WEDNESDAY EVENING OCT. 1e. 1895
In Is announced that Governor MI

IT Is announced that Governor Nc
Kinley, of Ohio, is about to make
speech in the Maryland canvass for the
republican ticket. This is exactly the
right thing for him to do. He is the
natural guide and oracle of the molly,
piebald coalition of republicans, mug
wumps, democratic boilers and negroes
who are now sweating and plugging to-
gether in the same political bed. There
should be joint debate between Nc
Kinley and German. Mckinley is
the orr ginator of the Infamous robber
tariff which bears his name, but was
perfected by Aldrich in the Senate.
That tariff bill stole the substance of
the people, and very naturally, in turn,
Mckinley stole from Aldrich the entire
credit or discredit Of the whole bust
ness, and coolly gave his own name to
the bill. Senator German, on the other
hand, fought the Mckinley bill vigor'
ously 10 the Senate. and also largely
contributed, by his wise counsel, to the
union of the democratic Senators who,
in 1894, wiped out this robber tariff and
substituted better one, with large le-
auctions in rates of tariff taxation.
There is another interesting point OF
difference between the two leaders.
Mckinley was q staunch defender OF
the Infamous Force bill of 1890. At
critical stage of this bill in the House
of Representatives, on the question
of abolishing or preserving the reput-
lican statute which permitted the use
of troops at the polls. Mckinley made
the impassioned and vindictiye rally
ing speech which cemented the waver-
ing republican column and secured the
final passage of the bill by the House
of Representatives. Neither Reed nor
Lodge himself, was half so effective in
this devilish work aimed at the people
of the South, as was Mckinley. On
the other hand, when the Force bill
went to the Senate it was the mastery
leadership and tactics of German who,
in spite OF republican majority, and
without one word Of help or encour-
agement from Mr.. Cleveland, throttled
and destroyed that infamous bill. The
advantage of such Joint debate would
be very great. The coalition OF repub-
licans, boilers and negroes now fight
ing German would be able to vie with
one another in applauding Mckinley
to the skies for his efforts in respect OF
both these republican measures. The
democrats would naturally applaud
their own gallant champion. The bat
tie would be joined with all the logical
results, and we should then see whether
the honored State of Maryland would
surrender to the horde of conspirators
who, hosting the black flag of personal
malice, wish to turn the State over to
the republican l,aders for the cam
paign of 1896, with Force bills and Nc
Kinley bills looming up in the future.

IT'S ABOUT TIME TO SETTLE
Talk of the Courts-A wife Accused
of Drunkenness Informal
lions Filed In Crlmi-
nal Cases.

BUTTE, March 9.-S. NJ. Nixon was up
before Judge Speer this afternoon on an
order TO show cause why he should not be
punished for contempt in refusing TO pay
ahmony to his wife. Afillavits we're read
from different parties TO the effect that
Mr.. Nixon has been leading n gay life
since his release from Jail, that he has
been riding n bicycle, attending many
dances, going TO shows and that he spends
money right and left. Mr.. Nixon filed
counter aflidavits to the effect that he
went to shows and balls on tickets pro-
vided by friends aud spent money bor-
rowed from j. X. Bordeaux. lie said he
went to California to sell a ranch belong
ing to his mother in order to raise money
TO pay on the alimony, but that Mrs.
Nixon spoiled all chances for n sale by
writing to California parties, warning
them against buying, as she had an inter-
est in IL.
An affidavit was read, which was
alleged to have been signed by Charles
Obertries, to the eiTect that he saw Nixon
gamble and saw him exhibit a roll of
bills. Then another affidavit from
Obertries was read in which he denied
ever having seen the other affidavit until
to-day and that he never signed il. o. NJ.
Hail then made another affidavit and said
that Obertries did make the first atli-
davit.
Mr.. Haldorn told the court that the case
had been before the court exactly two
years and it was so thoroughly ventilated
that the whole business had simply SIM
mered down to Mr.. Nixon's obstinacy and
refusal to pay the allmony or make an
effort to pay it. The matter, the attorney
said, should be brought to an end. The facts
showed that Mr.. Nixon was of good health.
travelled over the country. and did not
make single honest effort to obey tho
order of the court. He went to California
for the purpose of settling his mothers
property-thc same property which he was
accused of having fraudulently trans
ferred SO as TO deprive his wife of her
rights. HIS constant efforts have been to
stand out against the order of the court
and Mr.. Haldorn thought the man should
DO made to feel that the courts orders
had to be obeyed.
Mr.. Cotter said he had no apologies to
make for Mr.. Nixon, but so far as the
evidence before the court was concerned,
il was not shown that he had intentionally
disobeyed the order or that no had the
ability To pay.
Judge Speer said he would withhold a
decision in the matter for two weeks, but
intimated that Mr.. Nixon had better in
the meanwhile make an effort to pay at
least something on the overdue alimony,
amounting to $40. He said he was per-
fectly satisfied that Mr.. Nixon was able
to pay IT.
