ROOSEVELTJQURNEY THROUGH OMAHA ON HIS WAY TO CHEYENNE. TALKS OF OUR PRIMARY UW Refuses to Make a Speech Because He Will Again Be in Omaha and Talk September 2d. Omaha. Colonel Roosevelt has no use for the kind of primary law that Nebraska has at present. He said so in no uncertain terms Friday, on his special car, while entering Council Bluffs. The colonel had been advised to be careful in the framing of the proposed primary law in New York, "so that you do not get such a law as we have, where the members of one party can go Into the primary of tiie other and nominate its candidates." "My dear sir, I don't favor that kind of a law. I have said I favor the Hughes law, which contemplates that men shall vote only in the primaries of their own party, as indicated by their registration." Then Colonel Roosevelt gave fur ther endorsement by saying: "And then we want a corrupt practices act strong enough to prevent the undue use of money or other influences in jthe nomination and election of candi dates." When told some agitation was al ready on in Nebraska for the adoption of the Oregon corrupt practices act. the colonel uttered a hearty. "Good!" The former president made one of the shortest speeches in his life at the Omaha Uuion depoL He had just stepped out on the rear platform on the Northwestern train, hat in hand and hand in air. when someone shouted, "Say something!" "Oh, no." said the colonel, "I am go ing to speak in Omaha shortly, ami this afternoon I am very glad indeed to see you." With another wave or the hand and a big smile lie turned to go back Into his car. but just as he was about to enter the car he saw two small hoys, with suit cases, stand ing by tho steps. "Hello, there how perfectly bully this seems. Come on aboard, here. Let down that step, someone." Roosevelt gave the smaller one a hug and the larger oae a loving pat. The boys were Archie Roosevelt, his son, and his companion. A reporter boarded the special train at Missouri Valley and was given an ppportunity to meet Colonel Roose velt before the train got to Council Bluffs. The colonel was joviality it self in his greeting and admitted he had enjoyed the trip to date. Mr. Campen mentioned the name of some one Roosevelt knew on the Isthmus. file's the salt of the earth," was the exclamation, "Three thousand of us are going down there for the celebration when they open the canal." said the Omaha engineer, who wears a Roosevelt medal given to certain employes. "So am I. by jove." replied the colonel, "and I can't tell you how glad I am to meet you." am to m When tl lie newspaper man was in- troduced. taking his cue from an in struction given by the manager of the trip, he said, "Colonel Roosevelt. 1 wouldn't take an interview if I could get one." "That's right, that's right." came sharply through the smile. On this trip Colonel Roosevelt has made a rule that he will not give an interview to any Individual newspa per man. but twice a day he meets the two score of newspaper represen tatives in a litle parlor of his car and holds a conference at which ho gives out anything he has to say. Such a conference was held between Council Bluffs and Omaha. Sheep Receipts Heavy. South Omaha. Sheep receipts have Drken all previous records for the South Omaha market so far this week.

Captain Cor.rad is detailed for duty in the quartermaster's depart ment, and Is recognized as an expert Dn horses required for military use. Horses are now being purchased by members of the quartermaster's de partment, who are making their selec tions in various parts of the country. The success attending this effort has been very gratifying to the quar termaster general, who has estab lished an army remount system, with a view to Improving the cavalry mounts and the horses furnished to the field artillery. When a young horse is purchased in any locality to be sent to one of the two army remount de pots at Fort Keogh. Montana, or Fort Reno. Okla. he is marked with a numeral. The mark lasts about four months, when it becomes obliterated, and it is necessary to apply another.

It has been announced at the state de partment that the government will press at once for recognition from these two powers of the railroad con cession recently granted by China to an English-American syndicate. This is the concession which Russia blocked with an emphatic protest last winter. Since then the negotiations have been in the statu quo. Now they are to be resumed at once. The gov ernment is to find out whether or not Russia and Japan Intend to bar the United States as well as other powers out of Manchuria by raising unjusti fiable objections to the admission of other nations to that rich field.

New York Sun. for Army Horses A third marking takes place when the horse is sent from the army remount depot to the troop or battery, and It must be renewed from time to time. It is Captain Conrad's idea that a more enduring designation could be accomplished by applying a mark to the inside of the upper Up of the horse. He has devised an instrument for this purpose, and suggests the use of India ink. w,ith the result that the numeral adopted will be indelible. This will require, of course, a regular system of marking so that there may be no duplicates. By this means a horse accepted for military service will keep its number. It may be nec essary to have legislation to prevent tampering with the designation or ma king use of a similar mark in the case of horses not used in the military service. Captain Conrad's quest is expected to lead to several important acquisi tions during the coming year. By this method the middleman is avoided, and horses are obtained at a much lower price than under the contract system. Besides, there is a better opportunity of selection, and controversies are avoided which so often have prevailed between the government representa tives and the contractors who fail to comply with specifications in the de livery of military animals. When the recent convention be tween Russia and Japan was sprung on the world American diplomats ex pressed little surprise. The govern ment has believed from the first there Is a secret article in this convention which has not been made public. It is felt the unpublished portion is an agreement on the part of the two na tions to support each other in barring other nations from the territory in question. The United States intends to force Russia's hand and determine whether such a secret bargain exists. The concession granted to the English American syndicate was for the con struction of the Chin-Chow-Aigun rail road line. English capitalists were to furnish the funds and the materials were to be built in America. There is one drawback to the situa tion from the standpoint of this gov ernment. England for some unknown reason, is weakening. Her enthusiasm for the joint undertaking cooled per ceptibly after Russia had entered an objection. Diplomats seem to think it quite likely that the United States will have to make the fight single-handed to keep Manchuria open with equal op oprtuuity to all nations. on the Opium Evil j means of international apre.Hici through which opium producing coun tries will protect, by means of gov ernment supervision, ports where the importation of the drug is prohibited. The first realization of the serious ness or the opium traffic so far as the United States is concerned came when the government started to put the Philippines in order. An attempt to regulate the unlimited traffic there called for the appointment of a com mission. The commission in tracing the many Americans engaged In the opium trade found that the United States, with some 200.000 American users of smoking opium, to say noth- ! ing of the Chinese users here, pre sented almost as serious a question as the insular possessions. Since that time the United States has led the light among the powers against the drug. About a year ago a law absolutely prohibiting the importation into this country of opium for any except medi- umui iuiiucj ; .-ij... ...v are now about lf0,000 Americans using the drug, and in spite of the prohibi tory statute about f.8,000 pounds ol smoking opium is smuggled into this country annually. that the believer wore short hair, im possible frocks, a man's hat and other cranky accompaniments of "queer views. Time has changed all that The women who romposo the committees which have appeared to demand tho vote at the laet few sessions of con gress have been modishly gowned, attractive and in most instances so daily prominent. The cause of the ballot for woman has swept the coun try to such an extent that many ol i the senators and representatives ol the present congress are avowed sym pathizers and not a few of them havt put themselves on record as favor Ing suffrage. The "votes for women agitation is now discussed openly and sympathetically at many a Washing ton tea table presided over by a hos tess whose social prominence is undis puted and whose graces and ta'ents are distinctly of the most feminine kind. It is not safe to scoff at woman suf frage anywhere in Washington now, for too many members of the set which Is really influential have de- veloped leanings of that kind Tock Her Nerve.
