New Building t Cost 17.000,000," In the ffirst column of the first page of The Sun day Bee. In th second column of lh edl- ! torlul page we find th editor bursting out with his madness by cursing our present mayor and member of the legislature merely because they ar democrats. The dltor of The Bee evidently find himself several laps behind wlt!i his candidates In the present race of the city campaign, and th democrats with their broncho-busier in the lead, of course. Is enough to make any republican editor mad; after failing to persuade his reader and the voter of Dougla county last fall to send a repub lican delegation to Lincoln, and on top of that, also to fall In the republican city ticket. It's enough to make any one mad. and you know It is always the esse when any one gets angry, he will scold and curse and swear, and In his anger will say things of which a man of Intelligence usually is ashamed of when hi aggrava tion I over with. Of course. It Is hard for oir republican editor to put up an argument against a democratic candidate for mayor, when there Is no material on hand for such an argument, and he la obliged to scour th country over to tnak a showing after long search with a eoupl of letter that say nothing, and to tnak people believe that such "bosh" a wa added by hint will convince the voters of our city to vote for the set of gentlemen that ar on th rpublkn ticket. Don't you see that the voters of Douglas county did not want your candidates for the legislature? And they permitted themselves to be misrepre sented Id the lata democratic legisla ture by a delegation mad up of "crook, gratters, incompetents, corpora tlo i cappers, and coarse roustabouts." Now, weren't you mad when you wrote that, and don't you see that the people Of our city recognize In you th loser in the present city campaign? You nor the republican candidates need offer themselves to restore the good nam of Omaha. Tha democrats began to restore this nam three years ago, and hav also made a success In that line and if the re publicans can let us work thro more year then the tetoratlon will be complete, and then the voters of Omaha will have fully learned that the democratic party fter all Is the party that with success can boom and restore th good name of Omaha. In the three years that "Jim" has held the whip-hand Omaha' name ha almost been a byword from one end of the country to th other. These are your words; good for you and good for Omaha. Can you con ceive of betlei i?"ertlsing? You need not let the pc?! of Omaha devote time, efforts and money year in m?A out for cementing friendly relation with the cltle and town in tributary trade territory to make Omaha stand for. the bet in business, art and culture; you need not urge three efforts If you will let th city have three more years of prosperity under a democratic mayor and council, so that you may have that building boom kept up, and give you a chance each year and three years from now to nam the turn of $7,050,000 In buildings In Omaha; also let u hav three more year like the last three were; we aJded to our city's numerous In dustries and widened It scope aa a market town. Then we'll need no mors of the cement you pak of. as th wealth produc ing farmers will give ua the preference over all the cities along the Missouri river, as qualltv and price will talk louder than works. All this can be accomplished by having a dtmociatlc cowboy, broncho busting mayor. Therefore. Mr. FMiror of Th Bee. don't let the people ee that you re a hard loser. With kind regard. I am. W.

Every where In the city It !s claimed that th Bohemian Voters or tolld for Mr. Daht mn because he favors an open saloon week day or Sunday, day time or night time. Of course, Mr. Breen Is branded a pro hlbtlonlet by the Cemocratie paper, "Oavet," and Ita editor, and there seems to be a tendency of that paper to Impress Its readers tha'. If Mr. Breen should b electee our people will be deprived of their favorite bnverege. Of course, any n man knows that the only way to In vit prohibition In city or state Is to defy all law regulating the liquor traific. So it appears to any man who has the least knowledge of the present situation, so that th election of a gentlemuti w ?'r ' ' mn s cllber would. In a hort time, have the tendency if bringing on Just what w are now fighting agalnst-prohibltion. The Bohemian people ar not all Dahlm- electors, and the Dahlman meetings, suet J ! meeting of Baturday night ami Bt. Sunday. I a straight Insult to every in telligent Bohemian voter. Tea. Mr. Dahl man, our people can vote right, without the presence of your beer at every meet ing. While such low-down method may appeal to omu of our people, those ar adly in the minority, aa must of us can listen to any good speaker without being hired to do so with a glass of beer. But our people remember well that when th Brewer' association had their meeting last year Mr. Busch spok In favor of a saloon that would obey th law, a well regulated salon that would only be open at hours whenvr th law permit It being open And all th brewer voiced their entlment that only a respectable and law-obeying saloon can defeat th prohibition move ment, so that all th wld-opn town talk of Mr. Dahlman and hi henchmen la only a bunco game, and I hope that the majority of our people will ee It In that light.

Baldrtge and numerous can didates addressed a large gathering of col ored voters, members of tha Foraker club, at Osthoff's hall. S13 North Sixteenth street. Monday night. The speech of th candidate for mayor especially created the greatest enthusiasm among the colored voter, and at his Introduction he wss greeted by tumultuous applause, many standing and waving their hats and hand kerchiefs, while the Omaha Military band added music to th demonstration. Mr. Breen called attention to th demo cratic promise of three years ago and their failure to make good on a single one of them. He recalled to the voter the fact that the democrats had promised dollar gas. which had failed to materialise. He called attention to tha promise of the pres ervation of the personal liberties of the people made by the democrats, and found the answer In the enactment of the S o'clock closing law. Desaocrat and ProklMllon. Mr. Breen read the Interview given out by Richard L. Metcalfe, in which Mr. Met calfe (aid the democratic party must stand for county option in the campaign of two year hence, and the prophecy of Metcalfe that the democratic party, nationally, would be the party of the temperance ad vocates. He also read from the Metcalfe Interview the statement that the signing of the daylight saloon bill would not sat isfy the advocates of temperance, so, there fore, the democratic party must advocate county option, and he predicted, said Mr. Breen, that the liquor question would be the Issue in tit coming fight over state office. Mr. Breen essured the members ot the club that the liberties of the people would be conserved by th republican party. The democratic party, he said, had proven Itself absolutely unequalla ihe task. It Was th republican pay' which enacted the Blocumb law, back in and kept It Intact without Important amendment until the late democratic aggregation assembled In Lincoln and changed It while promising to do Just the opposite. Howard H. Baldrlge gave the voters a word of encouragement by telling them the republicans hsd gone Into the campaign united nd harmonious, while the demo crats were badly divided and were fighting among themselves. He called attention In the broken pledges of the present city sd mlnlstrstlon, and If the administration were continued, history would repest It self and the record of the next three years would b a story of more broken promises. Though Mayor Dahlman, he said, mav have been a good cowboy and had don his work faithfully on the range, this was no Indication that he had the ability to make Omaha a good mayor. The colored voters of the city should stand by the republican party's candidates, he said, be cause It had been the republican party which had stood by the colored man, and a republican president who had torn th heckle from them. latereat of the Colored Mis. H. J. Plnkett, colored, talked at length on the duty of the colored people of Omaha to assist In the work of making th government near a possible Ideal, and he predicted a great majority of the colored people would vote the republican ticket, notwithstanding the clalma of the democrats. All of ths csndldates for other offices wer at the meeting and delivered short talks. Oeorge W. Illbler presided at the meeting and made a short speech, telling the members of th club that It was their duty to stnd loyHy by the republican candidate In the interest of a better Omaha. The Breen Boosters' quartet sang several songs. Judge Calls Jury Foreman to Room, butNothingDoing Sutton Want. Talk with Man When Jurori Annonnce They Can not Agree.

Sold by all druggist. Most of the time of the councilmen in th meeting of the committee of the whole vsterdv afternoon was taken up In dis cussing the proposed storm sewer in the extreme northwestern part of the clt , ano tho kind of brick to b used in sidewalk construction. Councilman Endres has been extremely anxious to get something done on th sewer to extend northwest from Thirtieth and Sorague streets for a considerable dl tance. He made 111 maiden pcech in th council chamber a week ago in support of th sewer and called his colleagues' at tention to the approaching election, but as the funds are depleted the sewer question has been put off from week to week. Ac tion has been postponed again for another week. A mistake was made in advertising tor bids for sidewalk construction and the kind of brick to be used wa not specified. This was threshed over for a half hour or more, but final action was deferred until rnnlvht. The council rejected th offer of the Bunson 8moke Consumer company, fearing there was a "nigger in the woodpile" somewhere and that the city might get into trouble. For the sake of Introducing th consumers Into Omaha, the company offered to Install one on the city hall stack free of cost, but with the proviso that the city should pay it at the end of one year the cost of the coal saved during the period. The councilmen did not see how they could determine how much coal the consumer would save.
