Omaha, Neb., Aug. 18. Senator
John M. Thurston has mailed the fol
lowing open letter to Senator Stewart
of Nevada:
"On my return from a recent cam
paign tour I find your open letter of
August 1, which you so kindly gave to
the press of the country before await
ing its receipt by me.
"In your letter you refer to the
address delivered by me at the Chau
tauqua assembly at Madison, Wis., on
July 31. You must have known when
you penned your letter that I did not
make any charge against lion. Will
iam J. Bryan of any kind whatever;
that I did nothing except to read por
tions of an editorial published in the
greatest Democratic journal of the
West, the Chicago Chronicle, on the
11th of last July. The editorial as
read by me is as follows:
" 'There was a time when the own
ers of the big bonanzas of the far
West were glad to occupy, by pur
chase, seats in the United States sen
ate. Sharon, Stanford, Fair, Jones,
Stewart and others gratified their
fancy in this manner, until the nov
elty wore ofE, and then they deputized
attorneys and other employes to take
their places and vote for protective
tariffs and free silver. -
" 'Of late years, owing to the en
couragement that they have received
from the Republican party, which 'al
ways does something for silver' when
it passes a tariff bill, the proprietors
of the big bonanzas have found it
profitable to keep a large number of
orators, lecturers and other 'spokes
men on the road, preaching to the
people, already limping as a result of
bites by the free silver cur, the sover
eign remedy of applying the hair of
the dog to the wound.
" 'Among t he many who have been
thus employed and carried on the pay
rolls of the big bonanzas for a num
ber of years is William J. Bryan of
Nebraska. The paid agent and
spokesman for the free silver com
bine, he has not, since his retirement
from Congress, had any other visible
means of support.'
"1 did not, directly or indirectly,
even express an opinion as to the
truth or falsity of the charge thus
clearly, explicitly, unequivocally and
editorially made by a great Demo
cratic newspaper, reputable and re
sponsible. I did say, and I still say,
that the man posing as the advocate
of the downtrodden masses of his
countrymen, holding the crown of
thorns in one hand, and the bugaboo,
a cross of gold, in the other, owes it
as a duty to every man, woman and
child in this country to say whether
that charge, thus publicly and delib
erately made, is false or true.
"in a recent issue ol the Chicago
Post, another prominent, responsible
and reputable journal, I find the state
ment that Mr. Bryan's stated salary
from the silver mine owners, or the
silver league, was $6,000 per annum,
paid to him in monthly checks, which
went through the Lincoln bank."
Mr. Thurston quotes at length a
similar charge made by the Washing
ton correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ledger. Continuing he says:
"These are only a few of the direct
and positive charges of a similar kind
which have appeared from time to
time in the most reputable and re
sponsible newspapers of the United
States.
'I would be the last man in the
world to assail the character of Mr.
Bryan. I have not done so In any in
stance or by any word of mine. Mr.
Bryan is the candidate of a great
party. It is not just to the American
people that charges of this kind
should go unanswered. He is the man,
and the only man, who can make
definite and conclusive answer.
'I cannot refrain from expressing,
in this connection, my surprise at the
long continued and impenetrable al
ienee of yourself and fellow silver
mine owners with respect to the
charges so publicly ana distinctly
made in the editorial columns of the
Chicago Chronicle, which I have
copied above: and my still greater
surprise at the immediate nutter in
the flock by my simple discharge of
the same article, with appropriate
quotation marks, some weeks after its
first publication. .
MR. BRYAN'S PROGRAM.
Speeches In Buffalo, Brie, Cleveland, Bal
timore and a Trip Through' Missouri.
iBvrsoTOir, N. Y., Aug. 18. The
program of Mr. Bryan after his vaca
tion includes speeches in Buffalo,
Erie, Cleveland, Baltimore and St.
Louis. Present arrangements for Mr.
Bryan are that he will go from Cleve
land to Lincoln, where he will remain
a few days. Then he will make a trip
to St Louis and through Missouri and
the South.
The candidate's party spent yester
day very quietly. In the morning
they attended the Presbyterian
church in Irvington in company with
General Samuel Thomas and Mrs.
Thomas. It was not known that Mr.
and Mrs. Bryan would be present, so
that the congregation was of only ur
usual size.
McKlnley and Ha ana Confer. .
Cleveland, O. , Aug. 18. Major Mc-
JKinley and Chairman Banna met at
the latter's home in this city yesterday
and talked over the campaign. Mr.
Hanna said he was very much pleased
with the progress of affairs. More
than 15 million documents had been
mailed from the Chicago headquarters
ithin the past two weeks. "The
situation in the West is improving
dally," he remarked. "The work of
education is having a good effect."

GAIL HAMILTON DEAD.
STRICKEN BY PARALYSIS, SHE DID
NOT RECG7ER CONSCIOUSNESS.
LONG IN BAD HEALTH.
Was S Tears of Age aad Died la the

of lfaay Books Cousin of tha
Late James G. Blaine and
Ills Biographer Ber
Folltloal Writings.
Hamilton, Mass., Aug. Jo, Abigail
Dodge, better known as Gail Hamil
ton, the writer, who has been ill at
her borne here for some time, died
last night Miss Dodge sustained a
stroke of paralysis while sitting at
the breakfast table yesterday morn
ing. She became nnconsoious and
remained so until her death.
Miss Mary Abigail Dodge, writer,
biographer and controversialist,
widely known under the pen name
as Gail Hamilton, was a native of the
town in which she died, having been
born in 183a At the age of 10 yean
she went to Dr. Clark's private school
in Cambridge. She was graduated
from Ipswich academy at the age of
20. In 1851, she went to Harvatd at
assistant in the Hartford high school
She refused to take the customary ex
amination, but was given the position
without doing so. She was also in
structor in physical science in this
school for several years, and was sub
sequently governess In the family oi
Dr. Gamaliel Bailey of Washington,
D. C, the editor of the National Era,
to which paper' she became a con
tributor. In 1866-7, she was one of the editors
of Our Young Folks, a magazine for
children, published in Boston. From
1870 until a little over a year ago she
had lived most of the time with her
cousin, Mrs. James G. Blaine, in
Washington. In the course of this
daily contact with the Blaine family,
Miss Dodge was led into a very close
friendship with Mr. Blaine and at the
death, of the latter, she became his
literary exec tor, being in possession
of all hi papers aud documents of
value to her as his authorized biogra
pher. She was engaged, as frequently
as her health would permit, on Mr.
Blaine's biography from the time of
his death until her illness of last year
and it is thought ber untiring devo
tion to the work was instrumental in
bringing about that prostration.
Gail Hamilton was a frequent con
tributor to prominent magazines, and
her published works, written in a
witty and aggressive style, consist
largely of selections from her con
tributions.
Miss Dodge's one novel, "First Love
Is Best," had not the success which
attended some of her other works.
During recent years she engaged in
political writing, and many famous
review articles and political "inter
views" have been accredited to her
which have roused much warm dis
cussion and have exerted more or lest
influence upon national politics.
STEWART TO THURSTON.
Challenges the Kebraskan to Prove the
Bryan Charges.
Washington, Aug. 10. Senator W.
M. Stewart has sent the following let
ter in reply to that of Senator Thurs
ton:
"You assume that you are not as
sailing Mr. Bryan when you are quot
ing what irresponsible newspapers
Bay of him, and giving to such state'
ments all the credit vour hicrh official
position can confer. You belittle your
understanding when you say that It Is
the duty of Mr. Bryan to enter into
personal controversy with every hire
ling newspaper scribbler who Is em
ployed to slander or defame him. The
people understand the animus of par
tisan newspapers, and make proper
allowances for their assertions, but
when you clothe their slanders in your
official robes, it is a lame and coward
ly defense on your part to protect
yourself by skulking behind misera
ble newspaper scribblers.
"If you have no case against Mr.
Bryan, which you already virtually
admitted by citing irrelevant, lncom
netent hearsay to prove your charce.
your slanders will be harmless so far
as he is concerned, but can you afford
to be published to the world as a ped
dler of slanders which yon cannot
prove? If yon nave any friends who
supposed that you were both honest
and brave, they will be sorely disap
pointed if you fail to frankly avow
your error and retract your slanders,
or prove the truth of your charges
which I have quoted above."

Hunting the Wild Goat
The white goat, or Rocky Mountain
goat, as it is indiscriminately called, is
a species of big game rarely hunted by
sportsmen. This is not so much because
of the difficulty oi killing the animal, nor
because of its actual rarity. It is a stu
pid animal, easily shot when once found.
It is not, however, found in the usual
hunting grounds, as are bear, deer, elk,'
etc. It is remote from the common lo
calities, but where found is in goodly
numbers. It ranges very high up in the
mountains, above timber line usually,
among rocks and cliffs. This requires
great labor to get at it, but once there,
the hunter will get his game nine times
out of ten.
If yon care to read of a goat hunt
made in the Bitter Root range in Mon
tana, in the fall of 1895, send six cents
to Charles S. Fee, General passenger
agent, Northern Pacific railroad, St.
Paul, Minn., for Wonderland '96, which
recounts such a hunting expedition.
