Nebraska. The factory was owned by the
Mortons and they are still interested In it.
They say that II the suit Is pushed they will

the action Of the Attorney-lieneral as begun
for the purpose OF Destroying the industry
simply out Of revenge for the bitter and re-
~lentless hostility of the Morton family to Bry-

There can be no question to my mind THAT
the Republican party Is the only one that fully
knows how to conduct the affairs Of the country
FOR ita real prosperity. Acting. under that
belief I have identified myself with the McKin-

The Republican Poll Indicates q Larger Piu-
raiity for Him Than in sea

INDIANAPOLIS. Sept '24-The final poll Of tho
State. taken under the direction Of the Repub-
lican State Central Committee. has been COM
pleted. and full returns from all the counties are
now in the hands Of the chairman. The poll
shows that tho plurality for President Mckinley
this year will be larger than that Of four years
ago, and that the total vote will be about 5 per
cent greater.
While the members Of the COMMITTEES refuse
10 go into details or to specify in what counties
tho increase ia shown. It is known that the poll
found fewer undergraduates Republicans
than were expected. and that IL found moro
Democrats who will support the Republican
candidates than the poll OF four years ago.
While II is not expected that the Republicans
will get proportionately more OF the Increased
vote than the other parties. their plurality will
be larger because OF the presence OF the Popu-
listlc national ticket and the Social Democratic
state and national tickets. Both OF these
parties will draw from the Democrats and lessen
the vote Of Bryan a. compared with four years
ago.

realize that their own welfare demands the

mittee ~ the league sent yesterday to most
OF his countrymen in this State two statements
published in German Sloyak, Bohemian and
Yiddish. They compare the prosperity OF
the past four years with the hard times OF the
nreceding four under Democratic rule. and
appeal to Hungarians not TO be misled by
living statements Of Democratic labor agta-
tors In regard to the coal strike. They say:
Compare tho period Of prosperity or labor be-
tween 1898 aud 1900 with the four years inlmedl-
ately preceding the election of 1892. The Demo
Gratis then, as they are doing now, were using the
same familiar lying arguments and The same
old promises. When the prosperity they prom
ised did not set in they blamed their predeces-
sors In office and cited the occurrence OF unfore-
seen events 10 account for the utter failure Of
their promises. Every AustrQ, hungarian should

To-day he not only declared that he meant II.
but quoted acts Of Congress TO make Bryan
appear guilty Of violating the law making trea-
son a felony. lie said that the technical difi-
culties In the way OF proving his charge are
80 great that he does not believe Col. Bryan
could be successfully prosecuted 4 In q trial court
but that the people OF the United States should
adjudge him guilty by applying as a penalty
statute-that he shall BE Incapable OF holding
any Office under the United States"
q consider Mr.. Bryan IA much an enemy
OF his country as Aaron Burr or Jefferson Davis,
him Of the violation OF the following act; Sec
ton S, ss4, Revised Statutes Of the United State:
Every person who incites, sets on foot, assists.
or engages in any rebellion or insurrection

not more than ten years, or by a fine OF not
more than $40. Ooo, or by both Of such punishments;
and shall, moreover, be incapable Of holding
any ofico under, the United states.
I believe this statute was enacted as a
measure against such persons as VallandiRham
and other Copperheads. who, In 1894. proposed
that the Federal Government should COM
promise with the Southern rebels. Then. as
now, the small successes OF the Confederacy
were cited as reasons why the war for the pres
eryation of the Union should be abandoned.
In the same way the argument Is now presented
by Mr.. Bryan that the war TO establish order
In the Philippines Is hopeless and should also
be abandoned
