LINCOLN, Oct. 27. (Special.) The se
ond day'a registration In this city failed
ClT the- fualonlats any comfort, but on the
contrary strengthened the hopes ot the re
publicans and assured them a majority
rote In this county which will probably
exceed that of any recent year. Nearly as
many Toters have already registered as
roUd last year and of the total number
over two-thirds expressed affiliation with
the republican party. In many of the pre
cincts the registration yesterday was 2 to 1
or greater in favor of the republican party,
notwithstanding the concerted effort of the
fusion mansgers to get out tbelr full
strength.
In one precinct In the First ward 212
persona have already registered, while last
year the total vote was only 1S6. In pre
cinct C of the Fourth ward 215 persons
hare registered, as against a total vote
last rear of only 297. In Mr. Bryan's pre
elnot the registration Is proportionately as
large and republicans confidently expect
the majority will be not less than 105, this
estimate being based on actual poll taken
within the last few days. In 1896 Ihe re
publicans carried the precinct for the re
publican eloctors.by a plurality of ninety
seven votes. .Apparently the cltltens of
Ltavooln are more Interested In the outcome
of the election than they were four years
age aad the fact that so many of them
hve voluntarily doclared for the repub
lican oandidatos Indicates beyond a shadow
of a doubt that the republican majority
will be exceptionally large.
Fasfonlata Watching Cloaely.
The oounty and congressional fusion com
mittee had men stationed at every regis
tering plaoe yesterday and a thorough can
vass was instituted to bring out the full
strength of the purty. It was especially
noticeable all over the city that many men
who have been known for years as dem
ocrats refused to declare their politics. It
Is generally conceded that when a man
suddenly refuses to announce his politics
that be is contemplating a change, and If
this reasoning holds good the republican
candidates will get the major portion of
the undeclared vote.
It Is believed that the next day's regis
tration will make a total of over (.600 for
the three days and that probably COO per
sons will swear In their votes on election
day.
Republican college students of Nebraska
will meet In this city next Monday after
noon at t o'clock to organtce a state league
of republican college clubs. The meeting
will be held under the auspices of the SI.

formed after election last year. It la now

Oscar H. Kraft of the editorial staff of the
Illinois Staats Zeltung spoke on the subject
of expansion before the German McKlnley
Republican club In Turner hall Inst night.
He ridiculed the Idea that the administra
tion was Inclined to Inaugurate an Imperial
istic policy. He showed the great contrast
between the standing army In Germany and
other European countries and the army of
the United States. In Germany the ratio
of soldiers to population is 11 to 1,000
civilians. In the United States there Is only
a fractional psr' of a soldier to 1,000 people,

The republican county central committee

Dearlng told them that "he would see

fathers and mothers, are you going to allow
such things to continue? Think of your
own little ones, then think of these poor
children, who are In tho bands of a lot

the children by taking the Institution from
them and placing It In the hands of a com

different from the work of an Insane

BEATRICE, Neb., Oct. 2S. To the Ed
itor of The Bee: I wish to make an ap
peal through your paper to the fathers
and mothers of Nebraska In behalf of the
unfortunate children at the Feeble Minded
Institute, Beatrice, Neb.
Fathers and mothers of Nebraska, you,
In whoso bands lies the destiny of all good
or evil that may come to the state of Ne
braska; you, In whose bands lies the power
to elect a competent or Incompetent man
to office; you, who have the power to vote
for a man of principle Instead of voting
for party reasons, which In Itself Is
deBplcablo, should exercise that right and
see to It that such an Incompetent man
as W. A, Poynter has shown himself to
be shall not bo placed In the gubernatorial
chair for another two years.
His management of the Feeble Mladed
Institute alone should be sufficient to pre
vent nls re-election. lie nas displaced a
first-class physician, one who understands
epilepsy In nil Its different forms, one
whose success along thts line Is undis
puted, and the result Is that the number
of spasms the children are having Is some
thing awful. Not only spasms afflict, but
cases of typhoid fever have broken out
and one child, Oscar Rosin, is said to have
diphtheria, all the result of bad sanitary
conditions. They are keeping things very
quiet and parents do not know there 1b so
much sickness there. You see, lncompe
tency Is the whole trouble nt the Feeble
Minded Institution and you, fathers and
mothers, who have the power, should rem
cdy It as quickly jia possible.
The Institute is supposed to. be a home
for the children, where they are to bo seen
and heard. Instead of being such the
children are to be put back out of sight,
because they aro so unsightly that they
hurt the feelings of some of the Institute
people who will be obliged to see them It
they are in sight. Now, fathers and moth
ers, are such people fit to be at an Insti
tution of this kind, where the poor un
fortunates arc reaching out hungrily for
loving kindness? No. Not one of you
but will answer no.

Notified of Son' Death.
DAVID CITY, Neb., Oct. 27. (Special.)
E. E. Edmunds received a telegram last
Tuesday from Sun Francisco Btatlng that
his son bad died Monday. The son, Anson
Edmunds, enlisted In Company G, Thirty
ninth volunteer infantry, on September 17,
18?9. and went with his regiment to the
Philippines. On October 13, 1900, Mr. Ed
munds received a letter from his son writ
ten at San Pablo, Philippine Islands, on
August 27, 1900, In which he said he was
well and expected to come home about
January 1, 1901. The news of the death
Is a surprise to Mr. Edmunds, as ho had
not been notified that his son was sick or
had even left the Philippines. The body
was shipped from San Francisco Wednes
day evening and Is expected to arrive here
seme time Monday.
HASTINGS, Neb., Oct. 27. (Special.)
City Attorney L. J, Capps has filed for
S. Rohrer a notice of appeal and bond
gainst the action taken by the Board of
upervlsors of Adams county In placing
$12,009 tornado Insurance on the court
house at the rate of J 1.60 per hundred.
hen the regular tariff for a term-of five
ars Is only 75 cents. The fuslonlsts
have the majority on the beard and every
thing Is run on fusion principles and
strictly for the benefit of the fuslonlsts.
At the opening of the meeting of the
board last week the fusion supervisors
tried to work a deal through which, It
carried out, would have deliberately robbed
Adams county of $705. They had recom
mended that the $17,004 Insurance upon
the court house be written by W. T. John
son, a former fusion member of the board,
at the rate of 3 per cent. This action waa
taken without having solicited bids or con-
ulted Insurance men upon the matter, but
ben It became known the people would
not stand for such loose and unbusiness
like methods and Insisted that they ad
vertise for bids. This they finally did,
hlch resulted In all companies agreeing
to take the risk at the 76-cent rate, and
thus the county was saved $705. But the
crooked deal did not end here, for Francis
Phillips and his followers on the board
had another scheme to work and they put
It In play at the eleventh hour. After a
motion to adjourn had been made and sec
onded Chairman Phillips announced that
e had placed $12,000 tornado Insurance on
the court house. The bills were Imme
diately presented for same and were al-
owed. Investigation proved that the $12,-
000 tornado Insurance had been let for
$1.50 per hundred, when the regular rate
for same Is only 75 cents, and that one-
half of the Insurance had been placed
ltb the same W. T. Johnson who tried
o hold the county up for $705 the forepart
of the week by having the fuslonlsts work
his fire Insurance deal through. It is
given out now that since this second slip
pery deal has been shown up In a clear
light Chairman Phillips has become
frightened and says he will not sign the
warrants, which are already drawn tor the
tornado Insurance. However, this will not
elp the fuslonlsts any, as their records
tand agalntt them.
Tho Insurance men of Hastings made In
quiry and thts morning learned from the
tate auditor that W. T. Johnson did not
have a permit to solicit Insurance. This
puts Mr. Johnson In a bad light and Into
critical position, as the Hastings In
surance mea will file a complaint against
him at once and prosecute him to the
fullest extent of the law.
