Several now horses were on the track , bed the test of their speed was an Interest ing feature. The bolting was lively during the afternoon , which added a zest to the nport , and with the spirited music furnished by the band as a sort of an Invlgoratlnn , the program was thoroughly enjoyable dllko to novices and to the sports , who had their money up , and won and lost heavily , The first race was for R distance of five- eighths of a tnllo for a purse of $75. There Troro five starters , and they got away In pretty good shapo. Hoyat Lancer won first money , Spoluka second and Sir Walter third. Time : 1:04 % . Hamming Bird was the favorite In the eccond race , but she was left at the post. Cap Hardy made the l > rat time , and came under the wire In' the' load , with' Now Moon at his heols. Al Stokes was third. Distance tfour and one-halt furlongs. Tlmo : 0:68. : Purse , | 7C. There was considerable jockeying at the post In the third race , but they finally made n pretty good get-away. Two now horses r made the start In a field ot five. Dad's Daughter won the larger part ot the i > ursp , when nearly everyone looked for Tidal Wave to , got it. Forget-Mo-Not was second nnd Tidal Wave came In third. May-I-Qo and Elsto Zone , the now horses , came In fourth and fifth. Distance , nlno-slxleenths of a ratio. Tlmo : 0:53. : Purse , $75. The loot race was the one In which most Interest was centered , owing to the fact that Robinson , a growing favorite , was a starter. The betting on this race was all In favor of Robinson , but ho was a disappointment. Ho not only got away from the post last , but was hampered by too much weight , which wore him out before ho reached the Tvlro. Tarranetto won the heat , with Miss Chambers but a neck back ot her , and Rob inson cacao third. Distance , soven-elghtho of a mllo. Tlmo : 1:27. : Purse , $75. The Indian races were comical. The ponloa got off In splendid style , breaking like ono horse from the post. As soon as they started the riders began to whip and kept it up until their steeds came under the wire. Both races were once around the track. In the first boat James Rod Cloud came out In the load , Black Bear was next best and Battle came In last. In the second raoo Lone Bear won out , Hawk was second fcnd Ground Spider third. Mr. Russell announced that new horses mould bo In for the Saturday races and a harness race may bo put on the card.

PREPARATIONS FOR PARADE l nn l lnuor I'romUc n Dljf Dcmonntrntlon lor Ak-Sar-Deu WeeU. Representatives of the fraternal and labor organizations of tiho city -mot Thursday evenIng - Ing In the rooms of the Commercial club for the second tlmo in the intcresls of the fra ternal parade of Ak-Sar-Ben week. AVhllo not more than ten or twelve different bodies were represented , the meeting was a very en couraging one , from the fact that the dele- gateo were able to report a widespread inter est in the par-ado and a general disposition to take an active part. H. O. Bailey , who was selected aa chairman at the last meeting , presided. F. F. Reese , at whoso suggestion the Idea was taken up , reported on the work ho had done In circu lating it among t > ho organizations of the city whose participation was desired. He stated that ho hod mailed notices to 300 lodges and unions and had not Intended to omit any , although it was probable that through over sight he had done BO. But , regardless of notices , ho wished to urge every fraternal and labor organization , , marching or riding club and every dther body which could turn out and 'mnUe a showing to prepare at once to do so. Ho enumerated the advantages which would bo derived from such action and expressed the opinion that the labor or ganizations especially should embrace this opportunity to impress upon the public the strength of their ranks and their close or ganization. In no other way , he believed , could the different organizations be placed before the people eo squarely and so favor ably as by taking a prominent part in thcso parados. The parade committee of the board of gov ernors of Ak-Sar-Ben- present and t > ho members of It offered the lodges any as sistance which it was within their power to render. They urged that action bo taken as quickly aa possible and predicted that if this wore done the two weeks remaining would bo ample tlmo In which to prepare. Delegates from the Clgarmakors' union , the AVoodmcn of the AVorld , the Mod ern Woodmen , the Ancient Order United AVorkmen , the Switchmen's union and the Fraternal Union of America agreed to communicate with lodges of their orders In the surrounding tonns and get them to participate. It was reported that many of the lodges were considering the matter at meetings then in session nnd would appoint committees empowered to net without further delay. Mr. Reese was appointed to present the matter to the Cen tral Labor union at Friday evening's meet ing and endeavor to eecuro its co-opera tion. The delegalca will meet again Tuesday night. OVERRULES TAX PROTESTS Clir Council FlnlNlicn It * I.nl > om IIH n Hoard of n < ituillr.nlou Does JVot ninturb AnnCHiiuciiU. The clly council concluded its silling as a Board of Equalization Thursday afternoon , nfter pnEsIng upon end overruling all but ono protest. The protest allowed was not really an objection , but was elcnply the re quest of S. R. Davis to bo allowed to pay the oontraclor directly for a permanent sidewalk , In Mead of having u special tax recorded against Ihe properly. The pro- testa not allowed were Iho following : Ono from John 1C. Hazard , objecting to being taxed for the building of a sewer en n street which he alleges Is not open to publlo travel. Ho says , also , that the property - orty pant which the sewer runs Is unim proved and that the sewer was not a public necessity. One from Oeorgo A. Hoagland end Charles Oruenlg , who protest against the afsesa- ment of moro than half of the coU of con structing n sewer against the property on nno sldo uf Ames avenue , from Twenty- fourth to Twentyseventh'street. . Three street * are Included In their sldo of the nyenuu which are not open , and which the city will have to buy If they nro over opened , The protestants , through tholr at- torr.ey , Warren Swltzler , allege that the city should pay for the expense of con structing the sewer across the Intersections. Thn board overruled tbo objection on the ground that al ! the property owned by the protrstants was benefited. Ono from a largo number of properly owners on California street against a sewer assessment , protestants claiming that they had previously furnished Ihelr property with A sewer and that they were therefore not benefited. rillllunlt 1'oint In I.uvr.

The second action was based on the failure to pay a different month's rent than that pn which the tlrst one was based , but as the month sued on In the second case came after the bond had been given tha court held that It wag securtd by the bond and therefore could not be made tha subject of an action. ' First Ward Oandldxta Wins an Easj Victory in the Democratic Primaries. LIKELY TO CARRY BROADWELL WITH HIM 1'ower'n rrlcmlfi Clnlni the \uniliin- tlon on Ilic 1'lrnl Itnllnt nnd Other Can ill till ten I'rnctlciillGle V tlic The result of the democratic primaries Thursday was a sweeping victory for John Power , the First ward candidate for sheriff , nntl his frlentla arc confident that ho will bean an easy winner on the first ballot. The other candidates tvro generally disposed to consider themselves out of the race and It sccma cer tain that Tower Is the man that the re publican candidate will have to beat. Frank Droadwell , the South Omaba candidate for clerk of the district court , was tied up with Power and It Is regarded as probable that 1'ower's victory will carry the South Offlahn man through. This leaves the situation de cidedly Ices complicated than It would have been If Power had been defeated and a lot of personal ambitions were duly Interred when the returns were received last night. For the most part the primaries were de void of feature. The lack of Interest was something remarkable In view of the stub born controls that were scheduled In every ward , and apparently the rank and fllo of the party took little Interest In the re sult. The only really lively fight was In the Fourth ward , where 31G votes were cast and Mlllor was defeated by about 85 major ity. The only word that Power lest was the Sixth , M-horo Pat Mostyn's neighbors pulled hls'delcgatlon through by a small majority. As Power's backers practically conceded this ward to Montyu before the poles opened the Power victory was practically complete. Content in the Seventh Ward. In the Seventh ward James Schnelderwlnd and some of his friends created a diversion by an organized and successful effort to de feat the compromise delegation that had boon agreed on by J. J. O'Connor and Charley Fanning. After 3 o'clock they began to throw In their votes by printing the names of their candidates with a rubber stamp , and they eloctsd tholr men by from 10 to 40 ma jority out of 85 votes cost. The defeated delegates assort that thcro was only one del egation legally filed with the secretary of the county central committee and-they will probably make a contest In the convention. On the face ot the returns Power claims ever 100 votes on the first ballot. It only re quires 91 to elect. Ho claims the First , Second , Fourth , Seventh , Eighth and Ninth ward delegations entire , 7 votes In the Third , 5 In the Fifth and the solid vote ot South Omaha. It Is thought that this estimate may bo exaggerated In ono or two cases , but that this will bo offset by the votes ho will get In the country precincts. Miller has the majority of the country precincts , half'of the Fifth ward and port of the Third , and Mcs- tyn has the Sixth. Their combined strength Is Inadequate to head Power oft unless they can break into his lines before the conven tion meets. I.l t of DcleirntcB.

A * * A < > & 4 > ft ft- * Yesterday's democratic primaries were fully aa lively , if not more so , than the pri maries about which there was so much talk a few weeks ago. It was the same old fight between the Ensor faction and the Johnston faction and Ensor won hands down , carrying every ward In the city. Just as the primaries were opening at noon Deputy Sheriffs Stryker and Lewis appeared with an order from Judge Dickinson of the district court restraining Mayor Knsor , Chief Carroll and the entire police force from Interfering In any manner with the casting of ballots in the First and Fourth wards. This restraining order \v s Issued under the application of.Ed Johnston and was served by the deputies on all of the parties concerned before 1 o'clock. When It became noised about that John ston had secured a restraining order for the purpose of bolstering up bis chances the tldo In his favor began to turn toward the op position and the Johnston faction was com pletely ( mowed under. There was a lively contest In the First ward , but the Ensor ticket won out with out any trouble. From the etart the voting was brisk , both sides working hard. Mem bers of the Ensor faction , however , ap peared so confident along toward the mld- rle of the afternoon that efforts were slacked up a bit. Not co"tvlth the opposi tion. Some of the antl-Ensorltes in this ward sulked in their tents and refused to eomo out to vote , but the number was small as compared with the total number of votes cast. Hhodio Redmond manipulated things In the Second w > ird to his own liking and there was no contest. The voting place was located at Thirteenth and Monroe streets , two blocks i.orth of the county line , and on this account only thirty-one patriots considered It worth tholr while to charter a conveyance and ride two miles for the fun of voting , Things Hero quite interesting In the Third ward and one or two small disturb ances resulted from altercations between friends of candidates , The result was en tirely favorable to the Enaor faction. The real battle ground was In the Fourth ward , which is Johnston's home ward and ho along with some ot his followers made tbo fight uf bU life. Backed by bis re straining order Johnston thought ho bad things coming his way , but the total of the count showed that Ensor's high man re ceived 117 votes to Johnston's SO. At none of the precincts were Cnuor challengers noticeable. The opposition , however , were out in force in this respect and challenged quite a number of votos. P. C , Caldwell and Jacob Lory were se lected aa candidates for Justices of the peace. The delegates arc : First Ward J. S. Walters , Henry Owl , Charles E. Scarr , J. C. Collins. Second Ward Uhodle nedmond , Ed Con- ley , Joe Fcrdy , Andy Mcdutrc. Third Ward J. J. Jackman , John Fallen , J. J. Ryan , Tim Maloncy. Fourth Ward J. E. O'Hern , Tom allies- pie , SAm Mart , Patrick Hannlgan. The name of Henry Oest appeared on the opposition ticket In the First ward and Oost received more votes than any of the other delegates. The placing of Cost's name on the opposition ticket was done because James Pollard , ono of the original Ensor delegates , withdrew from the race the clay before the primaries. The delegation Is solid for Broadwcll for clerk of the district court , but la somewhat divided , on a choice for sheriff. Iltmlticn * Itrlftk nt .Stock Ynriln. Wednesday was a ban nor day In llvo stock receipts at the yards , 455 cars being received , Up to the present tlmo this run Is the largest In a number of years , In fact It IB ono of the throe big runs In the history or the yards. On July 10 , 1891 , 490 cars wore received , whtlo on October 5 , 1893 , 464 oars wore unloaded at the yards. The re < wlpta of cattle Wednesday , 8,437 hend , wwo the largest BO far this year. From this tlmo on It Is expected that the cattlfi rutm will Increase , as much aa the range stuff tees bo n held back In order to allow the stock to har < Jen on the rnngo grass , which Is un usually fine. As the opening of the rungo season was backward It has been cxpooteo all along that the bulk of the shipments from the north and west would be held back at least a month , and this Is the case at the prownt time. It Is confidently predicted that tbo annual report of the Stock Yards company , which will bo Issued on January 1 , will show fin Increase In the receipts of cattle as com pared with 1S98. At the precsent time the comparative receipts show a decrease of about 11,000 head , but this will more than bo made up by the range stock which is coming to this market but la being held back on account of thu continued flne condi tion of the grass. Taking everything Into consideration , the demand for feeders continues good. Wed nesday 126 cars went out to the country from this market and all this stuff will como back to this market within ninety days. In connection with the handling of feeders ono of the representatives of a cattle loan com pany said yesterday that Nebraska farmers were not applying for loans this year as much as they did ono and two years ago. The reason for thlo is that money Is moro plenty , that there Is general prosperity In the farming communities all over the stnto and that nearly all farmers have money on hand with which to nmko purchases. As a general thing now .when a Nebraska farmer visits the stock yards for the purpose of buying cattle ho brings the money along with him dnatead of having to make arrange ments nt ono of the bonks for a short-Umo can. Whllo thJs method of procedure is a Httlo hard on the cattle loan companies it shows a healthy condition of affaire in the country. Very few Nebraska or western Iowa farmers are now making loons on their feeder etock. This fact In connection with the Immense corn crop augurs well for this community , as it shows that the farmers and stockmen are all in a prosperous condition. Improvement , , on Went 1. Street A contract has ' Just been let by the county commissioners' for the grading of L street from the city limits on the west to the Paplllon. The Bleep hills on this road are to bo cut down so that there will bo no more than a 5 per cent grade on any portion of the road. This -work contemplate * the removal of 25.000 cublo yards of dirt. Work is to be. commenced nt once and hurried to completion in order that a first-class road may bo established before winter seta in. > i The Improvement of ? this road will bo greatly appreciated by thoeo having oc casion to use It and It will bo next in order for the city to do a Mttle grading on L street beyond the Burlington tracks in order that the entire road may not contain moro than a 5 per cent grade. Dcllnciicnt Tnx Lint. The delinquent tax list Is due nt the county treasurer's office today and It Is ex pected that the force of 'clerks In the city treasurer's office will complete the com piling of this report today or tomorrow. Whllo the totals are Incomplete , enough is known to ehow that the delinquent list this year will not be aa long as it was a year ago. For the past few months prop erty owners have been paying up back taxes much moro rapidly than usual. This ap plies also to special taxes. Moro money on back taxes has been paid Into the city treas urer's office this year than for a number of years past. The reason is that property owners are gelling big rents and with money easier than formerly they can better af ford to pay the taxes than to allow the In terest to accumulate. Mnorlc Cltr GoK.ilp.

BRINGS MATTER TO A FOCUS Building Trades' Oonnoil Takes a Hand in Existing Labor Troubles. ENDORSES ACTION OF THE CARPENTERS Union Workmen in He Cnllcd Oft ot John Where Contrnctorn Would Work Them vrltli Nnn- Uiilon Men , At the meeting of the Building Trades' council Thursday night the actions of the carpenters in demanding 35. cents per hour of the contractors were ondonrad by the unanimous adoption of a reso lution which recognizes 35 cents na the union ecalo of wages In Omaha. By the resolution the council expresses its deter mination to stand by the carpenters in their fight for the Increase and preventing the contractors from employing nonunion men and working them with union men , by or- dorlng off Ml union men from jobs on which the contractors may seek to work them. The resolution , which resolves the con troversy down to a fight between the con tractors and alt the building trades unions In the city , roods as follows : Whereas , The union scale of wages for carpenters In Omaha is 35 cents per hour , therefore be it Resolved , That any contractor paying letu than the above said ecnla be declared unfair nnd treated accordingly and that in the case of any member of any union working over any work done by nonunion carpenters this union bo notified of the fact and in case of their refusing to call said members oft that the union be ejected from this council. During the mooting Thursday evening It was announced that several of the contract ors are employing nonunion men. As the Information was not official , coming only from individual members , the council could take no notion upon the matter , but word will bo sent to all union men today not to work upon jobs upon which nonunion men are employed. It Is the Intention ot the council to stand back of the carpenters and force the contractors to rccognlzo the new scale of wages and pay It before It will allow any union men to work upon any jobs In the city. By this action the council hopes to bring the controversy to a speedy termination , the claim being made that the contractors will be forced to pay the scale demanded to get sufficient men to complete their jobs , as men ot all kliyls are scarce. The advisory committee asked to bo dis charged and the request was granted. Here after if the contractors have any communi cations to send to that body they will have to be submitted to the executive council. A number of union men were called off of jobs in the city Thursday , and not a union man Is expected to work today or un til the controversy Is settled excepting upon jobs where the union ecalo of wages la paid to all hands and where no nonunion men are employed. The contractors -will hold a special meetIng - Ing this evening for the purpose of taking some action upon the resolution passed by the Building Trades' council. The council abolished the separate office of treasurer and combined It with the du ties of the secretary , electing former Secre tary 0. P. Shrum to the new position. The consolidation was to facilitate matters , the secretary heretofore collecting all moneys and turning them over to the treasurer.
