Cm a anarch . warrant aworn out by El mer B. Thomas for J.J1'. Da via, "a real dent freeholder of the city of Benson." Sheriff Bralley and two deputies late Thuraday afternoon seised upon the entire visible liquor supply at Kru park. The sale of liquor was stopped Just when the crowds in the park were the largest and pleasure seekers had to resort to red lem onade and pop. W. W. Cole, manairer of the park and of the Western Amusement company, les sees, was arrested and a warrant Issued for "John Doe, real name unknown." Cola appeared In court and gave bonds for hlm aclf and John Doa In the sum of 150 each to appear In court Wednesday, July S. to . answer to the charge of selling Intoxicat ing liquor without a license. The small supply of beer In the retail house connected with the office building In the nark was all that was seised by the ! sheriff, as that was all he found Mr. Bralley said he did not know how was granted by the Benson city council in a midnight session June 8. At that time the dissenters gave notice of an appeal from the council's action. The council; however, did not revoke the license and the sale of liquor has continued by virtue of the vote Issuing It, though It Is asserted that the clerk did not actually Uwue a li cense to Mr. Cole. Cole says, however, that he has all along believed that he was acting within the law and that he had a legal right to sell liquor In the park. 'I don't have to run this park. I can shut It up tomorrow 4f I want to and be ahead of the game." said Mr. Krug. "It has lost me lft,000 this year due to the bad weather, but the first big day of the year the few dissenters come In with their writ of prohibition." In.alt to tae Plcatekers; ' "I consider the serving of the Veareh war rant at Krug park Just at the height of our feitivlt! as a direct .Insult to the grocera and butchers and we most certainly resent It." said Harry Flicher, secretary of the Retail Merchants' association. "We were not violating the law, those grocera or butchers who drank beer did not know that It was sold Illegally, If such was the case, and there was no call whatever, as far as I see, for the serving of the writ during our annual picnic. "A reformer Is a reformer all the time, nst on the days when the Omaha grocers snd butchers have their picnic. If liquor was sold Illegally at the park on the day i f the plinlc it was sold illegal y for several weeks. Why could not Thomas have got In his work at some other time.

With a great many Krug said he waa positive It would not ex ceed M0 In value. From the retail house the sheriff strolled to the wholesale es tablishment on the grounds and was cast ing a .wistful eye on lt when Mr. Krug came. "Dont touch that. Mr. Sheriff; I will hold you liable on your bond," said Mr. Krug "That storasje house and contents belong to the Fred Krug Brewing company, not the Western Amusement company, and your warrant la to search the premises and property of the Western Amusement company. W. W. Cole, manager." .' The sheriff acknowledged the - fact and made his soturn on the warrant before , night. , i Qaoetloa-ot Validity of I.lceaee. The action of Davta la a continuation of the fight made by some of the residents of Benson against the selling of liquor at the park. Davis was ona of the remon rtrators who objected to license when It of our people the one day In the year they do not work Is the day of the picnic. They go tp the picnic to have a good time, some of them to drink a little beer, some of them go' with the intention of taking a drink and then Just In the middle of the fun this outrage is perpetrated. "Why, when I got back down town people aaked me what was the trouble at, Krug park. If the grocers and butchers got In a fight among themselves. I asked them what they meant and they said that they saw the officers going to the park and thought that anarchy had broken out. 80 you see how it goes. The grocera and butchers get a black eye when we didn't do anything at all.' "We will continue to slese liquor at Krug park as long as they continue to sell it there without a license," said Thomas Fri day. "In case three or four sieiures does not break up the sale of It we will get out an Injunction to prevent their selling It." Kumcry in Washington threatened to In validate the verdict and to void the Dollc; . Dy me stipulation all litigation la dismissed and Mrt.

Thomas Kilpatrhk & Go. Grocers and butchers and their clerks, together with their mothers, wives and sweethearts, locked the doors of their places of business yesterday and held an all day picnic at Krug park with ideal weather, the old rain hoodoo going to the rear. Over 8,000 admissions were sold dur ing the day and evening and the resort was crowded with throngs of happy pleasuro seekers. No special program of races and sports was prepared by the association manage ment for the amusement of the plcknlckers aa In other years, and they were left free to do as they pleased. The children rods on the merry-go-round and the circle swing, the young people took a ride on the roller coaster and through the "mill," the older people visited wonderland and amused themselves aa children In the palace ot crazy mirrors, and all witnessed the free acts, ate Ice cream from conea and drank red lemonade. It was one grand good time ; from early In the forenoon until the last car left at night and every picnicker had a good time. Finn's Greater Omaha band played a!l afternoon and evening and the vociferous applause given the music from .the first number. "My Country 'Tls of Thee," to the last, "The Star Strangled Banner." showed that It wss appreciated. Ten nurnbers were given by the band In each concert, but those receiving the heartiest applaute were the songs by the band's solo ist. Mlas Lydla Pallansch. Miss Pallansch has a remarkable voice and could be heard above all the din of the crowd and with the band accompaniment. Haw Drr I Asa. Most of the pioneers took along their din ners, but the crowd was so great that the little picnic groups could not get off In secreted groups by themselves. In the height of the festivities the arm of the law fell with a heavy thud and the sale of the beer and other drinks was shut off with one fell swoop, much to the chagrin of some of those who were having a little better time In thlr way than others, but the shadow of gloom did not last long. A bunch of "good fellows" got together and sang ' "How Dry I Am" and settled themselves to eat ice cream and drink pop and everything moved off aa before and tl e picnic came to a close In a blase of glory. II. Fischer, secretary of the Grocers and Butchers' association, waa enthusiastic over the picnic and declared that the at tendance was the largest they had ever had. "This is the fourteenth annual picnic of our association, but we have broken all records." said Secretary Fischer. "Eight thousand admissions Is 'going some,' I want to tell you, and It proves that It Is best to patronise home industry. Hereto fore It has generally been our custom to go to some outside point, but we decided this year that we had Just as good places for a picnic right at home and so held It here. It Is an' unqualified success, so much so that we have decided to bold another in the fall." Replying to numerous inquiries as t why the flaga on the big federal buildinr were -not at half mast Wednesday a . token of respect to the memory of forme President Cleveland. Colonel Rurrnwi custodian of the building said:, "Under treasury department rules we cannot half mast the flag for any person, no matter how distinguished, or upon any occasion without Instructions from the de partment and these aro always wired from Washington. There Is but ono exception to this rule. The regulation regarding flags reads: The national ennlgn will be displayed at half mast on Memorial Dav, Mav 3ft. on all public buildings undfr the control of the Treasury department, and at such times and on such buildings as mav at anv time be directed by executive cder. The wisdom of the regulation becomes apparent when we remember that endless complications would ensue if half masting the flags and draping the buildings were left to the discretion of the custodians in charge of the 0 odd federal buildings In this country. The department properly reserves the sole right to name the, oc casion upon which these tributes of respect shall be paid. The wire received by me Wednesday night was as follows: Washington, D. C, June 24. 1908. Cus todian court house and Postoffice. Omaha, Neb. In accordance with the proclamation of the president of the United Platen von are directed to display the flag on the public building in your charge at half staff for a period of thirty days, as a msrk of respect to the memory of the late Grover Cleveland, former president of the UnlttJ States. Beekman Winthrop, assistant sec retary of the treasury. A similar telegraph order was received Thursday morning from the War depart ment directing that the flags on the army building at Omaha be displayed at half staff for a period of thirty days.

Until the RALSTON project was launched, no interest or set of interests had put up any money or were making a united effort to se cure manufacturing enterprises. No particular lo cality was being pushed as a manufacturing district. What effort was made was scattered and ineffective. It certainly will be conceded that the strong organ ization of the' Ralston Townsite Company with its 200 stockholders is and will do more for th3 growth of a Greater Omaha than any one organization has. done since South Omaha was established as a packing ' center.
