A deadly quiet has eattled over Omaha
while the world goes n-summcrlng. Those
unfortunates who , because of stress of
business or other equally cmbarasslng con
ditions , are compelled to endure the "dog
days" of August nt homo , spend their even
ings in the cool and beauty of the expo
sition grounds. Teas and dinner parties
with the requisite nil ft collar and dress
suit hold no alluring charms. In a few
weeks , however , society will bo taking up
her usual round of gaiety and bo summoning
her devotees from mountain , sea , auJ
plain for the entertainment of the "strang-
eh within her gates. "

The scandals Incident to the recent dem
ocratic primaries has called attention to
tbo new law governing the holding of pri
maries which go Into effect after the next
regular registration of voters. This law
was framed by Senator Van Dusen and Is In
tended to protect primary elections and also
to punish offenses committed thereat.
AH persons who are legal voters shall have
the right under this law to participate In
primary elections , but shall bo subject to
such political qualifications as may too pro
scribed by law or laid down 'by ' the commit
tee. In order that none but those affiliat
ing with and being members of any political
party shall participate In any primary elec
tion a system for the registration of such
persons has been provided. Supervisors of
registration will note In foooks to be provided
for the purpose the political party which
the applicant for registration affiliates with.
In this way It is hoped that the packing
of primaries may be obviated , at least tea
a great extent. In all primary elections held
under this act the officers for each election
district shall consist of two Judges and one
clerk and their duties and responsibilities
shall bo precisely the same as those legally
appointed and regularly qualified officers of
regular state elections.- These primary offi
cers are to be appointed by resolution passed
by a majority vote of the members of the
regularly organized and constituted com
mittee or governing authority of the politi
cal party holding such primary election. Be
fore entering upon their duties these Judges
and clerks shall "be required to take the
same oath required to bo taken by officers
of regular state elections. Officers for
primary elections must bo selected at least
ton days 'before ' primary elections are held.
The provisions of this law apply to all pri
mary elections held for the purpose ot
nominating candidates for state , county , dis
trict or municipal officers.
As the regular registration must first bo
made/ before this law goes Into effect the
ilrst opportunity given to work under the
new provisions will bo next spring , when a
mayor , city treasurer , city clerk , police
Judge and four members of the council are
to "bo elected.
ComiilniiitH About Snlvnllon Army.
Complaints nro frequently made by busi
ness men about the Salvation army meet
ings which are held at the corner of Twenty-

llco Carroll stated that hereafter ho pro
posed to confine these meetings to atreets
en which there are no car tracks. Captain
Rosnan of the local corps is to ba request
ed to stop holding meetings on the corner
mentioned and if ho compiles with the re
quest all will be well , but If ho does not
Chief Carroll says that ho will then be com
pelled to take steps to see that ho does.
Business men object to the crowds blocking i
the sidewalks , streets and doorways for an I
hour or more every evening and several
complaints have been made to the police
about the matter.

A process on trUl In Australia that prom-
ieca to enable owners to retain all the ad
vantages of branding without suffering the
loss that results from it , Is attracting the
attention of stockmen of this country. This ;
process consists substantially of using a .
caustic paste c the 'branding ' Iron which removes - ;
moves the hair and prevents It growing ,
again , thus stamping the brand on the hide |
Indelibly while at the same time It does ;
not sear nnd destroy the texture ot the ekln.
In other words the brand only goes deep
enough to destroy the hair follicles , thus
preventing It from growing again on the '
brand. Such an Improvement would be
worth many thousands ot dollars to the cat
