2 TITTD OMAHA DAILY ATTCttW ID , 180G. the overshadowing Issue of this campaign , " ho said ; CANNOT INCREASE WAGES. I nm n llttlo puzzled to decide Just whnt Mr. lirynn himself Imagines will lie the fruit of n change In the standard of value throughout this country. I do ; not belloyo thnt nny man cnn follow wholly with the nm-cch , 1i rue If ho dissents from ono not of conclusions , ho has got lo rend but n few paragraphs nnd he will find another. If Mr. Hrynn could show me that by nny means known to irwiven or earth wages could lie Increased I will ho rendy to sup port him. because I know of no test of prosperity absolutely Infulllhlo except Iho rate of wares paid to Jiiborcrs. When wo come to find how Jlr , Hrynn cxrects to Influence the wages of labor wo find our selves lost In a mnre of contradiction No man can tell how or where or when the wages of the worklnR mnn arc to be In creased ; hut any ono who examines the scheme cnn sen that the Inevitable ten dency , the Inevitable comoquenrp of a de basement In the standard of value , must bo n reduction In the rate of wages and thnt Is the conspiracy In which the jiopu- llBt In ongiiHed. Now. Mr lirynn tell.us ; that ho wants to cheapen the dollar ; that ' ho wants to Increase the volume of money. T do not Imllovo that any mun who ever lived could iiulto understand n populist' * notion of wliat money Is. further than thnt ho believes It Is n desirable thing to Bet and he Is not very particular about the means by which he can eel his hands on It. Nothing Is more common than the mistake that rponoy ntnl 'property arc Iden tical. They are not There may be a very largo volume of circulating medium and very great poverty As a matter of fact , an Increase In the coinage Is no proof of an Increase In property , but may bo a strong proof of a decrease In wealth. It In not the volume or money , but the ac tivity of money that counts. The basis of sound trade Is sound money ( applause ) , money which Is Intrinsically valuable , money which , like the Bold colnnnu of this country , the government cannot af fect If It tries to , I can take a JIO gold piece and I can defy all the power of nil the governments of this earth to take 5 cents' value from It. It Is perfectly clear that the purpose of the populist 1st to put up the price of certain commodities. Mr. Bryan's language Is that h < > Is going to Improve the conditions of the people of this country. If he Is going to work any change In the conditions of men hi- must Increase the material posse.ssluri of some part of tlie community. Now. If he got possession of the government tomorrow , he woum not create one single thing of value by nny exercise of goveaimental power In the world. No power ever yet exercised by tyrant or by constitutional monarch can cause a , barren field to become useful can cause two blades of grass to grow where ono grew before , can brine together the stones thnt compose this building and raise them Into n stately temple dedicated to political discussion. No. It requires the Tabor of man , and the labor of man alone , to crcat wealth. If Mr. Bryan Is going to enrich somebody the thing which he means to bestow on him ho must tnko from somebody else. Who Is to be despoiled and who Is to be enriched by the exercise of this new scheme of government ? ( A cry of "Silver mine owners. " ) Mj friends , the silver mlno owners will be cheated with the rest. WILL , RAISE PRICKS. A government can never be generous , be cause If It It to be generous to one It must be oppressive to another. Hut this finan cial scheme contemplates nn Increase In thn price of certain commodities. If the price of commodities bo Increased and the price of labor bo left stationary , why , that means n cutting down of the rate or wages. "Wago earners , " Mr , Ilryn.n says , "know that while a gold standard raises the pur- chnslnr power of llic dollar , It also makes It more dllllcult to obtain possession of that dollar. They know that employment Is less permanent , loss of work more probable and re-employment less certain. " If that means anything It means that a cheap dollar would give him more employment , more frequent employment , more work and a chance to get re-employment after he was discharged. If that means anything It means that If the laborer Is willing to have his wages cut dawn he will get more -work Hut n diminution in the rate of wages docs not Increase the scope of employment. The more abundant the product the higher the wages. There cannot be an abundant prod uct unless labor extensively employed Mr. Hrynn would have you believe that prosperity Is advancing by cheapening the rate of wages , but the fall In the rate of wages always conies from a narrow pro duction , and narrow production menus there Is little demand for labor In the market. When , after the panic of 187J , the price of labor fell to DO cents a day It was hardqr to obtain labor than when the rate of labor was J2. J ow , the populist loves to say that the creditor Is n person who oppresses the west ern farmer. The creditors of this country nro not the bankers ; they are not the so- called capitalists ; they are the laborers and It Is at the expense of labor thnt this change Is made. The laborer Is always u creditor for at least one day's work. When nny man can show me a laborer who has been paid In advance for a duy's work I will show him a laborer who is n debtor The laborer by the very law of his being- creditor for at least one day's work Is gen erally a creditor for a week's work or two weeks' work. Every great Industrial en terprise has for Its chief operators Ita own laborers. The heaviest account In every de partment of Industry , whatever It may be , Is always the wages account. NEBRASKA MORTGAGE FALLACY. The pretense thnt the farmer of Nebraska Is suffering under n weight of a mort gage contracted under a metal which has steadily Increased In value Is but a populls- tlc metaphor. Two-thirds of the farmers have no mortgage debts whntuver. I do not believe there Is 5 per cent of them that owe a mortgage over three years old during which time there has been no change In the vnluo of the metal. This proposal of the populists is an intent to enlist the fnrmc-i In u conspiracy to reduce the wages paid his labor , that he may have a larger pro portion of his own products , and they are willing to cut down the wages of every man who works In cities , who tolls at the bench , who digs In the mines , who manages the train. In the hope that they ean ridu Into power on a wave of cupidity and creed awakened In the breast of the voter. Hut my friends. It Is a triumphant vindication of American citizenship that this attempt to enlist the farming and agricultural mem bers ofthla community Into this conspiracy has failed , mlsoiably. utterly , absolutely Every western state which In 1S90 and 1832 fell into the hands of the popullstu and went Into the farmers' alliance before their real purposes were executed was puri fied and the populist force scattered out of existence when the farmers of this coun. try understood precisely that whnt the pop- ullstn meant for his welfare wan ically for his ruin. The farmer who. when this country was in danger , shouldered his mus ket to sot It aside when the last shot hud bren nred on the southern battlefield , whoso moderation prevented the political wan-lorn nt Washington from pursuing a policy of disci Imlnatlon and punishment In the southern BtnUs-thnt farmer who made thn policy of the north n policy of concil iation of forgiveness , of reunion , whose hand It wan that made ruin or her cities and ashes of her homes , received ln-r once more and fald"Ilve In pence and sin no more. " That farmer today Is the main stay of order and of property , ua ho was the malnstny of the union. Mr. Cockran proceeded to talk of the composition of the Chicago convention , pointing out that the sound money demo crats of thn noith were submerged by a wnvo of populism from the south , adding- " "Thcie has been a great ch.inga In thn dem- pc.ratlo organization of the southern states. The men who , from a mistaken sense of loyalty , followed their states out of the union , whoso gallantry in war. whoca forti tudes In defeat , won the admiration of the civilized world , the men whoce virtues com manded the support of northern public Opinion In the attempt to overturn carpet bag government In the southern mates the men who led their men through all the troubled period of reconstruction back Into n full union with the Bister states tbc o men like Hampton In North Carolina and Caffroy In Louisiana have been swept fiom poucr. n now set has got Into the saddle , a net of leaders of which Tlllman Is the exponent , who baldly unfurled the sectional flag at Chicago and declared that UiU populist movement Is a direct movement against the prosperity of the cast. " And ho followed this up by ridiculing the Idea that the tellers of New York and other eastern states would allow their wages to be uf- facted by auy man who nuver Iiaa paid wages at nil.

So wcro the mountains piled full of mineral treasures WO venrs IIKO. The same atmosphere enwrapped this continent ; the sumo soil covciud the field ; the mime nun shonn In heaven , nnd yet there was none but the r.avano putHultiff the pathway or war throiiKh the trackless forests ; and the river born no sliiRlo llvlnt ? thins ex cept the Indian In hla citnoe pursuing n pathway of destruction. There was no industrial co-operation , because the Indian was n savnio and does not understand the principles by which men aid each other In taltlnff from the ho nm of the earth the wealth which makes llfo deMlraUlo and de- velopes the Intelligence which makes civil ization. Anything which attacks that basis of human confidence Is a crime imnlnst civilization nnd a blow against the founda tions of social order. Wo believe that the very essence of civil ization is mutual Interest , mutual forbear ance , mutual co-opernllon. Wo believe the world hns pot past the tlmo when men's hands nro nt each other's thro.Us. Wu be- llevii loday that men Htanil shoulder to shoulder working toRothcr for a common purpose beneficial to all ( applause ) and we belluvo that thlH nttompt to assail WDRCS , which means nn attempt to attack the prosperity of nil. will be resisted not by a class , but by the whole nation. What labor has Ktilned. that shall It keep The rate of wanes that Is paid to It today Is the lowest rate we will ever willingly ac cept. We look forward to a further and further Increase In the prosperity of work- Inrrmcn , not merely by nn Increase In the dally wnee , but by a further Increase In the purchasing power of WIIRCS. Mr. Cockran enlarged a little further on this attack on thn wages of the workingman - man , saying that "the man who raises his hand against the progress of the workingman - man lalses his hand against prosperity. " In conclusion Mr. Cockran said : I do not regret this campaign. The time has come when the people of this country will show their capacity for self-govern ment. They will prove that the men that left the world In the pathway of progress will bo lealous guardians of liberty and of order They an ; not to bo seduced by ap peals to their cupldltv or moved by threats of Injury. They will forever guard and jealously trim the lamp of enlightenment and of piogress. They will over relentlessly preys and crush under their heel the flaming torch of populist discontent , populist agita tion and populist destruction. When this tide of notation shall have receded this tide of populist agitation , this assault upon the common honesty nnd upon Industry shall have been ab.itcd forever , the founda tions of this republic will remain undis turbed. This government will still settle a people Indissolubly wedded to liberty and order. Jealously forbidding any distinction of burden and of privilege , preserving prop erty , maintaining mornlltv , resting forever upon the brpad basis of American patriot ism nnd American intelligence.

Bryan's mail began to came In at this point today , and there was qulto a bundle of It this morning when ilr Bryan arose , at a later hour than usual , for him. He found a great many letters to con tain invitations from various cities to speak. He said : "This Is the very reason why I don't want my route made known. I shall speak nt aa many places aa possible , and as often as tb.ii campaign committee desires me , but I cannot stop at every place. " Syracuse , N. Y. , is one of the cities thnt Is urging Mr. Dryan to stop. Mayor JIagulrc wrote only yesterday , saying that on the way west Mr. Bryan must stop anil make a hpccch. Several cities have sent urgent in vitations to the candidate to speak within their borders. As yet , while n partial Itinerary , as published by the Associated press , has been arranged , the complete list of places has not been selected. Mr. Bryan may decide later to stop off for an hour erse so at Syracuse on his way west next week if the campaign committee thinks It will not detract from the Buffalo speech. This village Is .striving this morning to J'cgalu its usual quietude. Two thousand spectators wore present last night , and the hotel Keeper remarked sacely this morning that "there ain't been so many people here since Martin Van Buren visited here , " and this statement recalls what Is a historical fact , thnt the only other presidential nomi nee that over got so far In this part of the country , or visited this- particular spot , was Martin Van Burcn. Mr. aiul Mrs. Bryan and Mr. and llrs. Per- rlne went to Spring Lake this afternoon on a flshlug expedition. Tomorrow or Thursday , Mr. Bryan will take a trip over the river Into the Catskllls. Mr. Bryan Is looking anil feeling better already after the two ( lays' tilp , and hs ! volco was lu prlrnn con dition.

The democratic and populist conventions mot this afternoon effected temporary organizations and ad journed until 7:30 : this evening.

John L. Webster , as sisted by Hun. Jack MacColl , Cady , Iloag- laml and Abbott , formally opened the repub lican camaplgn al North 1'latle this even Ing. The large opera , house was packed , contain ing fully 1,000 people. The cuthuslasm was nt a high pitch and the audience , time and again , burst forth with tremendous applause. The sponkera punctured the silver arguments of Bryan and brought forth with telling effect the salient points of sound money , protection niul reciprocity. The music was furntnhcd by the North Platte Hepubllcan Qlco club. Mr. Webster prefaced his re marks upon nn exposition of the fundamental financial principles regulating the relations of gold ami silver. Continuing he snld : "Jefferson and Hamilton spent about two years of their time In the endeavor to find out tlio commercial vnluo of the two metals before a ratio was agreed upon which was set down In the law of 1792. Jefferson and Hamilton agreed on the fundamental prin ciple that the mercantile value of the silver bullion put In' the silver dollar must be equal to the mercantile value of the gold put Into a gold gollar. If Jefferson and Hamilton were right , the free silver men of today are wrong. If Jefferson and Hamil ton were right you cannot have bimetallism with only 50 cents worth of silver In the silver dollar. "Hut a few nights ago I heard a free silver orator proclaim thnt the money of Jefferson and Hamilton , Washington and Lincoln was good enough for the people of today. Hut the money of Jefferson and Hamilton. Washington and Lincoln was a money which required 100 cents In mercan tile value of the bullion to go In each specific dollar. The republican party today stands with Jefferson upon that proposition and Is unalterably opposed to the free silver fallacy of today. Mr. William J. llryan ap peals to Jefferson nnd jet Jefferson and Bryan are as much opposed to each other on the money iiucstlon ns the autocratic ruler of Russia Is opposed to the liberties of the American people. " Touching the worth of the two metals the speaker said he still regarded the finan cial principles of Jefferson nnd Hamilton as resting on unchangeable nnd unalterable truths. "So believed the Omaha World-Herald In 1S93. I tool ! occasion a few nlg-hta ago. In one of my public addresses , to read from the Omaha Worlil-Hcrald to prove the truth of this declaration. I read from an editorial of the Omaha World-Herald to prove thnt the only honest bimetallism was n bimet allism which put Into the respective coins a quantity of metal which had an equal commercial value. I read from an editorial of the World-Herald to show that uo persons except the 'greedy silver mine owners were Interested in the free and unlimited coin age of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. ' I read further from the same editorial that It was the effort of the United States to maintain a large circulation of currency restIng - Ing on debased silver that produced the stringency that let ! to the panic of 1S93. "The next morning I read an editorial In the Omaha World-Herald. In which It ad mitted the publication of the editorial , but stated that since then It had changed Its opinion. It was unnecessary to make this explanation. Everybody knew that the World-Herald has changed Its opinion on tfio money question. This change of opinion Is an admitted fact. The question at Issue Is not the fact that the World-Herald changed Its opinion , but the question la what caused It to change Its opinion. "If the World-Herald was right then , It Is wrong now. If It Isright trow , It was wrong tten. " , MANV CLUBS TO HIJl'I'OHT M'KIXLKY. RcpubllcnnH Continue to Form Or- ttitiiimitlniiH for Sounil Money. CALLAWAY , Neb. , , Aug. 18.

Ho devoted some lit tle time to the tariff Issue , expressing him self as believing that to be the most Impor tant question before the American people , although It was being crowded Into the rear this campaign.

A combination appears to bo forming nmongst the eastern counties against Judge Green , who would otherwise , perhaps , stand the best show of receiving the nomination.

He , thcro fore , demands nn open charge , which he says ho will refute with detallo of his pri vate life and his financial affairs , or silence. He said toiilaht : "I have already denied this charge on several occasions , but the reiteration of It by Senator Thurston , a distinguished resi dent of my own state.

I have never nt any time or Under any circumstances been In the employ of any mlno owners , Individually or collectively , directly or Indirectly , nor hau > 1 have been In the employ of , or paid by , any bimetallic league association. Aside from my editorial salary of about $150 per month paid by the Omahn World-Herald and n small amount derived from the legal pro fession , my Income since my retirement from congress has been derived entlrclj from lectures before Chautuao.ua , lyceum - ceum and lecture bureaus which have usually paid mo n fixed sum , and from con-- tilbutions mnile by the people of the local ities where I have spoken. In some In stances I hnvo received nothing at all. In most cases I have received more than enough to pay traveling expenses. In ouly two Instances. I think , has my compensation ex ceeded $100 , and In these Instances It wns about $ 00 at ono place and about $300 nt the other. The first platform on which I ran for congress In ISflO. before I was known politically outside of my state , con tained n free coinage plank , and my repub lican opponent that yenr was nn ad- \ocate of free coinage.

In 189 1 , i again ran on n free coinage platform aim my opponent for the senate , Mr. Thurstou \\hlle opposing unlimited coinage at 16 tc 1 , Insisted that he favored bimetallism. 1 wrote the free coinage plank on which 1 ran In 1830 and the free coinage planks In the Nebraska stale platform In 1SS1 IS'J' nnd ISflC , and tried lo secure the ndoptloi. of free coinage planks In the state plat form In 1892 and 1893.

TOM WATSO.VS O1MXIOX OF SEWAI.,1 , . I.ixiKN nn Him DM n Contradiction ol Mr.vmi anil 11 Protectionist. CHICAGO. Aug. 18. The Post's Washing ton special says : Thomas E. Watson , the populist vice presidential nominee. Is out with another statement today. In his com ments on Mr. Bryan's Now York speech and the conduct of the campaign In general Watson says : "To expect to defeat Mc- Klnlcy without saying a word against McKinley - Kinley is something new under the sun but Mr. Bryan's silence was proper and nec essary. Ho could not afford to denounce protection while Mr. Sewall , his running mate , la so well known as a protectionist Mr. Sewall is even now acting In league with the republicans to secure legislation which will levy tribute upon the American con sumer of foreign goods in the selfish Inter est of the New England shipbuilders , of whom ho Is ono , and just as Mr. Sewall's presence on the ticket prevented Mr. Bryan from assailing national banks of issue anil the republican doctrine of protection , so the same baneful Influence prevented him from denouncing railroad monopoly and ex tortion , Mr. Suwall being a corporatlonlst of some proportions himself. In short , It seems that the mission of Jlr. Sewall In the campaign Is to act as a contradiction to Mr. Bryan and the Chicago platform. Foi Instance , Mr. Bryan said In ono of his speeches the other day that If he should bo elected the people who elected him would not be found asking favors of the gov ernment. Wo had not quite finished clap ping hands over this statement before It was made clear to us that the men who nro backing the ticket In Now England will demand that the government levy a fine upon every citizen who dares to buy for eign goods which nre not brought to this country In the ships of Mr. Sewall nnd his republican colleagues.

The stnto convention of gold standard democrats called for today , promised little In the way of enthusiasm or even business at 11 o'clock this forenoon , the hour appointed for calling the convention to order. At that hour , he- aides the delegates who reside here , about a dozen persons were present. No details had been arranged previous to the arrival of the delegates , and it was decided lo await the possible arrival of moro delegates on Into trains. It was 11 o'clock when the convention was called to order , and at that tlmo forty-five delegates were present. After organizing the following delegates to Iho Indianapolis convention were chosen : W. II. Creamer , Jolm W. Gordon , Wells Valentine , P. M. Mcldcn , A. X. Chllda , E. F , Brooks , Ellas May , Henry Gillette. The platform , after asserting the firm adherence of the convention to the "tlmc- honoreil traditions and principles of genuine democrats , with renewed assurances of abiding regard for the welfare , prosperity and business of the people , " proclaims "un swerving loyalty to convictions of public and Individual duty , and reaffirms undaunted fidelity to the platform of the democratic party of Vermont , adopted In state conven tion at Moutpcller on May 27 , 1S9C , urgently commending that portion of the platform which declares 'we demand the maintenance of a gold standard of value as being in the true interests of all people , especially these obliged to labor for what they receive , and are over opposed to the freu coinage of silver except by International agreement.

Among the callers at republican headquarters - quarters yesterday morning WAS n prominent business mnn of Norfolk , who gave n very nnuisliiR nccouut of the free silver meeting recently held nl that place. The attraction of the occasion was Judge Ambrose of this city , who proposed to reply to Horr's speech , delivered there oomc days previous. The caller stntcd that In the first place Herr spoke to 3,000 people , while the nt- tcndnncc nt the silver meeting was limited to less than " 00. Among thoao who oc cupied seats on the stngo on the latter oc- cnslon wns n Norfolk banker and his cashier , Judge Ambrose had scarcely begun his speech when he maile .1 hitter nttnek on bankers In general and come of his re marks were not plennnnt for a banker to hear. The two Bankers on the platform stood It lor nbout fifteen minutes , nhcn they reached for their hats nnd left the stngo Mid the building. Their example was followed by n consldernble portion of the nudlcnro nnd the meeting flnnlly fizzled down tn n very line point. The name authority stnted thnt when JudRo Ambrose arrived nt Norfolk It xvns elmi-KCil that he hnd bolted lo the silver ranks nftcr falling to obtain the republican nomination for one of the contingent JiulKe- slilps. Thli the Judge emphatically denied He drclnrod that he had not been a candidate before the republlcnn convention. It hap pened thnt n Norfolk man had met the Judge at Lincoln dining the stnte conven tion.

He gave many facts In regard lo the former republican administrations , srnw- Ing conclusively the benefits ikrlvcd from th * protectlvo policy of the party. Among other things touched upon , he produced a docu ment , showing in n way the insincerity of ninny of the so-called silvcrltcs as regards the gold standard. The document was n 'case ' executed by the ngont of the Unity building of Chicago , of which Governor Alt- sold of Illinois is largely Interested. The lease wns made in April of the present year to O'Nell & Co. , and notwithstanding Alt- weld's avowed silver principles , the $500 yearly rent was made payable In gold. The reading of the pnper wns the hit of the evening , and evoked continued applause. Mr. Wharton touched upon the depleted treasury as a result of the workings of the democratic party under free trade rule and concluded with an exhortation to nil loyal Citizens to vote the straight national ticket this fall.

Assurances from prominent local demo- ocrats that they will support McKlniey continue to roach the republican campaign managers. There has been scarcely a day since the campaign opened thnt names have not been added to the list and a number ol democrats have Indicated their Intention to take the stump for the republican ticket. Last week Secretary A. J. Lunt of the county central committee sent out a num ber of letters referring to stump survlce during the campaign. One of them was sent to a lifelong democrat , a well known at torney , who baa always been an ardent sup porter of hla party. The reply Indicates his position In the present campaign as fol lows : "Friend Lunt : I have your favor requestIng - Ing me to give you assistance upon the stump in the great cause of sound money and American honor. I am convinced that the only way to quench the lurid flames of anarchy is to vote and work for McKlniey nnd Hobart. As God has given mo an op portunity to see the light I believe that they who are taking advantage of the hard times to deceive the public Into voting for the wholesale repudiation of all debts , both public ami private , are more dangerous enemies of the government than they who levy open war against her.

Ijarjjc Turnout to llrnr I'ollllcnl IHHIICN IllMt-IINNt'll , The room of the Eighth Ward Republican club nt Twenty-fourth and Hamilton streets , was filled to the doors last night with nn enthusiastic crowd In which were several women. The gathering was entertained by Judge Joseph R. Clarkson , who made a 'lengthy speech on the financial question. The judge handled the subject In an in telligent and highly Interesting manner and wns liberally applauded as he Illustrated his points in a convincing way. He discussed the question of ' .he coinage ratio of gold and silver at some length , showing In n logical manner the fallacy of the theory of the sllvcrlfcs , that the United States can coin silver at the ratln of 10 to 1 and keep gold and silver at a parity nt that jatlo , when thn market vuluo of the two metals Is nbout .10 to 1 , It would bo as easy for the United States to mnko the ratio 1 to 1 as to make It IB to 1 when that ratio U not the market value. The other phases of the money question were analyzed by the speaker and ho pre sented the facts in the cnso in a clear and logical manner. WIiy JV t MclUI COLUMBUS. Neb. , Aug 17. To the Editor of The Bee : The thoughtful republicans In this congressional district are becoming quite anxious regarding the situation. It li conceded that Judge Maxwell will ho unanimously tendered the nomination for congress by Iho different parties oppoUng the republlcnn ticket. Tills meana but two candidates In the Held. Wo all know the strength of Judge Maxwell , aa shown In the past , and to defeat him the republicans must name the stionsi'st man In the district. There appears to bo but three active can II- dates nt present , Peebles of Thurnton , Hammond mend of Dodge and Uvprett of Burl. Neither ono of these can possibly cope with Max- well. Many reasons for this conclusion could be given. A weak nomination for congress hurts our state ticket ; a strong nomination helps the utatu ticket. It is In the Interest of thu republican party of the entire state to sec to It that the strongest man In the Third district should bo put In the field against Maxwell , 'To let this lomlnatlon go by defnut jeopardizes the sue- ens of both national and atato tickets In Mebroska. You should call attention to the gravity of the situation and urge the nomination of a man who can be elected. Respectfully. CHARLES H. NORRIS.

Hryan's speech In New York was more temperate than any of his , previous public uttcinnccs , but the pos-I blblllty of n revolution of the financial system of the country continued to work disaster to business Interests. The con troversy Is ono to be calmly and dispas sionately argued out. niul the rcmnrknblo Interest Indicated on all sides shows that the people are disposed to satisfy them selves before they cast their votes.
