SI1AILESBERCER RAPS JIM
Tries to Discredit Hit Chummy Belt,
tiom with Mr. Bryan.
DENIES HE IS W. J. S BEST PA1
First Dense rat with Temerity
Kssek Oar James negers Say
Alma Mil Mast fiend for
Personal Rights.
Ashton C. Shallenherger of Alma, the
man whom Mayor Dahlman gave such a
fierce race for the democratic guberna
torial nomination. Is the first and only
man thus far who has the temerity to
come out and deny that , Dahlman Is
Bryan's most Intimate persons! and po
litical friend. Morever. he says that Bryan
did not send Jim Into Illinois to stump the
state; that the national committee did It.
but that It has no significance, anyway.
"Jealous." shouted a Jlmocrat down at
Dahlman headquarters when he learned ot
Shallenberger's declaration. "Jealous,"
echoed other Jlmocrats.
Bhallenberger even tried to discredit the
significance of that Asia telegram. He was
led Into a discussion of the Bryan-Dahlman
alliance against his will, but after he got
Into It he discussed it with a will and
much animation, If not animosity. It was
plain to be seen that the fact of Our Jim's
chummy relations with the Peerless Leader
has an Irritating effect on Colonel Bhallen
berger, as well as the rest of the Jack
ocrats. No, Mr. Bryan Did Not Call Him.
"Did Mr. Bryan ever ask you to take the
stump for him?" Mr. Bhallenberger was
asked.
"No, and I do not understand that Mr.
Bryan has asked Mr. Dahlman to take
the stump for hirrk The Invitation came
from the committed as I understand It,"
was the reply. "There la absolutely no
significance in this speech-making tour of
Mr. Dahlman in Illinois and this trip of his.
or the telegram Mr. Brysn sent him from
Asia, doea not In any manner ahow that
he (Dahlman) la Mr. Bryan's closest friend.
Mr. Bryan Is a good democrat and he Is
for the nominee, and in this Instance I
am the nominee.
'I reiterate, there Is nothing In this talk
that Jim Dahlman was Mr. Bryan's candi
date simply because Mr. Bryan congrat
ulated him when he was elected mayor of
Omaha. Why, Mr. Dahlman wrote me
congratulating me on my nomination. That
does not mean that I am Mr. Dahlman's
candidate far from it.
"I know nothing about this personal
rights Issue. I have been very busy and
have given the matter absolutely no at
tention. 1 do not wish to be quoted ene
way or the other."
Before his nomination Mr. Shalfcnberger
intimated that he stood on the same plat
form with the mayor, but now that he haa
secured the plum he forsakes the hand
that reared him and says that he "knows
nothing about this personal rights issue."
Mr. Bhallenberger stopped In Omaha on
his way to Lincoln, where he will be pres
ent at the making of the state platform to
day. While In the city he received the ova
tions ot a number of the faithful.
Will Have to Stand Hitched.
George Rogers, former president of the
Dahlman Democracy, and who confesses
to having under his protecting care the
personal rights plank which the Dahlman
men will attempt to get in the platform,
had a long talk with the gubernatorial
candidate aVd says Mr. Bhallenberger. will
have to stand for personal rights. Mr.
Rogers was the first Of the great un
washed to bow before the leader Monday
morning, but he Informed his followers that
he did not ask the great man where he
stood on personal rights because he fig
ured that tba candidate will have to be
for It. .
Candidate Bhallenberger waa evasive
when asked about the home rule proposi
tion, but to members of the faithful ha
said lie was for home rule, that Alma his
home town has home rule, and that Omaha
ought to have the same.
Asldo from George Rogers, the following
democrats all Jims will go to Lincoln
Tuesday to see that the platform is sound:
Thomas J. Flynn, county chairman and
president of the Dahlman Democracy;
Charles K. Fanning, member of the old
committee; F. T. Ransom, K. E. Howell,
J. M. Tanner, senatorial candidates; W. F.
Btoecker, candidate for representative; P. C.
Heafey, candidate for coroner, and Joseph
P. Butler, high in the councils of the party.

Kvldence that the Omaha and Council

city council, was presented Monday, when
a score of affidavits to sustain Its position
were filed in district court. The hearing

C0CKRELL RIVAL OF SAVIDGE
Jastlre of the Peare Will Cat Rates
on Marriages Daring the
Festival.
lxKk well to your laurels, Rev. Mr. Sav
Idge, for you have a rival!
"Do you, John Jones, take this woman
to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do."
"Do you, Mary Smith, take this man to
be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do."
"Here's your diploma. This way out. No
charge, thank you, with the compliments
of the king. Don't crowd, ladies and gen
tlemen; easy now; two at a time. Line
forms on this side. Next."
That's the way It will run In the office
Of Justice G. C. Cockrell at Fifteenth and
Farnam streets during tiro Ak-Sar-Ben fes
tival In Omaha.
Justice Cockrell has agreed to perform
marriage ceremonies free during the cele
bration of the king for all outside young
people who desire to be married In Omaha.
He will be at his offloe dally from 7 a.
m. until 6:15 p. m., and will answer calls
to the grounds promptly.
Justice Cockrell will unite sweethearts
and hand out hand-Illuminated certificates
printed on hand-mude prickly pear pampas
like a college president on commencement
day.
Thus Samaon has sent out the summons.
"Come to Omaha to Get Married," and it
W expected the King's Society for the
Amalgamation tof the Matrimonially In
cllned will be greatly enlarged and the
Judge's office become more popular by ad
ministering to tho wants of the populace,
helping to make the city a place where
Joy is unconflned and all Is as merry as a
marriage bell.
"There," said . Justice Cockrell, ss he
signed the agreement Monday. "If there
Is anthlng which cannot b' secured in
Omaha I don't know what it is.
"I hate to start In theoretically to cut
the population of Nebraska In half, but I
have not got a great while to hitch loving
hearts and will be glad to see them all
step lively."
As a matter of fact Judge Cockrell likes
to unite hearts. Investigation shows that
98 per cent of the marriage ceremonies
which he has performed have resulted
happily. He doesn't believe that young peo
ple should marry too soon, but that a man
should wait until he Is 36 and a woman
until she Is 22 at least, and realizes that
men are apt to have a knowledge of the
world when they are 2&, while some young
women may not have learned to wash
dishes until they are 22, while a woman at
20 knows scarcely anything.
POSTMASTERS PUT TO WORK
Convention Passe Resolution In Fa
vor of Parcel Post and Pos
tal Savin: Bank.
Postmaster B. F. Thomas nas returned
from Chattanooga, where he attended tho
national convention of postmasters of tho
first class.
"To postmasters It was an Inspiration to
hear the various subjects relating: to post
office affair disoussed by the officials who
practically pass upon every detail of our
offices,'1 said Mr. Thomas. "The conven
tion passed resolutions declaring In favor
of the parcels post and postal savings bank.
After a discussion of several hours the con
vention unanimously declared In favor of
both propositions and each postmaster is
to use his Influence in that direction. The
department officials were ail enthusiastic
for it and with this combination I can
afely predict at the coming session of
congress both of these important meas
ures, which are greatly needed by the
people, will be passed.
"In reference to the postal savings sys
tem I might add that here in Omaha we
have had a many as $30,000 of postal money
orders deposited in the Omaha office in
the name of the drawee. In the month of
August of the present year $C,300 ot such
money orders were drawn and thus far
today $600 of them have been drawn.
Delightful Time In City.
"Our stay In Chattanooga wa a delight,
ful one. The city has grown from a popu
lation of 1,500 during war times to 100,000
people. It is a clean city and all of Its
principal streets are well paved. It Is a
manufacturing center and has 236 different
articles manufactured there.
"I attended a political meeting addressed
by the candidates for president and vice
president of the Independent party. The
opera house was crowded and the enthusi
asm was Intense. Indications are, that the
independents will elect their candidate for
governor In Georgia. Republican sentiment
for Taft in Tennessee I encouraging and
many republicans Indicate the success of
the republican electoral ticket In that state.
"Nebraska was represented by every
first-class postmaster in the stetv, together
with a number of members of our state as
sociation. That fact gave us quite a stand
ing In the convention and a good represen
tation on every committee. Mr. Slzer of
Lincoln was elected second vice president,
which, according to tho rotation they are
now following, will make him president of
the association two years hence. The as
twclatlonv meets next year at Toledo, O.,
which city was selected after a vigorous
fight put up by the city of Seattle."

The third merchants' meeting given by
the Omaha Jobbers' and Manufacturers' as
sociation closed Saturday tvening. when
more than (SGO certificates were signed by
the Joint agi nt in charge of the passengr
bureau.
The number who bought tickets to Omaha
on the certificate plan by no means rep
resents the number who attended the meet
ings, the railroad rates applying only to
points within 1W miles of Omaha. Tne
Jobbers had two propositions, one ti re
fund fares in proportion to purchases and
the other the reduced rates. Many mer
chants also came, when they pleased and
paid their fare without regard to reduc
tions or Inducements.
Trade has been more than satisfactory
with the wholesalers who are preparing to
entertain thousands during Ak-Sar-Ut n and
offer some special line at their ware-
j houses.
Arrangements have been made to give

DISGUST AT FAULTY RETURNS
Diitrict Clerk Smith Proposes Elec
tion Commission to Regulate.
LET IT NAME AND REMOVE BOARDS
Wants I. err to Provide for nest Men
on Serb Work and Wonld Kn
foree Penalty llanse for
Gradlnsi (terrier.
"I em in favor of an election com
mission of three to appoint and remove
election boards and be entirely tesponslble
for the corduct of all elections," declared
District Clerk Smith.
The statement followed a discussion of
the glaring errors which have been discov
ered by the canvassing board In the count
of the vote by the precinct elections boards.
In one South Omaha precinct a mistake ot
sixty-seven was found In the official re
turns. Other candidates gained from twelve
to eighteen In the same precinct. Errors
of a lees serious nature have been found
In more than thirty of the precincts which
have been recounted. This condition of
affairs has caused considerable discussion
among court house officials as to the best
method of improving the character of pre
cinct boards.
The present board was appointed last fail.
Before the coming election new boards will
be named by District Clerk Bmlth. Kach
of the republican snd democratic county
committees recommends five names to the
district clerk, who selects from the ten the
five who are appointed precinct election of
ficers. "Thla year In order to helpclean up the
election boards I am going to post tho
names of those who are recommended by
the two committees." said Mr. Smith.
"The lists will be allowed to hang In a
conspicuous place and candldatea and citi
zens will be asked to look over the lists
and make objections to anyone whose name
appears on It. In this way I hope to be
able to weed out the Incompetent or dis
honest members and materially to raise the
standard.
Onajht to Have Good Men.
"We ought to have boards made up of Iho
beet men In each precinct. Even buy
men ought to be. willing to devote a day or
two to the service of their country on elec
tion boards. The law providing a penalty
for any person who refuse to serve on u
board ought to be enforced strictly.
"The present system of choosing elec
tion officials is bad because it divides up
the responsibility among the eighty or
ninety men who compose the county com
mittees. The tendency la for the party
committees to recommend politicians who
are willing to work for the $6 they get out
of It. instead of men who are competent
to fill the positions and do accurate work.
"The remedy would bo to have an elec
tion board of three members, to be paid for
their work, and to be given full power io
appoint or discharge board members. Thoy
should bo held strictly accountable for the
conduct of the elections as far as their ap
pointees sro concerned. In this way tho
responsibility would be concentrated and
better results would be secured."
