IIo showed the fallacy of the statement that the liquor trufllo Is responsible for 75 per cent of all crimp , the truth being tlmt only ft percent of the crime is In any way tracea ble to the liquor trnfllc. Ho also proved that moro crlmo was committed in prohibition states and that tbo percentage of insanity Is greater in Kansas , Maine and Iowa than in Nebraska1 that the school teachers wcio better paid and the schoolhouscs butter and the school system better in high license Ne braska than in prohibition Maine- ; that the financial condition of the pcoplo of Nebraska in belter than In prohibition states ; that the bonded Indebtedness is loss than In Kansas or Iowa ; that moro moitgages are past duo and unpaid in those states than in Nebraska , and , lastly , tlmt prohibition docs not prohibit , but that the open saloons now In I mi bauds of responsible persons under bonds glvo wav to the dive and low groggery.

[ Special Telegram to THE line. ] Within three years the Atchlsou roads will hnvo built 2,000 miles of new road. Judge Springer is authority for the state ment that within three years the track be tween Mojave and San Francisco will bo completed. With the building of this road and the unllnlshcd portion of the Atlantic & Pacific between Scpynha and AlbucpjorQiio will bo sprung ono of the lareest legal sensa tions of modern times. It Is nothing less than the claim on the pait of the Atchlson to over twenty million acres of land , being alternate sections for ten miles in states and twenty miles in territories on each sldo of the track for the whole distance. A largo part of this Is In what is known as the richest part of California. This was confcried In IbCi ) by the government. The terms were that the Atlantic & Pacific should build the road and that the government would extinguish the Indian title , survey and open the land to set tlement lu advance or at the same tlmo with the construction. This the government aid not do except in part , neither did the Atlantic & Pacific build all the road , but It built several hundred miles through territory not oven yet surveyed and o\cr which the Indian title still stands. By act of congress July 0 , I&80 , the grunt was repealed , Uho Atchlson has procured opin ions from some of the leading attorneys in the country nnd they all agree that the re pealing act \vas unconstitutional. The road failed to carry out Its contract , but the gov- erninent had previously failed to carry out Its share. As a consequence the burden , ac cording to legal talent , falls on the govern ment. Judge Springer believes the land could still bo claimed , ami there is no question that the Atcblson will make the attempt. President Manuel has Just signed an order for 10,000 tons of sixty pound steel rails to be delivered nt Al buquerque. Mr. Manvcl says the rails are for repairs ou the Atlantic & Pacific , but west ern dispatches claim th.it vast quantities of tics nnd steel are already being shipped west from Albuquerque for the now line between Mojave and S.m Francisco. Today it was also reported that the Atchisou was building from Springfield , or rather , Chadwlck , Mo. , to Memphis In order to take its Kansas und Nebraska grain over the southern route , which has of late been carrying more western grain than goes via Chicago and St. Louis combined. The completion of the gap between El Paso anil Sun Angelo wi'l ' take place with the com pletion of tno San Kranclsco line and give the Atchison a line of 150 miles shorter than the Southern Pacific to Galveston , a city which all Atchison officials agree will become a far more important point than New Orleans , Lacks the Grain of Truth. Ciuctao , Oct. 21. ( Special Telegram to THE BEE. ] A local paper says : The air is filled with rumors at present of tlio proposed Burlington extensions toward the Pacific coast. Ono of the most Interesting of these comes from Scattlo to the effect that the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy road has Joined hands with the Hunt system of railroads for tbo purpose of forminga great trans continental line from the sea coast. The report Is that contracts have already beea lot for the construction of a ro.icl from Cheyenne to Butte , a distance of 800 miles. These contracts are nominally wltti tbo Hunt system and involve the ex penditure of } 10,000,000 , and it is alleged that bonds to this amount have been placed iu London , ICngland. The floating of these bonds was opposed by Union Pacific and Northern Pacific Interests nnd the attempt to sell them was likely to provo unsuccessful until the Chicago , llurlington & Quincy road came to the rescue and by Us aid pur chasers were found for them. After this line to Butte is completed the further extension - tension of the route would bo a simple mat ter. Unfortunately for tlio Seattle people the story seems to lack one on important ele ment , a grain of truth. When this report was brought to the attention of Vice Presi dent Pcasloy of the Burlington ho laughed heartily nnd said there was not a word of truth in the story. "Seattle , " ho said , "Is simply bcslcto her self iu getting up such stories as that , Wo are not contemplating extensions in any direction nt present. The fact is wo have as much ns wo can do to attend to what wo have. now. We have given the Hunt roads no assistance what ever In floating their bonds. " Prom other sources it was learned that thcso bonds have not yet found pur chasers. An Advance in Itntcs. Citicioo , Oct. 21.

" Speaker Heed also talked on the election question , declaring that popular government is the only safe govern ment , nnd that there is no peril to the public in a free vote and a fair count , whatever daniago It may have done to the democratic party.

The shopkeepers can't take your money from you. An effort is being in'ido to malto you buy today instead of tomorrow. You will notice that prices , , have not gone up , but are always going up.

Governor Hill was greeted on his arrival hero today oy a largo throng. Tonighc after a largo torchlight procession of democratic clubs ho spoke to a crowd ot thrco thousand persons at the rlnlc. Many were unable to obtain admission. Governor Hill said in uart : "An Important political campaign Is that upon which ttio country has entered. The question pre sented to our voters Is not whether the next house of representatives bo republican or denioeratie , but whether the nature of our federal government Is to bo radically modified and the integrity of our institutions successfully threatened. A great issue is the record of the republican party In Its brief control of congress. No party has moro recklessly defied precedents , more flagrantly disregarded pilnclples , moro boast fully overturned traditions , moro seriously invaded private rights , more arbitrarily en croached upon prerogatives of states or more tyranically used the power of a partisan ma jority. The animating motive of its nets seems to have been only tho' perpetuation of Its own power. The party has Increased its majority in the house of representatives by arbitrarily ejecting democrats fioin scats ; stolen the representation of ono state in the senate ; admitted 'n the union states whcfeo only claim to admission is that they will swell republican majorities : denied repre sentation to democratic territories much better qualified for statehood in point of population and resources ; ignored the rights of the minority by tyrannical methods and the ruling of the speaker of the house ; squandered the treasury surplus by extravagant appropriations to conciliate particular Interestse'-ennctcd ; a tariff bill which will supply corrunttou funds for elections ; conducted u c everywhere as worthless and manipulated for counting republican populations up and democratic : populations down , ami has threatened the enactment of a force bill , which will put an end testate state authority in the certification of federal elections nncl iwike congress not the representative body of the people , but the creature of whatever men the federal olllelnls may choose to count In. This is the record that confronts the people. Long practice in hypocrisy has enabled the republican leaders to disguise partisanship In panloticlanguage , but their appeal after all is ono to cupidity nnd selfishness. Frightened by the dbap- proval which their headstrong ami revolu tionary i course has nrouscd in their own party , they are endeavoring to bolster up their shaky position by appeals to sectional ism and party pride. If ourlnstlutions are to bo preserved , pure and intact , every patri otic citizen must do his duty in rebuking this grasping and tyrannical political oligarchy. " After discussing the tariff so far us It re lates to the interests of the fanners , the governor continued : "But uot only has a republican congress stooicd | to a shartwr trick to hoodwink the American fanner in the matter of tariffs , on his products , but it lius made his living oven more expensive than it hitherto has been. Ills woolens paj ! ) per cent moro duty , while a rich jiian's broadcloth pays a duty of 10 per cent moro. The duty on sealskin sacxiucs Is reduced 10 percent , while that on silk plush sacques , which the poor woman wears , Is Increased tiO per cent. The duty on worsted shawls , which the fanner's wife wears , Is raised from 60 to bO per cent and on woolen shawls the increase varies from 10 per cent to yo. On women nnd children's cheap dress goods the lncroa n is much less. For his flannels the consumer must pay nn Increase of at least .10 per cent In duty. On rcadymudo clothing the increase lu taxation is from 51 per cent to 81. " The governor mentioned sweral other articles , and added ; "On milk puns , tin pails , tin cans , coITeo pots , Kuttlcj , cups and oilier articles of tiuwuro the people are to bo taxed $ tW,000,0 < W for three years iu order that a few manufacturers may experiment with the tinplate plato indusary , " "If you think this la a partisan statement , read what a member of Harmon's cabinet says about it In a recent ailveitlsomcnt : 'Tin ware is advancing In cost und very soon man ufacturers will have their way and you and I will have to pay much more. In vlow of this state of things wo made , some 11 mo since , a largo purchase of kitchen tinware at what was a low price then mid would bo far lower now In the face of twotidvances in the market prlca lists. John Wanamaker. All over the country the effect of such legislation has been to In crease the prices of dry go ils and other housonold necessities. Not ull of this Increase Is perhaps Justifiable , but sharp merchants have been quick to take ad vantage of thiopportunity ) which the McICln- ley bill offered them and the poor consumer s the victim , whether Justly or not , The McKtuloy bill tins clcllnod shamlv the Ksup ipon which tlio two turtles nro divided. In its enactment the republican party has lemonstrated moro clearly than ever tlmt Iho sympathies of Its leaders are not with the great IIMSJ of peopl"butwith certain favored clas < et. The economic doctrine which the xirlv now supports Is ono It would repudiate n ton ycrua and which some of ts great men , like Ululnc , are ovl- lentlv de < lrlng to repudiate now. At a time when our Industries nre liiiipuUh- UR from overproduction and our agricultural > rodiiets nro finding competition in foreign , nurliots NO think within ourselves and de clare for a pollcv of nou-lntcrcourso witti ) ther tuitions. The time has LO.IIOheii .ho demands of mo munufiictiiiers and producers arc for wider markets muhi'U not limited to the liordert or our own country or our own continent -but wldo as the world.

I want to see the wealth of Huropo and Asia und Unnnd.i and SoUh Ameil-a pour Into this country to Increase thowaKcs of every laborer ami enrich every clthen. Hut I do not e.Npect to behold such results with the present economic system.Ve have i commanding position In the con test for In ternational trade.

The other party holds that tno homo market is already over supplied , that high iirotectlvo duties hnvo produced unhealthy competition , resulting iu over production , the clomip of mills and reduction in wages. It finds ctroat industries languishing because of highly taxed raw imtcriuls und limited mar kets , It perceiies tlio organisation of great trusts and combines to rcchico competition and extort high prices. It ilnds agriculture depressed by reason of the restitutions our government imposes upon the commerce of other nations , Kuropo is buying more and moro of IICP hicadstulTs from liussin , India and Egypt. It suggests the icmoval of nil unnecessary bar- i lei's to commorciaUntorcoiit.eroeoininciuHiiK ! the free admission of raw materials used in tno the manufactured. It will Impose higher duties than are necessary to meet foielgn competition on articles vo produce ; it will cncourago that International tr.ulohich witl keep our fanners ut.d mills busy to supply lorcign wonts , thereby giving steady employment to labor , increasing wages bccnuso of the in- crca-icd demand for labor , bringing hundreds of millions of wealth into.tho country and promoting thut general happiness ami pros perity to which the natuio of our population nnd our resources entitles us. " Uovorting once moro to thoMcKinley bill , the speaker asked vhat would become of us if .Europe should retaliate by checking her imports of breadstuff * , cotton , oil and pro- vi.slons from tlio United States } "We sent abroad hist year STM..OOO.lXH ) worth of Roods , and three-fourths of them wcro ngtlcultural products , What could recompense this nmn- trv for the loss of this vast nuukcti \\f hat could alleviate the distress among nil classes of people I Well might lllalno say that the McIClnloy bill won't open a now market for a slu lo bushel of wheat or u barrel of porlc. We ought to feel giutoful If it docs not deprive us of what market we have. " Ih conclusion Governor Hill spoke ofcou- tcat In this ( the Sixteenth ) congressional district , urging every democrat to vote for Warwick , the democratic candidate. For McKlnley personally ho hart the highest respect - spect , but there never had boon a partisan outrage attempted against Iho democratic party which McKluley has not supported , heslues being instrumental in forcing upon the country a tarifT measure which can prop erly bo deslguated "tho bum of all villainies.
