(Frnrn a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, March 4. 8peclaL The re
publican convention of the First district
selected Senator Elmer J. Burkett and
former State Senator J. IL Arends of Otoe
county delegates to the republican na
tional convention and J. -A. McPJierrln of.
Johnson and Norman Musselman of Rich
ards n, alternates. The delegates were
Instructed to vote for the nomination of
Secretary Taft for president until released
from their obligation by the war-secretary.
The convention adopted resolutions, en
dorsing the policies of President Roose
velt; endorsing the administration of oGv
ernor Sheldon and the work of Congress
man Pollard. X J. Weaver of Richardson
county was chairman and M. T. Dobbins
secretary of the convention.
The selection of eSnator Burkett and
Senator Arends was a result of a combt
nation of the counties outside ef Lan
caster. Inspired by the action of the Lan
caster county convention In instructing
Judge Strode, its candidate; to vote for
the nomination of President Roosevelt.
All ef the other counties In the district
had Instructed their delegates for Secre
tary Taft and, consequently, refused to
vote for the Lancaster man. though per
sonally many favored his selection. On
one occasion Judge Strode was Invited to
appear before a caucus of the outside dele
gates and was given an opportunity to say
he favored the nomination of Secretary
Taft, but Judge Strode, In Ms address.
said ha had been Instructed to vote for
the president and if there was any chance
that he would accept the nomination, ho
would stick to that Instruction. That set
tied it so far as Judge Strode was con
cerned, and the caucus proceeded to count
noses and lined up for Burkett and Arends.
Lancaster Mem Die Hard.
n Lancaster county was not content to
accept defeat gracefully, however, and
carried the fight onto the convention floor.
voting only for Judge Strode and refusing
to vote for a second delegate r alternates
or on the resolutions. C. O. Whedon and
Judge England did tho speaking for the
Lancaster delegation, the former beginning
his talks when a motion was put to call
a roll and have each county vote for two.
Whedon wanted the men put In nomina
tion first. He was sat upon by Chairman
Weaver, but when Lancaster was reached
he took advantage of the opportunity to
make a nominating speech for Judge
Strode, telling of the many good qualities
of the latter and frowning on the sugges
tion that the outside counties would think
of combining against the capital county.
This speech, like the first, fell dead. He
got another chance to make a speech when
the roll was called for the selection of
alternates. He told how he had discovered
a combination had been made when the
first vote was taken, and then said Lan
caster would not vote. He was greeted with
cries of derision for his boyishness and
Jeers from many parts of the room.
It was about this time that Judge Eng
land, his big heart beating big for the
defeated. In a lengthy address inquired
how It was that such a man as Judge
Strode had been defeated.
Chairman Weaver replied simply, ''Be
cause a majority of the convention was
opposed to his selection."
Lancaster got to cheer once and made
quite a stir toward starting a stampede
and that was when Cass county was called
to vote for delegates. The chairman cast
eighteen votes for Burkett and Arends.
Judge Sullivan challenged the vote and cast
his own for Judge Strode. Lancaster tried
to force a poll of the delegation, but as
the convention had adopted a rule that
the delegates present be allowed to cast
the entire vote and as only a portion of
the Cass delegation was In the convention
the chairman refused to stand for the re
quest from Lancaster. Judge Sullivan voted
for Strode and Arends. That was all
there was to It. The balance of the coun
ties lined up solidly for Burkett and Arends.
Laaieavster Tries for Ceaveatloa.
The entire morning and a portion of the
afternoon was spent in caucuses, the out
side counties In one and Lancaster in an
other. Lancaster could have landed Judge
Strode, but the judge refused to stand for
Taft Instructions. In its secret caucus.
Lancaster voted to stand only for Strode
and no other and made plans to permit
only the del-gates present to vote, but
the other side was Just as vigilant. Lan
caster wanted to talcs Pollard and Strode
and tried to make such a combination, but
this failed, the proposition coming after the
arrangement had been made for Burkett
and Arends.
The Lancaster delegation tried to tell the
other delegates that It dldnt want Burkett,
though friendly to him; that the county
wanted only Strode.
"We ll give you Burkett. anyhow," was
the answer sent back and the convention
did, though not a Lancaster vote was cast
for the senator.

In Welcome to the
of New York-
Paris Machines.
Toot, toot from tho siren and other whis
tles; hurrah, hurrah from thousands of
throats.
Banked with gambo from Honey Creek
bottoms until it looked more like a mud
scow than an automobile, the American
car, first in the New York Paris race, ar
rived at the Western Union telegraph of
fice In Omaha Wednesday morning at 11:40.
Montague Roberts, with his perpetual smile,
was at the wheel, the place he has occupied
continuously Knee the car left New York.
The Americans spent the night here and
leave for the west at 8 o'clock this morn
ing. "We were not stalled at Logan last
night, but Mmply stopped tD get some sleep."
said Montague Roberts, when asked if they
had become stuck In the mud at Logan. ,
Roberts looks small in all the photos
which are taken with him almost concealed
In the big machine, but when he jumps 1
from the car when It arlved at the Fred
ricksou garatse on Farnam street his six
feet 2 Inches showed him the man to be
chosen to handle a car through all sorts
of trouble, for he looks almost strong
enough to lift the car from any mire.
As the car pulled into Omaha the occu
pants were M. B. Hatch, who Is In Omaha
as representative of the Thomas factory,
Montague Roberts, George Scheuster, the
mechanician, who Is making the trip with
Roberts and Captain Hansen, who arrived
from Buffalo to make the trip with the
American car.
Captain Hansen Aboard.
Captain Hansen carries a silk American
flag given him by a young woman on the
ferry In New York. She thought he was
an American and asked him to unfurl the
American flag first in Parte. Captain
Hansen explained that he was with the
French car, but would be glad to carry
her flag for her. He is now with the
American car and can carry that flag with
more grace. He Is the Norwegian arctic
explorer who went to the relief of Peary
and knows the arctic regions, besides
holding a permit from the Siberian rail
road for the privilege of using the ties
of that road for 2.0"0 miles, which should
be quite a help In the big race.
Seldom has such Interest been mani
fested in any event In Omaha as was
shown when the siren announced the
coming of the car. In spite of the con
tinued notice given by the press that the
siren -would blow when the car left Mis
souri Valley and this should be taken as a
notice- for all owners of automobiles to
go to Council Bluffs to accompany Mon
tague Roberts to Nebraska soli, little
attention was paid to the notice. When
the whistle blew about 10 a. m. thousands
rushed to Douglas street and to the end
of the Douglas street bridge acrss the
river, nearly blocking the bridge to
travel snd still the autolsts had not
reached Council Bluffs.
When the whlstlo blew a. second time
to announce the real arrival of the car
it looked a holiday. People took to the
street In the drizzling rain to see the
leaders in the race. When Roberts turned
off at Thirteenth and Douglas streets to
report at the Western Union office the
crowd swayed onto Farnam street until
that street was a reminder of one of the
nights of the big Ak-Sax-Ben parade.
Farther West, More Americans.
'The farther a est we get the more real
Americans the people se.-m," said Mr.
Roberts, after he had doffed his slicker
and stood In his sheepskin lined jacket
and red knit woolen cap, as he was handed
bundle sfter bundle of mall at the garage.
"The people of the west are the real people
of this country and the farther west we
get the better they are. If ever I can get
enough money ahead to go into any kind
of business the west will be the place for
me. Hospitable: Why the people all vie
with one another In seeing who can do
the most for us. but it was not so in the
east."
"They can talk about their snows In
Indiana, but they are not a marker to
the mud of Iowa. I never dreamed of
striking such roads when I left Chicago,
and In spite of that we have not had a
horse hitched in front of the machine
since leaving Chicago. This nosegay? Why
a farmer's daughter ths other side of
Council Bluffs stood in the mud slong
the road and handed me that as we passed.
Tin y all like to show us In some form or
otlur that e are welcome."
Police ta Control Crowds.
A suuad of policenu n was necessary to
keep back the crowd which surrounded
tlie garage wtitn the machine had entered.
Boys scrambled all over the roof and a
crowd broke In a aide door to get a closer

BLOOMFIELD, Neb., March 4. (Special
Telegram.) Olaf Olson, who came hert
with his family from Rosalie. Neb., Thurs
day lust and rented the Swanson farm,
four miles southeast of this city, was thli
morning arrested by Sheriff Dorsey ot
Thurston county and taken on the noon
train to Pender by the sheriff.
When asked by a correspondent of Tht
Been what evidence. If any, he had against
Oisen, the sheriff refused to talk on thi
subject and only stated that he came hers
to arrest Olsen and to perform his dutj
as an officer.
PENDER, Neb., March 4. (Special Tele.
gTam.) Sheriff Dorsey and Oiaf Olsen ar
rived here this evening from BloomflcM
to which place Olsen had removed from
Rosalie. The sheriff declined to say much
about the affair, but denied that Olsen
was under arrest, but that he was simply
In his custody and that he was held "on
account of a deal between Olsen and th
hired man." Olsen, however, says he was
placed under arrest, but does not appear
to know for what.
County Attorney Chase says there has
been no warrant Issued for Olsen. It is
thought here that the sheriff Is working
on some communication received from u
clairvoyant at Sioux City. No one here,
however, appears to be ablo to penetrate
the air of mystery which surrounds this
latest move In the celebrated case.
