In a llttla hall at Sixteenth and Locust
atreeu last night and. under tha auspices
of the Frank K. Moorea Fifth Ward repub
lican club, holding one of tha moat enthual
aatlc meetings of tha preaent campaign.
It aeemed from tha noli and remarks made
by thoaa In attendance that nearly arery
man preaent was heartilr la favor of Frank
E. Moorea for a third term mayor. Na
opportunity waa loat to chear ar applaud
the remarka of tha mayor and thoaa con
cerning him made by ethar men. Tha only
pint in the crowd that aeemed lahar
monloua and out of place waa tha personal
ity of Councilman 1. 8. Haacall, who had
projeoted himself far from tha Flrat ward.
When Judge Haacall aaw fit to make lUt.

hie administration and upon City Engineer

had became personal they llstaaed With
loud guffaws, and applauded aa they and
City Engineer Andrew Roaewater flung em
barrassing question at the Flrat ward
councilman.
CI a a Gea Hazard.
Tha club went oa record aa endorsing
Frank E. Moores for mayor, Bryce Crawford
for councilman and tha passage of tha
Roaewater franchise ordinance by tha coun
cil. At the beginning of the meeting W. I.
Klerstead explained that the club had been
organized soma time ago and that he had
been elected prealdent. Two hundred and
twenty names hare been signed to the fol
lowing declaration, a acore of new member
taking allegiance last night:
We. the undersla-ned reDUblloan voters of
the Fifth ward, do hereby agree to support
Hon. Frank E. Moores for mayor at tha
coming primarle. for the reason that ha
has made a good, conscientious mayor In
the punt and we know what to expeot In
the future. Having no other business to
attend he has given the city his undivided
time, something no previous mayor has
ever done.
Kind-hearted and generous to tha poor,
always exerting himself In their behalf;
tempering the juatlca to hla office with
reasonable mercy, ha baa enforced tha
lew as atrictly aa consistent with good
government. A friend of the laborer, even
championing their cause, he la In fact the
people's mayor, vetoelngr every measure
not In the Interest of us all.
v M7r Mates realties.
Mayor Moorea' speech bristled with Im
promptu humor that pleased his audience
greatly. Aa at a recent First ward meet
ing, he outlined the platform on which he
stands local self government, municipal
ownership of publlo utilities and equal tax
ation of the railroads and other property.
Concerning aome of the attacks made upea
him the mayor eald:
"Ton remember well the many eo-ealled
'well defined' rumors that .were In circula
tion about three years ago concerning cer
tain practices ot which I was alleged to
have been guilty. It waa declared openly
that , I waa making a certain disreputable
class of our population pay tribute, which
I and several others divided among our
selves. There - were other "holdups' In
which X waa the chief actor, according to
these rumors. To he brief, I was cleared
f all these charges about aa thoroughly
aa tha tongue of slander can ' ever be
cleansed by a special grand Jury, convened
far tha purpose ot Investigating my record,
ad out of that mountain ot "well defined
rumors not even one real live mouse
emerged.
"Since the preaent Fire and Police board
was placed la control by Former Governor
Savage eight months ago you may be sure
that nothing weuld have given W. J.
Broatch mare delight than to fix upon me
proof of aome of the assertlona he circu
lated .about me. And there haa been no
effort spared. A detective, a woman, waa
brought out from Chicago last summer to
try to dig up evidence to prove my cor
ruption. Having aubslsted previously by
living the life of an immoral woman, ahe
entered a local bouse ot ill tame and when
the time waa ripe made Inquiries from the
mistress and the others how much they
had paid me to protect them. Each one
declared that they never had paid me a
penny. Other Inquiries that she made at
ether plaoaa of like repute met with the
earn answer, and the money they spent oa
her was wasted.

"Again, within the last eight month a, a
male detective waa brought from Chicago
te eeoura evidence te prove that I had been
In league with, the gamblers. He professed
to ha what la known as a 'sporting man.'
and .getting la with men ot that kind In
Omaha told them that ha wished to buy
paraphernalia and open a gambling house
here. He ooBvereed long and diligently
and at last, quit by aocldent, asked how
much money had te he paid ta the mayor
every month. The men with whom he had
been talking replied' that no money waa
ever paid to tha mayor, and that so far aa
he knew aa attempt had ever been made to
collect any. I think thla la tha first that
the publlo haa heard of these detectives.
The result at their work cannot have de
lighted my enemies, or you would have
heard all about It long before this.

The Second Ward Republican elnb meet
ing Thursday evening was productive of
the first clash In that district between the
Moores and Bingham forces for the en
dorsement of their respective candidates
for the mayorallty fight. During the even
ing supporters of W. W. Bingham, who
has expressed himself as desirous of secur
ing the endorsement of the ward, that he
may get Into the ring with the other can
didates for the chief executlveshlp of the
city, attempted to have the club endorse
him. Moorea adherents were there In
greater, numbers and prevented such action
being taken. The attempt resulted In
Bingham addressing the meeting and stat
ing, after he had appreciated the opposi
tion which would be made against him,
that such an endorsement would be to his
detriment and would, besides, be too early
for such action. His words sufficed to calm
the movement In his behalf and the Moores
supporters contented 'themselves tn the
satisfaction that Bingham's boom for the
time being, and until April ft, when the
next meeting will be held, is held in
abeyance.
During the evening speeches were made
by Philip Stein, who aspires to the nomina
tion of councilman; Councilman Fred Hoye,
who is seeking renomlnstlon; W. W. Bing
ham; Fred Brunlng, candidate for tax com
missioner; County Commissioner A. C.
Hart, Mike Lee and Chairman Behm. The
new primary election law waa discussed
liberally during the meeting. 1

Quite a little tipple stirred tn the Seventh
Ward Republican club last evening when
It was announced that the club waa slightly
tn debt, but that the 1 25 that is owing to
the elnb from Dave Mercer from last fall's
campaign waa more than sufficient to clear
up all Indebtedness.
Meanwhile It waa decided that a commit
tee composed of John Steele, H. E. Palmer,
John Grant, A. H. Burnett, B. F. Thomas
and Lee Tates be named te collect a fund
for the club ta be used for the leasing of
the store building at Park and Woolworth
evenuea aa a future meeting place for the
club. After the routine of the meeting
was gene through with the various candl
dates for nomination for the city election
were called upon to apeak before the gath
eiing.
Theodore Olson stated that he was a
candidate for the nomination for city
comptroller and that he felt that if he
waa nominated no one would have any
causa to regret the action that they had
taken, as be would do the best that he
could and that he believes that he under

offloe.
M. J. Greevy announced his candidacy
for the nomination for city ' tax commis

deputy aa a guarantee of his familiarity
with the routine of the position,
For the position of councilman from the

Talk af Invest Ina.
"South Omaha's population Is Increasing
rapidly," said a well known real eatate
agent yesterday afternoon. "Wo have
more Inquiries for houses now thaa we ever
had before at thie time of the year." Con
tlnutng the conversation, the real eatate
dealer asserted that there was a scarcity
ot steam-heated flats In the city and also
a dearth .of tmall cottages with modern
conveniences.
Inquiry at the real estate offices showed
that very few houses In the city are for
rent and that the statements made are
true. There Is a demand for flats and for
cottages. Newcomers are hunting tor
houses In all parts of the city and appear
to be willing to take anything with a roof
over it. Of course modern conveniences
are desired, but when these cannot be had
those eeeklng houses are willing to take al
most anything. While the building has
been slow so far this year. It is thought that
those who have money to Invest will put
up houses this spring to rent In order to
assist In supplying the demand for homes.
Of late quite a number of men employed at
the packing houses who have for .years re
sided in Omaha are'ngurlng on either build

avoid the inconvenience of traveling back

Kaat Sida Improvements.
At a recent meeting ot the Bast Side Im

an effort should be made to open Twenti
eth street through Syndicate park. The
road Is graded and the only drawback to
the opening of thla Toad way 1 ths fact
that the city la unable at the present time
to locate the electric lights required and td
furnish the police protection requested.
What the club want Is to have the city
make some arrangement with ' the land
company for th opening ot the gate to
permit vehicle to pas over th roadway
already constructed. As long as the city
has no money on hand 'to appropriate for
this purpose It looks a It It Was up to the
club to provide the funds, in case the
members want the atreet opened.'-
All Mixed Up.
Some aay that there will be an election
and others say . that the revised charter
bill will pass, and that then there will, not
be any election. In order to guard
against accidents or mistakes the mayor
has issued a proclamation according to
law. Never In the history of 8outh Omaha
were the politicians so much at - sea as at
the present time. None of the leader
seem to know where all stand, as so much
depends upon ths legislature. Testerday
the republican city council committee ' of
fered the office of tax commissioner t Pat
rick Trelnor. Mr. Tralnor declined. He
aid he had all the business he could at
tend to Just now and felt that he could not
carry more burdens. It is understood that
in order to fill out the ticket the office will
be tendered to Joaeph McCaffrey. The ctty
central committee will meet at noon today
to fill vacancies. In' order that the proper
filings may be made on time.
Pork Butcher Wilt Arbitrate.
The pork butchers who went out on a
strike at Swift' Thursday agreed to meet
the managers of the concern and arbitrate
the matter. Probably a meeting will be
held today. Pending the meeting the
butchera will continue work. No request

the butchers seem to want I a etriotly

Lavcrty Waata Depositions,
A number of subpoenas have been served
upon business men tn the city to appear
before Justice Caldwell at 10 o'clock to
day to give depositions in the Laverty-

waa reported on ths streets and In the
newspapers that Miller, prealdent of the
Board of Education, had stated that he
proposed to commence impeachment pro
ceeding against Laverty. Then Laverty
rushed Into court and secured a restraining
