YANKTON. S. D., Oct. 5-(Special)- RE
publican committeeman are advised that a
man representing himself to be Judge f. E.
Dellenbaugh and sometimes calling himself
Pierson, is a fraud. He has been in the
state for two weeks or moro, and has been
conspicuous for his loud declarations that all
of the railroads are furnishing the repub-
lican speakers with transportation, and that
there is secret understanding between the
republican party and the railroads. This has
been campaign dodge in the interests OF
the populists, and the fraud will be arrested
at once II he can be found in the state. The
national committee wired Chairman Elliot
that they had no secret agents in their EN-
ploy, and knew no such man Pierson
or Dellenbaugh now in his state.
Chairman Elliott stated this morning that
a poll of the state, just made, shows that
a claim of 5000 as the minimum Mckinley
majority, would be a conservative estimate.
The poll of the Bryan vote shows a loss over
two years ago, and gain in the republican
vote.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct 5.-Not since
1876 has there been so much interest taken
in a state election as is displayed in the
contest that will be settled at the polls to-
morrow. In addition to the state issues
there are many county differences to be ad-
justed. AS a rule only democratic and re
publican tickets are in the field, but in some
cases there are populists and independent
candidates also. In the fight for important
state Offices the democrats will win by
large majoTities. Fifty thousand votes will
probably be cast, and of these II is esti-
mated that BloXham democrat, will receive
between 900 and $4,000 for governor.

nntc ut lincoln TOInN.


LINCOLN. Oct. Especial. And now
the free silver republicans have called q
state convention. An afternoon paper today
prints the formal call issued by order of a
conference" directed to +. l.. Rose who
presided for a convention to be held AT
Lincoln on Tuesday, October G, 1896, to
nominate a complete state ticket. The pre-
amble to Mr.. Roses illumination announces
that:
We, the republicans of the state of Ne
braska, reatirm our allegiance TO the
tme-honored principles of our party as
enunciatcd by John c. Fremont, Abraham
Lincoln and its illustrous founders. and
exemplifed by the public life and utter
ances of James "A. Garfield, John A. Logan,
James q. Blaine and other great leaders,
to the end that the great principles which
called for the grand old party of freedom
the face of the earth, and that chattel
slavery having been abolished by our
party, a more calling subserviency to the
moneyed plutocracy of foreign nations and
their tory allies on American soil, aided
and abetted by corporate greed, shall not
forever destroy government of the people,
for the people and by the people.
When questioned by a Bee representative
as to the strength of the boilers and probable
place of convening tomorrow. Mr. Rose re
tired into his shell, and had little to give
out to the press. He did state, however
that there were $50 republicans at the Lin
coin hotel caucus on Saturday but wild
horses could not have dragged the name Of
a single bolter from the padocied lips OF
the chairman.
