Couldn't Stnml Out Against Demand to
Get Off the Ticket Will Stucffcr lio
' Forced to Report Nebraska Voters
Should Know Where Money 1 Kept.
The jj. o. p. is a thingof the past in
bica. it is the s. o. p. now. In
stead of being- "grand old "party , " it
is a pretty badly "scared old part } ' . "
. A lew days ago the World-Herald made
certain eaarfecs against II. L. Goold of
Ogalalla , at present , one of the regents
of the state university and candidate
for re-election on the republican ticket ,
On tne same clay the Uinaha Bee de-
uianued that the , republican state com
mittee be immediately called together
to investigate the charges , and if the
same were found to be true , that Mr.
Goolcl should resign. The State Jour-
nal and its evening edition , the News ,
promptly pronounced the. whohi thing
a canard. Last Sunday Mr. Goold was
all day in couiereuce wi.th the republi
can state committee and linally ten
dered hit , resignation as a carididate ,
which was then filed with the secre
tary of state.
The vital portions of the World-Uer-
aid article are as follows :
( \\orld-llerald , Oct. 11 , 1001. )
II. L. Goold of Ogalaila. at present a
regent of the state university and the
republican nominee for another six-
year term in the same ofiice , is one of
the nominees of a convention that
adopted the following plank in its
platform in support of which Mi' .
Goold solidly yoteu the Keith county
delegation :
' Tne republicans of Nebraska dis
claim for tue party any sympathy with
custodians of public moneys found
guilty of the betrayal of sacred trusts.
Without impugning- motives of the
governor in any eabj , we deprecate any
exercise of executive clemency tending
to create the .a.se impression that the
republican party is disposed to condone
the wilful embezzlement of public
funds under , any circumstances , and
we reque&t the immediate recall of the
parole of Joseph fc > . Hartley. "
'ihe fact taut Mr. Goold then had
and still has in his own name over $1-
000 of the money charged.against Hart
ley did not pre.'ent hfs joining in the
"holier-than-you" declaration and in
sisting on the return of Hartley to , the
penitentiary , nor did it prevent the re
publican convention nominating Mr.
Gooicl to run for om'ee on its hypocriti
cal platform , inveighing against those
"found guilty of the betrayal of sacred
trusts , " and declaring with a flourish
of trumpets against "the false impres
sion that the republican party is dis
posed to condone the willful embezzle
ment of public funds under any circum
stances. "
The following letter is self-explana
tory :
"Ogalalla , Neb. , Oct. 2,1901. To the
Editor of the World-Herald : Jt may
be of interest to the people of Nebras
ka that some of the missing funds of
this state are in the hands of II. L.
Goold , nominee on the republican tick
et for regent of the state university.
"Gould has admitted this to be a
fact to a couple of his closest advisers
here , who are trying to help him raise
money to make a payment and prevent
an exposure. It is very probable that.j
ihj republican state convention's ae- |
tion had something to dovitii it , for j j
Goold voted the Keith county clelega- !
tion as a unit to adopt the plank in the
piuttorin demanding that Hartley be
,
sent back to tne pen. ;
"Hartley let Gookl have this state
money many years ago , , and he has
never paid any of it back. Ifr seems
surprising that under the circumstances
he voted that way , but he told his
friends that he did not dare to oppose
the resolutions. He said there were ,
others in the convention 'in the same
shape as lie was. , *
"If that is the Vay the republican
party arrives at its convictions as to
principle , it will be well-for the people
to know it. I approved the action of
the convention at the time , but I don't
think as much of it now as 1 did.
"Yours for fair play , "
Hartley Says It la True. [ I
For the purpose of investigating tlie
truth of the statements contained in
this communication , a World-Herald
representative went to Lincoln on <
Wednesday to see Hartley at the peni
tentiary and inquire as to the facts. ' * *
' The jformer state treasurer was'
found at work in the penitentiary
gi'cenhouse. He was told that the ,
World-Hei'ald had received information
from Ogalalla that II. L. Goold had
some of the money which Hartley xvas
convicted of embezzling , and for which
he was now serving sentence ; that
Goold had joined in the demand that *
Hartley be returned to the penitenti
ary , and had been put forward as his
party's nominee for another term as re
gent.
"What is the truth about it ? " he was
asked.
Hartley made no response , but began
pacing up and clown the narrow aisle
between the banks of foliage. His
face was an exposition of contending
emotions.
"Did you. or did you not , let II. L.
Goold have state money to which he * !
was not entitled when you were state
treasurer ? " j j
Hartley stopped short , and said quiet- i
ly but firmly : I
' Well , 1 don't know as there is any
reason why I should lie toprotect a
man who voted his delegation inthe
convention to send me back to the pen
itentiary , when I have already served
a six-year sentence. I must admit the >
truth or lie about t. ' Yes , I did let
him have the money. ' '
, "How maeh did you let him have ? "
"I do not care to state. "
, "Was it as much as Sl,000 ? " ,
\ ! "Yes , it was. "
, tioold Took Stata Money. '
' ; It'was state money ? " , f
"Yes. It was paid with a , check
signed 'J. S. Hartley. ' n
"Did he pay it .iek ? '
"No ; he still has.it , and I hold his
pap'jivfor the full amount. " '
"Didhic solicit you to let him have
, this money without being entitled to
a penny ol it , and knowing that it in
volved a violation of the law "for you
to let him have ? "
"Certainly. "
"When did he get this money ? "
, "August IS , 181KJ. "
! "That was before Goold was elected
( regent of the university ? " '
j j "Yes , two years before. "
j
I "And during the years thereafter
during which you werj both in state
otlice he did not pay back a dollar of
itV'
| i ' . 'Not a penny. "
! i "That sum was in eluded in the short
age charged up against you ? ' '
"Yes. " .
"And that is the Goolcl nominated at
the recent convention , 'and the one
who voted the Keith county delega
tion in support of a demand that you be
returned here to serve out a sentence
I for embezzling that money ? ' '
j I "Yes , " replied Hartley grimly , as he
, turned to work again among the plants
j i and flowers.
j
' On the Same Day the Oiualia Ucc , SiiK
The grave eh rages that have just
J | been brought against one of thy iiotai-
: ! nees of that convention for university
J ! regent make it incumbent on the state
' "committee to take immediate action for
the iiifonrement of the p'arty's declar
ation. The charge is thatMr. . Goold
is an abettor of Joseph S. Hartley's em
bezzlement. The duty of the party is
plain. Chairman Lindsay . should at
once call the state committee together
f and summon Mr. Goolcl to refute the
charge or tender liis resignation as a
nominee. The committee has full au
thority to till vacancies that may oc
cur on the ticket and it is not too late
to. exercise it.
The duty of the state committeedoes
not stop there. The republican state
convention without dissent declaroil
unequivocally for periodic statements
by ail custodians of public funds 'in
forming the people" the amounts
and whereabouts of the public moneys
in their keeping.
Unless Treasurer Stuefer promptly
complies with the demand of the con
vention without evasion it will become
the duty of the state committee to call
on Governor .Savage to enforce it
Ihiough the authority vested in him
by sect'on 2 of article v of the state
constitution.
After an all ( Uijr conference with the
republican committee Sunday. Mr.
Goold left for home early Monday morn
ing , and the only statement regarding
his action in withdrawing from the
ticket that can be obtained is contained
in a letter addressed to Chairman
Lindsay , which was given to the press
that morning. The call issued by Mr.
Lindsay specifies that the meeting is
for the purpose of filling the vacancy
and for transacting such other busi
ness as may come before the commit
tee.
Following is Mr. Goold's letter ex
planation :
LINCOIAOct. . 14. To Hon. II. C.
Lindsay , Chairman Republican State
Central Committee : Dear Sir Certain
statements alleged to have been made
Mby ex-Stale Treasurer Hartley to the
effect that while state treasurer lie
loaned me 81,000 which * has ne-vcr been
paid have recently been published in
the World-Herald. On the 2Sth day ol
August r 'was honored by the republi
can state convention with a renomina-
tion for regent of the state university.
Desiring to relieve the committee and
my colleagues on the ticket and the
voters of the state from any embarrass
ment that may arise from the above-
mentioned statements , I have filed
withdrawal from the state ticket with
the secretary of state.
Statcmsiit of Facia.
In addition to this I wish to make a
.statement of the actual facts in the
case. Some time prior to August , 1S90 ,
J. S. Hartley sent 61,000 by mail to the
State Loan and Trust company , a bank
doing business at Ogalalla , and re-
.ccived a demand certigcate payable to
himself. The bank failed in August ,
1S % ' , and was duly placed in the hands
of a receiver. Mr. Hartley had ncvci
* .at an3 * time prior to the failure of the
bank presentedhis certificate for pa3-
or demanded payment in any
At the. time of the failure I v/as pres-
dent of as well as a stockholder in said
3
bank. Aly interest in the bank did
not at any time exceed two-fifths of the
capital stock. I never had a controll
ing interest in the bank. I had noth
ing to do with Air. Hartley personally.
His transactions were with the bank
exclusively.
When the bank failed all the resi
dent depositors without exception
united in a petition to the district
court for the appointment of mj'self as
receiver. I was so appointed and gave '
bond for S'J5,00'J. Soon after my ap
pointment I sent blanks to Air. Hart-
ley for proof of his claim against the.
bank. This proof Air. Hartley made
in his individual name before a notary
in Lincoln and on receipt of the piool
I sent to Air. Hartlej' the usual receiv
er's certificate. .
