PiATTSMOUTir , Keb. , Sept. 17. [ Special
Telegram to Tun Bui : . ] The democratic
nominee for governor , James E. Boyd , was in
town today nnd was an interested visitor to
the Cass county fair. In the morning ho held
a levee nt the Hiloy hotel , at which all the
democratic whcelbones attended and paid
their respects to their standard bearer. In
the afternoon Mr. Boyd was driven out to
the fair , but beyond a few introductions to
his party workers no ono was apprised of his
presence. Although strenuous efforts were
made to prevail upon him to make a speech ,
ho emphatically declined to jeopardise his
chances of election by opening his mouth ,
preferring to rely 111)011 ) tbo golden rule. Evi
dently this decision caused considerable dis
satisfaction among his followers , as thov all
left him to his own devices , and ho wondered
about almost alono. This evening , however ,
a. reception was tendered him nt the Illlcy
nnd a little more enthusiasm was ongondo'-ed ,
hut nothing could prevail upon the pros
pective governor to break his oyster-like silence -
lenco , nnd beyond handshakes nnd a few gen
ial words the visit of tlio democratic guber
natorial nominee was of less than ordinary
Interest.

nection with alleged maltreatment of a

twenty of whom having signed it , the pur
port of which Is to exonerate WUliford , The

represented ; that ho novcr was a reboi ; was
all through the war ; was born In Kentucky

Willartl' * Spccuh nt Norfolk.
Nonrouc , Nob. , Sept 17. [ Special Tele
Brain toTim UCE. ] Miss Frances E. Willari
spoke on the amendment to ono of the lurges
njcllouccs that has ever assembled , in Norfolk
the opera house being literally packed to suf
focatlooby the throng who camp to hear her
Stanton , Madison , Pierce , and other ndjoin
ing towns were well represented In the nudl
cnco. Miss Willurd spoke rapidly and clo
quently for an hour and a half.
After a few Introductory remarks Miss
" \VUlard began her address by tracing the
growth oC the anti-slavery sentimon
until through agitation that cause
bad triumphed and likening it to the
growthof tbo Aral total abatlnecco
and later prohibition sentiment. Tbo
dinner to the Pan-American congress and the
banquet to tbo president at the hub aud to
the North Carolina editors ut Durham , al
served without wlno , were cited as Instances
of the growth of the temperance sentiment.
With a pasilng compliment paid to the ab
stlaonca habits of the editorial fraternity o :
the tar heel state , the speaker referred to the
passage by tha senate of the anti-lottery bll
and said that while this law would not pro
hibit the lottery from running , U raUot
up a standard and sot n greal bel
tolling out the death Uuell of tb
Louisiana octopus. ThiPsnloon Is the homo
of gambling and the lottery lo a Pandora' *
box from which comSlh.'out only ovll nnd
nothing hut evil , nnd sln > , hoped some dny to
llinnk God us heartily amho did for the passage -
ago of the lottery hlllifofltlio enactment of a
law prohibiting the otfiitciico of the open sa
loon by congress.
Itofcrrlng to the oppWtlon ot Germans to
prohibition , the fact thiv many of that na
tionality came to America to escape bclug
drafted Into the Immense standing
iirmy of the cmplm < was dwelt upon
and the speaker asked If It
wns possible to gut along ! hero with nn army
of 2.,0)0 ) men anduo forced enlistments , If our
method of hnndllng Uk < A liquor trafHo might
not be a yankuo notion that could with prollt
bo transplanted to tht'fntherland ,
Thu vested rights of tile snlooni were com-
arcdwlth the vetted rights of sorrowim ?
vlvcs , who are brought by the trnftlo down
nto tbo depths of unutterable woo. The
iotlicr'3 heart was not to bo weighed In the
amo scale as the brewer's vat and the dU-
ller's tub. Only the blindness nnd
atulty of those who hnvo not studied
ho question led them to declare that prohibl-
Ion does not prohibit. Mulno has had pro-
ilbltlon for forty years and thcio has not
een a brewery or distillery within her bor
ers for thirty years. Rhode Island voted down
irohlbltlon , ft is said , so did Mulno after try-
ng it two years , but afterward voted It back
n the constitution by 53,000 majoilty and has
opt it thcro ever since.
The government was described ns a great
illl that ground out hut ono product , produc-
Ion for lire and prosperity. Nothing Impov-
rished the boys lifto the saloon. If
lie pigs and calvoi were In half
as much danger M the boys uro from the sn-
eon n special session of tholcglsl.ituro would
10 called to remedy the ovll. The greatest
noinles of the boys were the saloon , the
rambling room , and the den of Infamy , nnd
t was thu business of tlio government to pro-
ect that which was most valuable , nnd
brow the safeguards of law about the home ,
nd not tlio saloon. The Christian man who
vo uld vote for blgh.llconso was made to say
10 was not n Uosewator theorist , but
vas deciding it on practical busl-
less principles , nnd was told that
10 was Unking Mammon to the car of King
Vlcohol by n chain of gold nnd was placing
ilnisclf in the company of every highway *
nan and housebreaker , every gambler nnd
) lasphemer , every man who was disreputable
n Nebraska.
The speaker Illustrated personal liberty by
aying that when Hohmson Crusoo found the
ootprlnts In the sand his personal llbeity was
llvidcd by two , while the personal liberty of
'ach member of tlio audience was contlncd to
ho circumscribed limits of the chair on which
iosat , Ml have personal liberty to do just
as their please -without Infringing on the per-
onnlliberty of other ) .
In conclusion the speaker described the po-
itionof every voter against the amendment
.o . bo either ignorant of the effects of the sa-
eon , apathetic to lu effect. In complicity
vith the saloon , or directly opposed to it.
'Tobody ' could plead ignorance of the fuel that
ho drink- habit caused 50 per cent of tlio In
anity and 75 pcrcentof thocriuioin the land.
L'ho men who were apathetic or in complicity
vith the saloon talked about judicious regu-
ution. Past experience hnd taught her to bo-
levo the word 1uilli > lnuwas derived
romJudas. AIlssillamdeclared that If
'fobrnskn ' had the Australian system she had
10 doubt the nmondincut would carry. If
vo lose the amendment , every true woman's '
heart , every lover 9ft-liomo , will voice the
sentiment : "Wo haio ! not bojun to light
yet. nnd wo will not giro up the light until
irohlbltlon , state and national , shall rule the
epublic from sea to sort and from shore to
shore,1' "

was called , but the clerk llnally managed to
note n ( luoroni nntlMr. Ilunghcii of Wisconsin
proceeded to urguo the caso.
Mr. Choadto of Jndlnna opposed thojnnjorlty
resolution nnd declared that thq fourth dis
trict of Ylivlninwns reliably republican. It
liad boon carried by the democrats , not
bccnuso of the popularity of Cleveland or tlio
unpopularity of Harrison , but because of
Irreconcilable difUccrcncos In the republican
party. It bad boon n race division , with nil
Hint such a division could imply In the
south. Itwould bo suicidal for
the republican party to seat n man who led
tlio bolt apnlnst tlio republican candidate.
Ho said if there was llttlu law and less evi
dence to sustain the contest , tlicro was still
less republicanism. Ho was confident tbat
there never could bo n stronp and oflectlvo
republican party In the south until there
were enough -white men In It to make It
stronaund effective. Sonutor Mubono niul
the white men of Virginia had made the re
publican pnrty strong In that stnto mid se
cured the election of
six icpubllcaus to con-
Kress. The contestant , Hying In the
face of existing conditions , bad , raised
a race issue , and the result
bad been that Virginia had now
only t'vo republican representatives , IRHO-
ranco could not dominate and overrule Intelli
gence. The republican party in the south
could not bo built upon negro votes alone.
Ho ( Chcudlo ) could uot under his oath and
with bis knowledge of the case vote to seat
the contestant , and ho hoped for the good
name of the house and the good narau of the
great party to which lie belonged that there
could bo enough republican ; ) voting with him
to retain Vomfblo In ills sc.lt. Ho eulogized
ex-Senator Mali one , niul predicted that if bis

XEir JIOVIE T ( SIOVX CITY.
The Hack Is In mi's HIow at Compet
itors for North western Uusinoss.
Cmcino , Sapt. 17. [ Special Telegram to
Tun Dci : . | The Rode Island road lias
formed a now route to Slou * City which , to
competing roads , will prove a demoralising
factor in all business from northwestern
points. The route consists of the Hock
Island , Burlington , Cedar Rapids & Northern
ana sioux uuy K jNortaorn roaus. under
the mlloiigo tariff of the Iowa commission the
length of this route will extend the Sioux
City rates to a point within fifteen miles of
Sioux Falls. This point has always tnlan
rates S per cent higher than Sioux City , but
owing to the Goat's Horn route of the Koclc
Island , the rates , must bo practically the
same. Consequently the Illinois Central
road has given notice that on September 2J
It will apply Sioux City rates at Sioux
Falls. On being notified of this action
the Lake Superior lines Immediately took
stem to meet the reduced rates via St , Paul
and Duluth. fuul the consequence will bo a
reduction of 8 per cent and upwards from all
Dakota and we'd tern points.
At this morning's meeting of western lines
It was decided to malcograin r.itm from Sioux
City a cents higher than from Om.uw. The
formation of the now route of the Koclc Island
was uot known , it being considered th.it
Sioux City was not a competitive point of
either tho. Uoek Island or Alton , In pursu
ance of yesterday's ' resolution , there
fore , the order of the interstate
commerce commission for a 20-ccnt
rate from all Alissouil river points was to be
Ignored. The Hock Island will upset this ,
however , by making n 2J-ceut raw from
Sioux City , and of course the rate will bo
carried to Sioux Falls and points farther
west , thus tumbling rates in a manner which
It is feared by railroad men will lead to ex
tensive demoralization , The Koclc Island
will nUo reduce grain rates in Kansas nud
Nebraska and will apply the reduced wheat
rate on Hour Jand the reduced corn rate on
mill stuff , rye nnd barley. Competing lines
cliilin the Itock Island will break the western
lYelght association agreement by olther'actlon
and the result hcertain to bo u wrangle , ns
the competitors of the Hock Island have not
madottio reductions mentioned in thelrtarllTs
operative October 1 , and tbo Hock Island will
bo the only lo.id making them. The above
subjects liavo created more 111 feeling among
the freight men than has existed in six
months.

the snventh car from the caboose and
knocked It Into kindling wood. Th'j next
five cars were sma hcd up and thrown in
a promiscuous heap on the depot
platform , nnd almost knocking the llttlo
depot off Its platform. The last car hit the
caboose and was pitched on top of the engine
when the passenger train came to n dead
halt. The caboose was not removed from the
main track.
Fortunately no ono was killed or seriously
Injured.
The passengers wf ro considerably shaken
up , hut IIH none of the passenger cars left the
track a severe shock was tlio extent of tlio
daniiigo to the passengers , and some snllntcr-
ing nnd jamming is all the damage done the
passenger couches. The engine was badly
wrecked.
Engineer layman sustained a severe wrench
of the neck , and one of the bralccmcn who
Jumped received a bnitso on the leg ,
