representative and that he ought to
have $4,000. Boyce replied that this was
all nonsense, that he had already Sc
cured four votes at an average Of $500
each and another for $500 Boyce then
said he would give SO, 500; 81 900 at that
time and $l.l9O the next day. Camp
Dell said to .Boyce:
What do YOU want Otis. to do if
your proposition is accepted? Royce re-
piled that he would want him TO write
letter TO the president to the effect
that he would vote for Hanna.
Boyce then wrote telegram direct
ed to President Mckinley, reading:
For the best interests of Ohio and the
Republican party. 1 viii cast my vote
for Nj. a. Hanna for senator for the
short and long terms"
At the next meeting the telegram, or
rather a copy OF it, was shown to
Boyce, and he was told that Otis had
finally consented. and that there was
the telegram. Campbell said 10 Boyce:
You viii now pay S1,75O and 1850
when you reach Columbus, whereupon
Boyce counted out $3.50 more.
Campbell said: This does not make
Sl.75O."
Boyce replied: You have already got
$1,000, and this makes the 81, 1907
Capbell replied: u thought the $1,000
was my fee"
PROMISED MORE.
Boyce replied that he could not give
more at that time, as he could not let it
cost more than $500 at that time, al
though otis was to get ST, 500 more when
Hanna was elected. Mr.. Campbell then
demanded a receipt, which Boyce did
not care to give, although a receipt
was finally written for the s1,750 al
ready paid, and the additional S1,75O
that was to be paid on reaching Column
bus. Campbell said he would take the
$3.50 and the receipt and show it to Otis,
to which Boyce agreed.
The plan was that Campbell and
Boyce and Otis were to meet the next
morning al o'clock and come to Co
lumbus. Boyce did not show up, and
on q later train than had at first been
intended Campbell came to Columbus
with Mr.. Otis.
The witness here, in response to a re-
quest, produced the S1,750 that he
claimed Boyce had paid to him. He
said that if Boyce would return TO
Hamilton county he would give him !
back the money, although he might use
part of it in paying the expense of the /
law suit he had started against a pa
per.
This concluded the examination, but |
it viii probably be resumed Monday.

Mr. Warren CWyo9 announced his
purpose to vote for the resolution. He
gave his vote for the resolution as it
stood. and not for any Interior pur-
poses the resolution might have. The
resolution meant no surrender of the
honor, credit and dignity of the nation,
but it affirmed a principle of existing
law and retained for the government
every option and reservation as to the
payment of bonds that an individual
would retain.
Mr.. Culiop Qlls.) announced briefly

NELSON OF MINNEsoTA.

Mr. Nelson of Minnesota stated that
his objection TO the resolution was that
it ignored the duty of the government
to maintain the parity between the
metals as imposed upon it by law. Mr..
Allison spoke of the circumstances at
tending the passage of the Stanley
Matthews resolution in 1873. To him,
it had not meant at that time decla-
ration in favor of the free and unlim-
tied coinage of silver. Other coinage
measures were pending at that time.
and when one of these came over from

IT'S LEGALITY.

Mr. Elkins CIV Va.) thought that as
a legal proposition the resolution could
not be successfully assailed, but he
could see no reason for It's passage
now. He said there were times when
the bondholders could be treated with
indifference, but he asked Mr.. Teller
whether. if war were declared tomor-
row, he would introduce such a reso-
luton as this. 1t would be perfectly
evident that we could raise no money

Mr.. Morgan of Alabama supported
the resolution in a carefully prepared
speech, basing his support upon statis-
tics and deductions and indicating THE
impossibility of striking silver from

He felt that amid the confusion exist

manded the restoration of silver to

ers' Clubs and the State Grange
Hold Important Sessions.

Lansing, Dec Is. - The Michigan AS
ISOLATION of Farmers Clubs distin-
guished itself Wednesday by entering a
vigorous protest against the seating OF
Congressman-elect Roberts, of Utah.
The platform adopted demands the
continuation of the mortgage tax law
and the working of Michigan convicts
on contracts; indorses the Torrens sys-
tenn of establishing land titles; asks
congress to establish free rural mail de-
livery at once and also TO provide pos
tai savings banks. The present system
of contracting for carrying the mails
was denounced as dishonest and a
change demanded, and congress was
urged TO make up the revenue deficiency
by enacting an income tax law.
Lansing, Dec. 16.-The state grange
took firm stand Thursday in favor OF
the absolute abolition of the fee system
of paying county officials, declaring In
favor Of salaries 10 be fixed by the re
spective boards Of supervisors and IN
favor of making it criminal offense
for a county official 10 accept fee OF
other perquisite.
Lansing, Dec. 1T.-At it's closing ses
sion Friday the state grange profted
by the example set by the Farmers
clubs and adopted resolutions favorinl
the immediate establishment of posta
savings banks. Free rural mail delivery
was also demanded. as was the election
