WILL SEEK A MANDATE

POPIXIST 3IATHE1VS SAYS ELECTOUAL TICKET MIST B12 CERTIFIKD. Ill Excoriation of the Treaclieron ComniHtee of Thirteen Hi Itettltects to the Local Gna. The Populist3 have fallen to fighting right merrily among themselves over the fusion deal fixed up last Tuesday. This week's Issue of the American Nonconformist, the Populist organ, condemns the deal In unmeasured terms and devotes a good deal of space to denunciation of what it terms the "Indianapolis gang," who went over- to the Democracy right after the Chicago convention, and have since had the effrontery to endeavor to dictate Populist policies. Charles X. Mathews, editor of the Nonconformist, declared yesterday that he would ask for a mandate to compel the certification to the election board of the Populist electoral ticket put up by the committee of thirteen at ita session Sept. 17. lie holds that the action of the committee on that day was in effect the action of the convention, and after it had been done, nothing could undo it. He declares that this committee was the agent of the State convention for the performance of a specific act, and that act was performed on Sept. 17, and the authority of the committee thereby exhausted. The Nonconformist in its editorial columns has some very salty things to say about the deal made last Tuesday. Here are samples: "After the Populist committee crawled on Its belly and begged the Democratic managers for hours to be allowed the privilege of voting their ticket, they were rejected with scorn and treated with contempt. Jn other words, they humiliated themselves in vain. One of the reasons for this action of the Democrats is because they have been constantly told by the Indianapolis gang of suckers and sellouts that all the Populists were going to vote for Bryan and Sewall anyhow, and that it made no difference whether there was a straight Populist ticket in the field. As these gutter snipes and sewer rats had gone over and crawled In the mud, they presumed to speak for the decent Populists of the State and say that they also had debauched 'themselves. 'Rankin and Washburn, of the Populist national committee, came here this week with a lie on their lips. They declared that Tom "Watson told them in St. Louis last week that he wanted and demanded a fusion electoral ticket in Indiana, This lie was effectually contradicted by Mr. Watson's telegram to the editor of the Nonconformist. Still these fellows insisted on their fusion deal, which was directly in the teeth of Mr. Watson's desires and an insult to that noble and gallant leader of the Populist party. " The Nonconformist pays its respects to Shepard, "Talky Bill Patterson," Ogborn, Adkinson, the Schoftelds and other Marion county Populists in this fashion: "Readers of the Nonconformist know that this paper does not indulge in personal attacks. When it criticises Individuals it does so in connection with matters of business and policy. Mere abuse of Individuals, aside from questions of public concern, is opposed to tfte podcy of this paper. We feei above it. We also feel that such matter would be inappropriate in a reform newspaper. But we feel compelled to depart from our usual pohcy this jjeek to the extent of saying something about what is known as 'the Indianapolis gang.' This coterie is small, but it is noisy. Its influence and standing are in adverse ratio to the racket it makes. In other words, both ends of the proposition reach what the scientists pronounce 'zero.' During the recent controversy over the electoral ticket, the editor of the Nonconformist has been highly honored by the abuse of this gang. The only way they could help him was to abuse him, and this they have done without stint. The favorite charge of this crowd of deadbeats and degenerates is that the editor of the Nonconformist has been bought by the Republicans. In their slang phraseology, he has been 'seen.' In other words, the Nonconformist has been bought to do what it has always done, what it desires still to do, and what it could not escape doing without ruining itself. It has always been a straight Populist paper. It ha ever, in season and out of season, insUjed on strict adherence to Populist princirs, Populist candidates and Populist platforms. Yet njw, when it continues to do this, and could not do otherwise without self-stultiiication. 'it has been bought.' And who is it that makes these charges against the Nonconformist? Mostly a set of deadbeats and ignoramuses, who are as ignorant of decent action as they are. of politics, and as bankrupt financially as they are in morals. "One of these creatures had the impudence to come to the editor of the Nonconformist last week and noisily notify him that if he carried through his deal for a straight Populist ticket, 'we will withdraw our patronage and boycott you.' The 'we' in this instance is interesting. For curiosity we had the mailing clerk to look over the lists dnd see how many of this precious gang were patronizing the paper. It was found that the fellow who made the threat to withdraw his patronage was not now and never had been a patron of the Nonconformist. In other words, he has never paid a cent to the support of the paper since it has. been in this city. Of the others, not over three were found to be paying subscrilers. Several of them are carried on the list as deadheads. Not only have they paid nothing, but they have received the paper as a gift from the office. The withdraw il of this crowd's patronage would be a great calamity indeed. It would injure us at least to the extent of $1 a year, but this would be amply compensated by being relieved of them entirely. If they will agree to quit, and stay quit, the Non33nf rmist wil try and struggle along without them, consoled by the reflection that it had got rid of a lot of beggars' lice. "Now. as to the political status of this contemptible gang. They all went over to the Democratic party three months ago, and have been its servile tools ever since. Hardly hai th Democratic convention adjourned until they were throwing up their hats for Bryan and Sewall and declaring that they did not care what the Populists did. They had jumped into the Democratic band wagon. They could not even wait for the Populist convention to act. Thpy did not give it a chance even to ratify the Democratic ticket. They were loud and boisterous in suppoit of Democracy, and equally loud and boisterous In abuse of all Populists who refused to do the same. Yet. this umirincipled set of impostors and frauds have the impudence to appear at Populist headquarters, in Populist meetings and in Populist committees, claiming the right to run things and dictate to everybody. They were on hands last week and this, bossing the job of selling out the Populist narty. despite the fact that every one of them had come out publicly for Bryan and Sewall. and proposed to vote that ticket regardless of v hat th Populist committee did. They all abuse Tom Watson and denounce hioi as a disorjrani.er. They -jbuse the Nonconformist, not because it won't do right, but because it won't do wrong. They would have is become as debased and unprincipled as themselves. While charging others with being corrupted, it is well known that this gang is venal to the last degree. The only reason they don't sell is because nobody thinks thm worth purchasing. There are no bidders, because the cattle are not salable. The sheen havlpsr the rot. there are ro buyers in the shambles. Nobodv wants them, because it is a loss to have them on hand. Kven the Democrats, before whom they have crawled and liegged to take thern. don't want them, and refuse to have them. They can add nothing to the party that they join. Th.y can only benefit the partv they leave by their departure. 'Nothing in life becomes you so well as the leaving of it.' says Hamlet in the play. Nothing can so benefit the PopuHst party and the Noneotjformlst as to get rid cf this gang of insufferable nuisancs. Nearlv all of them are hungry expectants of place, and thev hope the Democratic party will throw them a bone in exchange for their vote. Several of them have b'fn stuffed up with the idea that they will get p'aces on the Df moeratl? ticket. Another thought he was to be candidate for judge. Others howd thev could crawl in under the Democratic table in some way. All will get left that have, not already been left. They will get nothing but the contempt they deserve. Even the Democratic party, hard pressed as It is. doe.) not dare to take on such a- load. To put one of these hungry doirs on their ticket is to drive all decent men away from it. For one of them coming means the going of hundreds of others. Such is the crowd that honors the Nonconformist with iu hatred. Liars, frauds.

deadbeats and sellouts! All the good you can do the Nonconformist is to hate it. And such as you are may all who hate it be!" A RIDICCLOIS FARCE.

Eleven Populists Constitute Themelvc a Connty Convention. Eleven lonely Populists, about all there are left in the party in this county, met by early candlelight last evening at No. 12V2 North Delaware street in answer to a call for a mass meeting, published in their organ, the Sentinel, yesterday. They met for the purpose of appointing delegates to the "county convention." It has not been the intention to hold a county convention, but to let the Populists vote the Popocratic county ticket. However, the discovery has been made that in order to get the names of the Popocratic candidates on the Populist ticket they must be regularly nominated by a Populist convention. Therefore, these eleven met last night and appointed themselves and eight others, nineteen in all, delegates to represent the party in an alleged county convention, which will meet at the same place next Saturday and nominate the same men nominated by the Popocratic county convention. 0 WARRANT FOR IT. A Populist Candidate Repudiates the Committee's Action. Silas M. Holcomb. of Fort Branch, Populist candidate for Secretary of State, was in the city last evening. Mr. Holcomb was, not a little disgusted at the action of the committee of thirteen last Tuesday. "I favored a straight middle-of-the-road electoral and State ticket," said he, "and I have seen no reason to change my views. I also doubt whether that committee had any warrant in law for putting out the combination ticket after having once put a ticket in the field." THE BALLOT TOO BULKY NEW ROSES AVILL HAVE TO BE OBTAINED ALL OVER, THE STATE. Two Hundred Ballots Cannot Be Crowded Into One of the Boxes Which Are Now In I'se. County Auditor Harry Smith yesterday called attention to a condition that will cause much inconvenience and considerable expense to the County Commissioners over the State. Sample ballots have been sent out by the State and were received yesterday by the county officers. There was a question raised as to whether two hundred of the State ballots would go into one of the ballot boxes. Mr. Smith secured two hundred sheets of the same sort of paper on which the ballot will be printed, cut to the actual size of the ballots and men began work folding ballots and going through the process of voting two hundred times. The ballots will be seventeen and half by thirty and a half inches. It was found that however folded not more than from eighty to one hundred can be crowded into a box. With careful folding and with much care in putting them through the little slit made for the purpose it was found that a few more could be put in than when folded promiscuously, but in no case can anything like two hundred ballots be put in a box. The vote will run two hundred to the precinct in most parts of the S'ate. This brings up a question of much importance, for when a box has been filled on election day and there are more voters to cast their ballots it will be too late to look for a place to put them. They must all be placed in the one box that has been provided, and even if there were a second box ready it would be illegal to use it. There are over three thousand nrecincts in the State and as a ballot box costs from $2 upward it will be a considerable expense to buy new boxes. It will require a box about twice the size of the boxes now in use throughout tho State .and thescj will have to be provided by the County Commissioners before the election or there will be trouble. The ballot will contain seven tickets, which makes it almost twice as bulky when folded as it was two years ago. On account of the great number of tickets in the field there are other points that will have to be carefully considered by those having the arrangements for the election in charge. A YOUNG SCHOOL GIRL MISSING. Pretty "Dot" Haydon, Aged Twelve, Falls to Return Home. "Dot" Haydon. a pretty schoolgirl, twelve years old, is mysteriously missing from her father's home, 9 Valley drive. Thursday noon, after dinner, she left home for school, on Beeler street. Since then nothing has been seen of her by her half-distracted parents. L. M. Haydon, the girl's father, is in the transfer business. He reported the case to the police last night and efforts are beinr made to find the girl. She is very large lor her age, although she is still in short dresses. When she left home she wore a dark plaid dress, black shoes aid hose and a round black cap. Over her shoes she wore rubbers. She has black hair and dark eyes. Mr. Haydon says that "Dot" has sometimes remained away from home until late at night, although he frequently rebuked her for so doing. When &he did not return home from school Thursday evening nothing was thought of the occurrence, as Mr. and Mrs. Haydon supposed she would return before bedtime. When morning came she was still absent. Mr. Haydon consoled himself with the idea that she had gone to spend the night with one of her girl friends, and then he went to the country, as he had urgent business. Last night, when he returned home at dark, he was greatly alarmed to find that his daughter was absent, and he was not slow in responding to the tearful entreaties of his wife. He started to search for the missing girl. A visit to the teacher disclosed the fact that "Dot" had not been at school Thursday afternoon. Mr. Haydon then inquired of a number of girls with whom "Dot" associates, but none of them had seen her after she started home to dinner Thursday. Next he visited his relatives, without getting the slightest trace of his daughter. It was midnight wren he turned to the police station last night. At that hour he had just come from the last place "Dot" might be expected to go. While she is not yet thirteen years old, she is almost as fully developed in physical arpearance as a woman, but is childish and inexperienced in the ways of the world. Mr. Haydon says that she has had no male companions other than the young boys who have visited her and hor four sisters at the home on Vailey drive. So far as he knows, "Dot" never attended theaters or other places of amusement. Mr. Ilaydcn was extremely anxious about his daughter and was reluctant to return to his heartbroken wife without their youngest child. He fears that she has fallen into evil hands end has been lured away from the city. STRUCK BY A PUMPKIN. Ansel Mather, a Boy, Dies from n Peculiar Injury. Ansel Mather, aged ten. is dead from the result of a pecular accident in his father's barn at 74 East Twenty-fifth street. Ansel and his brother were storing away a lot of pumpkins in the barn. Ansel was tossing the pumpkins to his brother, who failed to catch one of them. It bounded back and struck Ansel in the side. Dr. House says that the accident caused appendicitis, which terminated in peritonitis, from which the boy died. The body was taken to Flanner & Buchanan's and Coroner Castor notified of the death. HIS INVENTION FAILED. One of Causes Which Irtve Charles P. Newman Insane. Charles P. Newman was declared insane yesterday. He Is forty-live years of age, married, has five children and lives with his family on Forest avenue. He is an electrician. He devoted many months in an effort to make an electrical clock, and failure to accomplish his object, together with a severe attack of typhoid fever, is supposed to have occasioned his collapse of mind.

P0P0CRATS IN A ROW

STATE CANDIDATES WRATHFUL BECAISE THEY WERE DUMPED. Bryan Manager Willing? to Sacrifice Them to Get Populist Votes for . Electoral Ticket. The Popocrats have fallen into a row among themselves over the question of fusion with the Populists. The Bryan managers in Chicago, represented here last Tuesday by J. G. Johnson, of Kansas, are extremely anxlou3 that the Popocrats shall yield to the Populists live electors, and thus have but one electoral ticket, instead of two, as there are now, according to the action of the Populist committee. The State candidates, who have been putting up all the money up to date for the Popocratic campaign, strenuously object to any further steps in the fusion business that do not contemplate the withdrawal of the Populist State ticket. One of the candidates on the Popocratic State ticket said yesterday: "You can say that the State candidates will never consent to fusion on the terms proposed. It does not make any difference what J. G. Johnson or any one else says, fusion has not been acocmplished, and will not be so long as the Populist State ticket is in the field." The national committee is threatening to withdraw all support from the campaign in Indiana unless the State candidates consent to accept the fusion electoral ticket. In reply to this threat the candidates declare that the only aid that has been furnished Indiana thus far was that brought here by Johnson and Thomas Patterson to Influence the Populist committee of thirteen to put up its combination electoral ticket. They declare that they have got along thus far without any financial help from the national committee, and do not believe they will get any, anyhow. "I told Johnson before he left here," said another candidate on the State ticket last evening, "that he should not go back to Chicago and claim that the fusion deal had been completed, for we will not have it that way. I am tired of being side-tracked and do not propose to have any more of it." The thing that roiled the State candidates was the statement in the State organ last Wednesday that the deal was satisfactory all around. They believe this statement was instigated by Johnson, and they would like to have Mr. Johnson return for a day In order that they might have some hard-boiled words with him. Chairman Martin, of the State committee, takes the side of the State candidates in the controversy, believing that inasmuch as they are putting up all the money they ought to control the policy of the campaign. NO NEW STATE TICKET. Sound-Money Democrats AVill Not Put One in the Field. The National Democratic State committee met at 11 o'clock yesterday morning to discuss the question of whether or not it should put a State ticket in the field, in view of the fusion or quasi-fusion between the Popocrats and Populists formed early this week. The subject was disctissed for a couple of hours, and the decision of the committee was not to put a ticket in the field. - The decision was reached not because the committee has any particular regard now for the candidates on the Popocratic State ticket, but partly because it would be difficult thus late to get together a State convention and nominate a full State ticket, and partly because it is too late to accomplish anything with such a ticket. A month or six weeks ago, when such a move would have added strength to the movement in this State, the personal regard of some of the leaders of the National movement for certain candidates on the State ticket, who had been sound-money men before the State convention, and whogave assurances that there would be no fusion with the Populists, had much to do with the decision not to put a State ticket in the field at that time. Since then the leaders have discovered .that the lack of a State ticket is a good deal of a hindrance in the work of organization, and it is figured that they would probably be from five to eight thousand votes stronger had they put out a ticket a month ago. They have also discovered that the sound-money men on the Popocratic ticket have worked just as hard to accomplish the fusion with the Populists as the most radical silver men, but the discovery has been made too late to do any good. RIVAL SILVER MEETINGS. Fort Uraggr Soldiers AVanted No Imported Orators. Allen Jennings and W. P. Smith, a. pair of ropulists well matched, attempted to hold a public meeting at the Fort Bragg headquarters, corner of Washington and Delaware streets, last night. Smith has a long flaxen beard and shiny locks reaching to his coat collar. An empty cask covered with a lot of loose planks formed the stand from which he delivered a long-winded address to an audience that paid but little attention to his remarks. Two or three of the most persistent of the curbstone declaimers. who have held forth at Fort Bragg for the last few weeks, stood some feet away from Smith surrounded by a large circle of men who paid more attention to what they were saying than they gave to Populist Smith. Allen Jennings tried to put an end to the rival speeches, although the men were talking quietly and not distrubing Smith in the least. Jennings declared, however, that they were disturbing a "public meeting, which had been advertised." and threatened to have them arrested if they did not go away. "Arrest and be d d," said one man who got angry when Jennings tried to work the "bluff." "We were here talking before you and that old whiskers came around here shooting off your mouth. We've got as much right to talk here as you have. We come here every night and have a right in the streets." Finding his arguments and threats alike ineffectual, Jennings withdrew and Smith brought his address to an abrupt termination a moment or two afterward. A LIE ABOUT SENATOR BOYD. Nohlesville Democrat Engaged in Its Usual Falsehood. The Noblesville Democrat recently reprinted the falsehood which appeared in the Sentinel regarding a telegram which Chairman Gowdy is alleged to have sent to New York conceding Indiana to Bryan, and then added a falsehood of its own to this one. It stated that Senator Thomas B. Boyd, of Nohlesville, admitted that Bryan would probably carry the State. Mr. Boyd was in the city yesterday, and his attention was called to the article regarding him in the Noblesville paper, lie denounced it as a lie made out of the whole cloth. Said he: "I have been in twenty-five counties of the State in the last two months, and in every place T have spoken I have found Democrats who will vote for McKinley. I have heard hundreds of Democrats here denounce the Chicago platform in the most unqualified terms. The article in that paper is a fair sample of the lies that have been published in every campaign in the Noblesville Democrat, one of the dirtiest Democratic sheets published in the State." Mr. Boyd says he believes the State will go Republican at least 60,000. Mr. Boyd says he will give any man $10 that will stnd up before him and say he made any such statement as attributed to him in the Noblesville paper. BOURKE COCKRAN'S SPEECH. Famous New York Orator at Tomlinmou Hall To-Maht. Bourke Cockran, of New York, will sieak at Tomlinson Hall to-night. Mr. Cockran is an old-line Democrat who was not carried off by the free-silver craze. He believes that the only safe thing for Democrats who believe in the gold standard is to vote for McKinley and thus let their votes count for all they are worth against free, silver and for sound money. He has held out firmly against the movement for the National Democratic ticket, although he still maintains his allegiance with the true Democracy. His speech will be devot. d entirely to the money question and will give his reasons for voting for McKinley in preference to the sound-money Democratic nominees. Mr. Cockran stwke here four years ago in the interest of Mr. Cleveland and those who heard him thea

will remember him as one of the most eloquent and logical speakers ever heard in the city.

TIM GRIFFIN'S GRASS. It Will Have to Be Saeriliced for Candidate Bryan. Tim Griffin was between the devil and the deep blue sea yesterday. Tim was at one time a leader of the "push," and is an ardent silver crank, but he is also an ardent lover of the bluegrass in the Statehouse yard. Therefore when he read yesterday morning that the crowd coming out to hear Bryan Tuesday afternoon was to gather in the southeast corner of the Statehouse yard, he was filled with wrath and conflicting emotion. His beloved bluegrass got the better of his high regard for Bryan, and he hustled down to the office of Mayor Taggart. chairman of the committee on arrangements, and put in a lively protest. He didn't want the meeting in the Statehouse yard at all. and was inclined to blame the whole thing upon Myron King, who, he said, warned it there so he could show himself coming out of the Governor's office. Tim doesn't like Myron King any too well, anyhow; he is rather jealous of the great influence King exerts over the Governor, and Tim rather prefers that he should run the Governor himself. In the afternoon Mayor Taggart called at the Governor's. office and a meeting was forthwith held attended by himself. Myron King, T. E. Johnson and Irvin Bobbins. Tim had been mollified to some degree, and had expressed a willingness to have a stand erected at the northeast corner of the Statehouse, and from this point the Popocratic nominee will talk at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. Bryan will speak at 4:15 o'clock from the Tomlinson Hall balcony, and at 7:30 o'clock from the same place. At 8:15 there will be a meeting inside the hall. Governor Matthews will preside at the Capitol grounds meeting. The reception committee met at the Governor's office last evening to complete arrangements. Myron King'presided and Tim Griffin meekly agreed to build the stand in the Statehouse yard. Railway Men's Sound-Money Club.

Those who arranged a meeting for the Citizens' Sound-money League at the corner of Forest avenue and Twentieth street, in Hahn's Hall, were very much surprised last night when the crowd began to assemble. They had expected to have an attendance of about one hundred, but when the time came for the opening of the meeting their surprise was great to find the hall filled with five hundred people and many people outside unable to get in. There were many ladies in the audience. The meeting was a great success. George W. Spahr presided and State Jameson was secretary. General John Coburn talked interestingly on the tariff and D. W. Howe discussed the financial problems of the day. Martin Hugg also spoke. There was music by the Indianapolis colored quartet. Wholesale Employes and Their Cry. The Wholesale District Employes' Soundmoney Club held a big meeting at its room, No. 13 Union Block, last night. Charles L. De Hass made a speech. The club will turn out in a body to-night to attend the Bourke Cockran meeting at Tomlinson Hall, members meeting at the clubroom at 7:30 o'clock. It will be headed by the First Voters' Drum Corps of twenty-four pieces. The club members wear light brown soft hats and carry flag canes. They have a club cry that runs like this: Rah, rah, ray. Boom, Lang away. Money, money, money, Sound money And prosper-i-ty. Colored Vote Solid for McKinley. Dr. S. E. Elbert, Indiana member of the national Republican campaign committee, has returned from an extended tour of the SUae. He says that he has seen large numbers of colored voters in the State and from what he has observed believes that there has not been such a unanimous determination among colored voters to support the Republican ticket for many years. The vote is practically solid for McKinley, he says. He believes that the Bryan vote in Indianapolis and Evan&ville will be insignificant, notwithstanding the boasts of colored support the Popocrats are making. Eighteen, Including Boys. The Bryan-Sewall Club, of Haughvllle, which marched to the Town Hall in that suburb last night to listen to a talk by F. J. Van Vorhis, had eighteen members in line including the boys. Rev. Dr. J. S.

Woods Is Not a Democrat. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I notice by the Indianapolis Sentinel of Oct. 1 that I attended a meeting of the colored silver Democrats.
