SUIT OVER AN OLD BANK ACCOUNT.
Wife Alleges Her Deceased Husband
Hnd No Right to DraM IL.

NIOBRARA, Neb., May 19.-(Special. AN
interesting case has been pending before a
jury the last two days in which Mrs. Mari
Randa, the wife of the late Vac Randa, a
prominent politician in this county, who died
last year, sues the Niobrara Valley bank
for 1859, being money she deposited fifteen
years ago and which is gone. The bank ex-
hibited checks from her lare husband drawn
by himself against the account, but could
make no proof of an order claimed to have
been made by virtue Of which he could draw
against his wife's deposit. Recently the
bank honored Mrs. Randas check for IS
against this deposit, and though 1t at
tempted to discredit the account on the plea
of the statute limitation, this recent check
barred them and Judge Aliens instructions
to the jury were very plain. The case has
attracted wide attention among local bank
ers, nearly all the banks of the county hav-
Ing representatives here.

Direct Legislation.

The subject of direct legislation is
being more and more discussed and
organizations are being formed TO agitate
the question i'll a systematic manner
Mr. W. M. Salfuer Of Baltimore in a let
ter OH direct legislation, published in the
american, puts some of the salient
points Of the subject in very forcible
manner in the following Paragraph:
There would be no politicians as we
understand the term now. The masses of
the people would have the whole law
making power in their own hands. The
people as a whole sympathize with
reforms of the character advocated, and
would soon alter the law in the direction
of securing the just demands of the
workers if they had the power. At pres
ent the masses are practically powerless.
They have 10 go as suppliants to the leg
islature, which in theory is their servant,
but really their master. Under direct
legislation the legislature would be forced
to submit to the popular vote measures
desired by percentage of the voting
population, and if a majority of the vote
was cast in favor of the measure it would
become law
The Union Reform party which is
arranging to put State ticket up this

Systematically and persistently misrepre,

have been coloring, they have been mis-.

cowardly and contemplate and it is fail.
ing of its purpose. These newspaper
conspirators have tried to represent every
prominent man in the United States as
weakening on the silver question and now
they are applying these tactics to Mr.
Bryan. But Bryan's recent speeches and
particularly the Nebraska and Iowa Dem.
ocratic conventions and platform have
blown their lies to the four winds. 1t is

The Tenth Pennsylvania Volunteers
met with a rousing reception at Pitts

he did his very best on this occasion. For
laying on taffy the President has no
superior and few equals. The Philadel-
phia Press published the speech i'll full
and put the most telling paragraphs in
black letter. The President outlined his
future Philippine policy as a relentless
war of conquest. benevolent assimila

Virginia Opinion Upon rlaryIand
Politics,

The platform of this convention means
that either the Maryland Democrats are
not i'll sympathy with the Democracy oil
the Union, or that, being in sympathy
with them, they lack the courage to say
SO. The embarrassment resulting from
this action will be felt chiefly in Maryland.
When the canvass is we'll begun and
battle joined it will be easy for the Repub-
lican speakers to ask any Democratic
Where does your party stand OIL
the Chicago platform ?" Are you for
free silver or against it 2" care you in
favor of government by injunction, or are
you opposed to it?" "Are you for an
income tax, or opposed to it?" care
you for the Philippine war and colonial
system of annexation, or are you against
the whole business 20 do you include
street railroad franchises in your denun-
citation of the trusts, or not ?" What do
you mean ?" "Why do you dodge these
important questions that everyone is
talking about ?" "Why was your con-
vention silent about Bryan, whom los, 900
Maryland Democrats supported for Pres
ident in 1862" "Ninety- of
the Democrats in the Union are for him.
Are you against him. and if so, why ?"
And this brings up to the ticket. Why
was Mr.. Isador Raynor put Oh the ticket
for attorney general? Is it to applaud
the course he pursued i'll boiling the
national Democratic ticket i'll 1896; his
cringing servility to Cleveland and his
gang; his fierce denunciations of the
Democratic party on the stump i'll 1906,
and his presence in the indianapolis con-
vention of boilers and renegades that
nominated Palmer and Buckner and thus
helped to inflict Mr.. Mckinley, Alger,
and the beef contracts on the country j?
Where has Mr., Rayner stood since 1896,
but with the gang of boilers and recreants
who have aided to impose a Republican
administration OH the state of MARYLAND
and install the negro influence and de-
moralization which, as this platform de-
clares, has led to IAN alarming increase
in crime and menaces the peace and good
order of the state ," Did not Mr.. Rayner
by his boiling performances help to bring
about this very state of things? Is the
hair of the dog good for the bite? The
nomination of Mr.. Kayner means an
Endorsement of his course and anteced.
ents. If boiling is to be honored i'll his
person-honored conspicuously, then why
may not he repeat his boiling perform
ances and vote whenever he pleases
against the other gentlemen OH the ticket
who did not bolt i'll 1896? Is he not at
full liberty to bolt again when Mr. Bryan
snail be nominated in 1900 las he will be-,
and may he not once more demand high
honor from the Democratic party of
Maryland as the reward of his treachery
to Bryan ?-Ca=efte, Alexandria, Va.

class who waste, OIL account of their
abundance, much of the products of in

1t Is not all uncommon occurrence to
hear people of the intelligent class boast

advantage to business resulting from the
addition it causes to the stock of the

attempt to sneer at the cheap silver dollar.
This IS mark of what may be termed
money ignorance. Trade and business
know no difference among dollars. The
yellow, the white and the paper dollar
are all alike in the domain of trade. A
thousand dollar greeenback or thousand
silver dollars will buy and exchange as
much property as thousand dollars of
Uncle Sans yellowest gold, and thous-
and or ten hundred thousand silver dollars
added to the circulating medium will
advance prices aud stimulate business the
same as like number of gold dollars.
This truth is so plain that it ought to
