C. Howe, Who is Caught
the Lake, is Shot in
the Legs.
at
T. C, Howe, who Uvea at Fourteenth and
Ijoeuat. atreeta, was eliot In the thighs
about t o'clock last night wHh a load of
buckshot near Cut-Off lake while on his
way home from seining In the lake.
Tha exact circumstances of tha shooting
are not definitely known, but according to
the story which the police have received
It la thought that the shooting was done
by two game wardens who were trying to
arrest Howe and some companion.
The wardens were Frank Brown, keeper
at the Rod and Gun club, and Frank Wil
liams, manager of the Williams messenger
service. ,
It is alleged that the wardens knew that
the men were seining in the lake and lay
In wait for them aa thoy went home.
When Howo and tha men with him ap
proached they were halted, but started to
run. They were fired upon and Howe fell,
but got .up and ran again, escnping. He
went tn his home and afterward to th3
office of Pr. I,ynch. who" took him to the
Omaha General hospital, where lie was
operated on. Twelve buckshot were taken
from his thighs, hut tt Is thought his
wounds will not prove fatal unless Infec
tion should appear.
Both wardens and the all"ged seiners dis
charged their guns, according to Informa
tion secured by the police detectives, who
Investigated the affair Friday morning.
The ahootlng was wltieoed by the con

WASHINGTON. April :. (Soctal Tele
Si a m 'The D'L'urini'nt of Agriculture
will do everything iossible to make the
cui.ilng National Corn exposition at Omaha
n sticc." s;d !?( ictai y Wilson to C.
i. H iMWHti r of The live today. Mr. llose
water had a long Interview, not only with
Pei retiiry Wilson this morning, but witli
Assistant Secretary Hayes, looking to se
eming tho Department of Agriculture ex
hibit arranged for the Seattle exposition
t.i be put off at Omaha during the corn
exposition next December. Secretary Wll .
son stated It would possibly be Impossible
to erect the denatured alcohol still which
was on exhibition at the corn exposition
last )rar because of the failure of con
gress at Its last session to include an ap
propriation for this purpose. He said the
bureau of chemistry had no sum of money
to expend fur this purpose and. In fact,
the bureau hud be"n considerably curtailed
In the annual budget for the agricultural
department and it would therefore be Im
possible to make the exhibit unlesa other
specific provisions were made to cover It.
However, as far as the agricultural ex
li bit for Seattle was concerned he would
be only too glad to have the cars carrying
the exhibit stopped at Omaha and dis
played there during the corn exhibition.
"I realise the very Important character of
the work being done by the National Corn
exposition," said Secretary Wilson. "It
has done a great deal to arouse the Interest
of the fanners not only In the growing of
corn, but in the arrowing of cereals in
general I.a.st year's success nf the corn
exposition demonstrated to the Department
of Agriculture its eduatkna1 advantages
and such an Institution ought to be sup
ported, as it will be. by the government
and especially by tiie department over
which I have tins honor to preside."
Assistant Secretary Hayes, whose stand
ing as an educator along agricultural lines
Is of tha very best, was equally emphatic
In pledging tlie; department's aid wherever
possible In making the second annual corn
exposition In Omaha a success. Prof.
Hayes suRjtested giving a picture show,
among other things, which will show the
work beink done by the Department of
Agriculture, not only In stock breeding,
but in seed raising, and, lie Btated to Mr.
Rosewater, that during the summer a
series of ribbons would be made Illus
trating the work of the department, which
might be used In a series of lectures along
the lines Indicated.
Mr. Rose-water, who Is accompanied by
his wife, were guests of Senators Burkett
and Brown at luncheon today at the Capi

tor and Mra. Burkett.

Voters crowded Metx hall at Thir

hall. Twenty-second and Cuming streets;
every chair was taken snd people were
standing as late as 10:30 last night, when
John P. Breen. republican nominee for
mayor, arose to speak.
Mr. Breen and Harry B. Zimman were
the principal speakers at these two meet
ings, Mr. Breen speaking first to the
Metz hall gathering and Mr. Zlmman
last, and Mr. Zimman speaking first to
te crowd In Wolf's hall and Mr. Breen
last. Judge Ben S. Baker, Judge Uoula
Berka, S. A. Searle, II. J. Plnkett and
candidates were the other speakers.
- "I have . no use for te evangelist of
all restriction on the one hand or for
the bum and the rounder on the other."
declared Mr. Breen In answering his
critics who have circulated the slander
that he Is a prohibitionist, "and I main
tain there Is a middle ground for all
men. I do not believe that a man should
be put to bed and be compelled to stay
there all day Sunday and not ba allowed
to get out and enjoy himself in his own
way and without doing harm to his fel
low man. I know enough about law and
order to promise you that if t am elected
mayor of this great city that we will
not have a bum town of bums or a Uriel
and straight-laced town where Puritanic
sentiment will prevail."
Democrats tor Prohibition.
Quoting from an interview with Dick
Metcalfe, editor of Bryan's Commoner, in
which "the right-hand man of the demi
god of the democracy" declared that in
two years from now tho democratic party
In this stsle will champion county option,
Mr. Breen showed his hearers that the re
publican party Is and always has beon
the party of personal liberty. Mr. Met
calfe said the democrats would have to
take up prohibition because the south Is
doing so, and the west Is adopting re-J
democrats see anything that appears to
be feasible and on which there is a
chance of winning, they seize It. whether
It Is sound, wholesome or desirable.
"But there Is a broader and higher view
In this camiaign and all does not rest on
a man's appetite or his stomach." said
Mr. Breen in closing. "I have been asked
to say where I stand. This I can do in
one sentence: I am opposed to that brand
of democracy which has a Jim Dahlman
for Its chief exponent. There ought to be
some civic pride In this city and that we
cannot have as long aa we have the type
of men in power that now rule Omaha."
Record of the Administration.
Mr. Zimman, In ts talk to the voters,
tool occasion to delve into the record of
the present administration to some length
and to show Its failure to keep pledges
made three years ago and the lack of
foundation it has for tha claims It makes
for another period of power In municipal
affairs.
"The democrats claim to have saved the
taxpayers money, but how can they truth
fully say this when they have levied more
than ever before?" asked Mr. Zimman. He
then went on to show that the last levy
for general purposes in the city is S20O.0OO
greater" than two wears ago, and 1160.000
greater than during any republican year,
and this in face of tbe fact that valuations
are, higher now than a few years sgo. He
also told of the members of the adminis
tration confessing that they had not the
slightest idea how the payment of some
old bonds had borne about, though the tak
ing up of the bonds is made a basis of
one of the claims of the democrats for reelection.
"But these bonds, my friends, ware paid
off by tha operation of the scavenger tax
law. enacted by a republican legislature
and enforced by a republican city treas
urer," he said.
The speaker exploded tha claim that more
sewers and more paving has been laid by
the democrats by showing that the admin
istration is not responsible In the lea st.
for the reason thst tha property owners
pay for the work. Also E. J. Cornish, the
republican member of the Park board, and
not the democratic administration. Is re
sponsible for the munificent gift of Mrs.
1evl Carter, whereby the city has ac
quired the new park. Tbe failure of the
democrats to get dollar gas and their utter
Inability to fulfill any party pledge with
out the seventh vote of the republican
member of the council were alao shown by

journal of the council proceedings.
Democrats Tnrn on Pled area.
"Are the democrats sincere In their prom
ises when, a week before election, and In
spite of their platform, they vote against
their pledge and the people?" aald Mr.
Zimman. "I say they are not. Three
months ago they voted against the occu
pation tax ordinances, but I thought I
would give them another chance last Tues
day night to vote In accordance with their
party pledge. They all voted against It,
with one exception.
"I have a good right to ask you to vote
againft the democratic nominees who have
played hand and glove with the corpora
tlona and worked in season and out for
them and against the people."
Stredlsh Renabllcna In I.tae.
Swedish-American republicans turned out
In numbers for the meeting at the Fon-
tanelle club rooms last evening, the as
sembly being under tha auspices of the
Swedish Republican league.
The spirit of the meeting was pro
nouncedly enthusiastic and optlrolstlo and
predictions of victory for Breen and the
other candidates on the ticket met with the
heartiest approval and plainly coincided
with the convictions of the auditors.
President A. W. Johnson presided and
Introduced first Dr. E. Holovtchiner, candi
date for alderman In the Second ward. Fol
lowing him 8. A. Searle contrasted the per
sonnel of the republican and democratic
tickets, comparing the qualifications of
candidate with candidate. Most strees he
laid on the comparison of Breen and Dahl
man. "The crest of the democratic wave has
passed." Dr. Holovtchiner said. "Their
campaign has spent Its force and. they
know it themselves. They know as well
as we do that Omaha Is utterly weary of
Dahlman and Dahlmanlsm and Is about to
repudiate both."
Other speakers of the evening were John
Helgren, candidate for comptroller; Frank
Anderson, editor of the Posten, who spoke
In Swedish; Dr. A. Johnson,' and George W,
Craig, candidate for city engineer. Both
Helgren and Craig were accorded an
enviably warm reception.

British Budget Will Tax
Wealth and Liquor Trade
UotfDON, April 30. -Accumulated wealth
and "the trad?," which the liquor business
Is popularly called In the liberal ajovern
ment's budget, which David Lloyd-George,
chancellor of the exchequer, presented In
the house of commons today, are made to
bear the burden of the 15,7U2.O00 lT8.810,000)
deficit of the fiscal year Incurred by tha
old age pensions and the race with Ger
many for Dreadnoughts.
"Socialism and confiscation," the wealthy
classes are already crying, and a few are
clutching at the hope that the house of
lords, which represents these classes, may
throw out the budget entirely, but this is
improbable. Increased Income taxes, death
estates and legacies duties, a tax of 20
per cent on future increase In the value
of lands due to the enterprise of the com
munity, taxes on motors, to be devoted to
keeping up the roads, and stamp taxes on
sales of property are the principal levhs
upon wealth.
The government gets Its revenge for the
reliction recently by the lords of lis
licensing bill by Increasing the taxes on
some classes of public houses and the
customs excise duties on spirits. A tax
of 3 pence on 1 on sales of liquors in
clubs Is also ImpcseU and this Is likely to
ei icgonlze both tha liquor Interests and
the working men. On the other hand, the
latter are placated by provisions niude for
labor exchange for the unernplo ed and
the promise of an industrial Insurance
scheme.as well as the sallslactlon of
knowing That the Uch are tj carry the
greater share of the'load.
The new taxation bears heavily on cor
porations. The only features affecting the
United Stales are the Increased tobacco
tax, a tax of three pence per gallon on
petrol and heavier stamp dultts on st.jek
transactions.
"The maddest budget ever Introduced."
Sir Frederick George Banbury lerniod It.
during the course of a tpeech in wlikh
he declared that the new budget Included
every fad on the face of the eartii.
Austin Chamberlain denounced It for Im
posing so large a proportion of the nation s
burdens on a few people by different de
vices. John Redmond. leader of the Iriah party,
asserted thatthe whisky tax Imposed an
other burden "on Ireland, which the nation
alists would resist by every means.
