"Above are the men wbo have been
recommended by the citizens' union for

misunderstanding, It Is deemed wise to

sleeting them.
In the first place, tha entire registra
tion of the city was (one over and a list
made of those wbo seemed most eligible.
To this was added all candidates who had
filed 'and all men suggested upon the
ballots sent In by the members of the
union.
"Tha greatest difficulty was experi
enced In selecting only seven from the
multitude of able men at hand.
"Tha executive committee wishes it
distinctly understood that the absence
of a same from tha above list does not
Indicate that the members of the com
mittee did not think such men qualified
for tha posit toe. Such commission means
that In tha final balanos of uori tending
forces, soma ether man seemed more
favorable.
"It la mora' Important that -the city
ef Omaha be weU governed thaa that
the ambition of any one tnaa be real
ised. Tha men who desire to control the
affairs of this city for their own, gain
will, not allow personal friendship to In
fluence their votes. Tha men who de
sire this city to be governed In the In
terest of the public ought to be equally
ajufled. - -
Concentration of the selfish voters re
quires concentration of the unselfish.
The dttsens union, by its action, offers
an opportunity for tha latter. We ask
the voters of this city. In csrefully and
Impartially weighing this ticket to place
public Welters ahead of personal choice."

Howell Tells of
Threats to Keep
Witnesses Away
Investigati. ' of the federal grand jury
which conven , next month probably will
not last more thaa three days, accoru.ng
to United States Attorney Howell, al
though he declares he expects at lerjt
twenty indictments.
With the exception of some white slave
cajes, the investigation will be simple
Attorney Howell has his evidence and hi
witnesses practically ready no to go
before the jury.
At least sixty witnesses will be called,
some of whom already have been sub
poenaed. Of these the United States at
ton.ey saysjie wants to be sure, having
done a little sleuth work and found that
attempts have been made at Intimidation
and coercion.
Now that these witnesses have been
served, should those who have been
threatening them continue It they are In
excellent position, the attorney says, to
be convicted and sent to the Leavenworth
penitentiary for Interfering with or
thwarting the ends of Justice.
In the white slave cases particularly.
ha declares, attempts to intimidate and
coerce witnesses have been made.
Two Families at
Bellevue Have
Narrow Escapes
The recent thaw, assisted by sn Ice
gorge in the Papplo creek below Belle
vue. has turned a flood over tha botton
lands adjacent to tha creek and hundreds
of acres are Inundated. Fences In some
places are under water. The rise was
sudden and several families In tha vicin
ity were surrounded in their homes be
fore they realised tha situation.
An aged man by the name of Brokaw
and his wile wars left tor a day and a
half without food or fire, and When dis
covered and taken away In a skiff they
were nearly exhausted, Tha water in
the house had forced them to take refuge
on a table.
Another family living on the bank of
the creek Improvised a raft out of planks
and log and launched out on tha swollen
'.orrent
Reaching tha Burlington bridge over
tha creek the mother and two boys made
a desperate leap from the raft as it was
being whirled under tha bridge, caught
tha timbers and straggled to safety over
a spot where the water la twenty feet
deep.
