PLUMBERS AND TIIE MILITIA United Aitociatioa Xeaffinnilta Pelicy with Eagard U Civilian Soldiar. DISCUSSING NATIONALIZATION PLAN Financier of Clear Makers' t ala Kx lalne Working? of System la ' Von with Hli Organisa tion) to the PI ambers. The relation of members of the Plumbers' union to the state guard and militia or ganlzallons other than United States volun teers waa defined by the convention of the United association yesterday. A resolu tion was Introduced by Horace Veach, a delegate from the Indlanapolla union, de claring that aa long aa the state mllltla la uaed for the purpose of protecting tbe priv ileges of the employers and to overawe em ploye no member of tbe Plumbers' union should enroll in any auch military organlia tlon. Tbe union baa a provision to this effect already In Its constitution, but there' bad been reports that aome of tbe mem bers bad disregarded It and tbe resolution of the Indiana delegate waa to reaffirm the position. In tbe discussion which followed the Introduction the author stated that It was In no way Intended to atop members of the union from enlisting in tbe armies of tbe United States or of any state when tbe country waa at war with any nation, but that It was aimed aolely at thoee mill tar? organizations whose members are em ployed the larger part of the time In civil pursuits. The resolution waa adopted by a practically unanimous vote. Tbe greater part of the time of the morning session was taken tip with the discussion of the nationalization plan. W. A. Campbell, International financier of the Clgannakers' union, was present by Invitation of the nationalization committee to explain the system In vogue In his society. The plan proposed by the plumb ers' committee Is a slight variation of the same system, the metbod of equalizing be tween; the local unlona being Identical. Replies to Questions. After his formal explanation Mr. Camp ball replied to questions asked by several delegatea and said that he would remain In the city during the time the convention la In session and will be pleased to anawer questions and explain difficult or obscure points to 'delegates at any time. He ex pressed himself as greatly pleased with the system as It operates in the Clgarmakera' union. A rising vote of thanks was given tbe International officers of that union for their courtesy In supplying information to tbe nationalization committee... While a majority of the members seem generally In favor of the committee's report, and tbe amendments ao far made are trivial. It is expected that a hot fight will come up later on the question of the proportion of dues to be paid by members to be retained In the local union. The-dues probably will be 80 cents a week and some delegates are In mvor of as much as one-third remaining In tbe local treasury, while others would V v Km tCtttll. ' ' RECEPTION TO THE PLUMBERS Delegatee Take a Few Hoars from Bastaess to Enjoy Them- . aelres. Tbe delegates to the International con vention of plumbers; who have been put ting In aome good faithful licks at legis lating for the last few days, deviated from the dry routine of business last night long etrougH'td; 40107 a K evening In' tbe -banquet ball. The occasion was a smoker given by locnl lodge of plumbers No. it and It was a "huge success." ' President Harry McVsa of Central Labor union, one of the most active local plumbers, presided at the meeting, when speeches, yarns and songs were In vogue. . There was mirth galore and enough of the serious side of life to gratify tboae not Inclined to laugh out the entire evening. .The attendance 'ws very large and the reception a successful one In every respect. Keep the: body healthy at this season by using Prickly Asb Bitters. It Is a neces sary condition to successfully resist ma larial germs. MORE MEN JOINING THE UNION treet Car Hea Bead lor President - Mafcoa to Coaae and Complete . Organisation. Tbe new street railway men's union held a, meeting lest night In tbe room over tbe Jacksoolan club and took In ten new mem bers. ' There were about 100 In attendance. This brings the total membership of the union up to something like 170 and the men look for larger additions at tbelr next meet-iff- . In view of. the opposition of the company to the union a telegram was sent last night to President Mabon of tbe Amalgamated As sociation of Street Railway Employes to come to Omaha and supervise tbe comple tion ana perfection of this organization. It la expected, therefore, that Mr. Mabon will be here within a few days and that he will be Instrumental lo- enlarging the ranks' of tbe new union materially. "We have no special grievance now," aatd one of the union motonnen lsst night. ' "We are not asking the company for anything but the recognition of our union, We did have grlevancea aome time ago, but they have been redressed and now wo are organizing lor our-own protection In tbe future. We are not looking for trouble and do not want any. We are determined to maintain our union though, and when the time cornea, which will not bo In the Immediate future i we may ask for more pay, for we believe we will be entitled to It "We look for naarlv ill nf Iha mn unite' with the organization. Of course there ire a few of tbe oldest fellows who will not, tor they think 20 cents an hour Is enough Woney, but prominent men are in sympathy kith our step and urge us to continue, not Intlclpatmg any trouble, but merely Justice In the Farnam street line there are but kiee men not In the union already.

REPUBLICANS OF WEST SIDE Seventh ana ninth Ward resale Hear Candidates Cornish ana Breen. The West Bide Republican club held the second meeting of Its existence last night with a large attendance, considering the number of voters of the neighborhood. The club Is composed of voters of tbe Seventh and Ninth wards, thoee from the former ward being In the ascendancy. E. J. Cor nish and John P. Breen, candidates for congress, and W. A. DeBord, candidate for county attorney, were present. Mr. Cornish wss tbe first speaker, say ing in part: "I do not expect a delegation for myself from the Seventh ward, as you have one of the three who presume for I understand It la presumption to be candi dates for congress. Under the peculiar conditions we are confronted with we are forced to light a congressional machine. I was In ohe fight In Sarpy county. In that county I bad a alight advantage. My brother and myself owned a farm there, paying taxes on about $30,000 of property, so the people of the county thought 1 would have some Interests In tbe county -I at least more than a man who had no In terests there. I also found that there were some disadvantages. In every town there was a postmaster, whose1 Influence had been pledged td work for Mr. Mercer'a nomina tion. Every member of the county central committee was pledged for Mr. Mercer, but while Mr. Mercer Is one of tbe best hand shakers In the state, he cannot convince every man that be really Is bis best and nearest friend. "In every precinct In that county there were circulated copies of the World-Herald which told what a good man Dave Mercer was. In that county there are three demo cratic papers all supporting Mr. Hitch cock and drawing, their inspiration from the World-Herald. These papers all ad- vised the republicans to work for Mr. Mer cer's nomination. I told the 'republicans of the county that Mr. Hitchcock was the probable candidate of the democratic party nd that the democrats would not advise the nomination of the , atrongest republican against the owner of l5e . World-Herald. Tbe expected has happened. Mr. Hitchcock waa the etrongest candidate of tbe party. Mr. Rosewater haa much Influence In the democratic party. Mr. Hitchcock was nom- lnated by the antl-Rosewater democrats. It was a wise political move', for If Mr. Mercer Is nominated he can get no antl Rosewater democratic votea this year, as they will all vote for Mr. Hitchcock. The republican nominee will have to be elected by republican votes this year." Mr. Cornish was followed by Mr. Breen, who raid, In part: "I have nothing to say sgalnst Mr. Mercer except so far as It Is deserved. Mr. Mercer makes the mistake of classing all of the men who oppose his nomination as followers of Mr. Rosewater. Everyone who knows roe knows that I have never been a follower of Mr.. Rosewater, and I do not like the light In which Mr. Mercer would place me. I simply claim the right of every American citizen to aspire to any office. I have supported Mr. Mercer for ten long years. Now, Id all candor,' I ask: How long is. Mr. Mercer entitled to remain in officer Has he the right after ten years in office to designate every man who would succeed blm as a yellow dog? All I ask is fair treatment and fetr play. I am done with Mr. Mercer and his record. I have lived In this district sixteen years. I am simply a laborer In the ranks. I hope you will select the best man for the place." ' W. A. D Board, when called upon, re ferred to bis candidacy for tbe office of county attorney, saying that he had never been a .candidate, previously and now asks for the position believing that Be can be elected and can fill the office rather than occupy it. ,- ' The last speaker -waa F.. O. ' Davie, who announced bis candidacy for tbe legislature. He said it bad been forced upon him, but now he was In the fight to the finish. The club adjourned to meet Tuesday ntgbt at Rlewe'a ball. SIXTH WARD CLUB MEETING Organisation Resolves to Indorse - President Roosevelt and His Administration. At the meeting of tbe Sixth Ward Re publican club last night a resolution waa adopted which waa Intended to show the club's thorough endorsement of President Roosevelt. On motion It was also decided to pame the meeting place Llnwood ball, as It haa heretofore been spoken of rather Indefinitely. The meeting was addressed by Messrs. J. H. Van Dusea of . South Omaha and F. A. Brogan of Dundee. The club waa . presented by President . W. G. Sbrlver with a framed precinct map of the ward, for which a vote of thanka waa given. Before adjournment W. M. White made the announcement that he la again a candidate for assessor In the ward. RIVELA BECOMING POPULAR Omaha Tarns Oat la Fore to-Hear , Mails Under His Baton. Rlvela and his Italian band played to about 2,000 people last night and made further progress In their work of becoming popular in Omaha. That the little band master will become the musical Idol of the city within the first week of his engage ment Is not doubted, for the people are al ready giving him unstinted applause. This Is, perhaps, because he has a band which, in many particulars, excells tbe organiza tions of previous musical festivals. A Wagner overture and a selection from Boito's "Meflatofele" were ' the big events of last night's concert and they were played . with remarkable technique. For encore numbers Rlvela made' some happy selections ' from the popular catalogue, catching the fancy of many hundreds of his auditors who know little of technique and care less. This evening Conductor Rlvela and Man ager Ellery will be entertained bjr Mr. and Mrs. Harry 8. Weller at dinner, covers to be laid for six. The other guests will be Mr. Marc E. Perkins and Dr. R. W.

RESULT OF CONFERENCE NOT GIVEN OUT tome Say that Mayor Told Llejaor Mea that He Coald Rat He vske Hie Order at This Time. A meeting behind closed doors was held yesterday afternoon between Mayor Kout sky and a doxen saloon keepers. At this meeting the liquor dealers took up tbe proposition of opening on Sunday and re maining open as late aa they pleased at night. All of the leading dealers were pres ent, as well as representatives of some of the breweries. Mayor Koutsky wsa In wait ing for the delegation to reach the city hall and he conducted the members of it Into the office of the city engineer, where the matter was talked over. As soon as tbe session concluded the mayor was reported among the missing, as he could not be found at his office or hla home. One of the liquor dealers asserted that the talk was a flat-footed proposition to open the saloons on Sundsy and that the mayor asserted that be could not do so at this time, but If the saloon men wanted to go ahead they could do so at their own risk. Another report waa that the mayor would leave the city on Sunday and that the police would close their eyes to any viola tion of the order promulgated seven weeks ago by the mayor. Oeta Another Chance. The trial of M. J. Duffy, charged with obtaining money under false pretenses, oc curred In the police court Friday, witnessed by a full house of spectators. The com plaint charged that Duffy had prevailed upon one Charles Korgle to pay him the sum of $5 In return for attorney's services to be rendered. Korgle claimed that not until afterward did he learn that Duffy was not an attorney. The trial was an Inter esting one, backed up, as It undoubtedly was, by tbe South Omaha Bar association, and simply excelled in technical points. After deliberating the entire afternoon the Jury reported to Judge King that it wag un able to arrive at a verdict, and after, some delay It was discharged. The case will again be tried In police court within the next few days. Little Flna-er Broken. Morris Travis, through bis attorney, i. Breen, flies a claim , against the city for $500 damages on account of personal In juries alleged to have befallen . blm on Twenty-third street, between L and M streets, a few days ago. He asserts that on account of a defective sidewalk he fell and broke the little finger of his left hand. Besides this, he was badly brulsad and bis feelings were hurt. He wants the city to pay him for the Injuries sustained. Streets Cleaaed Yeaterday. Acting under the . directions of Mayor Koutsky, the street force st work on the streets yesterday made a Vain attempt to do away, now and forever, with the debris on the streets of the city. Armed with brooms, baskets, tin palls and "gunny sacks.'' the corps of just four men started out, without a swagger, at an early hour. By noon they were receiving publlo con gratulations on the work accomplished, and when they ceased i bight they stated that no estimates would tie furbished as to what the would accomrjjii'h today. " Another Vlndaet Story. Rumor had It yesterday that there waa going to be a Viaduct . built across the tracks to the stock yards! It waa asserted that the Union Stock Yards officials and the Union Pacific people had agreed upon the amount to be expended, and that before long arrangements would be made for the construction of a suitable bridge. While nothing definite has been given out by either President Burt of the Union Pacific or General Manager Kenyon of the Union Stock Yards company, it is understood that negotiations are in progress and that the bridge will be built next year. Intersection Looks Bad. , The pavement at Twenty-fourth and N streets Is In bad abape and water is con stantly In the holea formed by the de pression in the pavement. When the con tract waa let to repair the pavement on Twenty-fourth street It waa found, after the work had commenced, that there was scarcely enough money on hand to com plete It, and , therefore, it waa slighted throughout. The attention of Mayor Koutsky was called to the condition of thla Intersection V day or two ago, but so far no attention has been paid to the request of property owners that the pavement be made so that It will at least shed water.

Smith said that the other m-febe'S of the CCESSSltUe ouui.l all like to wait for the return of Mr. John son, but the need of early action waa ur gent, aa Mr. Benedict, who has been In charge of the department of biology, and Miss Dint ruff, his assistant, both of whom were expected to remain, had suddenly re signed their positions, and something must be done to fill their places before the open ing of school. When a vote was taken on the adoption of the report Mr. Levy de clined to vote and Robert Smith questioned the propriety of permitting a member to so act when there was 'a bare quorum present While the discussion wss In prog rear, however, Mr., Cermak arrived and re lieved what might have developed Into a delicate situation. It. waa decided that it would be necessary to elect the teachers by ballot and all of them, including Mr. Claassen, were then balloted upon, each of them .receiving eight of the nine votes. It la to he presumed, therefore, that Mr. Levy voted Only for Prof. Claassen and one of the other members voted only for the othef two teachers. On the subject of additional room for the Saratoga school J. J. Smith recom mended that the board rent two rooms In the brick building at the corner of Twenty-fourth and Ames, . just opposite the school building. The rent of the two rooms Is $47.60, Including janitor service, which the board regarded as reaeonable, and the report was adopted. Beats All lie Rlrals.
