Monday morning to hear Bourke Coch

aaya that the apsssk delivered was tbe
.finest ovation be -ever- ’jtsteaed- ta rnd
that the audience was enraptured by the
eloquence of the speaker and the facta
and argument he presented.
Since his late unpleasantness on the
political stump, with General Kelley,
T. V. Golden has been a pitiful sight to
gaze upon. A democrat who presents
himself to the popocrat party for salva
tion and then wanders back to his old
haunts sufficiently to defend the demo
cratic platform under written agreement
in joint debate, they say, is not the “stuff”
and the consequence was that some of
our “best" pops rejoiced at the down
fall of the self-made personification
now posing as an applicant for Judge
Kinkaid’s old shoes.
A republican rally was held in Pad
dock township last Saturday evening,
which was addressed by W. B. Scott, of
Atkinson, ond S. J. Weekea, of this city.
The meeting was a large and enthusi
astic one and both speakers done ample
justice to the subject. Mr. Scott, who
is a fluent speaker, U well posted upon
the questions at issue. He addressed
the audience for two hours and a half,
presenting convincing argument fdr
protection and sound money. Mr.
Weekes dosed the meeting with a thir
ty-minute speech that electrified the
audience .. Although that was the first
time John 4 ever addressed a political
gathering, he dearly showed that he
was well posted on the importent issues
now confronting the American people.
Arrangements will probably be made to
have Mr. Weekes speak in different parts
of the county during tbe campaign,
a do lit iweniy 01 toe citizens oi uneill
and the McKinley drum corps attended
the rally at A.tkineon last evening. They
report it one of the largest and most
enthusiastic political gatherings ever
held in the county. There was a torch
light procession over three blocks in
length and could have been doubled had
they a sufficient number of torches. A
novel feature of the procession was the
ladies’ McKinley club of Atkinson, with
a membership of fifty. The speakers of
the evening were Hon. Jack MacGoIl
and Hon. A. E. Cady. Mr. MacColl
made a brief address which was enthu
siastically received. Mr. Ca^y made the
principal addtess of the evening, and
he preached the good old republican
doctrine for about two'honrs. He de
livered one of the most logical and in
teresting addresses that has ever been
heard in the county and had no abuse to
apply to anyone. His speech was con
fined to facts which the people are anx
ious to hear. Republicans, democrats
and populists unite in pronouncing the
speech a masterly effort. The repub
licans of Atkinson are enthused as they
have never been before and are deserving
of much credit for the success of their
meetiog last evening.

They sty that by patience end pitsa
Terence wonders esa be accomplished,
and the troth of the adage haa seldom
had a more striking exemplification than
in my late experience with Mr. Me*
Cafferty. His stolid persistence in falsi
fying and his seemingly unquenchable
thirst for notoriety, intensified by those
most disgusting and offensive qualities
of egotism, vanity and conceit, fur
nished little hope that ho could be
brought to a realisation of his condition.
I did, indeed, Mr. McCafforty, think"
and say that I would leave -you as the
Savior left the Jaws—to your own per
versity, but 1 concluded to make at least
one more effort, and it is a souros of the
: most profound gratification to me that!
have done so.
Now, yon plead guilty to each and
•very charge I alleged against you,' vis:
I That you are a fibber, (I ebaa’t aay liar )
egotlatlcal, vain,' cbaeaHed. a stupid
dunoe, etc., and along vDk making yon
out all of these, you add gratuitously
that I brought you forth a "mangy
little mouse.” The laat part, Mr. Me, I
moat strenuously deny. I dare you to
show where I ever compared yon with
any of the brute creation—either on
earth, In the water or under the earth.
No, sir! I wouldn’t be guilty of such an
! offense against a dumb brute as to instl*
tute sueh a disparaging comparison.
I have no fault to find,'John, with the
method you take to illustrate your cecn
by referring to analogous cases Jn which
culprits were brought to Justice by
European triunes. You don’t say there
has been any injustice done to you. I
hays made my case by your own admli
stone, so you must now be prepared for
the sentence, which I shall proceed to
i pronounce. It le this: Your testimony1
| hereafter shall not be admitted, except
it be corroborated by the testimony ot
others whose veracity is unimpeached,
as it is a rule in the taking of evidence
that the testimony- of a witness who is
known to be wanting in truth and
veracity is liable to Impeachment. Also,
that, as the qualities of pomposity, van
ity, self-esteem, etc., proceed from a
weak or disordered intellect, your opin
ions or judgments shall not be accepted,
except under the most rigid scrutiny or
when reducible to legitimite logical In
ference.
I would be justified in making the
■entence n grout deal more aevoro, but I
merely wieh to give notice that Mr. Mc’e
statements are not deserving of credit,
and that hie mental produeta can be
nothing more than a mere mass of eon?
tradiction and chaos.. ,
John, I don’t think anyone even
hinted that yon hadn’t a right to talk,
petition, etc., but decorum eometimaa
may demand a little degression in the
exercise of a right. A hog has a perfect
righi to '‘petition’’ for ewill, but he be*
eomeea nuisance, and is treated as such,
when he exercises it to excess.
The diseased mind manifests itself,
John, when yon say Student is, like
yourself, seeking notoriety. People
don’t seek notoriety by concealing their
identity from those from whom they
seek praise. It stands you in band to
give a deaf ear to my request that yon
make an intelligent statement of your
case. Yon say yon "started out on a
mission of education.” If you have 1
will say: Please assign us the lesson.
The exclamation, "rats”, which I used
some time ago, and which you Just
thought of calling up, I will say, is often
used as an exclamation of contempt. I
was not aware at the time that yon were
so far beneath contempt. With a better
knowledge of your mental pbility, as I
now have, I would have need some term
of commisseration.
Your confusion of mind betrays itself
once more in your remark 4boi)t the
Chinese per capita of circulation,, Are
yon so stnpid, or is it "madness or folly
that clings to yoo,” or are yon' reduced
to the condition of a hopeless mental
wreck, to bring up the condition of
China, a country the people of which
hardly know what a gold coin is, as an
argument why the United States, or any
other country, should pass from the
gold to the silver standard? Your party
is, indeed, blessed with advocatim of its
cause. I was satisfied from the begin?
oing that ail that wa~£eceerary for the
destruction of your party was to giye its
members sufficient tope and they would
do the rest themselves. The silver
standard countries are, admittedly, the
very antithesis./ in progreee and civiliza
tion, of the gold standard country. 'but
the very thought* pf the barbarity end
degradation of iktt rat-devouring people
the eld causean American cltlsen to
shrink ttom the thought of debeeiag hie
monetary system, end thereby endanger?
iug himself and hie children being re*
ducddl to a similar condition.
I (lon’t 1st the entire blame t^yoinf
mental condition, for the bare-faced at
tempt to dittort the words in the part of
the financial plank of the republican
platform whloh you quote. You have
taken your lesson parrot-like from the
captain of forgers, “Captain Bryan," as
you call him. The most meagre intel
lect, |f honestly disposed, can under
stand what the words mean; els: that
the United Btetee asks other nations* not
for permlfsion to pass a free coinage law'
itself, hut to join in an endeavor to es
tablish a fatio at which silver could bo
more largely used as money without
subjecting the monetary system to the
fluctuations which it Is known front ex
perience would follow an attempt on
th? part ,of this country to undertake
the task alone, at any exoopt the com
mercial ratio. Free coinage, even at the
commercial ratio, by this country alone,
it Is very evident, would be attended ky
far greateir difficulties than would be en
countered if other nations would join in
tbs undertaking. 1 know of no other
remedy than to explain the mattcr to yon,
still holding thnf explanation Is unneces
sary to any but”e confused intellect; or
thv hdoaboed victim of a demagogue or
1*S inviuuon to join tM sto&inioy
club, John, you must remember, *u ex*
tended to you on condition that yon.
purge yourself of thn moral laproay with
which you complained of being afflicted
on account of yonr preeent associations.
I’M invitation still hold* good upon the
eane jpondition. Our BiMioB ie not to
bring the righteous, but the sinners, to
repentsnoe. "While the leaps still
burn, the vilest sinner may return,” or
eomething to that effect.
The biblical lesson, John, I am in
clined to think, was not seed scattered
upon an entirely "barren rock.” I
notice you have toned yourself down
considerably In yonr last epistle. Yon
must remember, however,, that,.the
Orest Tfnthfcrcoinmuxled his followers
to accept the teachings of the pharMne.
Hence, although your humble servant
may be a pharisee and a hypocrite, as
you intimate, he still may be competent
to dispense very ealutary doctrine. And
now, since I consider my scriptural les
son at least a partial success, I will pro
ceed to lay down for yonr benefit a short
lesson in the A B 0 of the "cornntus” or
"horned syllogism.” And before pro
ceeding I will say that it is not done for
the purpoN of a vain display of erudi*
tion, as I am fully aware of the meagre
quantity allotted to me. But when 1
find a puff ball of impudence and pom
posity trying to play the role of pedant
I like to let the wind and dust out of
him. . - J V.* V i ...... A
You fancy, John, and then amiln at
your elayernau, that you have pro
pounded a "dilemma,” anciently deslg
nated ‘‘the homed syllogism.” Refer
ence to the following teat will ahow
how far.you have succeeded:
In a delemmatic syllogism, first, in tbs
sumption, the consequent must pe a
legitimate inference from the Ante
cedent. Second. In. the consequent the
disjunction must be complete. Third.
In the sumption, the disjunct members
must be properly subiated.
With this short lesson to assist you,
John, I leave you to wrestle with your
"horned syllogism,” and when you get
through yon may be able to discover tint
it hasn’t shorn at all, in fact, that it Is a
mere "mulley.” John, you’re an egre
gious imposter, as far as logic and
philosophy are concerned.
Mr. McC again manifests his mania
for misquoting statements. He says
there is the sum of 1600,000,000 of silver
lying idle in the vaults of the United
States treasury. But, as may be seen
by the reports of the treasurer published
by the daily papers, the total amount of
available eaah, not silver alone, but
money of all kinds, is less than two and
one-half millions of dollars. Mr. McC
then continues his line of "argument,"
as he calls it, until he becomes so hope
lessly entangled in the maxes of statis
tics that he lands the per capita
circulation of the United States not only
at aero, but several millions of dollars
below. 'And this is the worthy that
started out on a campaign of education,
to instruct, forsooth, those whom he is
pleased to call "ignorant." A person in
such a mental condition is, indeed, en
titled to commiaaeration.
• Now, Mr. McCafterty, I will give you
the following pointers, some of which
I have already given you, but which you
do not seem to want to understand, and
which yon may digest while searching
for the horns of your "dilemma:”
The silver dollar of this country is to
day equal in every respect to the gold
dollar. So says the law, The silver
dollar under free aad unlimited coinage
could not rice above Ita bullion value.
So says the univeraal experience of every
nation upon the globe. The 1000,000,OOP
of silver which you mention aa lying
idle in the treasury cannot be used to
pay bonds, as the greater part of it la
held for the redemption of paper money
which is circulating In Its stead. Finally
there is hardly sufficient money in the
treasury available for current expenses,
for which we may thank your party to
fruitful of deficits.
You say there am no flfty-cent dollars.
What was the name of that piece yon
purchased from Mr. Lambertson tor
fifty oeataT Dollar, of course. The
silver dollar of this country, under un
limited coinage, would Inevitably bear
the same relation to gold as the Mexican
dollar referred to dose, vie: Its bullion
value, and aa the relation of silver-bo!*
lion to gold (which is our legal standard)
is far below par in purchasing power,
they would be dollars In name aad for
tho purpose of paying debts, that to all.
The information you furnish as to Mr.
Washington defeating Mr: Howe la a
"scrimmage" several years ago may be
news to you, but I don’t think it to to
anyone else able to read a newspaper.
You must have used it tor newe pur
poses, tor otherwise It to void of both
point aad application.
Now, it you will reveal Um promised,
lesson to oi, which Bust bo something
▼err occult m you aew to hm such
hesitancy about revealing It, ud If yon
will also tell us on which of the trinity
of the forgers’ platform yon stand, yon
will save yonr hntnble servant a whole
lot of time. But I doubt your doing
thla; for yon aeon), like every other
pedagogic Imposter, to depend upon
yonr pupila for yonr Information. I will
add: It it were necessary to organise a
rib-punching corps for the protection of
the country, the Bryan legions. It is
safe to say, would be found toeon
spicioualy "seldom"—esoept where tfccy
could Are off their mouths In safety. •
You should get down to bade prin
ciples—down to the cellar. If you please
—to the foundation—and not eOck
yourself away up In the garret wherf
there la nothing to be found bun tfhe
noxious vapor* wbleh areape wed'from
the foul mouths of your demagogic
teachers. You ahould make uae of the
faculties bestowed upon you by a kind
ProTldonoe for the purpose for which,
they were given you, and not play the
pupplt to every decsiptful knave who
prefers te appeal to the grosser passions,
rather than to the calm lodgment of hie
dupes. If you would observe these sim
ple admonitions you would hardly be
led into such absurdities as telling the
readers of the Bun that the per capita
circulation of the United Btateo is a
minus quantity. But I suppose you will
whine and cry as before, and call this
kindly advice a “savage attack.” Well,
be H so. I have performed my part.

Last Thursday afternoon General
Kelley, of commonweal army fame, ar
rived in the city for the purpose of de
livering an addresa upon the iseuee of
the day. General Kelley in an ardent
protectionist and as such is supporting
McKinley. - He believes the matter of
protection i« the paramount issue and
means more to the welfare and pros
perity of the American people than all
the alleged discrepancies of the pops
and democrats combined, the question
of free silver included. Mo sooner had
his advanoe agent posted the bills an
nouncing hia coming than the free silver
people ohallen|ad him to a joint debate.
The gentlemed who waa representing
Mr. Kelley SOcepted the challenge and
debate was field in the court house that
evening. The Bryan club selected T. ▼,
Golden to champion their cause. Mr.
Kelley Was to have 40 minutes to open,
Mr. Golden 00 minutes to reply, and
then Kelley 90 minutes to does. Mr.
Kdlipfc opening remarks were a dear
and able presentation of existing con
ditions, pure and simple, and free from
personal expression. When time war
called Golden strode to the altar wltb
blood in hia eye, his countenance be
decked with that familiar sang froic
appearance, and proceeded to outpoint
the General and swdlowhlm as an earth
quake if possible. He went wild in hh
argument. He used pins as his pointi
and there was no limit to the numbei
tacked in throughout his democrat!*
wail. He was so abusive from the start
that his former admirers did not cUln
for him the courtesy commonly dlotted
aspirants for Judgeship. But Kdley, it
his reply, disemboweled the whole dem
ocratic works. Where Golden bad pint
Kelley would pull them out and drive i
huge spike In to the hilt. Hie applaus*
waa so great that it waa somewhat diffi
cult for him to speak, hut if ever a mar
left a Joint debate with political blood
oozing from his flesh T. V. Golden
was that man.

Tneaday night wu a gala one ini the '
history of republicanism in O’Neill and '
Holt county, and If anyone thought that
the principle* of protection end sound
money were on the wane here they can
disabuse their minds of the idea after -
the eathnalastie meeting held here on
the above date. It was simply the
crowning event in the history of polit* '
ioal gatherings in this vicinity.
At 7:80 the members of the McKinley
and Hobart club of this city, assisted by
members of the Atkinson and Paddock
dubs, formed on the street in front of
the clnb headquarter*. The parade was
a very Imposing feature of the meeting.
The Jonly trouble was that the club only *
had 100 torches, while there were 000
voters who wanted to carry them. The
O’NelU cornet band and the McKinley
drum corps furnished some excellent
music tor the occasion, and enthusiasm
In the ranks wu very abundant.
The procession mucked on Fourth
and Douglu streets, and haying a !
ltberal supply of Roman candles had the> - t -
heavens in a blue of glory. When one
star would shoot higher than anotbor
some one would yell: "That was for
Mainer and then the cheers would be
deafening. Hundreds >f people stood
on the struts as the pyoceuion passed »
and cheered loudly.,* .

by Judge Klnknld end John Bkirving
and he reoeived a deafening ovetion by
the eadlenee. The republicen glee dob

oentrel oommlttee, then announced thet
ee Mr. XeeOoll had not yet arrived he
would probably come on the evening
train, end he then Introduced A. X,
Cady, the republican candidate for con- ■
Ur. Cody’s reputation as a,
had. preceded him and' when ..
presented by the chairmen was loudly
’ :
applauded. His address was a master
ful one and by far the ablest heard hr
this city for years, and his clear^dud- .
dation of the questions at issue was
highly appreciated by the audience. He
discussed the issues of tboday in a clear
business-like manner; couching his
thoughts in language that was plain and '
inlellgable to all. During the progress
of his address he was frequently inter*
rurted by the tremendous applause of
the assemblage.
A few moments before hedosedhis
address Jack MacColl, who had arrived
on the evening train, accompanied by
Chao. B. Casey, candidate for state
treasurer, entered the room and was es
corted to the front When the crowd
discovered who the elderly good-natured*
-in
right
gentleman was, they gave him a
hearty western welcome.
As the hoar was late neither of the
new arrivals spoke at length. Thev
both, however, made a few fitting re
marks and hoped to be afforded another ' f ~
opportunity of meeting the people of >
our city during the campaign.
