"Cyclono" Davis of Texas nnd John II.
Power * , pop'il'st ' ' candidate for state treas
urer , delivered populist speeches at Jeffer
son square last e\onlng to nn audience of
ibout 1,000 men. Da\ls Is the populist can-
tldate for congress In the Fourth district ol
Texm , and Is nn orator who has already
attained a reputation in nearly nil of the
western states. In his speech last cvenlnc
he atked Us hearers to forget all their sym
pathy with the views of the three political
parties and resolve themselves Into patriotic
American citizens. As for himself ho hail
belonged to the democratic party lor many
years. II the democratic party told him
to go out and butt a tree , ho no\er asked but
ono question , and that was to Inquire Just
how hard Iho democratic pirty wanted the
tree butted. He had always voted for lha
yellow dog and for anybody and anything
on the earth tint had betn labeled demo
cratic Now ho belonged to no party , liul
for four years had affiliated with the popu
lists ; but when that party abandoned the
people ho proposed to abandon It.
Ho then discussed the cardinal urlnclplts
of the populist party. Ho declared that
under the Declaration of Indep3ndence all
men were created equal , with certain Inalien
able rlchts. Under the lav.sas they now
exist there were two kinds of rights , natural
and vested , the natural rights lielni ? tlio e
guaranteed by the Declaration of Independ
ence and the constitution , nnd the \ested
rights b Ing those conferred upon corpora
tions. Man , the speaker contended , wm en
titled to the rights given him by his Creator.
Corporations , he asserted , were artificial men ,
created by law. The present conflict was not
between capital and labor , but between the
real man that God made nnd the artificial
man , the lifeless , bloodless , pitiless , inercl-
Irta , con clouslcss , cjcleES , tearless , human-
Ityless man made by law. This artificial
man , standing for the great corporate In
terests of the nation , now owned a largo
portion ol the lands ot the United States ,
owned the railroads and the mines , owned
the banks and controll d the money Hy a
scratch of aen / the prlco of coal could be
advanced enough so that the fires In
1,000,000 homes would go out Icfore winter
commenced. Ily a scratch of a pen railroad
transportation rates could be advanced enough
to take from the farmer all the proat on his
year of toll I3y a scratch of a pen 1,000,000
employes of railways and factories could be
deprived of employment and left penniless
on the verge of winter To this extent the
artificial man , the corporations , were the
masters of the people.
The popullstBi , he asserted , demanded the
ownership of the land by the people , the
ownership of the railroads by the govern
ment and the control of the money by the
people. Alluding to some of the arguments
In favor of government ownership of rail
roads ho claimed that last year the railroads
pild out $15.000,000 for attorneys' services
the people paid rallnml commissions $92 ,
000,000 ; the government paid $24,000,000 foi
hauling the malls and $10,000,000 for trans
portation of congressmen , soldiers and gov
ornmcnl employes. These millions all cami
out of the pockets of the people In the end
and If the government owned and opcratet
the railroads Is would save this annual out
liy. and the saving on these Items aloni
v ould pay for the railroads In thirteen years
In conclusion the speaker advise I l&borlni
men to stand together , vote thlr conviction
ami refute to ba ltd any longer by the eli
parties.
Mr. Powers spoke of the 4.009,030 o
tramps roaming over the country , and as
crlbcd the existence of the tramps to th
money sj stern fostered by the old parties.
Both speakers will address the peoples o
South Omaha , this evening , and anothe

P. E. nilllland , chairman of the federated
board of the Union Pacific system , was at

bulging out with Rrlcvances , which ho de
sired to submit to the general manager , hut
an Mr. Dickinson was out of the city , Mr.
GlUllnnd concluded bin business could nt. !
Talking to a I3ce man , ho stated that tlic
employes on the South Park road had rc-
cehecl a great many more concessions than
the press hnd Intimated. "While they re-
duc.d the operators to $45 and $ ! > 0 per month ,
they lacked on a 20 per cent commission on
ticket sales , operators on this line having to
act tn the capacity of station agents ns well
as operators. These commissions will be
r.one aver oerv three months , and If they
( all behind the officers of the road ha\c In
timated that th : differences v.111 be made up
' Tills system Is In effect on the Missouri
Pacific , and 1 belloo elves general satis
faction "
Hegnrdlng the action of the employes on
the Or Ron Italhvny & Navigation conipanj- ,
Mr. Ollllland raid : "Tho different branches
of labor on Mr. McN'elll's iysttm have
united In an action before the Judge
of that circuit praying- for a hear
ing , and setting up that the wages
paid are not burdensome. The men
bcl't\e that the Judge In Oregon Is Inclined
toward the position taken by Judges Caldwell -
well and tllner In the famous Union Pacific
wage case. Judge Sanb rn Is an associate
with the present Judge sitting In the Oregon
district , and as Judgi Klnw of Wyoming
w is Bitting with Jidgo Calducll hi place of
Judge Sanborn , the men feel prftty confi
dent of receiving fair treatment at the hands
of the court. "
Upon the question of closing telegraph
oflces , Mr. Gllllland stated that twehe offi
ces had been closed on the Grand Island
r ad which , while under a different gen
eral manager la op'rated by the receivers
of thp Cnlon Pacific. He thought nothing
would bo done on the main line of the Union

proposition was fcrmally adopted or dis
cussed today by the transcontinental lines ,
a much m re hopeful feeling existed when
the association broke up than hnd been the
case at any time previously since the con
ference began.
Some excitement existed here today In
passenger circles over alleged deals with
brokers which some roads are accused ol
making In connection with Grand Army
tickets. The sale of these tickets will be
gin ailurd. y. The restrictions which were
at first adopted to prevent bcalplng havt
all been removed. It U claimed blocks ol
the return portions of these tickets , with tilt
going coupon clipped oft , have been sold tc
Chicago brokers. They read ta points all
o\er the webt and southwest and their un
limited sale will \ery materially Interfere
with the regular rates.
A change Is proposed In the transcon
tinental rate sheets whereby the rate tc

rail routes , returning \la the direct rouc :
through any Missouri river gateway througl
which a through rate applies from sellitif

road was considering the advisability ot re

his opinion the Una north of Kansas City
would not be affected- the contemplated
reduction. "In facf,111 said he , "I cannot
sett how the reduction on the Nebraska ex-
ttrclon Is to be brought about , and I have
concluded to look elsewhere for dropping
trains. Of course our orders arc Imperative
for curtailment \vhere\cr possible , but In
this case It seems Impossible. A St. Joe

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Clty liiiclnrer's Koport on Ilir Vtmi of the
I'lutto itml Clkliorn Klvcr * .
At a m ctlng of the county commissioners
yesterday afternoon a resolution offered by
Paddock caused \vordy conflict that for ix
moment savored of the good old times when
the nar correspondent was Invariably as
signed to cov3r the meetings of the board
The resolution was simply to the effect that
the county clerk bo Instructed to advertise for
bids tor not to e\cacd 1C 000 > ards of grading
on the Mlllard road , just west of where the
grading for macadam ends
Williams opposed the resolution , stating
that the road In question was In better con
dlt'on than CO per cent of the country roads
and the proposed expenditure \vas alto
gather uncalled for at the present time
Ho Intimated that Paddock had not Intro
duccd the resolution \vlth any Idea of having
It passed , but simply to feel the pulse o
the board.
This was Indignantly repudiated by Pad
dock , vi ho took the nn-crtlon as a persona
reflection on his Integrity , but a motion ti
dofrr action on the resolution until the nex
nuetlng ended the combat and the belliger
ents rested on their arms.
