edge of the Situation.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Oct. l.-(8pcclal.)-Tlie re
ceipt at the state house touay of copies
of Kxlsar Howard Columbus Telegram
with Ita suggestion to O. M. Hitchcock to
withdraw from tho democratic ticket and
thus iav a public discussion of his public
lccord exlclted considerable talk and com
ment. Judge Howard publishes the democratic
state ticket without the name of Mrs.
Hitchcock thereon. In giving his reasons
for leaving the place vacant, he says:
"We have been hoping that Mr. nitch
I Cock would withdraw from the ticket and
thus forbid the necessity of a public dis
cussion of his record, which discussion
might Injure the deserving candidates on
the democratic ticket. It shall not be our
part to make public the hideous details
concerning the record of Mr. Hitchcock's
dealings in this matter of state, Per.ia;is
the record may not be made public during
the campaign. But, having knowledge of
that record, the Telegram, in the exercise
of a sacred duty toward the cause of good
i citizenship, must decline to support Mr.
Hitchcock.
"We are aware that this action on our
part will bring down upon our head the
clubs ot -ome democratic editors who hold j Leaving Stella the party stoppe
duly to the party higher than duty to the I Shubert and held a meeting at i o'
i
state. We have taken everything Into con
sideration. We yield to the call of a pub
lic duty, no matter how serkius may be
the effect upon the Telegram and its
editor. We ask no man's sympathy In
this flKht, If he should believe that our
opposition to Mr. Hitchcock Is personal,
but we do auk the sympathy of every man
who places the duty of the cltlxen higher
than the duty of the partisan. We know
that when the men of Nebraska shall know
the record as we know It, they will desert
the cause of the candidate as rats desert
an unseaworthy ship. Some will ask why
we do not make public the record. We
reply that we do not have permission to
make It public at this time. We received
the story and the proof of it under the
seal of secrecy. Perhaps the seal may be
broken tomorrow perhaps next week
perhaps the week following.
"Perhaps Mr. Hitchcock may notify the
atate committee that he has withdrawn
from the ticket, and then It will not be
necessary to publish the shameful story."
Democrats Criticise Peerleaa Ones.
Democrats In Lincoln are very much put
out at the attitude of William J. Bryan
and Richard L. Metcalfe In regard to
Mayor Dahlman and the two men are
charged with telling only half the truth
ae tfcey relate the work of the Grand
Island convention. Both men Insist, so
theae democrats are charging, that they
are freed from supporting Dahlman be
cause the Grand Island convention re
fused ' to adopt a motion to denounce
county option. As Dahlman opposes county
option Bryan and Metcalfe" say he la out
of harmony with his party. The demo-
! era ta 'who are criticising Bryan and Met
calfe, My that while the democratlo con
vention refused to denounce county option
. by a larger vote It turned down Mr.
Bryan's motion to endorse It These demo
crats Insist that Dahlman is more in
harmony with the democratlo platform
than tbey are.

Party Escorted Through County by!
Humboldt Republican Club
and Band.
FALLS CITY, Neb., Oct. l.-(Specil.)-A
new Innovation In political warfare was
shown In Richardson county Friday, when
an escort of a dozen automobiles filled

strong, and the well-known Humboldt
band met the Burkett-Hay ward auto
party, which la touring the First con
gressional district in the Interests of the
republican ticket, at Stella and escorted
It through the county.
Great enthusiasm was shown all along
the route. People flocked to the doors and
waved a welcome to the passing train of
automobiles Children rushed to the road
side and clapped their hands In glee as
the gaily decorated cars passed swiftly
by, and busy farmers in the fields waved
their hats, deeming to catch the enthu
siasm of the occasion.
Meeting the auto conveying Senator Bur
kett and Colonel Hay w ard at Stella, the
Humboldt contingent made a lively ap
pearance as they rolled into the town.
Each auto had on Its rear seat a banner
inscribed with some Inscription and bearing
pictures of the candidates. Some ot them
read:
"Humboldt Republican Club."
"For Governor, Vote for C. H. Aldrlch, a
Clean Man."
"We Endorse Hay ward for Congress."
"The Republican Party Stands on lis
Record."
' Support Burkett for Senator."

In which enthusiasm was shown at every
point. Everybody seemed to catch the
pplrit of the Humboldt boosters and the
speakers were often compelled to atop on
account of the bursts of applause from the
crowds listening to their arguments in
favor of continued republican rule.
The party rolled into Falls City about
t o'clock in the evening, and the enthusi
asm carried by them caught the people
here and the stroets were soon crowded
with a large throng of people. Immedi
ately after supper the Humboldt band
gave a concert on the court house grounds

the large court room was filled to over

Reflection of the tremendous satisfaction

CHILDREN'S DAY AT CARNIVAL
Little Folka storm the Gronnda In
Joyous Mob.
Children's day at the carnival.
For many days preceding the little folks
have been talking and dreaming of the fun
awaiting their entry within the gates. The
noonday meal had no hold on their affec
tions as against the notion that they might
be late for any smallest happening likely
lu occur on the King s Highway.
Jack and the Beanstalk had been sup
planted In the Juvenile mind by Jack
Justice. Talk by the leaders touching his
slide for life from the cornice of the Bran
dels theater building had put anticipation
on keen edge, and when he bit his teeth Into
the leather Saturday afternoon he had an
audience of observers who were hla ardent
admlrera. The slide over, battalions ot
youngsters took possession of the grounds.
The price of admission had been reduced
to 6 cents for their benefit, and It waa a
poor kid, Indeed, who cuuld not dig up a
nickel. Of course, the tmalier ones had
also to produce a guardian, but thla per

for them at the fall carnival. They over
flow everything, they miss nothing. They
have Inexhaustible comment, and unfill

are for popcorn, Ice cream, candy, crack
erjack and other Indigestible saccharine
delights; but they are also one large eora-

J. VV. Turtle, traveling passenger agent
of the Union 'Pacific, whose home Is In
Des Moines, arrived in Omaha Saturday
morning with a number of thrilling tales
of the soldiers In the Iowa town.
"Des Molnee people are more than en
thusiastic over the soldiers there and are
anxious to get them to come there attain.
The difference between seeing the troops
on parade and really seeing them doing
army work produced an Impression on the
minds of most of the population.
"The manner In which the troops build
a bridge over a supposed stream and then
blow it up when they are Hurced to re
treat back over it Is, I think, the most
Interesting part of the whole exhibition."
These same troops which the Dea Moines
people haOe been seeing for the last week
o im in wmana lor an tne week com
mencing October 2 and will give a number
of exhibitions for the benefit of the pub
lic of Omaha.
