Executive Committee la
i Kerned ta Control.
Over 100 representative old settler- of the
city of Omaha were guests of Dr. George
X. Miller at his home Saturday evening,
renewing" old acquaintances and associa
tions with the object of bringing Into exist
ence what was to be known as the "Old
Settlers' club." Dr. Miller, however, after
naming Judge George 13. Lake as chairman
of the meeting, made an introductory ad
dress, In which he stated that after In
quiring of a number of the persons Inter
eeted that the organization of such a club
was unnecessary, but It had been auggnated
that the gathering continue to meet In a
social way from time to time at the homes
of the different parties, such meetings to be
held once a week. Instead of monthly, us
bad been contemplated. After deliberating
quite a time. It was suggested by Edward
Rosewater that, next year being the semi
centennial of the state of Nebraska, It
would be a feasible plan to perfect an or
ganization for the proper celebration of
this ajoknt and have an executive committee
appointed to take the matter In hand and
Arrange the preliminary details.
' This suggestion was heartily endorsed by
f. M. Woorworth end General Charles F.
JVtanderson, who made short addresses and
Judge Lake then appointed the following
representative men as the committee: Dr.
George K Miller, chairman; E. Rosewater,
J. I .Redlck, James M. Wool worth. C. F.
Manderson, J. N. II. Patrick, II. W. Yates,
James E. Boyd, B. B. Kennedy, Guy C.
Barton, O. W. Doane and St. A. D. Bal
combe. The committee Is vested with
power to solect subcommittees and report
action at the next meeting of the organisa
tion, which will be held at the call of the
chairman.
Genesis of the Moveroeat.
Sometime over a month ago Miss Ollmore
of this city and her sister, Mrs. Huff of
Chicago were the guests of Judge Doane
at his home. They being old residents of
the city, the Judge Invited a few of the
early settlers to his home and the evening
was spent talking of the ancient daya of
Omaha. Dr. Miller was highly enthused
over the meeting, and It was at his sug
gestion that the meeting waa held at his
home last evening. In the meantime, Mr.
Rosewater was aproached on the subject
and he suggested that as next year is
the semi-centennial of the state it would
be a wise plan to defer action In the direc
tion of forming the settlers' club, and pre
pare for the proper celebration of the
golden Jubilee of Nebraska. Thus waa the
nucleus formed which will culminate in a
big event for the coming year.
In his address Mr. Rosewater said: "Al
though I was not a resident of this city
when It was staked out, I have been here
for the past forty years. A community like
Omaha cannot afford to let an opportunity
like this slip by, It being the occasion of the
golden Jubilee of the state. It la not known
the exact date on which the first white
ettlers arrived here, but by act of congress
Nebraska became a territory on May to,
ISM. and on October ( of the same year Mr.
Burt, who had been appointed governor,
crossed the Missouri river and settled on
this aide. The city of Omaha proper waa
taked out by the late A. D. Jonea and it
la about May SO that the celebration should
take place. It may probably he held at the
capital, but ought to be held here. How
ever, thia Is a matter that the State His
torical aoojety will daclda."
. o the Ccleeratlea.
Mapping out the plan of the celebration
itr. Rosawater continued! "The state set
tler, of JVT ought to have the preference,
then would follow the Inviting of the fra
ternal orders; first, the Masonic, which I
believe organised their first lodge In the
atate at Bellevue. After them would come
the elvlo societies and then the Ak-8ar-Ben
would take the matter up and Instead of
having floats emblematic of the poets, we
might use floats of a memorial nature, on
which could be portrayed the old log cabin,
the stage coach and the Caneetoga wagon.
A collection of the mementoes and hlstort
eal papers ahould be made which could be
preserved In our libraries for the future
n-eneratlone.
"My Bret recollection et Omaha was when
tt.had a population of about 4,000 people,
and I have watched it grow constantly
until the present time, when we can num
i' bar almost 130.000 population, If we Include
South Omaha, which Is adjacent to our city.
It la therefore expedient that we have an
. executive committee appointed to take the
natter In charge,"
General Manderson followed Mr. Rose
water, saying: "If we make, this a atate
celebration the money ahould be appropri
ated by the legislature and as this Is not
a . time when that body Is In session we
can hardly rely upon that source. The
State Historical society has not the funds
sufficient to .carry out the plans and. In
my Judgment, the celebration should be
confined to the towns alonir the river. The
only really old town In what may be called
out the state Is Columbua and It Is doubt
fnl If we would draw many participants
In the celebration from places other than
those along the river."

OUT TO MAKE CLEAN FIGHT
J ad s;e Barnes Decries Tafalr Cam
paign at Roaalasr Meetlaa; ta
lath Ward.
The Sixth and Eighth ward republicans
opened a fresh case of enthusiasm Saturday
night In Idlewlld hall. Twenty-fourth and
Grant streets, and each speaker In turn
was received with manifestations of ap
proval by the large audience and was re
warded by hearty applause at every point
made In favor of republican candidates.
Judge Barnes began his talk by saying
that It was not proper for one running
for a high Judicial position to talk on par
tisan politics and that he was present
merely to get acquainted.
"When the supreme court created the
Judicial commission," said the Judge,
"there were on file 1,900 cases for hearing
before the supreme court. There are now
only 800, and In April, when six of the
Judges will conclude their services, the
slate will be cleaned up and a man can
get a hearing In the supreme court Inside
of six months. This Is what the commis
sion has done. I have been an avowed
candidate for the supreme Judgeship, and
since I have been on the commission my
work has been subjected to tho white light
of public scrutiny. So I now feel gratified
at the nomination and feel competent to
perform the duties of the office If elected.
It has twice been said publicly In the
commission that I was eminently fitted
for this position.
"An old acquaintance I met on the street
the other day said that the party had not
been so united for thirty years. I have
always said that if the republicans In this
county were united thz-y would be an Irre-
Isilble power In state politics.
I will say of my opponent, that he Is a
good man and If I can't defeat him without
lampooning him and making him ridiculous
before the public, God knows I don't want
the election. But I think It la time we did
away with the fusion majority on the su
preme bench. It has been claimed against
me that I am dominated by the corpora
tions. Let me aay right here and now
that this Is absolutely false. I waa never
on the payroll of any company. It Is true
that I have tried many cases for the rail
roads, but only In this way, that I waa
hired by their attorney, and that when
the case was completed I handed In my
bill to him, the same as to any other
client. I don't say this as an apology. If
didn't feel that I have the strength and
manhood to decide cases against a cor
poration on their merits, I would not be
here asking you for your suffrages."
J. E. Van Gilder made a rousing speech.
In regard to the trusts he aald:
"It is true the trust question Is heard
of now and then, but It Is also true that
there Is a trust question In . every pros
perous country. There baa been now a
shrinkage of millions of dollars In trust
capital lately, but this Is because they
were overcapitalised. There Is room for
trusts doing honest business. All that Is
necessary to do with the trusts la to let
them take care of themselves, and If they
are doing an honest business they will
succeed, and If they are overcapitalised
they will go to pieces ta hundreda have.
The republican party la the beat fitted to
deal with the trust queatlon."
Others who spoke were: w. O. Sears cf
Tekamah. Jacob Kaley, Charles Unltt, P.
E. Edqulst, Judge D. M. Vlnsonhaler, W.
W. Bingham, W. Altstadt, W. A. Eastman,
F. W. McGlnnls, Joseph Marrow and Jack
Kenworthy.
The republicans have planned to hold a
rousing meeting at Elkhorn Tuesday night.
Postmaster Witt will preside and E. J.
Cornish, J. H. Van Dusen and T. A, Holl!s
ter are billed for the speakers.

In regard to criticisms about his stand In
the matter of the Nolan nonpoUtlcal reso
lution passed by the fire and police board
Thursday night, Chairman Vanaant haa
this to say:
I have talked with a number of votera,
both republicans and democrats, and never
found but ohe man who found any fault
with my action and this man Is the known
tool of Tommy Nolan. As tar as there
being a lot of strange faces In the fire
and police departments for violating the
Nolan resolution, I will aay that If the
board acea fit to make a lot of strange
faces those who vote for such action will
have to be financially responsible for It. I
have secured the best legal advice and
have been assured that no 'policeman or
fireman can be removed from his position
without cause. This being a free country.
any man has a right to exercise his own
mind and Judgment when off duty. Fur
ther, In case the board discharges any man
In Its employ for violating the Nolan reso
lution I am given to understand by at
torneys that such discharged employe can
recover from the board Individually and
also from the city. As for the charge that
acted like a schoolboy In countermand
ing that portion of the resolution which
related to the actions of men when off
uty, I will say that no jne but a school
boy would ever have Introduced such a
resolution."
All policemen have been Instructed to
keep out of politics when on duty, but
when off duty to do as they pleased. The
remen have, however, been Instructed to
obey the resolution until Chief Garrett re
turns to the city.

vere cold and it resulted in pneumonia."
says Mr. Bert Hatch of South Dayton. N.
T "For five days and nights I could not
sleep, was constantly coughing. Mr. J. J.
Rundell, knowing of my illness, sent me
a bottle of Chamberlaln'a Cough Remedy,
and In a ahort time It gave me relief, ao
that I could aleep, and two bottles of the
remedy cured ma I had taken five dif
ferent remedies, but could get no relief
until I began ualng Chamberlaln'a Cough
Remedy. Too much can not be aald for
such a medicine." When a druggist takes
the liberty of sending a medicine to a
friend you may know that the remedy
sent Is a good one.
