The much tall < cd-of organization of the
"business Interests of Omaha , " that U to
do go much for the people of Nebraska
by Insuring the election of the
tattooed candidate for governor , has
finally been perfected and the citizens of ,
Omaha have for the flr.it time an opportunity
to look at Ihe names of the men who have
gone Into the business of "preserving" the
credit of the city and of ttie state egalnst
the threatened overthrow ot the B. & M.
oligarchy. An Inspection of the list of
names attached to the muster rolls ot this
"calamity army reveals the presence of a
great many prominent men who ha'vo long
been recognized ns veterans In the railroad
I * army. In fact , the new organization Is
Ibf
merely a rehabilitation of old forces dressed
In now cloaks. The people are expected to
be deceived by the bright , new uniforms nnd
to be con fused by the loud latlng ot the
railroad drums , but the citizens ot this state
have too long been familiar with the tactics
of this grand army of corporate strikers and
camp followers.
The active participants In the alleged busi
ness men's organization are Henry W. Yatcs ,
Luther Drake , John A. McShanc , AV. A. Pax-
ton. Frank Colpetzer. C. N. Deltz , II. E.
Palmer , L. D. Fowler , Herriian Kountze ,
W. U. McIIugh and Dan Farrcll.
While these names are shoved prominently
to tlio front of the organization , the prime
movers In the scheme are Henry W. Yatw ,
president of the Nebraska National bonk ;
W. A. Paxton and John A. McShane. These
three staunch Majors supporters are all
democrats and each one' of them Is promi
nently Identified with Interests that are ( o be
subserved by the election of Tom Majors.
The Nebraska National bank , ot whlcli
Henry W. Yatcs Is president. Is the well
known B. & M. depository In this city. The
bank handles the Immense sums of money
disbursed by the Burlington system In the
west. It Is the clearing house for the scores
of little banks all through the we3t along
the line of the B. & M. that handle the
B. ft M. funds. It la well known that the
II. & II. some time ago abandoned the prac
tice of paying off Its thousand ] of employes
011 Its western system by means of the old
fashioned pay car. Now the pay car is
Idle In the yards , while the employes are
paid oft each month by checks drawn on local
banks throughout the west. By doing this
the 3. & M. avoids the danger of having
Its pay car wrecked nnd robbed , and also
binds to Itself all the little country bankers
\\lio \ are favored with Its business. The Nebraska
braska- National bank Is the main clearing
house for B. & M. business. Between voting
his party preferences and Individual choice
nnd Ids B. & M. patronage , Mr. Yates natur
ally prefers to surrender his Individuality ,
abandon his party and place himself entirely
at the disposal of Czar Holurege.
QUALIFICATIONS OF THE OFFICKRS.
Naturally Mr. Yatea did not -svant to be
too prominently Identified with everything
bearing tlio B. & M. brand , and so tlio pres
idency was conferred upon Luther Drake ,
casliler of the Merchants' National bank ,
The Merchants' National bank occupies pre
cisely the same relation to the Fremont ,
Elkhoru & Missouri Valley railroad that- the
Nebraska National does to the B. & M. Mr.
Drake was selected ior the presidency , not
because lie was a republican , but simply be
cause he was ta > convenient agent to work
the will ot VJtes ! * .Holdrtgo. Paxton and
McSIiane. . _ , ; , _ .
Coming to the cxviutlvo commutes wo
find first on the Hat the name of Lorenzo
D. Fowler , caslilor of the German Savings
bank. Mr. Fowler is n I ) . & M. poli
tician with a long pedigree. He formerly
resided In Clay county , where , with the
notorious J. W. Johnson , then editor of the
Button Advertiser , but now the B , & M
representative < 6ntlio State Board of Trans
portation , ( a position ho secured through
Fowler's Influ me ? ) , ho manipulated Clay
county politics In' the Interest cf the II. &
M. candidate. Itwas Fowler and Johnson
that overturned the expressed wishes ot
tlio Clay county delegation In 18"i9 " , nnd by
the purchase ot proxies tunrd that dole-
Ration to the state1 convention against Judge
Reese. Fowler Is the ablest politician In
tlio whole executive commlttM cf ths busi
ness and railroad men's combine , and lie
la recognized everywhere lie Is known as
the staunch friend of every political pro.
Ject conceived at the B. & M. he-idquar
tors.
tors.Next
Next on the executive committee Is Wil
liam A. Paxton , a democrat , vht > has made
no Becrct of his deslro to see Tom Majors
both nominated and elected. Paxton is
prominently Identified with many Interests
in this city and South Omaha that are dc
psndent on the railroads for substantial
favors ,
In Tact. It may V said thcio Is not a busi
ness venture In which William A. Paxton
Is at present engaged that is hot vitally con-
ncctfid with the railroad interests , nnd It
Is worthy ot note that all that Paxton can
secure from the H. * M. Is nn advantage
In' the. way of rates anj rebafs that cannot
bo ECcilred by business men who refuse to
make common cause with the railroad
managers In politics ,
Next on the executive committee Is John
A McShanc , president ot the Union Stock
Yards company nnd the Union Stock Yards
bank nt South Omaha and a democrat. Me-
Bbano Is the -especial guardian cf tht- stock
yards company. Hnd for the past two ses
sions of the 1 p.lslnture It has bjen Mc-
Shano'a business lo prevent any legislation
regulating stock yards. Tom Majors has
always been tt slick worker In sidetracking
and pigeonholing the Meek yards hills
Iiefnco McSnano Is for him first , last and al

Another prominent member of the oxucu
tlvo committee is Captain II. E. Palmer
known all ovnr the st.ilo ns the czar'a "mn
Friday. " Captain Palmer has so long been
a recognized political manipulator for the
B. M. that hIJ association with "business

1T3 PLAN OF CAMPAIGN.
From thla tltne until olccllon day the
state will be- flooded with the penny sheets
containing- the songs of ralamlty. ruin and
jl nht that will surely fall aver the state If
TnttooeJ Tom Majors Is not placed In the
governor's chulr. The committee has al
ready sent confidential agents east to mis-
repreienl the actual situation In Nebraska
and to secure from eastern capitalists and
banfceri letters pointing but the absolute
certainty of financial ruin to follow the
election nf JiidRe llotoomb. These agents
ara inntiucted to represent that Majors
stands for the" tnlslneis credit of Nebraska
and that { rolcomb represents the anarchists
and wild-eyed populists. Rastern bu Iness
men will be assured that If Holcomb Is
elected NenraaKa will repudiate her Indebt
edness nnd that the legislature will pass
laws prohibiting the foreclosure of mort
gages , reduc'ng rates of Interest and pcr-
tnllttiiK almost Indefinite postponement of
the payment of judgments. Eastern capital
ists will te told that if Holcomb Is not
t > eaton Nebraska bonds will not be worth
the paper the/ are printed upon. The paid
emissaries of the Burlington organization
\vll ! run the whole gainut of the song of
woe. regardless of the effect that their dire
predictions rtiay have upon the future credit
of ttio Htate.
As teen as these agent ! ) are actively at
work the returns may be expected tn come
| n. The nurllngton Journal at Lincoln will
bo fllltd full of threatening letters from
alleged eastern * bahltallsts and Investors to
the effect that'the east demands the election
of Tom Ma'Jors In' the InUre'ts .of cap'tal.
Many of these letters will doubtless be gen
uine , for .the iwrltcrs may bo Imposed upon
by the suave methods cf the olty-longued
railroad representatives. But the large ma
jority of the letters will be expressly man
ufactured for the occasion ,
Theaj letters will deceive no one tn Ne-
liraplm. The people of this state know that
the real Issue In the cotnlnt ; campaign Is
whether or not the B , & M. railroad can
force n dishonest and obnoxious camltdntn
down ths throats ot thp people , or wheth r
the people will throw off the railroad yoke
'
nhfch tfi'ey have been compelled to wear
for so many years , The credit of th3 etato
Is not threatened tn the least.
Referring to the outrageously false and
misleading statements now bolntr made to
the effect that Nebraska's credit will bo
ruined by the election of Judge Holcomb , n
gentleman -well known throughout the state
says :
'In their zeal to ororcomi the tremendous
deus opposition to Majors the men -who are
managing , or rather mismanaging , his cam
paign , are falling Into a serious error. They
arc asserting with well simulated confidence
'that the. election of Judgi Holcofnb means
niiancl.il ruin for Nebraska. They assert
that If Holcomb Is elected Nebraska can
dispose of no more bonds , that farmers can
not renew loans as they fall duo , that' farm
ers cannot secure new loans on real estate
security , that rates of Interest will advance
and that a general repudiation of debt will
follow.
"Now , what will these zealous gentlemen
say In the event of Holcomb'jJ success ? What
will Mr. Kountze say to the eastern parties
whom ha hopes to Interest In his canal pfo-
Ject ? What will ho say to the men who are
askeil to Invest In city bonds for public
works ? Will Mr * . Kcuntzo assure these gen-
tleuien after Holcomb Is elected that his
statements made now before the election has
taTxCn place were mere campaign buncomb. In
tended to frighten pecplo Into foisting a
railroad tool upon the people ? Or will he tell
them thai Douglas county bonds are a dan
gerous Investment tinder a populist governor ?
Ji\Vhat will our Investment agencies say
to the men \vho own the money that Is
every year being loaned on Nebraska farms ?
When Holcomb Is elected , will these brokers
go out of business , and tell their eastern
principals that no more monW can be loaned
In Nebraska until a populist governor has
served his term ? Or will they admit that
they were merely lying for campaign pur
poses ?
' 'What will these people say to eastern
Investors who may demand' the higher rates
of interest when Holcomb la elected ? Will
tlioy rustle around In a hopeless endeavor
to loan money at 9 per cent jvhen their com
petitors are offering to loan at 6 per cent ?
Or will thsy admit that they were simply
talking through their hats ?
"Nebraska will have to face this situa
tion. If Judge Holcomb Is elected the state
will continue business at the old stand.
Bonds will be Issued and sold , farms will
be mortgaged , Interest will bo paid , enter
prises will be Inaugurated , capital will seek
investment. These men who are preaching
calamity are simply Injuring the state , and
they nro Indicting n greater Injury than a
populist governor of Judge Holcomb's worth
could possibly inflict 1C elected to the ofllce
ot governor for life.1
HAS A NICE CONTINGENT FUND.
Ti"rorn Inside sources it Is learned that
fully $30,000 Is to be disbursed among venal
voters to keep up the credit of the state ,
The first Installment of the corruption fund
has been duly received and the remainder
will follow In Installments as rapidly as
tun exigency may demand. A part of this
boodle Is to be handled by the republican
state committee , which Is tn close touch
with tha business men's executive board. A
very considerable part of this lubricator Is to
bo placed nt the command of the Majors
railroad democrats and the rump ticket
stccrcrs. who arc to conduct a campaign ol
their own with a view to roping In demo
crats that are holding federal positions and
democrats that are susceptible to moral
suasion with standard silver dollars at the
legal ratio. _

ST. PAUL , Oct. 6 , Twenty speeches , some
of them quite short , were made between.DCS
Molnes and St. Paul. The whole country
scorned to bo out. Even at the stations where
no stops were made Inhabitants stood on
ho platforms and cheered as the train rolled
> y. At Mason City Junction , the last station
n Iowa , the Minneapolis reception committee ,
consisting of ox-Governor Merrlam and sev
eral members dr tlltr republican state com
mittee , took Governor McKlnlcy in charge
and Accompanied him to St. Paul. At Austin
McKlnloy left tlis 'train and spake at some
cngth from the platform of the stage to an
audience of probably 2,000. "It gives me
iloasuro. " ho said , "to meet the citizens of
Minnesota , and t am especially glad to find
the same spirit hero that I found In Ma I no
: wo weeks ago and that I have since found In
Kansas , Nebraska and Iowa , and even In
democratic Missouri.
'Under the tariff law of 1S99 ( which the
democratic leaders declared to be the cul-
nlnatlng atrocity of class leg.slatlon ) agri
culture liad protection the like of which It
never had before. Prior to 1830 we Imported
nore than fU.000,000 worth of agricultural
> roducts from Canada , and after the tariff
law of90 went Into operation In the follow-
lowing year we Imported of like products
[ 1,000,000 worth , , and 17.000,000 that prior
o the passage of the law went Into the
lockets of the Canadian farmers In the
'allowing year went Into the pockets of the
American farmer. Contlder tlics ? facts and
vote for what you bellevpi to be the belt for
your farms and your firesides. "
It was after 7 o'clock when St. Paul was
reached , and Governor McKlnlcy was driven
to the home of ex-Governor Merrlam at once ,
whose guest ha will be during Ills stay. A
mighty sliout of welcome was given by the
crowd In front of Governor Merrlatn's real-
lencc. A torchlight procession escorted the
jovernor to the Aui torlum , which was packed
by 8,000 people. Ex-Governor Merrlam pre
sided and Governor McKlnley delivered a
long address , devoted mainly to the larllt.
The close of the week finds Governor Mc
Klnlcy In fine physical condition notwith
standing the extraordinary test of endur
ance which he has undergone. Slnco Mon
day lie has addressed forty audiences In
five different states and traveled 2,453 rnlles ,
yet his voice rings out as clear and strong as
when he left his native state.
MARSHALLTOWN , la. , Oct. 0. McKlnley
arrived from Des Molnes at 0:40 : n. m. today ,
accompanied by Governor Jackson. Congress
man Henderson , Chairman Blythe and other
distinguished republicans. The committee of
escort from this city met the visitors at
Nevada. The noted advocate of protection
was hurried up town to Courthouse park ,
where he spoke far twenty minutes In the
open air to fully G.OOO people. His speech ,
though necessarily brief , was characteristic ,
pointed anil forcible , and the enthusiasm of
the crowd was unbounded. Colonel Hender
son spoke briefly , following McKlnley , who
embarked for St. Paul.
ACKLEY , la. , Oct. 6 , The governor said :
"I have been speaking for some days , doing
what I could for republican principles and
tha republican party , and I have found that
It Is In the hearts of the American people to
stand by the great principles of a pro
tective tariff , which mcins patriotism and
prosperity. Wo are Indebted more'that ) we
can express to President Cleveland and Ills
administration for the splendid spirit pf re
publicanism that we find everywhere in the
land. Everything. , has suffered since- that
fatal day , ] ri ovember.j 1S'J2 , Imt the re
publican party , The principles that
party are dearer to the American people to
day than they have ever been before , and
wo can almost afford to bear with the Ilia
that have been upon us during the last two
years , because they have made the people of
the country see that the material prosperity
of thl-J country la safer In the hnnds of the
republican party than In the hands of the.
democratic party. "
Congressman Henderson accompanied
Governor McKlnley from DCS Molnes and
Introduced him to the people In his district.
Governor Jackson and Chairman Blythe also
escorted McKlnley to the Minnesota line.

YOHIC , Net. . Oct. 6. ( Speclal.-Hon. )
Jolm L. AVobStVr spoke hrro this evening.
Among other topics ho discussed was the
sugar Industry , In reference to which he
said :
"Under tlis MoKJnley- lave raw sugar was
admltt.O tree 6f duty. The rccolpta of the
Treasury department show that under that
aw $60,000,000 , was saved to the American
people annually/ Instead of being sent ,
abroad for the benefit of sugar raisers In'
other countries , The democratic party , In
Its rush toward frw trade , ln Us determlrfed
course to shut up American factories , ' to'
> arnlyzo Industries , to cut down \rages , ana1
; o throw 3,000,000 persons out of employment ,
for Its darling hobby , free trade , has so
destroyed the revenues ot the country that
lietr.usury was empty'and the administra
tion was confronted , as Secretary Carlisle
reported , with a deficiency of WO.000.060 , and
It must either go back to a McKlnley tarl/t /
or to the levying ot a Tariff on sugar. No
Mender that Senator Mills said of this bill :
'I make bold to say here today that that
hill does not reflect the sentiments of 1,000
of the people of the United States. !
Wo found ourselves betowcen the devil and
the deep sea , and we went to sea , rather
than seethe ' '
" country 'go to the devil.
"Statistics show that the people of this
country consume annually sixty pounds per
capita of sugar. The sugar consumed by
tile population of Nebraska amounts "to"
70,000,000 pounds annually , which , under the
McKinley law , cost the people of this state
J3.GOO.OOO a .yea ? .
"Already the democratic tariff law has had'
its effect , and the price of sugar has been
so increased as a result thereof that at the
present time we are paying an additional
sum per year of $1,400,000 , or n sum total of
$1.900,000 for sugar. In these times cf de
pression , when by reason of the drouth the
fajrmers of the western half ot this state
have been brought close to the door of hUnj
ger , how much wiser would have been the
legislation which would have taken this
$1,400,000 and donated it to n suffering
people rather than to have added that enor
mous sum to our taxes for the benefit of
this great Anaconda , the Sugar trust.
"Under the McKlnley law , back of which
was republican wisdom and republican poll-
tics , a bounty was offered for the homo pro
duction of sugar. Republican principles and
republican politics legislated for the people
and for the upbuilding ot Nebraska's sugar
Interests. Republican principles and repub
lican politics saw that this state needed
more Ot versified interests nnd industries , and
led to the encouragement of any new Indus
try which would yield 'to the people of this
state additional revenue and furnish employ
ment to additional men , and cncouraga the
cultivation of the * soil In something other
than grains whicli are liable to wither when
summer's drouths come.
"Republican wisdom reasoned that the vas
acreage In the valleys of the Platte and of
the Nlobrara iWjif | an admirable soil for thu
cultivation of ( Jplj'Jsar ' beet. Factories were
started at GrauB blfand and at Norfolk. For
the encouragement of this enterprise a sugar
bounty was.jimyUled. fho republican
party saw the vast possibilities that
this state TjiWiiwl"up - for the crea
tion of a great Industry. Our
soil Is rich lri"th\3mlcal \ substances supplied
by nature for the cultivation of the sugar
beet , richer than Ws the soil 'or ' Germany ,
Last year Germahy produced 1(350,000 ( tons
of sugar fromi'BeetB. Thin was about double
the. quantity 'neeeifeary for the use or the
people of tlidQderthnr * empire , and 263,000
tons of that sugar were exported to America.
The people".ofrfAtfi fflca'pald lo Germany ttlb
cost of 520,000000" ! pounds of that sugar.
The acreage of Nebraska , with that ot its
neighboring states , presents a sugar area
greater than that ot Germariy. By proper
encouragement tha state of Nebraska alone
could grow a sufficient qtutntlty of sugar
beets and produce sufficient sugar nqt only
to supply our people of the state of Ne
braska , but to' supply one-half of the Amerl- '
can union.- .
"There Is no'good ' reason to * doubt that If
tlid McKlnley law had been cont'hued ' In
forco' for twehty-fivs- years , Nebraska alone
could have sent out $100,000,000 worth of
sugar annually. . -
"Within that time our export ot sugar
would have become equal to our entire pres
ent export of' wheat , corn and oats. We
would have had a source ot revenue which
would have made our people financially pros
perous and happy. It would have furnished
our people money In time of financial de
pression. H woiild live furnished employ
ment to COO.OOO farmers. There lies burled
in the soil of Nebraska sufficient saccharine
matter , If brought out and utilized , to form
a greater source of wealth to , our state than
the silver and gold mines to the state of
Colorado.
"But this enterprise has received a blightIng -
Ing- stroke at the hands of the democratic
party , which has voted to abolish the bounty
upon the home production of sugar. All re
publicans should see to It that no man shall
bo elected to either house of congress who is
not willing to vote to sustain this domestic
Industry. "

Interest nnd welfare cf tbe city.
Wo view with nlurm tbe tin'Mr nnd un
just treatment of the people's patty of this
city at thehnnds of the municipal author
ities. Inasmuch OK thu partv wis not given
a fair representation on the registration

In the election wards.
We denounce the action of n peculiar
organization Jn the cltv known ns the so-

Whllo the time before election Is very
brief the city campaign , which 1ms Just
opened , will be a. very lively one. The re
publican city convention will bo held next
Saturday and the democratic will probably
meet on the same day. These conventions will
nominate five candidates for the Board of
Education' and a candidate for city clerk , al
though there seems to be some- doubt yet as
to Just what Is required In the Utter Instance ,
The ordinance introduced In tu& council pro
viding for the filling of vacancies has not
been acted on by the council , and there Is a
difference of opinion as to what action should
be taken In the case.
For city clerk the democrats have but ono
candidate , John -Evans , who Is filling the
ofllce now under appointment by the mayor ,
and who was deputy clerk under the late
Will Wakeley , There are two republican
candidates , Beech Hlgby of the Ninth ward
and Van B. Lady of the Eighth.
For candidates for the council thcro will
be no lack of timber. Some of the present
eonncllmeri are seeking re-election , but for
the most part the candidates ore new men.
In the Klrst ward S. I. Gordon seems to
have the call for the republican nomination.
He made quite a record for himself In get
ting the south side park located , and has
secured other | mpr6vemenls for his ward ,
Just llko a councilman. Joslah Kent , Jon
athan Bd wards and John P. Coots are also
talked1 of In connection with the nomination.
Tom Lowry , Jim Flanncry , D. L. Cartan and
Louis Herman are seeking the democratic.

the , Omaha Smelting works , will carry the
populist banner , and Isaac Unseal ! , states
man , will run on a petition ticket , having
been rejected by all of the oilier parties.
Tred Hoyo jind Anton Kment will contester
( or tli a republican nomination In the Second ,
while Henry Itolf , Thomas Flynn , Max
Becht and Fred Bloemer are seeking the
democratic , endorsement.
Tom Bermlngham , Dick Burdlsh , Patrick
Ford and A. B. ilcAndrows , the present Incumbent -
cumbent , are after the democratic endorsement
'
ment In 'the Third ward , while Sol Princa
and' Leo Helslcy are seeking the republican
nomination.
Major Wheeler wants the republicans to
return him from , the Fourth ward and F.
B. Kennard will contest for the nomination
at the , primaries. V , B. Caldwell has no op
position for the democratic nomination , ex
cept Frank Langa , Steve Crowe nnd D. T.
Mount and George Seay and T , J. O'Brien
and a few others ,
Councilman Saunders has a clear field for
rcnomjnatlon by the republicans of the.
Fifth ward , while his democratic opponent
will probably be selected from this list : 1.
J. Dunn , John McOorry , Thomas II. Dally.
Louis Littlefleld has been the head worker
among the republicans of the Sixth ward
for years and now thinks he ought to go to
the council. He has a large and enthusiastic :
following , but will have a fight on Ills hands
for the nomination. Mr. Jaynes , now a mem
