EnrutOxaha. Aug. 23. In the Nebraska

Democratic coavention Edgar Howardwas made permaaent chairmaa withoutoppoaitioB and the nominations waremade by acclamation.After speeches of minor importance,

babbling over with sUrer sentimeatand opposition to the A. P. A., thejeom-Bmitte- e"

reported the following resola--

tioBs:'We, the Democrats of Nebraska, in coa-

vention assembled, reaffirm our faith iathose principles written in the DeclarationofAjaerican Independence and emphasisedby Jefferson and Jackson, namely, that allmen are created equal; that they are en-

dowed by their creator with certain in-

alienable rights, among which are life, lib-.sr- ty

and the pursuit of happiness; thatgovernments are instituted among men tosecure these rights, and that governmentsderive their just powers from the consentof the governed; and we demand that .allof the departments of the government, leg-islative, executivo and judicial shall beadministered in accordance with theseprinciples.

We reaffirm the declaration made by thelast Democratic state convention held iaNebbraska on Sept. 26, 1891,

Wo believe that the restoration of themoney of the constitution is now tho para-mount issue before the country, and insistthat all parties shall plainly state, theltrespective positions upon the question, Inorder that the voters may intelligently ex--'press their preference. We, therefore, de-clare ourselves in favor of 'tho immediaterestoration of the free and unlimited coin-age of gold and silver at the present legalratio of 16 to 1, as such coinage existedprior to 1873, without waiting for the aidor consent of any other nation, such goldand silver coin to be a full legal tender forall debts, public and private,

We send greeting to our Democraticbrethern throughout .the Union, who aremaking such a gallant fight for the restor-ation of bimetallism, and congratulatethem upon the progress mode.

We deprecate and denounce as an

and subversive of the principles offree government any Attempt to controlthe action or policy of tho political partiesof this country by uecret cabals or organi-zations of any character, and warn thepeople against the danger to our institu-tions which lurks under any such secretorganization, whether on religious, politi-cal or other differences of .opinion.

Recognizing that the stability of our in-stitutions must rcst.on the virtuo and in-

telligence of the people we stand, as 'inthe past, in favor of the free commonschool system of this state, and declarethat the some must be perpetual andreceive liberal .financial support, and thatthe management and control of said schoolsystem should be nousectarian .and non-partisan.

The Democracy of Nebraska approvesand commends the declaration of Presi-dent Cleveland in the past in' condemn-ing the pernicious activity of incumb-ents of federal offices under tho govern-ment in attempting to control the policyand nominations of their parties, anilwe hereby recommend the renewal of thepolicy of ills first administration in thatregard.

A delegate attempted to place the fol-

lowing before the convention as theminority report:

We commend the administration ofPresident Cleveland as being able, patri-otic and honest; reaffirm the platformadopted by the Democratic National con-vention at Chicago in 1892.

Scarcely had the first word been'uttered when" there was such a roar thatorder was not restored for 10 minutes,when the resolution was tabled withoutcomment.

Hon. W. J. Bryan and other NebraskaDemocrats addressed the convention onfinancial issues in the evening.

CAMPBELL FOR GOVERNOR.

The'Democratic state convention heremade all its nominations without oppo-sition. The convention was in sessionfrom 10:10 to 2 p. m. and nominationswere completed in a half hour after

Campbell had been draftedfor the standard bearei. The ballotswere all on the minority report, oncredentials and resolutions, and the timewas consumed between the gold and sil-

ver men.The gold men, headed by Senator

Brice, had claimed there would be lessthan 300, and probably not more than200 of the 800 delegates vote for freesilver. The silver men churned theywould have no less than 300, and per-haps 3.0 delegates for free silver. - Itdeveloped that there were 270 free silverdelegates. It was a fighting minority,but would not carry the fight furtherthan on .the platform. The nominee formember of the board of public works issaid to be the only free silver men onthe state ticket, although lines were notdrawn ou the candidates. - -

Qaay'a Opponents Ceandeat..Harrisbcro, Pa., Aug. 27. Senator

Quay and his followers made a bolddash in the fight for Republican su-premacy in this state, by taking posses-sion' of the state committee and depos-ing B. F. Gilkeson from the chairman-ship. The object in doing this was toplace themselves in position to preparethe.rolls of the delegates to Wednes-day's convention, so that they mightappear before that body ' with a prima-faci- e

case. What tha effect of thismove will be cannot yet be foretold,and the next move of the Hastingspeople is looked for with great interest.The situation in general is intensely ex-

citing and altogether uncertain. Both,.factions are claiming victory.

ly killed himself at Hotel Wylie, onSixth street, at 8:55 Monday morning.Mr. Kittel was probably U0 years ofage. Little is known about him. It isbelieved that he was connected withthe war department at Washington.

A telegram from Washington saysthat W. W. Kittel was a clerk in therecord and pension division of the' wardepartment.' There seems, says thetelegram, to be some melodramatic mys-tery behind, his death, which cannot becleared up at present. The record ofthe department shows he was appointedin 1891 from Nebraska.. Kittel was engaged to Miss OliveWylie, the wedding to have occurredlast 'Saturday. Kittel surprised hissweetheart very much on Friday nightby telling her that the wedding wouldhave to be postponed for a short time,because he was broken down in health'and had obtained a seven dayY leave ofabsence from the office and intendedgoing away for a short time to try andrecuperate. Miss Wylie is prostratedand can throw no light on the tragedy.

WOBK OF A MOB.

FOUR MURDERERS TAKEN FROM JAIL.AND LYNCHED.'

late KlaraKy SWriaT Daaayed Away.

Yxxka, CaL, Aug. . Four marder- -en were taken from the countya mob of 350 man at 1 o'clockaadlynched. A band of cJrhtias, feariag that the law would not be carriedout and angered over the atrcrity of re-cent crimes, determined to take rashersinto their own hands. 'Xalynchingwas a ghastly climax to '.V reign oflawlessness which has prev.iasd in Sis-kiyou county for soma months past.One of the victims was Lawrdnoe John-'so- n,

who, on the evening oT July 2K,

stabbed his wife to death in the townof Etna. Another was William Null.'who shot Hnry Hayter in the backwith a rifle near Callahan's on April 21.Louis Moreno and Garland Soomler,who are supposed to have killed GeorgeSears and Casper Meirerhans at BaileyHiH on Aug. 5, were also hanged.

At 1 J at night farmers from all partiaf the surrounding country began todrive into town, and by midnight themob was ready to march to the countyjail. Before taking a step, however,every precaution was taken to preventthe plans of the lynchers from beingfrustrated by the officers of the law.The sheriff and one of his deputies weredecoyed to another part of town by twomembers of the mob, who were engagedIn a sham fight, and the fire bellmuffled to prevent an alarm being giin that way. When, the jailreached the mob, all r of whom weremasked, awakened Under Sheriff Red-for- d

and demanded the keys to the lail.He positively refused to open the dooror give the keys up, telling them thatif they broke in the doors he wouldblow their brains out."- The mob got on top f the stone wallwhich surrounds the jail. DeputySheriff Henry Brahtlacht, who has beensleeping in the jail since the commit-ment of so many murderers, thinkingsome one-wa- s :escaping from the jail,fired two shots out of the window toalarm City Marshal Parks and DeputySheriff Radford. He then opened thedoors and was immediately held up bythe mob, who took the keys from himand entered the jail. Having no keysto the different cells they were com-pelled to burst the locks with a sledge-hammer, which they proceeded to do atonce..

Lawrence Johnson, who brutallystabbed bis wife, wss the first to receive,the attention of the mob. They brokethe lock from the door of his cell andplacing a rope around his neck, led himout of the jail across' the street towhere an iron rail had been laid be-

tween the .forks of two locust trees.Johnson pleaded for mercy, but thesilent gathering gave no heed to himand he' was quickly strung up, dyingfrom strangulation in .a few .minutes.The mob returned to-th-e jail and nextbroke into the cell of William Null,who shot Henry. Hayter at Callahan'son April 21 in a. dispute over a miningproperty. Null desired to make a state-ment, but time was too valuable to per-mit any such preliminaries and he wassoonl hanging alongside of Johnson.Louis Moreno, who was charged .withhaving killed George Sears on the 5thof this month, was then taken from biscell and was soon swinging with John-son and Null.

The last and youngest of the fourmurderers to pay the penalty of hiscrime was' Garland Seemler, aged about19, who, in company with Moreno, wascharged with having killed CasperMeircbans. A rope was placed aroundhis neck and he was led from the jail inhis bare feet. He begged for mercyand his last words were: "Tell my dearold mother I am-innoce- of thecrime.'r

About this time Sheriff Hobbs, hav- -ing been notified, arrived on the sceneand starting for the jail door, wa3 com-manded to halt, the command beingemphasized by the display of several re-

volvers. He was told that. the "job"had been done. By this time the greaterpart of the mob had disappeared, leav-ing only about 30 or 40 men on guard,who soon left after the sheriff arrived.The bodies were taken down by Coro-ner . Shofield and Marshal Parks, whoremoved them in a wagon to an enginehouse, where they were laid side byaide. The coroner has summoned ajury to hold an inquest. Trekaisalittle mining town and years ago wasfrequently 'the scene of mob-violenc-
