oala Valedictory In Which They
gay "One People germed Dead
In the "hell."
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Nov. 1. (Special.) Since th
close of the campaign some Information
haa com out which throwa a new light on
Its conduct, especially with reference to
the populist end of the fusion combination,
The official organ of the party, published
here. In Its latest Issue, tells some of the
Inside history that la Interesting. If not
Important. It declares that at the close
of the Grand Island conventions, a Uttlo
knot of men who have long been fighters
In the ranks and none of whom ever held
office, got together and bad a heart-to
heart talk. The opinion of all was that
we hsd no chance of success this year
but we would keep up our organization and
make the best fight we could.
It goes on to say that a large number
of the old reform voters were dissatisfied
with tho fusion administration was well
known. Not that it was not honest and
economical, but because when we bad tho
power we failed to do all that might have
been done. The most of the dissatisfaction
waa with the railroad commission, and
those old workera who bad sacrificed so
much in their Until against the railroads
were very much displeased. That was the
report from every psrt of the state. Then
the taking of little fees and other per
quisites, besides the constitutional salarlea,
although sanctioned by the courts, had
taken th heart out of the workers. One
of those present remarked that he won
dered that w had such a convention and
aa much Interest aa we did have after all
these things. But nope of the little flock
proposed to give up. As far aa they were
concerned they would fight as long as they
had lite and breath.
Refer to Railroad Influence.
After the campaign had got well started
things began coming our way, continues
the article, and many republicans thought
that the fusion governor would make it
and the railroad candidate would be de
feated. Then the story was started that
the B. ft M. road was doing nothing to
elect Mickey that. In fact, that It
was aiding Thompson. Many of the best
posted men In the fusion party were led
to believe that the B. A M. really desired
the defeat of Mickey. It was so stated In
Omaha and Lincoln and all over the state.
Sunday before the election old populists
began to send in inquiries asking if it
were true and expressing the determina
tion to abandon the fight. A conaultation
was held and while it waa acknowledged
that the B. & M. had been generous in Its
offers of transportation, it had all beeu
courteously refused, and tb managers told
point blank that the candidates would
stand by the platform upon which tbey
were nominated. But this story waa told
in every town and village in the state
and the disappointed element. In the party
were ready to believe it. .
The article ;.ays the populiata in par
ticular are greatly disheartened by the
fusion failure thla year. They are trying
to put up good face In expressing a hope
that thlnga may atlll come their way and
that they propose to flght It out on prin
ciple, although without sight of the spoils.
Isaae Campaign Valedictory.
In this connection Chairman Weber and
Secretary Farrla have isaued a proclama
tion aa sort of campaign valedictory, the
moat pertinent sections of which read:
At the opening of this campaign every
thing waa against us and not even the most
sanguine of our party workers believed we
could win. But we went Into the fight
hoping at least to cut down the republican
majority of two years ago, which waa made
by Imported votes, free railroad transporta
tion and other republican methods.
We have been cramped for funds aa never
before. This retarded the work planned
by this committee very materially. Our
people seemed to be "dead In the shell"
politically. Many party leaders said there
was no use to try.
Later In the campaign the situation
looked more encouraging. It became evi
dent that the fusion ticket would make ma
terial gains In tho cities and towns where
the people began to realise what It meant
to their pocketbooks. We believed the
farmer would awake to this fact also and
that they would go to the polls and vote.
The eariy returns verified our Judgment
Htid Indicated a fusion victory scf conclusive
that at 10 o'clock election night the repub
lican state committee conceded the election
of the fusion state ticket. But when the
returns begar to come In from the country
districts It showed a relative loss and this
continued till the battle waa lost.
The populists are trying bard to keep
their people in line through repreaentatlon
that defeat la duo exclusively thla year to
th atay-at-home vote, but privately they
are saying what on of the leader aald this
week: "I'm afraid th Jig Is up. Nebraska
is a republican state. We are in the mi
nority and th new recruit do not attach
themselves to the minority party."

talloaa Trip Than That of
Prince Henry.
PARIS. Nov. 18. Depuly Deloncle haa
been Interviewed with regard to hi state
ment at the banquet of the Industrial. Com
mercial and Economical society Friday,
that he haa received Information that the
St. Louis Exposition commission had de
cided to Invite President Loubet to visit
America. He saya the matter was not In
tended to be made public yet. Two years
sgo he mentioned to the exposition officials
the possibility of a visit from President
Loubet. It wss a mere after-dinner re
mark to which he did not attach much Ira.
portance. He waa surprised, h says, when
he received Information from St. Louis that
the idea might materialize and that a
proposal to extend a tormal Invitation to
President Loubet to visit the exposition
was being seriously considered.
Why It I Possible.
"I attribute this action," M. Deloncle
continues, "to a warm and profound liking
on the part of Americana for France, es
pecially alnco tho ROcbambeau fetes. Th
Journey of Prince Henry of Prussia to tho
I'nlted States has also made many Amer
ican friends of France feel that if the Oer
man emperor thought proper to eend his
brother to the launching of a yacht. Presi
dent Loubet might not be Indifferent to
the Louisiana Purchase centenary.
"Ther are few eventa In tbe history of
Franc more glorious than the ceaslon of
Louisiana by Napoleon Bonaparte when ha
waa first consul. Tb St. Louis Exposition
commission doubtless believes that the best
way ot enowlng Afflcrlca'a gratltudo to
France would be to Invito the president of
the Third French republic to the centenary
celebration of this act of the first republic.
The Journey would be quite constitutional,
for precedents exist In the visits to Russia
of the late President Faure and of Presi
dent Loubet himself. It ha been aald that
King Edward may go to the St. Louis ex
position and It la probable that th king
of the Belgians will also pay the exposi
tion a visit. If President Loubet goes he
would certainly make a more triumphant
trip than did Prince Henry of Prussia."

to accommodate 1,000 applicants for post

Charles F. Joy of St. Louis, one of the
two republicans who represented that city,
will not have tb certificate of re-eleo-tlon.
Joy Is a member of the committee
on account In the present house and it
Is somewhat strange that Mr. Bull, chair
man of that committee, should also hav
been defeated and that the clerk. Tyler
Page, waa also an unsuccessful candidate,
losing In on of tb Maryland districts. It !
Is thought juit possible that Mr. Joy will
file a contest and If he doca there prom
ises to be some fanny development. For
instance, in one precinct polling about 600
votes, in which there la usually a dem
ocratlo majority of from fifty to 100, not
a single republican vote waa recorded al
though no less than three government em
ployes Journeyed all the way from Wash
ington to St. Louis for th only purpose of
voting for Mr. Joy. These ar only a
few of the many changea which will occur

Mistake of a Flasman.
A mistake or the flagman at th crossing
wa responsible tor the accident. Tbe
freight, which consisted ot forty-two cars,
with an engine at either end, broke in two
aa it neared Western avenuo. The front
part ot tbe train passed the crossing and
the flagman not noticing the remaining
portion of the train coming at full speed,
half a block away, pulled up the gates and
gave the algnal that the crossing waa clear.
The electric train, which had been waiting
for tbe train to pass, started to crosa the
tracks and was hit squarely tn tbe middle
by the last half of tbe freight train. Both
of th street car were overturned In the
ditch by the collision. Several of the pas
sengers noticed the danger In time to jump
before tbe accident happened, but the
greater portion were Jammed in the doors
of the cars unable to get out. When the
two trains came together the passengers
were thrown In every direction.

Some Loral Railroad Weald Kmalate
Fiaraple of Kansas City
Men.
A local railroad man who haa just re
turned ' from Kansas City la very much
Impressed with tb enterprise he finds
displayed by the Kansas City Railroad club.
Tbla is an organisation composed of rail
road men embracing a large membership.
But it has ceased to confine It effort to
the mere promotion of fraternal reiationa.
This I on of It chief objects, but It
haa undertaken to extend its influence
along even mor substantial lines. It ia
going to hav an official organ In th
Kansas City Oateway, the first number of
which will appear December 1. This ia
to be a monthly publication, "endorsed y
and published In tbe Interest ot tha Rail
road Club ot Kansaa City," and for the gen
rat promotion of Kansas Clty'a welfare.
Edwin L. Gates, formerly railroad reporter
on on of Kansaa City' daily papers, will
be general manager and J. D. Bnlvely busi
ness manager.
Early tn ita existence th Railroad Club
of Kaosas City aimed at th erection of
a bom of ita own. On of th first ob
jects of thla Journal will b to aid and
promote the movement for the erection of
a building for tb Railroad club. While
such a move might at lint aeeua Impracti
cable It haa already enlisted th Interest
and support of representative men, on of
whom I Arthur E. Btlllwell, president of
the Kanaaa City, Mexico A Orient railroad,
who haa mad th club a donation of 11,054
toward tb perfection of Ita plana. It ia
understood that other representative rail
road men will follow th xampl set by
Mr. Btlllwell. Th railroad men hav
pledged to aid th a.w paper In securing
patronage and th hop of getting th
building I enthusiastically entertained.
While the railroad men will be getting a
home Kansas City will be getting some
good boosting.
This spirit of enterprise has commended
itself to many of tbe progressiva railroad
mea of Omaha and there ta a strong da
sir among some that at leaat a railroad
men' club might be organized aad main
tained here, for whether it directed Its
energies along Huts identical wlta t)oe
adopted In Kansaa City It I admitted such
an organization could be maintained with
mutual profit to the railroad men and
Omaha.
PICKETS' WINTER QUARTERS
Comfortable Balding: at Twelfth and
Cass Streeta la Formally
Opened.
The Union Pacific atrlkera yesterday
opened tbclr picket line headquarters at
Twelfth and Casa atreeta by giving a big
dinner. A largo number ot strikers and
other organised labor men were preaent
and some speeebmaking waa Indulged in
by T. L. Wilaon, E. F. Kennedy. Mr.
Flsber, sent from tbe Baldwin locomotive
worka with tbe new engines, and John
Qulnn, associate editor ot the Western
Laborer.
The atrlkera are now prepared for the
winter's, siege. Th plckots, whose num
ber has been enlarged, will make this
their regular headquarters. The house
has been comfortably fitted up for that
purpose. The strikers are constantly ac
quiring new financial strength and feel
that their chances of winning from tb
Union Pacific are better now than ever.
Amusements.
At the Boyd.
"Liberty Belles" applies perhaps as well
as any other name that could be suggested
for the piece which waa glvon ita first
production in tbla city last evening at tha
Boyd theater and equally any other name
would be aa apt. Almost any old nam
would fit and none would be comprehen
sive. The piece is of th class now desig
nated gencrlcally as musical comedy am!
It is all of that. 'There is music and there
is comedy In abundance, and it I dispensed
fn a most pleasing manner. Aa la usual
In tha musical comedy there I no par
tlcular attempt at consequent plot, and la
this case more ao than ordinarily. A to
tbe music there Is nothing particularly
striking or pretentious, but It Is all bright
and ploasing and tbe lines are bright and
witty throughout.
Pretty girls and clever girls, most of
whom are both pretty and clever, and all
of whom slog well, form the predominant
element of the "Liberty Belles." Aa a
chorus the girls sing well and look be
wltchlngly pretty and several of them ap
pear to advantage in specialties.
Harry Gllfoil la an Important factor In
the fun-making and the general action of
the piece, and Is afforded opportunities for
his well known Imitations. Harry Linton
and John Gllroy are tbe comedians, and
contribute materially to the enjoyment ot
the audience. Augusta Glose, Katie Rooney
and Violet Dale each had several aongs
In which they earned hearty applauae and
the McCoy slater In a aong and dance
mad a decided hit.
The house waa as large as the theater
would accommodate and a number of women
stood throughout the performance In tho
aide alalea and at tbe foyer entrancea.
"Liberty Belles" will be repeated tonight.
At the Crelahton-Orplienm.
Quit tb largest crowd that ever at
tended a Orpheum matinee waa present
yesterday afternoon to greet the new bill,
and In the evening another jam waa
recorded. And th bill waa worthy tbe
patronage and applauae beatowed on It.
None that haa been offered ao tar this
aeaaoa contained mora of good thing. It
la a laughing bill throughout, although tb
merriment ia engendered by different meth
ods. First In merit among tha lot coma
Miss Lillian Burkbart and ber company In
a new skit, "Th Salt Cellar." This I on
of th best things this charming ctreaa
haa brought to us, clean, dainty, even de
licious in Ita conceit, and staged and acted
with consummate taste. It merely deals
with the first meal of a newly wedded
pair at home, shewing over what trivial
matter a quarrel may aria. In tb work,
lng out of tho thought lie th merit of th
sketch, and the moral 1 contained in th
epilogue so charmingly spoken by Miss
Burkhart. Sunday vaudeville patron do
not commonly take kindly to th "legit,"
but they war not only graeiou, but ex.
ceedlngly cordial to Mlaa Burkhart and her
assistant yesterday. For the children this
week' bill contain a decided novelty la
th way of Rleabona'a horse and dogs.
Th "good night" horse, who disrobe,
get Into bed and cver himself up I
only on of a company that doea many
novel and entertaining atunts, and ao
neatly aa to elicit much applause. On of
th Yankee Comedy Four, all of whom ar
clever comedian, ao cloaely resembles Bob
Fltzstmmon that, wer he to dlarard th
announced Imitation, might easily pasa for
tha lanky pugilist. Their act haa a moat
uproarious finish, and waa well received.
Crawford and Stanley divide th aong and
danc work on original llnea. Stanley
dances grotesquely and well, while Craw
ford plays the piano with head, handa and
feet, and sings some wall known ditties
in a good vole. O'Brien and Buckley, well
known In Omaha, furnish much fun by their
witty dialogue. Interspersed with good In
strumental mualo. Ryan and Nadln ar a
good pair of comedian acrobats, and
Mitchell and Lev round out a comedy bill
of a sort seldom seen la vaudeville.
