THE NEBRASKA INDEPEDENT Feb. 4 if97 WERE THSUE BY FR&UD The Four Illegally Elected Republi can Representatives From , Douglas County. ALL HEED T)TJT LAST FRIDAY Republicans Sign a Minority port That Condemns Their Party Managers. Re in the HonseWdnesday. Io the afternoon session yesterday S. F. 173, a substitute for a bill taxing state banks on deposits to create a fund for security of depositors, was placed on the general file. 8. F. 14, Ransom's bill to reduce the number of commiaioners in Douglas coun ty from H?e to three and to reduce the salaries from f t.800 to l,500, was re committed for amendment. The Ransom resolution to direct Sen ator Thurston to work for bimetallism was the subject of a protracted and ear nest debate during the latter part of the afternoon. Murphy of Uage led the op position to it. He said its purpose was to humiliate the greatest man erer elected to the United States senate. It was an insult and an indignity. It was not offered with any serious, honest purpose, was full of dissimulation and false premises and conclusions. It sought to direct the vote of a United States sen ator on the money question, and that, too, after the people of the country had by nearly a million majority, rendered a verdict against the pernicious financial doctrine which the resolution seeks to defeud. He denied that Senator Thurs ton had ever favored the free and unlim ited coinage of silver at 18 to 1. The resolution was unfair, ingenious and a disreputable way of instructing a senator. Caldwell wanted it amended to include reciprocity and took occasion to criticise Senator Allen for having supported the Wilson bill. Ransom spoke for the resolutions, re citing against Senator Thurston many utterances and writings in favor of bi metallism. Talbot and Conaway spoke against the resolutions and denounced Ransom for having left the republican party. At the close of the debate the resolu tion was adopted by a strict party vote. In the House Thursday. Immediately after the reading of the journal, Pollard of Cass offered a reso lution directing the appointment of a committee of three to draft a bill to en courage the establishment of new beet sngar factories in Nebraska. Soderman moved to lay the resolution on the table. The ayes and nays were demanded, and the motion to table was carried by a vote of 54 to 42. When the secretary of the senate ap- neared and announced that the senate had passed the resolution directing Sen ator Thurston to work for the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver, the announcement was greeted with a round of applause. A memorial was read from the citizens of Omaha asking that no legislation be enacted effecting any radical changes in . the fire and police commission law of Omaha. It was referred to the whole house, as each member had received conv thereof. The committee on engrossed bills re ported back H. K. 5 as having been prop- erlv enirrotwed. Roddy of Otoe took occasion to in veigh loudly against the method of holding up a bill in the rooms oi the en- grousing committee. The committee on internal improve ments reported for passage H. R. 164, for drainage of swamp lauds, and the report was adopted. H. R. 114, by Eager, to repeal section 12 of the law relating to county agricul tural societies, was reported for indefi nite postponement, but the author had it recommitted. The committeeon railroads reported for indefinite postponement II. K. 40, by Snvder of Nemaha, to prevent railroad companies from giving parses. Snyder at once movea non-concur rence and that the bill be passed to the ireneral tile. This led to considerable discussion and Zimmerman of the com mittee said that other better biiis on the - subject were coming forward. Dm vem tnd navs were railed on Sny der's amendment to place the bill on general file. It was defeated by a vote of 79 to 15. Those voting for the mo tion were Jones of Nemaha, McGee, Sny der of Nemaha, Morrison, Wooster. Robertson, Severe, Sheldon, Shull, Sny der of Sherman, Soderman, Welch, Win- slow, Cronk and Hamilton. The report of the committee was thereupon adopted. The same committe reported for in deflnitepostponement II. R. 41, to re quire free transportation of state offi cials by the railroads. The report was adopted. The same committee reported for in definite postponement H. R. 46, to re duce the salaries of secretaries of the state board of transportation to $1,500 each. Shull moved that the report be non concurred in. The ensuing discussion brought out the fact that a sub commit tee had been appointed to ascertain whether it would be best to abolish the stnte board or give it more power. At the close of the discussion the bill was ordered to the general file by a vote of 45 to 35. The committee on fish and game re ported for passage H. R. 27, to prohibit for five years the killing or trapping of deer, antelope, prairie chickens, grouse, auail. plover, snipe or curlews. The committeeon claims reported for passage as amended H. R. 66, for the relief of J. M. McMillan, ex-treasurer of Thomas county; and H. R. 15, to reim burse Boyd county for the expense of the trial of the Barrett Scott murder case in the sum of $4,823. H. R. 146, to authorize municipal cor porations to compromise their indebted- ' ness, was passed to the general file. The committee on miscellaneous sub jects reported ,lor passage II. R. 81, to punish bicycle stealing; H. R. SK),.to pun ish chicken stealing; ti. R. 02, to amend the liquor law; H. R. 23, to amend the law relating to warehousemen. They were passed to the general file. The same committee reported n. u. 56 for indefinite postponement. This whs another bicycle theft bill. The committee on accounts ana ex penditures split on a claim of George II. Holly for work done at the stute bouse before and during the sesHion. It was foe 27 days at f 2 a day. The majority favored paying it, the minority being against it, The report of the minority was adopted. A claim of George Nolsou from the same committee was reported for allow ance and allowed. A resolution embodying a memorial from Douglas, anking relief fur that county from the inconveniences afforded by the inability of the insane Hospital here, to receive the Douglas county in sane, was read and the subject referred Burkett submitted a rexolution to dispense with the services of the proof reader and hold the printer responsible for the correctness of the bills precipi tated a discussion. On motion of Shel don it was referred to the committee on employes. Jones oi Uage ottered a resolution io make the proof reader responsible Iturket opposed this and it was tabled. after which the bouse took a recess untt 2 p. m. Among the new bills introduced was one br ilaller.aothorizing mutual fire in surance companies in cities and villages; by Muflly, to amend toe usury law; Dy Beal, to provide against pitfalls into which stock may fall; by Beal, to pro vide for the formation of new counties; by Real, to create a state board of agri culture; by Ransom, to encourage immi gration; by Canaday, to require rail roads to maintain union depots in cities and villages. The chair ruled that a bill may be in definitely postponed upon first reading. This was a disputed point Involved in disposing of one of Spencer's concurrent resolutions the previous day, upon which the chair withheld his ruling pend ing investigation. Ransom at once moved to indefinitely postpone Spencer's resolution commend ing Senator Allen for bis defense oi tne credit of Nebraska, and demanding that the state fulfill its beet sugar bounty obligation. Talbot s motion to make tne lesoiu- tion a special order for 2 p. m. tomor row was defeated on roll call by a vote of 14 to 17. Talbot then spoke in favor of the res olution and against the senate placing itself on record as in favor of repudia tion of contracts of the state and a re fusal to pay the state's honest debts. He read the statement of senator Alien in the United States senate, wherein he said that aid would not be withheld where necessary to encourage the devel opment of thesugar industry of Nebras ka. Senators Mutz and Beal spoke in op position to the resolution and Senator Conaway in favor of it. fendiug sena tor Ransom's closing argument against the resolution the senate adjourned until 10 a. m. tomorrow. In the Senate Thursday. In the senate Sykes presented a peti tion from Adams county for the payment of the beet sugar bounty accrued. The judiciary committee reported back S. F. 25 with the recommendation that it be indefinitely postponed. This bill relates to foreclosure of tax liens. Under the rule the report lays over one day. The same committee reported back for passage S. F. 17, to amend the time in which steps may be taken to review final orders of the district court. Also S. F. 11, defining duties of county attorneys. Also S. F. 14, to reduce the number and salary of commissioners in Douglas county. Also S. F. 14, Talbot's bill to facilitate completion of mortgage foreclosures, re quiring the mortgagor to give security for rent upon carrying foreclosure into the supreme court. Senator Graham offered a resolution directing the secretary of the senate to so make up the journal as to have as few pages printed as possible. On objection by Ransom it went over under the rule. On motion of Sykes the committee on soldiers home was excused Friday and Saturday to permit them to visit the insitutions. The object of the republicans was to hold the house to the regular order. Under the regular order the house must soon reach the order of third reading of bills. The first bill on the general file, which must then be necessarily taken up, was house roll 5, which provides for a recanvass of the vote tor the amendment to increase the number of supreme jus tices. The majority, owing to the ab sence of two of its members, whose votes are necessary to the passage of the bill, were not ready to act on this measure, and therefore proposed to go into com mittee ot tne wnoie to worn on otner measures. This the minority did not want them to do. Hence the objection of Paul Clark that to go into co.nmittee of the whole would be a suspension of the regular order and would require a two thirds vote. Of course Speaker Gaffin overruled the point, and the house went into commit tee of the whole with Gerdes in the chair. H. R. 29, by Phelps, to repeal the Russian thistle law, was reported back tor third reading. H..R. 89, by Soderman, to reduce the salary of the superintendent of the Geneva industrial school, was also re ported back for passage, So was H. R. 165, by VanHorn, regu lating drainage of swamp lands. So was H. R. 146, to authorize and enable municipal corporations to com promise their indebtedness. H. R. 15, to restore to Boyd county the expense of the Barrett Scott murder trial, was also recommended for passage. The following bills were recommitted to the committees: H. R. 46, to reduce salaries ot the sec retaries of the state board of transpor tation. II. R. 27, for the protection of game for five years. When the committee arose and re ported back its report was adopted and the house adjourned. ' ' In the House Friday. In the absence of Chaplain Mailley, who had been called home to David City Phelps moved to amend to include turkeys, geese or ducks and to make the maximum penalty two years.

Shull said that he had heard it stated that the republican party in the south since the war had stolen 1,500,000,000 chickens. He was not iu favor of the bill, as the penalty is too severe. After discussion Phelps withdrew the part of his amendment relating to the penalty. Clark of Kichardson moved to insert the word watermelon. It was declared out of order. The amendment including turkeys, ducks and geese wan adopted, and on motion of Paul Clark the bill was re ported back for passage. n. K. 26 by Kich.to authorize publica tion of notices of application for liquor licenses of any paper of general circula tion, the old war between the World- Herald and the Bee was taken up. It also authorizes the same power that grants a license to authorize a transfer of the same to another place or person. Clark of Lancaster opposed this, and pending the controversy the committee arose and the house took a recess until senator Hansom resumed his remarks on Senator Spencer's resolutions favor ing the payment of the sugar bounty in the senate this morniug. W bile he was still willing to endorse Senator Allen, be was not ready to extend Ins endorse ment to include the sugar bounty. He declared that the minority was not hon est in the matter and had no sincere e m- tention of endorsing Senator Allen ex- cept for the purpose of countenancing and endorsing the sugar bounty. At the close of the debate the resolu tion was indefinitely postponed by a vote of 24 to 8. Those voting in the affirmative were Beal, Canaday. Dearing, Dundas, Farrel, Feltz, Fritz, Gondring, Graham, Groth an, Heafy, Howell, Johnson and Lee, Miller, Muffly, Mutz, Osborn, Ransom, Ritchie, Scbaal, Syxes. Watson, Weller 24. Those voting nay were Caldwell, Con away, Evans, Haller, Murphy, Spencer, Steele and Talbot 8. ' Absent McGann. Several senators explained their rotes. In explaining his, Spencer set up an ex planation saying that he had no aim or desire by the resolution to commit the senate to any future policy or bias it on any propose measure. There is no hid den sting or concealed venom in its con struction. Its adoption simply means that it is the sense of a majority of the senate that Senator Allen is' a broad- minded, level-headed, public-spirited Ne braskan, who is willing to throw aside petty party prejudices for the good of the commonwealth he . represents. Spencer said he saw no reason why any democrat or populist should oppose the resolution, although there was a reason why Ransom should not, as he was neither democrat, republican or populist. He is a political what-itvit. r Senator Howell objected, saying that Spencer'tt explanation was lacking in due courtesy to Ransom, and asked that it be expunged. After an exchange of left-handed cour tesies between Ransom and Spencer the explanation was withdrawn. S. F. 25, relating to revenues, and S. F. 64, to cut down the salaries of sec retaries of the board of transportation were indefinitely postponed on reports of committees. In the house Frierday afternoon the bill by Clark of Lancaster to make chicken stealing a penal offense was indefinitely postponed. II. It. 5, for recounting the vote on the amendment was on motion of Hull of Harlan recommitted for the correc tion of an error in its engrossment, against strong republican protests, by a vote ot oi to a. Jenkins' motion to go at once into committee of the whole to correct the bill was lost by a vote of C2 to 32. The effort of the republicans to get this bill disposed of before the republican contestees from Douglas county could be unseated had failed, and the committee on elections at once submitted majority reports on the contest. The majority report set out the evi dence at length and the findings of the signers to the effect that the naturaliza tion of voters as done in Douglas coun ty in the late campaign was bribery, and that when all votes of voters thus bribed were thrown out on both sides, the contestants had received the largest number of legal votes and were there fore elected. The minority report, signed by Shel don and Eager, populists, and Rouse and Byram, republicans, held that it was admitted that a $30,000 corruption fund had been spent by the republican managers, a large portion of which re mains unaccounted for, and that the man charged with the management of the republican campaign, notably the chairman of the county committee, when on the witness stand, had com mitted downright perjury, as shown by their own evidence and the evidence of their associates, in trying to keep tne actual conduct irom the light of public scrutiny. This report denounced in unmeasured terms ' republican McNerney & Eager ATTORNEYS AT LAW, Room 8 Newman BIk. 1025 0 Street. Lincoln, Nebr- i 4 . C l.fi ' methods in Omaha, but concluded that the evidence did not positively show that the contestees had profited by it, nnd was not snfhcient to justify un seating them. This report was written by Sheldon. Consideration ci the report was made a special order for 10:30 a. m. today. In the House Saturday. In the bouse this morning a number of new bills were introduced and read prior to the arrival of the hour when the Douglas county contest was scheduled to come up as a special order. Hull of Harlan moved the adoption of the majority report on theconteet roses, and Felker moved as a substitute that the minority report be adopted. The aye aud nay vote showed 41 vot ing for the measure and 56 against it. Those voting aye were Alderman Ber nard, Blake, Burkett, Burman, Butler, Byram, Casebeer, Chittenden, Clark of Lancaster, Cox, Crow, Curtice, Eager, Eighmy, Endorf, Felker, Fouke, Gos horn, Henderson, Holbrook, Jenkins, Jones of Gage, McGee, McLeod, Mann, Mills, Nesbit, Pollard, Prince, Rich, Roddy,' Rouse, Sheldon, Snyder of ?herraan, Soderman, Sutton, Van lorn, Vaite, Wimberley, Wooster, Young 41.. Those voting nay were, Anken v, Bill ings, Bower, Campbell, Clark of Richard son, Cole, Cronk, Dobson, Eastman, Fer now, Gaylord, Gerdes, Givens, Grand staff, Grell, Grimes, Grosvenor, Hamil ton, Hile, Hill, Holland, Horner, Hull, Hyatt, Jones of Nemaha, Jones of Wayne, Kapp, Keister, Lemar, Liddell, Loomis, McCarthy, McCracken, Marshall, Moran, Morrison, Phelps,' Robertson, Severe, Shull, Smith of Douglas, Smith of Kichardson, Snyder of Johnson, bteb bius, Straub, Taylor, Uerling, Webb, Welch, Wheeler, Wiebe, Winslow, Wood ard, Wright, Zimmerman, Mr. Speaker 56. Not voting Mitchell, Schram. Snyder of Sherman moved that the votes of the contested members be not counted, but the motion was not enter tained. Immediately Clark of Lancaster asked that his vote be changed from aye to no. The other members from Lancaster did likewise. The reason for this move was because the minority did not wish to remain on record as having voted for a report that showed republican corrup tion unless their was something to gain by it. When the changes were all announced there were 11 ayes and 87 nays. Jenkins at once moved that the ma jority report be indefinitely postponed, ancLspoketo the motion some fifteen minutes, denouncing the proposition to unseat the republicans as part of a par tisan scheme to pass H. R. 5 to seat con tingent supreme justices elect. Loomis responded for the majority of the committee briefly and Clark of Lan caster followed him. He also denounced the movement as a partisan measure designed to enable the majority to carry Peaceful Slumber Unknown. DREADFUL DREAMS DRIVE SLEEP AWAY. For Eight Tears a Lady of Emporia, Kan sas, Suffers Unspeakable Agony She Relates Her Ex perience. From the Republican. Emporia, Kansas, Mrs. Jennie Carlow resides at 713 Merchant street, Emporia, Kansas, and is the wife of W. R. Carlow, proprietor of the Carlow Wagon and Blacksmith Works, who is so well known as the "Past Grand" and as one of the . most active members in Lodge 1 5, 1. 0. O. F., of Emporia. The distress of a condition of chronic sleeplessness is so terrible. Mrs. Car Idw's sufferings from it so well known, our readers, we feel sure, will welcome the good uews that she is now well, and will be glad to know how the cure was accomplished. Mrs. Carlow's statement is hereto ap pended in narrative form: "For many years I was a confirmed invalid, sufferingconstant pams through my breastand back, of the - most excru ciating type, rendering me absolutely helpless. I was unable to rise up or lie down without assistance, and was sub ject on the least exertion to flntterings of the heart and such shortness of breath, or dyspepsia, that I often thought 1 was dying. "Peaceful slumber was unknown to me. I would fall into a doze only to be awak ened by the most horrible dreams, of too frightful a character to describe, and in the morning instead of being refreshed and rested, I would be utterly exhausted. "I was attended at various times by every physician in the city, but none of them could do me any good, though I spent hundreds of dollars in my quest of health. About three months ago Mrs. Elizabeth Drake, whom you perhaps know, spoke to my hus band advising atrial of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, stating that they had permanently cured her after years of suffering from milk leg, and he at once procured a supply for me. "By the time 1 had taken two boxes according to directions, for the first time in two years, I was able to enjoy peaceful and restful sleep, and as I con tinued to take them my health improved, so that now while using the fifth box, I feel quite recovered and my health is en tiroly restored. 1 still take two pills every night just beiore retiring, and wake up every morning perfectly happy. "I advise every one whom I hear com plaining to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for although I recoguize the fact that medicine that will cure one, will not an other, still as most disease are due to a bad condition of the blood, Pink Pills in such cases will prove a certain cure. It is but natural that! should have the most unbounded faith in them. I am only too glad to bear testimony through your paper as to what they have done for me." The above is an exact report of Mrs. Carlow s statement. Charles Harrrw, (Signed) Reporter, Emporia, Kan Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo pie are now given to the pnblio as an un failing blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all forms of weakness arising from a watery condition of the blood or shattered nerves. The pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50 (they are never sold in bulk or by the 100), by addressing Dr. 'Williams' Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. X. house roll No. 5, and said that the evid ence showed that the election in Douglas county was simply a contest to see which could buy the most votes. Dobson of Fillmore declared the move ment to be one in the interest of purity of the ballot. His vehement and pointed remarks brought repeated rounds of cheers from the gallery and the lobby. Burman of Douglas, one of the con testants, charged that overtures had been made to him that if he would vote for the judicial amendment bill he would not be unseated and charged that Clark of Richardson had so informed him. He also said that he had not sought the office, that a friend had induced him to run by bp offer to pay. his assessment and that he had not spent any money to secure bis election. Clark of Richardson at once declared that the overtures came from Burman. The latter had stopped him at the door of the house and inquired about the con test. Clark bad replied that there was a rumor that unless tbey would agree to vote for H. R. No. 5 they would be un seated. Burman bad expressed a will ingness to vote for H. R. 5, end Clark suggested that the rumor said he had made a similar promise before aud failed to keep it, and that he would probably be unseated unless he was willing to make a written promise. Later Burman bad witten a note to him calling him out oi a caucus, and had offered at that time to vote himself for the measure, and that Alderman would also do so. Alderman was present at the time. Bur man wanted Clark to work for the deal, but the latter declined. Burman desired to know if the speaker could effect such a deal, and Clark referred him to Gaffin, who was standing near. Clark called on the speaker to make a statement. Speaker Gaffin said the only proposi tion be had heard of came from Bur man, which was that he and another man would vote for H. R. 5 if be was not unseated. Alderman said that the conversation ho had heard between Clark and Burman indicated that Clark had first proposed the deal, and when summoned from the caucus had said that it was too late for him to deliver the goods. Burkett spoke at considerable length. He said that Clark of Richardson bad for a long time labored earnestly to keep the Douglas county republicans in their seats, and his sudden change indi cated that he had been subjected to the party lash. He also said that Clark in timated to him that if seven or eight of the minority could be secured for H. R. 5 the republicans would not be unseated. After a few remarks by Sheldon, who characterized the majority report as a measure of retaliation, the house took a recess until 2 p. m. In the Senate Saturday. In the senate a petition from residents of Dundy county asking assistance in securing seed wheat was referred. A petition from Brownville for an ap propriation to make a state exhibit at the trans-Mississippi exposition was also referred. i Bills were introduced by Dearing, to provide for reorganization of the bank ing department; by Howell, to amend the law of attachment; by Conaway, to cede to the government certain lots in York. Beal moved a reconsideration of S. F. 14. He had yesterday decided a tie vote on this measure and desired to change his vote. Talbot wanted a call of the house and said that this was a movement to cut out an amendment of S. F. 14, which permitted Lancaster county to elect county commissioners at large as at present. He moved to table the motion, but the motion did not prevail, and the motion to reconsider was agreed to. Beal then moved to strike out the amending clause, but this was with drawn and the measure was made a special order for 2 p. m. Monday, After a brief session in committee of the whole, the senate adjourned until 2 p. m. Monday.
