Thnt Otnnlia Is to be tle manufacturing
point for the McKten niotir enr finally
ha been decided by Harrlman officials, who
have concluded with Mr. McKeen and Mr.
Mohler that the motor cars, as now built,
are successful. Car shops are now under
construction In tho Union Pacific shops'
yards In Omaha, which, with the other now
shop being built there, will require the
expenditure of over tl.nn.iK"), and these will
be used for the construction of the new
motor cars.
It hss been seml-offlclhlly given out that
an Immense amount of special machinery
for the construction of motor cars has b"on
bought by the Union Pacific, which has
been decided upon ss the line which is ti
build the cars for tile Harrir.ian line.
"It Is right these cars should be built In
Omaha." said a prominent Union Pacific
official Wednesday morning. "Mr. McKeen,
who Is superintendent of motive power nnd
machinery for the Union Pnclllc. has de
veloped these cars to their present stage
of perfection and he Is the man. to hulld
them. Although he hss pronounced his
latest creation us bring satisfactory and
the company I ready to ipend vast sum
in their construction, still, all know they
ere only In the process of development. Just
as the locomotive wa twenty-five jeurs
ago. It wouM haul the cars all right, but
Is not to be compared with the monster of
today."
When there was talk of a separate com
pany being organised for the construction
of motor cars, there were also rumors of
Mr. McKeen leaving the Union Pacljlc to
go with tho new company. This was, of
course, denied, but the decision to have
the Union Pacific build the cars will set
that whole question at rest.
Motor car No. 8, the latest to he turned
out by Mr. McKeen, except u smaller one.
No. 9. is doing good service between Lin

PROBATE WORK BY WILLIAMS
(Continued from First Page.)
that transpired during the Williams admin
istration that cause most embarrassing sit
uations. Only week before lat the ex-Judge
wa forced to spend practically two whole
days In getting the tangles straightened
out In one estate, being forced by the iu
sistent demands of heirs and the firm at
titude of the present judge.
But the worst Is not yet. As the years
elapse and the present witnesses them
selves participants In these proceedings
themselves die, or become scattered, or have
their memories dulled by the lapse of time,
the condition will become vastly more
serious. Though the lax methods employed
In the many cases already readjusted this
year have been attended, fortunately, with
opportunities for satisfactory settlements,
no one can foresee the future, That negli
gence and Incompetence pervaded every
branch of the county Judge's office for Tour
years Is shown on the face of the records;
the future alone can measure their" depth.
As to how It came about that such.' a
man waa entrusted by the voters of Pierce
county with a position where it was pos
sible to do so much mischief, this explana
tion was made by a leading member of tha
Pierce county bar:'
Williams came to Plerco county about
seven years ago and began the practice of
law at Pliilnvlcw. He tried it a few months,
and could not fnake a go of the law, so he
went to teaching school for a year or so.
Then he tried to practice again; and about
six months later landed the republican
nomination for county Judge.
The Incumbent ut that time was Judge
McDonald, an old man who had held the
position practically all of the time . for
twelve or fourteen years. He had made, a
good record, but there were a lot of peo
ple who thought there ought to be a
change; that he hnd held the office long
enough. Tho democrats had renominated
him, but on account of this feeling Wil
liams was elected by a majority of six
votes. - His ability was unknown, but ho
talked big and put up a big bluff about
his ublllty and honesty.
No more had he begun, hi duties as
county Judge than the luwyers who prac
ticed before him found that be waa egotis
tical. Impulsive and hot tempered, three
qualities that absolutely unfitted him for
a Judicial position. But while the bar be
came thoroughly convinced with these con
ditions, coupled with his inattention to the
duties of- his office, the people throughout
me county nnu not yet oeen convinceu oi
these facts, so Williams was renominated.
Judge McDonald insisted upon renominu
tion and the democrats lacked the nerve
to turn him down. Ho the same condi
tions as before confronted the democrats,
while Wlllium had the advantage of wider
acquaintance than, before, und It must be
.ld a favorable acquaintance with u large
number of the voter.
But by the time he hnd gotten into his
second- term the people throughout the
couniy who had probate matters in court
found that they were not receiving proper
atuntion. Uttle things came up line and
there that kept convincing more and more
the votets that Williams was a mls
lit In the office, though no one, not even
the members of the liar, r-allaed the de
plorable condition of bis office until alter
be hnd left It.
Ills tntttaess Known.
He got tho renominatlon fotf a third term,
however, and then the bar, regardless of
party, proceeded to go after him right.
The democrats nominated Judge Kelley of
riainvlew, who was known by lawyers and
his own friends? as a lawyer of exceptional
ability und of Judicial temperament, but
who hnd suffered from 111 health for sev
eral years, and who had for this reason
been cut off to a considerable extent from
active practice, and from active aaaoclatlon
In iKilitical affaiis. So be wits not then the
vote getter that he would lie today, now
that his bines for the position has been
tried and found to le fliHt-clusa In every
purtlcular.
Well, theie whs a hitter fight, and Wil
liams wa defeated on his own unpopu
larity. The fact that he had represented
estate as attorney before himself, with all
the dangerous poibllitlts open to such a
course: the fact that he had resented any
Inspection of the records of his office,
though supposed to be open to the pub.lc;
the feet that many of hi records were
found to be wanting; the fact that h
IMised s lecturer, having one favirite, "The
Real Boy and His Sister." which he ran
around and delivered wherever he could
make any money at it while he neglected
the afT;iir. of his ofTlce; the fact that he
advertised himself in the Lyceunitle of
Chicago us a lectjrer. solocltlng engage
ments, offering hlnisvlf for any and alt
dates, a fact which was brought home to
the voters by the distribution throughout
the county of l.utO copies of the publication
containing this advertisement these and
other fat'tx that satietled ihn voters that he
wa not the inun they wanted to erve them
longer, killed him.
We all suppoaed when be was so thor
oughly defeated for county Judge last year
that be waa doan and out In this county.
We never dreamed that he would have the
nerve to again project himself into the po
litical limelight. The people of Pierce wero
never so astonished liefore as when word
came from Lincoln that the r -publican tUte
convention had nominated him for railroad
commissioner. Williams came back and
tiled to make us believe that he was sur
prised, too, but when we found out how he
bad broken bis pledge at the convention,
violated the conlldenoe of the county con
vention here, spent the day before the state
convention at West Point trying to work
up a trade in the Interests of his candi
dacy with the Timing county dett gatlou
well, wo knew William.
And If the people of the whole state knew
him a well as we do her in Pierce county
there would I no doubt but that after the
November election he could go back to Ills
old Job of lecturing on "The Real Boy and
His Sister" good advice to young about
being noble and true and never to lie or
cheat and always attend strictly to bust,
and play Uis "svjuars deal" la (vU-

OMAHA. Oct. S To the Editor or Tho
Bee; Dispatches from Lincoln yesterday
stated that the executive committee of the
Civic Federation hnd filed rharges beforo
tJovrrnnr Mltkey ngnlnst the Board of
Fire mid Police Commissioners for non
enforcenient of the Sunday liquor laws.
Will you kindly permit nic. In your col
umns, to propound to the members of said
committee two questions?
First Is your action prompted by a de
sire to see enforced generally such law as
are on our statute books, liquor laws in
cluded? :
Second Is it prompted by your desire to
have tlif ppoplc generally abstain from the
use of all lieer. wine and stronger bever
ages on the Sabbath day?
If 'the first IS your object, then should
you not also urge enforcement of our laws
against ull kinds of Sunday truffle, such as
cigar or newsstands, and ngnlnst all un
peoensary Sunday labor, ouch n paid slng
irs in the churches, actors," barbers, etc.?
Why single out llqunr sjertbrn who con
tribute annually $-..',f00 to our school fund?
If my second conjecture furnished, your
motive, then should you not also proceed
against our clubs nnd drug stores, where
the Sabbath day does not differ from the
other six in the w-eck as to the sale of
liquors, although practically no license is
paid by them? ,
The laboring man's only place of recrea
tion on a Sunday afternoon Is tho public
place. He may go to church In the morn
ing, like the rest, but he rannot afford the
exclusive clubs, to which at least some
of you belong. A. I.. MEYElt.

MANY PEOPLE INTERVIEWED
i warms of Humanity at Cooper's 1
Louis Headquarters.,
SALE OF PREPARATIONS IS ENORMOUS
Mound tity Has Beeome Ovemhelin
Inaly Interested In the Vnana
Philanthropist and HI
Medicines
ST. Lol.'li, Oct. 10. In view of tho
enormous sale of Coopers preparations
now going on In this city and the intense
interest wlihh Mr. Cooper has stirred up
since his arrival, a representative of th
Ulobc-Democrat spent Wednesday after
noon at the young man's headquarters,
watching the swarm or humanity come
and go.
During the afternoon the reporter inter
viewed many ot the callers nnd obtained
statements from nil who 'cared to give
them as to their experiences with Cooper
and his preparations.
The following are selected from thosu
statements as being typical of the general
expression of the people seen:
Mr. W. T. Bray, living at 1120 Angelic
street, when Interviewed, said: "I had
suffered for years with stomach, liver and
kidney trouble, seven years. In fact. I had
tried many remedies, but obtained no he'p
from any medicine I took. I nought one
bottlo of the New Discovery inodicino nnd
one of the Quick Relief. After using them
one week, I felt o wonderfully Improved
I can hardly believe it possible. I am
very grateful to Mr. Cooper. Ha Iia a
wonderful medicine."
Another caller was Mr. Clara Yoho,
living at 1410 locust street. She said: "I
had suffered with stomach trouble for
several years. I was so bad tho laat year
I could not eat anything at all. ' I could
not digest my food and had severe pain In
my stomach most of the time. I did not
sleep well and hud severe headaches at
times. I have tried many remedies, and
have been to a number of physicians. I
bought some of this man Cooper's prepar
ations. I feel greatly benefited- and nave
gained steadily In flesh since uslnrf the
medicines. I have not a trace of stomach
trouble left, and have come hero to thank
Mr. Cooper."
Mr. C. A. Taylor of 4220 Finney avenue
said: "I have been suffering with severe
stomach trouble for several venrs and
owing to the nervous conditions caused by
this trouble, I could not sleep. The only
relief I obtained was when up and walk
ing around. I tried everything heard of
for stomach trouble, but nothing gave mo
any relief. I heard so much of this man
Cooper that I decided to try his medicine.
I have used several bottles and noticed
a decided Improvement almost Imme
diately. I am now entirely cured, and feel
happier than I have for several years."
Mr. John Schenk, of 2111 North Twelftit
street, when questioned, said: "I have
had eight years of suffering and sleep
less nights on account of stomach trou
ble and headaches. I have used ono bot
tle of Cooper's preparation, and now rest
every night. I have not a trace of stom
ach trouble left and have been Immensely
benefited every way."
Mr. S. P. Hitching, living at 2145
Franklin avenue, made the following
statement: "I have suffered with rheu
matism for thirty years. I was stiff In all
my Joints so that I could hardly use them.
I have tried Cooper's remedy and have
come here to thank . him and purchasa
more, as I can now handle myself per
fectly after using the preparations one
week. I feel better than I have for
years."
Amelia Leonard, living ftt 150 Salsbury
street, said: "I have suffered for the
past ten years with stomach trouble, head
ache, dlzxtness and kidney trouble. I
have been treated by a number of physi
cians and have used all kinds of medicine,
nothing did me any good. My appetite
was very Irregular and my bock pained me
greatly. In fact my life was a misery to
me all the time. I suffered with nervous
ness and loss of sleep. I have used two
bottles of tho New Discovery medicine.
This morning an Immense tapeworm
passed from my system. This has un
doubtedly been the cause of all my suf
ferings, and I am very grateful to this
man who has relieved me." ,
In spite of assertions made by various
physicians that Cooper Is a fad, who will
soon die out, the young man seems to be
gaining even greater headway as his visit
draws to a close. It Is estimated that
4,000 people called on him yesterday.

Conscientious Doctors
AT THE PLAYHOUSES
""eeret ervire !mii" at the Kmc.
Chnrle .T. Aldrlch hnd his compsny
opened a short engagement st the Krug
lust night In "Secret Pervlce 8am," a de
tective play that hns 'em all beaten. It
starts but with a murder and runs a more
or less turbulent course through four acts
nnd ten scenes, when Sam finally succeeds
In unmasking the he and she devils and
placing alt things right. Th Interest of
the play turns on the doings of 8am, who
achieves some feats that surpass old Cap
Collier, Nick Carter or any of the others
who have shown In yellow-backed litera
ture. For example, when the two devils
of tho play with a brace of desperate
burglars, dylll holes in the old man's safe
to secure papers, putting In dynamite and
nitroglycerin both to blow the door open,
the triumph of villainy seems about to be
consummated. The fuse sputters and
; flsses, and then there Is a loud bang and
the door files open. lntend of the papers
there stands Secret Service Sam, who has
entered the safe in some magic way, and
he smilingly asks the quartet If any of
them were ever left. All Jump him with
guns sud knives and the like to annihilate
him, but Pam disappears, only to turn up
a minute later, dressed as one of tho
I burglars and aiding In the search for the
' detective. It abounds In such surprises,
. and the delight of the gallery la unbounded
I nt each of the sudden shifts made by tho
, wonderful man. A matinee this afternoon
and a performance this evening close the
engagement here.
SNAKE INVADES CITY HALL
Engineer Belnasi Has Experience
with Real Reptile in
Engine Ilaom.
A real snake story came out of the clly
hall Wednesday morning. Engineer O. It.
Belnap called such reliable persons as
Clerk .Butler and Treasurer Fink to wit
ness, so the records would show the truth.
While In the engine room of tho city hull
Wednesday morning Mr. Belnap started to
1 pick up what appeared to him In a dark
ened corner as a piece of old hose. The
object was a snake six fct and seven
Inches long. Mr. Belnap had something of
a thrill when he made the discovery and
! saw two small eyes gleaming at him. He
' dropped the- reptile as quickly as some of
the councllmen would let go of a telephone
franchise ordinance. Mr. Snake was given
a steam bath and then cremated In the
furnace.
Before the Incineration Mr. Belnap
showed the snake to some of the officials.
