what the people are Saying.

What the People are Saying.
The people have become so absorbed IL
the 5. A. p. row that the prospective
nomination of Blaine is almost lost sigh
of.
Now, looking back to the last county
election, one year and half ago, the
people can appreciate the full meaning
OF the conspiracy that placed Judge King
on the bench, and put in power one OF the
most corrupt local political rings that
ever rioted in official positions In our city
and county.
The Arkansas Pass r. r. receivership
was the issue, ane in order to elect Judge
| King the most corrupt and high handed
measures were reSorted to.
Hundreds of imported Mexicans were
| colonized along the line of the road in the
| judicial district and voted like so many
cattle on election day. Mayor Callaghan
| as chairman of the democratic county
executive committee combined with the
Snide republican committee headed by
Mr.. Harry Terrell, to endorse the re-
ceivership ticket; the county and city
officials all pooled on the ticket, but the
people, the honest, unpurchasable voters
of the county might have succeeded in
spite of all this but for the Doodle that
was put up by the railroad people.
The firstexplosion of this receivership
business took place yesterday in the shape
of charges of very serious nature
against one of the receivers and the audi
tor, but this is only the beginning of the
end of this business.
The people want it all to come out
Who put up the $4,000 to conduct the
election campaign, who paid and who
didn't pay.
The people naturally ask, what has the
master in chancery, Judge Fleming, and
the district judge, Judge King, been
about while all this rottenness was under
their noses?
There are hundreds of honest men who
hold accounts against the s. A. P; is it
fact that they have been kept out of their
money while the receivers and officials of
the road have been rioting and squander
ing the money that should have been APP
piled to paying honest debts?
The people can now rest assured that it
will ali come out-both sides.
When the ballot box can be prostituted
and stuffed with the ballots of an alien
population, purchased for corrupt pur-
pose, the people may expect just such re-
suits to follow as is now being illustrated
in the Arkansas Pass receiverShip bust
ness.
Could the story of the Arkansas Pass
road be told, this enterprise, that was
warmed in the bosom of the honest, gen.
erous people of our city,-what mass of
shame and corruption it would disclose.
There would appear in the picture some
striking contrasts.
The gigantic schemes for robbery put |
up by the men who manipulated the en-
SPECTATORS; the army of unpaid de- |
the host of well paid lawyers; and |
stuffed with the ballots Of hundreds |
ignorant Mexican Indians, in order to
sQbvert and overthrow the will of the
stung the bosom that had warmed it into
life.
The wreck has come at last. And it is i.
to be hoped that a better order of things
will come out of the row.

Blodgett, H. O. Young, Charles W. Wells and D. N. Ferry.
 Hon. Thomas w. Palmer, president of the national commission of the worlds Columbian commission in response to loud calls made an address in which he pre- dicted that Michigan would bs redeemed this year. A platform was adopted ap- proving the principles and record of the republican party, forstelling for it fresh triumphs, endorsing the work of the Fifty first congress, declaring that i've will do all in our power to uphold and sustain the victories already won for the grand triple policy of protection, reciprocity and honest money; and demanding effective legisla- tion by congress to secure the integrity and purity of national elections" The platform concludes as follows: eve heartily approve the force full, fearless and dignified policy of the ad- ministrstion of President Benjamin Harri son, who has been so able assisted in all his ssgacious and loyal endeavors by that noble patriot and statesman, James G. Blaine, in the promulgation of true and progressiv. American principles. While the republi- cans of Michigan recognize the sterling worth and ability of our distinguished fel- low-citizen, General Russell A. Alger, whose claims to recognition as 8 presi- dentisl standard bearer have been familiar to this people since his name was first presented to the con- vention at Chicago in 1888, we can safely leave to the judgment of the representa- tives of the party at Minneapolis in Jun. next the selection of a leader who will head the triumphant march of our hosts tu victory at the polls in November, pledging to the nominee of that convention our un- qualified cooperation and unswerving de- votion."
 The reference to General Alger's candi- dscy was received with the greatest en. thusissm and the resolutions were adopted wish cheers. The convention then sd- iOurned

Nebraska Democrats Have . Bitter
 Contest for the Election Of Dele-

 The Boyd Faction victerio us-The
 Delegates Unpledged-Free Coinage
 of silver Voted Down.
 ONAHA, Neb., April 1.-The fight be. tween the Boyd and Martin factions in the democratic state convention was continued all night before the committee on ere dentisls. On test vote the Boyd faction came off victorious by Q vote of 300 to 97. A resolution endorsing Cleveland and in- structing the delegates to the national convention to vote for him was presented. An amendment was made eliminating the instruction of the delegation and the resolution was then passed. The convention ratified the nominations for delegates made by the congressional districts, and then selected the following: Governor Boyd, Tobias Cas- tor, Judge w. H. Thompson and Milton Doolittle.
 The committee on resolutions reported a platform which declares "steadfast adher encs to the declarations and principles of the platform of 1884, and in the message to congress by Grover Cleveland in which this nation was aroused as never before to @ sense of the great injustice done to the American people by the high protec tion war tariff laid upon them;" denounces that most infamous law, the Mckinley act; favors liberal pensions to disabled veterans and their dependent widows and orphans, and fsvors the regulation of rail | roads and railroad rates by the state. Congressman Bryan offered a resolution favoring free coinage of silver. Immedi ately the convention became turbulent MT. Bryan advocated his resolution, de clsring it to be good democratic doctrine. He was supported by th. delegates from the western part of tht state, where the independents are strong est, but the other prominent leaders weT, | against him. After hot debate lasting three hours the resolution was defeated bJ | a vote of 229 to PAT. The silver men made | 8 rush for the stage and shrieked that they were beaten by fraud. Fifty men wer, | struggling on the platform at one time but finally quiet wss restored and the re suit a announced WAS verified. After th, selection of alternatss the convention sd 1 journed.

 Pany in Canada.
 TORONTO, April IA special from London says: The Grand Trunk report was issued to-day. The directors much re- gret that the snticipations of advances likely to be derived from the last harvest were not more speedily realized. The lum- Der trade was seriously interfered with by the collapse of the South American de- mand. Local traffic was continuously dis appointing. The expected development of business consequent upon returning pros- perity was greatly delayed, but the long hsped for improvement appeared to have begun. The directors confidently anticipate satisfactory weekly increase for the next six months. There appears also to be @ better disposition among American companies to maintain rates. In a noteworthy passage the board say there is no necessity for further exten- sions Every effort must be made to reduce expenses by consolidating the different di- visions. The way has been prepared for legislation at the next session incorporating all the lines in the Grand Trunk system in Canada

Tho Petition Refused.

BOSTON, April 14.-The railroad cem- missionsss have decided adversely to the petitionsof of the Interstate Street Railway company, which asked leave to cross the Old Colony tracks in Attleboro at grade with it's electric cars. The decision says: In order to justify the crossing of a rail- way by an electric street railway at grade, at least in 8 case where the amount of travel and the consequent hazard are a great as here exist, 1t is not enough to show that there is public necessity, how ever strong, for the electric railway. It must further appear that there is no prsc- tical way by which grade crossing can reasonably be avoided.
