TITB OMATTA DAILY HEE: TUESDAY, AtTOURT 9, 1004. 3 KJLi ( LINE DRAWN ON PARKER MEN Populists Promise Bolt Unless Political Ooodi Are Unadulterated. THOMPSON IS WILLING TO RUN AGAIN feeretery Bennett 'of Board of Eiil Isatlaa Prepares Table of Com paratlvo Valaatloa ( Each Coaaty la the Stale. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Au. 8 (Special.) Should the twpullRt state convention, which niMti here next Wednesday, endorse a man or nomi nate a man who refuses to say that he will not vote for Farker and Davis an attempt will be made by a number of poptilleta to bolt the convention and nomi nate a straight ticket, falling In that, 28,0(iO of them will remain at home on elec tion day and refuse to vote. On this proposition T. II. Tibbies, the vice presi dential nominee on the populist ticket, said: . "No man who will not come out publicly and say he Is against Parker and against Roosevelt can secure a place on the popu list ticket. If he does secure a place there will be a bolt or 20,000 or 30,000 populists will not vote In the coming election. I have snid this before and that I am correct Is proven by a number of letters received from prominent populists out In the state by Mr. De France and by me." . Dr. P. L Hall, chairman of the demo cratic state committee, does not apprehend such dire calamities should a Parker demo crat get on the populist 'ticket. He said: "I believe Mi at the two parties will get together and that there wilt be no occasion for a bolt or for any 'populist staying at home. While, of course, there are many extremists In each party, the wiser counsel will prevail and a ticket satisfactory to all will be put together." Both men expressed doubt as to the likelihood of Judge Holcomb securing the gubernatorial nomination and Mr. Tibbies announced positively that Senator Allen would not accept the nomination. Dr. Hall is of the opinion that If the candidate Is elected from the democratic end of the aggregation W. H. Thompson or ex-Congressman Shallenbargcr will be named, while If he Is selected from among the populists Judge Westover, G. W. Berge or i x-Congressman Sutherland will be ths (Sacrifice., , . Thompson la Willing;. . It Is told now on what Is considered most reliable authority that Mr. Thompson will accept the nomination If It is tendered to him In. the proper manner. Just what la the "proper" manner Is not clear, but It Is supposed to be the unanimous action of both parties. , The mid-road populists ore dead set against Judge Holcomb, while at the same ' time they are saying that he made a most excellent executive. They have Informa tion that Colonol J. H. Ager, the Burling ton lobbyist and political pusher, has been out In the state for some time setting up Jilns for the Judge, and whether the In formation the populists have Is correct or not, It hft certainly set them against Hol comb as muoh as anything could. Some friends of Governor Mlukey, however, fear the nomination of Governor Boyd of Omaha more than they do of Holcomb or any of those mentioned for the place. Today the name ofWUl Maupln, who Is connected, with Bryan's Commoner, was sprung for lieutenant governor. Maupln just now is running a labor paper, and It Is; tfidnght ,by"tose',"wh,6 afe fathering his boom that' h would get a good sized labor vote. The big leaders In the party, how ever, believe that Maupln Is too light weight to get In the running. The populist committee has secured the Hagenow band to help out on the enthusi asm, and the aong written by T. H. Tibbies will be one of the numbers played. It will be sun by Mrs. Barrls, a daughter of the vice presidential nominee. The band was secured out of respect to Mr. Watson, who is fond of music, having four pianos in his own home. The band will play only popular pieces. None of the delegates has arrived yet, but by tomorrow evening It la supposed enough of them will have come In to mix the medicine In a satisfactory manner. Democrats Are Scare. Tonight ' only Jim Dahlman, national committeeman, and Colonel Hayward of . Chadron from out of town had gathered In to prepare for the fracas. Mr. Dahlman expressed himself" as being sure it would be no trouble for the two parties to get together, but he was unable to say upon what basis. . One Parker democrat, who usually knows what he is talking about, said the demo crats would be willing to sacrifice the na tional electors In order to bring about fusion on the state and legislative tickets. The democrats, he said, would demand that Holcomb be the nominee for governor oa this basis. He felt confident this would be the program. That a big fight la In atore, however, there la little doubt, as there la much - feeling between the Parker democrats and the populists, exemplified in the Holt county convention held Satur day at O'Neill. . In the democratic conven tion Jack Harrington, the mayor, a brother of Judge and M. P. Harrington, was un seated on a contest with D. A. Doyle, who was a postmaster under Cleveland. Har rington had been seated by the credentials committee and the charge against him was that he had called a snap convention. Another Instance that will not serve to ,unlte the parties occurred to Judge Har rington when he went to notify the demo cratic convention what the populists had done. As be went into the hall someone mentioned the name of Parker, whioh waa heered. Judge Harrington Is quoted aa saying! "I wanto applause fromPnrk"- demo crats."

Upon arrival at the townslte of Gregory this morning It was found that a lnrgo number of "sooners" had taken possession, a,nd with the evident Intention of holding the townslte by force, had built barbed wire fences around the lots,' having had same surveyed by three surveyors whom they had taken, out last week and who had surveyed and platted the townslte. It Is said that they have made the statement that they intended to hold the locations they have selected by force, If need bo, and the result will be a townslte war, and bloodshed la expected. There cannot possibly be more than two good towns and the fight for supremacy and later for the county seat will be very bitter, no doubt, although at the town of Burke' every effort is being made to pre serve law and order, with good success. Burke la much nearer the geographical center of the reservation, but it Is under stood that the holders of Nos. 1, t, I and 4 will locate adjoining Gregory, and Judge Adams of Lawton, Okla., Colonel James of Lenlxa, Kan., and Charley Lamb of Lawton, Okla., immigration agent for the 'Frisco system, are., using their Influence for the town of Gregory. At the town of Burke there were very few "sooners," and what few there was have been Induced to Join the townslte organization by paying $1 to the promoter, C, J. Conner, who has very good control over his company and expects to get everyone located in an amicable manner by placing all names In 'envelopes and drawing for location as soon as the slto has been surveyed and platted. Already business locutions are being planned for and lumber will be hauled to the new town at once and business places put In operation at the earliest possible date. The organization, of which C. J. Conner is the head. Is on the ground and Is harmonloua as a whole and will no doubt keep down all lawlessness. The method of drawing for location Is the only way possible to locate so large a body of claim ants without trouble and thjs will be the method used at the townslte of Burke. Harried on the Gronnda.

Return, LATTER ROAD COMES TO OLD SCHEDULE General Belief Is Other Lines Will De Compelled' to Give in sad Lift Embargo from Oat City. :'H It begins to look very much as If Otnaml had won ltd fight against the discrimina tion of the railroads in favor of Kansas City, Bt, Joseph and even Council Bluffs on coal rates. There Is a break In tho ranks of the railroads and the Indications are strongly In favor of a. disruption of the concert that has existed between ths various roads. ' Omaha has protested vigorously, through the Commercial club and through ths con sumers and uellers of steam ooal. Ths be ginning of the end of the fight became ap parent yesterday afternoon when the Chi cago A Northwestern let out a schedule restoring the old rates on Iowa steaming coal 11.18 a ton .to Lincoln; In the group ing of the various points under tariff rates Omaha is entitled to a It-cent differential rate against Lincoln and this means a re turn to the $1.01 rate by the Northwestern on coal to this city. Both the Burlington and Missouri Pacific are charging $1.30 to Lincoln aril $1.11 to Omaha. They will have to meet the North western rate or lose a large part of their business. The Burlington charges $1 16 to Omaha and $1.30 to Lincoln on the same coal that the Northwestern ia going to bring In for $1.01 and $1.16. The new Northwestern rate sheet which was circulated around town yesterday and which goes Into effect next Monday, quotes the $1.16 rate to Lincoln, carrying with It the understanding of a $1.01 rate to Omaha. Will Force Flnnl Hetnra. "Coal from Kansas and Missouri mines Is considered of a better JVmlity," said one dealer, "than that of the Jowa mines, but I am of the opinion that the competing roads will have to go beck to the old tariff in order to hold trade, as the con sumers will, In my opinion, take the Iowa coal at the cheaper rate In preference to lending their aid to the efforts of these ' roads to Injure our city by discriminations that are unjust and palpably wrong." "Of course," continued the same dealer, this fight Is not won, but it looks very much as If the Northwestem's action was the opening wedge, that would split ths combination and force a return to exist ing rates before August 1. If they had calmly allowed this Imposition they woul1 have had no relief." "The cas was actually - so bad," said another dealer, "that something had to be done. Omaha consumers could not hare stood the unjust handicap of 60 to SO cents a ton on steam coal. It was too much of a good thing for Kansas City, St. Joseph, and even Council Bluffs. The Bee ia fighting for this city also has fought Lin coln's battles. The united fight of sli In terests was a notification to the railroads that relief was expected .and unless it waa forthcoming the parties In Interest . either would Invoke aid from some other ' source or help themselves never calmly submit to unjust discrimination."
