THE DEMOCRATS WERE OUICLKED.
Complete Report Of the Populist
Convention.
KertultH of n reat Convention at
Weeping Water Fusion Ticket -Placed
In the Field Democratic Doing, and
Free Sliver Deal.
The pleasant town of Weeping W&
toi was filled yesterday with ns motly a
crowdof politicians as ever got together
to mix medicino In the history of the
county. The greenbacker, the eixteeu
to wunner, tho Jackson democrat, the
free traders.the protection for revenue
follows, the referendum pops, demo
tions and a few others, all anxious to
do business in tho same tont.
Tho populist camp was pitched in
the opera house, 230 strong. The
hall was well filled with a good look
ing' crowd of representative citizens of
this county.
Milo Briggs, chairman of the county
central committee, started tho ball
rolling by calling the convention to
order.
.lames P. House of Greenwood pro
cinct was made chairman, and your
Undo 11. P. Allen of Wabash was
made secretary.
.A committee on credentials was ap
pointed with Briggs ns chairman, and
whilo the committee was out Dan W.
Postor, the tall sycamore of the Weep
ing Water, was called upon to make
a speech. Speech-making is one of
Uncle Foster's strongholds. He
told the crowd about being a
pioneer in tho cause of reform
and how glad ho was to see many of
his greenback co-laborers of eighteen
3'ears ago before him as members of
tho convention. lie thought all
other parties were allied with
the blood-sucking monopolies except
the pops, and he hoped, by fusion, to
deal a body blow at trusts aDd
combiner. Ho said it is talked that
democrats will swallow the pops, and
if they did they will have more brains
in their btomr.chs toan in .heir heads,
which statement created loud laughter
He told the boys they were on
ticklish ground, and if they made ; a
mistake, populism might bo swal
lowed up, but he had faith in the fu
ture. L. G. Todd, the ancient humorist
from Liberty preciuct, then made a
rousing speech and owned up that it
was the offices they were after, but
that free silver must bo the rallying
cry. fie did not waste any time in
explaining why. lie denounced re
publicans iD unstinted terms and fa
vored fusion. Ho claimed the pops
had educated Bryan and converted
hira to free silvor and in that way
they had 'saved tho life of the demo
cratic party, all of which the thick
skinned democrats should remember
and give them a square deal.
The committee on credentials then
reported, and it was found that no
credentials were in from Weeping
Water precinct. Center, Ml. Pleas
ant and Kight Milo Grove. Anyone
present from those precincts was al
lowed to cast tho vote.
Uncle D.ivid McCaig, who proved
to bo the chief pharmacist or medi-
cine mixer for the pops, was quickly
on his feet after the temporary or
ganization had been made permanent
and moved that a conference commit
tee of five be appointed to confer with
a like committee from the democrats
to divide the spoils. Tho motion was
seconded, but smooth sailing had not
been guaranteed.!
Jim Clark and Henry Claj', of Cass
county populism, arose and in meas
ure tones dho warned his fellow pops
not to lie too anxious to sell out, and
as an nmndmtnt he wanted a man
from every ward and precinct to be
put on the conference committee. He
did not tako any stock in fusion and
minced no words in tellinsr how worth-
Jess democratic pledgos were. Not
knowing how dead easy the democratic
managers were, ho feared tho pops
would not get their share of tho soup.
After a score or more had taken a
whirl at the question. McCaigs' mo
lion prevailed, and the committee as
printed in yesterday's N KWS. was ap
pointed. Then came another recess.
A committee on resolutions was ap
pointed which brought in and adopted
tho usual batch of platitudes.
ATter a time the conference com
mittee returned and reported they
bad b.igged tho offices of clerk, treas
urer and coroner. The silverites, the
judge, and the balance went demo
cratic. Then there was a scrimmage
over tho adoption of tho report. After
the adoption Jim Clark said. "That
ends it for me," and got up and walked
out of the convention. Comrade Ed
Cootey caught him around the neck
in the aisle and begged in vain to have
him reconsider, out the stalwart
lather of Cass county populism re
fused to be consoled by any fledgelings
and he stalked out of the hall. He
returned later on as n spectator.
In tho discussion over the confer
ence report, A. M. Russell said no
one could beat Spurlock, as ho would
run like a scared wolf. "Let the
democrats furnish, the scared wolf'"
then said lHlly Gilmorp, who was not
impressed with Ley da's candidacy.
The discussion at times was warm,
nnd again laughable.
Then catno nomineo for treasurer
r.nd George Sohrader wua selected on
the second ballot by a vote of 141 to
Harry Todd 67.
For clerk, M. S. Briggs received 152
on the second ballot, and was unani
mously nominated.
The delegates to state convention
and other business was transacted
and the convention adjourned.

taken so much of my time, cannot be
too severely condemned." Dr. Jekyl.
A Special Session of tbe Council.
The city council met in special ses
sion last evening to consider the water
company compromise matter. Al
ter extended discussion the ques
tion was laid over to the next regular
meeting of the council and no definite
action was taken. 2
It seems to be the opinion of tax
payers that a compromise ought to be
effected if it can be done on a fair
basis, as no one has much confidence
in the outcome of the city's suit now
pending. When the water company,
however, asks an extension of its
franchise at a hj-drant rental of $45
per month in the face of the fact that
other cities are getting the same ser
vice for from $25 to $35 per month, it
is asking too much. The city had
better pay tbe present rate charged a
few years longer till the end of
the present franchise, and them
make its own terms rather than agree
to pay such a high figure in order to
compromise.
This is of grave importance and the
business men- of this city, should ad
vice with the council and see to it
that a compromise is not agreed to
that will continue our high taxes.

SCENES ON THE SOUND.
An Interested Visitor Telia of the Scenery
Abont Seattle.
To the Editor of Thb News:
Seattle, Wash., July 21. nere
we are at Seattle, state of Washing
ton, after a most delightful trip from
Portland, Ore., distance of some 200
miles. The scenery along our route
was such as to command admiration
from any and every one. In short,
there is no place on this coast, where
scenery, varied, changeable, beautiful
and grand as it seems, is not such as
to command, renewed love for nature
The wild oeast 01 tne lorest. moun
tain and plains, finds its home here,
and who can say that the wild, un
tamed spirit within does not love the
home provided for it by nature? The
wild Indian, who for ages, has here
found his home, and amid forests,
upon plains, .-in mountain fastnesses,
and,
"Whose untutored mind.
Sees God in the clouds
And hc&rs Him in the wind."
Hut, Seattle! Nestling close to
Pugets Sound, and about half way
between the 47th and 48th parallels of
north latitude, about 400 miles north
of Plattsmouth; a city bunt upon
slopes, with motor and cable cars run
ning in nearly all directions. Going
up the slopes upon these cars, the idea
of a stairway is suggested. i ou
board the car at a street crossing,
then up an incline the distanco of a
block, then a stop at another street
crossing, then the ascend is repeated
and so on until the top of the hill is
reached, then away some two or three
miles to Lake Washington, when you
find a beautiful evening resort, for
the elite of Seattle, as well as others.
Here yon find , a building' erected on
piling at the edge of the water in
which building, musicales are eiven
very evening. Here too, you enjey a
delightful boat ride if you so prefer.
on the placid waters of tbe lake, and
this you may enjoy while drawing
aspiration from the dancing moon
beams on the rippling waves, and
fpom the strains of music from the
shore.
From Seattle, accompanied by
Grandpa and Judge Crites, we visited
the little village of O'Briens, some
miles from Seattle on tho line of
the Central Pacific Judge Crites'
principal object in this visit was to
see a landed estate in which Mrs.
Crites owns an interest.
Here we found, among other objects
of interest, a butter factory, where
tho milk from some seven hundred
cows was daily manufactured into tbe
ndispensable requisite of the house
keeper. - - ... . . .
On our return we took a drive for
ix miles through a pine, cedar and
fir forest. Many of the trees were
simply immense in diameter and in
height, and stood so thick that ingress
was almost impossible. It is said that
big, black, cinnamon and grizzly
bears abound in this particular forest.
This information naturally made a
'tenderfoot" a iittle more tender in
the region of the heart, particularly
so for the reason that our Winchester
was not at command. However, we
soon reacnea ivenion. wnere large
quantities of coal are mined from the
coal deposits around. Hero we soon
boardod a motor streot car for Seattle,
distant somo nine miles. This was a
most enjoyable ride around a large
portion of Lake Washington, and only
fifteen cents for fare. It is worth five
times as much for tho sake of viewing
the beautiful and interesting scenery
scattered around. But in a short time
we were again back at Seattle and
comfortably located in our quarters at
the notel oilier, one of the bait and
leading hotels of the city.
Seattle, is, pre-eminently, a business
city; it is raaratine as well as a rail
city; huge steamers and numerous
water craft are here seen plowing tho
waters of tho sound. Wo took atrip
on the fen v boat across the sound at
ths place, to West Seattle, and, by
investing five cents for street car fare.
wo took a round trip through this
place and re-crotsed the sound to
Seattle proper. Seattle claims up
wards of 60,l00 inhabitants, but, like
almost all western cities, so manv of
tbe inhabitants are concealed and
spirited, away when the census
enumerator comos around, that the
estimate population is conjectu al.
Tho gold fever is raging here; it is
epidemic; it is arousing energy in
hopeful, enthusiastic effort to reach
Klondykeand the valloy of the ukon.
Everywhere you can hear discussed
the marvelous gold field "Yukon"
and "Klondyke," are fast becoming'
classic names; they are upon every
one's tongue; in tbe hptels, in the
cafes, Un the stores, intho shops,
in fbe -offices, on nearly every
street corner groups of men
may be seen, and at every place, the
absorbing topic discussed is the
"Klondyke." The star performer in
the theater is enchored, when a hit
is made eulogistic of the "Klondyke. "
More than half the business houses
.wear a sort of holiday attire, with
long streamers upon .which are
painted in glowing letters, "special
supplies for. tho Klondyde and Yu
kon." Wo saw some of the supplies.
What pants and coals! What socks,
boots and shoes! Pants and coats
with varicagated colors.- somewhat
suggestive of the court dress of a
Pinte, Digger or Navajoe, and thick
enough, apparently," to' resist any
effort of old Boreas to embellish the
cuticle of the most ardent gold seekor.
And socks, ?bick, massive, of
pure, unadulterated wool, and
apparently absolutely impervious to
the Klondyke zephyrs! And the shoes
and boots! Strong, huero, durable and
well-calculated to accompany its trav
eling mate the Klondyke sock. How
strange this "gold craze." Less than
a year ago it was said to be dying out;
but, however that may be in a politi
cal sense, the (fact is that hero in
Seattle the "gold craze" is very much
alive. This "gold craze" is not con
fined to the gold-bugs. The 16 to 1
silverite up hero isequally crazy, and
if all reports concerning the moun
tains of gold that may be dug out of
the Yukon valley, be verified and the
gold brought to the United States and
then put into circulation, a new theory
of finance may thereupon arise, andra
now theory of. relative value of gold
and silver absorb the attention of the
student , of Gnance. But, however,
this new "gold craze" may affect in
dividuals the fact is, it is now bring
ingoattle in greater prominence than
ever before. The "gold craze" of '49
made San Francisco, and ever since
has held her place as the mistress of
the Pacific coast,bordering tho United
States, as a maratime city. Seattle,
about one thousand miles further
north and that distance nearer the
Klondyke, equally accessible by rail
or steamer -as San Francisco, and
with a harbor unexcelled for safety
and convenience, is now a strong com
petitor for prestige. With her, start
now of 60,000, who knows but tho gold
craze of 97 may bo to her as the gold
craze of '49 was to San Francisco, and
thus make her the queen of the
Pacific.
But enough I have already written
at greater length than I intended. We
shall leave in a few days for Chadron,
where I expectj to meet Mrs. Ramsey
and children. ' After visiting there
for some time, we shall return to
Plattsmouth, and here I will now say
that of all tho places I have visited
none have or can alienate my affections
for the land I loved so well in boy
hood, Nebraska. She has proven a
valuable, renumerative and inexhaus
ible Klondyke to many poor,penniless j
boys and girls,who today are, through
out the state, recalling in old settlers'
reunions the early days when, with
energy, industry and honest toil a
Yukon valley, so to speak, was
touched as with magic and now turned
into homes of. wealth, beauty, conven
ience and contentment.
Grandpa Crites, with his seventy-
seven years, is still with Judge Crites
and inysolf. He has stood the long
journey most tomarkably well, and is
enjoying himself as well as we
younger ones. When starting from
Plattsmouth, we all were somewhat
doubtful about his physical ability to
stand such a trip We are agreeably
disappointed. B. S. Ramsey.
