HE OX ALL BUT BRYAN JIM
Johnny Johnson and the Eett Must
Now Bow to William J.
ONLY ROOSEVELT CAN BEAT HIM
l'rralilrat, finym Dlm. Will N
Kan, Therefore ! Idol f
Ibe fowbor Mayor
la It.
"William Jennings Bryan will ba noml
nateil by acclamation by th democratic
party for president. He will be rlucted. The
rank and file have determined tills."
Such wua the statement made by Mayor
Jim" Saturday. His honor had ben ap
proached with the rumors of deduction
from the peerlens leader, the defeat of the
Bryan endorsement resolution la Pennsyl
vania, the statement of a leading Texas
politician that Bryan Is a buck number
In that state and laatly the budding boom
for Governor John A. Johnson of Minne
sota. During the enumeration of thes sitna
of the times the mayor's face clouded. Bo
might the great Napoleon have looked when
Informed of the treachery of Hernadolte.
Put when the painful enumeration was
finished, the mayor looked up. His eye fell
on one of the three portraits of the Peer
less on the wall of his office; a smile
broke on the good natured faoe of his
honor, a umile that sent fears and ap
prehensions scattering to the four winds.
Ttis portraits of the peerlM leader seemed
actually to smile bravely In response. Then
the mayor spoke the woris above quoted.
As 8 further Introspective and deductive
analysis of the situation Mayor "Jim"
elucidated the following facts:
Roosevelt lb Only Mao.
"Tha only man who could poaslbly beat
Bryan is Koosevelt. And he won t run."
The mayor paused and assumed an air of
mystery. '
"My information on this fact Is direct
and correct," he said. "I have It from a
man who Is ss clnxe In the counsels of
the president as any man In the country.
K few weeks sgo he was in the president's
office consulting him on sjmt Important
matter, when a great republican leader
ntered. Mr. Kooaeveit excused himself
snd went to talk to the republican leader.
They onnvented for some moments and
when the president returned to his other
visitor he seemed considerably angry.
" 'It's funny," says the president, that
the people csn't take . me st my word.
Beems ss if I'd hava to get up ery morn
ing before breskfsst and issue a prods
SMtl"n. I said J won't run again and I
meant jvt what 1 a Id." "
rvoui tl.'s tnsi.le Ml history the mayor
has concluded that P.ooeeveit will not be a
oandkliite And o other me. he says,
eaa possibly defeat lr. Bryan. Therefore
Brvaa will be elected. Q. K. IX
ut, oa the other band. ene but Mr.
Bryan can win victory for the democratic
party.
"Any other man but Bryan wouldn't
stand as much show as a lamb with a
butcher," ssys the mayor. "Why, It
would be Just like It was In 1904. I was out
on a trip through the west then and I met
a lot of the boys st Chadron. Da you
know, every one of them was golmr to
vote for Roosevelt? Tes. sir, and they were
Just as good democrats ss ever stood in
shoe leather. I ssked them why they
weren't lining up for Parker and they told
me they were msd because Bryan had been
turned down. That's the way It was all
over the oountry, and that's Just the wsy
It will he this election If Bryan is turned
down."
The mayor left lsst night for Wyoming,
where he will fire a feaf ndvsnoa guns for
Mr. Bryan. He admits he intends to make
eight or ten Klittcal speeches.
GAS KIl.HT 19 ALL FIXED IP
Attack os l.oeal C'oiapany Arranged
Before Departure.
Mayor Dahlmun left for his two weeks'
vacation In Wyoming last night. Be
fore leaving he prepared his attack upon
the present gas contract held by the Omaha
Gas company. While he Is absent the
champions of his "dollar gas" project will
be busy collecting signatures to the peti
tion prepared by htm for the submission
of the ordinance recently defeated In the
city counuil to a referendum vote of the
people. Saturday morning the mayor sent
out a number of copies of the petition to
presidents of local Improvement clubs, ac
companied by the following letter:
Dear Sir: 1 erclose petition, which please
present to yotir club ami if it meets with
the approval of Its members, kindly have
as many sign as you possibly tan. This
ordinance was defeated on June 11 by
the cliy oojncil, but under the initiative
and referendum law we have a right to
petition the city council to pass this ordi
nance; if they then refuee same can be
submitted to the people themselves at this
fall's election.
For years the people hsve been -fighting
for cheaper gss. The gas company hsa
blocked them at every turn, and plundered
them at will, and will continue to do so.
The people now hsve sn opportunity lo
tske the metier In their own hands by
this procedure. If It develoe, ss some
contend, that an ordinance of this kind
csnnot be enforced by reason of our laws
being tnaleiuute, let's find it out and then
change them o it n be enforced.
The people have an oi;ortunlty now to
Join In an effective fight. Let us Join
hands and see whether we are helpleaa
or hther the p.-opi can rule whe'.i they
tske a notion to do eo. J hoje v,our club
will be aiili us In the fittht Ftesp-ct fully.
JAMffl C. DM 11. MAN, Maor.
The petition sets forth the proposed or
dinance in full, providing that no company,
firm, individual or corporation shall charge
more than SI per 1.00 cubts feet of gas and
providing a penalty for tha violation of the
provisions and requests that the asms si. all
be submitted to a referendum vote In esse
It is not enacted by tha mayor and council
before the date of tha next general elec
tion. November 8, 1W7.
In this connection it Is recalled at the
office of the mayor that the Funkhouaer
resolution provided for a reduction In the
price of gaa on or before July 1, Wl, with
the alternative of a somewhat similar
proposition being submitted to the voters.
Monday will be the time fixed by the res
olution and the mayor Is interested In the
probable course of the council Tuesday
night In case the gas company does not
make a voluntary reduction.
"If the reduction Is made," said the
mayor," we can call in the petitions, and
the council has a right to take any stopa
It desires pending the time fixed for the
vote." .
CRAIG DEFENDS ROAD STUFF
Contractor Is Called Before Co n n t y
Board to Define Certain
' 8ton.
George W. Craig & Co., the contractors,
who are laying the macadam on the Fort
Calhoun road, were before the ' county
board Saturday morning to defend the
Quality of some - of the stone they have
been using in a psn of the road. Friday
morning after an inspection by members of
the board and County Engineer Beat work
was stopped pending an inquiry into the
matter by the board. The members of tin;
board deolare the lowa stone used by tho
contractors in about a quarter of a mile of
the road was not up to the standard as to
hardness and also was so mixed with dirt
and sand as to be unsatisfactory. Mr.
Crsig appeared before the board end said
if he were permitted to use all of the Inwa
stone he has on hand he would receive no
more and would give a double guarantee
that the portion of the road laid with this
stone would give satisfaction. The board
favored the use of Nehawka limestone.
County Engineer Beal wrs out of the
city and no definite action was taken. The
board Insisted that the specifications btt
followed and thst no more of the" Iowa
stone be laid until Mr. Beat's return. The
contractor may be required to take up the
portion of the road he has already laid
and screen the stone before replacing It.
In the meantime the matter will rest until
an opinion can be secured from the county
engineer.
