WORKING OUTOF NEW LAW
_
Vatcrn * Confen lon of Fnlth. Are ITse-
len Unlenn 'Heoorrtn Are
Available.
The working out of the new election law
providing for a record of the party aflUl-
attons of voters Is being watched with In
terest by city hall officials and by the politi
cians generally. It Is apparent that the In
tention of the statute wae to assure as far
as poselble the purity of party primaries
and was , therefore , framed In the Interest
ot the public rather than of nny particular
party.
At present the record of the political stand
token by the 17,000 voters of Omaha Is In
the files of the city clerk's office , where it
Is not sufficiently accessible for the pur
pose It wan Intended to servo.
The measure being ono of public utility
rather than tor any partisan advantage tbo
different central committees could not be
definitely relied upon to undertake the ex
pense and labor ot transcribing the lists
Into available form for reference at the pri
maries. As the work could be done far more
conveniently and economically by the city
clerk's office , the following resolution was
accordingly adopted by the city council last
Monday night :
Itesolved , That the city clerk be and Is
hereby authorized to , nnd directed to , em-
liloy at once nt an expense not to exceed
j75 a typewrltlst nnd assistant to copy the
lists ot voters registered as affiliating with
the republican , democratic , "populist and
silver republican parties and to furnish cer-
tltlcd copies of the. same to the city and
county committees of the respective parties ,
the said expense to be charged to the gen
eral fund.
fund.All rartlCH Arc SatlnUed.
The resolution was passed unanimously ,
with the exception of Stunt ; Burkley , the
democratic member , being the first to record
his vote In Its favor. The present low con
dition of the general fund was not looked
upon as a serious objection , as the outlay
Involved , in Itself Insignificant , could await
the next levy. If the copying were under
taken by the central committees , on the
other hand , the cxpenso and labor would
be multiplied , each one of the four parties
which maintain an organization being com
pelled to go through the records separately.
The resolution now In the bands of the
mayor IB still unacted on. The only objec
tion made to the measure is that the ex
pense Is not made necessary by the statute ,
which simply provides that "tho committee
of any political party desiring to hold pri
mary elections shall have the right to copy
into books provided by said committee the
names of all parties registered as affiliating
with such political party. " No one disputes
that the copying must bo made to carry out
the purpoee of the law and that the several
committees are also under no obligation to
undertake tbo task.

DEMOCRATS SHOW HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE
Lemon * Tnnglit by the Conduct of

Out for llcncfU of lle-
ItultllonuM. _
"Talk about a machine and machine meth
ods dominating the republican patty , what
about the fuslonlsts ? " exclaimed a prom
inent republican yesterday.
"Just look at what the democratic com
mittees are doing. Every candidate elected
on the fusion ticket Is being brought Into
line to place nil his appointments at the ells-
pcaal ot the campaign managers , who are
taking It upon themselves to name every
person put upon the pay rail. The candi
date Is forcibly made to understand that he
owes his place to the party and that he
ought to bo satisfied with that , and that nil
the places under him belong to the parly
and ought to bo considered by Its man
agers.
"And In the distribution , too , the demo
crats ore carrying things with a high hand.
They are cutting up the pie Into so many
pieces , saying how much shall go to the
populists and how much to the democrats
and then , within each ot these political folds ,
they are saying which piece shall go to the
Germans , which piece to the Bohemians ,
which piece to the Jews , which piece to the
Irish and leaving the remnant for the or
dinary American , This Is machine with a
vengeance.
Ilritnlillrnn * at Fnult.
"But then , I don't think the- democrats are
far wrong. The trouble with the republicans
has been that they have Ignored
the commonest dictates ot self-protection
and self-preservation. Just look at
the county court house as It la now. Every
man appointed has been put In his place by
the officer abe vc htm and recognizes allegi
ance , not to the party , but to the man who
appointed him. Half ot the offices are filled
with men who are of no eartWy use to the
party ; aomo of them relatives of their su
periors , and others sons , cousins and broth
ers of other officeholders who have traded
to have their own dependents taken care of
by a fellow officer In return for like favors.
The judges appoint their bailiffs as personal
rewards to recognize work done for them In
dividually In primaries instead of appointing
workers to whom the party Is under obliga
tion.
"By this indiscriminate distribution the
balance between different sections and dif
ferent nationalities Is lost sight of. South
Omaha bos complained that It has not re
ceived fair recognition. The reason haa been
that the committees In the past have failed
to take charge of the distribution of the ap
pointive places.
"Tho same Is true with reference to the
different nationalities , such as the Swedes ,
the Germans nod the Bohemians. One office
will be bunched with three or four Ger
mans , while another Is loaded up with
Swedes and still another caters entirely to
tha old soldier. The trouble with the re
publican party _ has been that It has not
had enough machine work of the kind now
being exhibited by the democrats. We may
learn come lessons from them and if we
do , wo will benefit from them as soon as
the disappointments of aspirants for fusion
favors begin to operate as an Inevitable
leaven ot demoralization.
Mnklii { Olllcelioldern Cough Un.
"Another place where I see the demo
cratic machine has been getting In Its' work
haa been In assessing the democrats al
ready drawing salaries. The published state
ment of their treasurer offers an interest
ing bit of Information. Every man put In
office by the fuslonlsts had to contribute to
their campaign. The county attorney and
his deputies put up from $75 down to $20
apiece. Just think of the county auditor
being held up for $40 and his clerk for
$27. Think of the superintendent of the
county hospital giving $50 , the engineer
$38 and five other employes $5 apiece. Think
of making the superintendent ot the court
house produce $25 and the three Janltora
go down In their pockets for $15 each.
"Did any ono ever hear ot a republican
county commissioner contributing $54 to the
campaign in a year In which his own can
didacy was not at stake ? Yet two demo
cratic county commissioners are credited
with these contributions. . The county phy
sician Is In for $15 and even Secretary Gun-
solus was required to put up $27 out of his
salary , although he got back $150 as com
pensation for bis services to the committee.
"The point to be emphasized Is that this
Is all done by the party of reform , whereas ,
If the republicans had asked a janitor era
a subordinate clerk to put up a reasonable
campaign contribution a holler would have
been raised that would have been heard
all the way to Council Bluffs. And yet
they say the republican party Is being con
trolled by a machine. If fo , the democratic
combination muet have an Improved auto
matic , self-propelling mechanism 'that Is so
modern as to belle the name machine. "

The democratic exccutlvo committee will
meet again with the successful candidates
for county offices this afternoon to try to
assist them In smoothing out the ugly kinks
arising from their unsuccessful ambition to
make twenty-two appointive offices within
their control go around among the four
score hungry asplrauto who consider them
selves each Individually entitled to recogni
tion , Of course the committee cannot make
these twenty-two places reach any farther
than can the men who have the naming of
their assistants , but the committee can bring
many shoulders to tbo task of bearing the
blame and quieting the unsuccessful as
pirants with promises of future recogni
tion. Treasurer-elect BUaaser has relied
somewhat upon the committee In selecting
his appointments , but members of the com
mittee are raising a persistent kick be-

At a meeting ot the Commercial club com
mittee on railroads and transportation
Thursday evening It was decided to hold n
conference wllh the lending railroad man
agers as noon as arrangements for auch n
meeting can be perfected. , Members of the
club desire that better freight facilities bo
accorded to tbo merchants ot South Omaha.
A request will also be made that freight
depots be located In convenient places. The
Mltsourl Pacific freight office IB situated be
tween the railroad tracks just north of the
L street viaduct. In order to rcnch this
depot with n team It Is necessary to drive
to F street and thcnco nouth , between the
tracks to the depot. Patrons ot the Mis
souri Pacific arc thus greatly Inconvenienced
nnd complaints are frequently made about
the dangerous locality In which the depot
Is located.
This committee ot the club will also en
deavor to have the Burlington hasten the
erection of the proposed passenger station
near Thirty-sixth and L. streets. During
the Rummer the Burlington tnado a great
many Improvements In the northwest part
of the city. The main line tracks wore
straightened and quite a number of side
tracks were laid. Trains now stop at the L
street crossing , but much better service
could be given If a depot were erected and a
bus run between the heart of the city nnd
the depot at train times. Freight for South
Omaha coming In over the Elkhorn road In
unloaded at the Webster street depot. A
long haul over roads not any too good Is
thus mndo necessary. It Is understood that
the Elkhorn road owns land In this city
which Is exactly suited to freight depot pur
poses , nnd the managers of the road will bo
urged to erect n depot or else make some
arrangement for the landing of freight for
local merchants at some other depot in
this city.
It Is the Intention of the committee to
confer with the merchants of South Omaha
nnd learn their wishes as well 03 hearing
complaints against tbo system of handling
freight now In vogue. When It Is ascer
tained just what Is needed a visit will bo
paid to the railroad managers with a view to
seeing what can he done toward giving
Maglo City merchants better freight facil
ities. Another meeting of the committee
will bo held next Tuesday evening for the
purpose of formulating some plan of action.

been considered a good business proposition ,
but what can a man do ? Ho ships nearly
all his cattle to market nnd takes the winter
chances on such young stuff as he can pick
up , rather than be driven out of the stock'
business. Still , with an ordinary winter , the
result must be a heavy winter loss. AH

It can bo taken as a general maxim
that no person under -JO should be un
able to see clearly at a distance with
the slasses used for reading. If you
are below that age and have to take off
your reading glasses to see nt ti distance ,
or have to wear two pairs , you can be
sure your glasses do not lit you. Many
people suffer much unnecessary trouble
from this cause. Our business Is to rem
edy all such blunders.
