Major Larrabe also had this view that the present difficulty with the renegade Utes, especially as to their desire to have a scrap with United States soldiers, was largely exaggerated. He also took occasion to scout the Idea that an armed band of Cheyennes would join the Utes In resisting the troops. '.They have had enough flght ' Ing In the past and are now peaceful to a degree and I do not look for any outbreak from sjjy quarter." Major McLaughlin, who recently has lieen among- the runaway ,T.'tes, said he did not take any stock In the story that tlio Indians had fired . upon United States scouts. ' "At the time I left their camp In Wyoming." said Major Mclaughlin, "the only unlawful act these Indians had committed had been to kill certain game out of season. It Is true I could only In duces .small per oentage to return to their homes, but those who refused to return were stuhbornly seeking new homes us far from the white man as they could get and find subsistence.

PROSPERITY FORTHE FARMERS l onrtiimaa Pollard Presents a Kerr Flaares on rreTallln Con ditions In the state. PLATT8MOUTH. Neb.. Cct. 31.-(Specl Tflegram.)-The Parmele theater In this city was crowded this evening. th occasion being the only big- republican rally held in this city during the present campaign. whk h wns ably addressed by Senator Bui- kett. Congressman Pollard ard ethers Much enthusiasm prevailed and the speakers were frequently and heartily applauded. Mr. Pollsrd said. In part: From the statistic- r, we have seen that whl e the m nufautu er hat pr filed as well us tut- mcr, ...,e..0u in vari.iua en- terprlses, yet the prosperity that has come to them has not equaled by h large per cent that which has come to the farmers of the country. I have also been lntereMed to know how the prices of farm products have compared with the increase of production. I have figures along this line beginn ni with the yeeir 1S94. I remember that year I especially, because it was the flret year that , I put In a crop myss-lf. Up until that year . I had been in college nine months of the I year. Of course I had been home in the 1 summer and helped on the farm, but that was the first yesr that I put In a crop In the spring, cultivated It myself and har vested In the fall. That was the yes.r of the great drouth. The price of corn at the elevator at Nehawka averaged about i) cents per bushel throughout tne year. Some farmers paid as high as GO cents a bushel for corn to finish feeding their cattle. The very next year we produced one of the big gest corn crops In our history. What wns the effect on prices of this tremendous yield of corn? 1 find that the average price of com in Chicago for thai year about half of what it was the previous year. " That was the effect of one big corn crop during the democratic tinier. We had a larger crop again the next year and the price went still lower. Since the republicans took con trol the price of corn has been gradually going up in spite of the fact that the pro duction of corn has Increased wonderfully. The reason why the Increased production of the last few years has not decreased the prices as It did In democratic tims is the fact that the people engaged In Wther lines of Industry have been prosperous, too. Of the wealth produced every year we con sume o-er seventeen time as much as we ship to other countries "With protection ; to all clauses w are all being lieneflted and are able to buy each others products. The 1 republican party stands for reform In tariff i schedules whenever needrd. but It Insists that the protective principle must be re tained.

He tohU Ms eiidors that the only way they could support (ho president and Mr. Shetdon was to eloct a republican legislature, which In turn would elect Hon. Norrls Brown to the United Slates senate to assist the president in carrying out his reform measures, snd that would also help Mr. Sheldon write Into law the reforms ad vocated by Mr. Sheltfon and his party In Nebraska.

ITS RATES HIGHER THAN PRESENT ONES Rfr la Lnnkrr Pralrrn' t'nse Its Rnnki nd Paprri fr Examination. (From a S'taff Coi-rrspomlent.) L1NXOI.N. Nb.. Oct. 81.-(Speclal Tele gram.) After proving conclusively that It Is Impossible to enforce the old maximum freight rate law, George L. Sheldon, re publican candidate for governor, before an audience which filled the Auditorium to night showed plainly the talk of the dem ocratic candidate, Mr. Shallcnberger, re garding this law Is pure buncombe. Grant ing that Mr. fthalleiibei-ger could enforce the dead law, Sheldon showed the freight rate on a car of cattle from Alma, the home of the democratic candidate, to Omh(i would be Increased tl.70 on a car. The rate now is 15 cents per 100 pound", making I2S.50 a car,. which Is now $3.70, lehs than under the maximum freight rate law which Mr. Bhallenberger and Mr. Abbott, democratic candidate for attorney genera!. 'want to enforc?. The speaker mentioned a half doien towns In the state as exam-pl- where the rate would lie Increased over present rates If the maximum freight rate law were to be resurrected the Increase being from J1.B0 to Jo.55. The meeting was one of the most en thusiastic held here. The Auditorium was comfortably filled and the closest attention wss given the speakers. The old soldiers, headed by their drum corpH, marched to the hall In a body as did the University band, at the head of several hundred en thusiastic rooters yelling for Sheldon. Judge M. B. Rwse presided and Ned Brown, candidate for reprexentatlvc. de livered a short address as a curtain raiser and he started the enthusiasm. Sheldon was greeted with prolonged cheers when he entered the hall and was applauded frequently during Ills speech. He compared freight rate In Nebraska with the rates In other states, showing by the, railroad tariffs that rates here are higher than In the neighboring states. He reviewed the platforms of the two parties and pledged the carrying out of the repub lican promises If the republican candidates were elected. He appealed to the rank and tiles of all parties to suport that party which had a definite plan outlined for the relief of the people. George W. Berge and other populists were Interested listeners at the meeting. Linber Papers la Coart. Judge Sinclair, conducting the state's case against the Nebraska Lumber Dealers' as sociation, made formal application this morning to compel Secretary Crltchflc Id to bring Into court all the correspondence on file In his office relating to the association. The entire morning was spent in urgultis this motion and Just before noon Judge Post ruled the correspondence should he produced. At the afternoon session when Mr. CritchBeld shom-ed up with his letter book and numerous letters and papers At torney Trexler, for the defendants, ob jected to the introduction of any of the letters. This also was overruled by Judge Post. Then Judge Sinclair asked for time in which to look over the correspondence to prepare himself in the case. "You have had several months to get ready for this case," taterponid Attorney Courtrtght, "and you luve been Invited to go to the office of the secretary and ex amine these papers. If the state has not Its case prepared It Is the fault of tlje state and there Is no reason why we shcu!d be delayod here for you to make up your caae." v Judge Slnclajr then Introduced til the letters and papers, and he was having the reporter mark the exhibits when Judge Post Interposed. He said such proceeding would take entirely too much time and the only thing for the attorneys to di would be to get together on what letters they wanted to Introduce. A recess was taken and with the assistance of Secre tary Crltchfleld an examination of the let ters was begun. In objecting to the Introduction of the letters Mr. Baldrlge and the oMier attor neys for the defense argued that the Junkln law did not mean that local corporations should be Inspected snd their records und letters made public, but that It referred to the inspection of foreign corporations and associations doing business In Ne braska. The same ground gone over yes terday In this argument was covered to day, Judge Post holding the state haj n right to demand the presentation of the correspondence of the secretary and the members of the association. Nothing fur ther was done. Northwestern Could Have Enjoined. Officials of the . Northwestern Railroad company In Nebraska take exceptions to the publication In The Eee of un article stating the raon tbU road did not en.

Neb., Oct. 31. -(Special.) William J. Bryan finished the first of his three days' whirlwind tour through north ern Nebraska In a speech which was de llved to a well filled Auditorium here to night. During the day he covered In his special train the territory along the North western line between Lincoln and Norfolk. He Is spending the night In Norfolk and will leave early In the morning for the west. His tour will comprise the Third snd Sixth congressional districts. Mr. Bryan Is accompanied on the special train by A. C. Sh'allenberger, fusion candidate for governor. The fuslonlsts have made a frenxled effort to gain in the Third congressional district, this being the third aprearance here of Mr. .Rhallenberger who opened his cam paign In Norfolk. The prospects, however, seem to Indicate a majority of about $,000 for Judge Boyd. WAHOO, Neb., Oct. 81.-(Snecial.)-The Bryan special arrived on time today at 11 a. m. and left st 12:15. A fair slsed crowd turned out. A. C. Shallenberger opened the speaking followed by Mr. Patrick, then W. J. Bryan made a few closing remarks. They spoke from a lumber wairon. FREMONT, Neb.. Oct. Sl.-(SpecIal Tele gram.) Hon. W. J. Bryan's special train was a little late In arriving here and the Larson opera house was filled from the stage to the back row of the gallery before the speakers arrived, A crowd of Normal students amused themselves by giving their yell for Brysn. President Clemmons and other things while waiting for the speak ers. Hon. A. C. Shallenberger was first Introduced by D. V. Stephens snd spoke for about twenty minutes on state issues and the five leading planks of the demo cratic platform. Two.ccnt passenger fares and the freight rates were insisted upon. He closed by Introducing Mr. Bryan, who was received by hearty applause. The lat ter wss In good voice and held the closest attention of his audience. Including a great many who were standing for a half hour. He began by complimenting Mr. Shallen berger and urging upon his sudience the importance of supporting the state ticket. Referring to railroad rates he said that he had Just paid a freight bill of $27 on some bronzes he had purchased In Japan from Omaha to Lincoln, the freight from Toko hama to Omaha 7,500 miles, 1.4m of which was by rail was only $55. He thought something needed regulating. The larger part of his speech was a good-natured criticism of the republicans for following In the footprints of the democrats. Presi dent Roosevelt was praised today by the same people who accused him (Bryan) of most everything ten years ago and the president was today taking a position far more radical than he advocated al that time. "I have Just come from Indiana,'' said the speaker, "and tha republican party Is split up. They are conducting a sort of double campaign. Senator Beverldge was going about ringing a bell demanding a re striction of the right to accumulate mfl Hons and rousing up the people to their situation, and Vlre President Fairbanks Is following him with H. bottle of chloro form to put them asleep again." He spoke also briefly on the tariff, Insisting that no revision of It could "be expected unless the democrats came In power and closed with an eloquent appeal faf-support for the leg islative and congressional tickets.

Oct. a.-f Special Tele gram.) That the schemes of the large cat tle men In opposing Congressman Klnkald and In support of Mr. Sliumway for con gress In the Sixth district are falling flat Is forcibly shown iu the way the literature they are sending out is being turned down hy the people. It Is a well known fact thut the large cattle tnen are financing and managing Mr. Shumway's campaign on ac. count of their enmity to the homestead bill Introduced in congress by Judge Klnkald and the unquestioned loyalty to the small stockmen, farmer and homesteader. It is significant that the chairman of the demo cratic committee In the Sixth district la sn active member of the Live Stock associa tion. Not daring to take issue snuarely on the homestead bill, which has done much to make Judge Klnkald so popular with the people, Mr. Shumway's committee is re sorting to subterfuges. o Coal at Narth Platte.
