Although the democratic judicial commit
tee haa met and decided .to call a conven
tion for October I. immediately after toe
congressional convention at the Jacksonian
club and probably with the aame delegates,
many of the party leaders are counseling
the endorsement of Howard Kennedy, Jr.,
the republican nominee.
' 'A canvass of the situation haa revealed
the fact that there Is very little, If any,
suitable democratic timber for the con

strength and popularity and the fact that
It is the presidential election year
Chairman Ed P. Bmlth of the Judicial
committee says he has heare a number of
possibilities mentioned to make the race
against Kennedy, but declines to gle their
names. Mr. Bmlih did not care to go Into
the situation In detail. Other democrats of
prominence, however, declared emphatically
the only thing for the party to do is to -endorse
Kennedy and thus encourage the
abolition of partisan contests with j-egard,
ty the Judiciary. ,
The certificate testifying that Dr. A. H.
Hippie was regularly nominated for mem
ber of the Water board by a democratic
city convention has been filed with the city
clerk. It is signed by C. J. Bmyth, chair
man of the convention, and A. O. Ellick,
secretary, and its authority has not yet
! been officially questioned. '
County Commissioner James P. Connolly,
who aspires to a place on the Water board,
denies emphatically that he haa dropped
Ma court tight to compel the city committee
to submit the nomination at a primary
ejection. It was current talk that the
mandamus suit had been Indefinitely post
poned by commoa' consent.
"This is not true," said Mr". Connolly.
"I am In the ns:ht to stay. Whether or hot

A. H. Hennlngs, treasurer of the repub

' a two weeks' tour throughout the state in
quest of campaign funds, reporting satis
factory accumulations, prospects of enor
mous crops and every indication for re
publican success from the top of the ticket
to the uttermost punctuation point.
"I was given the glad hand everywhere
I went and was in nearly every section of
Nebraska," said Treasurer Henninga. "My
efforts to raise funds, which ore absolutely
necessary to maintain the organization and
carry on the campaign, had results satis
factory to myself, and I hope to the state
1 committee. In other words, I brought back
what I consider a fair amount of con
tributions. "The political situation Is remarkably fa.

Fears regarding the wheat crop should be

"John has been fighting for forty-five

CITY DENIES RESPONSIBILITY
Attorneys Say Municipality Is Hot
Liable for Death of a Contract
i
Laborer.
As the result of the death of John Et
ringer, a laborer, by the caving In of i
sewer which he was helping to build near
Forty-third and Lake streets, the city Is
confronted with a claim for 15,000 damages
from his brothers and sisters. They num
ber five, as follows: Angella. Kate, Anna

though the sewer was under contract by

the contractor is liable for any damages
of this kind and that the city Is adequately
protected by bond.
MARRIAGE INC0UNTY JAIL
Neptlals of Man and Womaa Who Are
Arrested bat the Night
Before.
John Fogelberg of Scandla, Kan., evi
dently considers marriage less disagreeable
than a sixty-day sentence In the county
Jail. He may have had some other reason
for his marriage this morning in that prison
to Martha Emkert of Omaha. Perhaps
he liked her. But his next action after the
marriage was to appeal to Acting Mayor
Zlmman. for a pardon from his sixty-day
sentence for vagrancy. The principals were
arrested Friday night In a single room.

NEBRASKA DAY -AT ST. LOUIS
Date Definitely Fixed u Ootober Twenty
Fifth Instead of Eighteenth.
ELABORATE PLANS FOR THE OCCASION
Governor Mickey, E. Benjamin An-
drewa, John L. 'Webster, O. W.
Wattles and Others from
This State Will Speak.
October 25 has definitely been fixed as
Nebraska day st the Louisiana rwenase
exposition.' Thrs snnounoement was made
yesterday by O. W. Wattles or tne Ne
braska commission, which body nas in
charge arrangements for this day. The day
originally was set for October 18. but wing
to Festival hall having been taken for mat
date the commissioners deemed It best to
postpone the event a week so as to have
the celebration In the large Festival hall.
The exercises In observance of Nebraska
day will partake of speaking music and
other features and, to a large 'degree, will
be commemorative of the fiftieth anniver
sary of the political organisation of Ne
braska as a territory. Chancellor E. Ben
jamin Andrews of the University of Ne
braska will open the exercises at 1 p. m.
with prayer. Governor D. K. Francis will
deliver the address of welcome, which will
be followed by a response from Governor
J. H. Mickey. John I . Webster, G. W.
Wattles and others will follow with short
addresses. Interspersed by selections from
leading Nebraska musical talent.
From 4 to p. m. a reception will be held
at the Nebraska headquarters in the Ag
ricultural building. . " "
Special rates will be made by the various
railroads, a round trip rate of (3.50 being
announced from Omaha. The members of
the Nebraska commission are urging all
Nebraskan to take it upon themselves, as
a matter of state pride, to be In attendance
at the exposition on Nebraska day, and
the assurance is given hat no efforts will
be spared to make the occasion a pleasant
one for those who attend.
EAGLES WILL SOON FLY HOME
Make Ho Effort to Land Grand Lodge
Meeting; Next Year for
Omaha.
It Is expected the Omaha Eagles who at
tended the convention of the' grand lodge
at Baltimore will be winging their, way
home in a few days. The convention ad
journed Friday, to meet next year at Den
ver. It was expected an effort would be
made to entertain the grand lodge in this
city upon the occasion of its next conven
tion. A. G. Stephan, one of the trustees or
the loca aerie, said the organization here
was not ready to extend an Invitation to
the convention for several reasons.
"We felt the time was not ripe to hold
the event here," he said. "It takes consid
erable money to entertain a body of that
kind. No efforts were made to see what
the citizens of Omaha would be willing to
do and we had nothing to offer the grand
lodge. For this reason nothing was done.
I have received a telegram saying John F.
Pelletler of Kansas City was elected presi
dent of the grand lodge. There were sev
eral candidates In the field and a sharp
fight has been on to have the office go west
of the Missouri river. Bernard F. Mc
Glnty of Chicago was the strongest rival
Felletler had. The Kansas City order of
Eagles went east In a body on a special
train and took a band. An excursion train
also was made up, and these facts, I pre
sume, carried considerable weight."
The Omaha aerie was represented by the
regular delegates, A. 8. Ritchie and John
H. Tuthlll. Mr Ritchie, being chairman
of the committee to draft resolutions, drew
up the resolution regarding the death of
Past President Beth A. Cole. In connection
with this office Mr. Ritchie told the story
of Mr. Cole's visit to Baltimore as a
wounded soldier during the war. He had
been left fer dead upon the battlefield at
Gettysburg, but a friend discovered him
and helped him on a freight car for Balti
more. At this place he- was nursed back
to health and strength by a Baltimore fam
ily, and always afterward there was a
warm spot In Cole's heart for Baltimore
and Baltimore people.
The most unfavorable feature of the eon
ventlon of the grand lodge was the rain
The big parade, for which lavish prepara
tlone had been made, took place In a drlv
ing rain and the participants were soaked
when the lines finally disbanded and the
bedraggled Eagles went to the hotels. .

Omaha coal dealers are satisfied it la but
question of a few days at the longeai
before the Burlington Issues a new tariff
that, will fully restore the old rates on
steam coal, following in the wake of North-
western's unexpected and Independent ac
tion on this matter. . Said one. of the
dealers:
'The Burlington hates to give In, but
It will have to. Local agents have been
flooding head offices with protests and re
quests for concessions. Considerable busi
ness will go to the Northwestern before the
Burlington can make a new tariff effective,
