YEISER DEFENDS ALDRICH
Writei to World-Herald Concerning
Governor', Mesajre.
SAYS RUMORS SUPPORT" CHARGES
Insists tkat Rieeatlre l JaeHfled la
Ilia Position and Demaada m
Cleaalnsr Is t the
Third TIlH.
Taking the riidgela tip In support of the
position of Governor Aldrlch In connection
with election conditions In Omaha. John
O. Teiaer has addressed some vigorous lan
guage to the World-Herald In a communi
cation to It, as follows:
"Will you kindly allow space for a friend
of yours. In spite of your course, as well
as a friend of the govemor'a. to criticise
your meihod of dealing wtth hla message
and at the same time praise the course of
the governor?
"My criticism of your method la In Ignor
ing the real point of the message, which
should and doea Include a challenge of
fraudulent registration In auch numbers as
defeated Phallenberger's nomination for
Dahlman, and In bringing out and em
phasizing Important details to cover and
befog the Teal Issue, namely a purification
of electJona of the future.
"To give you a sample of occaalonal
newspaper Juggling with facta to sidetrack
an Issue and requiring explanations. I
mention the following facta about warda:
"Aa to census reports, you know very
well that ten years ago ward lines were
very different from now. We had nine
warda then, but five years ago there were
rhangea, ao that we now have twelve
warda. The Third ward five yeara ago
had ten voting precincts, but now the
Third has only five. This statement Is
correct, but will draw an explanation from
you.
"Everybody knows that there are only
about three doxen resident male free
holders In the Third ward, or not over
seven or eight more than the law requires
for a saloon petition, and that saloons are
required to pay thla landed gentry to ob
tain signatures.
"The majority of the realdents of this
Ward la the notorloua nonvoting class and
their consorts. Voters are registered from
Junk yards, the police station, eighteen or
twenty In a body from pool halls, from
vacant lots and restaurants. They em
brace men In the penitentiary of other
ststes and from grave yards.
Troof of the Fraud.
"Where offenses' are charged In a gen
eral way, the guilty are usually the first
to yell "prove It.' Some things are so
notoriously corrupt that you don't need
proof. Any one can scout around the bor
ders of ths Third ward and look over with
a field glass and know that there are not
600 males over 21 years of age residing In
the Third ward. But the proof of election
frauds will be forthcoming unnecessary
and unwelcome as It may be. Even at
the last city election there were only about
1.200 votes in the Third ward and every
one knows they run In a big bunch against
Breen.
"As to this census report nearly every
body In Omaha has heard the rumor that
there were only 835 male residents In the
Third ward, where Dahlman received a
majority of over 1,700. One of the fire and
police commissioners told me he had writ
ten or told the governor of this among
other things. Besides nearly any man who
stopped an hour or two In Omaha has
heard It. These conditions certainly Justify
the governor In requesting legislative
action.
"Now, the governor Is not a police court
prosecutor to spend Ills time prosecuting
petty -offenses, nor does he belong to, the
judiciary branch, where he hears casea
under the tedloua and technical rulea of
law necessary where a man's liberty or
property Is at stake. He Is the chief of the
executive branch. It Is his duty to do ths
big things. Where rumor Is prevalent, the
people report to the governor and he as
signs fjie investigation to other bodies.
Even the Judges act upon rumor to call
grand juries. But the trial Is on tacts. In
harmony with this practice the governor
did right In referring these rumors of rot
tenness In Omaha to the legislature. He
did right when he aald If our city cannot
put men In such a ward to give honest
election It becomes the duty of the gov
ernor to aeslst In naming a commission.
Position of World-Herald.
"The World-Herald ahows a keener scent
to pursue Governor Aldrlch as if he were
a pest than It does to drive out the Iniqui
ties of elections. H overlooks the main
feature of the governor's message, which Is
to prevent election frauds and magnifies
detail.
"The World-Herald knows the governor's
message In the main is true. It -must
acknowledge it privately in the editorial
room the people acknowledge It over the
city and realise the better element would
control under fair elections.
"I admire the course of the governor In
not attempting to disgrace a county, like
Adams county, Ohio, has been disgraced
by putting a curse of conviction on one
third of Its population. Governor Aldrlch
says this practice, winked at tn the past
in such a way as not to regard perpetrat
ors of such frauds as criminals, must be
stopped the public must realise these
things sre penitentiary offenses and future
elections become purified,.
"Will you not Join the governor In this
work? We cannot expect good office and
good administrations without clean elec
tions. Decent people are In the majority
here. If the two or three thousand stolen
votes are eliminated In the future.
JNO. O. YEISER."

Undeserving Poor
Not to Get Supplies
County Board and Associated Chari
ties to Work in Harmony
in the Future,
i
tn the future the undeserving poor who
have been refused aid by the county com
missioners will not be sble to go before
the Associated Chsrltles and get help, for
by a resolution adopted by the commis
sioners Tuesday, the two will work hand
In hand. The resolution was Introduced
by O. J. Plckard and was Inspired by a
communication received Tuesday from
George Anthea, county auditor, which told
a story of Irregularities and Impositions
upon the county store at Bouth Omaha.
Miss Ida V. Jonts. secretary of the As
sociated Charities, was preeent when the
resolution was Introduced and talked
strongly for It. Bhe said she was sure the
executive committee would allow for the
extra worker which the move will make
necessary. The resolution tells of orders
made almost Indiscriminately upon the
county by those not In authority. In the
future orders for relief may be Issued only
by some member of the county commis
sion or by the secretary of the Associated
Charities. Only temporary help will be
riven until the Associated Charities may
thoroughly Investigate the case. Pass
cards for relief, hitherto In use unsigned
by anyone, in the future will be good only
when signed by Miss Jonts of the Associ
ated Charities.
After Introducing the resolution Mr.
Plckard placed the letter from Anthet. In
the hands of the clerk and had It read.
It Is said that the manner of conducting
business at the county store Is primitive
and that It should be placed upon a busi
ness basis so that the county might know
that nothing goes out except to the needy.
"Since December 5, lniO," It continues, "there
have been Issued 202 coal orders and 229
grocery orders, making a total of 431. Sev
enteen of these orders were Issued by the
county commissioners, one by Miss Jonts,
forty by Miss McCloud, an assistant In the
Associated Charities office, several by
others with no authority whatever, while
StiS showed no orders from anyone.
'Custodian Mr. Rupp has been In the
habit of giving supplies Indiscriminately
under the impression that waa the thing
to do. I corrected him, telling him no
supplies should be lven out except on
orders from the county commissi. ers or
their duly authorised agent, such as the
Associated Charities."
Boy Bandits Held
to District Court
Preliminary Hearing in Police Court,
with Part of Evidence Intro
z duced Against Them.
The three boy bandits Joseph Trimble.
George Nagle and Russell Hermann, were
arraigned in police court Tuesday morning
for the preliminary hearing In the F.lton
holdup case, and bound over to the district
court on bonds of 1,000 each. They are
charged with assault with Intent to rob.
The long chain of evidence which the po
lice have been forging was barely touched
upon. Detectives McDonald testified that
Trimble had told Captain Ravage and him
self upon cross-examination the day of his
arrest that, "he had been out there, but
had not done the shooting."
Elton identified Trimble as the man who
shot him, Hermann as the man who stood
In the door, and Nagle as the iman outside,
being ible to see him on account of the are
light in front.
The revolver and empty shells found In
Trimble's - possession wben arrested were
brought In for evidence. The bullet found
6n the floor of the drug store after the
shooting was found to correspond In else
with the caliber of the revolver.
Nagle has right along maintained that he
was not In the affair and that he had a
date with a girl that night, although he haa
been unable to remember who the girl was.

Considered Remarkable
Howie Goes to F.lgln.
Wholesale milk dealers will have to et
their dairies In condition where they will
compare favorably with the dairies of retail
men within twenty days or cease selling
milk.
That Is the recommendation that Claude
Bossle, dairy Inspector, will make In his
report to the city council after an Inspec
tion., which Included scoring of all the
dairies that do business In Omaha.
Bossle completed hla scoring Tuesday,
morning. His report will show that the
wholesale dairies do not compare favorably
with iho dairies of the retail dealers.
Of the retail dealers the lowest, scored
on general appointment of the dairies,
shows 61.8 points, while the highest, exclud
ing the certified dairies, scores 74.S.
But among the wholesalers the highest
scored was 60 7, a slight advantage over
the lowest of the retailers. The wholesal
ers vary In scoring from 60.7 to as low as
29.1.
Both the wholesalers and retailers were
scored under the same conditions, according
to Bossle.
Two certified dairies head the list, both
scoring more than 1 points, a remarkable
showing, considering the rigid conditions
under which the scoring wss done.
During the month Bossle scored eighty
four dairies which sell milk either at
wholesale or retail In Omaha.
Inspector Bossle will leave on a trip of
Inspection of the Elgin, 111., dairies Wednes
day night. An appropriation amounting to
$00 was voted for the trip by the committee
of the whole of Hhe city council Monday
afternoon, provided that the health com
missioner would agree that the money
should come out' of health department
funds. " "- !
Health Commissioner Connell stated Tues
day morning that he did not care where
the money came from If the appropriation
was authorised. So Bossle will get the trip.
Auto Owners Must
Take' Out Licenses!
When Used as Public Conveyances
licenses Are Required and
Must Be Paid.
Owners and drivers of automobiles used as
public conveyances must pay the annual
license fee or go to Court. That was the
edict sent forth by License Inspector Rich
ard Schneider Tuesday morning.
Vndnr the ordinances of the city an an
nual license fee of .$15 and a bond of $500
Is exacted. But so far only about ten have
compiled with the ordinances. The others
have let such a mere detail as licenses
Slip. . . ii
Hut Schneider is going to round them
up. "Last year xorty-seven toon oui
licenses, but not until we had warned them
time and again," aald he. This year about
thirty-seven have failed. Instead or warn
in them and running after them aa I did
last year, I am going to file complaints
and let the drivers, explain to tne court
why they overlooked their licenses.'
