Eepublicani . Forced to Decide on New
Nominee, for. Mayor;' '
STANDARD BEARER FIRST NAMED DECLINES
Emersjeacr Flads Former Candidates
Loth to Enter Contest Acrlam -tlon
Plaa Finally Finds '
Favor.
Dell O. Morgan was -nominated Friday
night as the republtcsn candidate for mayor
In place of Colonel Charles R. Hannan, who
declined.
The first Intimation that Colonel Hannan
would not run was received at the Council
Bluffs office of The Bee Friday afternoon at
2 o'clock, la the form of the following tel
egram: "NEW YORK, March 21. To The Omaha
Bee, Council .Bluffs, la.: Absolutely Im
possible for me to accept nomination owing
to business engagements. . ' ,
"CHARLES R. HANNAN."
Tbe telegram was In answer to one sent
to Colonel Hsncan Thursday afternoon
after the convention, asking him If he would
accept the nomination. Following the dis
patch" received by The Omaha Bee came
several others of .a liks character to
friends of Colonel Hannan In this city, ' In
his telegram to B. M. Sargent, member of
the Board of Education,. Colonel Hannan
said: "Cannot consider nomination owing
to uncertainty of being at home this sum
mer." The news that Colonel Hannan could not
accept the nomination spread rapidly
through the city and within half an hour of
Its receipt the politicians gathered In knots
at the street corners discussing the situa
tion. That there , was something In the air
was evident even to the eye of a stranger
In the city.
The question arose, what was to be. done
under the circumstances?. Was the va
cancy In the ticket thus caused, to be Oiled
by the republican city central committee
or should the convention be reassembled
and the selection of a candidate for the
head of the ticket bp. left,. VCU?. t, ; ,-:
Methods Are" la Dvsbi.'
The first suggestion was to call the 'con
ventlon together again, but some were of
ths opinion that this could not be done, as
the convention on adjtfurnlng without day,
Thursday afternoon, had gone out of legal
existence. Chairman Brown of the cltf Can
tral committee, after a consultation with
several of .the. leader of 'the republican
party, decided to call a meeting of ths com
mittee In the. evening to flU, the vacancy,
and notices to this effect were prepared.
Before the notices were sent out, the serv
ices of a number of leading attorneys were
sought and they gave It as their opinion
that the convention should be reassembled
sod it was decided, to prevent any mistakes,
to recall the convention and hold a meet
ing of the city central committee, the latter
body to appoint such candidate, to nil ths
vacancy as ths convention might nominate.
The nominations as mads .Thursday aft
ernoon were, filed with the city 'clerk the
same evening, and yesterday being the' last
day, in which such nominations could be
filed. It was decided to hold tbe convention
at 8 o'clock In the evening. Notices to this
effect were then ' served . upon esch dele
gate, either by messenger or by means of
tbe telephone. - , -
The law provides that In tbe ' event of
a candidate's declining the nomination, or
dying before election, tbe . vacancy thus oc
casioned may be filled by the convention,
caucus meeting or primary, or other per
sons making the origins) nomination or In
such manner as such convention, caucus
meeting or primary has previously t pro
vided. If the time Is insufficient for again
holding such convention, caucus meeting
or primary, or In case no such previous pro
visions have been made, such vacancy shall
be filled by the regularly elected or.. ap
pointed executive or central : committee.
The city convention .Thursday failed to
Instruct or empower tbe city, central com
mittee to fill any vacancies that might oc
cur in the ticket
Wire. Palllaa- Resaaied.
When it was announced that the conven
tion would be reassembled, the- wire-pull
ing was begun and the frleida of ths sev
eral candidates who were before the' con
vention Thursday started uxVjliamalgnlng
anew The members of he Municipal Non
partisan league swept into the breach In
uppurfc ui meir vanaiaaie. o. r. nenry;
business men left their places ''of "business
to get out and work for ' the man of their
choice, and . the nomination for mayor on
the republican ticket again became the. all-
absorbing topic.
The names of a number of what were
termed compromise candidates were brought
out and discussed and Alderman Eldln H,
Lougee of the Second ward was again
trotted out 'as a possible dark, horse. On
sll sides the action of Colonel Hannan In
declining the nomination was regretted, .as
his election was generally conceded..
Ths convention, when It reassembled lsst
night, nominated Dell O. Morgan by accla
matlon to bead ths city, ticket. In place of
Colonel Charles R. Hannan. The nomina
tion was brought about after nearly an hour
had been consumed In caucusing,
When the delegates began to assemble at
the courthouse, word was received from 8.
F. Henry tlfat ha declined to be a candidate
any further, - and that under no clrcum
stsnces would bs accept the. nomination,
Some-, of his friends stvonce hastened to
his residence, requesting him to reconsider,
but be ststed that his decision was final.
Then cams ths intimation that Alderman
McDonald had retired and that Dell O
Morgan was no longer a candidate. The
climax was reached when It was announced
that W. F. Sapp would not permit hla
name to go before the convention again.
Left ' Wlthoat Candidate;
This left the convention without a can
didate before It and the search for' a man
who would accept tha nomination was- be
gun. Efforts were made to Induce Dr. H. B.
Jennings to accept the nomination, but he
wbuld not consent. Alderman Lougee was
absent from the city, end he would probably
have received the nomination had It 'been
possible to come to some agreement as te
who would succeed him as nominee for
alderman from ths Second ward. ' Party
leaders asked Colonel C, Q. Saunders if he
would permit bis psme to go before the
convention, "but he declined.
In the meantime tbe lobby became lm
patient and the noise In the hall resembled
that la a theater when there Is , delay Is
ringing up ne .curtain,
After considerable persuasion Dell
Morgan consented Jo, accept ths nomination,
provided It were given to- aha by acclama
tion. T Than Chairman Brown: reaped for
order and Attorney . Blsocfrard assumed, the
gavel and read a telegram .fraov Colonel
Hannan declining ths nomination.
W. F. Bapp took the floor -and aald be
deemed It. expedient no longer to permit

to him. He placed Dell O. Morgan In nomi
nation' and moved his nomination by accla
mation.' The convention was willing and
Mr. Morgan was accordingly nominated by
acclamation and the convention adjourned.
The city central committee met at the
close of the convention and selected Mr.
Morgan to fill the vacancy caused by Mr.
Hsnnan's declination.
Who the Candidate Is.
Dell O. Morgan, who now heads the re-
publican ticket. Is a successful business
man who has spent tbe grester part of bis
life In this city, coming here as a boy from
New York. He has been a member and
president of the Board of Education and
has long been prominently Identified with
the welfare and the Interests ot the city.
He Is In the drug business on Broadwsy.
Tbe first two days of registration for the
city election showed last night but a slight
Increase In most of the precincts. The In-
creasy was heaviest in tne second ana
Sixth wards, nearly fifty names being added
to the lists In these wards.
Only those who failed - to register last
November snd persons who have moved
from tbe precinct in which they were reg
istered at the November election are obliged
to register this spring.
Ths registrars will sit again Saturday,
