SCHMIDT & BRO; 921 0 St. Opposite Postofflce, Lincoln, Neb. They are In Line. The Swedish American Bimetallic league held a meeting at the Bryan head quarters in the Fitzgerald block last evening. The hall was well filled with Scandanavians and others who are in terested in the money question. 0. W. Palm opened the meeting and thanked the club for the honor of being made its president. The announcement that, the Swedish club now numbered sixty members, a large part of whom until recently were republicans, was greeted with great applause. Mr. Palm then spoke to his audience iu the Swed ishlanguage and from the applause his remarks brought forth he must have . reatly pleased his listeners. Mr. Morning was then introduced and gave one of the best, mostconclusive and logical arguments for independent bi metallism yet heard in the campaign. He began his talk by discussing the sim ple fundamental principles underlying the money question. He illustrated the law of supply and demand in such a way that a child could understand its force when applied to the medium of exchange. Ue said one of the great dangers in this campaign was ignorance, not ignorance in general but ignorance on the silver question. Mr. Harrison's speech was ,quoted from to show that he contradict ed himself in the same sentence. These errors must be pointed out and explained to the people. He pointed out the fact that when a man became converted to tree coinage of silver that he very seldom went back to the other position thecon vereions were always the other way. The speaker then discussed the system of bimetallism and showed conclusively that it did not necessarily mean the nae of both metals at one and the same time, but the right to the use of either one or the other. Bimetallism was com pared to two railroads. Said he: "If but one railroad line ran from her to Omaha that road could almost set its own price when the passenger came to buy his ticket, but if there was another road or a water course they could not control the passenger or freight rates. So with gold and silver: when silver is cheap they will use that; if on the other hand gold becomes cheap they will use that, and bimetallism doesn't necessarily mean that both metals must be used at one and the same time, any more than fnat both roads must be used at the same time." Speaking of overproduction he said, " that gold advocates never looked at the other side and learned that there might be an nnder production of dollars What this country needs is a bigger crop of dollars." Can the United States take all the silver that will come to us? "If we have a certain amount of water in a barrel and there is an inch stream running in and an inch stream running out the water in the barrel will not in crease or diminfsh." He clearly showed that tbe United States could take all the silver that could possibly come to us The reason Mexico could not was that ate was trying to empty the supply of an inch stream with a gimlet hole. One reason the Mexican dollar is not at its face value here is that we do not trade sufficiently with her. We have no use for her money. An English sovereign is good here because we can easily use it when we trade with England. Mr. Morning closed his speech by say ing that until the St. Louis convention he was a McKinley man and belonged to the McKinley club but when McKinley agreed to stand upon a got d platform he ceased to stand for McKinlev. "Be- going, being duly sworn on his oath, says the statement he makes concerning Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is just and true. . C. A. East, Justice of the Peace. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo ple are considered an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus dance, sci atica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of tbe heart, pale and sallow complexions, that tired feeling resulting r rom nervous prostration: all diseases fore that St. Louis convention" said he.reHultiiig irn n vitiated humors in the ''you might walk up and down 0 street from one end to the other and would not find a republican who would intimate that he favored the gold standard. He would be indignant if accused of such a thing yet after the convention was over they say, "we were in favor of a eold standard all the time." At the conclu sion of Mr. Morning's remarks the club adjourned until next Monday evening at which time the club will make arrange ments to participate in the Bryan -dem onstration the 8th.

After he had spoken or about five minutes the stage broke down and he was precipitated headlong striking one of his auditors to the earth in his descent.

This is to certify that my wife and son suffered from dropsy my wife afflicted for six years and my son for two years. During that time 1 resorted to evrfry remedy known to the medical profession in this section of the country. In my great anxiety and desire to alleviate their suffering I consulted two eminent doctors in New York, and after several months treatment I could discover no visible improvement, not saying any thing for their recovery. Nbilrt in JeDerson, Texas, some two years since I happened to mention the condition of my wife and son to a lead ing physician and druggist. He advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. After considerable persua sion I reluctantly consented to do so. At first I bought two packages and by the time one package had been taken I saw a marked change for the better. continued the use of them until twentv packages or boxes had been taken when to my surprise and great joy my wife and son had luiiy recovered and are to day in fine health. Too much cannot be Baid in com men dation of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Tbey are certainly a great boon to suffering humanity, aud 1 take great pleasure in offering this testimonial. In connection with this I will state that two of our leading physicians treated my wife and son. ' (Signed.) John Miller. State of Texas, . CorNTYOP Cass, f John Miller, the subscr ber to th fore UNSURPASSED IN HISTORY. The Tremendous Ovation Tendered Bry- n in Hanna's Home City, Cleveland, O., Sept 1. The weleome given W. J. Bryan last night by the peo ple of Cleveland was unprecedented in bis campaign tour from New York to his home in Nebraska. Beyond doubt it was the most magnificent and gratifying re ception ever accorded to the young can didate, exceeded in heartiness even the greeting of the city of Buffalo last Fri day, and that was au ovation of which any man'might well be proud. Last night's affair was more than au ovation; it was something beyond com parison in the series of enthusiastic out pouring that have marked the progress of Mr. Bryan toward his western home. It was considered remarkable from the fact that Cleveland is the residence of Mr. Marcus A. Hanna, and one of the places where his personal influences have presumably tended to strengthen the influence of Major McKinley. From the time he reached. Cleveland until he had said good night to his last audience, Mr. Bryan was given one con tinual round of emotional welcomin g. Arriving at the Lake Shore station he found packed closely as anything short of actual suffocation would allow, in and about the station building: thou sands of persous whose impulse seemed to be to cheer and shout with all the power in honor of the democratic candi date. All day long the interest of the vast crowds that thronged the Btreets had been whetted by political meetings on street corners, addressed by regularly assigned speakers, and the arrival of Bryan contingents from Canton and other places had augmented the already over-charged feelings of political inter ests. Fifteen sections composed one ex cursion that brought enthusiastice ail verites to see the heor, and it is claimed that 7,000 people came from Canton alone, and included in this was the Canton Bryan and Sewell club, nnm Ui'r 2,000 men. Many other Bryan and bvfell clubs came from towns in Ohio and Pennsylvania, nearly all bring ing bands of music. Ten thousand people bad gathered in and about the Lake Shore station to await the arrival of the nominee's train. and when it arrived they shouted with a vim that showed their earuestnest. Mr. Bryan later ia the eveninz deiiv ered three speeches at different places be fore an estimated total crowd of 20,000 DRIVEN TO DESPERAflON. Tbe Lincoln Republicans beg the School Ma'ams to Help Them That the republican leaders in Lancas ter county are driven to despair is proven by tbe following piteous appeal to the school ma'ams to please come and help thei : Headquarters Republican County Cknthal Committee. Lincoln. Neb.. Aug. 25, 1896. Dear Miss : Al low us, as tbe representatives of tbe re publican central committee of Lancaster county, to endeavor to enlist you in the corps of active workers for our party in this historical campaign which is to be one of education. The school teachers in our land are the real arbiters of tbe na tion's destiny. Furthermore, no single person exer cises more influence in their immediate neighborhood than the school teacher. While this is true, it is also true that school teachers are not too well paid. This arises from the fact that the money paid them is raised by taxation. The united democrat and populist parties are now engaged in a desperate effort to place this country on a silver basis, which would give our dollar the purchas ng power of 53 cents. Should this ef- ort prevail your wages will be worth about half what they are now, and in or der for you to receive your present wages t would be necessary to double the taxes on the school district. TV- .L!..l. 11 ! 19, . w vo you unuK mis couia oe doner 1 re fer to the effect on school teachers be cause you are familiar with the facts. The illustration may be taken from every wage earner in the land. Ordinarily the school teachers are re publican. They read history and know that for over a century the democratic states of the south made it a crime pun ishable by imprisonment in the peniten tiary for a school teacher .to teach a black man to read. They know that the republican states spend two dollars for educational pur poses where the democratic states spend one, even on a per capita basis. oui mis campaign involves moral as well as material disaster, not alone the dishonor of the nation, the paralysis of business, the depreciation of currency, lowering of wages, but also the embar rassment of and injury to the great work of colleges and churches. It would be a pestilential blight, destroying every thing. Will you not exprt your influ ence to tbe utmost toprevent it? Hj. n. Stephenson, th airman. W. L. Dawson, Secretary.

Unknown Mm Will Receive a Warm Re ception if Caught. Yesterday afternoon the seven year old daughter of Passenger Conductor A. tt.. Day of the Missouri Pacific had a very narrow escape from being brutally assaulted by an unknown man about twenty-two years of Bgo whose name is unknown. It seems that little Floydie Pay. ac companied by her couHin, J. Maurice liioinpsou, thirteen years of age, went to the capital building to play and climbed up into the dome. They were to have met some of their playmates there but wnen about half way up thev en countered the man aforementioned, who asked ttin little girl if she had ever been up in the dome before. She replied that she hadn't, whereupon the stranger suggested that she go up with him, tell ing the little Thompebn boy to go down stairs and look after his companions. This was agreed to, but a - moment later young Thompson heard the fittle Day girl scream and hastened back to her side. At the time the man held the girl in a firm embrace from which she was trying to extricate herself. When the villian beheld the boy he released his grasp and retreated down the stairway disappearing from view. The children ran to their home, 1134 C street, and soon after the matter was reported to the police who have a very good descrip tion of the man and will catch him if found in the city.
