheaper assessments. Mr. Harrington ~of - Nebraska sustained the sentiment of the western dele- gates and somewhat dramatically appealed to the c2nvention to do something that would protect the shattered earnings of the labor- ing men of the west who belonged to the order. After a prolonged debate the minor- ity report was adopted by a vote of 27 to 21, and passed the committee of the whole: It requires a two-thirds vote of the council to make a const{futional amendment. Scveral favorable reports from archbishops thronghout the country were read, in which the right reverend gentlemen encouraged the organization. At 6 o the convention took a reccss until 8 o'clock, after rising as a committee of the whole and completing most of its exhaustive consideration of the committee on laws. At 8 o'clock last night Supreme President Shine called the council to order and delegates listened to the reports of W. C. Smith of Kentucky, chairman of the com- The initiat mittee on appeals and grievances; H. B. Feldhaus of Kentucky, chalrman of the committee on finance; F. J. Maher of Miss'ssippl, chairman of the committee on mileage and per diem; J. J. Duffy of Tennes- see, chairman of the committee on new bus- iness; J. C. Purcell of Pennsylvania, chair- man of the committee on rates, and Major General Kodac Kadeski of Marshall, Il chalrman of the committee on uniform rank. The reports were recefved and adopted. GIVE THE GIRLS A CHANCE. General Kadeski gained the plaudits of the feminine spectators when he introduced a resolution permitting the wives, daughters and relatives of Catholic Knights to form auxillaries in the branches of the order, pro- vided sald auxillaries were purely soclal and the lad'es deprived of active participation in the deliberations of the organization. With appreclation of the persistent fight for wo- man’s right made by the handsome delegate from Illinois the convention, finally passed the resolution. A number of communications were referred to various subcommittees to act upon during the ensuing year and report at the next su- preme council. An invitation to visit The Bee building today, extended by Delegate Harrington of Nebraska in bebalf of Mr. E. Rosewater, was aczepted with thanks. The election of officers and selection of next place of meeting, together with the dis- position of all unfin'shed business, -will be the closing feature of the council this morning, after which the delegates will leave for their respective homes with pleasant memories of Omaha and the tenth annual convention. A communication from Father Carroll, stat- Ing that there was no expense to the knights necessitated by the speclal services at the cathedral Wednesday, wls read, and a vote of thanks promptly t4nd for the courtesy. At 11:30 the convention took a recess until 9:30 this morning: * /bt Just prior to sdjoyrnment last evening Y, considera- | the | 1895, - Delegate Harrington eulogized B. Rosewster, editor of The Bee, for his victorious definse of the rights of creeds in Nebraska. The speaker's remarks were greeted with enthu- siastic applause, and the delegates unani mously voted to call upon Mr. Rosewater in a body today at 12 o'clock, during the noon recess.

It ind the is possil free col e there is something e scheme not really vered. It is possible it Is aimed against h great mass of the industrious and In- telligent, and it is really intended to serve the interesis of the very rich and of great corporations. The bonded debt of the rail ways in the United States is about $6,000,- 000,000. If free coinage of silver were intro- | duced it would enable the rallways to pay off their debts with what is now equivalent to_about $3,000,000,000. They_ would thus be | velieved of the necessity of paying to small investors who have taken their bonds one- half of what these corporations now owe them. The Sharman act of July 4, 1890, unless re- poaled, would have brought us to the single standard. As it was, the mere suspicion of silver monometallism and the change of prices and of our standard of measure struck a blow at the solidity of our international trade, brought on the panic, made prices un- certain and caused doubt as to future plans in every factory and shop in the land, Those who have silver mines and who can by their wealth control political parties and legisla- tures, who make the gery seat of our na- tional government- their prided offices and actually turn the national senate into a bu- reau for bulling the price of their product, 1o those men we say baware. Those of us who belong to the rank of plain citizens, who are thinking only of the country as a whole, who believe in the hon- esty, intelligence and integrity of the Amer fcan’ people, we hold that when a question of right or wrong is presented in a campaign of education the people will decide for the right. We cannot believe that a special in- terest led by millionaires can go on un- checked in their plan of sacrificing the tax- payers in order to heap up riches, especially when this is done on the most false of oconomical grour grounds which have een proved wrong by the experience of every country of modern times. Tha proposal for free colnage was born in the private offices of the silver kings, nursed at the hands of speculators, clothed in eco- nomic error, fed on boodle, and as sure as there is honesty and truth in the American heart it will die young and be buried in the same Ignominious grave wherein lies the now forgotten infant once famous as the rag baby, Contrary (o expectation, the time after the main address’ was not occupled fully by Mr. Harvey. Instead, it was agreed that he be accorded fifteen minutes, then Mr. Laughlin reply in fifteen minutes, and Mr. Harvey to conclude in five minutes. As a result, the finish was largely taken up with good na- tured chafing of each other rather than se- rious arguments.

HOIES COMES OUT FOR FREE SILVER Does Not Belleve In Waiting on the Action of Other Natios ALTON, Ia, May 17.—In a letter to the Alton Democrat, ex-Governor Boles of Towa comes out for the free colnage of silver at a 16 to 1, without walting on any Interna- tional action, Mr. Doles says: “It Is idle to oxpect the masses of the American people to walt for the co-operation of foreign na- tions before they settle this question. They have no faith In such a remedy. They have taken the matter into their own hands and they will settle it one way or another, so far as this country is concerned, In the next national election that fs held. If unre stricted coinage follows and the result is all that gold monometallists predict, the conse- quences, If evil, should not be charged to friends of free coinage of both metals. They did not seek the issue; all that they asked was honest bimetallism with reasonable safeguards for maintaining the parity of the two. This has been denled them upon e grounds, as 1 believe no possible legislation could effect that end. I frankly admit that it the question is to be narrowed to the single question of gold monometallism on one side or unconditional free colnage of both metals at the old ratio on the other, 1 am in favor of free colnage, because I believe it will at least be the beginning of a broad- ened financial system that will, if necessary, be so perfected in the near future as to give us an absolutely safe and sound currency, the foundation of which will be legal at least, and I believe practically the equal use of both gold and silver as the money of re- demption,' ONE ENJOYS Both the method and results when Syrup of Figsis taken; it is pleasant and refreshing to the taste, and acts gently yet promptly on the Kidneys, Liver and Bowels, cleanses the BYS- m effectually, dispeis colds, head- whes and fevers and cures habitual sastipation.

He Is & writer of no mean ability, has been employed as editor and editorial writer on several papers, is recognized throughout Maine as a forcible and convincing speaker and is unl- versally liked. At present he represents a big Boston house on the road, where hia warm genfalty makes him welcome to every hotel and raflway train In the smoking compariment of a parlor car last week he was pralsing Paine's celery compound to a fellow passenger. The person to whom he aldressed his conversation had been laid up with the grip. The malady left him in a bad way, a sort of depression of spirits and disinclination for business, 1 felt the same way,” sald Mr, Murphy, ‘After wrestling aweck with the grip it left me depressed and weak. One flight of stairs was enough to make me puff and wheeze like a feaky bellows. A mile walk would almost floor me. Headoches began the moment 1 €0 out of bed, and 1 felt about as mean ay one could for the whole day. Hearing sa much about Paine's celery compound I made up my mind to try it, and I'll you how it worked. It was like close applications of soothing lotlons to a scorched finger. After a few doses 1 found that on retiring 1 soon dropped into a sound, refreshing sieep. In less than & week I was mysell again. My eyes, which are none t0o etrong at thelr best, but ‘which burned and ached until I began taking Pa ne's celery e mpoind, & 8 :med thelt normal condition and really scemed stronge than before the grip marked me for a vietim, I can walk fivo miles now and feel none the worse for it. “My wife and boy compound thi y are taking Paine's celery Pring.
