Judge John S. Woolson convened the
autumn term of thu federal court yesterday.
The day was chiefly spent In preparation for
the work of the term. The grand and petit
Juries wcru called and sworn , and the former
tent to work to Investigate the complaints
that have been lodged against the men and
women who have offended Uncle Samuel by
violating bis simple laws. The latter class
of cases Is not numerous. The criminal
docket Is the lightest for many years. Men
charged with the offense of selling whisky
without a government license Is the crime
most greatly In evidence. The civil docket
Is iimiHUally slim. The prospects are ex
cellent tint the term will be closed within
a fortnight.
A part of the day was devoted to calling
the docket. In the afternoon the case of
Nellie Henley against the Chicago & Great
Western 1 tail road company was called. The
case comes from Taylor county and has
been pending for the last two years. Mrs.
Henley Is the wlfo of a conductor who was
killed In nn accident while In the employ
of the company The usual terms of settle
ment were rejected by the widow , nnd she
brought suit for $20,000 damages. Thu Jury
was railed ami the preliminary work of the
trial gotten well under way when It was dis
covered that the attorneys for the railroad
roiipany we-e not In cour. . Inquiry teve led
the fuel that they hnd foiled to reach the
city and the case was carried over until
this morning.

Celly Hough contributed sixteen days of
Ills tlmo to the city a month or more ago
ns a gurst of the city jail on a light diet of
cold water and dry bread. It was the first
unpleasant experience that Celly had ever
had with the city officials , and It was con
fidently believed , even by Celly himself ,
that one dose would bo sufficient to cure him
of tits penchant for coming to town and un
dertaking to run things to suit himself. To
make It doubly sure when ho was discharged
lie was given a suspended sentence of eleven
days upon the condition that he should keep
out of town. He stayed away until yesterday.
About noon the fact wan reported to the olH-
cers that ho was taking charge of one of the
Tipper Droadway saloons and getting himself
Into condition for plenty of trouble. Officers
were sent to hunt for him , but ho kept out
of their way until nearly 4 o'clock , when he
fell Into the armu of Olllccr Peterson. He
v.-un booked at the city jail to servo his sen
tence on bread and water , and that will bo
Ills temporary disposition , unless Judge McGee -
Gee makes another order this morning.

The democrats and populists of Potta-
wattamlo county got together yesterday aft
ernoon and agreed upon a fusion ticket for
the county officers. They set up that they
llko It , but many of the ponullsts are very
Indignant because the ticket that was fixed
up by the committee on conference was
radically changed by the democrats. The
populists had to swallow the dose whether
they Ilkinl it or not.
The democratic convention was called to
order nt the superior court room at 10
o'clock In the morning by John T. Ilozen ,
chairman of the county convention. Dr.
S. D. Tobey of Walnut was selected tem
porary chairman and W. S. Amy temporary
secretary. Dr. Tobey mad : the usual speech
of thanks and predicted the election of
Bryan for president by the votes of the
common people. The following committees
were announced and then the convention
adjourned until after dinner ;

SPEECHES AND RESOLUTIONS.
Then thcro wag a long wait for the re
port of the conference committee. Colonel
Whlttlesey read a fairy story from some
Indiana paper , telling of a wonderful scheme
that had been cooked up by Ilnnna to pre
vent the American people from eating pic
and to compel them to take to a rice diet ,
Judge Davis of Crcston was called and
made a flowery talk on the silver question
am ! finally after a lot of skirmishing by
committees Low T. Gcnung , the fusion can
didate for congress , was brought Into the
hall and made a speech. He paid a tribute
to Samuel J , Tlldcn , whom ho represented ,
as the greatest dead democrat , and said W , j
'
J. Bryan was the greatest living democrat ,
His only dcslro was to be as good a demo
crat as Samuel J. Tllden was and W. J.
Hryan ! s.
After Mr , Gcnung's talk the committee
on resolutions presented the followlrv.
which were adopted :
W * . democrat ) * of Pottawattamlo county
Iowa , lu conventlou assembled , endorse nnd
ri'iilllrni the platform enunciated by the
national democrat'c pirty at Chicago and
the platform adopted by the democratic
state convention nt Ottumwii.
Wo condemn tlio policy of the republican
party In Its efforts to enhance the purchas
ing power of money bv contracting the
voluino thereof to a fold basis , thereby low
ering the price of all commodities ns well
ns the price of labor , and w > liclh-vc that
If uch ii polkur Is pursued It will result In
disaster to the farmers , laborers and pro
ducers of the entire country , such policy
being wholly In the Interest of monopolies
and thu money power.
All of this work had been purely prelim
inary lu character and all Interests cen
tered In the report of the conference com-
mltteo which had been appointed to fix
the thing up. Finally Fremont Benjamin ,
as a member of the committee , presented
his report. Ha said the committee had had
something of a time. There were good
IKipullsta who wanted to get a nomination
who were not acceptable to the democrats
mid there were good democrats In line for
office that caused shivers to run up and
down the pqpullst back when their names
were mentioned. Fremont did not put It
In Just that language , but the convention
drew that Inference before the squabble
was over. The conference committee rec
ommended the division of the ticket as
follows : H. If. Ware , democrat , for county
attorney ; E. P. Brown of Ncola , populist ,
for auditor ; L. O. Williams , free silver re
publican , for clerk of the court , and AV. H.
SchHIIng of Avoca , democrat , for member
of the lloard of Supervisors. The committee
had not brei ) able to agree upon a candidate
for ifcordcr and had decided to let Iho
conventions fight It out In their own'way. .
BILL CUPPY STARTS THU FIREWORKS ,
The report did not etrlko the conven
tion with any too much favor. Your Uncle
BUI Cuppy of Avoca > * lled : "Hold on there ,
Mr , I'reuldliiK Officer. I won't stand this.
Thin convention delegated tlio authority tea
a committee to tell thu populists that they
might name the candidates for oue or two
offices , but this convention did not delegate
thu power to the committee to name the
candidates. In the name of blgh heaven
and justice I kick on such action. I won't
stand It , You can't do It , d d If you
can , "
Jnson R. Lewis' great headgear got Into
operation end he saw a way out of It. Ho
moved that the report of the committee be
iccelvcd and that the convention act on
the candidates serrlatcm. A gentleman
from Keg Creek wanted to know what Mr.
Lewis meant by "Sarah At "Em , " and Jason
started In to explain. Jasc's long suit Is In
explanation , and there was need of more
light In the room when he got through.
It was finally decided that the convention
would receive nominations for county attor
ney , and W. H. Ware. W. F. Potion , S. II.
Wadsworth of Council Bluffs and Rlley
Clark of Ncola were placed In nomination.
Mr. Ware fell a few votes short of the nomi
nation on the first ballot , but he was named
on the second.
K. P. Brown was nominated for auditor
and L. 0. Williams for clerk of the courts
by acclamation.
Then came the break from the conference
slate. W. H. Schilling , the conference com
mittee's candidate for member of the board
of supervisors was met by the naming of
B. B. Dentlcr , the ptcscnt Incumbent. Dent-
Icr won.
There were speeches to spare on the nomi
nation of a candidate for recorder of deeds.
A. McCandles of Avoca was nominated In
a charnclcrlsttc speech by William Cuppy ,
who declared that the convention might
rue the day If It failed to place sonic
cast end man on the ticket. Another cast
end man demanded McCandles' nomination.
Ho had got past the point ot making re
quests. He had to have It. Thomas F.
Callaghan of Council Bluffs was presented.
M. L. Jones and Benjamin Davis were also
named. On the first ballot Callaghan and
McCandles tied on fifty votes each , and
then came the. skirmishing. Kncphcr , dem-
ocrat-at-large , took charge of the campaign
for Callaghan , and began voting wherever
votes were needed. He voted In his own
ward and was soon spotted by Fremont
Benjamin casting the vote for Carson pre
cinct. The vote was challenged , and
Kncphcr fulled to present the proper creden
tials as a proxy for Dr. Hempstcad , who had
left the room. He was ruled out by the
chairman , and appealed to the convention.
The convention sat upon him good and
plenty. The vote of the East Omaha end
of the Sixth ward had also been cast , but
was thrown out , no one appearing with any
excuse for representing the precinct. Mat
ters were getting pretty badly mixed at this
time , but Jase Lewis came to the rescue.
Ho took on himself the job of relieving
the secretary and kept the tally of the vote.
Then he wanted to check It up. and spent
n long time In reading his own figures. Ho
finally announced that Callaghan had re
ceived sixty votes and McCandles fifty-two ,
and Callaghan was declared the nominee
and the convention adjourned.

While the democrats were having their
matinee the populists were down In Farm
ers' hall shifting the scenes In order to
keep the play In eight. At the morning
session W. F. Patton had been made tem
porary chairman and C. D. Watts tempo
rary secretary , and the following commit
tees appointed :

On Ri'Sollltlons-C. L. Gillette , D. P. Dod-
rill and James F. Flood.
At the afternoon session the organization
was completed by the selection of C. B.
Bardsley of Neola as permanent chairman
and Mr. C. D. Watts a permanent secre
tary. The committee on credentials pre
sented a list of delegates , which was ac-
ceptc-d , and the convention was ready to
see what would be the outcome of the cbn-
fercnce with the democrats.
The free silver republicans presented the
following resolution , which was adopted :
Resolved , That the salaries of all county
onicers should bo reduced In the same
ratio that the farmers' products and labor
ers' wages have been.
The following resolutions and platform ,
written on the letterhead of the Brya.i Me
tallic club and In the same handwriting as
the brief platform of the democrats , was
presented by the committee on resolutions
nnd unanimously adopted :
Wo , the popullstB of Pottawattamlc
county. In convention assembled , do hereby
endorse .and realllrm the platform as
adopted by the national convention at St.
Louis , and we further recognize the fact
nnd alllrin that the money question Is the
paramount Issue before the American people
ple In this campaign , and we severely criti
cise the republican party nnd Its candidate
for president In Its Jekyl and Hyde char
acter before the voters of this nation , It
having declared for the past twelve years
In three separate platforms , and on two
occasions where Mr , MeKlnley was chair
man of the platform committee , In most
emphatic terms that It was In favor of both
gold and silver ns tUandnrd money , and now
at variance with all of Its grand leaders
and statesmen , KXich ns Lincoln , Grant ,
Garfleld Logan and Blalne , turns Its back
to the great common people of thu nation
and bows In humble submission to the
money kings of Wall street and the
crowned Imids of Europe. And we believe
that until this great question Is settled In
the Inteitsts of America no permanent
prosperity can come to the people of this
land. Under the constitution of the United
States congress has the power to coin
mcney and regulate the value , nnd to dele
gate this power or any part of It to the
crowned heads of Europe sounds the death-
knell of human liberty throughout the
world.
About this tlmo messengers began arriving
with reports of the action of the demo
cratic convention , and the delegates formed
thcniEclves Into a ratification meeting and
swallowed the pills that Dr. Tobey sent
down without any great kick , Mr , Patton
and a few members grew somewhat ob
streperous , but the majority grinned and
bore It. The wise ones said that they had
not expected the democrats to keep faith
with them , but they had done so much bet
ter than had been expected that It was
deemed wise to put up with the changes
made In the conference slate , at least net
to make any open fight on It In the con
vention. The result was that the populists
formally ratified all the nominations made
by the democrats and adjourned as soon as
the utrlng had been played out ,

It required a couple of hours of earnest
work anil a good deal of figuring last even
ing for the Kane township republicans to
select the three candidates for justice of
the peace' and three for constables. The
convention met In the county court house.
John Limit wan made chairman and Ralph
Williams was chosen secretary.
Informal ballots were taken for both sets
of candidates. The formal ballot for Jus
tices resulted In OvU Vlen receiving 33
volts , H. O. Cook 40 and J. W. Ferrler 33
and they were declared the nominees. S. T.
Walker was the next highest , but his total
vote only reached twenty-live.
The Jlght for the nomination for con
stables brought out a , large number of can
didates and the complexion of the Informal
ballot Indicated a hard fight , but the formal
smoothed the way for F. A. Grant , Leo Al-
bertl and HI Halrd. H.ilrd led with 4S
votes. Albertl had 41 and Grant had 33.
F. W. Kost and A. Fellentreter were ro-

the electric light company got ready to
rebuild It , on the corner of Hroadway and
Ninth street , at the head of Union avenue.
Councilman Pace explained that the petition
was gotten up by the property owners when
they were Informed that tho'company could
not rebuild It upon the old'site on account
of the Interference of telegraph and telephone -
phone wires , and when It/was iproposed to
erect It on the corner of Mynster and Eighth
streets. He stated that the cpmpany had
succeeded In overcoming the objections of
the telegraph and tclephonp companies and
was ready to begin work at once. Ho
stated thut a change of tbu location to the
south side of Broadway and a block further
away would leave Mynster street without
any light and create the necessity for more
lights , which the city could nojt afford just
now. In view of this fact'he urged that no
change should be made In the locution. The
council agreed , and the petition was placed
oa file.

power to act.
George Schlndlo asked the council to re
consider the matter of his claim for rent
for a barn used by the sewer and city engi
neer's department upon the ground that the

Ho made a good showing for his claim , and
the matter was reconsidered and referred to
the committee of the whole.

gram. ) The State Railroad commission to
day began a long scries of bearings on
the revision of express rates In the state.
Under a law of the last legislature the
commission la required to prepare a
schedule of maximum express rates. The
American , Adams , Wclls-Fargo , United
States and Pacific companies were repre
sented by their general officers at the meetIng -
Ing toJay. They argued at length that
any material reduction of rates could not
bo borne by the companies , They say they
pay to the railroads 45'cenU out of every
dollar they collect. They 'aro not allowed
by the roads to charge lou- rates ; that
would compete with freight. They say
their business has In recdjit years been cut
seriously by the fast freight service of the
roads , which has taken frqm tncm the whole
of the fruit business. Thu postal ucrvlco
also competed with them ana takes much
business.
The Iowa Swine Breeders ' association

are required to sign cotitr'actB which de-
pi Ivo them of any opportunity to recover In
rauo of damage to the property. Tlio com

James II. Van Uusen has returned from
New York state , where he * pcnt the greater
part of the summer. While absent Mr. Van
Duscn made n number of political speeches
and Investigated thoroughly the situation
In that section of the country. In regard
to his trip he says :
"I was In central New York for over two
months and during that time I met many
old acquaintances who had been lifelong
democrats , and nearly all of the leaders ,
outside of those seeking political oHloo ,
were opposed to the Chicago platform. The
rank and flic of the voteta In Dnondaga ,
Cayuga and Seneca counties consider the
Chicago platform as revolutionary. They
are strenuously opposed to tampering with
the supreme court or changing our mone
tary system to a silver basis. Central New
York will give a large majority for Mc-
Klnley anil Hobart. From what I could see
and learn Mr. Bryan weakened himself
very materially by ever going to the state.
The people expected to hear a wonderful
orator and a great free silver expounder.
They were disappointed In his speeches
and consider him a man of ono speech.
They have no sympathy with his effort to
array class against class and the farmers
of that state will sternly rcbuko the at
tempt on election day. Judge Tcnny of
Brooklyn told me that Mr. Bryan would
not carry his city or the city of New York.
As the campaign advances there the demo
cratic nominees grow weaker. MeKlnlcy
and Hobart will carry New York by 75.000

ber of the faculty of the Swedish seminar *
at Ltndsborg. Kan. , and member of the oom-
m it too on resolutions at the republican na
tional convention , addressed an Immense
mooting of Swedish Americans In Karb.irh
hall , Klftctnth and Howard slrcots , last
night. The hall scats about 2.000 people and
was filled to the doors , standing room being
at a premium. The meeting was under the
auspices of the Swedish-American Oarfleld
club and was called to order by John Nor-
berg , president of the club , who Introduced
John Steel as chairman of the evening.
The Xordcn Singing society , under the di
rection of Prof. Edgt-en , sang several vocal
selections and Miss Mueller sang a solo with
male chorus.
P. O. Iledlund and A. S. Churchill , can
didates , rispectlvely , for stnto auditor nnd
attorney general , were Introduced by the
chairman and made very brief talks , after
which the speaker of the evening , Prof.
Swenson , was Introduced.
Prof. Swensnn was greeted with prolonged
applause and cheers and was compelled to
wait for several seconds bfore he could make
himself heard. Ho commenced by expressIng -
Ing his surprise at the size of his audience ,
saying republicanism must be at high tide
when sueh crowds greeted speakers. Then
he caused several very audible smiles by
remarking that the Swedes did not usually
take an active part In politics , but preferred
to remain at homo attending to their private
business.
Launching out Into his subject the speaker
traced the patriotism of the Swedes to the
Interest of their adopted country back to the
old Viking spirit which had carried their
forefathers to this country hundreds of years
before the Spaniard , Columbus , ever heard of
It. In stirring language he referred to the
devotion of the Swedes to the Interests of
the United States , and said they were accus
tomed to using sound reasoning and were
not to bo led astray by high sounding
phrases and did not change their opinions In
a hurry. "The Swedes. " ho said , "did not
come to , this country with a red Hag In one
hand and a stick of dynamite In the other.
They were law abiding citizens and the
Jails and penitentiaries were not filled with
them. "
ISSUE ONE OF PROSPERITY.
The speaker paid a high tribute to the
bearer of the free sliver standard ns
a man , but expressed the firm conviction that
ho was a dangerous man to entrust with the
public odlco to which he Is aspiring. Ho
recalled the campaign of 1SCO , when one of
the rallying cries was "Honest Abe of Illi
nois , " and said that In this campaign the
republican party had given another keynote
ami the cry now Is "Honest Hill of Ohlii. "
the man who stands for the worklngnicn ,
the farmer , the mills and the factories. Ho
declared that the Issue was not th" liberat
ing of the black slaves , as It had boon In
that early campaign , but the Issue Involved
the liberty and perpetuity Jf American In
stitutions and prosperity.
Prof. Swcnhon said the hard tlmos In the
west had been charged to the Rothschilds ,
but he held that the financial depression Is
due to the "booms" with which these west
ern statrs endeavored to elevate themselves
to the level of the older and more prosperous
states of the east. Money had been borrowed
to an unlimited cxtontnnd beyond the ability
of the borrower to pay and the result was
Inevitable. It was not due to the Roths
childs , but to the Individuals who borrowed
the money.
Discussing the prevailing low prices of
farm products , the speaker said the sllvorltes
charged that all was due to the lack of nll-
ver , but ho asserted that free trade was re
sponsible. "It Is not a larger per capita
that Is needed , " said he , "but more busi
ness to keep the money In circulation. "
Ho usserted that wages and prices bear no
relation to the per capita circulation , but the
business of the country depends upon the
credit of the country , and ho explained his
meaning at some length ,
The vrholo solution of the difficulty which
confronts the country ho declared lay In the
tariff laws. The business men of this country -
try , ho said , have to pay for the privilege
of doing business here and thcro was no
Justice In allowing the foreigner to come In
and take all the business away from the
home producer and not require the foreigner
to bear any portion of the burden of main
taining the government.
Taking up the silver question , the speaker
denounced the charges of the opposition that
the St. Louis convention was controlled by
Wall street. Ho recalled the fact that he
was a member of the committee on resolu
tions and told his hearers the story of the
NO FAITH CURE.

He then OUciissod the free coinage qu
tlon and Illustrated lit practical operation
by producing a dollar coined In Sweden In
1716 during the relRti of Charlc * XII , under
free coinage laws. The doJ arvaa of cop
per nnd was about dx6 Inches In nlzo anil
nearly half an Inch In thickness. ' tt weighed ,
about two pounds , and had n hole in ono
corner by which U might be strung on aN Jro
for carrying. This money was coined rrf-
order lo make up for Miortage In the royal
exchequer and was designed as a substitute-
for sll\rr for circulation among the common
people , the silver all being gathered up by
the king , except what was spirited out of the
country or hidden In the cellars. Although ,
the dollar had six stumps of the government
on It , It was not accepted at Us ( ace value ,
flfly of them being required to buy ono yanl
of cloth , which sold for J4 In silver. Tlio
speaker explained the actual operation of
the free coinage law * of Sweden at that
period and dtew n lesson from that experi
ence , showing what might be expected In thin
country If the free silver theorists should
gain the day.
I'rof. Swenson was frequently Interrupted
