On Republican partisan claims that
the war was theirs, the doughty con-
gresham had this to say:
1.-THE Republican party proposes to
claim the glorious achievements of
the war and play the same old game
they did for thirty years after the
war of the rebellion. This war was
inaugurated by Democrats and Popu.
lists, and the Republicans were forced
into it. After the war began all
parties were for it. There never was
such unanimity in congress. Not a
single war measure but received the
unanimous support Of house and
senate. / voted for everyone of them
without a single exception. l defy
any one to prove TO the contrary.
1.-THE Republican party has no prin.
ciple to start from, and as it must
conceal its support of corporations, it
resorts to lying and deception"

the Republican press Of the district

KEPT BURIAL MONEY
CAPT. LIPPMCOTT OF THE SEW
ENTH ACCUSED
By Private De Groot of Company I,
Pasadena, Who Insists ona
Court-Martial

The following story Of q new trouble In
the Seventh regiment is told by the San
Francisco Examiner of Saturday.
Almost on the eve Of the dissolution Of the
unfortunate Seventh California regiment
a wider future breach between some Of the
officers and the enlisted men is indicated
in vigorous but futile complaint Of dis
honesty filed by man in the ranks against
his company commander. The story deals
with the disposition made by the officer Of
money advanced by the government for I'M
dertaking and transportation expenses on
the remains Of a member of Company Of
Pasadena, and mentions Captain w. l..
Lippiacott as the chief offender.
On September 10th Private W. H. Ed
wards, jr., of Los Angeles, a member Of
Company l. died at the Preside Of typhoid
fever. pneumonia and bronchitis, contracted
at Camp Merritt. The remains were sent
to Downer's Grove, ILL.,, for burial. Pend
ing the arrival Of money from the father
Private J. l.. De Groot, member of Com
pany l, used for transportation expenses
SO Of the 500 allowed for the purpose by
the government, and borrowed $25 from
Captain Lippincott, who agreed to collect
from the government the $S5 allowed for
funeral expenses and to turn over the
money to De Groot. At the time Captain
L.ppincott, it is alleged, said that $40 might
be held out for the coffin.
Two weeks ago Captain L.pp.mcott told
De Groot, so the latter declares, that he had
got check from the quartermaster's de-
.partment for s25 and that It had to be made
cut to Porter 4 White or bearer. De
Groot visited the army headquarters in the
Phelan building, and there learned from the
clerk that by Captain Lippincott's own re-
ceipt the check had been for $35. Returning
to camp he asked the captain for a written
statement concerning the check, that he
might make his report to the father Of his
deceased comrade, Edwards. Captain
Lippincott then wrote statement Ike this:
1925 San Fra ncsco (Cal.) Sept. %, 1885,
Received from U. s. Government twenty
five and 00-100O dollars, money advanced to-
ward expenses Of William H. Edwards, jr.
w. l.. Lippincott."
With this receipt De Groot. accompanied
by two Red Cross officials. applied next day
to Brigadier General Miller, chief in COM
mand at the military camp. steno-
graphic record of the complaint was kept
for General Miller, who said he would sum-
mon Captain Lippincott before him. Several
days elapsed. Then De Groot again called
on General Miller and was informed that
the matter had been referred to Colonel
Berry and Lieutenant Colonel Schrieber of
the Seventh California. Last Sunday De
Groot saw Lieutenant Colonel Schreber
who told him that he ought to be satisfied to
get his money back. mo" replied De
Groot, II think the captain ought to be
court-ma rtialed."
Friday General Miller issued an order for
Captain D.ppincott to pay De Groot So
Yesterday Colonel Berry sent for De Groot
and had typewriter receipt for $40 ready

While Electric Light Fails He Gives

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. s-The COM

was most inopportune in many respects
II was dark sight, with the clouds threat

cherries, and last night it was exception
ally so; then the meeting had but lust COM
menced when the arc lights all went out.
and for an hour the only light In the room
was from half dozen torches. yet through
1t all the distinguished speaker held his
audience and gave them political light. MIR.
Castle spoke of his experience in congress.
his work on the pension committee. on
which he has been able to do SO much for
the people of his district, obtaining con-
cessions which his predecessor had been
unable to from the pension bureau. He
spoke of his success, in answer to a petit
ton from his constituents, in opening up
the mountain ranges to the bands Of starv-
ing sheep and cattle. Although this was
afterwards countermanded. the agitation
had been of incalculable benefit to the
sheep and cattle men of Southern Califor-
MIA He then spoke of the several bills he
had introduced.
He then gave the other side, and showed
his opposition to the Loud postal bill, he
ing the first congressman on the floor Of
the house to expose and show up the rot
.tenness Of the postal department, and
wound up with the statement that he had
done fairly we'll for new member"
Mr.. Castle devoted a few minutes to a
resume of the conduct of the war. He
charged the administration with having
degraded Schley and kept him In the back
ground, placing Sampson over him be-
cause Sampson was willing tool of the
administration. He attacked and showed
up the war revenue and bond ISSUE show
ing how they placed the burden on the
poor and let the trusts and corporations
escape. The speaker gave a most scathing
denunciation of the conduct Of the war.
do you want such an administration to
be supported" he asked. "If so, you must
vote for some one else to go to congress in
my place." On the railroad question he
stated: Huntington came to the Repub-
lican state convention, pushed the honest
men out and nominated a railroad ticket
from top to bottom"
