A sample of the Mercer campaign meth ods came to light yesterday, although care ful effort was made to keep It under cover. It was a Sunday political entertainment pre pared by Will Ourley. and was designed to get voters In the Syrian colony In line for the non-resident candidate for congress. Al though the entertnlnment was given at the tome of Ellas Ulna, the husband of the woman, Bader Mlna, whos was charged with being Implicated In the murder of Najeeb Baldy and who win defended In court by Mr. Gurley, the real host was D. H. Mercer. Keg beer; Syrian candy, sweet cookies and cigars of the alleged value of 15 cents were the refreshments. The Syrians had been led to believe that Herman Kountze, who fur Bished Mrs. Mlna's bond, was to be present, but In this they were disappointed. Instead A. C. Harte, chairman of the finance com mittee of the Board of County Commis sioners, was presented. By the same suave argument that Induced Ellas to give up $1,500 for legal services last winter, Mr. Ourley convinced him a few days ago that to have the heaven-born congress man cross his threshhold would be to place himself In the favor of the gods for all time and the unlettered Mlna proceeded to rus tle hard for a full ateodance of the Syrian voters of the Second and First wards. But the result was dismally and distressingly disappointing.' There were Just eight bona fide Syrians present and only two others of voting age, one of whom was Mlna's next door neighbor. Mercer and Gurley left the rsr at Thir teenth and William streets, two blocks from the house, for reasons beBt Known to them selves, and walked the rest of the way. A crowd of Syrians stood not far from the bouse and smiled as they recognized the pair, but failed to follow cn. Mlna was vis ibly annoyed, for there was only one ex planation of his countrymen's conduct, and that reason was one that he couldn't very well give without hurting the feelings of the non-resident from Washington. Besides, the $5.60 keg of amber brew was hard to keep from souring and the candled elephants and camels were already beginning to melt. It being Sunday, and some of his neighbors being of pious inclination, both the beer and the county commissioner had been smug gled up the back stairs. Mr. Ourley towed the hesitating Mr. Mercer up to the Mlna front door at ex actly 4:43, which was Just forty-eight minutes behind schedule time. The anxious host and hostess, with four babies and a sister-in-law. had been hovering uneasily at the front door of their home, 1462 South Thirteenth street, a few feet from the scene ol tne murder, for fully liiiily mla utes. Mr. Ourley removed his hat and bowed. Mr. Mercer, feetlng called upon to do a little better, bowed also and said: "Allah, whooplalla," the same being the best he could do In the way of Syrian salutation. Mlna looked puzzled and responded In English. Then Mr. Mercer spied the babies and of course the rest was amootb sailing. The party was to have continued Into the evening, but when the politicians sized up the little crowd In Mlna's apartments and the little crowd sized up the politi cians the situation became, embarrassing and the visitors soon began to leave. By ( o'clock the function had passed into his tory, recorded as another of Mr. Gurley's master strokes as a campaigner. "Have some beer on Mercer." That cheerful slogan has been working overtime during the past week, and It will not be permitted to rest until after sun down next Friday night, when the last of the ballots are In at the primary election. Devoid of argument, without the ability to discuss congressional affairs, with the ma jority of thinking republicans disgusted with his long bunco game, and with the desperation of a drowning man, the non resident candidate has turned to beer as a campaign measure. A keg of beer here and a keg of beer there. In some places where It Is called for and other places where It Is not. Is expected to make the recipients think that Mercer Is "a good fellow" to vote for, and therefore the am ber fluid Is being sent out freely every day by the managers of the Mercer campaign. Saturday a keg of beer was sent to the worktngmen at the Willow Springs distil lery "with the compliments of Dave Mer cer." Some of the men drank the beer, but none reflected that he tasted anything In it like a favorable argument for a can didate for congress. Most any place that David sends a keg of beer will provide the men to. drink It, for at every turn of the road there are men who are glad enough to drink up a little corporation money. Al though the message that accompanies the keg reads, "With the compliments of Dave Mercer," It's a dull man who doesn't read between the line, "With the compliments of the Union Pacific Rstlroad company." "I happened' In at a Mercer beer-fest the other evening," related a Second ward democrat the other day. "Of course, the fact that I'm pretty well known among my neighbors as a democrat didn't lose me any credentials at that party,. It was free beer, and everybody was called In to have a drink on Dave Mercer. Among the re publicans there I nottced quits a number who are even out working agalast Mercer. It doesn't look to me a lf,the republicans tn the Second ward are as ready to swallow Mercer as they sre his beer." The ' resourceful methods of Mr. Mercer The Interests behind Mercer have sue cerded In pressing several bankers of Omaha Into the Mercer service. It is re ported that Herman Kountze is to head the Mercer delegation In the Flrit ward and It Is settled that M. t. Barlow, presi dent of the United States National bank will be on the Mercer ticket In the E.ghth ward. Anoher Indication that Mercer realizes the strength of the opposition Is furnished I by the fact that he has enlisted the pack ing house and stock yards managers of South Omaha to corns' to his rescue. Frank I Lee, assistant superintendent at Armour's, I has been commissioned chief quartermaster and chief paymaster for the stock yards ! district, and the Oral move be made was to engage all the horse and horseless ve ' hides In the Magic City for primary day. It has been given out that the employes at the parking houses and stock yards are ! to be driven to the polls with Instructions j to vote for Mercer, the design belpg to ; capture the primaries by main force. A great rumbling of wheels Is- anticipated, but what the men will do when they get to the voting places may not be according to the plans of their taskmasters. It is a safe bet that Dave Mercer never worked harder In his life than he Is work ing just now. His usual "Jollying" pur suit, such as shaking hands and kissing babies. Is being slighted somewhat because he finds it necessary to devote considera ble of his time to his so-called literary bu reau. Autograph letters are being played for first, second and third places. They are being sent to some of the judges of the primaries these letters being desperate appeals for help. Then Mercer has writ ten to a number of other citizens, begging tbem for support and promising, with a prodigal hand, to give tbem positions and pensions in the future. Mercer, as many republicans of this district have long since found out, is a great man to play on the future and always long on promises.

NEBRASKA LABOR CONVENTION Aaaaal Meeting; of Society of Labor and Indnstry Nest Montn. The annual meeting of the Nebraska So ciety of Labor and Industry has been called to meet at South Omaha October 9. It was the Intention to have held the sessions during the Ak-Sar-Ben week, but when the executive committee came together to Issue the call the members found that sev eral of the unions would not meet until the first week In October, and therefore could not elect delegates to the convention, which was therefor called for the second week in the month. The society will be composed of dels gates from each local union In th stats, and will be called for purely political ac tion, this being the only political action taken by the unions. Burt Bush was elect ed secretary of the society temporarily, as both the secretary and assistant secretary have removed from the state. W. H. Bell, business agent of ths Painters' union of this city, Is president. The value is in the Soai o P A 9 Baa w. -av. a. a aw a pwu u r n n Soap and save Never mind the wrappers Made by Swift & Company GRANDPA'S DAY TO SPEND Small Boj Has Ringiiogt' Circus to Offer for Investment. MUSHROOM CITf GROWS IN AN HOUR Isty-FIre Cars Brlna; It from York Snndny Moraine- and Sts Hun dred Men Rear Its Can vas Malls. A mushroom city has sprung up at Twen tieth and Paul streets and with It have sprung up, away up, the hopes and ex pectations of several thousand Nebraska children and several thousand other peo ple who ccaeed to be children a long time ago. Within the boundaries of this Juve nile paradise are elephants, tigers, lions, gilded wagons, a calliope, chimes, clowns oh, gee! so much that no kid could tell of It all. This morning there Is to be a parade that won't cost anything and this afternoon there is to be a show that won't cost anything either If grandpa can be found. Tonight there Is to be another show and then only a vacant lot and a head full of glorious memories, a heart full of Mgh aspirations and secret determina tions. Aboat a Mile of Cars. Sunday was well advanced when the great yellow wagons bearing the magic name, Rlngllng Brothers, began to roll from the cars at the foot of Davenport street. The last show point was Tork and the trains bad come In slowly over the Burlington. The Ringllngs have sixty-five cars for the equipment and an additional ten for the 300 performers, and such of the 100 members of the executive staff as are not in the three advertising cars that precede the show. There is also a night lunch car where the men may get a sand wich and coffee after the loading Is done a provision that was suggested by the management's desire to prevent the men losing out by night trips to the saloons of the cities visited. V Regiment of People. There are 1,000 people with the show, 600 of whom are "raxorbacks" or other gen eral utility recruits. Of the 600 horses 216 sre draft animals and these trotted briskly to the show grounds with the mammoth wagons yesterday forenoon as fast as the latter could be unloaded from the cars. At the lot "Happy Jack" Snelllng, boss canvassman, was ready and the colossal tents went up with a rueh, not so marked as that which Is necessary on week days when a performance Is In Immediate pros pect, but fast enough to prove a spell binder for the hundreds of Omahans who hovered about the grounds to see the work. They're Looking; Well. Though the season Is far advanced the circus properties are etill resplendent and the show seems unusually well equipped this year. The Ringllngs are established as a business Institution and are at the head of the hippodrome list, but they are not. It appears, relying on reputation for buBiiieea. The uliow Is uu eveu larger one than last year's and the parade at 9:30 this morning promises to be more entertaining If possible than Its predecessors. No Substitute Offered. Bay what you will about druggists offer ing something "Just as good" because it pays a better profit, the fact still stands that ninety-nine out of a hundred druggists recommend Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy when the best rem ady for diarrhoea is asked for, and do so be cause they know it Is the one remedy that can always be depended upon, even In the most severe and dangerous cases.
