to Voters.
CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 20.-Right Rev.
George F. Seymour, Bishop of Quincy
diocese of the Episcopal church, Quincy,
Ill. has come out with an open letter
urging voters to stand by the cause OF hon.
est money. The address is on the lines OF
Archbishop Irelands manifesto.
Bishop Seymour has not partic' 'pated in
political discussion before for thirty
years.

the leaders realize what they are doing in
stirring up sectional strife and arraying
the East against the West. He deprecates
the attack upon the courts, and urges that
everv good citizen come to the support of
this bulwark of their liberties.
In discussing the money question he
saws it has always been trick of unscrupu-
lous monarchs to rob their subjects by q

believe our Government would be guilty of
so heinous an offense.

YINDICATIOA OR FIGHT.
Candidate Watson Causing the Bryan
Managers UueaSiness


Managers Uueasiness.
CHICAGO. Ill, Oct. 90 = Candidate
Watson will fight Mr.. Bryan, the Demo
cratic party and the fusion Populists with
all his might, or he will throw all his per-
sonal effort and the support of his follow
ers throughout the country toward the
election of the silver nominee. This i'm
portant and decisive step will be taken
within the next twentyfour hours. 1t all
depends on final negotiations between Mr.
Watson's representatives and G airman
Jones of the Democratic National Com
mittee.
George F. Washburn, the Peoples party
cam paign manager in the West, returned
hurriedly and Unexpectedly from Mr..
Watson's home tonight and Immediately
asked for conference with Mr.. Jones at
the Auditorium annex. The meeting was
granted, and at 8 o'clock Mr.. Washburn,
as the accredited personal representative
of Mr.. Watson, and Senator Jones met in
the latter's room at headquarters. Mr..
Wash burn brought with him an ultlmatum
in the form of alternative propositions for
submission to the Democratic campaign
com mittee, and upon the acceptance of
one or other will depend the attitude OF
Mr.. Watson during the closing days OF the
campaign.
Mr.. Washburn said that kilograms
would have to pass between him and
Messrs. Reed and Watson before the de-
velopments OF the conference could be
made public and nothing would be given
out until tomorrow. Just before going
to the conference Mr.. Washburn said to a
reporterf the United Associated Presses !:
Mr. Watson would rather be vindicated in
his own town, in his own district in his own
State and in the Nation than be Vice-Pres-
dent. His Southern pride is aroused aud the
people of Georgia are rallying around him be-
cause he is Southerner.
The nomination ne received at St Louis was
forced upon him to unite our forces, and being
at the head OF larger force than that which
elected Lincoln he demands recognition and
yindication or he will fight. / believe that
should Watson issue thrilling proclaim alton
to his arty to line up for Bryan it would be
worth more than the effort OF a thousand
speakers. The danger to-day is the stay-at-
home Populists. His pen could bring out the
last man, and now that all others have given
up have undertaken the task of bringing this
about and believe will be successful.

A delegation of Republicans from the
Michigan Peninsula called on Chairman
Hanna to assure him that Major McKin-
ley would come to the straits with from
10000 to 5000 majority.

the same day, but he good naturedly said
he had the right of way and would stick
to it, although he had received kilograms
suggesting a change OF day for the Re-
publicans.

To the Editor Of the Worl Herald: l have re-
ceived your telegram reading: "Hon. Henry
C. Caldwell, United States Circuit Judge, st.

ployes OF corporations under Federal curt re-

CATION made of a complaint that discharge
has been made for political reasons?
"OMAHA WoRLD-HERALD.
NY answer is: 1t will not be necessary for
employees of corporations under Federal re-
ceiyerships, over which have any control, to
vote for Mckinley or Bryan, or any other can
dIdate for political office, in order to hold
their places. | would order an investigation
of a complaint that an employe of the court
had been discharged Tor political reasons, and
il The complaint, upon investigation, appeared
to be well founded, would at once order the
dismissal of every receiver, general manager
or other officer or employe of the court having G
anything 10 do with dlscharging or threaten
ing to ischarge employees Tor po. itical reasons.
And 1t would be sufficient grounds for remoy-
ing the receiver or general manager if they
had reason to believe that such unlawful CO.
ercion was being practiced or threatened by
any of their subordinate officers or employees
and took no step TO investigate and suppress it.
The foundation stone OF the Republic is the
free suffrage of its citizens. 1t is the constitu-
tional right of every legal voter 10 vote as he
pleases Any interference with this funda-
mental right of the citizen by court would
be high crime, deserving impeachment and
any employe of the court who attempts to CO.
cree other employees of the court to vote other
wise than according to their own Judgment
and free choice by threats of discharging them
from the service of the court or by the use of
any other illegal means, would merit and
would receive instant dismissal rom the
service of the court without regard 10 his rank
or position. HENRY G. CALDWELL,

withdraw the remedial bill. He said
he did so on the grounds Of obstruction.
1t would be necessary to 60 into supply

not be further proceeded with. He did
not say that it would not be taken mp
after the supply was granted. He
moved that the committee rise and re-
port progress.
Laurier. in reply, denied obstruction
and showed that the opposition had
amended and perfected every clause Of
the bill that was passed. The govern
ment had large majority and ought to
have introduced the bill earlier and
put it through. Whose fault was it, he
asked, that the crisis took place in the
cabinet, that ministers resigned, and
that the bill was not gone on with
until after two months of the session
had passed. It was not the fault Of
the opposition but Of the government
and he was prepared to leave to the
Judgment of the people the charge of
obstruction laid against him and hia
