The primaries yesterday resulted In tlio most overwhelming victory for f"onircss- ; man Mercer that any man ev > r achieved in this city. I'rotn the nolso undo tiy his opponents and the number of war-1 heelcis that were employed to boost for the torn- bine ticket one would have bullovcJ there was actually a political fight on , but when tlio smoke had cleared away and ths count ing of votes commenced It was evident Mercer's opponents had expended all tl'tlr energies In noise which had no vlalblc effect on the ballot boxes. I-i two of thu wards , the Third and the Sixth , thcro waa only one ticket In the field and the result was a very ntnall vole. In the olhcra the contest brought out a very full vote , anil one thing noticeable was the large mii'ibor of persons who seldom think 't worth while to take part In the prlmiirlcH who came out yesterday. These came from the business classes and every on-j * .f them practically was a Mercer vote. The result of this was that Mercer ilolnKaU-s wore elected In every ward In Ihu city , wltn South Omaha and the count.-y prednct'i thrown In for good measure. The only opposition to his rcnomlnatlon In this county which will be In evidence In thu county convention today will he from the Third ami Sixth wards , v. litre there were no contests , and the opposition will have n few votes. There will nut bo enough of them , however , to orgutiUu a consolation meetlnc. In the various wards all of the well known professional political plttggcrs were out working for the anti-Mercer ticket and the municipal officeholders , appointive and elective , were also among the shouters. It was a case of much cry and little wool with them. The ward ucelers were par ticularly conspicuous In the First , Second and Seventh wards. In the two former of these beer was freely on tap , hut It did not appear to have produced any appreciable amount of anti-Mercer enthusiasm. Up to the very minute of closing the polls Mer cer's opponents asserted they had won out , but In a few minutes after the counting commenced they practically all dlsap- Dcarcd. KILLS OFF Tilt ! PLUGGKHS. A worse discredited lot of politicians was never seen In this city. M-M who had made It their boast they could carry their respective wards and who have man aged heretofore to make a living out of their political Influence , now find them- Bolves without an occupation. They put In the day pulling and hauling voters and the net result Is the most overwhelming defeat ever administered In this city. It simply demonstrates that politicians arc powerless when the people are aroused. Business men turned out , manufacturers made it a point to see to It that their employes had every opportunity to cast their votes , and they cast them for Mercer. When the returns commenced coming In the opponents wej-o dumfoumled. They could scarcely credit their senses , but when It finally dawned upon thorn that they had not even made a respectable showing they gradually disappeared , and few could be found who would acknowledge they had voted or worked against Mercer , and In truth there were not many of them. Mercer and Ills friends were scarcely less surprised. They 3 ad anticipated a victory , but the size of It was more than they were preparefor. . When the extent of the victory became known the nmlles gradually engulfed the cntlro face and a Jollification which embraced the en tire city was Indulged In. Of the political machine which has as pired to control the city , county , state and congressional district there remains this morning not enough to warrant Its owners In taking out a building permit to repair the same. Congressman Mercer was besieged at his ofllco In the New Vork Life building by his admirers , who came In droves to congratu late htm on the splendid vindication ho had received. To one and all he returned thanks for the Interest taken In his campaign. He was feeling good , of course , and he had a right to feel good , It was his day to smile and ho smiled. HESULT I3Y WARDS.

Mrs. Annie Weir was arrested for assault and Imttery upon Emily Gavin , n little girl. The girl's mother testified that for ten minutes she stood near by and saw Mrs. Weir beat the girl with a whip until the weapon went to pieces. She did not In terfere. "Why not ? " asked the city prosecutor. "On account of the humiliation , " an- sworcd tlio mother. "It may not be a humiliation to some people , But It Is for mo to bo called Into police coUrt.

Charles , alias "Sloppy" Smith , was In i'o- llcu court yesterday morning and got the worst of It. The complainant In the case was Willie Grabach , who alleged that ho gave Smith 25 cents with which to buy fireworks on the Fourth of July and that Smith never returned after his fingers touched the quar ter. ter.Smith Smith alleged that he still had the quarter and was willing to return It to the Grabach boy. Upon this promise Judge Gordon dis charged him. When his package In the po- llco station was examined , however , It was found that Smith had only 20 cents and the conclusion arrived at was that he had lied to the court and spent the extra nickel. In the meantime Smith had rustled another nickel and showed up a quarter. Judge Gor don , however , would not allow this to be done. "I will sentence you to ten days on the street , " ho said Inexorably.

The matter came out In the report of the union depot committee. One of Mr. Culvert's stock arguments against the Farnam street site has been that the curves and grades proposed for the ap preaches to that depot were almost Insur mountable by modern engineering skill. He has given It out that the Burlington would be compelled to run Its trains around a curve o 10',4 ' degrees , and that fact would be a serious obstacle to tlru ontrancu ot any road. He said thu Burlington did not mind spend ing the necessary amount of money , but It could not solve such difficult engineering problems. The committee showed In Its re port that the curves of tin1 approaches Into the Union depot of St. Louis were from 12 to 14 degrees. The Missouri Pacific wll have to run Into thu Farnam street depot on a curve of 12 degrees , but It sees no objection In that. Moreover , the fact ol the matter Is that the Burlington will come In on a curve of 10 degrees , and not 10V4 degrees , as stated by Mr. Calvert. It was the consensus of opinion that the Burlington should ho given to understand that such mis-statements could not mislead thu com mittee or the business men of Omaha and that all such remarks were to be deprecated. E.C. . Price was appointed chairman of the membership committee , vice John A. Wahcflcld. The following business men were then elected to membership In the club : J. P. Lord , T. F. Hummel , Otto Slow-sen , Frank Colley , M. S. Uanqs , J. M. Wilson George Drake and W. A. Travis. The reorganization of tl.T auditing commlt- tee was allowed to go c\cr until the ucxl meeting. The committee on the paving of Center street reported progress. A commit- tcu was appointed to co-operato with Inter ested parties toward becurlng the location of a chlckory manufacturing plant In the state. A committee was appointed to call on General Manager Bldwell of the Elkhorn ami welcome him to the city. Letters were then read to three great na tlonal organizations whose 1S9S conventions the Commercial club Is endeavoring to bring to Omaha In 1S3S. They arc : Christian En deavor , 70,000 delegates ; National Educa tional association. 12,000 , and Elks , 10,000. The letters cordially Invited these organiza tions to Omaha for the exposition year and briefly enumerated the Inducements Omaha can offer In that year. 1.MUMS AXIJ < ! 1S.\TM MH\ | It nffonls me urtat pleasure to cull the ntten- llou of Ilic nubile to my Kxculslor Hnlr Tonic which is the lust and oniy remedy known to chemistry which positively turnx iiray hnlr lack Itn original color without . to dye. it lmn BUnu on lecoul ns b-lnu the in .at v.tluuMc iind sclt-n- title of nil I'll mlciil discoveries for tliu hair and I personally cmlort-o Ha action and nivu thu public uiy ( solemn Kunrantee tlrni it mis been usted In every conceivable way iind has piovtd Itself to be the only lliilr Specific.

THE CRAZY TIMEVt T This is the time of the year when the stores that have been getting tenth story prices for fourth story goods are conjuring up all sorts of excuses to make people believe that the prices are now on the ground floor and that they arc practically giving the choice goods away. That's why you sec so many "stock- taking sales , " "inventory sales , " "alteration sales , " overburdened sales , "enlargement sales" and mark down sales under one guise or another , as if the public were a lot of blanked fools who like to pay double in April when they can get the same goods for half in July. We never resort to such tricks. We never charge two dollars for what we can sell for one. We never insult your intelligence by Irving to make believe that we arc selling goods for less than we paid for them and we never find any necessity for fake sales cither in January or July. Wise merchants don't do business in winter for the sake of losing money in summer and wise people don't believe that they do. Every day during July or any other m onth we will sell you the best white shirt in the mar ket for 850. We will sell you the best negligee shirt , laundered , for 750 , We will sell you the best soft shirts of their kind for 3pC , 450 and 650 and we'will give you your money back if you can match them for the same money at any of the to mfoolery sales. We never go crazy in July. $100,000 , worth of Summer Goods are on sale at their cut prices. The sale will last eight days more. Special bargains , every day.
