meeting of the Irish National league In this
city last evening , said Balfour's Indecent
dnnce on Mnndeville's grave would be un
everlasting disgrace , and that his slanders
upon the Irish patriot would strengthen the
euuso for which he dial. The speaker said
lie trusted the ranks of the farmers would
remain unbroken. Their enemies , ho de
clared , must bo trealed by the people in such
n manner as to make them feel that they
wore despised , condemned and detested.
Fitzgerald , member of the commons for
South Longford , said Balfour gloalcd over the
destruction of his victims and only released
Dillon because the people would not permit
him to be murdered. Bnlfour belonged to
the ring of Welchers who had como to Ire-

they refused to bo robbed. Air. Smith , the

Incidents of the Closing Up of HOIISCN
of liie DrmlOInnde.
Itright lights gleamed ns usual from the
jnr-rooms Tuesday night nnd softer rays
itrug-gle l round the heavy curtains nnd
, hrough the half closed shutters in thohomes
of Ihe domi monde , but somehow to out ward
appearances the burnt district had an uunat-
urul and fnr-from homo look.
Bleak , empty houses , marked with dingy-
ooking rental notices , stood llko mouuments
of the past clojo to the sidewalks , or were
est in thu gloom that enshrouded the back
end of thu lots , and even the recognized at
taches of the lemahitng onus n-emed as
though they had mot With their Ilrst real
misfortune in life , ns they wandered aimless-
y from one saloon to another.
Karly in Ihe day yprcs : > * nnd hack men
weio doing ii rushing business , and anxious-
looking Chinamen followed their movements
and carefully watched before which house
they drew up. Occasionally one would fol
low the driver into the house , but the almond

siicfe s or dofeal when ho again made his
appeal mice
Messi uger bo.too . , were in demand , nnd
more than ono billet doux was rccu.veJ by
the moral young men of the town who would
have blushed lo the enrs and looked for
nnother situation if their employers had but n
glance nt its < ontcnts.
The destination of the hacks and wagons
was us Mined us their appearance and con-
lents Some only went to Howard , Jack
son , Thirteenth , Seventeenth and North Slx-
leenlh streets , but some of them were billed
us fur north as Cuining. They were patron-
bed by the hoarders wlio hud determined to
try their fortunes as roomers in quarters
w'here they would not for u moment be tolerated -
orated If their antecedents wei'e known.
Others , but very few of them , had eiders
for Ih'1 various depots , nnd LincolnBeatrice ,
Fremont , D.ivonpm-t and Sioux City were
nmong the places to whicti their
trunks were shipped. Still moro were en
gaged in the moving ot furniture
and intiilu numerous shoi t ti ips between the
proscribed district and that lying north of
Ciipitol avenue. In one , nnd In ono case only ,
did n landlady with a few of her boarders
leave town , and she was bound for Valen
tine. The others tire still in Iho city , still in
the business , and where they can do still
ir.oro harm , while the police will have still
moro trouble to keep track of them.
Ttio shades of evening brougnt out many
of the male persuasion , who had looked upon
thu burnt district as their own especial
stumping ground , but they scorned to have-
no life to work a sucker or anything olseand
spent their time in sponging what drinks
they could and listen ing to the tuneless notes
of pianos that sounded out strangely distinct
on the deserted streets. They seemed to
have tree entry to the houses , but in time
they gave place to I lie roundurs who were sup
posed to have money und to bo on a farewell
tour of the old-timo joints. These , however ,
wore closely scriitml/ed , and only "frauds"
nnd those who were on intimate terms with
the Inmates , were admitted , while Iho others
joined the crowds that surrounded the Salva
tion Army on its triumphal march , or sought
solace in beer.
Kloven o'clock brought out the theater
goers , and many who prefer darkness rather
than light , and for a time the streets were
their old-timo appearance , but by-and-by
they , too , were lost to sight , and the streets
were deserted , except when once in a while n
"chippie" would rush from a dive or a wine-
room , and with her escort catch a car going
to some more anstocralic spot.
Twelve o'clockand the saloons were closed
nnd the streets were crowded once more , but
this time with these who had drunk nil night
to drown their sorrow. Tholr stay on the
street was but short , however , for the rain
drops that seemed to fall in sympathy with
their feelings grew larger nnd heavier ,
until at length they were forced
to seek shelter in some more congenial spot.
Then ns the lights at the saloons turned low ,
those in houses gleamed moro brightly.
Shutters were thrown back und windows
opened to lut out the tobacco smoke and to
admit the fresh air. Ked curtains flared do-
tlRiitly for the last time , and strains of music
mingling with the clink of glasses and pop
ping of corks told that the last night was to
bo a jovial ono. The partial removal of furniture -
nituro nnd the absence of many of the "la
dies" from some of the houses , rendered nn
early closing necessary , but in the olhers ,
Iho revelry was kept up until the "wee sma'
hours. "
"When are you going to move ? " was asked
of n landlady of one of the latter.
"Oh , about the 20th , but Ml close up to
morrow , and keep quiet. I can't get into my
new house until then. Some of the girls will
stay with me" , but most of them have friends ,
und will go rooming , and when I get setlled
I'll send for them. "
"And nro you going to stuy ? " was next
asked of one of the aforesaid "girls. "
"Not much might as well be in Jail for
madam is awfully afraid of the police , and
would not let us out I know nor. "
" \ \ hat nro you going to do going nwayi"
"Oh , it's news you want. No , I'm ' not
going away that is , not far. I knew this
was coming and I made a mash last weoit.
He's got me a dandy room on Howard street
I think it is or St. Mary's ' avenue. Wo
wont up there In the street car. He's to be a
commercial traveler. "
"And Isn't he ? "
"What nro you giving usl No. Ho looks
like a good young man , und ho won't ' tell me
where his oftlcc is , but you but I'll lind out , "
nnd she made n break for the back parlor
where someone was ordering "another bottle
ol wine. "
"What do you think of this removal ! " was
next asked of a storekeeper in the neighbor
hood.
"Well , I don't know that it will do any
good , " ho said. "It may be. all right to clear
Douilus and Dodge streets , becutiso thcro Is
a certain amount of respectable tralllc on
them , but none of it over comes down to this
end of Capitol avenue , ami for one I think it
would have been better to have kept them
where the police could lind them rather than
to have them seittcrcd among all the re
spectable families in the city. "
Then the reporter struck for the ofllco ,
and on his way lound thai Iho exodus hud not
been without trouble. Ono landlady had Just
established herself on North Klevcnth street ,
when n jealous rival broke all her windows ,
nnd Kansas City LU threatened to "havo de
meat" of Cadie Thomas because Cadio would
not return a ring that Cadie had borrowed
before the order for removal was given.
That , a fight in a.saloon , and a man In the
trcmcns who persisted in looking for a po
liceman to rescue a phantom friend of his
from the clutches of equally phantom assail
ants , furnished the only excitement there
was. The burnt district had about quieted
down.

uest crowd northern Indiana has ever
scun , nml it was so unwieldy thiit two
speakers' sttimls had to bo erected and an
other meeting organized in the opera house.
Tlio town was profusely decorated with HUBS
and bunting , and in the lurtfc sciuaru sur
rounding the city hall speeches were de
livered by General King , CJener.il Murray ,
of Mns ichusctts ; General Hovey and
Colonel Uriilgolnnd and Mr. IMuinc , whose
introduction was the signal for tturh an out
burst of applause that ho could not speak for
several minutes. Mr lilulno addressed the
al Kuthontif1 as follows :
"Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens ; ' .Stop
thief is a pry not entirely eonllned to crimi
nal classes. A counterpart of the trick is
known to political strikers and is especially
noticeable In the present course of the demo
cratic party ivspeotint ; trusts. In I'restiliint
Cleveland's famous free trade message of
last December he warned the country of the
dangers ol trusts , and argued that they were
the oilspring and result of the protective
system established by the republican party.
At the same time , while assailing in the wide
sweep of his accusation almost every indus
trial interest in the north , the president was
particularly careful to bo silent respecting
the enormous tariff on sugar. Out ol
$ U12OJlOl)0 ) ) collected on importations of every
kind last year over Kfo,000tXU ) came from
sugar alone , which is equivalent to more
than one-fourth of the customs revenue for a
year. When Mr. Cleveland pennon his mes
sage he knew that one of the largest trusts
ever organized in the world the sugar trust
was in full operation , and that , if the pro
tective tariff was helpful to that trust , ho
was ( riving it all the aid , both ofllcial and
personal , in his power. If the words of his
message are true is ho himself not responsi
ble for levying these millions upon the pock
et bof all the consumers of this country for
an article of universal use among the fami
lies of the lumli [ Cheers and cries of
"That's so."J Nor was Mr. Cleveland's ' si
lence the only boon which the sugar trust re
ceived. When the Mills bdl was under con
sideration the president of the sugar trust
( Mr. Havcm yer ) , a well known active
democrat of New Vork , appeared before the
ways and moans committee , and. accord
ing to a statement made in open
senate by Mr. Allison of Iowa , obtained such
an arrangement of the duty as was equiva
lent to $ r.,0)0C03 ( ) in the pockets of the trust ,
f Sensation. ] If , therefore , the price of sugar
lias been unduly advanced to the consumer ,
the responsible parties , according to the
' doctrine the himself
president's , are president
self and the ways and means committee ,
which concocted the Mills bill in the Interest
of that trust. I think , moreover , that wher
ever you lind ono of the necessities of life
cornered and controlled by an association of
men for the purpose of reaping undue profit ,
you will find the supporters of Mr. Cleve
land at the head of the movement.
"Sugar may , indeed , be accounted a luxury ,
for wo can exist vvithout it , but salt is ono or
the primal necessities of life. We all know
that a salt trust exists in this country , and
tuo man who is now at the head of it , openly
and avowedly conducting its affairs , is ,
Wellington U. I3urt , the present democratic
candidate for governor of Michigan. Mr.
Burl is earnestly advocating the removal of
all duties from salt. Tills would s > eem to bo
another form of contradiction of tno presi
dent's theory that protection is the lirst cause
of all trusts , and it likewise fully
justifies the ground taken during this can
vass that trusts exist inoro freely in a free
trade country than in a protective country
mo'ro freely in England than in the United
States.
"I am fortunately able to give you a piece
of information that has a strong bearing , I
think , on Mr. Wellington , li. Burl's salt
trust. I hold in my hands a copy of the Lon
don Times of September 5 , from which I
learn that they are forming a salt trust in
England. The statement in the Times ,
quoted from two English papers locally in
terested , is this : 'The efforts to form u salt
trust hive succeeded beyond the most san
guine expectations. All the Cheshire salt
works have been provisionally acquired by
the London syndicate , represented by Messrs.
Fowler & Co. , solicitors of Westminster , and
negotiations are proceeding favorably to the
purchase of all less extensive works in
Worcestershire and Durham. The capital
required is lixcd at ; i,000 , < WO , and has ueen
subscribed in advance many times over. In
consequence of the monopoly thus cieated it
is expected that the price ot common salt
now sold at" shillings U pence a ton will rise
to 10 shillings. '
"Let mo ask now if any man in Indiana
believes that Mr. Wellington H. Hurt's salt
trust in the United States and this great salt
trust in England arc likely to prove rivals to
each other. Do you think they will lot down
prices and deprive each other of their re
spective profits , when the English trust
points out the way to increase the prlco of
salt four-fold at a single jump ! Do you
think that Wellington U. Burt is too modest
a man to say 'no' to a proposition to unite
the two trusts ? All the stockholders nro
united in an agreement to advance salt ! IOJ
per cent to the consumer in Great Britain
and the United Suites. [ Applause and
laughter. ] Thus you see the danger , appar
ently without a remedy , that will follow an
international trust organized on the basis of
free trade.
"Well , gentlemen , those are not the only
two democratic trusts. Wo have now spoken
of ono necessary luxury and ono absolute
necessity , but there is another trust wield
ing moro political influence perhaps than
both of them. I refer to the whisky
trust , which has absolutely changed the
politics and policy of the democratic party ,
for years after the war closed ono demand
of the democracy , especially in the south ,
was for the destruction of the internal reve
nue system , and lirst and last the outrageous
taxes on whisky and tobacco. They de
nounced them as war taxes , to which no free
people should submit in a time of peace.
Well , gentlemen , the free traders , both north
and south , soon saw that if the internal reve
nue system were abolished , the country
would necessarily rely for its revenue upon
customs , as it has done for moro than a gen
eration preceding the war , and that , if that
were the case , It would bo diHiouli , if not
impossible , to destroy the doctrine of pro
tection , and so , under Mr. Cleveland , they
have completely changed their ground and
are for keeping up the internal revenue sys
tem and breaking down the protection fea
tures of the tariff. The whisky trust has
thus risen , financially and politically , to
national importance. I state nothing of the
internal workings and its political manipula
tion from my own knowledge , but 1 know
democrats who declare that Mr. Ran
dall , the able , upright and experienced
speaker of the house of representatives , was
driven from the chair and Mr. John G. Car
lisle , of Kentucky , wus miulo hU successor ,
by a democratic caucus controlled 1 > y the
whisky trust and acting under the whip and
spur of its agents. Mr. Kandull's alleged
olTonso was that ho would not aid in sus
pending the tax laws and postponing the pay
ment of the tux on whisky in bond when it
seemed to the Interest of the tnut to secure
a post | > onemcnt. Mr , Handall did not believe
that the laws of the United States should bo
administered in such a way as to promote
huge speculation in whisky , and I wish some
inquisitive reporter would interview -Mr.
Itandull'fi political friend * on that subject ,
and the' ' ) ask , also , how much money the
whisky trust is contributing to the demo-
cratiu canvass this year , and at the same
time he might extend thu inquiry into the
amount contributed by the sugar trust and ,
also , by the salt trust , including its fellow
trust In business beyond the sea. fAp-
platisej.
'Nor have I exhausted tl(0 ( list of trusts In
which the democratic party has a largo inter
est. Unless every newspaper is at
fault the . . .deniodrutia prty has
received large contributions from
the stockholders Inhe Standard OH trust ut
every election vltal" the last live yearsand
are now relylnpUpon a gracious continuation
of that aid in the pending national crisis. So
notorious was this interposition that the
Ohio k'glshUure mcmoriali/cd the senate of
the United States to cause an Inquiry to bo
made into the alleged corruption in the elec
tion of the last democratic senator from that
state. 1 dn not tninprUiltP to say that there
was corruption , for. I know nothing person
ally of it , but 1 do syiy that the memorial of
the state legislature was presented h * , Sen
ator Sherman , , "fmil the rightful , leiral and
proper opportunity wus given to search
through and thfoiuih for tin. ' truth and for a
thorough examination into one of the largest
trusts in the whole world. Then was the
time for the democratic senators to make an
evamlnatton into trusts. One of the largest
of them was before tno senate , and before it
legitimately , and yet you know how precipi
tately the democratic senators lied from the
task You could not Ipad a
democratic noniitor up to that investigation
any more than you could Induce a breachy
colt to face a whistling locomotive. [ Laugh
ter and applause. ) Nor was rumor quiet as
to the inter-position of the national adminis
tration to suppress the Investigation. If
President Cleveland had boon as eager to
examine into great trusts as ho was to de
nounce them all in his message , his opportu
nity was thorp ; but , unless all rules be at
fault , the social blandishments of the admin
istration were lavished on republican sena
tors to secure enough of them to Join the
democrats to take oft" the curse of unanimous
democratic resistance to an investigation of
trusts. I Loud applause. )
"In addition to these trusts have named
comes the cotton seed oil trust , which is in
the hands of southern democrats , and its
power used to aid the democratic campaign.
Tlii-v do not apply their money In aid of the
southern democratic party , for the southern
democrat is too high toned to use money in
election. [ Laughter and applause.l They
have found a moro excellent way in the
south , and they reserve pecuniary contribu
tions wholly for thu northern Held , ( Laugh
ter and cheers. ]
"Fellow citizens , I have named five trusts
In which all the evil that can come from
trusts , and all the various shades of evils
that might come from trusts , arc conspicu
ously prominent. Finally , gentlemenon the
subject of trusts , let mo sa > that with all Mr.
Cleveland's denunciation of them , and all
the support which his party gives them , he
failed , and utterly1 failed , to strike a point
of objection to them. You will find that described -
scribed in hincago as clear as amber In the
letter of acceptance by Benjamin Harrison ,
our candidate for president , in which ho
neither withholds nor exagger
ates , nor sets down aught in malice ,
but vindicates with a peculiar power and pe
culiar directness the position which the re
publican party has uniformly held on the
whole subject. 1 commend you , as I close ,
to the reading of the two documents Mr.
Cleveland's ' free trade message and to Gen
eral Harrison's letter of acceptance. " ( Tre
mendous anil longcontinued cheering , during
which Mr. Blame passed from the platform. )
The distinguished statesman was escorted
from the grounds to the depot by the recep
tion committee and an immense number of
those who had attended the meeting. The
train bearing the party left Goshen for In
dianapolis at 5 o'clock.
The Indianapolis Demonstration.
iNnuvApoi.is , Oct. 10. There was a large
increase in the number of callers at General
Harrison's residence to-day , among them
fifty students of the dental institute. The
city is rapidly rilling with people from all
parts of the state to witness or participate In
to-morrow's republican demonstration. Two
Lincoln league clubs' arrived this afternoon.
If the weather is propitious the parade to
morrow bids fair to bo ono of the largest
demonstrations ever witnessed in this city.
Very few buildings , however , are decorated
for the occasion. The now Denison hotel is
handsomely trimmed within , and its exterior
is decked with i flags and bunting.
The largo balcony , from which Gen
eral Harrison , General Hovcy , Mr. Blaine
and General Altfer will review the
parade is profusely decorated with the
national colors. Admission to this balcony

"What is the matter with tUo punc

the luscious fruit for a postage stamp ,
and I'm glad the follow didn't bring mo

peach like a boy who watches his

cargo was harvested and sent
to market. At tUo time it reached the
city the produce dealers were tossing
peaches into the river. The market

The Iititnr | Men Meet.
A Inrge and representative body of liquor
merchants and saloonkeepers mot In ( Sor-
manla hall lust night for the purpose of out
lining a political uolicy and raising n special
fund to be used in accomplishing the defeat
of the prohibition movement In this state.
The meeting was called to order by F. 1' .
O'Hrine , nnd Thomas Dillon was made
chairman. In assuming his position , the
chairman said : " \Vc have a great light on our
hands , one of the greatest lights and hardest
contests that has ever faced the Hijuor men
of Nebraska.Vo have received pledges
from all the political parties , all of which
have been broken. Wo are now facing n pro
hibition movement in this state that is more
broad in its purports than many of us an
ticipate.Vo have among us men who have
uocn driven out of Iowa and out of Kans-is
by the prohibition law. They have been
compelled to foriiikc property , friends and
homo on account of the oppressive prohibi
tion. Wo must be careful in twlecting our
candidates , and our friends to represent us in
the state ofllccs , among whom that of gov
ernor and members of the legislature play a
conspicuous part.Vo want men In the leg
islature who will stand in defense of
our rights before the fiercest flro of the
enemy. We want men in the legislature to
advocate fairness and equality to all classes ,
and to stand up against the demands of
demagogues and political deserters We must
also consider the raising of funds to conduct
this campaign Wo will not need any vast
amount in Douglas county , but 1 beg to in
form you that near ! v every nomination made
in the rural districts by the national parties
is Hampered by n candidate with prohibition
tendencies. I merely make this assertion to
demonstrate to you that our Unlit is of no
little magnitude , and that our battle ground
is a largo one. "
At the conclusion of the chairman's re
marks , on motion , a committee of llvo was
appointed to draft a series of resolutions.
The following were appointed : Messrs. Ed
Hothery , F. I' . O'Brine , II. Anderson , A.
Grahme and G. Heller ,
The committee retired to an adjoining
room , nnd the assembly then proceeded to
an informal discussion. Chairman Dillon
stated that the measures to raise funds
were taken In order that doubtful districts
might be visited , and the money used In the
defeat of the prohibition , or submission
movement. He stated that it was the desire
of the anti-prohibition faction to gain a ma
jority of the legislature , and to carry such
plans into effect , an untiring crusade would
have to made.
William Sogclkc took the floor and stated
that ho had boon assured of support , in no
minor degree , by business men outside the
saloon element. He also stated that the
money thus promised by the latter clement ,
was to ba used outside of the Douglas coun
ty contest.
Frank Dellone announced to the assembly
that he had assurances that a strong finan
cial support , from the saloon clement outside
the state , would bo rendered , and that the
only way of obtaining this , wes to make an
unti-prohibition light outright.
The committee on resolutions then reported
as follows :
Wo , the liquor merchants nnd saloon
keepers of Omaha and Douglas county , do
condemn any class , or party , who , by law or
otherwise , wish to destroy the property of
these that are in the liquor business
It is the sense of this meeting that we will
fight all prohibition amendments , or other
wise named , and give our hearty support to
all who are pledged to vote ngainst submis
sion of the prohibition plunk , which is a det
riment to the interests and welfare of the
state of Nebraska.
Hesolved , That the liquor dealers and
saloonkeepers , nnd otherwise connected with
us , do vote and work for legislators that are
pledged to defeat prohibition.
That wo recommend a thorough organiza
tion through the state of Nebraska , so as to
put into effect these resolutions.
That delegates be appointed to confer with
liquor merchants and saloonkeepers , and all
other branches connected , to help us to carry
on the business for the welfare of the state
of Nebraska.
Therefore we heartily endorse these reso
lutions by word and action by subscribing to
n fund that shall be called the "Douglas
County Liquor Merchants and Saloonkeepers
Fund , " which shall bo started by those
present to-night.
The resolutions n drafted were adopted
without a dissenting vote.
F. 1' . O'Hrine took the stand. Ho said :
"Aro we to stand back as representative
business men with not u word to say in our
own defense J Will wo wait in the back
ground as fugitives , and bo driven from our
homes as such , as were our brethren in the
state of lowal Are we to remain quiet and
allow ourselves to bo styled demons , outlaws
and wretches , by a handful of parly fakirs
that have been driven out of the ranks of all
parties , on the ground of not even political
decency ? I tell you , gentlemen , that the
time has come for us to stand up and assert
our rights. Wo are now standing on the
brink of prohibition , and it is facing us , rest
ing upon a plank in the state republican
plalform. They mean prohibition , nnd
when this issue consummates next election
day , the eve will close upon a prohibition
ami anti-prohibition contest. It is my
earnest and most severe desire that the orb
of light will shlno the next morning on an
anti-prohibition victory. You know how
this can bo accomplished. It can only bo
done by the saloon element buckling on the
armor , and waging war to the bitter end "
C. S. Biggins stated that ho had been a
republican all his life , but the plank in the
platform pertaining to submission was { more
than ho could support , nnd in consequence ,
from this on , ho would advocate democracy
Jacob Her said that the .state of Nebraska
was strongly republican , nnd no bragginir
should bo done. Ho said it would bo all
right in some instances to support the repub
caii nominees , but only when they had pro
nounced anti-prohibition sentiments. Great
care , ho said , should bo taken in selecting
this clement in order that no mistake might
occur.
A gentleman at this juncture made a
motion to the effect that Frank Dolono ,
president of the State Liquor Dealers' Asso
ciation bo authori/.ed to appoint two commit
tees for Omaha and ono for South Omaha to
solicit contrioutions for n special fund ,
which was unanimously carried.
U was decided that nil moneys raised in
this way should be used in hiring speakers
and operating In the state outside of Douglas
county.
The following committees to solicit contri
butions to the above fund in Omaha nnd
South Omaha were appointed :
Farnnm street , north side Frank Dolono ,
W. Stow , 1 * . E. Her , Christian Hanson and
Martin Murphy.
Farnam street , south side Joseph Gar-
neuu , Al. McCord , Louis Hcimrod , George
Holler. Isaac Hascall and George Hoimrod.
South Omaha George Hush , Fred Bowley.
Judge Henther , Al. Geary , I'atnck Howloy
and 1'cter Young.
At this point , after a few Informal re
marks , the meeting adjourned subject to the
call of the president of the State Liquor
Dealers , association.

A call of the roll showed that the major portion
tion of the members of the committee were
present , and that all precincts were repre
sented ,
The chairman stated that at the last moot
ing of the committee , a resolution was passed
shutting out all proxies , nnd empowering the
representation present to cast the full dele
gated yo.e. This ho stated was only a tern-
porary measure and ho asked that the resolu
tion bo reconsidered
George O'Brien took the fbor in opposition
to the admission of proxies , and favored sup
porting the existing resolution as regards the
Admission of provies.
Mr Thompson amended by esUbllshtiiB
the resolution ns n criterion In the matter of
reguhituig all meetings in the future.

n motion to the effect that all c\oept mem
bers of jhn committed be excluded from the
room. The latter motion was carried , und
proxies withdrew from the a sembl.\ .
A misunderstanding existing between the
Ninth ward delegation concerning the loca
tion of polling places , was brought up. Mr
Bcnawa , who represented u special commit
tee appointed to confer with the central
committee in connection with the above , was
given H heiirniR. He stated that the polling
place us e tublislied was not in a central lo
cation , and that a large portion of the voters
being workingmen , wore unable to roach the
pollsWill.am
Will.am . Morrow stated that should an ad

would be made , and the result would be the
creation of two delegations every time the
issue came up in contest
A motion was made that no change bo
made , and that the polling place be estab

Farnam streets. This was amended by re
ferring the matter to the representatives on

Striker moved a second amendment to the
effect that thu primaries and convention be
held on the 12th and 18th lespectlvelv Ho
gave as his reason that it was of vital im
portance that the lenublicans make their
nominations before the democrats.

was seconded by Unitt , who stated
that the republicans did not
follow the actions of its opponents "honor"
belonged to the democracy , lie also -.tatcd .
that the issue in Douglas county concerning
ttie submission plunk in the state platform
must not be brought into the Douglas countv

Terrific blasts of sound bursting from the
brass instruments of the Swedish band , issu
ing fiom Grct-m * s hall last evening about a
oYlcn ) ; , proclaimed that the anti prohibition
meeting was on. C. A Jacobson , editor of
the Svensls.i Posten , called the meeting to
order , bnclly stated its object and was nUout
to intnidiii e Law \er Kitchie as the speaker
of the event ig , when Frank Walters inter
posed mid. luiilrossmg the audici.co in 1m

eeodmgs a "chsmo on the part of JaeoimiMi to
make the Scamlinalatis lUten t a dome

such speech , lie furthermore urged the nil
propriety of putting Gustavo Amiicun
in nomination nt a meeting ostensibly called
for the purpose ot forming an unti pruhibi
lion Swedish club.
When .laiobson insisted that Itiu-hi"
should proecoii , the meeting broke up in the
wildest con fusion , the Swede rcuulilii ans de
claring that the object of the meeting was
not to listen to a democrat ic speech but t )
form an unti prohibition club. Ritchie then
assured them thai he would make no reference
ence to politics , bill all of no avail. In lh
midst of thu .stampede the band placed a
deafening air , which in n great measure
ca'mcd ' the troubled spuits of the Swedes
Al the conclusion of the music Jucohson pro
posed that he be mudo peiniaiient olmlr

by Uitchio , but the thundei-h of
a unanimous negative , when the question
was put to thu hous-o , relegated Jucobson to
silence. A motion wus then made and mi
ned that C. J. WesterdaU be made chairman
nud Clmrles .Johnson was likewise appointed

The remainder of tin ? business was con
ducted in the Swedish language , and de

The Swedes are unanimous for Gustavo An
