There are thousands of parcels of land
In the county of Douglas to which
the title Is clouded, and there are hundreds
of pieces of real estate whose holders will
lose ' ownership unless they repair their
neglect end look after their Interests In
the suit brought under the scavenger law.
Out of 34,000 and more purcela of land
affected by the action Jointly begun by the
city and county to recover alleged delin
quent, taxes, fiver 23.000 have been left un
defended by the owners. The laBt day for
flling answers was Thursday, and If the
matter goes by default decrees ordering the
sale of the whole of this vast number of
pieces of property may be entered by the
district court.
. Deeds under such a sale become absolute
after two years. If the property Is not re
deemed before thiU time. Many persons
are Ignorant, of the proceedings, or, know.
Ing them, have neglected to protect their
Interests. As a result, their real estate will
be sold, and through failure to look after
it then they ultimately will lose their prop
erty. , Many of those who have neglected to de
n si i sj; ) n i
fend their Interests In this manger are poor
people who own their homes. To protect
such people as far as possible, John Q.
Telser has Hied sn answer to the suit In
which hs embraces a client and all others
who have r.ot yet answered and who may
desire te ratify his act. Other attorneys
have attacked tho validity of the whole
scavenger law, and should It be declared
void, titles will be cleared.
Heart c on Klfteeath.
September 15 has been set for ths hear
ing of the esse by the law under which It
wss Instituted. The act slso declares this
matter shall have precedence over all other
court business. All answers that sre Iden
tical will b bunched and tried as one
Issue, but the number of property owners
setting up defenses that will require on In
dividual hearing Is enormous, and the court
will be so overburdened with tax litigation
that other legal business Is apt to be seri
ously hampered for a long time.
v"I think st a low estimate It 1H take
firee Judges four months to dispose of ths
scavenger tax case," said Attorney Henry
XV. Pcnnock, who represents several hun
dred property owners. "To get rid of It in
that time they will have to work long
hours and six days a week. That Ic, of
course. If the validity of the law Is sus
tained. In the latter event hundreds of

the fact that their property was In Jeo
pardy will lose their homes. They will not
pay any attention to the sale and In two
years the deed given by the county treas
urer will become absolute snd they will
be ousted. Of course thousands of prop
erty owners who have let the esse go by
default will bid It In when It Is put on the
block, but there will be hundreds who will
negVct to do this.
"Most people do not know It, but the law
provides that delinquent taxes Involved In
this huge suit can be -paid and the cloud
to a title removed by simply going to the
office of the county treasurer and banding
him the amount due, together with . the
costs of the suit, which up to the present
are nominal."
Nearly All Titles Clouded. .
"The title to every piece of property em.
braced In this suit Is clouded," declared
John O. Yeiser, "except wherein a release
has been secured through a decree of the
court or the payment of the taxes elulmed
to be delinquent. I thtak . the law Is de
fective, but ff the count holds otherwise,
thousands of dollars' worth of property
will be lost by people who own real estate,
but have paid no heed to the esse. While
I hsve entered a general appearance for
the thousands who' have not answered,
they will have to) ratify that by making an
Individual arncafanoe in court to protect
their Interests, otherwise my act will be
of no avail to them." .'..It
One thousand two hundred 'answers were
filed Thursday. Of tlie property Involved
In- the suit, tits city possesses title to about
1.200 tracts, and this will be eliminated st
the trial. In selling the property the law
provides tro county treasure shall award
tt to the highest bidder. He will have to
read the-'.etatled description of each sep
arate parcel of land put .on ths block be.
fore inviting offers from prospective pur
chasers.. "This In Itself is an r enormous
task and experts who have figured on ths
matter are f the opinion thnt it will tnke
several months' steady selling to diapose
of the condemned property. ,

HOME FROMTHE ENCAMPMENT
Former Adjutant General Howe He-
tarns, Gratified Over Good Time
In Boston.
Former Adjutant General Mart Howe of
the Nebraska Grand Army of the Republic
was In the city on his return from the na
llonAl encampment at Boston. . He said:
'lhe national encampment was ths larg
est . I ever attended and we were treated
with unbounded hospitality by the New
England people. The parade waa tho big.
gest of any national encampment In re
cent years, snd I doubt whether tt ever
will ngsln be equalled. Not many western
men wers there. There was very little
contest for the next meeting of the na
tional encampment. Denver had a clean
walkaway for the location. ' The old
trouble about rates to Denver that pre
vailed throe years ago has been amicably
settled, and I think we can calculate on a
one cent rate for the Denver encampment
In 1905. It Is probable the national en
campment for 1006 will be held in Chatta
nooga, near the old Army of the Cumber
land and Tennessee battle fields." '

"I have ne use for Frank Moores," ex.
claimed a prominent antl-machlne politic
Ian, who affiliates with the Fontanelle club,
"but I can't stomach the Inter-meddUng of

sm heartily disgusted with Dsve Mercer,
who doee-n't claim to live here any longer,
and note Is working night and day to nomi
nate his own successor. What difference
it makes to him who represents this dis
trict I cannot see, unless It Is that he wants
Gurley because Gurley will help him to
work out some of the schemes hs has on
hand as a lobbyist.
"And here is George Sabine, a political
barnacle who figured as a lobbyist at
Lincoln for years and finally landed - at
Washington in a soft Job, through ths In
fluencs of our Dave. He comes to Omaha
every other yesr for.a month or two. For
the past two weeks he has been making
a house-to-house camaa for Gurley In the
Seventh ward.
"The Bee hit the . nail on the head
squarely In that piece about the man that
makes Milwaukee famous, t was st the
Ak-8ar-Ben den when hamade that speech.
It was simply scandalous for a superin
tendent of ths public schools of a great
city to Indulge in such tslk. Pear so else
came to Omaha to Instruct us how to vote,
snd I notice his footprints In several of
the wards.' I am told he got Fred Btnben
dorf to go On ths Gurley ticket In the
First ward and has put In his oar In the
upper wards with a number of men who
used to be In touch with hint when he lived
here." . ' . .
For quite a number of years I. R. An

"Whst mskee you . think so?" asked
Andrews.
"Why, I see you ars on ths Kennedy

"Yes, I am," retorted Andrews,, "snd I
don't care who knows It. I support whom

Thursday afternoon one .of the republi
can candidate for congress was bantered
by Walter Molse with a bet of 50 that
Gurley would carry the city.
"I thought you were a democrat," said
the surprised candidate. "I did not know
you were taking any Interest In our fight."
"But I am taking an Interest.V exclaimed
Molse, "and I am taking a good deal of
Interests I sm taking Interest enough to
stake my money on Gurley."
"I see," said the congressional candidate,
"that I sm up sgalnst your brewesy snd
your saloons. Why are you so much Inter
ested In Gurley?"
"Well," replied Molse, "that Is my own
business. Gurley is. my friend, snd that
Isn't all. He has very Influential hackers
tbat are my friends. Anyhow, I am willing
to stake my money on him as a winner." I
Among the republicans out In ths coun
try precincts who sre pronounced against
Gurley are Carson Rohwor and h,ls numer
ous friends and relatives. Four years sgo
Rohwer was a candidate for tho legisla
ture and was counted out by thirteen
votes, although the poll books In one of thu
wards gave him twenty more votes than
were credited to him.
"You can bet that Rohwer s not for Gur
ley, aid neither are the republican Oermann
of McArdle precinct, and If Gurley Is nomi
nated hs will hear something drop in sev
eral other country precincts," said a German-American
republican . from McArdU.
"Don't you remember how Gurley fought
the legislative ticket four years sgo and
then went 'down to Lincoln end appeared
there on behalf of the four democrats from '
Douglss county? If I remernber right, he j
was voted S500 out of ths state treasury for
making the fight to keep thess democrats t
In their sests. i
"I ean't understand why Senator Mills rd
should be v working so hsrd for Gurley)
when he must know that If Gurley had his i
way two years sgo there would have been j
two democrats, or one democrat snd ons ;
populist probably Bryan and Allen In '
place of Millard and Dietrich In the United j
States senate. Pcrhapa Senator Millsrd
does not know that two more democrats In
the house would hsve given the fuslonlsts
the legislature." -
At ths entrance of ths New York Life
building yesterday two prominent repub
licans wers discussing ths republican pri
maries. "I see," ssld one, "Gurley snd his outfit
have hired forty men to work In the Fourth
wsrd alone, Saturday. This will moan a
cosh outlay of from 1400 to $1,000. I won
