GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS Bepubllcin County Committee Will Soon y Open Its Headquarters. WILL WAGE AN AGGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN VVIIh n MtrntiK Ticket niul UnltPil HfTort It Kxpect * to SITCOII the County Ity nn Ovrrvrltelm- Inic 31njorlti Within the next day or two Chairman Collins of the republican county central committee will nppolnt the executive com- tnlttoe , headquarters will bo opened and a systematic nml vigorous campaign will be Inaugurated to elect the republican ticket. Having bcftii out of town until last Satur day Mr. Collins has been unable to arrange all the preliminary details , but bo says that those will bo attended to at once and the executive committee announced. The location of the headquarters will then bo selected , and the light vigorously pushed until election day. The eentlnicnt among republican work- on * Is that the party was novcr better quipped for an aggressive campaign than It Is this fall. The personality of Us can didates Is not open to attack and it has the advantage of having a committee thor oughly harmonious and composed of men who can bo depended on to secure the best results In the wards and precincts that they ropresent. The make-up of the popocratlo ticket Is regarded aa another element In favor of republican success , aa In several cases the superior ability of the republican candidates Is too apparent to admit of con tradiction. Chairman Collins announces his Intention to select an executive com mittee composed exclusively of live men , who will assist him In keeping the enemy on the Jump. Plans for meetings and other Incidental features of the contest will be submitted to the now executive commlttcp and It Is expected the cotlro organization will bo In working order before the end of the week. Durlns the last day or two talk of a Douglas county candidate for the supreme bench has been revived and some of the Omaha republicans' suggesting Hon. Lo renzo Crounee for the > nomination. Judge Crounsowas appointed associate Justice of the Nebraska oupremo court In February , 1867 , and ho served -with George B. Lake of this city as til * associate. In 1873 ho was the official supreme court reporter. Talk of Judge Crounso's candidacy sug gests a significant comparison between his position as governor on the house rent Y question and that of Governor Holcomb. During the t rm of Governor Crounse the legislature passed an appropriation to pay his house roat. This waa promptly vetoed by him on the ground that the act of the legislature wan In conflict with section 24 of article v of the state constitution , which Is : "Tho ealarloa of the governor , auditor of public accounts and treasurer shall bo $2- GOO each per annum , and of the secretary of state- attorney general , superintendent of public instruction and commissioner of public lands and buildings , $2,000 each per annum. The lieutenant governor shall re ceive twlco the compensation of a senator and , after the adoption of this constitution , they shall not receive to their own use any fees , costs , perquisites of office or other compensation , and. all fees that may here after bo payable hy law , for services per formed by an officer , provided for in this article of the constitution , shall be paid in advance Into the state 'treasury. " Governor Grounso took the emphatic posi tion that an additional allowance for house rent waa unmistakably "other compensa- tlon'JJn thpmeaning of the constitution and rcfusedto approve the Item. The action of Governor Holcomb under similar circum stances Is a matter of recent history. The recent populist county convention was a curious combination of political In fluences. The main question before it waa called to order was whether the state ad ministration would bo able to control its proceedings. An examination of the records discovers abundant material on which tc nnswor the query either way. The greal desire of the administration populists , seconded ended by the very disinterested efforts ol the democrats , was to force A. J. Williams ort tl10 county commissioner ticket. This -\vnfl accomplished by seating the Hlbbard delegation from Union precinct and , when thla was done , It was conceded that the ad ministration had the convention In its grip. But subsequent proceedings scarcely sustained thla view. After carrying oul the administration program the delegates turned around and re-elected B. P. Moro- arlty , one of the most radical opponents ol the administration , as secretary of the county committee , and then topped off the proceedings toy adopting a set of rosoru- tlona In which Governor Poynter and his advlsora were moot cnerclletaly lampooned On this showing the question of supremacy seems to bo still open to dispute. A telegram received yesterday morning a' ' the local popocratlo headquarters from M. C Harrington confirms the understanding tha Harrington will withdraw from the congres sional race In the Sixth district In favor o Judge Neville , the populist candidate. The democratic managers had Intended to have Mr. Harrington publicly announce hla with drawal at the meeting at O'Neill that waa to bo addressed by Mr. Bryan yesterday , in or der that the move might bo made to have the greatest possible effect. Mr , Harrington tel egraphs that It was impossible for him to go to O'Neill , but that his formal rotlremen from the ticket will be filed In due time' A meeting of the populist county commit tee will bo called during the latter part of the week. The object la to make arrange ments for holding a aeries of meetings during the campaign , but the general feeling among < ho popullsta favors -waiting until about Oc tober 1 before beginning active operations. Tonight the republicans of the Fifth ward will hold a mass meotlng nt Almost Beyond Belief If It Were Not For Omaha Indorse ment , People Might Be Skeptical , ; ; . " No wonder people doubt.

That Hyan would defeat Craig was gen erally believed , but from the glowing ac counts of Cr.ilg'H ' dolnor the BrUons every one looked for a much better light than : hat which the colored man put up. He cnocked Hyan down In the second round , 3tU never afterward did he hold the upper land. II.s actions In the ninth round were dis appointing , as he wont down live times to avoid punishment. His face wns battered out of all shape when he came up for the tenth and If Bcfereo Slier had not In terfered nnd stopped the bout Hyan would certainly have finished his Job and put an end to Craig's fighting career before the end of the round.

PICKANINNIES' PERCH BREAKS YoniiRntrrn WntchlnK ItiifTnlo Show from Tree 1,1 nib Fall. Seven little pickaninnies astradlo the lknb of a tree at the side of the tent where Buffalo Bill's show was going on met with a serious disaster Monday afternoon. A hoard of penniless youngsters Infested the grounds all day , prcspeotlog for opportuni ties to see the performance gratis. One of the number , more enterprising than the rest , discovered a porch in the trees from which ho could peek over the flap of the canvass nnd see alf that happened within. The lad on the Jlmb was In plain sight of the crowd and It .wasn't long before other boys climbed the tree. The branch bent beneath their weight , but held , and seven of the youngsters were enjoying the treat of a life-time when a new-comer spied them and announced his Intention of increasing the number to eight. The llttlo fellows protested , ibut the new arrival waa larger than they and their pro tests did not count. He crowded out on the limb. No sooner had ho become com fortably seated nnd the other lads rcnumed watching the show than there was a crash. The limb fell without warning and precip itated Its occupants In a heap. There was confusion for an Instant , then those on top picked themselves up and out of the tangle of brown 'legs ' and arans one llttlo follow emerged with his hand banging loose and limp. The wrist was fractured in two places. Others of the eight rubbed bruised spots on various parts of tholr anatomy , but none of thccn wore seriously hurt. The lad with a broken .wrist was taken to the city Jail where Dr. Ralph set the bones. His name Is Theodore Thomas. He Is 12 years old and his father Is a blacksmith at Twentieth and M streets , South Omaha. The lad was taken to his home In the pa trol wagon.
