We believe, further, that all fair

sufficient answer 10 the two charges

other charges. We will take them up
next week and give them as fair
treatment az we have the foregoing.

the suspicion that he was one Of the

House, Of 1873. Will he make his
identity known7 We would like TO
examine and see how he voted on
some Of the questions before those
memorable bodies. Certainly, if he
is an honest conscientious man, he
can have no reason to conceal his
identity. We are willing to assume
the responsibility Of our statements,
and he should be willing to do the
same. No irresponsible writer is en-

NOTHING more clearly shows the des-
peration Of the republican party than
the methods to which they resort to
get hearers for their speakers. Their
advertised political rallies are dis
NAL failures. They have but one re-
source by which to secure a respecta-
ble crowd, and that is by turning the
soldiers reunions into political pow
vows much to the disgust of a large
portion Of the old soldiers. These
reunions are not designed TO be po-
litical in character by any manner Of
means. They are designed, as
their name implies, as opportunities
for the old veterans Of the war to get
together and, around the campfire,
revive the memories Of the old-time
struggle--its hardships and it's dam
gers, the viclsitudes of camp and
field. AT all Of these reunions the
republican party has its campaign
speakers who make them occasions Of
political rather than military remmis-
cences. It is the only way they can
get a crowd to hear them. 1t shows
the desperate character of their cam
paign.

interested, we will state that there
has been no assessment "of 25 cents

about, nor can there be such a thing.
If the Journal cares to state things
as they are, the state central COM

iterates the charges against Mr.. VIII
Its in the Mcpherson Republican
TO which we replied some time
ago. While we desire 10 accord the
writer credit for honesty Of intention,
we should feel better satisfied Of this
II he would give us his name. The
signature "Citizen" is irresponsible
and not creditable to a writer who
expects to accord as fair treatment as
he might have a right to expect to re-
CeiVe
But let us examine the charges.
The first is that Mr.. Willis voted for
Samuel @. POmerOy FOX United States
Senator. "Citizen" quotes the record
found on page 237 House journal in
proof of this statement where Mr..
Willets' name actually stands re-
corded as he states. If he will turn
the leaf to page 23s he will find Mr..
Willis name also recorded as
voting for Mr. d. P. Lowe on the
same ballot. Very evidently there
is a clerical error in recording this
ballot, as will appear upon examine
tion. Mr. Willis certainly did not
vote for both Mr. Pomercy and Mr..
Lowe, Now count the names Of
members who are recorded as voting
for Mr.. Pomeroy and it will be seen
that there are fOrty-four-fOur more
than he received votes according to
the summary given. Count the
names recorded as voting for Mr.
Lowe and it will be seen there is the
precise number which he received.
IL requires the name OF Mr.. Willis
and every other man who is recorded
as voting for Mr.. Lowe to make the
number recorded in his favor in the
summary-thirteen votes. Can there
be any doubt in the mind of any fair
minded man where the error occurs,
or for which candidate Mr.. Willis
vote was Casti
After giving only the list recorded
as voting for Mr.. Pomeroy on page
297, "Citizen" says:
Mr.. Willis name II will be seen Is among the
number. That vote and the one next day In
Joint convention we're the only two taken. SO
much for Mr., Willis voting "SOr Mr.. Lowe first,
last and all the time" on the first day. The
friends Of Mr.. Love- as q matter OF course were
against Che election Of Mr.. POmerOy. The Issue
was POmerOy and the Legislature was divided
POmerOy and anti-POmerOy To say that
member was for particular candidate against
POmeroy "nrst, last and all the time, >" is simply
ridiculous, unless such member was either ldlOtic
or insane. II is absurd upon the face Of IL. It
was known after this fTst ballot TO all che oppO-
nents Of POmerOY that the only chance Of de-
teating him was to unite on some one candidate
against him. so with that end in view an anti
POmerOy caucus was held that night Of all the
members OF the Legislature opposed 10 PomerOy
and was attended by all the candidates In OppO-
sltlon, Messrs. Lowe, Phillips, Ingallsand others,
and all pledged their support to the caucus
nominee, whoever II might be, After balloting
until near midnight the choice finally fell upon
John j. Ingalls,, and all che members present
signed pledge to vote for him next day. Mr..
Willis was not present and he did not add his
name TO the pledge next day. as ne had the Op- |
pOrtuDity Of doing II he had so desired. When
The advocate., 1890-10-01

Phillips, Lowe and others voted for the day boz
fore we're no longer candidates and Mr. Willis
would have been compelled 10 take his choice OF
these two had II not been for the York expose
that followed.
But n Mr.. Willlts WAS such warm and con
aistont and persistent friend OF Mr. Lowe, how
does II happen that he WAS not al that anti
POmerOy caucus voting for his friend Lowe FIRST,
last and All the time, that he might have the
preference
"Citizen" admits that Mr.. Willis
voted for Lowe on the only ballot that
followed the one in question, but he
asks:
II Mr.. Willis was such a warm and consistent
and persistent friend OF Mr.. Lowe, how does II
happen that he was not at that anti-POmerOy
caucus voting for his friend hrst. last and all the
time, that he might have the preference2
We submit that Mr.. Willis was
not the man to be governed by eau
Gus rule. He always had the courage
Of his convictions, and he is the last
man who would permit a caucus to
dictate how he should vote. We sub
NIT further that the House journal
sustains our former statement, that
"he voted for Mr.. Lowe first, last, and
all the time" and no fair-minded man
who examines the journal will dis
pute this claim.
If any doubt still remains the fol-
lowing statement Of a fellow member
should settle that doubt:

me, In regard to how J. Il. Willis voted In the
year 1879 In reply will say; was member OF
that body, and sat at the same desk with Mr..
Wlllts, saw him rise In his place and cast his
vote for d. p. Lowe for U. s. Senator He also
emphahcally told me, during the contest, that
under no circumstances would he vote for =. O.
PomerOy. VALoRoUs BROWN.
Now for the second charge that
Mr.. Willis lodged the vote on the
bill to exempt mortgages from taxa
ton.
We stated that he was at home,
sick with the measles, at the time the
vote was taken. "Citizen," to dis
prove this, refers to the morning roll
call and finds Mr.. Willets recorded
as present. The vote in question
took place in the afternoon, and the
afternoon roll call shows that he was
not present, and he is not again re-
corded as present until March 8, and
then only at one roll call; and we re-
peat that one Of the periods of his
sickness was at this time. as is clear
ly shown by the following quotation
from his home paper, the Oskaloosa
Independent. Observe tho date. This
writer sneeringly refers to the fact OF
this sickness in language calculated
to cast oblOquy upon the claim. 1t
remains a fact, however, that Mr..
Willis was prevented by sickness
from being in his place in the House
during a good part Of the session.
Read and be satisfied:

AMERICAN GENEROSITY
EULoGlZED AND PROVED BY ANDREW
CARNEGIE.

An Effort TO Get u Pension for the Scotch
Widow Of n Union Soldier-If the Gov.
ernment Does Not Pay it He Will.
tFRoM A STAFF CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, October 6.-In his re-
cent speech at Dundee, Scotland, which
caused such profound sensation in Great
Britain. Mr.. Andrew Carnegie contrasted
the pensions paid to individuals by the
British government with those paid to the
rank and file of soldiers in this country,
glorifying the United States for paying out
S14O, 600, 900 year for that purpose. A day
or two after Mr. Carnegie was attacked BY a
Tory paper, which called attention to the
fact that the widow OF Scotchman who had
fought through the War of the Rebellion in
the Union army of the United States was
permitted to suffer in destitutlon at that
place without pension.
At the request ofs Mr.. Carnegie the
United States Consul, Mr.. Bruce, investi-
gated the case and found that the woman
referred to was the widow of John McEwan,
who was a private In Company H, Sixty
fifth Illinois Infantry. She was imme-
diately asked to sign an application for a
pension which Mr.. Carnegie brought with
him, with the necessary afidavits to support
the claim. He lie the meeting of the iron
masters at New York last Friday and come
over to Washington to lay the case before
the President. The latter at once forwarded
the papers to Commissioner Raum with the
request that they receive immediate atten-
tion.
Mr.. Carnegie said that if any legal tech
nicality was ound in the way of granting
the pension, he would deposit the necessary
funds in the Treasury and have them paid
out in the usual way, for he could not 60
back to Scotland and make another speech
in eulogy of the United States until that
woman was made an example of the benef-
cence OF this Government.

While the One and Only John Ward is AnX-
ious to Effect a Settlement
of All Differences.
WAITING FOR THURSDAYS MEETING.
Baseball Notes, Racing News and General Sporting
Intelligence. =

John NJ. Ward is in the city. The only
necessity for bringing Mr.. Ward, or the P.
L. or n L. before the public is the fact
that the presidents of the National League
meet on Thursday. Mr.. Ward was not in
vite6. Mr.. O'Neil, of this city, will be there.
They both met yesterday in the presence of the
writer:
Mr. O'Nen talked to the effect that he had
offered TO bet an unknown gentleman series of
bets about the local National League club. Mr..
O'Neil bet OF offered to bet follows: 500 that
the Pittsburg National League club will be in
Pit5sburC next year; 500 to S75 the same way:
SIOO to $50 the same way. Finally the offer or
bet of Mr.. O'Nen came down to 500 to IS
that the National League club would be in
Pittsburg next year. 1t is fair to say that no
acceptances of MIR. O'Neil's bets showed up as
far as the writer's knowledge is concerned.
When Mr.. O'Neil was talking as he is above
quoted, Mr.. Ward was present and asked MIR.
0'Neil about his romancing. Mr. O'NeIl re-
piled that his club and its fnaucia- ending
proved that there was no romancng in him.
This story of baseball i only GOOD because
of the fact that John NJ. Ward positively stated
that the p. l. was prenared to talk business
with the n. l.. people. During conversation
with the writer. Mr.. Ward said: /" The P. L.
has circuit now, but the only way to settle
matters is to have a common understanding.
We, the ?. L., are here to stay and
so are the \. l.. people. 1t is a loss
TO both of us to fight and let US end
it. But if we cannot make a fair settlement
why we'll fight That's ali there's in it. l want
a settlement, and settlement can be made

We want to sustain the popularity of the ma
tional game. l hope that some of our repre-
sentatives will be invited to the National
League meeting at New York on Thursday.
There is now a chance of everything being set
tied. but if National League representatives
