DEGREE OF ONOR FIGHT ENDS

t Honor of Ik
Order.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, April 29.-8pecil.)-The city
campaign is warming up to the point
where the advocates of no license are hold
ing nightly meetings upon the streets,
while the advocates of the : o'clock
closing law appear to be conducting a quiet
campaign, with the evident hope that the
State Journal will save the town from
prohibition. The Journal blows hot for
prohibition when there is no campaign on
In Lincoln and looks through different
glasses when there Is, and when It car
ries three columns of notices of applica
tions for liquor licenses, as It Is doing
now.
Previous to the opening of the campaign
the Journal, with a great flourish of trum
pets, announced that no longer would it
permit Its columns to be polluted with an
advertisement from a liquor dealer. Then
its adherents In various churches met and
passed resolutions endorsing the high and
noble stand taken by the paper.
Now the Journal Is carrying nearly three
columns of notices of the application for
liquor licenses and for some reason the
matter seems to have been overlooked and
the sheet has escaped censure from the
people who recently endorsd It for Its
stand.
The two candidates for mayor seem to
stand for the same thing. Insofar as the
sale of liquor is concerned, though Malone
has made it clear that he Is for the 8:30
law. while Love stands for any legislation
the people endorse.
Deaxree of Hoaor Fight Settled.
The bitter fight between Mary A. Latky
and Mayme Cleaver over the position of
grand chief of honor of the Nebraska De
gree of Honor, Ancient Order of United
Workmen, appears to have been settled
in favor of Mrs. Cleaver by the dismissal
Mrs. Latky'a suit In district court. When
Mrs. Latky moved for the dismissal of the
suit Thursday morning, which she Insti
tuted to oust Mrs. Cleaver and have her
self declared grand chief of honor, her ac
tion was generally construed as a throwing
up of the sponge on her part.
Mrs. Iitky held the position of grand
chief for many years and was leader of
the faction that controlled the affairs of
the Nebraska grand lodge during that time.
At the annual meeting of the lodge last
spring the contest between the two factions
was so close that It was only after sev
eral ballots that Mrs. Cleaver was declared
I elected by a majority of one vole. The
election was contested by Mrs. Latky on
the ground that the vote cast by Dr. J. C.
Mosshart, former grand medical examiner,
was unlawful. She claimed that Dr. Moss
hart had no right to vote and that without
that vote Mrs. Cleaver was not elected and
the plaintiff as Incumbent was entitled to
hold over. The defendant showed that H.
M. Warring, who voted for Mrs. Latky,
has exactly the same qualifications as Dr.
Mot-sliart.
Fall Falls to Sober Hlra.
As a street car of the Interurban line
rounded the corner at Twenty-second and
r streets yesterday evening a man who
was standing on the rear step was thrown
' from the car and dashed over the bridge
; into the creek.
' The conductor was inside taking up fares
and he did ont notice the man fall. There
were no passengers on the rear platform
I and no one saw him thrown from the
, car.
Late In the evening the police station
was called up by some one living In the
neighborhood and It was said that there
was a dead man lying in the creek. The
water as It passed over the body was
streaked with blood and it was feared that
the man had met with foul play.
When the police patrol reached the spot
Jack Liebe.e, a well known character to
the Lincoln police,' was found, dead to the
wor d, btu abel to survive as soon as be
recovered from the stupor of a protracted
souse.

Trouble Among Horsemea. .
The race horse men of the Lincoln Road
ster club have carried their controversy
Over two sets of prize track harness to the
district court. Wllber W. Towle and John
snriner, two members or the club, claim
to have won the two sets of harness and
to have compiled with all the conditions
Imposed by the club lu the competition
The officers of the club declare that the
prizes were never properly competed for
and that the harness belongs to the club
Towle and Slulner swore out a writ of
replevin and got possession of the harness,
In justice court the judgment was In favor
of the members of the club and they re
covered the harness and 1 cent damages.
Towle and Bhriner have appealed to the
district court.
The suit Is aid to have badly disrupted
the racing club. At the trial In justice
court the plaintiffs were accused of bad
faith In bringing the suit and they made
counter allegations of attempts on the part
of the club to repudiate Its obligations.
The members of the club that are actively
opposing the suit are Addison Mcese, John

Talk mt Bryaa'a Caanrea.
Mr. Bryan's advocacy of a general law
to prevent the Issuance of a government
license in dry territory has created tome
talk around here regarding the effect on
Mr. Bryan as a member of the democratic
party. Some are of the opinion that it
will mean an Intense rivalry between Mr.
Bran and Richard L. Metcalfe, notwith
standing Mr. Metcalfe la the associate ed
itor of Mr. Bryan's Commoner. It has even
been suggested that Mr, Bryan has laid
the groundwork for his senatorial cam
paign by his statement, even though he
would have to put the "sting of ingrati
tude" into Metcalfe now to become a can
didate. During the legislature Mr. Bryan was
called upon, not once but numerous times,
to help out the advocates of a county op
tion law and to assist In the enactment
of other temperance measures. But to all
appeals for ..help he turned a deaf ear. His
answer to Mrs. Heald, head of the Wom
en' Christian Temperance union lobby,
when she asked him to sign a petition
asking for a submission of a proposed pro
hibitory amendment, was: "Wait for the
Initiative and referendum." Then, though
Mrs. Heald waited, Mr, Bryan failed to
pass the law.
Since ohtea fateful days Governor Shal-
lenberger has signed the 8 o'clock closing
law, contrary to his campaign talks, and
Metcalfe has come out in favor of county
option and against prohibition, wtih Shal
lenberger a senatorial candidate on the 8
o'clock platform; Metcalfe a senatorial pos
sibility on the county option platform, there
was little left for Mr. Bryan to do In order
to save himself with the temperance ele
ment of his party than to get In the game
In a way that would not make the liquor
element very wrathy, so ha did.
What Metcalfe's friends will say to Mr.
Bryan stealing Metcalfe's thunder Is yet
to be made public, but (here 1a a lot of
talk (hat If ti cornea to a showdown be
tween the two men the democratic party in
Nebraska would support eMtcalfe instead
of Bryan. y
In the campaign last year Mr. Bryan
received the aupport of the saloon men of
the state, ontwlthstanding his numerous
appearances In various churches and his
"Prince of Peace" lecture. But the fact
that the liquor Interests of the state as
sisted in the election of Governor Shallen
berger and were a big factor In carrying
the atate for Bryan, both men have
changed front, at least for the time being,
and all kinds of speculation la being In
dulged In as to hew it will all end.
One of the most conservative politicians
In the state this morning predicted Bryan
would again be a candidate for preaident
on the democratic ticket and in his cam
paign he would advocate national prohi
bition.. Money for Friendless.
The late democratic legislature failed to
make an appropriation ofr the maintenance
of the Home for the Friendless or for ths
pay of officers and employes of that in
stitution, thought It did crests a public
school for Indigent childien in the Home of
tha Friendless. 80 the Home for tha Friend
less will not be open for the friendless for
the nest two years, unleas aome one agrees
to run the Institution for nothing or there
Is created a deficiency.
Tha school for friendless children to be
opened in tho Horn for the Friendless
doea not begin until July, 1. when the law
takes effect, so there Is not even any ap
propriation to maintain this Institution
until that time.
The object of the law creating the school
in thai home was for tha sola purpose of
creating some jobs for a bunch of hunpry
democrats and through the Incompetency
of the guardian angels of the legiiaure
left the Home for tha Friendless high and
THE HOME OF QUALITY CLOTHES
dry. This bill was fathered by Miller of
Uncoln, the reform senator from Lancaster
county.
The act does not abolish the home, tt
leaves section f, which creates it. but it
changes the other sections so that the
school is created and the whole manage
ment placed In the hands of a board ap
pointed by the governor, instead of a board
composed of state officers elected by tha
people. The matter haa been turned over
to the. attorney geenral wtih the request
that he find aome way out of the hole.
In reply to an Inquiry from tha Stata
Railway commission regarding the pay
ment of demurrage charges, the attorney
general hi held that demurrage charges
on an Interstate shipment cornea under the
jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce
commission. The commission has a case
wherein tho charges were paid on an Inter
state shipment, bu. the shipper had not
paid the demurrage charges. hTe commis
sion desired to know If the demurrage
charges came under Its Jurisdiction. Tho
attorney general held it did not.

rumor, to locate thoae who took part In
the burning of the Italian bunk cars and
are said to have located quite a number
of the gang.
City authorities are pursuing a still hunt
also to locate members of the gang, and
it Is said complaints will be filed in a short
time. There Is considerable feeling still
existing against foreign laborers of sny
nationality and aome have been heard to
say the Greeks should be asked to move
out. It is not thought, however, that any
violence of any kind will take place.
An Appeal to the Voters of Omaha
We, tiie undersigned tax payers of the city, being thoroughly
familiar with the situation and having the best interests of the.
City at heart, would advise all voters to vote against the $6,500,000
Water Bonds, as we do not think they should be voted before th
case is finally adjudicated in the Supreme, Court of the United
States. The voting of the Bonds now would look like a surrender
and might have a serious influence against the City's case.
