'clsloh of Judge Day of the district court,
ttwhich sustains the decision of City Clerk
Elbourn and overrules the attempt of R.

.-, In ... giving his decision Judge Day re
viewed the form of the proceeding, saying
the relators had held It unfair to have the
ballot arranged as City Clerk Elbourn had
(arranged It, . which gave the direction
"Vote for one republican and one demo
crat, and 'under It the name of Weller,
republican; Hippie, democrat, and Howell,
by petition. The judge said the opposition
(bad said under the law Howell could have
jio place on .the ballot. He took up this
qu.stlon nrst, as on it rested the other
'question.'
The legislature of 1903 bad created an
act ormlng a water board, which, it was
urged, gave a right to only the republican
Knd 'democratic parties to have a candi
date on the ballot It had been urged
further this candidate must be the regular
'nominee of the party. The judge held
this was too narrow a construction of the
law. He said the water board act must
jbe construed in relation to the general
.provision of the Australian ballot law.
By cutting off of the ballot the words
j"one republican and one democrat," leaving
ithe direction, "vote for two." Howell's
chances are admitted to be even more re
mote than before he pressed his case to a
decision, and Howell himself is said to have
, taken this view of it.

CITY IMPROVEMENT?" ASKED
Grading; and Street Upenlng Borden
of Plea from New Clnb
on Outskirts.
Residents of Newport and Belvldere ad
ditions, lying. north west of bid Fort Omaha,
have formed an Improvement ;club and
asked tho city council for Improvements in
the way of opening and grading streets.
The club, in a communication, declares
that north of Curtis avenue, between Thir
tieth and Thirty-sixth streets, not a thor
oughfare Is passable,: leaving many homes
Isolated and inaccessible, and necessitating
the payment of extra, charges for the de
livery of fuel and merchandise, . It la de
clared also that property has depreciated
In value by the condition, that the residents
have paid much money Into the city treas
ury without recelrlng any benefit, and a
demand la mode for immediate results.
Among other things wanted Is the opening
and grading of Ida street from Thirtieth
to Thirty-ninth, and the grading of Curtis
avenue from Thirtieth street to the Jewish
cemetery. The community Is Just insldo
the city limits. The petition has been re
ferred to the city engineer for a report.
of Albert, yet they remembered, after some
cogitating, that their mother had told them
of "Uncle Albert" or "Cousin Albert," or
other Alberts in the family. . So the longer
Devereese traveled the grayer became his
hairs until by the time he returned to
the station he was quite an old man.
At one house John Johnson was going
to set the dog on Devereese, who was in
citizen's clothes, but when the officer ex
plained his mission the rude canine was
told to lay down and the policeman asked
in to have some lunch.
The police records do not show a John
Johnson having been on the force, in re
cent years and no public official of that
name could be recalled.
JOHN JOHNSONS EVERYWHERE
Forty Men of that Name Ready to
Claim Heirship of Dead
"Brother."
There is "too much Johnson" In Omaha
for Officer Devereese of the police station.
Officer Devereese waa given a letter by
Chief of Police Donahue and told to find
John Johnson, referred to in the epistle
written by the chief of police at Seattle.
Mr. Devereese did not think there were as
many people In the city as the number of
John Johnsons he has already met since
he started on his quest. With large
patches of gloom on his face and the
letter in his hand the officer enlisted the
assistance of the dally newspapers in find
ing the right John Johnson.
The letter contains the information that
Albert Johnson died at Seattle October
4, leaving an estate valued at $1,600. The
next of kin Is believed to be a brother,
John Johnson, who Is said to have lived
In Omaha six years ago and thought to
be here now. The Omaha Johnson held
some publio office or was a policeman, the
letter states.
Officer Devereese called on about forty
John Johnsons In all and was surprised
to learn of the number of Albert Johnsons
in the world and how many had resided
In Seattle. While some called on were
not sure they had brothers by the name
Undenvear.

At republican sUte headquarters the
final letters to committeemen and the rank
and file are being sent out; the large force
of young women which' has been at work
during the campaign has ben greatly re
duced, and a general feeling that success
will grace the republican cause all the
way down the ticket obtain
A. C. Wright, ono of Chairman Burgess
assistants, la Just back from a trip through
the southwebt part of the state. He says
he found but one republican working
against Governor Mickey west of McCook.
"The main cry oi the opposition In thia
campaign has been the alleged unpopu
larity of Governor Mickey," said one of
the men at state headquarters. "It la
easy to understand how such an abstract
proposition can be enlarged upon and ex
aggerated. The wees of disappointed of
fice seekers were seised with avidity and
every art of malicious slander resorted to
in order to defeat the governor. But his
honest, business-like - administration has
been good enough . to stand out sturdily
against the malignancy of his traducers.
Our information shows the voting publio
has been disgusted with the attacks made
upon Governor Mickey because he la a
Christian and not afraid to confess it and
has refused to believe the cry of 'hypo
crite' and 'money sharlC raised against him
by Irresponsible persona and papers- The
cartoons villlfylng the governor by repre
senting him with a halo of piety h ive
made many vote, as our letters attest.
As is usual In such cases of malicious
personal attacks, , they have worn them
selves out and eaten out their own false
tings."
In one of the last letters being sent out
the republican state committee says:
Remember the Nebraska republican who
trades a. vote for governor, or any other
office, for a vote for Roosevelt simply gives
something for nothing. Roosevelt already
has many thousands more votes than he
will need In this state. If you really wish
to keep Bryan out of the senate vote for
your legislative candidates. That Is the
way to support Roosevelt. Get the vote
out.
In another circular the committee says:
" In Nebraska a campaign cannot be won
by practicing falsehood and deceit. The
opposition may be able to make a great
jtvlse that way and may cheer each other
With thrilling prevarications about the con
ditions in their respective localities, but
that will not elect one of their candidates.
The republican campaign managers have
no occasion to descend to the level of their
opponents. The plain truth about condi
tions in state and nation Is all that we
have been called upon to give to the people;
the facta and figure constitute a mighty
argument in favor of republican Buccess.
We have contented ourselves with refuting
the slanders of the opposition by educating
them in the rudiments of revenue legisla
tion, leaving slander and calumny to be
used by those who have nothing better in
stock, ' 'i
T lie result now depends upon the rank
and file. In the vulgar purlunce, "It is up
to you." Keep on the alert, nail the cam
paign lie as soon as it appears, assist your
county chairman in every possible way
and devote all of your spare time to per
sonal work from now 'until the polls are
closed. Get every .republican vote in your
precinct into the box, - ,
"Look out for the annual crop of false
hoods and roorbacks li the World-Herald
now. Less than a week remains until elec
tion now and you may cypect them to fall
thick and fast," exclaimed 'an experienced
republican politician '"That story about
slathers of money being 'on 'tap at repub
lican headquarters is just a fake' to send the
leg-pullers around and coVer up the tracks
of the democratic boodlers. The faker
slipped a cog when he" described Mr. Rose
water as handing out the dough on Monday,
because, to my knowledge, Mr. Rosewater
left for Chicago Sunday night and did not
get back until Tuesday, and. must have
been at least 600 miles away from the al
leged scene of action. . .. ,
"If the water works Is putting up any
money to beat Howell it is yet to be dis
covered. It put up nothing to beat him for
the legislature two years ago, or to light
his water purchase bill', nor did It turn a
hand to keep him off the water board when
the vacancy occurred. The money that is
being put up to Influence the water, board
election is coming from President Nash's
electric lighting company, which is depend
ing upon 'Howell to beat municipal light
bonds for them.'
"The story about the attempted regUitra.
tlon by republicans at South Omaha of
strike breakers who have been in the state
long enough to vote Is another piece of
raising dust. The chances are, if past ex
perience Is to be reckoned with, that the
democrats have some job up to poll a lot
of Illegal strike breakers' votes for the
democratic candidates and are accusing the
republicans of what they intend to do them
selves Just to distract attention. As I said
before, look out for yelps about colonizers.
repeaters, barrels of money and all sorts
of bogles In the democratic organ from now
on."
There will be a meeting of the Fifth
Ward Republican club at Irfllng hall, 2U12
Corby street, Friday at 8 p. m. Governor
Mickey, John L. Kennedy, John P. Breen
and other speakers will address the audi
ence.
Charley Sloan, vice-chairman of the state
republican - committee, stopped oft In
Omaha between trains.
'I have been making a thorough can
vass of certain sections of the state,"
aid Mr. Sloan, "and find the most en
couraging conditions ' for the entire re
publican ticket. ' Governor Mickey has
gained remarkably, especially during the
last week and he will continue to gain
until election day when he will be re
elected by a large , margin.' The republi
cans over the state have awakened to
the Importance of hustling for the gover
nor ; and all have their coats off now.
The one noticeable feature everywhere
Is the perfect unanimity of sentiment
for Governor Mickey and the rest of the
ticket"
