"'Tis passing strange, h a God,
Who made the world SO clean,
Should pollute it with a thing SO mean"

TO THE PUBLIC -aa
1t has come to my knowledge that r F. Petit
grew, the populist U. S. Senator from South Dakota, has
written a letter to a member of the Polish Catholic Church
of Granville Township, Day County, accusing Father
Wojtowicz of having bargained his political influence to
me, for six hundred dollars and the Importation of a Pol
ish speaker from Chicago.
Were it not for the fact, that there is an attempt on
the part of Mr.. Pettigrew and the populist party to in
iect religion into politics and besmirch the character of a
man, who for nearly seven years l have had the honor to
call my friend, and whom | know to be a man of ire
p~roachable character and high integrity, no notice would
have been taken of the contemplate charges, made in the
letter above referred to.
LIDO, hereby, most emphaticallyd deny such charge and
assert, that / never have had, or attempted to have, any
conversation or communication of any kind or char
acter, nor did any person, in my presence or with my
knowledge, have or attempt to have, any conversation
with Father Wojtowicz relative to his using his political
influence for any consideration whatever and | deem it an
insult to Father Wotjowicz and to the Polish people to
whom he ministers, to make such a charge. 1t is a vile
libel on au honorable man, a SANDER upon his congrega-
tiou and an insult to his friends-depraved is the man
who is mean enough to write such a letter or utter such a
charge.

Hon. Murat Halstead on the Political

The celebrated war correspondent
Murat Halstead OF Cincinnati, Ohio. me,
with a rousing reception Friday even,
ing. The Mckinley Roosevelt club as.
sembled at 1880 p. m. and with lighted
torches made a short parade through
the city, heartily cheering as they
marched. The Opera house was packed
to the limit when Chairman L. w. Tay.
Tor called the meeting to order and an
nounced a selection by q local quartette
who rendered "The flag OF free" in a
manner which brought forth an enthu.
siastic encore.
The speaker was then introduced by
chairman Taylor and proceeded to de.
liver what proved to be one OF the most
entertaining talks OF the campaign. He
is nGt a polished orator but any man
nerlsm OF delivery was quickly forgotten
in the interesting and inside facts he
furnished. Commencing with the trust
question he referred to the passage by
the republicans of the Sherman anti
trust law which practically became a
dead letter during the Cleveland admin.
istration. He declared the greatest
trusts in existence to be the silver trust
aud the Tammany trust, aud the only
emperor, Richard troker, who aspires
to be a power even greater than presi-
dent in case OF Bryan's election. Refer.
ring to the Philippines, he stated how
be had visited these islands in the capac-
ity of war correspondent, had gone
there with ideas favorable to the FIJI.
pinos, ideas which rapidly changed as
he became familiar with the treachery
and bad faith OF Aguinaldo and his ad.
hereuts. In an interview with Aguin-
aldo, in 1893, the insurgent leader out
lined the very plans that Bryan pro-
poses to carry out if elected. Aguinaldo
he described as a low, cunning rascal.
while Agoncilla, his secretary, vas an
educated man. Aguinaldo was first
heard of when he and his band accepted
IA bride OF 81, 600, 900 from the Spanish
government to leave the islands. He
went to Hong Kong and organized a
Filipino republic" declaring himself
president AID offered the U. s. a bride oil
two provinces, Manila and Cavite, If
it would furnish him arms and help him
drive the Spanish out, an offer prompt
ly spurned. Captured documents proved
the t~reacherous disposition OF Aguinal'
do. He declared that the carrying out
of Bryan's policy as outlined in his let.
ter OF acceptance would mean the
plunging OF this country into war with
the nations of the world, Germany in
particular. Mr.. Halstead's version oil
the situation in the Philippines deeply
impressed his audience.

FIorida's Census.

Jacksonville Times-Unlon and Citizen:
Hon. ]. NJ. Cheney of Orlando supervisor
of the census for Florida, spent a short
time in the city yesterday, and in an in
terval of his labors. he spoke of the prog
ress of the census taking IN Jack
sonville. He said that he was perfectly
satisfied that the returns, made by his
enumerators, will be as complete as they
can be made by any agency. He had, he
said, Investigated every complaint that
had been lodged against the work of his
men, since attention was called to it by
the action of the Board of Trade last
week Every complaint, he said had been
met, and in number of instances 1t had
been shown that there was no cause for
such complaint. When the Board of Trade
took action In the matter there remained
several days in which the census was to
be completed, and this explained the omis-
sion of a number of persons who had not
been reached, but who were still on the
books of the enumerators to be visited.
He believed that in two instances the
complaints had been based on good rea-
sons, which was, owing to mlsundsr-
standing as to the boundaries of certain
enumeration districts, by which two large
buildings were omitted. This error had
been rectifed, and he believed there would
be no further cause for complaint.

Morning News. Office, Savannah,
Ga, June 19.-Spirits remained firm
at 4315 cents, with sales OF so
at the opening and 200 at the close.
The market developed a weakening ten
dency towards the close and if this be
maintained slight decline may be ex-
pected. Buyers were offering 4S cents free
" yesterday, but seemed unwilling to go
above that figure, and unless there he
some change in the situation the indica-
tons are that they will carry their point.
Receipts heretofore have been applied
pretty freely to contracts, the result be-
ing that factors are likely to have con-
siderable stock to offer in the open mar
ket The factors were hoping for de-
mand which would send prices back to
a at least, but unless some competition
can be aroused among the buyers the
turn will be the other way.
Resins rvmain firm and unchanged, with
good sales at prices quoted.
Despite the reported dizziness in the
lumber trade there are a number of
schooners in port receiving or awaiting
cargoes and the number is being added to
daily.

Rain Threatens Fruit.

Macon News: The fruit crop is seriously
threatened. Another week of rain will re-
suit in incalculable damage. The fruit
growers over the entire state are becom-
ing alarmed, and many of them express
the opinion that the late peaches are al
ready hurt, A prominent fruit grower
stated to News reporter that the peaches
in some of his largest orchards were be-
ginning TO rot and that it the weather
continued for a much longer period the en-
tire crop would be ruined. This state of
affairs exists not merely in Middle Geor-
gia, but throughout the state, and the
peach crop of 1900 may not be as large by
a considerable amount a 1t has been in
past years. The cotton and corn is being
damaged in a corresponding degree. and
The fruit growers and planters are becom-
ing very much worried. IF these rains
continue for one week longer" said a
fruit grower this morning, lit will mean
the loss of thousands of dollars and i'm
fact the damage can hardly be estimated
The peaches will begin to decay, and
when this starts it IS then goodbye 10 the
whole crop. / do not hesitate to say that

alarming"
