IJNCOLX. Neb, Oct. K. SpclaL
in p-ter or tne Joirpii s. Hartley
defalcation mm State Treasurer baa
arisen In the Nebraska campaign this
year. JuA as It baa In every political
-ampatxn. with two or three excep
tion, since Treasurer Bartley abou.
13 years ago was convicted of embes
iltns; nearly H00.00O of state funds and
for Ms crime was sentenced to 20 year
In the penitentiary. Bartley was elect
rt as a Republican, and his act was on
of the contributing causes that drove
that party out of power for several
years.
This year the Bartley specter strikes
for the first time at a Democrat O.
51. Hitchcock, nominee of Ms party fo.
I'nlted States Senator, and because ho
had by his own admission dealinics with
Mr. Hartley during; hla Incumbency aa
Treasurer the charge has been pub
lished that he was a beneficiary In the
defalcation, and the demand Is made
that he retire from the ticket.
w Nominee Soajht.
This demand is made by a Democrat.
Judfce Kdenr Howard. lnc a leader In
the counclla erf the party, and with his
ilr in en. I personally on Mr. Hitchcock
is coupled a second demand, that the
l'emocratlc state committee insist that
t'onsressman Hitchcock retire and that
the vacancy be filled.
"Joe" Hartley Is again a free man.
After serving les than four years of
lil. " year sentence he was uncondl
tloT"y pardoned by Governor Esra
1. ovas;e at the bchet.lt Is generally
admitted, of Influential men of the
state, many of whom had been be
rrirnded by the defaulting Treasurer
in a financial way.
It has be. n asserted that Bartley did
not personally benefit greatly by his
embexxlement; that his Incumbency
of tbe office of Treasurer began at
time when Nebraska waa going through
a period of flnanclar stress, and with
state funds he tided over many busi
ness and political friends, although he
knew by lending them money he was
disobeying the law. Some of these
loans were never paid. A few months
before bis second two-year term of of
fice expired Treasurer Bartley made a
fsgitfic effort to collect the numerous
loa nl
tailing la this. It la alleged he specu
lated heavily In his desire to recoup
his loaaea to the atate. only to ain't
deeper. When he went out of offico
hla shortage Is estimated to have been
nearly tsOO.000. J. B. Meaerve. hla suc
cessor. In January. 18)7, refused to wait
longer for a settlement of atate ac
counts. Bartley had been payliu;
money at Intervals and aaked for fur
ther time. He waa arrested In Feb
ruary, a little over a month from the
time he retired, and up to that time
had returned $153,000 to the fund which
waa short. On the day of his arrest
pe paid Treasurer Meaerve $20,000.
Bartley waa pressed to tell what had
become of the money, who in the atate
had borrowed from the treasury, and
who of the many men he had favored
were still In his debt, but he ref use 1
absolutely to break his silence. This
stubbornness acted against him In tli
long sentence imposed by the trial
Judge.
To a few men In hia confidence Bart
ley. following hla sentence, spoke bit
terly of how be had been deceived by
those he had aided, and It is said ha
declared he would pay them In full
some day for the deceit they had prac
ticed. Bartley charged that a number
of these men knew when they secured
the loana that they were Incapable of
making restitution and deserted him
totally In his time of trouble.
Governor lavage, when he granted
the pardon. Justified hla action In part
with the atatement that Dr. Bartley.
If given hla freedom, would be able to
collect a large part of hla ahortage
and turn It back to the treasury, in
thla theory the Governor waa mistaken.
Not a cent waa returned by Bartley
following hi release, although It la
charged he was able to collect a con
siderable aura. Bartley. after hla par
don, remained In Lincoln a number of
years, without engaging In any occupa
tion. About a year ago he moved to
Denver, where he now Is.
The act of pardon cost Governor Sav
age a aecond term and ruined his po
litical standing In the atate. After be
ing defeated for renonilnation. he went
to Tacoma. Wash. Frlenda who have
met him aince be left Nebraska relate
that Savage told them If all the facts
were known in connection with the
treasury shortage and the rami f. cations
surrounding it there would follow a
greater sensation than the defalcation
Itself.
The phase of the case affecting Con
gressman Hitchcock originated several
weeks ago. when Kdgar Howard, edi
tor of a weekly paper at Columbus.
suggested that Mr. Hitchcock was an
unfit man to make the race for the
Senate and urging that he withdraw.
declaring that his record would be fatal
to his chances.
Mr. Hitchcock, In turn, denounced
Howard, said his (Hitchcock's) private
nd public life waa an open book, and
called upon the Columbus editor to
prove hla charges. Howard followed up
inia -uerr- by charging that the Sen
atorial nominee waa a beneficiary In
the treaaury defalcation, and printed
facsimile letters In the correspondence
between Mr. Hitchcock and Treasurer
Bartley. bearing on negotiations for a
loan. These lettera were addressed to
"Joseph 8, Bsrtley. state Treasurer,"
and one of them Included a requeat for
an extenalon of time for payment of
money borrowed.
The serlea of aenaatlona growing out
of the Howard charges, bringing aa
they do the possibility of the return of
Bartley to the state, and an expose of
many of the details connected with hla
ahortage. haa Injected Into the cam
paign a eerlea of thrilla which make
of aecondary Importance the county op
tion laaue ana tne oouiag by w. J
Bryan and other prominent Democrata

OSWEGO. .Oct. 2. Judge A. B.
Parker. In a political speech here to
night, referred at length to Colonel
Roosevelt's remarka concerning "the al
leged political circular, alleged to have
been mailed by fomebody In Tammany
Hall to aome alleged person In Wall
atreef"
Quoting Mr. Rooaevet. Judge Parker
aaid
"This Is what our Colonel says: 'Now,
one of the honest men of Wall street
has sent roe a letter, and In It he has
put ene of the circulars sent out by
Tammany Hall to the Wall street ticker
crowd. The circular says that this cam
paign more than any other will affect
the business of the financial Interests
and every Wall street man ought to
give It serious thought.
Speaker Is Sarcastic.
"Observe In passing that the Colonel
admits that there is one honest man in
Wall street. So that will make two
honest men in this state that this cam
paign has thus far developed. Pos
sibly, with accustomed modesty, he
told you when here today who the other
one was.
"The Colonel Is unnecessarily dis
turbed. He would make a legitimate
appeal for the funds needed fur the
legitimate expenditures of a campaign,
'the Issue of the hour' a "vital Issue'
at he puts It. No. that won't do. No
body will take that seriously. Every
body knows by this time that the
Democratic party in this fight stands
for tranquility and business pesce and
Is opposed to the wild --doctrines of
Roosevelt, which would unsettle values,
disturb business and renew the panic
from which the country suffered dur
ing his administration. That is the
fact, the truth. Ia the Colonel auch a
stranger to truth that he doesn't know
It when he meets itT"
Charge of Stealing Made.
Speaking of the charge that Mr. Dix.
Democratic candidate for Governor, was
connected with the "wallpaper trust,"
Judge Parker aaid:
"Mr. Dlz asks for an apology from
his detractor. Will he get It? No.
The Colonel will continue to steal away
tbe good name of Mr. Dix. Ho will
continue to tell you not to steal. Thla
big 'Roosevelt doctrine' re&olves itself
Into this: 'Don't do aa t do, but do aa
I tell you. The King can do no wrong.'

EUGENQ Or.. Oct. 26.-(SpeciaI.)-The

last night passed the following resolu
tion favorable to normal school educa
tion In this state:
Whereas, an efficient system of state nor
mal schoola is an absolutely essential feature

the distribution of its population seemingly
make it necessary that there be at least
three state normals in Oregon, and
Whereas, tbe state has suitable properties
for these schools in tha cities of Ashland
Wston and Monmouth, therefore, be It
"Heiilved. That the Commercial Club of
Kugene. hereby gives Its unqualified Indorse
ment to the bills for the support of tliesa
three Oregon state normal schools.
