In due course of tlmo when he went out of the olllce there was an I unbalanced account between himself nnd the county of Douglas.

And one thing that he has not been nhle to explain why he changed tho ordinance thnt wns first drawn up hy the city attorney and submitted to the council for tho purchase of these works In nccordanco with tho recommendation of Frank E.

Webster tame forward, nnild wild cheering and a storm of enlhuMnstlc hand.'l.ipping When order wns restored Mr. Webster spoke for some time In n facetious vein, hla theme being the personnel of the speakers, Wi'lmli-r's Aililrri. "When I saw the printed program of this meeting," said he, with on air of suppresscl merriment. "I thought of that passage in scripture which says, 'Heboid how good nnd how pleasant It Is for brethren to dwell to gether in unity nnd pence.' When I spoke to Mr. Hosewater nbout It It wns agreed that he should speak In Hohcmlnn nnd that I should spcuk in the. Swedish language, so that neither would know what the other was talking nbout." ' This witticism won rounds of laughter and Mr. Webster proceeded to cull attention to the pretense of reform on the part of the op position to the republican ticket. He declared In emphntl.1 terms that he pad no confidence In so-called reform campaigns. He remem bered that In the campaign of a year ago last fall "there was u promise of reform nnd the result wps that they gave us (Jcorgo Shields to reform the morals of tho city of Omaha nml p'llt nn end to the operations of Tom Dcnnlson. Last fall they appealed to tho oters nnd declared thnt If the republicans would support their ticket they would drive Itosowntcr out of politics. As a result of that election we have what may bo called n democratic courthouse, hut Mr. Kosewnter Is still tunning his paper, with an occasional roust of myself, and It may be seen by the World-Herald that Tom Dennlson Is still running his policy game. "I don't hellevo the stories nbout Moores." said Mr. Welmtcr, "but If I believed every ono of them I would ndvlsc nil you repub licans to voto the entile republican ticket rather than put a democrat In olllce. Who vcr heard of a democrat reforming any thing?" Mr. Webster referred with unfeigned con tempt to the mongrel nature of the oppo Hltlon ticket, declaring that when ho voted for .i man ho wantod to know what that man represents. He pointed out vividly the great linportanco of carrying this election for the effect It will certainly have upon that of neat fall, lie urged republicans to re member that the members of their partv elsewhere will place great itrefs upon what the party does In Douglas county, and added linprrsslvely, referring to the candidates on tho present city ticket, "and I verily believe that their election or their defint betokens the rrwult next fall. He showed what ad vantages would accrue to tho democrats In that campaign from control of the city government, nnd demanded of republicans to know If they nre zenloilf for re-publican domination in this state nnd fur the. re election of President McKinley. He de manded to know whether or not they wnnted two populist scnatorn elected from this stnto next winter. If so, republicans should not let the opposition 'fool them with the Tom Dennlson Issue, or the Baloon lasuei, or any of the other Usuus that nre being pressed to the front In this campaign. The cue thing that the fuslonlsts nro striving for Is control of the city government, and will exert every advantage that It can be made to afford them, should they win, In the elec tion of a fusion legislative ticket to aid In the election of two aenatorH next winter. Nilllonal IxNiiex. The speaker dovoted cousldcrablo tlmo to discussing national issues und conditions. Ho pointed out the Improved industrial and business conditions under the republican ad ministration and the Importance of support ing tho policies of the president. Ho npoko at length nnd with great enthusiasm of the presidential policy In relation to tho Philip pines, dwelt with his wonted fondness upon tho question of expansion nnd demanded to know If tho policies of the administration did not oppoal to republicans for thejr votes. He nnld that he had discussed the question of tho retention of tho Philippines at tho re quest of members of the league. That ques tion can novor be settled until It is settled right, and it can never bo settled right ex cept by a republican president and n repub lican congress. To aid In that settlement Nebraska must send to Washington two re publican senators. "If you believe that the American Hag should not bo hauled down In tho Philip pines voto the republican ticket nnd let It be known to the world that the republicans of Omaha are united for the support of tho ad ministration of President McKinley." In explaining tho absence of llov. O. W. Ostrom Chairman Johnson called attention to the number of prominent Swedlsh-Amer-Icnns upon tho platform ns a refutation of tho statement that that gentleman would not be willing to appear among the supporters of Mayor Moores, and read the following letter: "To tho Chairman and Members of tho Swedish-American League: Gentlemen Owing to a severe nttack of bronchitis I urn necessarily ubsent from your meeting nnd unable to illl my place tonight.

"I, deny htm a monoooly of that policy." He showed how considerable) money had been expended during tho last two months In bettering tho equipment of the flro de partment and dcv:lnrcd thnt, although ham pered by a scarcity of runds, It would bo unnu:cfiary fop Mr. Poppleton. should he ho elected, to go out with the stuffed club ho had talked nbout to get money with which to equip tho department.

II. Stuun- In Mini. I The republicans of the Fifth nnd Sixth wards held a Joint meeting Saturday night . at the hull of the North Omaha Improvement club, corner of Ames avenue and Twenty ' fourth street, which wns one of the largest gatherings held in the northern part of the city during the campaign. Tho feature was an address on behalf of the North Omaha Improvement club by J. J. 1 Smith, former president of tho urgnnlzntlon. delivered nt the request of the club nt in j last rrgulnr meeting. Mr. Smith told of the ' orgnnlzatlon of tho club on n nonpartisan basis for the improvement of North Omaha 1 nnd of the work It has accomplished In the short time of Its organization. Ho said that while the club was not organized for politic il purposes the. members had tacitly resolved to stand by the men for city offices who hud stood by the club nnd had shown (hat they 1 had tho Interests of the city at hn.irt, und I that under this tnclt agreement every mem i her of the club, regardless of politics, had resolved to vote'for Frank E. Moores. Tho speaker then compared tho action of ( ino rivni cunuiunics: 'luten, said tie, l have had occasion, with others, to visit the mayor In tho interests of tho north side and necr hnvo wo fulled to meet a pleasant re- rentloll. nnd we hnvn nlu-nvu tnl ilmt w, I i went after.
