THE BEE: OMAIIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER P. 1010. 3 ii n Nebraska ALDRKfl PAYS IllS RESPECT Republican Candidate for Governor ii After Dahlman. 13 CAUSTIC IN HIS CRITICISM Mat Pair Coatlaaes Draw Bis; Crowd Doailai f'oantr Again H'lii rirst for Collective Exhibit. Nebraska (From a fitnff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. N-b.. Sept. 8 (Special. )-Pn-ator Burektt and C. H. Aldrlch. candidate for governor on the republican ticket, spoke at the auditorium at the state (air this afternoon, the occasion belnR republican day. Chairman Husenetter of the repub llran atate commute, presided. While the crowd which henrd the democratic candi date yesterday waa much larger, the en thualaam of the crowd which today listened to the republican candldatea waa much more intenae. Senator Aldrlch defended the plank In the republican platform endorsing county op tlon; held up the legislation of the lff legislature as a sample of the way the re publican party keeps Its pledges and argued with hla crowd that to elect Mayor Dahl man governor would be to take Nebraska back to the frontier days. He told of the food work of the atate railway commission and of the benefits that had been received by the people who had appealed to this commission for relief from the wronm of the railroads. He digressed considerably rfom his set speech and once during his remarks, Breaking of iJahlman'a announce ment that he would veto a county option bill, paraphrasing Shakespeare, he suld: "On what has thla man fed that he hath become greater than all the people?" "On breweries," yelled someone In the crowd. Yea," replied Senator Aldrlch, "Senilis, Pabat and those other good patriotic Amer ican names." Threat Against Inlverslty. On another occasion Aldrlch accused Dahl man of having threatened the state uni versity unless the professors kept out vf politics. "Keep the professors out of politics and let the brewers run the state. I say the professors should lose their Jobs unless they do fight. They should fight and keep on fighting." Senator Aldrlch insisted that county op tion would affect no county utiles a ma jority of the voters In that county desired to vota It dry. If a majority ot the county favored aaloons, then the Slocumb law ap plied. A great portion of his speech waa devoted to an endorsement of county option and an argument In Us favor, together with a review of republican rule In the state. Senator Burkett talked on national Issues, holding uf the record of the republican party of the peat as a guaranty of what it would do In the future. Fair Htlll Draws Crowds. Another Immense crowd visited the fair today and saw the races. Some complaint waa made because the Burlington railroad refused to sell single fare tickets to the grounds, but Insisted that the purchaser should buy a round-trip. This forced the purchaser to return by train or lose his nickel. There was also com;ilamt at the way the crowds were handled ut the gates by the Burlington, one tralnload leaving the cars next to a train load which was pulling out tor the grounds.. However, no one was Injured. President 6bar.p of th traotton. company helped his ' men at the grounds yesterday and did his part toward packing the cars full and seeing to it that the signal to start was not given until every Inch of the running board was crowded and the space between the seats was Jammed. Douglas County Again Leads. This was the day whet many awards were made at the fair. Douglas county gain wort the prise for the best collective f xhlblt In the eastern division; Franklin in the central and Brown in tho western divi sion.

How Filipino May Vote A native of the Philippine Islands may become avoter in the state of Nebraska by declaring his Intention to become a cltlien of the United States and in due course ot time may become a full-fledged citlsen without renouncing allegiance to any prince, potentate or power. This Is the dictum of the federal bureau of naturallza 1 tlon aa expressed ' by Theodore F. Schmucker, chief of the Denver division. At the late primary a Filipino attempted to vote In thla city and was denied that light,' though he ad been allowed to ex ercise the franchise in an adjoining county. He at once applied to Theodore H. Berg, deputy clerk of the district court, who has charge ot naturalisation matters In this county. The man stated that he had sup posed himself a citizen and that it would , not be necessary for htm to take out na turalisation papers. He was willing, how ever, to pursue the lutter course If re-i quired. Mr. Berg waa not clear on the matter $ i and wrote the department for Information. If It was, necessary for the man to tuke out papers, he wanted to know from whom lie was to renounce allegiance, lie has Just received an answer from Mr. Schmucker In which the latter says: "I have never had a Filipino In this dis trict under consideration. iSert.on 30 of the naturalisation act seems to cover his case. He should make a declaration on the regg ular form, but Is not required to renounce allegiance to anybody. That portion of tne declaration can be left blank or reference made therein to section 30, act ot June la. X906." The section referred to reads as follows: All applicable provisions of the naturali sation laws of the l ulled States shall apply to and be held to authorise the ad mission to cltiseiiHlilp of all persons not clilxens who own permanent allegiance to the I'nited States, and who may become lesuieniB or any state or organ. it'd terri tory of the I'nited Mates, wltn the follow ing modifications: The applicant shall not be required to renounce allegiance to any foreign covei e;gnty ; he mail make his declaration of Intention to become a c.usen of the I'tiUnl Statea at least two years prior to his admission: and residence w.thln the Jurisdiction of the l nited S.ates, oalng such permanent allegiance shall he egaided as residence within the I'n.ted totatcs within the memiing ot the five year residence clause vf the existing law. 1 W. IlrVMn llealitua. have to r upon the bills, but Inasmuch as he received his place by appointment and slmplly owns stock In the lumber com pany, he doubts the legality of the ruling by the city attorney, but concluded that he could get alone- better by devoting all of his time to his own business than serving on the park board and being deprived of the right to sell material to persons who did work for the city. Hee Ahead f Travelers. O. M. Rtonebraker and Mrs. Stonebraker have Just returned from a tour of Europe, having spent several week across the ocean. The only Nebraska news we received dur ing the trip," said Mr. Stonebraker, "was through The Bee. I got copies of It In the reading roms at Edinburgh, Parts, Lon don and Berlin. When I saw The Bee at Berlin It was only nine days old. It cer tainly looked good to me. I saw no other American papers except fro mNew York, but they had no Nebraska news." Krho of Prise Fight. Fred Ludwlg was reminded of a visit he made to Beno. Nev., July 4. when ha re ceived yesterday a nlco purse, which he left In the fight city, it having been abstracted from his pocket by some needy person. Every card and piece of paper In the purse when It was taken were returned with it and everything was In first class condition. In the purse Ludwig had his Shrine card and it was through the Shrine that he got It back. The sender said he had found It In a patch ot weeds where It had been thrown evidently by the person who otole it. No, there was no money In the purse when It was taken. ."I had Just a short time before taken my money out of the purse and pinned It in my clothing. I had the purse in my hip pocket and had on an e vercoat buttoned up close. I realized when the purse was taken, for I felt some one raise my overcoat and go after the hip pocket, but In the crowd I was unable to protect myself or do anything. I could not even raise my hands. The pickpockets worked everywhere in gangs and when they crowded around a person that was the end of it." It Is said that every person from Lincoln, or at least five of them had their pockets picked. One party paid his hotel bill and had $87 In gold left in change. He kept this money In his hand and his hand In his pocket. That is, he kept the money about fifteen minutes. His hand was yanked from his pocket and the money came with it. The money was gone before the victim could even give a warwhoop. One Lincoln man had his pockets picked twice, though he lost no money, having taken his money out o fhls purse previous to the raid.

AI6Z5 THE SCHMOLLER Cl MUELLER PIANO COMPANY "Leaders for Cver 51 Years" TORE loom TTViO tore CLOSED OHJX THE REASON onmTielierl to close these branch stores and turn over the territory covered by these stores to our Wholesale Department, because we have 171 small' dealers In Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Colorado, who buy all their pianos and organs from us. It would not be fair to them to go into their territory and sell pianos, so the president of our company, Mr. Wm. H. Schmoller, who is in Europe now, cabled us to close the Plattsmouth branch, Dow City branch and Denisori branch, move every piano in these branch stores to Omaha and then sell them regardless of cost. A REAL OPPORTUNITY We are not offering a lot of ancient, worn out pianos as an inducement of bait to get you to our store. The pianos incuded in this sale are all fine, high-grade instruments of quality and we must sell every one of them because we must have room. Careful, discriminating buyers will soon pick oat the best, although every one is a most dosira ble piano, and a real bargain, because a $1,000,000 firm, established 51 years, guaran tees to stand back of these pianos and overy piano they sell.
