OMAHA. Oct. 2O.-The worid-Heraid
will tomorrow print the following cor
respondence, which is self-explana-
tory:
"St. Paul, Mimi. Oct. 90.
ITO the Editor of the World Herald:
81 have received your telegram read
ing: Hon Henry c. Caldwell, United
States circuit judge, St. Paul, MINI:
Will it be necessary for employees of
corporations under federal court re-
ceiverships to vote for Mckinley in
order to hold their places? Would you
order an investigation made of a COM
plant that a discharge has been made
for political reasons?
OMAHA WORLD-HERALD'
MY answer is: 1t viii not be neces-
sary for employees of corporations un-
der federal receiverships, over which
have any control, to vote for Mckinley
or Bryan or any other candidate for
political Office in order to hold their
places. would order an investigation
of a complaint that an employee of the
court had been discharged for political
reasons; and If the complaint, upon in
vestigation. appeared to be we'll
founded, / would at once order the
dismissal of every receiver or other
officer or employee of the court having
anything to do with the discharging
or threatening to discharge employees
for political reasons; and it would be
sufficient grounds for removing the re-
ceiver or general manager if they had
reA-on to believe that such unlawful
coercion was being practiced or threat
ened by any of their subordinate Of
ficers or employees and took no step
to investigate and suppress it. The
foundation stone of the Republic is the
constitutional right of every legal voter
to vote as he pleases. Any interfer-
ence with this fundamental right Of
the citizen by a court would be high
crime, deserving impeachment, and any
employee of the court who attempts
to coerce other employees of the. court
to vote otherwise 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
from the service of the court without
regard to his rank or position.

GEORGIA FUSION.
Democratic Committee Refuses to
Accept the PopuIists' Ultimntum-

ATLANTA. Ca, Oct 20-The Dem
ocratic executive committee of Geor-
gia today met for the purpose of con-
lished last week regarding fusion
electoral ticket.
The committee refused to accept the
Populists' ultimatum, which demanded
that the full electoral vote of the state
be cast for Watson for vice president,
but offered TO withdraw seven of the
Populists' electors, retaining six to
run with seven to be named by the
Democrats. This action was taken by
the Populist executive committe last
night, their communication being for
mally delivered to the Democratic COM
mittee today. It declares that
an inferential contract exists as the
result of the St. Louis convention by
which the Populists We're to support
Bryan in the event of the withdrawal
of Mr.. Sewall. 1t then proceeds to sx-
press the belief that it is the inten-
ton of the leaders of the Democratic
party TO defeat, and if possible, humil-
late Mr.. Watson.
The ultirnatum of the Populists re-
fusing to consider Mr.. Sewall as a
factor in the contest settled the mat
ter, and the following resolution, Of
Tered by Mr. Clark Howell of the ma
tional committee. was unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, The Populist state ex-
ecutive committee had made a propo-
sition which completely ignores fusion
by eliminating the candidacy of the
Democratic nominee for vice president.
Mr.. Sewall, and has cut off the Demo-
cratic committee from its further con-
sideration by fixing an arbitrary limit
which expires today. giving this com
mittee no opportunity for considering
q movement of proper fusion; there
fore, be it
Resolved. That the chairman Of the
Democratic state executive committee
appoint committee of five, of which
he shall be the chairman. to properly
present to the public the attitude of
this committee in its refusal 70 accept
the unjust ultimatum of the Peoples
committee. clothed as it is, in Often
sive and unbecoming language

then to North Carolina. The char
acter of his addresses will depend
on the result of my efforts. He will
wait to hear from me-"
IF Mr. Watson cannot be vice
president, will he accept cabinet
position?"
He would not if it was rendered
him. He is anxious that his party
should come out of this contest in a
manner that will reflect honor on
it. Mr.. Watson will enter actively
into the campaign for the election
OF Bryan, if such arrangements can
be made as will satisfy his people.
He thinks there must be many hon
CRADLE reasons for a fight rather
than a surrender, and that his party
must be recognized in this fight
or the fusion arrangements in the
different states will not be ratified
by the people at the polls. His per-
sistency in claiming the rights of
his party has placed him in a false
light. He will not be ignored"
By agreement with Mr.. Watson
the Democratic-Populist conference
at Atlanta today was ignored, Mr..
Washburn going direct to Chicago
from Thomson and Watson going
direct to Birmingham.

WILL EITHER
FIGHT OR WORK
Watson's Position In Regard to Bry-
an VIII De Made known Within
Twenty-Four Hours.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2o.-Candidate
Watson will either fight Mr. Bryan,
the Democratic party, and the flu
sion Populists with all his might,
or he will throw all his personal
effort and support to his followers
throughout the country toward
the election of the silver nominee.
This important and decisive step
viii be taken within the next "a
hours. 1t all depends on the final
negotiations between Mr.. Wa'tsons
representative and. Chairman
Jones, of the Democratic national
committee. George f. Washburn,
the Peoples party campaign man
ager in the west. returned hurried
" and unexpectedly from Mr.. Wat
sons home tonight and immedi-
ately asked for a conference with
Mr.. Jones at the auditorium.
The meeting was granted, and at
9 O'Clock Mr.. Washburn, as the
accredited personal representative
Of Mr.. Watson and Senator Jones
met in the latter's room at head
quarters.
Mr.. Washburn brought with him
an ultimatum in the form of alter
native propositions for submission
to the Democratic campaign com
mittee. and upon the acceptance of
one or another will depend the atti-
tude of Mr.. Watson during the
closing days of the campaign. Mr..
Washbnrn said that kilograms
would have to pass between him
and Messrs. Reed and Watson be-
fore the developments of the con-
ference could be made public, and
nothing would be given out until
tomorrow.
Just before going to the confer
ence Mr.. Washburn said to a re-
porter for the United Associated
Presses:
Mr. Watson would rather be vim
dicated in his own town, in his own
district, in his own state and in the
nation than be vice-president. His
southern pride is aroused, and the
people of Georgia are rallying
around him because he is a south
erner. The nomination he 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 demarss
recognition and vindication, or he
will fight.
Il believe that should Watson
issue thrilling proclamation to his
party to line up for Bryan, it would
be worth more than the efforts 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 I have undertaken the task
of bringing this about and believe
/ will be successful"
ibid Mr.. Watson show you his
letter of acceptance?
Yes. L read q copy. 1t is inter-
esting political reading. Mr.. Wat

today TO Alabama and speaks at
birmingham tomorrow night. From
there he will go TO Tennessee, and

Mr.. Hanna did not like the idea of

would stick to it, although he had re-

HASTINGS, Neb., Oct. 2O.-Hundreds of

Nellis had entered the store after dark
to post his books and found the negro
