    THE OMAHA DAILY Efo , WEDNESDAY , FKBKUATir 10 , 1890.
I h vo no hesitation now In rpeaklng exact !
what Is In my mind.
"Tho contest for the prMldsnllal nomlna
lion Is almost finished , It began , not week
or months , but years ago. The republican
of the United States have brought out b )
their generally expressed with Bjveral leading
prominent candidate ? , and the contest ha
waged betnecn these candidate * . Until with
In the past few days It has never been sug
gcstcd that any candidate would be p.re
ncnted by the fitate of Nebraska. No man
would do more than I would to honor m ;
state , or to bring high office to one of ou
esteemed citizens. Hid any Ncbraskan ex
pressed his dortre to enter the presldentla
race at a time when the field seemed falrlj
open , and before the minds of our peopl
had been made up , no one would have en
tered more heartily Into such a
movement thin myself ! but at thl
late date there la. In my Judg
mcnt , no position which the republican
of Nebraska can take , evcept to cither sup
port or antagonize William McKlnlcy. Those
who are not for him are necessarily agalns
him , and , no matter what guloa the oppos !
tlon may take , It Mill bo found that the
friends of William McKlnley are upon one
ride , his opponents on the other. So far
as I am personally concerned , I have no
received any Intimation that any Nebraska !
desires to contest at this time for the prcsl
dcntlal nomination.
KNOWS NO NEBRASKA CANDIDATE
"Before I consented to write the proscn
tatlon of McKlnlcy's name , which firs
appeared In the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette , and before I consented to publicly
champion him as a candidate at the Chicago
banquet , I took the precaution of ascertain
Ing that no Ncbraskan whoso name had been
mentioned In connection with the proDldentla
office desired to enter the field. I have neve
received nny other Intimation from anyone
having authority to speak , and I therefore
aiuumo that the only question which the
republicans of this ntato are called upon to
decide Is as to whether or not our delegate-
fchall support William MnlClnley or some
other outside candidate , and upon this Issue
the republicans of Nebraska are Invited to
como out Into the open and lot their wlshc
bo known , not by the Instruction of an ;
convention , but through the selection of oucl
representative republicans of this state as
can ba safely trusted to obey the known
wlDhes of Nebraska republicans In the
national convention.
"So far as I am personally concerned ,
shall not remain to take part In any contcs
that may arise. I only ask that the frlenda
of William McKlnlcy ECO to It that the wll
of the majority Is not thwarted. To see to
Is that every candidate for delegate to the
national convention honestly announces hlfi
position , and above all clso I ask that the
Nebraska delegation shall bo selected In
such a way that It cannot bo usd for bartc :
and exchange or become a part of that grca
political combination which already amounts
to a political conspiracy to defeat the wll
of the republicans of the United StatcD. "
BANNER GOES TO BANNER.
'At the conclusion of Senator Thuraton *
speech , F. W. Collins announced that nan
ner county had won the banner for the
largest McKlnley vote on a canvass made
several weeks since.
Hon. John L. Webster followed Senator
Thurston. to whom ho paid a high tribute , by
saying that Nebraska never more honoree
Itself than when It elected him to the United
States benate. But now. ho said , we were
n'lout to be confronted by a contest within
the republican party nt St. Louis. The
country was filled with disaster , and nothing
but protection could save It. McKlnley was
the grand disciple of the life-saving doctrine
of protection. Should Allison or Reed be the
nominee , the speaker could , as a republican
vote for him. But Nebraska owed a deb
of gratitude to William McKlnley. He had
cotng to the assistance of the state In the
campa'gn of 1894. The speaker said he was
not here to disparage any republican candi
date. But there was In the hearts of the
people a de-mand for thu candidate from
Ohio , and hooul3 be the candidate.
Representative Conaway of York was .the
last speaker , and pledged his county for
McKlnley.
Following Is the constitution adopted :
The object and purposeof thls'c'.ub shal
be ta advance tha.luter& > ls of Hon. Wllllan
McKlnley of Ohio In hll candidacy for the
republican nomination for the presidency
and to nld and assist Insecuring1 for him a

ply Martin struck him with his fist on the
temple , knocked him down , stamped on anc

FREMONT , Feb. 18. ( Special. ) The Nor
folk licet Sugar company has appolnte-l F. F.
liro\vn \ cf thlti city agent to secure contracts
for raising beets for the year 1896. The con
tracts which the farmers nro required lo
sign differ somewhat from thopo of the past
season , Tlio company agrees to pay $5 per
ton at the factory for all heels that reach the
Btandard of 12 per cent sugar and SO per
cent purity. For beets of 11 per cent sugar
nnd 75 per cent purity $3.75 per ton and for
beets running 10 per cent sugar and 70 per
cent purity J2.GO per ton. Heels are to be
delivered when called for by the factory at
nny tlmo after October 15. 1896. Thrce-
fourtho of the crop of high grade beeta IB to
bo delivered on or before November 15 , 1830 ,
nnd the balance on or before January 1 , 1897.
The beets under the standard of 12-80 are to
ho delivered after the high grade beetr. are
worked up and before February 15. 1S97.
Heels running tinder 10-70 will not bo ac
cepted. The analysis made nt the factory nro
to bo regarded as final nnd binding , but the
company will pormlt the farmers to employ a
competent chenilpt , give him the privileges of
Iholr laboratory nnd jiormlt nm | to compare
his tests with UIOM made by their che'mlpt.
The contract contains a further condition that
should the cmpany not receive the bounty
paid by the state for the eugar made by
thorn from beet ? of the standard grade of
12-80. then the farmer Is to receive but $4
per ton for such beets. The eoed Is to be
furnished by the company at the price of 15
cents per pound , to bo paid In cash or de
ducted from the proceeds of the first lot of
hocts delivered. The farmers are not per
mitted to sell or give away nny of the seed.
This contract will require the farmer * to
silo a portion of their crop without receiv
ing any extra pay therefor , as they did thin
year. It Is doubtful If ns largo nn acreage *
of bceto Is rnled In this vicinity In 1S9U
as was raised last year. D. W. Reynolds ,
who had sixty acres In last year , has signified
his Intention of putting In 100 the coming
season. A good many of the men who had
from flvo to ten acrea this year will not put
In nny , though the contract lo probably moro
Just than that of last year. Ono fault found
with It Is that there Is no tlmo specified In
It when the farmer will know whether his
beets will bo taken at all.

nu.llcnce. The most Important business was
the reading of the address of the president ,
MM. John V > * . Foster , wife of the ex-secre
tary of state. It showed th.it within six
month * fifty-seven societies had been organ
ized , 4,700 applications for mdmbcrshlp re
ceived and 700 enrolled. The budding of a
continental memorial hall In Washington
was advocated. Mrs. Ulycsts S. Grant waa
mentioned as one of the new members.
During the morning session the president
general Introduced to the congress the Mar
quise de Chambrum , great granddaughter of
General da la Fayette , and Mrs. McKee ,
datinhtcd c ! ex-President Harrison.
A strenuous effort will be mad ; at this con-
groio to br'ng about n reunion of the
Daughters of the American Revolution , now
a separate organization.
Mrs. John W. Foster presided at In ? evenIng -
Ing session. It was mainly In the form of
a concert arranged by the National hymn

and development of the nation's patriotic
musln from 1770 to 189G. Including the

When foreign architects visit Japan and
see. the cathedral of Buddhism for the flrst
time , says the Globe-Damocrat , they are
generally astonished at the magnificent
structure. It Is executed In pure oriental
style and Is richly ornamented with carv
ings. II. Ito , a famous builder of Nagoya
City , designed it. The structure was com
menced In 1878 and was completed this year.
The cost has been estimated At } 17,000,000.
It would have greatly exceeded this amount
had not numbrs of Buddhists worked with
out any recompense. As the structure
neared completion the committee having the
work In charge was much perplexed as to
flro Insurance. They found that no company
would assume the risk on such a valuable
wocden structure , the danger of destruction
by flro being very great , and thus the
premiums would amount to an enormous
sum of money. At last the committee de
cided on a design devised by Dr. Tanabo.
Numbers of powerful fountains were 'con
structed , both exterior and Interior , which
can he made to play on all parts of the
stii'cturc at the same time. Usually only
one great ornamental fountain Is playlnp ,
rising to the great height of 157 feet. This
Is probably the largest artificial fountain In
existence , emitting 82,050 gallons per hour.
In case of lire all the water pressure Is
directed through the fountains. Thus every
part of the structure , both Inside and out ,
could soon be drenched and any conflagration
scon extinguished.

ICuiiMiiH City Society.
A lawyer who has an ofllce In the New
York Life building , relates the Kansas City
Star , was nt a party the other night where
the principal divertlsement was tricks , one
of which recalls to the lawyer's mind one he
used to do when he was a school boy back In
Maine. He called for a whisk broom and
then , laying a nickel In the center of his
open palm , offered It to any one who would
sweep It oft with the broom. One of the
conditions was that the broom must bo held
straight up and the coin swept with the
ends of the broom straws.
"Oh. I can do that. " said a young woman ,
and she' took the broom and began to sweep
at the coin. The harder she swept the
tighter the coin stuck to the open palm of
the lawyer's hand. One after another , each
person at the party , tried to sweep off the
coin , and It was an astonishing thing that
the broom would not budge It.
Since then , the trick has spread and at
nearly every party some one shows the
whisk broom and nickel trick , and It causes
no end of wonder and amusement. Any
kind of small coin and any kind of whisk
broom are all that are needed to show the
trick.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 18. The hearing on
the refunding of the Pacific railroads debt , by
the ncnntc committee on Pacific railroads cm-
tlnued today. Senator Morgan continued hid
Inquiries concerning the destruction of the
papers of the Finance and Contract company ,
the examination remitting In some very sharp
passages between Mr. Morgan nnd Mr. Hunt-
Ington. Senator Morgan IntlmatoJ that ho
bollcvcd the papers were burned for the pur-
pso of destroying the proof of the Individual
liability of the stockholders , but Mr. llnr.t-
Irgtou InslMted they had been destroyed for
the purpose of cleaning out a room and because -
cause the business for which the company
li.ul been organized had been closed. He nttd
ho had micecstcd to Mark Hopkins that the
books bo destroyed , but did not remember
that there had been any reference In hla con
versation with Hopklno to the clauw In the
California constitution regarding the per
sonal liability of stockholders. Such a matter -
tor , said he. would have been referred to
the legal department of the road.
Senator Morgan "Did any lawyer advlso
ywi to destroy thcna papers ? "
Mr. Hunllngton "I think not. It was a
mere casual matter. Wo did not regard It
as serious. "
Mr. Morgan "It becomes serious here. 1
should like very much to have the books
here now. "
Mr , Huntlngton "t-should like very much
for you to have them , ' but In view of the fact
tliat they are not In existence. I don't See
how In the world you are going to get them. "
Reference being made 1o the California
momorl.il , Mr. Huntlngton raid It had
emanated from the Sutra meeting , but ha
declared that It was not half as earnest as
was Sutro , when he ( Sutro ) told him ( Mr.
Huntlngton ) that ho would fight him If ho
did not build his road out to hta ( Sutro'p )
place , where ho had a saloon and gambling
house. Ho said that these people who wcro
fighting him In California were"about as
uncanny a crowd as a farmer ever found In
hla hen roost. "
The examination wao then turned Into an
Inquiry as to the payment of the Contract
and Finance csmpany In the construction of
the Central Pacific and the organization and
operation of the Western Development com
pany and the Pacific Improvement company ,
composed largely of Central Pacific men , en
gaged In building other ra-uU In California.
At one tlmo during the progrcio of this
branch of the Inquiry , Senator Morgan sought
to confine Mr. Huntlngton'a replies to definite
lines , Senator Fryo interfered to say that the
witness should bo allowed to answer in his
own way.
way.TAKES
TAKES HIS OWN METHOD.
"I want him to answer , " replied Mr. Mor
gan. "That is what I am trying to get him
to do , but I am going to conduct this ex
amination exactly to my taste until the committee
mitteeBtops ? me. "
The questioning In thb connection de
veloped that the Central Pacific organizers
had built three other roads in California ,
connected with the Central Pacific , and had
bought about twelve , which had failed. Mr.
Huntlngton said that the roads built had
coE't about $10,000 per mlle and the con
struction companies had been paid with bonds
at this rate , which were Issued by the Cen
tral Pacific company.
When the afternoon session began Senator
Morgan was the only member of the com
mittee present , though others came In later.
Mr. Morgan continued his examination of
Mr. Huntlngton , as to the connection of the
Central Pacific with Its branch lines In
California.
Taking up the question of the government
Indebtedness , Senator Morgan asked Mr.
Huntlngton If ho considered the Interest
which has been paid by the government on
the guarantee bonds a part of the Central
Pacific debt to the government. Mr. Huntington -
ton replied he did. That his proposition was
( o calculate the entire amount up to the
maturity of the bonds , Including Interest , aa
well aa principal , and count It all as prin
cipal. He did not , however , understand that
he wag to be expected to pay Interest on
Interest. Ho did not think the company could
pay moro than 2 per cent Interest on this
extension.
Replying to an assertion made at a mass
meeting In San FrnnclFco that he , Stan
ford , Perkins and Croker , had accumulated
a combined fortune of $200,000,000 , ho Rild
It was "a He , " aa was the statement that
they had received from city , county , state
and nation , property of four times the
amount of cost of building the roads.
To the charge of extortionate freight
rates , Mr. Huntlngton said the people In New
Jer > oy and Delaware wore complaining of
the competition of California fruit , because
of the low rates made by his roads. That
ho thought was a sufficient refutation of the
charge.
EVADED THE ANSWER.
Senator Morgan asked Mr. HuntlngUm how
much money he had put Into these roads
which he had1 not made In railroading.
This did not bring out a direct answer , but
Mr. Huntlngton told Jn this connection ,
how he had made a great deal of the money
In the C. & O. , Big Sandy , and various
roads In Virginia , West Virginia , Ken
tucky and Tennessee , all of which ha ha.l
taken when they had bean abandoned , and
which he had built so as to inako largo
sums of money. He had put all these
profits Into California and the west , and
Into stocks , none of which paid him any
dividends. He thought ho must have been
worth $1,000,000 when ho began his rail
road career , but ho was poorer when the
Pcclflc work was completed than when IIP
began , because- the Immense debts which
had been accumulated.
Mr. Huntlngton stated that the Southern
Pacific company had agreed to pay $1,300,000
psr year for the lease of the Central Pa
cific , but that the earnings 01 some years
on this line had not bsen equal to the
rental , and the contract was changed seas
as to provide the amount paid was not to
exceed the earnings. '
Senator Morgan tried to bhow In this
connection that the railroad business which
would naturally have gone over the Cen
tral Pacific was diverted through the means
of this contract to the Southern Pacific , BO
as to diminish the Central Pacific earnings.
Mr. Huntlngton said competition was very
close. Ho ftatcJ , however , that the busi
ness of the two roads was managed by
ono man , Mr. Stnbbs , who was the freight
agent for both roads , but , while this wan

Senator Morgan then asked If It was not
his ambition to throw all the business ho
could over to the Southern Pacific. I
Mr. Huntlngton replied he had tried PR-
pcclnlly to build up a business between
California and Europe , and ho had dlrcctod
his efforts to that end.
The senator also tried to develop the fact
that Mr. Huntlngton , being more largely
Interested In the Southern Pacific than the
Central Pacific , would naturally have re
quired the joint officials of the two roads
to exercise their offices In behalf of the
Southern Pacific line , but Mr. Huntlngton
parried the thrusts and did not admit this
to bo true.
"Havo you ever really expected the Cen
tral Pacific could bo prosperous when Its
builder and guardian was so largely In-
tcrested In and the chief executive officer
of Its principal rival ? " asked Mr. Mor
gan.
gan."I believe , " replied Mr. Huntlngton. "that1
the Central Pacific has fared as well In my
hands as It could havs fared In the hands
of nny other man. I have never directed
any of tha active ofllcers of the road to
divert any of the business from the Cen
tral Pacific to the Southern Pacific. "
The hearing will be resumed again next
Thursday.
