, Republican political machinery was busy
In Omaha Saturday afternoon, the county
committee, congressional committee and Ju
dicial committee each holding a meeting.
The general result was that tha county
commlttea failed t adopt Tom Blackburn's
plan for Joint primaries and adjourned
without transacting any buMnese what
ever. Tha congressional committee decided
to hold IH own primaries on September J,
"without tha aid r consent of any county
cen'ral commlttea on earth." In tha word
of tha chairman, while tha Judicial "com
mittee decided to merge Its primarlea with
tho congressional primaries aa far aa pos
sible The meeting of the county commlttea was
held en tha aeventh floor ef Tha Bee build
ing, sixty-live members being present or
represented by proxy. Chairman Cowell

a Joint primary, carried on at the Instance

M. 31. "Waring mved that the plan for
Joint Jjrinjajles fcs accepted., but Victor
Ilusswater presented a substitute motion,
snylng It would not alliiy factlonaUsm to
mix the county and congressional con
tests. . He ld he did not understand why
separate primaries should be held! in Doug

tion when they were not to be held In the
other counties of the district Provided
. Chairman Blackburn wished another Doug-i
las county primary, however, Mr. Rose
water was wiling he should have one con
ducted by the county committee and was
willing to glva him the apportionment he
desired, ',,
' Victor Rosewater bad at tha outset asked
Chairman Cowell . whether or' not the con
gressional convention had been called and
Mr. Cowell -responded In the negative.
Chairman Blackburn misled Chairman
Cowell by sitting silent when this ques
tion and answer were made, but a half
hour later,, after tha committee Waa about
to adjourn without ' approving the Joint
plan ha arose and declared that the call
for congressional convention had been
Issued, . although. It haa not been "pub
lished." Vaa there Is no law requiring Its
publication." ha said, "more than twenty
days prior to tha primary,".. He thus allowed-
tha lmpreesioo to prevail during the
entire meeting that the congressional con
vention had not been called and, then ex
posed his motive by announcing that It had
been called. , , " " .
Provisions of Resolution.
The 'resolution offered by Mr. Rosewater,
and which went .over to the, next meeting
for av vote, provides ior a primary election
of DcAiglas county vottra Friday, October
14 tA nominal a ominrv .an.t leuiala live
ticket, and the choosing of one member of
' the county committee for each of the even
.numbered voting districts In the cities of

tlcn arranges, for the nomination of one
candidate for senator from outside the city
of Omaha and one candidate each for the
legislature' from . South Omaha and the
country,, each county comm'saionerai.lp dis
trict to nominate Its own candidates.
After this resolution was submitted H. M.
Waring, raised the question rf the right of
the committee to Issue such a call. It was
broupht out that to have adopted It yes
terday would define the boundaries of the
voting districts without a five days' notice
of the meeting of the committee, a speci
fied In the primary election law. Mr. Rose
water thought this provision of the stat
utes directory, rather than mandatory, and
said that it would -.pply to the plan for
Joint primaries a well as to that for county
primaries. There was no .uetion that the
committeemen had not been notified Ave
days In advance Mr the meeting. Chair
man Blackburn and J. H. VanDusen gave
their opinion that five flsys' notice must
be given to have a lenal call.
When Blackburn had thus spiked his own
scheme J Fred Behm (hereupon moved en
adjournment for a week. This was amended
by lir Rowvster to an adjournment sub
ject t call by the "chairman, with full
notice subremient to the Issue of a calf for
a congressional convention.
Chairman Blackburn st this point gave
out the Information that lha call had been
lisur-J. tha'.: Ms corniiilttee had arranged
to meet during the afternoon to chernre the
date it the rntinry committee wanted an
other date.' Tha motion for Adjournment

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Car Track If art Be Taken Up and Lowered
Two Feet.
MISCALCULATION CAUSES THE WORK
City Kaclaeer Finds Ralls Were Ko
I.sld oa Grate, Which Woald
Have Interfered with
Tratfle.
Through a misunderstanding or a mis
calculation the south street car track on L
street,' from Twentieth to Twenty-fourth
streets will have to be tsken up and lowered
about two feet. This track was recently
laid on new tics and waa heavily ballasted
with cinders. When work on the north
track began Frldny the city engineer and
the street and alley committee poslttvoly
refused to permit the work to proceed until
the south track was lowered to the, grade
originally set Grading for the north track
now is going on and when this Is com
pleted tho south track will be lowered.
City Fnglneer Beal assarts thst It was
through no fault of the engineer's office
thst the south trsck was laid nearly two
feet above the established grade.
"Councilman Adklns and myself notified
the street railway people a number of times
that the south track was not being laid on
grade, but no attention was paid to us.
When the force was ready to lay the
north track we had to step In and stop
the work. Should the city have permitted
the tracks' to be laid above grade there
would not have been room enough for a
team on either side of the tracks. By lay
ing the tracks at grade the street can be
traveled by vehicles all right."
The double track now Is pfactlcally com
pleted from Thirteenth to Twentieth streets.
At Thirteenth street the east curved rsll
la laid and the west one Is about ready to
be laid. The west curve at Twentieth and.
Missouri avenue now Is being laid. It Is
thought that In .less than two weeks the
double track will be completed and Walnut
Hill ars can run through to the T at
O ' street, where they will switch
for Ihe return trip. When the paving on
Railroad avenue Is completed the Walnut
Hill cars will run clear to the county
line.
Material Arrlvea Monday. ,
It was stated last evening that material
for the curbing and paving of O street
would arrive Monday and that tha setting
of the curbing would begin Tuesday. This
artificial stone curbing will be laid In box
forms the same ss on Railroad avenue, as
this method is considered rapid and the
result is more satisfactory than when the
curbing Is molded at the works and then
set in sections. Contractor Parks la anxious
to have this street paved by tha time the
O street viaduct Is completed. He says
that he can do It if- there Is no delay In
the setting of the curbing.
niaaruated yvfth Delay.
City officials generally and the members
of the council street 'and alley committee
are still complaining about the delay In
getting to work paving Railroad avenue,
After the council passed a resolution noti
fying Contractor Hannon to get to doing
something, another gang of curb layers
was put on. Even with two gangs at work
only S,000 feet of curbing has been laid
since the work started.. What the city
officials want Is for the contractor to get
enough curbing set so that the paving can
begin, then let the curbers keep ahead of
the pavers.

ST. PETE RSBURO, July M.-4 a. m.
A badly mutilated dispatch from Ta Tohe
KIho, dated July , which has been re

of some Importance bad occurred on the
sea coast road between Kal Chau and
yin Kow. The dispatch states tbat the
Russian made a night attack on a forti
fied Japanese camp at Sangoss on the sea
coast north of Kal Chuu. They got
within close range and opened fire on the
camp before tbey, were discovered, and
forced the retirement of the Japanese
toward Ks4 Chau. Here a portion ef the
dispatch Is missing.
Apparently the attackers were enveloped
by a counter Japaneae movement, prob
ably by troop from some neighboring
position, for this whole region is slrong'y
fortified, and tha Russian detachment was
In danger of being cut off and annihilated.
When the Russians had given them
selves up for lost a welcome dlvemfon was
area ted In their rear by Captain Rotovxkl,
In command of three companies of Rusxlan
troops, who threw his force Into the fight.
