The ndvo. catcs ot particular sites arc taking an actlvi part In the canvass for votes , and the BI'.U. atlon Is rapidly becoming complicate 1 tj the multiplicity of Interests. Outside of tht candidates presented and urged by the lU' tcrcats rcfcrcd to very few names havt been mentioned for the directory , but there are Indications that before the date of tht election rolla around there will bo n large number of names for the voters to choose from. The members of the present board ol directors , who were elected at the organiza tion of the association and who have brought the project to a condition where Its success seems assured , are candidates for ro-clcctlon as members of the now board , although none ot them , so far as can bo learned , are making any canvass for votes. As It Is now constituted the board of directors comprises the following : 0. W. Wattles , president ; J. K. Market , vice presi dent ; W. R. Bennett , J. H. Kvans , . Dudley Smith , Dan Farrcll , Jr. , G. II. Payne , Charles Mctz , 1. W. Carpenter , II. A. Thompson and C. S. Montgomery. SITR CUTS A FIGURK. The most aggressive campaign so far has been by the residents of the northern part of the city , who nro Inspired by a desire to sco the exposition located In Miller park , a site near old Fort Omaha. The North Side Improvement club has had the matter Ii hand and linn been Industriously organizing for the past few months. A new club has been organized within the past few day for the purpose of working for the same object. Representatives of these club Bay they have not selected any candidate to represent thorn In the directory , but hav been concentrating all their efforts to secure votes In the Interest of Miller park , and with these votes they purpose to secure tht election of men who will agree to supper Miller park when the question of location comes up for decision. The northslders say however , that they do not Intend to play "dog In the manger , " hut are open to con vlctlon If a more available or better site Is presented. They have opened an office Ii The Bee building adjoining the office of the secretary of the exposition and are dcvot Ing all their energies to gaining converts. The Southslde Improvement club , whlcl lias bcOn agitating the location of the f-x position In Rlvervlcw park , has selected W II. Hnnchvtt , R. J. Cornish and John Rush as their candidates for directors , and the name of F. K. Darling has since been added making four men whom the southslders w 11 endeavor to elect. The southslde residents do not make the question of location ai absolute condition of their support , but say they arc willing to let the question te settled on the theory of the greatest good to the greatest number. LABOR HAS A CANDIDATE. The Advertising Mon's association is fa vorable to the election of C. D. Thompson as director , Mr. Thompson being a member o that association. The Retail Grocers' association Is another organization which has a candidate In the person of its president , C. R. Courtney. The Letter Carriers' association has en dorsed W. M. Victor as Its candidate for director , and the- members arc busy In mak Ing deals to rocuro his election. The Manufacturers' and Consumers' as soclatlon has endorsed Its secretary , O. C Holmes , as a suitable man for director am the members of the association arc working for his election. The members of the city fire department * have urged Chief Rcdell to become a can dldate for director , and ttio chief has con Edited to stand for election to the position The local flro insurance men , with one exception , that ono exception being by far the heaviest subscriber among the fraternity held a meeting within the past few days am decided upon Chris Hartraan as their rep resentatlve , and they have been busy it canvassing for votes for his election. The labor organizations of the city wll hold a meeting Friday evening to decldi upon a man to represent them In the directory , and will also decldo.upon a course of action to secure his election. The labor organizations have solicited subscriptions among their members with a view of getting n representative on the board , but Hit leaders among them express some dis appointment at the result of the canvass. Besides these movements of organizations to secure the election of representatives a few Individual ) ! have announced themselves as candidates for election and there are surface. Indications which point to the sprouting of several more ambitions before the day of election appears. John A. Wake- Held , the present secretary of the exposi tion association , has announced himself as a candidate for election as a director. Mr , Wakufleld Is not a director In the board as at present constituted and the amended arti cles of incorporation do not require that the secretary shall be a director , but It Is claimed that there are many reasons why the secretary should ho a member of tlio bonrd of directors. Mayor ICnsor of South Omaha Is another who has announced himself as a candldato for election a a a representative of South Omaha , hut 1.01110 of the citizens of that nourishing suburb do not take kindly to the Idea and are opposing the ambitions of the mayor , W. B. Taylor has shied his castor Into the ring nnd Is a candidate for the position of director. The .payment of the 5 per cent assessment on stock subscriptions Is being made with reasonable speed , over 700 subscribers hav ing paid their assessments before noon ycster. day. The amount paid In Is about f-,100 and It has been found necessary to Increase the office force In the necretury's office by tlio addition of a clerk to receive subscrip tions and Issue receipts , An KxpoMKion OMAHA , Sept. 23 , To the Editor of The Dee ; As the location of the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition Is under discussion , It seems to ma that If wo want to rolsa the { 500.000 In Biibucrlptlon * , wo should not be In a hurry. If the directors are to choose the slln on noon as elected , subscriptions will cease , Why not leave the question of tlio location directly to a vote nf the stockholders , the vote to ho cniivasted not later than Decem ber 17 Then tlio north , west nnd Houth side lioomera will rustlu for stock , The director ; If elected October 1 will have plenty to do without mUliiK In tbo location fight.

The South Omaha city council , In Imposing an occupation tax of $1,200 on the Omaha Street Railway company , Is not giving the street railway people very much uneasiness. Ofilclals of the company say It Is only a variation of a scheme which has been worked on them for a long time to compel them to build an extension of their lines around one of the packing houses In order to Increase the retail business of the owners of said packing house. The officials say they have offered to build the extension and present It to the owners In question If they would operate It and cease annoying them , but they 1m vc not accepted the proposition. Regarding the resolution parsed by the city council ot the southern Miburb , pro hibiting the switching of street cars on Twenty-fourth street , near N , the street railway people say that If the people of South Omaha Insist on enforcing that resolu tion there will bo only one thing to do and that will be to run one train back and forth on each track from Omaha. That will give a thirty-minute service and the officials eay It might be possible to make the line pay expenses In that manner , as It has been Im possible to meet expenses with the servlcr now In force. It Is said by the street rail way ofllclals , however , that the- charter granted the company by the city of South Omaha provides for the laying and operat ing of double tracks , and they say they do not believe the charter can be amended or repealed by a resolution of the council.

A complaint has been filed against him In police court , charg ing him with formry. i Urnndhoefer and a companion wcro ar rested during the early part ot the summer for swindling an old soldier on a land deal. They borrowed $200. from the veteran upon security consisting of ia warranty deed to some properly In South Omaha. About two months later the , old soldier discovered that neither of the men possessed the prop erty , and consequently caused their arrest. During the trial It transpired that after the deal had been consummated Brand- hocfer had obtained a refusal upon the property In question , but had never taken any steps to purchase It. The case came to trial last month , and on August 15 both men were found guilty and bound over to the district court In the sum ot $1.000 each. Uramlhoefcr's compan ion succeeded In , obtaining bonds , but Brandhoefcr was not so successful , and has been spending his time In the county Jail. The new deal In which Bramlhoefcr ls implicated Is of a somewhat similar charac ter. The victim Is John C. Wlilpplc. Brandhoefcr represented himself as tlio agent of a railroad man , Will Bennett , who desired to borrow $50 upon a piano.Vhlp - plo was shown n plnno by Brandhocfer , and ho readily enough agreed to loan the money. A few days later Brandhoefer ap peared with n promissory note for sixty days , purporting to be signed by Bennett , and received the money. This occurred over two months ago , but when at the end ot that time neither Ben nett nor Brandhocfer appeared , Whlpplo commenced to get worried , and set about an Investigation. Ho learned that uo such person as Bennett was employed by any of lh railroads. Ho also discovered that the piano upon which he loaned the money never belonged to any Bennett , but was the property of a woman who had turned It over to Braticlhoefer for a few days for the purpose of effecting a sale.
