LINCOLN' , Oct. 3. ( Special. ) There Is
an undercurrent of political strife among
the fuslonists In this state that Is bearing
on something further In the future than
the coming November election. For more
than a year the "allied forces of reform"
have realized that a tlmo will como some
day when the fusion deal must bo dropped
and the crowd marching under Its three
banners must unite under one name. It
Is this question of a narao that Is worrying
the popocratlc politicians , nnd In the con
sideration of the question such small
Hems as party principles nnd party plat
forms arc allowed to cut no figure. The
democrats are sure that the party must
bear the name "democrat , " because It
would then be In line with the only branch
of the fusion party that Is cutting any
figure In national politics , nnd would re
ceive the assistance of the national com
mittee , as well as the Immediate support
of democrats who come here from other
states. To make these claims still stronger
element asserts
the Smyth-Maret-Dahlman
that the democratic votes In the election
of last fall outnumbered those of the popu
lists and silver republicans together. To
make , this seem perfectly reasonable they
point to the fact that prior to 1890 , when
the two old parties occupied the field In
the state , the normal republican majority
was about 15,000. nnd that now , after the
large Increase In population , the organiza
tion of the populist party and the fusion of
the populists and democrats against the
common enemy , the republicans are still
casting nearly one-half of the total vote.
This argument Is used to prove that the
populists In the present fusion deal are
furnishing only about 20,000 votes aside
from those that originally belonged to
the democrats. This leads the old-ttmo
democrats < o Inquire , Why should wo give
up our party name when we have 85,000
votes nnd the populists only have 20,000 ?
Mnnt He Settled Next Yenr.
This sort of argument does not have a
soothing effect on the populists. They
nrguo that they have the larger share ot
the votes In the deal nnd that if there Is a
move to condense the names of the allied
forces Into the single- nanu"democratic"
they will forthwith put n midillf-of-tho-rond
populist party In 'the ' field. It Is noticed ,
however , that this talk Is confined entirely
to those members of the populist party who
-V were formerly republicans and that those
- who were democrats prior to 1892 are all
with the democratic crowd. This has led tc
the turning down of populists In some coun
ties and to the exclusive nominatlou ot pop
ulists with democratic antecedents In othei
countlei.
Tliit the struggle over the adoption ot a
name must como next year thsru Is now nol
the slightest doubt and In tha preparations
going forward the politicians ot the siKci
icpubllcan school are receiving no considera
tion. The democrats believe that those ol
the silver republicans who vote the fusion
ticket this year may be depended upon tc
vote the democratic ticket In the future
while the populists are equally certain thai
a maJcjirlfy.ofJUo called sjlvcV ripubllcans
were populists before they declared them
selves as republican bolters In 1300. Tin
story Is told on the authority of one of tin
fusion leaders of Falls City thnt In 1937 tU <
populists had to furnish t majority cC thi
votes In the silver republican primaries li
order to allow the latter patty to hold i
legal convention and get on the ticket ti
Richardson county , and the same fustoi
leader states that practically the same con
dltlon exists In every county where the sll
vcr republicans pretend to have an organlza
tton.
tton.In
In Thaycr county the "allied forces" an
having a family quarrel because the demo
urats In a recent convention selected for i
place on the county ticket a populist whi
Is not popular In bis own party , and thl
leads the People's Champion , the populls
organ of the county , to make a few remarks
as follows :
There Is always n set of fellows nt th
county scat who have axrs of their own t
grind and make It their business to ninnlpu
late conventions. Wo predict that ever
fuslonist In the court house , nnd ever ,
tine who hopes to get Into ofllce , will us
every endeavor to whip the populists Int
lino. When a man cets a "bee In his bon
net" he Is liable to be wllllne to sacrlflr
principle , and even party Itself , for the sak
of "harmony. " Most of the populists ar
farmers not "practical politicians. " Whe
they como to the county sent It Is nature
for them to consult these nolltlclans to fin
out 'what Is going on. This gives the schem
ers a chance to got In their work , and E
convcntlrns do not always express the ret
sentiments ot the people. But many of tli
populists left the old parties because the
resented ring rule. They do not propose t
submit themselves to It now. nnd tli
"court house gang" will have a good tire
Chipping tbcm Jnto line.

The continuance of such fine dry weather ,
ho finest nt this tlmo of the year In the

ile for n good deal of surface work being
one , and especially Is this so In the outly-
ng districts , where an unusual amount ot
aesesimcnt work Is being accomplished.
'he month now drawing to a close has been
no of Increased tonnage , as the shipments
or the month will show , and some hlch
grade ore has been produced , all helping to
well the production of the Little Kingdom
f Gllpln.
The East Notaway mine still continues to
: iold the attention of everybody In this
: ounty , and everybody Is wondering what
ho next ere will run. The lessees will
clean up a good stake , presumably about
$7,500 apiece for this month , with every
possibility of keeping up the record for sev
eral months , as there Is a good body of ore
n Bight. Less than six months ago the les
sees were offered $40,000 by one party and
$50,000 by another party for the property ,
but while some of them were willing to sell
for those sums , others held It , and fortu
nately for themselves that they did.
The section In which this property Is lo
cated Is ono of the best In the country and
ts record for producing a good grade of ores
s hard to beat. This section ts at the Junc-
, lon of the Russell and Lake districts and In
a radius of less than 200 feet square are lo
cated the Golden Wedge , Annie May , East
Notaway nnd Plttsburg Meeker , all of which

grade ore. The Golden Wedge , after lying
Idle for several months on account of the

DENVER , Colo. , Oct. 3 , At today's ses
sion of the court-martial trial ot Rev.
Joseph P. Mclntyro of the. battleship Oregon
for sensational charges against brother offi
cers of the navy the chaplain went on the
stand In his own defense. Ills testimony
Is Intended to establish a plea of Irresponsi
bility for his utterances on the occasion.
In a straightforward , simple , yet graphic
manner , ho told the story ot the Oregon'
wonderful trip from San Francisco around
Capo Horn ; of the terrible extremes of
heat and cold parsed through ; ot the nerv
ous strain which the constant dread of
meeting the enemy caused ; of the excite
ment of the blockade and the great battle
of July 3 , followed by a nervous collapse.
Ho told how , after ho reached Denver In
his weakened condition , he repeatedly re
fused to lecture , only consenting finally
because his efforts might be of benefit In
a financial way to the Young Men's Chris
tian association , himself declining to re
ceive a cent of the proceeds. He told how ,
with whirling brain , ho stood before the
audience and then of his horror next morn
ing when he read the published report of
what ho had said. He made no denial
of the reports , saying that ho could not
remember his words. He only know what
ho Intended tp say.
U is expected the defense will rest Its
case tomorrow. Physicians will be Intro
duced to show the effect upon Chaplain
Mclntyre of medicines taken Just prior to
the lecture.
AVItiicMReH MnUc limiKtinKC Mlltl.
The first witness called this mornIng -
Ing at the court-martial trial of
Rev. Joseph P. Mclntyro , chaplain
of the battleship Oregon , was George F. W.
Brlerly , musical director. He testified that
Chaplain .Mclntyre , In his lecture of August
8 , stated that Mr. Scott of the Union Iron
works had for years been trying to secure
a battleship contract , but on account of the
greater Influence of the eastern builders
with the government and the Idea that pre
vailed In the east that westerners could not
build battleships , he had been unsuccessful
until tbo awarding of the contract for the
' ) regon. He then praised the construction ,
jut witness heard nothing about "political
pulls" nor to the effect that eastern con
tractors cheated the government.
W. W. Hamilton , a wholesale Jeweler ,
gave testimony which practically corrobo
rated that of the preceding witness.
Jessie M. Copeland , cashier of the Dank
of Clear Creek county , Georgetown , tes
tified that Chaplain Mclntyre said the
Union Iron works had been unable to secure
battleship contracts because of the Influence
of the belief that tbo eastern shipbuilders
alone bad facilities for the construction of
such vessels. Mr. Copeland was on the
stand when recess was taken.
Witness Copeland denied that Chaplain
Mclntyre said that the Oregon was the
only battleship that was honestly made.
Ho said' the chaplain , after describing the
running fight and the surrender of the
Colon , spoke exultantly1 of the fact that
when the Oregon had entrapped the Span
ish ship the rest of the American squadron
was "pulled down" behind and the chaplain
exclaimed : t""And wlierfTWas ' "Fighting Bqb
< i
' "
Evans ?
Vf. II. 'Danner , local secrefary of the
Young Men's Christian association , testified
ttat on behalf ot the association he arranged
for the lecture of Chaplain Mclntyre. He
testified that when he asked the chaplain
to lecture the latter at first refused on
the ground that he was very 111. Chaplain
Mclntyro received no pay for his lecture.
Defendant Tell * III * Story.
Chaplain Mclntyre , the defendant , was
then put on the stand. He said that he was
In exceptionally fine physically condition
when he sailed from San Francisco on board
the Oregon , when It started on Its memora
ble voyage around Capo Horn. He told the
story of that trip. Ho said that while
passing through the tropical regions the
vessel was placed In a condition of readi
ness for battle. Hatches and gangways
were closed , preventing the circulation ol
fresh air. The temperature ranged from
95 to 107 degrees In his quarters. The Ice
machine failed to work satisfactory , so thai
the water drank was warm.
Passing Cape Horn the temperature wai
42 degrees below zero. On coming north the
high temperature was again experienced
These changes of temperature were disas
trous to his health. On t"he northward trip
after they had passed through the tropic , h (
war. attacked with a severe Illness , Includlnp
a terrible pain In the back ot his head and
In his opine. Thiee times ho woke In th (
night v.-lth his left1 arm helpless and seem
ingly paralyzed. He was then fearful thai
ho was threatened with Irisanlty.
After the battle of July 3 , when the stralr
of the excitement was over , he fell to th <
deck and had to bo carried to his quarters
where ho was under the care of a pbyslclai :
until he left the vessel and was seno to tin
naval hospital at New York. There a medi
cal survey pronounced him a sufferer frorr
nervous prostration , or , as the physlclar
privately stated , "nervous bankruptcy. "
Snltl Wlmt He Didn't Menu.
After briefly relating the story of his trlt
tt > Denver , ho told how , after repeated urg
ing , he consented to deliver the lecture ol
August 8 to aid the Young Men's Chrlitlai :
association.
The work of preparation for the lecture EC
shattered his nerves that on the affernoon ol
August 8 he was on the verge ot a nervous
collapse. To sustain him he took quinine
and brandy during the afternoon and aftci
reaching the church he took eighteen grain ;
of quinine and half to three-fourths of ar
once of brandy , being actuated by a fceltn ;
of falling strength. He was detained foi
nearly an hour after arriving at the churcli
before beginning the lecture and when lu
began his head was In a whirl. WItnEBf
testified that he had clear Ideas of what ht
Intended > .o say , but could not remcmbci
what he did actually say.
"I cannot find words to tell the horroi
with which I read the report of my lecnm
as It appeared In the Rocky Mountalr
News , " said Chaplain Mclntyre , In reply t <
a question by Attorney Doud. "Statementi
contained In that art'icle could not have beet
further from my thoughts. " The chaplali
said that , In reply to an Inquiry from thi
Navy department the day following the lee
I ture , he denim having made use of the ex
I ' prcsstons attributed to htm. Ho did this be
cause ho knew that In preparing for the lee
I turo no such thoughts were entertained.
Owing to the fact that the chaplain wa
much fatigued by his recital , his crois-ex
amlnal'Ion was postponed until 9:30 : Tues
day and court adjourned.
