TAX-TITLE CASES.
A Card From Frank Ford ON That
Subject.

To the Editor of the Globe:
/ understand that certain ill-disposed per-
sons are circulating report to the effect
that am a ''taX-tite fend,' and certain
newspapers of the city have stat ed that rll-
mors to that effect were in circulation. I de-
sire to say that all the money I ever invested
in tax certificates was purely for the purpos
of investment, and never have acquired
and never intended to acquire the property
of any citizen by means of tax titles. On the
contrary, where the time for redemption had
passed in certain certificates which I once
held, ! voluntarily surren Tered my legal
rights In the premises to the proper owner, as
evidenced by the letter of Mr.. Kelly, herewith
submitted. I challenge the closest scrutiny
of my actions in this regard, or in any matter
affecting my character as an upright cit
lzen. The principal interest I have
ever had in ''tax titles has been as at
torney for those who have been perse-
cuted by these same 'fiends.' In the
words of Patrick Henry. eff that be treason,
let my opponents make the most of it,.
AS my character has never been tainted
with accusations of perjury, unprofessional
conduct or disreputable prabtices, 1 assume
that the above statement will be taken as cor
rect Very respectfully yours,
FRANK FORD.
Frank Ford Esq, Dear Sir-At yonr re-
quest cheerfully state that as attorney rep
resenting the Catholic Industrial school,
settled with You last year certain tax titles,
held by you against valuable property owned
by my clients, and upon which the two years
redemption had run. In the light Of recent
decisions of the courts respecting this class
of titles, / regarded your claim as serious
menace to my clients. In our settlement your

spectOr Nominated.
A meeting was held last evening at the
hall of the Northern Pacific Building asso-
citation, corner of Rice and Charles streets.
for the purpose of nominating candidate
for school inspector in the Third district of
the Fourth ward. There were but few
present, but they were enthusiastic in the
cause for which they assembled. The
meeting was called to order by William
Rodger, who nominated Alexander Adams
for chairman, proposition which was car
ried unanimously. T.. A. Cassidy was
made secretary. In taking the chair MI
Adams explained the reason of the small
attendance. There had been misunder-
standing as to the method of
calling the meeting and the proper
notices had not been given. In
it had been intended to notify the employees
of the st. Paul foundry of which Mr..
Adams is manager, but the one whose duty
it was to give the notice had forgotten it
until o'clock, when the men had gone
home. Mr.. Adams explained the object of
the meeting to be the nomination of a
school Inspector, that there had been no
nomination in the district by either party,
but Mr.. Athey was running indie
pendent He said they wanted
candidate who was identified with the in
terestS of the ward. Mr.. Rodger then pre-
sented the name of Frank Horn for school
inspector and the nomination was made by
reclamation. Mr.. Horn was called out and
| thanked the meeting for tine nomination.
saying he was proud of it. He explained
how in the contest for alderman In that
| district the position of school inspector had
been omitted. He proposed to do his best
and should stay to the end. He had been
going around for a few days with Mr..
Rodger and they had found very favor
able feeling among the voters Mr.. Adams
spoke again and said he had voted in the
city for twenty eight years and had never
known the people to have such an inditfer-
ent candidate before. He thought the
laborng men should have candidate and
remarked that in his opinion education did
not improve mans judgment, as there
were lots of men who could neither read nor
write whose judgment was better than that
of the graduates of colleges After some fur
ther informal talk the meeting adjourned.
| 1t had been expected that Maj. Newson
would be present and make speech, but
he did not materialiZe.
Frank Horn, the nominee, is shipping
clerk for Auerbach. Finch & Van Slyck, a

A Resolution Ihat states the Posi-
ton of the X. of L..
Statements have been made in newspa-
pers and in the talk of politicians on the
streets that have placed the Knights of
Labor in false position in the present
campaign. 1t has been said that the Knights
of Labor had ndorsed candidates, and am
bilious Republicans have claimed for their
nominees that the Knights mad indorsed
them, and would vote solid for Mai. New
son and Judge SchoOnmaker. These
statements have been made SO frequently
that the Knights have become tired
of them, as the organization is not POI
litical organization in any sense, and to set
the matter right they have passed reso-
luton to that effect A member of the
order said last night to GLOBE reporter
that the idea intended to be conveyed was
that every Knight wanted to vote as he saw
fit regardless of any candidates whom it had
been alleged the Knights were supportin G.
The following resolution was passed at the
last meeting of the Knights and was
brought to the GLOBE. marked with the
official seal of the order:

THE MAJOR SPOKE.
Mai. T. M. Newson next took the
platform amidst the shouts and cheers of
the audience. He told the oft repeated
story of his residence IN this city for nearly
half a century and during that time he
had never asked for nor received an office.
He thought that sometimes people
were born for peculiar ends. Here
in this city, quietly pursuing his literary av-
ocatiOn, he had heard, the mutterings of the
storm that was gathering and he thought
that his voice might have an influence in
quelling the rising tempest. He made the
start and he was taken up by the heart of
the people. Not by politicians, not by any
organization or clique. but by the people.
He thought the labor question must be met.
Statesmen must arise and fight in behalf of
the great power that had so long been lying
beneath CALLING bonds. He claimed that
he was a mediator and not an agltator He
entered into a burst of indirect self lauda-
ton and quietly appealed to the people to
elect him. He retired to his chair amidst
thunder of applause.
Gen. MacCarthy arose and said he would
not ask the people to stay long, but he had
a Jew words that he wanted to say. The
burden of his remarks was that the Repub-
licans had had the courage to call mass
meeting, and the fact that the opposition
had not disturbed it, was, in his mind, evil
dence that they had become intimidated
and afraid to show themselves. He praised
Maj. Newson's character, but said nothing
about his ability. He asked the reporters
to be particular and report all that he said,
and declared that the Republican city COM
mittee had hardly money enough to pay for
printing their tickets. but they would have
tickets printed and they would be peddled
at the polls all the same. He warned
his hearers against being influenced
by a great denunciation of the
Republicans and their candidates, which
he said would be sprung by the GLOBE be-
fore next Tuesday. He scored the silk
stockings for not allying themselves with
the workngmen in the movement and ex-
pressed himself as sure that the Republican
party would march to glory next Tuesday.
With three cheers for Maj Newson and
Henry Harity, the meeting adjourned.

form of the Dem OcraIic Party.

The platform of the Democratic conven-

years, and are now not only allied to the
workingmen's interests, but many of them
workingmen themselves, will bear printing
this morning when all over the country

sion of the feeling that has been manifested
