At the beglnnlDg of the meeting, which

that the lists of judges and clerks sub

division ss possible among the candidates.
The executive committee conferred fifteen
minutes, and then Mr. Hurhank, who Is a
member, reported back tbat all lists from
candidates hsd been considered and that a
alate ha 4 been made tbat included judges

CHILDREN. TO SEE PRESIDENT
Board of Governors of Ak-Sar-I?en
P1ST .".nother Feature of tlie
'' Executive's Visit.
According to the plan of the board of gov
ernors of tBe'Kplghts of Ak-Sar-liei'. ns
outlined, last night, Omaha school children
are to be given an especial opportunity to
see President Roosevelt en the occasion of
his visit to tho city this month, and If
he consents, will be given a chance to bear
him make a trlof speech.
At the meeting; of the board last night it
was declded'to aak the Board M Education
to co-operate In the matter and If possible
'. have all of tho children In the schcfbls as
semble pn the carnival grounds at Eigh
teen: and Douglas streets under the guard
of the High School Cadets la full marching
order. .The president Is expected to arrive
t 6:J0 In the afternoon and aa soon as pos
sible after that hour he will be brought to
' the corner of Eighteenth and, Douglas
atreets, where he may speak briefly, and
from that point continue hi drive over
the city.
The board of governors decided also to
withdraw season reserved scats for the imi.
sical festival from sale after April 15, and
to hold all seats remaining unsold at that
time for single admissions, to be sold each
day, at a much higher prlco proportion
ately than that asked for the season tick
ets. The price of single admissions haa
not been determined at thla time and will
probably not be fixed until after the seaBon
tickets are withdrawn from the market.

"This Is the most important litigation

In," said Mr. Mcintosh, "and I shall urge
the mayor and council to employ special

BROATCH HAS MISSIONARIES
fiarley, ftoaa and Mercer Spreading
Broatchlam Aanoaar
Firemen.
Of course the object of the Omaha Fir
and Police commission Is to keep the police
and fire departments out of politics. To
the end that the members of these depart
ments shall be protected from the contami
nation of men who would corrupt their po
litical morals, or who would undertake to
Influence them In the exercise of their
rlghta as freemen. Mr. Broatch has ap
pointed a committee of disinterested cltl
trns, whose duty It seems to be to visit the
engine houses and warn the firemen of the
dangers tbat surround them In a life of
politics.
This philanthropic work Is at present In
charge of Mr. W. F. Gurley, Mr. Charles A.
Ooss and Mr. David H. Mercer. These gen
tlemen have been eedulous In pursuit of
their object, the near approach of the pri
maries making It essential that all the fire
men be placed on their guard and that every
nerdrd safeguard be thrown eround them
to prevent the canker of politics from se
curing a hold on the fire department. Mr.
Mercer ' and Mr. Gurley have long been
known in Omaha as earnest champions of
purity In politics and other avenues of life.
Mr. Broatch, too, Is noted for his unremit
ting efforts to stamp out corruption, par
ticularly in the fire and, police departments
and among the saloon men of Omaha, who
are known to be peculiarly susceptible.

Work Today.
v A largely attended meeting of the paint
ers' union was held In Washington hall
Tuesday evening for the purpose of taking
formal action on the demand which was
made some time ago by the union upon the
employers, and which was to have been
granted several days ago. It was an
nounced to the members of the union that
the employers had signed an agreement
promising to grant the desired wages of
40 cents an hour, and a strike, which was
to have been declared should the Increase
not have been furthcoming, was declared
off.
For the last few months the painters
have received 37 cents per hour.
Hod Carrier tay Oat.
After being In session for over three
hours Tuesday night, tho members of the
hod carriers' union look formal action on
the demand of the employers that they ac
cept the basis of comproimse proposed by
them two weeks ago, in which they offered
to grant the desired Increase In wages de
manded In case the new scale should be
come effective May 1, and decided that the
strike sheuld continue.
The session was productive of consider
able discussion, which during the later part
of the meeting grew to a white heat. Dur
ing the meeting a vote was taken upon the
proposition whether the union should ac
cede to the compromise of the employers
or remain out. The vote resulted In forty,
six to turn down the proposition of the
employers, to fifteen In favor of going to
work. The ballot was the cause of tho
dissension In the meeting. When Anally
the session was adjourned the fifteen affirm
ative voters had experienced a change of
mind and the unanimous vote of 'the union
was cast to stand true to tho original de
mands and not return to work.
The employers stated that unless the
union accept the terms by today the prom
ise of the increase will be withdrawn. As
a consequence a delegation from the hod
carriers' and bricklayers' unions will con
fer with the contractors this afternoon to
determine, if possible, whether there 1 not
some means that may be employed which
will result In the settlement of the strike,
which has been on since March 19.

"What South Omaha needs more than It
does almost anything else Is the passage
of a law whereby the city will be enabled
to take up Its outstanding obligations and
thus reduce the rate of Interest now being
paid." This was said by a business man
who makes a practice of ' buying city war
rants for the money that accrues from the
Interest. 1
"South Omaha," he said, "cculd save thou
sands of dollars yearly by having a charter
which wduld permit the taking up of the
overlap and the Betting aside of a sufficient
sum for the repair of tne paved Btreets.
As It is now the paved Btreets are In a
deplorable condition and city officials say
that there Is no money on hand to make
Improvements." It Is a fact that all of the
guarantees made by paving companies ex
pired aome tiruo,ago and that now tho city
Is compelled to do Its own repairing.
Twenty-fourth street Is In bad shape and
property owners on the street say that the
only thing to do Is to lay another pave
mentand lay It right. Repairs made
yearly at a cost of $1,600 do not last and
the street now is really a disgrace. Along
L street the pavement la In bad shape, and
so it Is on other paved streets. A general
overhauling of the paved Btreets Is needed,
but this cannot be done unless money Is
provided. The street .repair fund la not
sufficient to take care of the paved streets
and pay proper attention to the onea not
paved. It has been suggested that In case
the proposed charter does not pass that a
Bpeclal election be held for the voting cf
bonds for tfic purpose of raising money for
the taking up of the overlap and the neces
sary street repairs. Should this be done
the expense of a Bpeclal election now would
be no more than the' Interest on outstand
ing warrants, and at the commencement
of the next fiscal year the city could atart
In with practically no debts aside from tho
regular bonded indebtedness.
Increased Enrollment.
The rapid Increase In the enrollment of
pupils at the public schools calls for more
room In every ward In the city. Within a
week or two the four rooms at Lowell
school will be completed, and It may be
that the board may; see fit to start the
rooms by the appointment of four additional
teachers. As the term Is so near Its close
this Is hardly deemed necessary, but still
It m?: be done.
Superintendent McLean is authority for
the statement that considerable, more school
room will have to be provided by the time
the schools open In the fall. If the board
has any Intention of taking care of the
children of school age.

Tho making of affidavits by non-registered
voters and certificates of removal entitling
men who have moved to other wards to
participate in the primary elections brought
more people to the city clerk's offlce than
ot any time since the work began flva
days ago. It ended for the democrats Mon
day night and for the republicans at 6
o clock last evening.
No man not properly registered after
that hour can cast a vote at the primaries
with any party. He Flmply la out of the
exercise of suffrage, party or ctherwisa,
until election day, for which he may qual
tfy by attending to the registration pro
cess the Saturday preceding. But so far
as choosing the men who will compose the
nominating convention goes, he will have
no voice.
The republicans are taking a far greater
interest In the municipal campaign than the
democrats. At 10:30 Monday night, when the
doors of the city clerk's offlce were closed
against the democrats, In order to comply
with the new Gilbert primary law, but
forty-seven democrats had obtained af
fidavits and thirty-two certificates of re
moval. The republicans at noon yesterday
had registered 208 men and secured 138
certificates of removal. Because the dem
ocratic primaries come one day in advance
of those of the republicans the latter still
had the right to qualify yesterday, in order
to finish It ten days before the election.
Yesterday the names of the democrats
were being prepared for the seven-day
publication In the official papers demanded
by the new law.
According to W. I. Klerstead, president
of the Frank E. Moores Fifth Ward Repub
lican club, the friends of the mayor have
registered three men to everyone brought
In by tho opposition. "It looks as though
It Is all our way," commented Klerstead,
as he stood yesterday and watched the
surging crowd before the long desk In the
city clerk's office. "Another thing that Is
going to strengthen us with the people is
the Injunction forbidding the council pass
ing the Rosewater electric franchise ordi
nance. The people want to have this ques
tion submitted snd will be sore when they
find this permanent restraining order has
been Issued upon the showing made by tho
electric light company."
