out to Bcnnineton last Sunday with Uoyd
Little things of this character having suspi
cious outward appearances are what make
the campaign lively Just now. Seeing these
two slate builders together naturally lot
John Drcxcl to conclude that they wuro con
spiring against him.
Mlko Lee nnd his friends arc Indignant bo
causa Mr. J , 13. Plpor , secretary of tin
school board , persists In bomgnmddlcsomo.
They allege that ho Is out elec
tioneering When ho should bo attend-
me strictly to his own business. Co
burn declares , however , If Pinor Is woruint
in his Interest ho knows nothing about it
and has no understanding with him.
Since discovering Unit his bold leap Into
the collcctorship breach failed to close thai
opportune opening as ho expected It would ,
Klclmrd Harltn hat concluded to got back In
the race for register of deeds , and kooi
company with Joe Southard. Whet
Dickey bird learned that Senator Mandcrsor
had sent a letter to Washington nslt-
inc for Alexander's appointment , It made
him very sad and his friends
gave out a report to-day that ho proposed tc
renew his candidacy In the county struggle ,
As a matter of consolation , Kichard holds
thnt his brief run for collector of the porl
{ 'roa.tly assisted Senator Mandersnn to roach
a conclusion.
The district ju < lgcshlp fight has noi
changed materially slnco Tuesday , though
thcro seems to be n prevailing Impression
that tlio contest will bo narrowed down b.y
Saturday , when the bar association meets ,
to three candidates. Clarkson's supporters
claim , of course , that his endorsement if
virtually assured now , "but the fdomic
of li. J. Davis are tuuking n
desperate effort to counteract the
movement In Olarkson's favor. It is
quietly hinted that u concentration of the
various forces , these favorlngEstollo , Urcck-
cnrldgo , Ambrose nnd others , on U.ivis will
give him a majority of the lawyers , and this
is what his friends are trying to bring about.
Thcro Is another candmato for thu juilijo
ship in the Held. A. C. Troup has yielded U
the solicitation of friends and entered the
ruco In earnest. The friends of Mr. Ulurkson
claim to hava the signatures of 150 mcmbcrt
of the association to a petition asking Gov
ernor Tliuyer to appoint him to the position.
Tito supporters of candidates Estolla and
Davis deny that any such strength lias gone
to Mr. Clarkson , and each faction feels con
fident thnt its favorilo will bo endorsed by
the association at the meeting on Saturday
night.
Adam Snyder has finally coma out and is
among the democratic entries In the race foi
county treasurer. Previous to last night he
had treated the matter indifferently but his
friends urged him to KO in and nmko a bold
light tor the nomination. Jerry Mulvihill.
the grocQryman on St. Mary's uvenue , and
Konrcscntativo Gardner Imvo also made
known thu fact that they are in the Held.
Judging from the mitiinor in which demo
cratic aspirants are bobbing up almost ever >
day the ambitious element in that party has
t-'roat assurance of success at. the election ,
Polor O'Malloy ia on the war path , and
wants the nomination for county clerk.
Pat Ilcnfoy , the Fourteenth street under
taker , is very anxious to try his hand as
coroner , nnd will nsk the democratic conven
tion to put him in nomination.
If you want to strike the hot-bod of smal
politics go Into the lower strata of county
politics and hear what the army ot candi
dates for Justice of the peace Imvo to say.
Since the city has been divided into three
districts , nllowinirtwa Justices to each dis
trict , it is thought the oQlco will bo worth
something , consequently , ovcry ward ha ;
from six to a dozen candidates , and they arc
making things very lively. Gustavo Andor
aon and John Morns , of the Second district ,
are anxious to hold on nnd reap some of the
benefits in sight. George M. O'Urior
says ho helped to frame the
now law , nnd therefore thinks ho i ;
.entitled to ono term , at least , and has an
nounced himself.

The nttornnys for the Omaha Gas Manu
facturing company filed .n petition in Judge
Wakoloy's court yesterday , nsklng for i
chnngo of vcnuo In the case of the Gas com
pany cult against the city of Omaha. The
motion tva-i supported by a number of nfil
davits of citizens , alleging that in thcii
ballot a fair trial of the coso can not bo haeJ
In Douglas county on account of the oxlRtlnf
local prejudice against tbo gai company. The
aftnnts are James Woodman , Gcorgo E
Unrkor , J. I * . Lovctt , O.V Ambrose ant
County CommUsloncr W. J. Mount. AccordIng -
Ing to the nflldnvlts these centlomon are well
acquainted with the public sentiment ir
Omaha nnd Douglas county , and buvo nil
hoard expressions against the gas company ,
They hava heard many a time and oft thai
"Tho company wai a fraud , " "Thoy art
swindlers , " and each of the gentlemen mak
ing hftldnvlt confesses to having hoard i > eo
pie say "Damn the pas company. "
Air. Woodman claimed that his business tia
Insurance ngent had been damaged because
ho nt ono time had an olllco In the same room
with the gas company. To this fact , also , he
attributed his defeat for councilman on the
democratic ticket , In the Fourth ward , three
years ago.
The motion for a chnngo of venue was op
posed by City Attorney Webster. Ho said
It wan uniusinir to tlml Mr. Woodman com
plaining that his defeat for democratic coun
cilman in the republican Fourth ward was
duo to the fact that ho had In any manner
been connected with the gas company. The
other parties making nftldavita wore
especially interested in the gas company ,
and nt least two of them had stock in the
corporation. Mr. Webster also had some
allldnvils , ton of them signed by reputable
citizens , to the effect that , In their opinion , n
fair trial of the cause could bo had in Doug
las county.
Judge Wnkolcy asked If Mr. Webster
would ngreo to n special venire for Jurymen
outside the city limits. The city attorney
replied that If thcro was nn.v cause shown
why such action should bo taken ho would
agree to it.
Judge Wakelcy tooic the affidavits nnd

for a change of venue on Saturday.

Another elcotno motor line will bo In op
eration between Omaha nnd Council BlufTs
In the near future , unless something entirely
unexpected turns up. SovoraV eastern cap
italists are connected with the project , but
the bulk of the financial backing will come
from Omaha. The projectors are Hon. John
A. McShano , Hon , W. A. 1'nxton , the consol
idated company ot this city , and Judge
James , a well-known capitalist of Council
Uluffs , The plan Is to procure n right-of-
way iitross the Union Pacific bridga , using
that part for n roadway now used far vehicle
Irani c. . After leaving the bridge the line
Will bo constructed on the grade of the
present roadway loading from the brldco tc
Council BluiTs. In Omaha It will connect
with the horse car line , adjacent
to the Union Pacific tracks , nnd will
bo a portion of the electrical system
to bo operated by the consolidated company.
Judge James , on behalf of the projectors ,
held a long conforcnco with Vice President
Holcomb , of the Union PncilleJJTucsday
afternoon. When asked concerning the na
ture of the conforcnco , Mr. flolcomb said :
"Judgo Janice desired to know If tha Union
Pnclllo would grunt a motor company the
franchise of its brldro to bo used in crossing
the river with un electrical system to bo ope
rated between Council DlulTs and Omaha.
Wo talked the matter over and I Informed
him that I had no objections , provided a fair
rental was paid for the use of the bridge. I
did not give him nny definite answer , but re
quested Mmt the matter bo taken up again
upon the arrival of General Dodge. If the
motor projectors nro sincere , I can see no ob
jection in their way , ns far as crossing the
bridge Is concerned. "
It was also learned thnt , providing n crossIng -
Ing cannot bo obtained , over the Union
Pucillo bridge , Mr. MeSbnno , who holds a
franchise for a bridge over the river nt this
point , will put it in use , and both cities will
bo asked to vote bonds for the construction
of a bridge at this point.
DODGE AND DlhLO.V COMING.
Further Proof or a Port Worth-Union
; Pnclllo Donl.
Hon. Sidney Dillon , a heavy owner of
Union Pacific stock , and a director of the
company , will arrive from the west this
afternoon , and will remain la Omaha
several days , Ho will bo joined bore by
General G. M. Dodge , president of the Den
ver , Texas & Fort Worth , nnd who is also
n director and heavy stockholder in the
Union Pacific. Now comes the report , and
from a reliable source , that matters nro
gradually shaping themselves which means
nothing else than the purchase ,
outright , of the Denver , Texas
& Fort Worth road by the
Union Pacific. Tlio Fort Worth
rend Is 800 miles long , nnd with the excep
tion of n small scr.tipn of road leading out
from Trinidad owned b.v the Denver & Uio
Grande over which tno Fort Worth rend has
a trackage right , it forms a direct outlet
from Denver to tidewater points.
Vice President Holcomb when questioned"
about the Fort Worth deal said : "Nothing
definite has ns yet been arranged. It is true
that n trip was madeovcr , the road in view
of ascertaining just what the lay of the land
was. President Adams is favorable toward
the Fort Worth problem , but nothing point -
ing to its absorption has as yet been consum
mated. "
"Hut wilt not this matter come up before
the directors of the Union Pacific attlieir
October mooting ) "
"I cannot say an to that. General Dodge ,
as I nnderstanel it , is to be present at the
