The 'crop of aldermanlo candidate is
thriving and both the republican and demo

the city council are willing to be renom
inated, but there are others anxious to flit
their aldermanlc shoes. This condition pre
vails in every ward In the city, Many of
the would-be city fathers are making an
active canvass in their respective wards,
acting on the principle that the early bird
secures the worm.
Charlea Huber, democrat, at present rep
resents the First ward, which has always
been considered a democ ratio stronghold
In the city council, but this year he will
not only meet opposition In his own party,
but the republicans will make a strong
effort to wrest the ward from their oppo
nents. While it is positively stated that
Huber will have opposition In securing
reoomlnatlon, there ,1s considerable secrecy
as to the Identity of I he man who will be
put up against him. On the republican
side three possible candidates are being
talked about. They are Carl Morgan,
George Hamilton and Charles Atwood. Any
one of the three Is regarded as a strong
candidate. "
In the Second ward E. R. Lougee, re
publican. Is desirous . to serve another
term, but J. D. Johnson, whom Lougee
succeeded in ths council, Is In the Held and
will make a fight for the nomination. The
Fecond ward is strongly republican, and
so far only one democratic possibility has
been talked of. He is W. B. Fisher, a
printer and labor union man, who Is being
urged as a candidate by his friends.
Fisher, however. Is not anxloua to run, as
his business requires all of his attention.
Kaox Against Brow.

democratic ranks contain several alder
manlo aspirants In this ward.- Among ths
number are John Mulqueen, secretary of
the Retail Grocers' association; Pat Gun
noude. Main street grocer, and John W.
Schoenlng, Implement dealer.
If C. W. McDonald is not nominated
for mayor Ije will be a candidate for alder
man again from the Fourth ward, and un
doubtedly will get the nomination if he
asks for it.- Slack- Peterson is Bald to bs a
candidate for alderman from this ward la
the event of Mr. McDonald's being nom
inated for' mayor.' Among the democrats
W. L. Douglass, keeper of a laundry, and
Charles Paschel are mentioned. Paschel

D. G. Clark, present alderman from the
Fifth ward,' Is out for a renominaUon, but
others In the republican party are anxious
to wrest It from him. - Hans Hansen, com
mitteeman In the Second precinct. Is an
avowed candidate, as is Chris Loseth of

ward in the city council. John M. Harden,
former street supervisor, is making a red
hot canvass, and A. C Harding, former
member of ths park board. Is also out In
the field aa an avowed candidate. '.
W. C Boyer, familiarly known aa "Uncle
Billy Boyer," democ ratio councllman-ax-large,
is a resident of the Sixth ward, and
it Is said he would prefer to represent his
ward rather than the city at large in ths
council, and for thla reason will be a can
didate for the democratic, nomination. W.
A. Wells is ssld to be also anxious to

The city council will meet Friday after
boos to consider' the two ordinances In
troduced Mondsy night la the Interest of
th Great Westers railroad, the ordinance
providing for the 'vacation of certain ave
nue, streets and alleys by the olty will
undoubtedly have to be amended before the
council will psss it. None ot ths aldermen.
It was Said resterday, will vote for the va
cation of Eighth street between Ninth and
Tenth avenues as provided in the ordinance.
Eighth Street Is the, longest through thor
oughfare In the city and Is practically th
only ae street that runs ' uninterruptedly
from the north to the south limits ef ths
city. Residents oh South Eighth street ar
up in arms at th mere suggestion of clos
ing this thoroughfare between toe avenues
named and if th council should decide ea
vacating the portion as requested by ths
railroad compaay, th matter would at ones
be taken into th courts.
Ninth street was vscsted - between
Eleventh snd Twelfth svenues over a year
ago to raabls the Rock Island to bultd Its
roundhouse, aad It Is said there will not bs
much objection to vacating the block be
tween Ninth and Tenth avenues. Tenth
afreet Is closed at Twelfth avenue by ths
Rock Island yards, never . having bTen
platted, aad th 'aldermen asked yester
day said they ssw no objection to vacat
ing this street between Ninth snd Tenth
avenues.
As the Grest Western Is figuring on
erecting its freight depot on Ninth avenue
between Sixth and .Seventh streets, there
would not tt much advantage of it in va
cating Ninth and Tenth streets and leav
ing Eighth atreet open. The refusal of the
city council to vacat Eighth street may
lead the railroad to change Its plana aa to
the location ot Its trslght depot.
It Is not thought there will be any
strong opposition to vacating the portion
of Fourteenth and Fifteenth avenue be
tween Third street and th Wabash tracks.
Neither of these thoroughfares Is opened
through th Wabash and Burlington yards
and as the railroad Is said to have ac
qnlred all the abutting property oa ths
portions of th two thoroughfares pro
posed to be vacated, no one will be In
jured. The purpose of ths vacation of
these two avenues Is to provide room for
the erection of a roundhouse, cost chutes
and other termlnsl : buildings on Third
street between Thirteenth and . Fifteenth
avenues. . '.
Msyor Jennings said he was unprepared
to say what the council would do In the
matter of the vacation ordinance, but from
talks he had had with several aldermen ha
was of ths opinion that they never would
consent to vacats any portion of Eighth
street, ths mala through thoroughfare of
the city.

H. Ferer, aa employ ot th United Typo-
writer Supply company ef Omaha, was ar
rested yesterday charged by Flickinger
Bros, with th theft of a Tost typewriter.
Flickinger Bros., who havs had the ma
chine for fifteen yeara in their possession,
claim ownership of It. while the United
Typewriter 8upr!y company insists that the
ownership Is still In It. ,
' Flickinger Bros, years sgo rented the
machine, paying in rental a aum equal to
the cost of tt. Through them several ma
chines of a like make were sold in this
city and a former agent for th Omaha
company presented Flickinger Bros, with
the machine.
For some tlms past th Omaha company
haa been endeavoring to secure possession
of th machine, but Flickinger Bros, re
fused to part with It. - A fw daya ago
Ferer called at their office, soliciting busi
ness. Ha was shown ths machine, and
after examining it stated what repairs were
needed. He wss allowed to take the ma
chine on the understanding that he re
turn it th next morning. Instead of the
machine cams a letter from ths Omaha
company, stating the typewriter was Ita
property and that before Flickinger Bros,
could got it again they must remit $30.
Ferer gave bonds for his appearance in
Justice Ferrier's court Friday morning. - .

as a result of thai reoafentne with Stats
Senstor Hatelton Monday, west to Das
Moines last evening to consult with the
state board of health in regard .to ths
smallpox situation.
Supervisor Baker Is of th oplnloa that
the law should be amended so as to em
power the county hoard to limit expense
incurred by local boards ef health. While
aot aertrl&c say change which will pre
vent ths local health boards from taking
all steps neceessry to promptly snd ef
fectively quarantine cases ot contagious

believes that patients as boos as qdaraa

agents ot ths county, who should be th
proper persons to furnish them with the
necessary supplies in, th event ot the pa

friends, and coarse Insinuations against
their wifely virtue, will be received with
perfect equanmlty; as to them, while It is
not cruel or Inhuman treatment. It does not

such treatment are rare. 'With a husband,

such a woman every curse snd foul epithet

good ground for divorce."
