Aen tho setiato convened today Mr.

In thiu coancctlon, Mr. Allen (Neb.)
eald:
"I 'bellevo a word on this subject Is duo
ut this point. 1 do not belieyo tbere was
evxr a wrlous purpcae on tho part of tho

I ka the prosldent of the United States, was
carried away by bis iceiingj, m my opin
ion, altogether tco muoa attention. Is being
Fld to It.
"it would be an injustice to tha rank
and file of tho Confederate soldiers to say
iht they would coculJor seriously any
propos Hon to receive- pensions. They have
cared for themselves for a third of n con
lury. They hav a cored for their come
urlra and for their deid. It seems to me
4he.t tto whole' matter cxa bo clewed by
iiajing that both the prcafiont of tho United
Stcka cjii tho author of tbe amendment
(vere carried away by their onthaslasm. In
my judgment, sposkluc from the standpoint
oL a Northern soldier. It is t-nie to close
this Incident. It may be closed by tbe
happy thcught that all bitterness and tee

Omaha, Keb., January 7 What the
members ot the Jacket dan club of this
city aert was tho niort sjecetstut ban
ejtet ever held took place In ths dining
room ct tho Paxton hotel, wlikb. could
barely accommodate those In attendance.
Democrats from nil parts ot the State
wero present and with them many leau.rs
popul.ets, including all the Stats ofMctaTs.
Ex-Gos error AltgeJJ of Chicago, ex-Vita
Iq-esJdeot Stevenson of Illinois and Con
gressman Sulzer of Xow York, as tha
guesU of honor, made the principal ad
dresses.
Mr. Altgeld had as his subject "The
EituaUoa.''
Mr. Stevetson's subject was "The Dem
ocratic Party," and his address was da-
voted to the hlatcry of the parly and an
argumeni against expansion. , ,
Mr. Sulsex'a subject was "The Day we
Celebrate." Ha prefaced his speech by
eay;c that he stood equarely on the Chi
cago platform add brought from tha earn
est democrats of tho Eait their fraternil
greeting ani their mesiagu of hope for
un'oa and harmony In thj ranks and
triumphant victory ot thor grand old tarty
in the years to eerie.
"It Is the duty ot the democratic party,"
ho saU, "to restore ojt merchant marine
We must combat -tho diiastrous policy of
tto tepubllcan party against o.-r mcrchau
mariaj and repeal Its Ylcious legUIatlon.
'Tonight as democrats we Invoke tho
spirit of Andrew Jackson in favor of the
xcluateer forces of the Republic and
against a largo standing army lo time
ot peace composed ot men who are rot tax
payers but ru taxeater. A desperate ef
fort will be made by the republ cans to
Ij3 tho act to create a great standing
army and if it suce&3 it will burden tho
taxpayers ct iho country for Its mainten
ance $130,000,000,000 a year. Every dem
ocrat in the lacd shouM to alive to the
congers ot this republican movement and
io all in his power to frustrate It.
"We need no a'rilnnco w.th Great Britain.
All we need now, as in the past. Is a firm
reliance on our owa greatness, our own
ability, our own Integrity, our own power
to defend our rights, protect our citizens
ani legislate on every proposition regard
ing our own welfare, our own happiness,
our own well betg and our own prosperity.
"Toflay tha sreat trusts of tho country
aro practically supreme. Many of them are
eo entrenched in power that they are to all
Intents and purposes above the law and
no longer amecable to legislative action.
Tbe crjlng evil of the times U the power
a:l the sway of tho trusts. They endanger
not oaly our free institutions, but our fre!
mea. Tho battle cry of the democratic
party should bo the trusts must go. Vfi
legislation beiitow.ng special benefits on the
few u unjuat and against the masses and
for tho classes It has gone m us 11 less
than 8 per cent of the people own more
than two-thirds of all the wealth ot our
country, it has been truly sakl that mon
archies are destroyed by poverty and re
publics by wealth. If the create-it rnniih-
j He tho world has ever seen Is destroved,
q It will fall by this vicious system of fob-
wub mu iuuuj- iw, uiq oeneius ol tuJ tow.
Mr. Alteeld was l-h nnlv n nt ,!.
speikers who mado any reference to free
coinage and ho only briefly. Tho two or
three references to W. J Brjan as the
democratic candidate in 100 each created
Steal enthusiasm. The following letter
from h m expressing regret at hU inabil
