GRIST OF POLITICAL MILL
Voters Will Have to Get in Early at
the Primaries.
LIMITATIONS OF THE NEWLY ENACTED LAW

City
The republican committee Is seriously Im
pressed with the conviction that voters at
the primaries must get their votes In early
nnd that great care must bo exorcised to
prevent wholesale dlsfranchlscniout. It Is
liolleved that them will bo an unusually
heavy turnout this yenr to participate In the
primaries. The law limits the voting hours
to the seven hours between 12 o'clock noon
to 7 p. m. In wards having 1,100 republican
voters , with a full vote , It would be neces
sary to record nearly three voters to the
minute. It Is safe to nay , however , that In
n ward where the registered republican vote
V Is 1,100 the actual vote will hardly exceed
SOO , or a little less than two to the minute
If the voting ware regular throughout the (
day. It Is pasy , however , to see that unless
u fair proportion of the voters get to the i
polls early a rush during the latter hours :
would prevent many from voting.
Come perplexity has been occasioned by
the scarcity of copies of the election lao \ \
( o bo had. Owing to the many controversies
almost certain to arise over Its provisions
it Is necessary that the primary olllclals bo I
'supplied with copies with which to fortify
their decisions. Some members of the re
publican city committee wore of Hit- opinion
that synopses of the law should be printed
nnd furnished the primary ofllclals , but III j
was contended that any filch abbreviation of1 '
( ho law would hardly be convincing. It
might bo claimed by objectcrs that It was a i
garbled statement. KO It was decided best to
mipply cnch primary voting booth with n
copy of the book containing the elcctlou htu
in full. Owing to the lire thnt consumed ,
the North printing establishment In Mn- '
coin I he to books are difficult 'n obtain , and
It will bo necessary to bo now copies from
attorneys for use nt the primaries. Mean- | I

At the Seventh Ward Republican club
mealing decisive evidence was manifested
of the sentiment of ( lie party toward tnc j
men who went out of their way to opp s" I
the republican county ticket last fall. Ly-
man Waterman made a hid for .support for
his candidacy for tux commlpriloncr. hut was ! ( >
met with a volley of shouts , "Which ticket 1
'arc you golnx to run on ? " "Detter run
again by petition , " etc. This nrceo from 111'-
fact that Mr. Waterman last November , :
after bilng squnrely beaten for the nsscasar- i
lilp In the republican convention , had him
self placed on the ticket by petition against ,
the republican nominee , whom ho defeated I
'at the polls. Ills chickens then hatched "arc I
now coming homo to rocst. I
I
An entertaining discussion occurred nt I
iho meeting of diver republicans Thui - 1
day evening lo organize a political club. It
appealed that S. A. Lewis , a young man I I
I
\\lio had seen a similar organization brought
together at I.oa AnKelcu , Cnl. , wan the i
pilnclpal mover. The California organization | '
hud grovMi to a membership of goniiUblng
like 10.000 , nnd
howls could not BCD any
reason whatever why a like result may not '
bo accomplished here. The discussion was
over the name to be adopted. Lrwls evl-
denliy believed that there lo nimh in a' I
name. Ho wanted It called the "Abrabacn i
Lincoln Silver Hepubllcan Club. " claiming j j i
that the membership were unquestionably j
followers of Lincoln republicanism , and that I |
the national committee had flxod the name ,
cf the free coinage bolters as silver re I I
publicans. William Grabacb quoted the | '
scriptural Injunction against hiding a light
uuiler a half-bushel. He believed that the
IIQW organization thould have the word
"freo" art applied to ellver oinewheru in
It. It wau not enough to name < : ' .Silver Re
publican. " One patriarchal gentleman with
a rubicund face and a wealth of white
immtucho. who was called 'Squire Forbes ,
believed It would Inuru to the advantage of
the club to leave out the word "sliver , " and
adopt Uk > name simply of Abraham Lincoln
Kepubllran club , as many would join who
would not take readily to the name Ellver
republicans. In spite of hit ! eanirtst pretest -
test , however , the ten others prevent in
sisted on' naming the organization the
Abraham Lincoln Silver Republican club ,
and that Ij the name under which It will
come forth. .
OMAHA , Feb. 2. To the Kdltor of The
Hce : Sir Referring to the communication
In your column of "Political Oosslp" of Feb-
runry 1. relative to "a number of secret
meetings having been hold by certain republicans -
publicans of the Fourth ward , etc. , " lu
which the writer Is credited with being one
of the chief promoters , I desire to ay that
up to date two or three Informal meetings
have been held , but not "secret ones. " They
were open to all good republicans of the
Fourth ward. The meetings were called by
about a half dozen of good republicans , who
are neither oftlco holders nor ofllcc seeker ? .
These meetings were , and will be , In the j
Interests of good , efficient municipal sovern- ] j
ment : honest , competent men for ofllce who
do not need to be defended nnd whose
' pret-cnt record Is above qucution. The meet
ings held were wholly In the interest of the
above principles , nnd for the purpose of se
lecting an unpledged , unbranded delegation '
to the next city convention , composed of
men who have never Illled office , nor nro I
wanting office. i
I also desire lo nay thp meetings were
neither for or ngalnft any IlOKeivater , Web-
etcr or Moores faction. They werp called
nnd fully attended with the purest motives ,
without bias or prejudice , In the Interest of
the Fourth wnrd republicans lu particular ,
and the city In general. Honest republicans.
good citizens and taxpayers of this ward
are wonry nnd tired of the continual an- '
perslous and reflections cast upon men In
public ofllce , nnd , If possible , they dtnlrt >
to Innugurate a movement to put up a re-
I'tibllean ' ticket from top to bottom against
which no fair man can aay aught , with tbo
hope of having the coming city admlnlstra-
tlon In the ranks of the republican party , i
With this In view nnd with the thought of
a "public'office being a public trust , " econ
omy In municipal nITalrs. low tnxt > and ad-
jUKtment of many burdens placed upon the ,
:
ptoplo by parllE.in and Incompetent olllclalti , '
have these meetings been called and
promptly attended. Over 100 of the beet re
publicans of the Fourth ward have signified
by their word and signature their
Intention to help bring about a
better nlalc of nffolrH. Our city never
had a better prospect. To realize this longed- '
for state of facts them must be n better i
wet of men selected to fill our ofllccs , who
will honestly work for the good of the tnx-
payers and not the taxeaters. An otllce
holder is shortsighted who does not work
lo servo the Interests of the people nnd the i
taxpayerc. I
I am accused of trying to dislodge Mr. I
Sackctt fiom the ofllce of tax commluslnner.
I' deny the accusation. What I may have
said Is this : .Mr. Sackctt seems to spend
more time in trying to figure out how he can
Increase thu sum total amount of taxe-j than
In seeing ho\v ho can reduce them. I be
lieve ho IB efficient , but his efficiency runs In i
the Interests of the officeholders and poll- ,
tlclnns Instead of the people. Take otio lllua-
( ration of hie judgment on assessments of
realty. The northeast corner of Twentieth ,
and Fariium streets Is a vacant city lot , reg- ;
ulnr sizu. He assessed It at $10,000 ; the
county assessed same at1,000 ; total annual
regular tuxes as levied upon this vacant lot 1
for 1SS9 It over $365. The lot would not fell |
for $10,000. The total annual taxes per $1,000
of-nssciistiieiit collected In tbo city of Omaha
and Dcuglau county will average about $12.50 ,
while the same In Kansas City Is only $2.30 ( !
and In St. Paul $21.62.

I
Fifth Ward Republicans Decide to Dwell
Together in Peace.
TO HAVE BUT ONE PRIMARY DELEGATION
Counellniiinlc CninllitnH-H from the
Wiiril 1VIII Si-Hlf All Tliflr llf-
fcrciiucn fit the Primary
I'OllH.
The feature of the meeting of the Fifth
Ward Republican club Friday night , and the
one which called forth pleased comment
after adjournment , was the absence of all
friction.
Only onoo did a ripple appear upon the
even surface and this came near the end of
the meeting , following an address made by
President Robert Clancy of the Fifth Ward
McKlnley club , who was called upon for a
speech. He- spoke briefly , congratulating
the republicans upon their prospects of suc
cess in the coming municipal campaign and
calling attention to the necessity for har-
mcny in order that the normal republican
majority shall prevail.
"The Fifth Ward McKlnley club , " he said ,
"appreciates the need of harmony In this
ward and with this end In view at its last
meeting decided to select n representative
delegation of republicans from this ward ,
giving representation to both republican
clubs nnd to all factions , Fly this means we
hope to harmonize Fifth war < l republicans.
Thlfl delegation will be- pledged for Saunders i
for city treasurer and for Sackett for tax
commissioner. It will be unlnstructcd on the i
head of the ticket and will ha with the sin
gle. purpose of securing the nominations of !
Saekett and Suunders. " *
Directly after this addr a member of
the club moved that the action of the Me-
Klnley club bo endorsed nnd iho motion was
seconded. An amendment that a committee
bo selected from the club to confer with the
executive committee of the JIcKlnlcy club
relative to the representation of the various
elements , clubs nnd factions on the delogn-
tlon threatened to precipitate a spirited
argument , when Hugh Myers moved that
the entire mutter bo laid on the table. This
motion prevailed without dUwent and har
mony continued the watchword of the meet-
Ing.
The club was addressed by 13. W. Deln-
matre , W. II. Mallory nnd David H. Christie ,
candidates for the nomination to the city
council from the Fifth ward ; Bcecher Hlgby
and George W. Holbrook , candidates for city
clerk ; Oeorge Helmrod and Charles 1 .
Sounder * , candidates for the city treasur-
ershlp ; W.A. . Saunders and others.
A motion by Oscar Kngler , .supported by
Messrs. Delarmitre , Mallory and Christie ,
passed providing that the candidates for the
city council submit their names to the
voters of the. ward at the primaries and the
candidate receiving the largest number of
votes bo accorded the support of the eJuT )
and the delegate * from the ward In the city
convention.

ination for city comptroller bos been pro
jected by the Swedlsh-Ainerlcann In the
person of A. J. Coleson , a resident of the
Eighth ward. Mr. Coloson's candidacy al

Northwnll company of wholesale Implement
dealers. Mr. Coloson started out as a trav

his present rerponsiblo position and has

Sensationalism was not by any means the
marked feature of the populistlc primaries
I Friday afternoon. In every Word except
ono the primaries were cjulet and marked
by a light vote.
"
the Sixth ward B. F. Rutherford had
concluded thnt he wauled the endorsement
of the populists for thu nomination for mem
ber of the council and had put up a delega
tion In his Interests. T. G. Kellogg , for
I some reason , did not desire to see Ruther-
i ford thus endorsed nnd also projected a delI -
I egntlon Into the light. Kellogg was clerk of
' the primary board nnd Rutherford was on
hand all afternoon.
About eighty populists registered In that
ward and an effort was made to get them
I all out. Quito n number of them registered
j no "Independent" and to all such Kellogg
i objected strenuously , but was overruled by
i the other two members of the board , where
fore Kullogg threatened to carry a protest
into the county convention. The Ruther
ford ticket curried tbo day by a vote of
30 to 1C.

RABBI SIMON ON "BEAUTY"

Ancient C
At the Harnoy Street temple , Friday night ,
Rabbi Simon lectured oil the subject of
"Beauty. " After pointing out the preeminence
inence of the ancient Greeks In the produc
tion of things beautiful and calling atten
tion tn thn relation between beauty und
God , ho said :
"There to a difference between the Greeks
nnd the Jews In this : The Greeks worshiped
God in the holiness of beauty ; the Jews
worshiped God In the beauty of holiness.
Where the Greek snid nature Is beautiful ,
the Jew salil , yea , it Is beautiful because
God IB back of it. Where the ( Ireuk extolled
the beauty of heaven and earth , the Jew
said , yes , the heavens are beautiful because
they proclaim the presence of God , and the
earth because II showeth His handiwork.1
The speaker paid u glowing tribute to the
late John Ruskln.
"Bvldenco of his forthcoming greatness
was seen In hla love of nature as a boy , " be
said. "When n lad of 0 he WAX eo Impressed
with the beauty of a landscape that he went
homo nnd wrote a poem about it. From hla
father ho Inherited the love of beauty , from
his mother the love of duty from thu one
came the love of nature , from the other the
love of man , and Godi At a very early age
he developed a taMe for study of tbo scrip
tures nnd hla writings In mature life * are
permeated with biblical metaphor.
"In 1813 , when ho was 2\ years old , he
produced In 'Modern I'alntcia' his first nota
ble work , the purpose of which was to res
urrect art and lift It from the low plane It
then occupied , ills object was to make It
