CLACKELTM FlXrS DATtS FOR CWN SHOW Cownty, C'onarreaaleiaul ni4 Jadleial Committees Hold Meetings ator day Preliminary to ras fos tho Fall riertloas. Republican political machinery was bttpy In Omaha yesterday afternoon, the county committee, congressional committee and Ju dicial committee each holding a mating. The genera! reault waa that t?ie county committee failed to adopt Tom Blackburn'a plan for Joint primaries and adjourned without transacting any business who ever. The Congressional committee decided to hold ita own primaries on September i, "without the old or consent of. any county central committee on earth," In the worda of the chnlrman. whjle th Judicial com mittee decided to merge its primaries with the congressional primaries as far as poa Slble. ' The meeting of the county committee wns held on the seventh floor of The Bee build ing, sixty-five members bo.lng present or represented by proxy. Chairman Cowell outlined the history of the negotiations for A Joint primary, carried on at the Instance of Chairman Blackburn of the congrea sional committee and read the tentative agr'Tement which baa been printed in; full In The Bee. He urged th adoption of the plan as a move that would help to "do away with thla infernal factionalism," save the time of th people and money for th candidate. Substitute Motion Presented. H. M. Waring moved that the plan for Joint primaries be accepted, but Victor Rosewater preaented a aubatitute motion, saying it would not sllay factionalism ta mix the county and congressional con tests.. He said he did not understand why separate primaries should be held In Doug Is county for the congressional conven tion wl)l thy were not to be held in the other countle of the district. Provided Chairman Blackburn wished another Doug la county primary, however, ' Mr.. Rose water waa willing he should have one con ducted by the county committee and was willing to give him th apportionment he desired. Victor Roeowater had at th outset asked Chairman Cowell whether or not the con greaslonal conviitlon had been called and Mr. Cowell reaponded In tho negative. Chairman Blackburn misled Chairman Cowell by sitting silent when thl ques tion and answer were made, but a half hour later, after th committee was about to adjourn without approving th joint plan he arose and declared that the call for a congressional convention had been Issued, although It ha - not been "pub lished," "aa there Is no law requiring its publication," he said, "mors than twenty days prior to the primary." .He thus al lowed the Impression to prevail during the entire meeting that the congressional con vention had not been called and then ex posed his motive by announcing that it had been called. . - Provisions of Resolution. . The resolution otYerad by Mr. Rosewater, and which went over to the next meeting for a vote, provides for a primary election of Douglas county votsrs Friday, October 14. to nominate a county and legislative ticket, and th choosing of one member of th county committee for each of th even numbered voting district in the cities of Omaha and South Omaha by the voters of ach dlatrtct respectively. Candidate for nomination and for ' jammtttoemen are re quired to file their lames under the. Jef. feris rule, the voting district being tha am a at the last primary. The resolu tion arranges for the nomination of. one candidate for tenator from outside tho city of .Omaha and one candidate each for the legislature from 3outh Omaha and the country, each county comm'ssionerahlp dis trict to nominate Its own candidates.. , After thl resolution was submitted II. M. Waring raised th question cf tho right of the committee to issue such a call. It wa brought out that to have adopted it yes terday would define the boundaries of tho voting dlxtrloU without a five day' notice of the meeting of the commlttpc, aa speci fied In the primary election law. Mr. Roae water thought thla provlfrton of the stat utes directory, rather that mandatory, snd said that it would e.pply to the plun for Joint prlmarlea as well ns to thatfor county primaries. There was no nuestlon that fhe committeemen had not been Sotlfled five days In advance for the meeting. Chair man Blackburn and J. H. V&nDusen gave their opinion that five days' notice must be given to have a legal call. When Blackburn had thus spiked his own scheme J. Fred Bchm thereupon moved an adjournment for a week. Thla wnsamended by Mr. Rorewater to an adjournment sub ject to call by the chairman, with full notice subsequent to the issue of a call for a congressional convention. Chairman Blackburn at this point gave cut the Information that the call had bpen Issued, though his committee had arranged to meet during the afternoon to change the date If the county committee wanted an other date. The motion for adjournment then carried. t onarcaaional I omnlttae. At the subsequent moetlng of the con gresnional committee It waa decided, so Mr. Blackburn said, to hold ladopend'mt congressional primaries ia all thre coun ties of the district. Douglas, Harpy and Washington, on September J, ith a con vention in Ornsha fteptember R, The only part of the call which Mr. Blackburn !i;id formulated was that fixing the apportion ment as follows: The roj reseutatlon shall ba aa follows: in said convention Wafthtneton county 17 dclrtTf.

The Judicial committee' met at the same time the congressional committee did and In the same cfTWa those of Bronte Burnett, In the Taxton building. Judge Bertlett resigned aa chairman, owing to hla appointment to th bench, snd A. H, Burnetfwas elected chairmen in hla place. This meeting; also waa secret and Infor mation aa to the proceedings were given out by Becretary H. At Waring. He said the full committee or proxies were present, s.lth the exception of F. P. Klrksndall and John C. Wharton. According to Mr. Wr Ing, the Judicial committee d"ddd to ?lo!d prlmarlea at the anme tlm and rlace and with the same Judge and clerks tht serve in the congressional prlmarlea, and contemplatea using th asms delegate, for the convention later In the afternoon of September 6. One candidate for th dia trlct bench has to be nominated, as the vacancy caused by the realgnatlon of United Btatea Diatrlct Attorney Irving A. Baxter and filled by Judge Bartlett by appointment must have an incumbent fleeted to it thla fall. Judge Bartlett and Howard Kennedy, Jr., are aspirants. Arrangements for the Judicial primaries and convention were, not completed and no call was formulated or Issued. It being decided to meet again next Saturday to attend to these details. H. C. Murphy, J. W. McDonald, and H. M. Waring were ap pointed a special committee to confer with the subcommittee .of the congressional committee as to details and arrangements. No action could have been taken by the Judicial committee anyway, as the requisite five days' notice of meeting ha not been given. It waa agreed, however, to tax the candidates $150 each for filing fees and to have them submit their names) to the voters for preference by ward majorities. ' 'Alt.-1 (Continued from First Page.) eight hours after work was resumed, and to avoid any question that, might arise the following notice was handed to Mr. Don- nellv at the ptrwte nf th fin f..n'. ' Dear Sir: In accordance with the terrrusl ot our contract we tender Bamuel A. Mo Lenn. Jr., as our arbitrator. Friday mornlnir the men were ordered back to work. Within one. hour they were ordered out again at all packing centera, from New Tork to Fort Worth, Tex., the packers not being given an average of fifteen minutes' operation to demonstrate their Intention to carry out the agreement fairly. ... A tonference yesterday and continuance today resulted in the packers Insisting that the union live up to the narreement aa Blgned and ratified by both aldea, and their refuaal to consider a suairestion on the part of Mr. Donnellr that the old agreement be cancelled and a new agree ment more favorable to the men out on strike ba accepted In its place. ' t'nlon Lenders Issue Statement.' A committee of union Jeaders issued the following statement after the conference today with the packers had resulted in a disagreement: '" "To the Public!'

A feelliitf that the situation in the stock yards was one that would caune a walkout of all- employes, and to prevent this a conference waa secured and an agreement waa reached which, we believe, would have settled the strike if lived up to by the packers. When representatives of the strikers called upon the packers to arrange for" the return of the men they were told to have all '"employes report for work.
