'flio republican county central committee'
met nt CrctRhton hall yesterday afternoon
nnd organized for the coming campaign , The
new ofllcers were elected , but It was decided
to leave tlio matter of calling the county
convention for a fnturo meeting.
Chairman Lewis called the committee to
order and announced the election of the now
chairman o the first order of
Charles Unltt of the Nlntn ward , George A.
Day of the Polirth , Charles A. Ooss of the
Ninth. H. M. Waring of the Sixth and O , U.
Williams of Elkhorn precinct wore nomi
nated and the first ballot elected Mr. Will-
lams by the following vote : Williams , 27 ;
l > ay , 17 ; Unltt , 7 ; Ooss , 1 ; Waring , 1.
In taking the chair Chairman William *
expressed his appreciation ot the confidence
that had been reposed In htm by the com
mitted anil nrgi-d the Importance ot n more
thorough organization In order to win a
handsome victory In Douglas county this
IM for the p.irty that had "brought fortune
to the pockets of every farmer and workIngman -
Ingman in the land. " Ho suggested that the
chairman wan but a small purt of the organ
ization and that he should rely on the Active
co-operation nnd advice of every republican ,
Charles F. Tuttle and W. A. Mcsslck were
nominated for secretary. The first ballot
showed that Tuttle had nine-tenths of the
votes and before It was completed he was
declare , ) clcctod by acclamation. 1C. J , Corn
ish was made treasurer In the same manner
and In response to repeated calls he spoke
briefly. He said that the republican party
stood for morality and It must bo distinctly
understood that no money would bo expended
except for the legitimate purposes of the
campaign. It had been heralded abroad by .
the opposition that money was to bo spout
In great quantities In Nebraska this year ,
but ho declared that the victory would be
won without an effort to corrupt any voter.
On motion of Charles Unltt the chatrmin
was authorized to appoint an executive com
mittee of nlno members , and Chairman
Wllllamr , stated that ho would announce the
committee ! at ci futnru meeting.
JEFFERSON PRECINCT PRIMARIES.
Petitions from voters In Jefferson precinct
both for and against the Australian system
In the primaries In that proclnict were re
ferred to the executive committee , as was
also a request from the Central Republican
club of the Third ward asking to bo al
lowed to name half the Judges and clerks
At the primaries.
The only other feature of the meeting was
an effort on the part of Mr. Hcclfleld's deputy ,
Zimmerman , to make a little medicine for
his seceding superior by Introducing a reso
lution which provided that since oni Omaha
publication had repeatedly made charges to
the effect that Frank E. Moores was a de
faulter , the county attorney should be re
quested to at once begin criminal proceed
ings against Mayor Moores.
The animus ot the resolution was at once
appreciated by the other members of the
committee and It was laid on the table after
llcdflold and his olllclouis deputy had re
ceived a red hot scoring at the hands of
halt a dozen speakers.
Charley Unltt was the first man recognized
and he exposed Zimmerman's motives In a
manner that brought out repeated cheers
from tlio committee. He said that this was
the third or fourth time that such a resolu
tion 'had be'en Introduced before republican
commUteca and conventions. It had resolved
llsclf Icito a question whether the committee
should stand by Its nominees or by n man
who would aasasstnato In the dark the man
whom the republican p.irty had elected to
the highest olllco In the city government.
"I cannot claim the honor ot having been
born In America , " continued Unltt , "but I
nm American enough to bollevo that every
mnn should have his day In court and that
ho should not be declared to be guilty until
ho has been convicted by a jury of his peers.
I believe wo should stand by our nominees
ns against the calumnies of his political
opponents. This resolution comes from a
man who , although he Is a member of the
republican county centtal committee , Is en
gaged In organizing clubs In the various
wards of the city for the avowed purpose
ot defeating the republican nominee for
county clerk. If Hedflcld knew that Frank
Moorcs was a defaulter uhy did he not say
so. Instead of waiting until after the repub
lican convention had declared that iMoores
was the man whom It wanted as Its standard
bearer. Hut no , ho wanted to pose as a
martyr and stab the candidate of his party
In the back. And now , 1 want this commit
tee to say to Mr. lledfleld : 'Wo repudiate
your charges. Rr i Independently If you
want to , and we will nominate a man -who
will be elected In splto of your treachery. ' "
SKINNING AN INGRATE.
E. J Cornlrih called attention to the fact
that the matter raised by the resolution was
not nn Issue Ilk this campaign. It had been
fought In tha last campaign and the people
ple had repudiated tint charges and elected
Frank E. Moores. Moreover , the resolution
was practically a criticism ot the county
attorney , nnd what right had this com
mittee to declare that the county attorney
hail neglected his duty upon the evidence
that was before 117
John 0 Kuhn said that certain Individuals
who did not oven vote the tepubllcan ticket
Boomed to bo trying to malto this a post >
mortem campaign with the assistance of the
popocratlc organ. Ho scored Hedflcld and
declared that this grand stand play was
too'npparent to deceive any Intelligent man.
1) , L , Johnson of West Omaha bald that
ho had been a political friend ot Itcdflcld's ,
but when Rcdtleld assumed that he was
greater than the republican party , that ho
vas the only pure mnn In the party and the
only ono who was competent to bo county
clerk , ho could not endorse his position.
Why was this resolution Introduced ? in.CO
was as plain ns the nose on n man's face
that It was purely for the purpose of mak
ing political capital for lledfleld. He thought
It would get Into the newspapers and ndvor- )
tlso his Independent campaign.
Zimmerman obtained IheMlpor to explnn
that the rcBoIuton was not aimed at the
county attorney , and In response to a ques
tion ho admitted that ho did not Intend
to vote for the republican candidate for
cpunty cleik , IIo was freely hlssod by the
lobby , and after Fred limning and several
others had spoken In opposition to the reso
lution , U was laid on the table * by a practi
cally unanimous voto.

The first annual picnic of the Local Pas
senger association ot Omaha and Council
Uluffs was held at Sarpy Mills yesterday ,
and to nay that It was a moat auspicious
occasion for the wleldors of the ticket stamp
nnd the eloquent passenger agents Is to ex
press the truth In a mild manner. It has
already been decided to have a second an
nual picnic. The festivities were attended
by halt a hundred passenger and ticket
agents , a large number of traveling passen
ger agents coming from outnlJo points to bo
present at the Initial picnic of the Omaha
ticket men. The success ot the affair was
duo wholly to the efforts of Messrs. J. S.
McNally of the Rock Island and Court Car
rier of the Milwaukee , who constituted the
committee on arrangements.
All the city ticket offices were closed
promptly at 11 o'clock yesterday morning
and Inquirers were after that directed to the
depots , because "tho passenger men arc to
day having their first picnic In ten years. "
Through the courtesy of the management of
the Ilurllngton railroad , the party was taken
down to the picnic grounds on a special train
which lett the Union depot at 11:15. : The
party Included J. E. Buckingham , Fred
Francis , J , D. Reynolds , Doll Uranchmid _
Ted Llvescy of the U. & M. ; George Abbott ,

SPIRITED BALL. GAME.
The most Important event of the day was
base ball game between nines captained
y Court Carrier of the Milwaukee and J. 1) .
leynolds of the Burlington. For the first
ameii team Carrier was pitcher and Ander-
: on was catcher three-fourths ot the time ,
' 'or the other sldo Reynolds pitched and
George Buckingham acteij as the receiving
3ml of the battery. Reynolds' aide won after
i hot light of sixteen and one-half Innings
by the score oC 25 to 13. Thu winning side
nade fourteen errors nnd twenty-eight base
bits , while the other sldo rolled up thlrty-
dx errors and twelve bnso hits. George
iVest of the Northwestern endeavored to act
n the dual capacity of umpire and peace
maker , and ho had sevor.il various kluds of
rouble on his hands In every Inning but the
ast , during the progress of which ho fled ,
lo fined ono player $1 and two players $8 ;
ho ordered six man out of the game , and all
but live of them obeyed his commands. The
gigantic form of Rutherford was once dis
covered purloining a base , and It looked as
hough the game might bo stopped then and
: hero , but trafllc relations were resumed
after the trouble was drowned at the special
refreshment stand of the umpire.
Three gaily attired negroes , veritable
poclalty artists In their line , had been
gathered hi by the committee and escorted
: o the picnic grounds. AVith their musical
nstruinents and their songs , dances and
recitations they kept the passenger men
amuscj for several hours.
At 5 o'clock a s > ccond section of the party
arrived from Omaha , preceded by the Sev-
nth Ward brass band , George Green leader.
| There was another base ball game and sundry
other games. After lunch had been served
he passenger men gathered on the green
sward and listened to a sacred concert by
the band interspersed by variety acts by the
: iegro artists. A photographer risked IiU
life on the edge of a violent stream and
secured "a counterfeit presentment" of the
jovial group. To escape the ordeal a pair
of the cut rate men fell In the drink , but were
rescued after heroic efforts had been made
to let them drown.
GET HOME ALL RIGHT.
The return to Omaha was made In a spe
cial car attached to the Burlington's express
from Lincoln. On arriving In this city a line
of march was formed and , hwd&l by the
band , the passenger men marched north on
Tenth street and west on Fnrnam street
to The Bco building , where "El Capltan"
and "Directorate" were well rendered. Dur
ing the roaditlon of the selections In front
of The 'Bee ' building the "low joints" and
their friends clcsped hands In a touching
manner and cnclcled the band In an effective
manner and encircled the band In an effective
thing. On the march up 'Farnam ' street tlio
band played almost continually the familiar
ditty "Them Will Bo a Hot Time In the Old
Town Tonight. " All the railroad offices
\\oro cheered and another cheer was given
for the now north and south Mne , tbo Kan
sas City , Plttsburg & Gulf railroad , through
the courtesy of which railroad the passenger
men enjoyed the music of the band.
Harry Druel , the veteran passenger agent
of Omaha , had been selected ns tlio orator
of the day. He was compelled to be In Chicago
cage , however , and the address which ho had
prepared for the occasion was read by Local
Secretary Chambers. The address was a
most Interesting ono to all the passenger
men and was greatly appreciated. Among
other things the patriarch wrote : "It Is
proper to go back to the early da > s of
Omnha , before the whlstlo of thu locomotive
was heard on our hills ami plains , and when
out passenger transportation was confined
to steamboats auil the Western Stage com
pany. In the spring ot 1SCO the Hannibal &
St. Joseph railroad , In conjunction wjth the
Burlington , put on a line of packets ( five la
number ) between St. Joseph and Omaha ,
making nearly a dally line. At least It was
so InUndcd , though the Missouri river was
then , as It Is now , so uncurtain In Its move
ments and stages of water and BO uncertain
In Its snngs and sandbars that regular tlmo
was out of the question , and often days
would Intervene between the arrival of boats.
EARLY COMPETITION ,
"My partner , Judge Porter ( now of Los
Angeles ) , and myself wore appointed n cents
for the packet line , The travel was large ,
thu competition , between the boats and tbo
stage line WHS strong , and I assure you wo
had lively times working for business. Soon
after the establishment of the packet line
thu Hannibal & St , Joseph sent a passenger
agent hero. It was our old friend James
Reed , now with the L hlgh Valley. Some
of our experiences In gutting business were
very rare. For reasons that are plain to
every ticket agent they paid commissions In
those days I was anxious to sell railroad
tickets from St. Joseph. I wrote to the gen
eral passenger agent of tbo Hannibal & St.
Joseph requesting him to send mo a few
forms as an experiment. He did so , sending
mo eight forms to the principal cities of the
country. This was the commencement of
the selling of railroad tickets In the then
territory of Nebraska , and It wan so success
ful that It was but a short time until he i j i
sent me a full line of tickets. I shall always
remember selllni ; the first ticket In the ter
ritory , over which occasion wo had quite an
ovation. It was to New York via the Hanni
bal & St. Joseph , the Burlington and the
Pennsylvania railroads. It was the first
coupon ticket ever sold In Omaha and wo
celebrated It , I think , with lemonade. So
matters went along until the Kansas City &
St. Joseph was completed to Council JIlnfTi ,
when the packet line was discontinued and 1
remained with the K. C. as ticket agent. "
