PUNCTURE THAT NONPARTISAN SLATE
Dvtie ad Yelaer io On Democratic
Ticket and Day on Populist,
Makloac th Two
tdeatlral.
A plan whereby the democratic) and pop
Ullst judicial tlrkets will be radically
changed and whereby changes also will be
mads tn the republican judicial ticket has
baen worked out by leaders of the demo
cratic and populist parties and will. If they
can do so, be carried out tn a few days. It
Involves:
First The withdrawal of Judges Itaxter's
and Estells's names from the democratlo
ticket. , . ,
Second The putting on the democratlo
ticket of Judge Donne and John O. Yeiser.
Third The filling in of the place left va
cant on the populist ticket with the name of
Judge Day.
Fourth The elimination of the word
"democratic" on the republican ticket after
the names of Judges Baiter and Katelle.
Fifth The making Identical, by the above
changes, of the democratic and populist
tickets.
While both democratic and populist lead
en fought shy of fathering the above plan,
they admit that It bus been considered, and
that after the statutes governing nomina
tions had been thoroughly Investigated they
bad arrived at the conclusion tbat it can
be carried out without any difficulty.
Da to Judges' Action.
The opening- wedge In the matter, they
state, was the failure of Judges Uaxter and
RateUe to ft la with the county clerk and
eacratary of slat the statements required
br sactloa 3. article 10, chapter xxvl, Com
piled tututaa, Judg iJay. being the or.ly
repubUran candidate endorsed by the demo
crats wbo filed such a statemer.L. This fail
ure on the Vrt of Jndrr Baxter and Ks
teUe, It is stated, leaves two vacancies on
the derruKTatfo ticket-to be filled by the
comrolttc andleavea the way open to com
plete fusion, with the popu!lsts. .
The section mentioned rrovlilee that every
person who shall be a candidate before any
eauoua. convention or primary ehall within
ten day file with the ro.iuly clerk, and a

copy with the secretary of state, a state
ment of tho expensca Incurred by him st
such caucus, convention or primary. The
next section provides for the filing of state
ments of election expenses.
Section 6 of the same chapter provides
a penalty of $1,000 fine for failure to com
ply with the preceding two sectlonn, and
soctlon 6 disqualifies candidates who did
not comply with sections 8 and 4, forbid
ding the Issuance of commissions or certifi
cates to them, and coududes:
No person required by the foregoing sec
tions of this act to tllo a statement or
statements shall enter upon the duties of
any office to which he may be elected until
he shall have filed all statements and
duplicates provided for by the foregoing
sections of this act. nor ahull be rtnmlvx
any salary or emoluments for any period
prior to the filing of the same.
Purlng the discussion ot the above sec
tions the question as to whether or not
Judges Baxter or Kstelln really were
candidates before the democratic con
vention, and whether, providing they
did not expend any money to ob
tain such nominations, It was neces
sary for them to file statements, were
mined and answered In the affirmative.
It was stated that In the view of the law
they were candidates, even If thy did
not solicit the - nominations, they being
present and represented by their friends,
and that the fact of them not having ex
pended any money, providing they did not
expend any, did not relieve them frum
making the statement.
Day Barred from Iteniural.
As Judge Day did file such a statement,
the democratlo committee could not re
move him from the ticket, and opposition
to doing so, even If the committee had the
power, was expressed. Among the pop
ulist leaders huilge Day did not appear ho
popular, though he was declared not par
ticularly objectionable, and In order to
make the two tickets Identical it has Iwen
tacitly screed that thj populist committee
put his name on the populist ticket.
The democratlo and populist ticket under
this arrangement will read: Huy, Dickin
son, Dosne, FVrguson, Page, Head. Yeiser.
'A member of the democratlo committee,
who decliiU'U to allow his names to be
quoted, said:
. "We have not asked Judge Baxter or
Judge Katelle anything- ehuut the matter,
nor do I suppose they will be asked any
thing about 1U The fact of their having
failed to comply with a plain provision of
the law Is equal to a declining of the nom
ination on their part, so we are under no
tilleatlors to them from that side of the
caie. 1'rom the legul side their failure
to die statements leaves two vacant-lea mi
the democratic ticket fur the committee to
fill, il we till them with two other numcx,
any tno other names. Judges Baxter and
KiUUe, If they want the democratic en
dorsement t that extent, can go Into the
courts, but we are satisfied that the !-(Ulo-i
would be against them. They could
not cbtuin a mandamus compelling us to
put their names on the ticket, and unless
the committee Is forced to do so. other
names will be substituted. ys, I think
It will be Doane and Yeiser."

Reports from the deputy assessors as
to the results of the searching Investiga
tion demanded by the new law are few at
the office of the tax commissioner, but
those that have made an expression have
declared that little difficulty is experienced
in obtaining sworn statements. Few, If
any, large property owners have been ap
proached, however, and it remains to be
seen whether or not the taxpayers possess
lng large sums of money on deposit or in
vested In securities will stand the Inquisi
tion as unflinchingly as the small property
owner.
Kach assessor has a book containing 103
blank sch6dulcs, and not until these are all
delivered does he report to headquarters
and secure a new book of schedules after
depositing the stubs of the blanks de
livered. As this exchange has to be made
every few days It affords a way for the
commissioner to keep In touch with his
assistant,
Woman gel. Precedent.
The first completed schedule for the 1P04
taxes was delivered Thursday by a woman
and it showed an advance of more than
$175 In personal holdings over last year.
The blank schedule had been left at her
home during her absence nnd she had filled
it out, sworn to It before a notary and
dispatched It to the city hall. Last year
her schedule contained no mention of
"money." This year It sets forth that sho
has $175 on deposit In bank.
Commissioner Fleming construes this as
r. good omen. He believes that thousands
of dollurs In cash, securities, mortgagesf
notes and bonds, which has heretofore es
caped taxation, will be Included on the
lists this year and he anticipates the heav
iest total assessment value in the history
of Omaha.
Rome of the assessors are adopting a
new method of work so as to labor the
required eight hours each day with the
best results. They split the day into three
shifts, from 6 to 9 in the morning, from
noon till 2 and from 6 to 9 In the evening,
on the theory that they will find the head
of the family at home during one of these
periods. One assessor, who has put the
plan into effect, has succeeded In getting
CO per cent of his schedules sworn to and
delivered Into bis hands without making a
second call.
