CLOSE CAMPAIGN IN ADAMS
Judge Norris and Hon. w. r. Andrews
Address Large Audience nt
Hastings.

HASTINGS. Neb.. oct. s1.-Cspecial Tele-
gram.)-Judge Norris, republican candidate
for congress from the Fifth district, and
Hon. W. f. Andrews, auditor OF the United
States treasury, spoke here tonight in the
opera house before a large, appreciative
and enthusiastic audience. Attorney James
presided over the meeting and introduced
Judge Norris as the hrst speaker and said
that when the speaking ended here tonight
It would practically close the campaign so
far as the republicans are concerned. Mr..
Norris was in poor voice, as he was suffer-
ing from a cold, but nevertheless he made
1t possible for every person in the house
to hear every word. He opened bis address
by stating that so far the campaign had
been conducted in a gentlemanly manner
and so far as he was concerned he intended
to bring 1t to a close In Just the same man
ner, as he was not in favor of mud-throw-
ing. He emphatically denied a statement
in a local paper. which accused him Of not
being in favor Of a public building for Hast
ings. This was a mean manner in which
to strike at a candidate and he wanted it
distinctly understood that he was in favor
OF Hastings having a public building and
always has been. Drifting onto the trust
question, he said he was not in favor OF
trusts. or anything that was so controlled
by any one power as to force everything
into one mans power or anything along
that line. Yet II would be impossible to
suppress the trusts with one thrust without
doing great damage to the country. He be-
lieved in the hand Of the law going out
against certain corporations and saying.
Thus far shalt thou go and no further"
Mr.. Andrews was late in arriving, but he
soon warmed up and talked upon the prin-
cipal political issues Of the day, starting
in by giving the amount Of receipts and
disbursements Of the United States under
democratic hard times and republican pros
perity. II the people want a surplus in
the treasury, they must vote the republican
ticket; II they want a deficit. they know
how to get It. as they had a little ex-
! p~erience Of that kind. He said that 1t
was a matter Of fact that no party in the
history Of the country ever did so much
for this country as did the republican
party. Politics is nothing more than pub
lie business, and we should all look at 1t
in that manner and everything should be
taken up Just as a business man takes up
his duties. He said there has not been
a ~populist party since the year Of 1900,
when 1t was devoured and taken into the
| OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES stomach.

Counter Attraction to

YORK. Neb., Oct. sl-(Special.)-While
II may have made some difference in the
size of the audience that would have at
tended w. J. Bryan's meeting here today II
II had not rained, there would not have
been any difference in the vote whether
or not Bryan was at York, as he is generally
considered an unsafe prophet and is not
the spellbinder he was IN 1896 when ne
first made dire predictions Of the many
great calamities that would follow IL the
lamented William Mckinley were elected.
The few faithful who attended the meeting
asked each other: What Is the paramount
issue that Mr.. Bryan will have this timer"
He hammered at the trusts, and then ne
touched up the subject Of Imperialism. On
t~axation Of railroad corporations In the
state he claimed all credit for his party in
trying to regulate and readtust railroad
taxation, and at no time In his speech
did he mention Mr.. Rosewater's active part
and that Of The Bee.
RED CLOUD, Neb., Oct. 31.-(Special)-
w. J.. Bryan spoke on the street here yes
terday afternoon, but the rally" must GER
tainly have been disappointing to the
fusionists. The crowd did not extend forty
feet from the stand facing the speaker, and
this scattered gathering was composed
largely Of republicans and school chlloTeh'
the public schools not being called until
2 O'Clock. When Mr.. Bryan appeared on the
platform not a single cheer was heard.
The speech was the same bitter harangue
against republicans. During the speech. Mr..
Bryan said there we're but two great par
ties-the democratic party and the aristo-
cratic party-and he illustrated with a
story. Following this, one Of his hereto
fore ardent admirers (populist), said:
well, II that's the case, I'm going to vote
the aristocratic." The republicans here are
feeling tubilant over yesterdays doings and
are more confident today than at any time
during the campaign that a large majority
for the entire republican ticket will be
given in this county. The opera house was
packed and a large number were standing
last night to hear Hon. J. H. Mickey, can
didate for governor. and c. W. Norris. re-
publican candidate for congressman. in this
district. Both speakers made forcetul and
logical addresses.

MAXWELL CONVICTED.
Promised Colored Brother to Secure Him
Work for Consideration.

Joseph H. Maxwell, colored. was con-
yicted yesterday in Criminal Court No
l of obtaining money under false pre-
tences. He represented to William Work
man, also colored, that he was employed
at the Capitol. and had a strong pull with
Senator H. G. Ginsey." For 500 he prom
ised Workman to secure him position
which would pay not less than $50 per
month.
On December % last, Workman testified,
he went to the Capitol and there met
Maxwell and another man who was rep
resented to be Senator Ginsey," and the
bargain for the place was made. Work,
man further stated that he carried out
his part of the programme by paying
Maxwell the money. Fer this he was
given a receipt signed II. G. Ginsey,
stating that If he, Workman, was not
given employment within thirty days his
money would be refunded.
Although more than two months have
elapsed Workman testified that while
he has often asked for his money 1t was
not returned to him. Maxwell. after he
secured the $40 on the promise of getting
him employment. borrowed s4s more.
He has also failed to return the bor-
rowcd money. In his defence Maxwell
testified that he did not promise Work
man to secure employment for him. He
admitted that he borrowed money from
him. however which he has not repaid.
The prisoner was remanded to jail by
Justice Anderson to await sentence.
