Thers Is at tb county com
mlsnloners' chamber in the court house
a franchise for a surburban electric .road
or roads through Itouglas county and for a
telephone linn In connection with the samo,
waiting the acceptance or refusal of Wil
liam IIaydn ef tho Harden Brother' de
partment atore. The franchise waa granted
yeat. relay by Commissioners Ostrom,
O'Keeffe, Connolly and Harte, the fifth
member of the board, Hofcldt, being ao
buay with hla political fenres in the coun
try diatricta that he hasn't been at th4
court bouse for several daya and could noi
attend this morning's meeting.
Chaoses Hayrien'a I'ropoiKlon,
Mr. Hayden filed bin first request with
the board two weeks ago, and It was hinted
that the $1,000,000 capital required bad been
offered him while he waa In Boston and
New York a month or more ago, and that
be could begin building Inside of a year.
The board seemed receptive and so he filed,
a few days since, a blank franchise for Its
approval. In this, however, he asked five
years from January 1, 1904, In which to get
Ave miles of road Into operation and to
this clause Commissioner Ostrom objected,
arguing that the time was needlessly long.
The commissioner proposed drawing up a
new franchise, and this was done. In It the
date of getting five miles of road Into oper
ation was brought one year nearer; Hay
den or his assigns are required to provldo
thirty-two-foot crossings wherever the
lines cross roads; are required to use only
good material; are required to bear the ad
ditional outlay for bridge work; are re
quired to maintain continuous operation of
ears, and are made to agree that the price
of the franchise alone shall be but $1 In
case the county should In future desire to
purchase the property. None of these stip
ulations were In the franchise proposed by
the petitioner.

Omaha Psplla Not Concerned la Ttto.
Year Arrangement at Nor
anal Mcheel.
W. R. Homan baa received letter from
W. A. Clark, bead of the state normal
school at Peru. In which the writer en
deavors to make plain the action of tho
regents In changing the course of study
there. The letter refers to the action of
the Omaha Board of Education In asking
that the one-year course be restored, ao
that graduates of the Omaha High school
may obtain a diploma from the normal
school ns In previous years.
Mr. Clark ssys that ao far as the one
year course la concerned there has been
no change, except the substitution of In
struction and practical demonstrations In
pedagogy for the "practice teaching"
which previously existed, and that this
change has been made by all of the leading
normal schools of the country. He fur
ther says that a two-years' course has
been provided for pupils from schools other
than a half dozen In the state, Including
Omaha, where the standard is high, and
this Increased length of term la for the
purpose of giving the graduates of the
smaller schools more practical work and
drill In English branches. He says the
pupils from Omaha are taking hold of the
work in first rate shape and that by fol
lowing the one-year course they will bs
found fully equal to their predecessors.
Mr. Clark takes kindly to the idea ad
vanced by Mr. Homan of making a diploma
from the state normal sufficient warrant
for the employment of teachers in tho
graded schools of Omaha without prelimin
ary examination, and says that such a
course probably would strengthen the
school, as well as Improve the quality of
teachers which may be secured by Omaha.
CUTS DOWN TEACHING FORCE
One Room Is Closed at Each of
Six of the Pnbllo School
' Buildings.
Six rooms in as many different schools
have been closed by the Board of Educa
tion within two weeks, the last closing
being ordered Monday evening at a ses
sion of the teachers' committee. By the
order one room is closed in each the Far
nam, Cass and Saunders schools. A week
ago one was closed at each tho Pacific,
Windsor and Lincoln schools. By this
action there are thrown out of employment
six teachers and the salaries of the princi
pals of the schools In question are reduced
15 per month. A member of ths teachers'
committee said:
"The rooms were closed because there
is falling off in the attendance, which
makes it possible te accommodate the
pupils in the smaller space. It is Im
possible to give any one reason i for the
smaller attendance which will apply In all
cases. In some instances it represents
the removal of families from the wards in
which the schools are located, and there
is an Increase in the attendance of some
of the other schools. In other oases there
Is no doubt that It represents removals
from the city, as a large number of former
employes of the Union Pacific shops have
left town, seeking work in other places.
It is Impossible to say what teachers are
to be let out by the last reduction, as
the grades are being reorganised in the
schools, and until this has been completed
it is Impossible to say who will be
dropped."
Don't Accent Connterfelts.

RECORDS SAID TO DISPROVE HIS STORY
First Arrest Growing; Oat Regis,
tratlea This Year others Wit
Make Declarations To
Late Tata.
On complaint of dernoc ratio campaign
managers a warrant was Issued yesterday
afternoon for the arrest of Charles Oautier,
a resident of Omaha, charged with regis
tering Illegally In the Second district of
the Sixth ward on October 24, at which
time he gave his place of resldonce as
4617 North Thirty-seventh street.
It is charged that in answer to the ques
tions of the registrars Oautier swore that
he took out his first or declaratory papers
In New York City In 1890. An examina
tion of the records of the clerk of the dis
trict court showed that ths first papers of
Mr. Oautier had been issued at Omaha and
on the same day that he registered In the
Sixth ward.
Tha law requires foreign persons who
desire to vote In ths si .its of Nebraska to
take out their first papers at least thirty
days before the day of election.
A number havs taken out declaratory
papers this fall too late to acquire citizen
ship In the stats In tlmo to vote at the
coming election. A list of their names
with the date that their papers were Is
sued Is as follows:
Joseph Joeblousky, October 6; John Olson,
October (; Christian Rasmussen, October
11; Christian Carl Christiansen, October 16;
Albin Kostal, October 16; Eggert Ehlers,
October 17; Martin Kusch, October 17; Slg
ward Pettros Skas, October 23; Patrick F.
Callahan, October 23; Prtmo Ranxa, Oc
tober 24; Charles Gauller, October 24. It
Is understood that some of these men ex
pected to vote at the coming election and
a watch baa been put upon the polling
places to detect them If they offer to vote.
It was rallying night for the democratic
voters of the northern part of the city
last night and meetings were held at
O'Neill's hall. Sixteenth and Cuming
streets; Idlewlld hall, Twenty-fourth and
Grant streets, and McKenna's hall, Sher
man avenue and Locust streets. O. M.
Hitchcock opened the meeting at McKen
na's hall at 8 o'clock, being followed by
James P. English and C. O. Lobeck. Mr.
English opened at O'Neill's ball and was
followed by Mr. Hitchcock. Mr. Lobeck
opened tha meeting at Idlewlld hall and
was followed by Mr. Hitchcock, Mr. Eng
lish closing the Idlewlld hall meeting. A
number of fusion candidates were present
other than the advertised speakers.
. C. H. Jenssen, who voted In the Fourth
ward at the republican primaries Septem
ber 18, nd whose residence was given as
626 South Twenty-fifth avenue, now re
sides at 2207 Farnam street. He says that
the reason he could not be found at the
address given In the poll book Is because
he moved and has had his mall delivered
at the Union Paclflo headquarters, where he
works. This is the second only of the men
who voted in the Fourth ward who could
not be found at the addresses given to
show that they are legal residents of ths
ward.
With Ostrom, O'Keeffe, Connolly and
Harte present, the Board of County Com
missioners yesterday unanimously ap
proved ths following, introduced by Con
nolly: .
Whereas; It has been publicly reported In
ths press that efforts are being made to
colonise voters, and that an attempt will
bs made to poll a large number of Illegal
votes at the election next Tuesday, Novem
ber 4; and,
Whereas, The report Is generally believed
to be true, and there are evidences pointing
to such an attempt to violate the sanctity
of the ballot and bring fraud to bear on the
lection; therefore, be it, by the Board of
Commissioners of Douglas county. Neb.,
Resolved, That all persons not legally en
titled to vote In this county on November
4, 1902, are hereby warned against violating
the provisions of the election law and all
law-abiding citizens are urged to give their
personal attention to this matter and to
assist the election officials and law officers
In protecting the purity of the ballot box
and securing a perfectly free and fair ex
pression of thn will of the lawful electors
of Douglas county. Be It further
Resolved, That the sheriff of this county
Is hereby requested to take official notice
of the reported conditions existing, partic
ularly In the country precincts of Douglas
county, and that he Is authorized and di
rected to appoint as many special deputies
as may be necessary to safeguard the elec
tion and to prevent a rape ot the ballot by
lawbreakers Imported from other states.
When Sheriff Power was shown tho reso
lution adopted by the commissioners he
said:
"I am glad they took this action and I
freely promise to do all in my power to pre
vent Illegal voting by members of either
party. I wish It distinctly understood that
If the managers of the republican party
know of any prospective attempt at illegal
voting by any democrat and will notify ms
I shall be glad to pay Immediate heed to It.
"By their resolution the commissioners
shoulder ths burden of paying an Indefinite
number of deputies, but let It be under
stood that my office Is not to become a
United States army recruiting station. I
shall appoint for each precinct only ths
number of men that reliable parties living
In those precincts will inform ms as likely
to bo required.
"These deputies will bs Instructed to ar
rest forthwith any and all persons found
attempting Illegal voting, regardless of
party."
The managers of ths Mercer campaign
are getting ready for the last day of regis
tration and have apparently decided that
the "scabs" employed at the Union Pacific
shops would look better living at other
places. Monday there was a considerable
exodus from the temporary boarding bouse
conducted by the company. Seventeen ot
the strike breakers were removed to the
State hotel and eleven of them to the Met
ropolitan hotel, while, it Is understood,
others went to other boarding houses In
the Third ward.
The strikers' pickets lost no time In
locating the breakers and In discovering
the names of those who removed for the
purpose of acquiring residence outside of
the Union Paclnc yards. Members of the
strikers' committee were yesterday
making arrangements to take photographs
of the strike breakers who have moved to
the hotels, for the purpose ot identifying
them on election day and thus preventing
them from repeating at the polls.
"The men seem to be making more money
loafing than they were working," said a
member of the strikers' picket torce."
They are keeping close around ths hotel
snd do not seem to be reporting at the
shops at all. We have spotted every one
of them and know that some of them
came from the east, while others may have
been residents of ths stats before tbey
cams to Omaha."
The question ot the legality of ths rest
denes which may be acquired b strike
breakers by reason of their living at the
Union Pacific shops has been ralijd. and It
Is argued that the boarding house opened
by ths company at the (hops Is not such a
place as may be legally termed a place ot
residence under the Nebraska atatuts. So
far as tha married men residing at ths
shops ara concerned It Is certain that they
could not acquire susa residence, as Us

statute Strictly provides that where a man
has place of business In one place, and
his family resides in another the place
where his family resides shall be his legal
place ot residence.' As to the single men
the question Is hot so well settled, but the,
men who work In the shops and reside In
the same place must have come with the In
tention of making this their permanent
place of residence,' something which seems
Impossible In the light of the fact that the
boarding house was opened by the company
as an expedient to avoid trouble with the
pickets of the strikers, and that the men
themselves have little or no voice in say
ing how long or under what circumstances
tbey will reside there, and that their re
moval depends not so much upon them
selves as upon the will of the railroad

BURT HAS NOTHING TO SAY
Refuses to Discuss Report that Deuel is to
Succeed Dickinson.
DENVER MAN NOT CONSIDERED LIKELY
Some Who Are Familiar with ITnioa
Faelfla Affairs Expect to Bee Posi
tion of General Manacer
Abolished.
"I havs nothing whatever to say upon
that subject."
This was the answer of President Burt of
the Union Pacific when asked If William A.
Deuel, superintendent ot the Colorado
division of that road, was to be made gen
eral manager to succeed Edward Dickinson.
The report originated In ' Denver and
arouses little Interest here, as no one who
pretends to have any knowledge of these
affairs believes that Mr. Deuel will be ele
vated to this position. The rumor Is gen
erally discredited at Union Paclflo bead
quarters by those officials who will venturo
an opinion on the subject. Mr. Deuel Is a
popular man and regarded as a good rail
roader, but he Is not one of the Burt favor
ites and Is, on the other hand, distinctly
recognized as a Dickinson man, and it has
been generally conceded that no such man
will be asked to till the place vacated by
Mr. Dickinson.
The report which comes from Denver Is
to the effect that Deuel is slated for the
general management and that private ad
vices from Omaha state that this appoint
ment has been positively decided upon.
Mr. Burt read these words carefully when
the report was handed to him and then
passed the slip of paper back with the
remark already attributed to him. No
significance of any kind can be drawn from
the president's treatment of the matter, for
since the day that Mr. Dickinson's resigna
tion was first mooted, Mr. Burt has main
tained the same stolid, silent Indifference,
remarking. If condescending to speak at
all: "I have nothing whatever to say upon
the subject."
Remark Not Blarnlacaat.
It is not probable, therefore, that his
refusaLio deny or confirm this latest re
port, signifies anything either way. The
only semblance of significance which could
be gathered from the president's office
came from a remark dropped by his secre
tary, T. M. Orr, who said to a reporter
for The Bee:
"I don't think you need be concerned
over the possibility of advices being sent
abroad, for there really Is nothing to be
given out on this matter now."
The Deuel story Is believed to bave
been given circulation by frlenda ot Mr.
Deuel, who are anxious to see him get the
place, Just as friends of W. L. Park of
Cheyenne ars agitating his candidacy. It
would not be surprising if every important
city on the Union Pacific had Its candidate.
J. O. BrlnkerhoS of Kansas City, who
holds the same position on the Kansas
division as do Deuel and Park on the Colo
rado and Wyoming, has been spoken ot In
connection with the office, and yet thers
Is no evidence that be Is In line for it.
Ths most popular theory la Omaha re
garding this matter Is that Mr. Dickinson's
place will not be filled for soms time. It
is thought that a desirable man could not
be Induced to step Into the c3ce now dur
ing the pendency of this strike, which
naturally has a tendency to complicate the
functions ot the general manager.
Office May Be Abolished.
The fact that the province of this official

nectlon with this position, "Why call a man
general manager In this position, when the
departments are arranged as they ars?"
Then it Is pointed out that the traffic
affairs ars under the direction of one' man,
J. C. Stubbs; the financial matters entirely
divorced from the functions of the general
manager; likewise the legal department,
and, tn fact, everything, even down to the
engineering department, except the operat
ing of the road. Tha fact that President
Burt himself Is a skilled engineer has made
that department one of his favorites and
he Is In personal touch with all its affairs,
more so. It Is suggested, than with those
of any other department. In view of these
facts, therefore, there Is a very strong be
lief that when the new man is appointed It
will be as general superintendent and not
general manager.

key? We have It Roderick Dhu himself
never drank a finer whiskey than the
brand which bears his name. It comes
direct from old Glasgow and there's
music ot the bagpipes and a scent of ths
heather la every bottle. It Is superior to
old King William and the pries Is a trifle
less. Every trus Scotchman will appre
ciate that statement.
Roderick Dhu Is a genulns old spirit,
thoroughly matured In sherry wood and Is
a whisky of ths very highest class.
