10 THE OMATIA DATLT BEE: FItTDAV, SErTEMBEn 12, 11)02. GRANDSTAND PLAYER IS OUT lfrcer Eta the AtnnipWs Thra Timet and Thei Retire. HE IGNORES REPUBLICAN MEETINGS NOW VnirriMriil I iimrromnii Attends Only Three lint of Mnelren rinb Mrrtlna .ln-e the (lirnlnx of Portiere alonnl reropnlnn. "There has been some comment on my : failure to appear before the republican club meetings, and I want to explain that the reason 1 haven't attendrd any of these j meetings up to this time Is that I wanted to make my tint Hppcarance before this the club ol my own ward. From now on I will be wherever there Is a meeting of re publicans In this city, and I will be so much in evidence at club gatherings that some people will wish that I had stayed la Washington or Minneapolis. " The above declaration was made by David II Mercer at the meeting of the Seventh Ward Republican club on the evening of August 21. It was a part of the attempted peech by the nonresident congressman, made In a moment when he felt confidence In hla ability to discuss the Issues of hli campaign publicly. A few moments later, however as he listened to a scholarly and pointed address by John P. Breen, It must have occurred to Mercer that he had no business r the stump, but had best rely on the quiet political methods of the rail road corporations and the tricky tactics of Tom Blackburn and Will Ourley. So. Mr. Mercer very readily forgot his promise to "be so much In evidence at club gather ings." Since the night when he mado the promise there have Men Just nineteen club meetings and he has attended only three of them. Aside from making another arpearance in nls "own ward" Mercer has ventured out only In the Sixth and Eighth, appearing In the latter ward under the special protec tion of the Broatch-McDonald clique of pro fessional bolters, and In the Sixth only to Bee the honors of the evening carried off by Nelson C. Pratt. The First, Second and Ftfth m-ard organlzntlons, the McKlnley club and the colored republicans have sent him Invitations to attend their meetings, but he has not even had the courtesy to send his regrets. At Wednesday night's meeting of the colored republicans Mercer gnt as far as the bottom of the stairs, and then, hearln? that tho sentiment of the meeting was trongly against hlra, turned on his heel and hurried away. "It Is easy to understand why Mercer floes not appear at republican meetings," said a well known politician. "He has been ordered by his managers to keep away be cause they realize that he has no argument whatever to advance for bis renomlnation and re-election. Hla boasting tactics are away below par In this campaign. When he tries to tell the people that he Is the one and only great man to secure public build ings and other government favors for Omaha he reaches the end of his rope, and It's not a very long rone at that. There was a time when a good many Intelligent people were Inclined to give Mercer tho rredlt for Omaha's splendid postofflce build ing, but the fact that 11,200,000 of the ap propriation for that structure was secured by John A. McShane, a one-term congress man, baa been published so conspicuously of late that Mercer's attempt to sop up all the credit for that work doesn't go now." The following notice, signed by Charlea A. Ooss, chairman, and W. A. Messick, sec retary, of the republican county committee, has been sent to the members of that com mittee resident In the country precincts: There have been so many Inquiries that we think It proper to Ihhub general advices to all country precincts that the county central committee has done away with the fling and the printing of official ballot by Ihe committee for any and all of tha coun try precincts. You will hold your primary election on Friday, September 19, 19'2, to select five delegates to the county conven tion, three to the congressional convention and one to the Judicial convention. You must vote by some form of ballot to be determined upon by yourselves and must keep the polls open from 7 to 9 p. m. Give the delegates elected their certificates of election to the respective conventions and report the results of the vote for county and Judicial delegates to us, as usual, and the result of the election of congressional delegates to the congressional committee, ns decided by the county committee on August 30, 1902. The populist party of Douglas county held primaries yesterday, apparently In the coat pocketa of the ward leaders. Nino delegates from each Omaha ward, five from each South Omaha ward and five from each country precinct were to be named for next Saturday's county convention In Washing ton hall. The county convention will choose the delegates to the congressional and Judicial conventions, both of which will convene Immediately after the county body adjourn. The principal business of the day appears to be the double-crossing of one Peter Hofeldt, democratic nominee for county commissioner. The complaint la made that three years ago the populist wanted the place for Frank B. Hlbbard of Arling ton and that Hofeldt and the democrats then agreed that If H'bbard would step aside then for Peter the Silent he (Hlbbard) should have the nomination this year. As a side-stepper Hofeldt has proved a failure and now the popullstlc axe I whetted for hla political neck. A prominent populist aid yesterday that Hlbbard stands ready to spend good money to gat even. "The rest of the democratic county ticket will be endorsed probably," said the same "An All.Day,FoodM ( mud Pare 1'nlt (onklatf, Never before In tha history of concen trated ana predtaekttjd fooda have manu faclurera been able to prepare any cereal In a manner that would be at once highly outritloua, saUsiylng to the auuetliea of the strong well as the weak, Ueltclima to me taste or nearly everybody, and equally well adapted to serving at breakfast, din ner and supper.

The First Ward Republican club will meet this evening at Lincoln hall, corner of Sixth and Pierce streets, for the purpose of transacting club business. J. A. Easton and few other socialists have decided to organize a local section of the party on Walnut Hill and will meet at Fortieth and Hamilton streets for that pur pose. These socialists are follower of Bor nard McCaffery. who Is said by the Balrd faction to be out of line with the regular organization. David Anderson, an old wheel horse In the republican party, and the man who cast the first vote for David H. Mercer ten year ago, Is not among the congressman's present supporters. In an Interview yes terday he said: "I believe the nomination of Mr. Mercer would prove a temporary calamity to the party and citizens generally of the Second congressional district because I believe It would mean the election of a' democrat from a republican district to a republican congress which all loyal and patriotic re publicans would deplore. "Ten years ago I cast the first vote In the convention that gave Mr. Mercer his nomination and proved steadfast to him until he exploited himself as a candidate for the United States senate and Joined In the crusade against and defeat of Mr. Rosewatcr, whose claims were far above those of any other Individual In the state and who for thirty year proved to be the moat able and best exponent of the grand old party and Its beneficent policies west of the Missouri rlvef. Our friend Dave seems to have lost hl's political equilibrium and sagacity. His record In congress ha given pretty general satisfaction to hla constituents; the argument advanced that he has served long enough and should be retired contain no logic whatever, as most eastern and southern states retain their senators and congressmen almost Indefin itely on account of the knowledge, large ex perience and Influence acquired In that school of statesmanship. No business man or employer of labor would think of dis missing a worthy and competent employe so long as he performed good service to make room for a new and Inexperienced one. vHowever, I hold the Interests and suc cess of the republican party to be of far more importance than the political aspira tions or ambition of any Individual and therefore believe it would be very Im politic and unwise, considering the pres ent unfortunate status of our party In this district at present, to give Mr. Mercer an other nomination." For a good and sufficient reason the Sev enth ward republicans washed no dirty linen at their meeting acheduled for last night. The goad and sufficient reason was that enough linen waa strung around on clothes lines in their hall at Twenty-seventh and Leavenworth streets to clothe everyone present 136 pieces In all, and every piece was spotless white. This revelation waa not made until almost 9 o'clock, and it waa too much for the crowd and the meeting was. called off. By 8:30 o'clock over fifty republcans had congregated In front of the place, awaiting the arrival of President Thomas to open and light the hall. Mr. Thomas arrived. "Come on boys" was his greeting, and armed with a lighted match he lead the way up the dark stairs. He unlocked the door by the flickering light and stepped in the hall. He stopped, the light went out and then be came out. His hat was gone and across Ms shoulders was a pillowcase with the water recently wrung from it. Reinforced with more matches and more men Thomas again made entrance to the room. The gas wa lighted and the room by gaslight was certainly startling. From the southeast to the northeast cor ner was a long rope upon which waa sus pended wearing apparel. On the west side of the hall, running the entire length, was another rope, and this waa heavy with Its load of recently washed linen. Next Thursday night It Is expected that the tent wtll be ready for the Seventh ward ers and President Thomas has promised that it shall not be turned Into a drying room before the first meeting Is held. CHRONIC DIARHHOBA Cored by One Bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera anal Diarrhoea Remedy. 'My father had for year been troubled with chronic diarrhoea and tried every mean possible to effect a cure, but an to no avail." says John H. Zlrkle of Phlllppl, W. Va. "He saw Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy advertised in the Republican and decided to try It. The result is one bottle of It cured him and he has not suffered with this disease for over eighteen month. Before taking this remedy he waa a constant sufferer. He Is now sound and well and, although (0 years of age, can do aa much work as a young man. These are fact and you can use the above If you desire." Mr. Zlrkle and bis brother publish the Phlllppl Republican. SHE LOSES GOODS AND MONEY Why Kmma Koseilong Soe a Sontb Omaha Justice of tha-. Peace.

Hrheldius, Holland Helm Curtis, Lincoln U DELEGATES WILL KEEP HOUSE Maij ViiiUr to Christian OonTtntion Lok for Unfurnished Bandancat, HOTEL LIFE IS DISAGREEABLE TO THEM Dally Papera In Lance Cities Are Be alnalnar to Devote Moth apace to Advance Stories oa Blar Convention. Letters from prospective delegate to the Christian church convention Indicate that not only will the hotel and boarding house space be filled, but that there will be an active demand for unfurnished houses dur ing the time the convention is in session. Writing from Minneapolis a prominent at torney oaks tho committee to secure for him a large vacant house and to ascertain what furniture can be rented for during the convention time. He will form a party of friends who will attend the convention from the first to the last day, and they take this method of securing the comfort of home in strange place. From other parts of the country comes word that there will be several such parties formed and the en tertainment committee is not only securing a list of private houses where board and lodging can be secured, but fa also ascer taining where unfurnished rooms can be found during the convention. This plan of housekeeping in the conven tion city is almost exclusively confined to the religious gatherings. There are many delegates who are averse to mixing with the haphazard crowds at hotel and do not like the accommodations at private boarding houses. They therefore move their families or party of intimate associates to the city and set up establishments, renting from supply houses the necessary furniture. Keonomy Mot the Object. Economy is no object with these people, a the furniture rent will generally cost as much as the entertainment of 'he party at a public house, but they have absolute free dom of action and can have their meals prepared aa desired and also have a place where they can entertain friends while In the city. In addition to those who desire to rent vacant houses for the convention dates there are several who are looking for fur nished houses, and this list will probably Increase as the convention day approaches. Most of the inquirers desire to get loca tion near the convention hall, and the ef forts of the entertainment committee will be largely centered In that part of the city at first. It Is expected that the subcommit tees of the districts will report to the chair man of the entertainment committee next week, and that by October 1 the entertain ment committee will be ready to begin to assort the house cards for use during the convention. The convention Is beginning to attract the attention of the metropolitan press of the country. Last week one Chicago paper devoted half a page to the meeting, illus trated with half-tone pictures of the Coli seum and some of the active workers- on the local committee. Other papers are now re questing advance stories, so that the meet ing will be advertised in the larger cities as It has never been advertised before.

Ostrander, accond, adminis trator of the estate of W. B. Ostrander, who died about a month ago leaving a aaloon on Fifteenth street and other prop erty sufficient to make a total of about $20. 000.

O. C. Crawford, who rooms at 7194 North Sixteenth street, the house presided over by Frank Johnson, believe that he I a much-abused man and the following Inci dent recited In police court yesterday show that he was the victim of some bard luck. Crawford began the night by cleaning a pair of trousers with gasoline, or rather he began to clean. After rubbing at a grease spot for some minute Crawford lighted a match to see If the spot was gone. It was, In a very few minutes, and the blaze threat ened to do away with the rest of the trous ers. Crawford made a heroic effort to sub due the flame by striking the trousers on the floor. The second strike hit the bottle of gasoline, "which upeet and caught fire. By this time the entire floor of the room waa one big blaze. Crawford beat out this fire with the trousers and then began to make for the bottle. Falling to subdue this blaze, be gave the bottle a kick which sent it downstairs. In If flight the bottle reached the bottom of the steps as the pro prletor of the house began the ascent to Crawford' room. This created some little nervousness on Johnson's part, and as he made a grab for the bottle he barely missed Crawford, who wa hot on the trail of the flaming bottle. . After the fire had been extinguished and the remainder of the roomer had quieted down, Johnson demanded an explanation from Crawford. It was the wrong time to demand anything from Carwford. Craw ford was mad. As Johnson repeated his de mand for an explanation, Crawford waa picking up pieces of charred trousers on the floor of his room, but Johnson didn't take warning. Crawford finally told Johnson It waa none of hla business and heated word were exchanged. Johnson then had Crawford arrested for fear that he would burn his house. Judge Berka put the finishing touches to Craw ford's run of hard luck by fining htm $3 and costs. LOW RATE. Home-Seeker' Excursion Via Mis souri Pacific Railway.

The history of the trouble Is a history of a love affair, a rich wiaow ana a burned barn. Jargens. who 1 about 30 vears old. Is said to have fallen In love with Chrlstlanla the 20-year-old daughter of Elizabeth Rain, who has a farm near Florence and not many more year to live. Charles Day, a brakeman. 25 years old and livlnr at h station, recognized the charms of Christian ai aoout the same time, and the girl found nerseir suddenly Dossessed of two suitor who didn't suit each other at all.

He hauled in several lnmla including one on September 2.
