notes of an "up-country" stenographer,
presented little hut a comedy of errors.
grammatically, typographically and legally.
In his amended brief he says that It wan not
the duty of the warden to deliver the prop
erty, nor was It his nfllelal duty to permit
the sheriff of Lancaster county to enter
the ponltentlary building and take awny
any property unless by replevin or on the

GIVES LINCOLN A BLACK EYE
I.Hlinr Coniiiilnnlnnr r Kent Tnlkn nn

t'ltultul.
LINCOLN, Feb. 22. (Special.) Labor
Commissioner Kent today gavo to the press
tho following Interview concerning tho move
ment that Is now being made In this city
toward the organization of a building trades'
council:
"Nearly all the money paid for building
material goes out of tho state, not so with
that paid to labor, which goes Immediately
Into circulation and finds Its way into the
pockets of tho butcher and baker, etc. To
doublo tho wages of labor means to nearly
doublo the amount of money In circulation,
and to doublo tho volume of business done.
A penurious labor policy Is to a largo meas
ure responsible for tho empty buildings
around town, and low rents. People usually
build as an Investment; when wages rise
tho value of property rises also. Advance
wages and tho workman Immediately de
mands a better house, better carpets, more
clothing, etc. This means more stores,
larger stocks, moro people employed nnd in
turn more bouses, more clothing, etc., for
these people.
"Go abroad among working men and you
will find that Lincoln Is known far nnd wldo
as n low-wago town, not a very good adver
tisement, while tho carpenters In Omaha are
getting a minimum wage of 33 ceuts per
hour. Carpenters In Lincoln will not nver
ago moro than 20 cents per hour.
"It Is bardly necessary to repeat that It Is
no wonder thero Is n lack of business, and
a surplus of empty rooms In Lincoln. In-
.stead of organized labor being a menace, It
Is of untold economic value. It Is not only
of benefit to the employe, but to tho em
ployer as well. It prevents tho fair and
honest contractor from being driven either
to reduce the wages of his employes or go
to tho wall. It protects the public against
unfair and unscrupulous bosses, It teaches
tho artisan self-respect nnd Independence,
builds up the home and educates the chil
dren, Increases production nnd consumption,
In n word, advances civilization.

CONVENTION AT KANSAS CITY
(Continued from First Page.)
Chairman Jones announced that Representa
tive Levy of that Btato had announced that
ho desired to present New York's name, but
rts Mr. Levy wns not present New York wns
passed.
National Committeeman Campbell of New
York said ho hail no knowlcdgo that New
York desired Its name presented.
Chilian nf Creimi City.
Mayor Rose of Milwaukee presented the
claims of the Cream City. Hu opened with
a bit of pleasantry nt the expense of Mr.
Reed. Ho was not the prosecuting attorney
of Milwaukee, he said, nnd therefore could
not offer tho convention tho protection of his
office. (Laughter). However, as the mayor
of tho city, ho would Instruct tho police force
to prevent nny of the delegates or vlsltori
'o the convention from breaking Into the po
llco station.
Mayor Rose urged the selection of Mil
waukee for the great good It would do the
democracy. Missouri democrats wero en
titled to all credit for their democracy. Ho
had lived for years In Wisconsin, whero It
cost something to be n democrat. Whero
Is tho battle of the next campaign to be
fought, ho asked. In tho east, hope was
vain. In the extremo went there was great
danger cn the Issuew of expansion. The
otos for tho election of tho next demo
cratic president must como from the mid
dle west. Bight years ago Milwaukee had
asked for tho convention nnd had said:
"Wo could carry Wisconsin." They were
laughed nt. Yet Wisconsin wnn carried for
democracy. Now, although McKluluy car
ried Wisconsin by 100.000 majority, Mr.
Koso promised that the stato would this
ear glvo her electoral vote to Bryan.
This announcement was greeted with great
applause. Tho same clement which car
ried Wisconsin In 1892 was In Hympathy
with the democrats now, he said. The
hope of success for the democracy this fall
lay In tho German-Amorlran vote.
Ho was not here to say that If Milwaukee
did not get the convention the state would
go republican. Wisconsin would go demo
cratic, nnywuy. (Applause.) But this
much was duo tho democrats of Wisconsin.
He pointed to the fact thnt one of tho In
fluential Gorman newspapers of Wiscon
sin was now hostile to the administration.
With Its support thn democrats could and
would carry Wisconsin. "Show the Ger
mans, ' said he, "that the democrats nro
oppood to imperialism ad expansion tin.l
they will be with us." (Applause.)
He ...recalled tho furore created by the
speech of Representative Intz of Ohio in
Milwaukee. lat fall. He said It had Rroused
the Germann and that now four-fifths of
them woro opposed to Imperialism and Mc
Klnleylsm. Mayor Roso then turned to (ho
facilities of Milwaukee for accommodating
tho convention. In the matter of railroads,
hotel capacity and telegraphic facilities he
said the convention had nothing to gain by
going to Knnnas City. Besides, Milwaukee
had a summer climates far superior to that of
her rival. Tho determination of the con
vention city, he said, should not be a ques
tion of personal predelletlon, but of party
vol fa re.
CiMvlieril Prexent A ritmiir nts.
Representative Cowherd of Missouri rein
forced Mr. Reod's nrgument In favor of
Kaunas City. This city came not with
promises of tho future, but with her record
of the past.
In closing he said: "I appeal to you ns
men whoso breadth of view Is bounded by
no city's needs and no mnn's nmbltlon, ns
politicians In thn better and broader sense,
holding In your handfi your party's fate,
whether It be not better politics to reward
a friend than buy a foe. Whether It be not
better to recognize post scrvlcew nobly ren
dered than to pay In advance upon u promise
."lat will never bo performed. Knnsas City
-ordlally extends to you an Invitation and
tromlscs that If you choose to be her guests
tho stalwart democracy of all tho vest will
be waiting to welcome you nt her doors.
Bx-Governor Peck of Wlsconnln was tho
second speaker In behalf of Milwaukee. In
1S02, ho said, ho mado a funny speeoh be
fore the national committee and Milwaukee
lest the convention by one vote. Ho pro
pose! to take warning from that experience.
He devoted his time to Impressing upon tho
commltteo the neeosHlty of propitiating thn
German-Americans, who were now friendly
toward the democrney.
David Overmeyer of Knr.san mado the
closing speech for Kansas City. Ho
aroused much enthusiasm by saying that
platform nnd men were alrendy selected by
tho democracy of the whole country.
Representative Lcntz of Ohio closed for
Milwaukee, arguing that upon tho Germnn
vote, the fnto of tho next election would
hi n so. Milwaukee was the center of Ger
man art and literature. The Infiuence of
the convention forced out through German
ehannoln from Milwaukee could not be
overestimated. The Germans worn In ear
nest, he declared: they wanted an oppor
tunity to punish the MoKlnloy administra
tion. If the committee failed to win tho
election next fall it would fie because they
lost tho opportunity to get the German
vote.
