To Go on Sale This Morning.
Laustrip Convicts Himself.

A strange suit was prosecuted yesterday
in a local justice court, and 1t is not improb-
able that the plaintiff will be prosecuted in
the district court for a confessed fragrant
violation of the Iowa election laws. The
suit was brought by p. p. Laustrip against
r. N. Whittlesey, who was chairman Of
the democratic city central committee last
year. Laustrip alleged that Whittlesey owed
him 81. so, and when he went on the witness
stand to support his claim he frankly ad-
mitted that the debt was created at the
last election and grew out OF an arrangement
by which he was to cast his vote for the
democratic nominees. His explanation and
testimony relieved Chairman Whittlesey OF
any responsibility of the crime. Laustrip
had been placed on duty as a special police
man at one of the polling places, and during
the day he got very drunk. Just before the
polls closed 1t was discovered that he had
not voted and Whittlesey called upon him
for an explanation. Laustrip said he had
made deal with another fellow by which
he would lose $3.50 IL he voted, but init
mated that II Whittlesey would advance the
same amount he would vote anyhow The
proposition was declined. A few moments
later another man approached Laustrip and
inquired the reason of his delay in voting
and was given the same answer. This
man told him to go ahead and
vote and he would get his $3.50. Laustrip
followed his advice and voted the democratic
ticket. The next day he presented his bill
to Whittlesey and was cordially told 10
go to Texas. Laustrip glibly testified to the
foregoing facts while on the witness stand.
The court informed him that as he was try
ing to commit a crime when he was offering
to vote according to Whittleseys dictates
he could have no just claim upon him. The
case was thrown out of court
The election law declares that any person
offering to sell his vote, or trying to in
luence another by the offer of any consider
alton. or who agrees to refrain from voting
shall be deemed guilty of a felony and upon
conviction shall be sent to the penitentary.

JOHN r. IRrsTs WARM SPEECH.


Eloquent Democrat DcnOunccs she
Brynnitc Assault on Liberty.
III all OF the democrats in the United
States could have heard that speech they
would feel that they were traitors alike
TO their country and their party II they
voted for Bryan and his populist heresies,"
was a remark made by a democrat at the
close OF the speech made by John p. Irish
In the Odd Fellows temple last night.
Every seat was occupied and II the room
had been three or four times as large
there still would have been insufficient room
to accommodate those who desired to see
and hear. In the audience were many peo-
pie from Omaha. One motor train load OF
about fifty men and women entered the
hall in body. w. H. NJ. Pusey called
the meeting to order and Emmett Tinley
made a ten minute Introductory speech.
Mr.. Irish was given a dignfed reception
when he arose to speak.
He began by Offering a tribute to Grover
Cleveland, whose genius and patriotism was
carrying the country through a crisis as
dangerous and fateful as that which pre-
vailed when the immortal Lincoln stood
at the helm of the national ship OF state
and guided II safely through the fear
ful storm. He denounced the populist plat
form adopted at Chicago as outraging every
principle OF democracy. 1t advocates nulli-
ncation, he declared, and then showed the
slight difference between, notification and
secession. Notification demands the right
Of the state to ignore the power OF the
federal government to enforce it's decree,
but at the same time to get all OF the
benefits of the protection OF the government.
Secession simply demanded the right to
the same privileges and to go out OF the
union to enjoy them. It was left, he said,
for the popocratic platform adopted at Chi
cago to do what secession failed to do.
His repudiation OF that platform was the
most powerfully eloquently portion Of his
speech Mr.. Irish began his speech shortly
after o'clock. and 1t was nearly IL when
he concluded. His voice was somewhat
husky from excessive speaking, but his in
tense interest in the outcome OF the great
presidential contest and his earnest con-
viction that the success OF the populist prin-
ciples mean the ruin OF American prestige
and prosperity carried him frequently to
great heights OF eloquence
Five minutes OF his speech he devoted
to the men who issued the scurrilous cir
cular inviting the hoodlum. element to break
up the meeting. II was a most scathing
rebuke.
