TEXTS FROM WANAMAKER,

Through the State--The Forty Years
of Debauchery Under Republican
Machine Rule Abundantly Exposed.
The Legislature of 1898 FrightfuIly
Bad, But No Worse Than Its Prede-
cessors Under the Same Control.
Under Quay we have the worst of
I'll ages, the degraded evil age of
,onscenceless. debauched politics. At
Lancaster, March 16.
Legislation is born of injustice, in
iquity and crime trusts are fostered
and protected and legitimate business
interests assailed. AT Lancaster,
March 16.
The legislature of 1897 was not worse
than it's predecessors have been under
the same control. AT Lancaster,
March 16.
They dhe Republican legislators)
aimed to control the liquor interest by
repeating the Brooks high license law
and substituting a partisan and po-
litical excise board to issue licenses.
At Lancaster March 16.
The state has lost s20O0,000 through
not charging interest upon deposits in
the banks during the sway of Quay.
At Lancaster March 16.
Quay has had the treasury for Is
years, which is believed to have yield
ed 100000 campaign funds annually
and enabled treasurers, on $4,000 sal
ary, to retire rich at the end of two
years. At Lancaster, March 16.
For nearly 40 years this state has
been under the control of the Cam
erons, father and son, and their sue
cessors, M. S. Quay and w. H. An
drews. At Royersford. April 8.
The state treasurer and auditor gem
eral draw 1900 year as members of
the board of public accounts and
buildings and grounds under the ap-
preparation act of 1895, but contrary
to law. At Ephrata March IS.
The general appropriation bill should
be called Quay's ammunition bill The
sum of $6S500 was voted in 1897 for
contingent expenses of the various de-
partments. 1t is impossible to tell how
much of this is honestly used. At Bryn
Mawr. April 49,
Contracts for buildings for the state

legislation at each session marks a
raid upon the treasury for the benefit

After general discussion on
the merits of the different bids
the matter was referred to the
finance committee.
The electric light question was
then considered. HI. K. Smith,
chairman Of the committee ap-
pointed to consider the PROPOSE
tion made by the General Elec-
trio company, made the following
report
Gas to examination Of this
plant we have had Mr.. Schoen
of The Southern Assurance AS
sociation, an electrical expert, to
examine the same and whose re-
port we hand to the council for
their consideration in the future
when the company's bid is before
them. AS for the specifications
for new plant, we will state that
we are having Mr.. Schoen cut
them down so as to suit our
wants, and would recommend
that the council authorize this
committee as soon as the specii-
cations are returned to us, to ad-
vertise for bids on a new plant
built according to the specifica-
tions, after they are cut down or
to call special meeting of the
council to consider specifications
We further recommend that all
bids both for new plant and the
old plant be opened and consider
ed at the same time, which time,
we ask the council to set.
The report of the condition Of
the present plant as made by ex-

pert Mr. Schoen was then read
and filed for information. J. IT.
| livingston submitted a minority
report, the substance Of which
was that the city buy the old
| plant for $4,000 with certain re-
pairs. The motion to adopt the mi
norlty report was lost, Livingston
and Carmichael voting yea. The
majority report as submitted by
Smith, was then voted on and
adopted.
The committee appointed to
provide a plal to care for lost
script made a report, which was
adopted.
The reb atc of $50 asked fer by
j. +. Edwards was allowed.
The ordinance relating to the
obstruction by railroad trains on
street crossings was considered.
The report on same by the judi
ciary committee was adopted and
the ordinance placed on second
and third reading and passed
finally.
The bond ordinance also passed
final reading, and awaits the
mayor signature. The ordinance
providing for the holding Of gen.
eral and special city elections and
the regulation Of same, passed
second reading. The only cx-
ception taken to this ordinance
was an effort on the part of Car
michael to strike out the section
which provided for the closing Of
the saloons on election day. He
contended that to close the
saloons on that day worked an
unnecessary hardship on this
branch of business and they had
as much right tC keep open as
any other business. His motion
to strike this particular section
failed for want of a second.
After the final passage and adop-
tion of the ordinance the council
adjourned.

Lind will carry Hennepin county is conceded
by all save the most hide bound suppliants
TO the Republican party organization, whose
only lesson is learned through the torments
of defeat
The Third and Fourth districts are good
lighting ground for both parties, both as to
state and congressional tickets, as, while
normally Republican that party has nosnin-
ated candidates with marked indications Of
weakness, and there seems little, if any,
doubt that the Democrats will be able to
carry one or both.
In the First and Second districts Republican
victory Is conceded The hope of the Dem
ocrats there is to trim down the pluraliies
which have heretofore been accorded to the
nominees Of the Republican party
Already the Republicans are getting weak
in the knees. The intention is now to con-
centrate their forces in st. Paul and Mime
apolis, keeping up miscellaneous skirm: sh
line through the southern part of the state,
hoping by this device to prevent further de-
fections and at the same time to help tout the
chances of Fred Stevens and Loren Fletcher

Chairman Jones, of the National
Committee, COrrects an Error.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct. G.-Unit-
ed States Senator James K. Jones,
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, arrived in the city this
evening The senator dictated and
authorized the following statement in
regard to the published tatement in
various newspapers announcing that
he had removed Mr.. Harvey from the
management of the affairs of the ways
and means committee Of the National
Democratic committee, and that he
had announced that the scheme con-
Quoted by Mr.. Harvey was rare dis
appointment to him, and that ex-Gov.
Stone, of Missouri, would take Mr..
Harvey's place on Nov. l. Senator
Jones stated that the whole story was
fabrication without semblance of
truth in it, He said that he went to
Chicago few days since to look over
Mr.. HarVeyS plan, as he felt great
interest in it's success. SO far from
being dissa tisf1ed with Mr.. Harvey or
his plans, he was, in fact, very much
pleased with both, and that careful
examination of what had been accom-
phshed and the plans for future work
had inspired him with the utmost CON
fidence in a successful movement. and
ne WlsneS all rrlends or the cause to
know that the confidence felt bv him
in Mr.. Harvey at the time of his an
pointment has only been confirmed by
patient investigation of his work. The
statement that there has been anv
friction between Mr. Harvey and him
self, or that there has been any fric
ton on any material point, or want of
confidence In Mr.. Harvey, he says, is
fabrication. and entirely without
foundation in fact

official TO whom 1t was addressed.
EX-GOv. Busiel, In his letter gave
the names of several officeholders who
could substantiate the charge that the
circulars were issued and sent to them.
In his letter eX-Gov. Busiel says that
he is Republican and has no desire
to ignore his party in the state but
that he feels compelled, from the high
est motives, to call attention to these
violations of the civil service law.
Commissioner Proctor has written to
ex-Gov. .Busiel, enclosing copies Of the
circulars issued by the postoff1ce and
treasury departments, and asking for
any additional proofs Mr.. Busiel may
possess. If, upon investigation the
charges are substantiated, legal prose-
cutiOn will follow
FREE PASSES.
Ex-Gov. Busiel has also reviewed a
complaint filed with the interstate COM
merce commission some eight years
ago against the Boston & Maine rail-
road for issuing Illegal passes. At
that time the commission fully investi-
occasion Senator Chandler appeared
against the railroad. The commission
rendered a decision and filed an order
in December, 1890, directing the Boston
& Maine to cease the unjust discrim-
ination arising from the issue Of free
passes to certain favored persons not
exempted by law. The commission at
that time reserved for further investi-
cation the question of the legality of
giving passes 1O neWSD9paT DrODriotore

did not obey the order Of the commits
sion, but continued it's discrimination.
He also asks for a decision Of the un-
decided question reserved in the former
opinion, and enlarges that question by
bringing in shippers Of freight. The

HIGHLY MORAL MID-RoADERs.

Nominate for the Supreme Bench an
Attorney OF EnsnvOry Record.
There has been a great deal of Curl
osity expressed as to the motive of the
midroad Populists in so strenuously
insisting on the candidates they have
named staying on the ticket IN spite
Of their evident protests as in the case
of Wesenburg. 1t has been contended
by some that 1t was due to the sup
poSedly highly moral enthusiasm of the
Simon pure Populsts as reform forces
although the record OF some of their
nominees does not bear this out
The mid-road Pops nominated for the
supreme court bench one J. A Temple,
Minneapolis attorney who has a rec
ord anything but fattering. Some parts
OF 1t Of especial interest may be CLEAN,
ed from the S3d volume of the Mime
sofa reports, standard law publica-
ton.
This gives the history Of an 1885 case
in which Temple was disbarred for sin
months, the order being accompanied
by an opinion in which his methods Of
doing business were condemned in I'M
mistakable terms A few selections
from the opinion follow, the court stat
ing the facts thus:
Mrs. Dickinson placed in the hands of
Temple, as her attorney, for collection certain
promissory notes against a Mrs. O'Neil a
boarding house keeper. Temple agreed with
Mrs. O'Neil that if she would furnish board
to his law partner, one Goss, that he would
apply and indorse these notes.
The court concludes:
Temple allows Mrs. O'Neil to stand the
loss He attempts to palliate his acts by
saving that he afterwards offered that if Mrs
o'Neil would sue Goss and assign him the
judgment he would pay her the amount. This
attempt to give his conduct the semblance of
fairness is too loose and clumsy to require
comment To some the conduct of Temple
may appear a venial irregularity; but We
cannot lock upon il in any other light than
as willful- misconduct in his profession. This
sort Of petty foraging upon the poor and ig-
norant is in our opinion, one of the most
reprehensible forms of professional miscon-
due"
Temple was suspended from prac-
ticing in the courts for six months.
