W. J. Linsley, Of Fremont. was the first

loved by N. +. Knox. who ran for con-
gre.s on the Populist ticket last election.
Knox rehashed statements made BY city
officials and newspapers 70 suit himself
and hsd made the crowd. which Was
strongly in favor Of the bond issue, thor
oughiy tired. when the city comptroller,
J. n. Carson. was introduced and made .
made short bat complete defense Of the
bond Issue. He was heartily applauded
by the crowd.
Knox then again stepped out and began
. haransue. when he was interrupted by
A. H. Foote, who cried ont that state
ments made by Knox were not true.
You are - liar" shouted Knox.
''Come up here if you want 10 debate the
question"

few remarks. and was howled down by
the mob. By this time all except the Pop

The Populists. however, were only
warmed up. and held love feast on the
square for two hours longer.
After the crowd had become thorou ghly

glish Shylocks discussed.
