Chttuncoy Wiltso of Fullerton , Nanco
county , wus in the city last nicht. Speaking
of Senator Molklcjohn as 11 candidate for
supreme Judge , ho bald :
"Mr. Meiklojohn will not accept the nom
ination for supreme judge. Ho doesn't want
it. Nolthnr doas ho want the nomination for
governor. Ho doesn't waut the nomination
for any ofllco except that of congressman. 1
had n talk with him the other day and ho
told mo that If ho couldn't got the nomina
tion to coi.gross ho wouldn't accept any.
Meiklojohn is financially a poor man. Ho
wants to go to congress. I don't thinlc there
is money in any oillco unless you know how
to steal. And Moiklojohn is not a man of
that Ulnd. "
"How was his name mentioned first in con
nexion with this ollicol"
"When the central committee mot In Liu-
coin several weeks ago , they east about to
sco whom it was possible to elect to the supreme
premo bench. They cnmo to the conclusion
that It would bo u man who could poll a num
ber of democratic votes nuU they thought
that Melklojohn could do that because of his
ruling at the oponlnir of the last lugislnturo.
lint It's all folly to talk of electing n supreme
Judge by the republicans or democrats this
tall. The independents are going
to elect whomsoever they put up.
They nro as a rock now. Last fall they were
not so. Thuy were considerably divided , In
the county conventions there may bo some
discord. There are u number of candidates
where only ono may ho elected. In such case
there may bo some elements introduced
which may cause them to break to u certain
dogreo. "
"How did Melklojohn's name become men
tioned with the gubernatorial position i"
"I don't know. The people out our
way never considered him in connection
with that otllco. Why , the alliance
people Just halo Melklelohn nnd would bo
just glad of an opportunity to show how they
appreciated his services to them at the last
legislature.
"The crops in Nance county nro In excel
lent condition. I don't know when wo had u
hotter prospect. The corn is very line , In
deed.

J OMAHA'S ' NATIONAL BANKS ,
Oompiloi Statement of the Condition of
Their A flairs.
PREVIOUS STATEMENTS COMPARED.
Omnha'H Financial ItiHtltntlniiH Make
n Very Satisfactory Showing
Almost Nineteen Million * * or
Dollars on Deposit.
The national hanks have published n state
ment of the condition of business on July 0 ,
pursuant to the call Issued By the comptroller
of United States currency. The compilation
of the statement nrcsoiitcd below will give n
very good Idea of the actual condition of the
Omaha banking Institutions.
As the amount of money held on deposit by
the banks Is n pretty good Indication of the
condition of business It is only natural to
cull attention to this Item first. A glance nt
the table below will show the total deposits
of the national banks to bo SirvUU.lhM.hO , or a
gain since February SO , the date of the
previous statement , of over $ .YJOWX ) . The
deposits , however , still full short of the
amount held by the banks In October , IS'.K ' ) .
but the money Is coming back gradually nnd
It can bo u question of onlv a few months
when the loss caused by tiic depression of
last winter and spring will bo wiped out.
Taking the figures of the last statement
mode by the state banks on Juno ! H ) it will
be seen that the total donosits held bv the
Omaha banks are 8IfW2,8M.87. (
Anothornotlcoable feature In the statement
Is the heavy decrease in the rediscounts. In
last October there were no rediscounts re
ported , but In December the total was over a
half million dollars , showing that the banks
wore compelled to borrow quite freely. In
February this amount had been cut down
over one-half and the urosont statement
shows only 87,000.
In the matter of loans and discounts there
has been nn expansion of $518,101.10 as com
pared with the February statement.
A careful studj of the figures will bring
out a number of Interesting facU.

tlon of the national banks on July 0 , 1801 :

IX THE SHOPS.
Union Pacific Workmen Cnu H\ve : \
J i ht Hours by Asking.
The attention of Mr. T. II. Daily , chief
clerk In the oftlco of the superintendent of
motive power at the Union Pacific shops ,
was called to the remarks mndo by John
Qulnn , chairman of the mcetlne hold in the
Intcrcbtof the eight-hourlnw Monday night , to
the effect that n notice had boon posted in the
shops directing nil mon who wanted to work
eight hours to apply to tneir foremen. Mr.
Qulnn also remarked that this meant dis
charge for any man bravo enough to speak
for the now movement. Mr. Daily was asked
what truth , If any , was contained tn Mr.
Qultm's ' statement.
"Such n notice was posted , " replied Mr.
Daily , "as wo wanted to know Just what the
men wanted. It makes no difference to the
company whether the mon work eight hours
or nlno nnd one-half. They are all paid by
the -hour and have boon for EOIIIO tlmo.
If they want to work eight hours there would
bo no objection made. Not a single man has
made application to hnvo the hours cut down.
Even the men who were down nt Lincoln last
winter lobbying iu the interest of this law
hnvo not applied to have their hours reduced.
This eight hour business is all line theory ,
but when it touches the man's ' pocketbooks It
Is another thing altogether.
"Tho shops were run eight hours hist sura-
mar , " continued Mr. Dally , "and the men
were kicking nil the tnno. Wo have been
running nine nnd one-half hours this summer
and I have not heard of anyone kicking because -
cause the hours are too long.
"Our machinery Is running nil thotimoand
two shifts of mon are worked In order to got
out the material ahead of the workmen. The
company would bo perfectly willing to put on
three gangs Of men and let them work eight
hours each , but I will vcnturo to any there
would bo a tremendous howl go up if such a
thing was done.
"Tho chances are that wo shall kcop right
on nt before , runningniiioiimlonc-hnlf hours ,
and I don't believe there will bo any com
plaint. " _

The ambitious agents were then excluded
from the room , nnd were admitted
ono at n time to sine their lit-
.lo songs. Each bad his piece well
earned , and they told the commissioners
enough 'ibout ' making hose to enable thorn to
start a factory if tbov so deslrod. Air. Hartman -
man provided throiitrhout at the dissecting
iablo and performed clover post mortems on
each sample piece of hose passed up for in
spection. At last In ) cut his finger and passed
the cleaver over to Chief Galligan.
After deciding that they did not know how
nuch fabric hose they wanted , and that they
ivould probably buy moro or less of rubber ,
; ho board adjourned until 1 ! o'clock this nftor-
loon. The agents cussed mildly under their
"
breaths ut the delay and then "put on smiles
"hat were supposed to bu good for another
wcnty-four hours.
