Everywhere though the city the republi
can workers have awakened to the need
for vigilance to hold their vote for the re
publican candidates, and while the 8he.ll
enberger and Dahlman crowds are hurrah
ing and hustling at meetings the republican
rard and precinct captains wilt be gotllug
n some energetic lloks of their own. Ni
formal republican meetings are scheduled,
aside from that of the Fifth war! club
and some other neighborhood Ra'heriiigs,
but personal visiting is to be done to Im
press on the voters the need of getting
to the polls on Tuesday, ea early as pos
albla.
.With the enormous blanket ballots to be
handled, voting Is bound to be very slow,
and the men who vote early will take no
chances on being held oft by a long line
after ( o'clock In the afternoon. Merely to
fold one of these ballots of democratic in
. ventlon takes as long as It ordinarily does
to vote. To handle one In the smell
fcboths Is going to be a burdensome task
'for most men, and those who put It off
find themselves blocked and shut out at
. toe end.
; There seems to be a disposition amonj
larse employers and business men generally
tti' permit their employes the necessary time
.to vote, as provided by state law. This Is
particularly true where the employers have
liad a chance to see the blanket ballot ana

.'The early voter makes sure of getting
Jii" Is their motto and Is likely to be
adopted by all factions, where sufficient
laterest has been aroused. Business men
who are not openly for Dahlman are to be
left in peace, as they are largely repub
lican in affiliation, but It Is doubtful if
any organization ever had in this county
such a complete list of their voting
strength aa the Dahlman men have in
their poeseeslon. Tons of printed matter
have been sent out. and a special batch
Df letters will go into- the malls Bunday

wards from every block, to get out the
palvlman rota 'Tom" Ftynn and his as
sistants are expressing supreme confidence
that their organisation will do the work
for Dahlman and make him the nominee.
After all the Votes.
From the line-up at the rooms In the
Omaha National Bank building It appears
conclusively that the Dahlman crowd has
the old ward and precinct captains of the
Omaha Democracy with it, almost to a
trian.

"Folks can get plenty of moisture In
butter, sometimes, even if they cannot 'get
It fro mthe .skies," remarked .'Internal
Revenue Agent Reed, as he proceed od to
wrap typewritten notations around a' Job
lot of tin cans on his desk. .. ' -
The cans contained samples from four
lots of tub butter, taken In charge by ono
of the field agents of the department, - at
Marshalltown, la., Friday, The tubs ' con
tained In all 1750 pounds of butter. On
examination the butter was found to con
tain from 17 to 21 per cent of moisture;
which Is Illegal. ' The moisture content of
butter may not legally exceed 18 per cent,
and the best butter contains only 9 to U
per cent I
In the case of a selsure of this kind, the
government collects a tax of 10 cents, a
pound on the butter and a manufacturer's
tax at tOOO . on each Individual lot -cf
adulterated stuff. In spite of this, some
man In the butter business are continually
taking chances. with Uncle Sam's field
agents. If they get away with a shipment
or two of the overloaded buter whether
cottonseed oil or water be used they ' can
afford to pay the $600 and the 10 cents a
pound and still be sway ahead' of '.the
game, with butter ' sailing along at . Its;
present high price. Some dealers have been
frank enougn to whisper this view to-government
men, and then have a good leaugh.!
. May Have Batter Back. . . t
Where adulterated butter is 'seized the
owners can reclaim It, after, paying J the
penalty, take out ths excess water or other
adulterant, under ths supervision of a gov-'
eminent agent, and then dispose of the
legitimate product; or they can 'Jot , it , re
main in the bands of ths government
agents,-when It will be sold after a-certain
time for what It will tiring. Carload
lots have been seised on the eastern snd
western coasts very recently, and ' only a
few days ago one carload of suspected
butter was released In Omaha, after proper
reparation had been made to the- govern
ment and the stuff worked over.
The overloaded butter seised at Marshall
town waa the product of creameries in that
vicinity. Internal Revenue Agent Reed
says the Omaha butter makers are all
complying pretty strictly with the ' law.
Other parties sometimes buy ths produot
of Omaha oreameriee and proceed to In
crease tho quantity by Injecting water or
cottonseed oil, but the legitimate creamery
men. take a band In stopping this practice
wherever they can locate the offenders. .
