JOHNSON STOPS IN OMAHA
California Bull Moose Feeling Fine
" , Over the Convention.
MANY ORATORS TO GO FORTH
RoaaeTelt Will Campalft-a in West

. te East. "
Governor Hiram w; Johnson of Cali
fornia, nomine for vice president of the
new progressive, party, accompanlel by
former Governor Pardee, Alexander. Gor
lon, ,H. W. Brundridge, John H. Hayes,
George a Daniels. Charles M. Llssmer
and other California progressives to the
convention held at Chicago, were west
bound passengers on. Northwestern No. J
and after remaining at the Union station
a .short time left for home, over the
Union Pacific,
As Governor Johnson stepped down
from the Pulimao, he' looked around In
an effort to locate some Nebraska pro
gressives, but as there were hone on
hand he turned his "attention to ' the
newspaper men, remarking; "This is a
glorious morales and . it seems good to
get out into the west again.
"The Chicago ' convention was one of
the .most remarkable gatherings ever
teld. It was riot political convention
in any , sense of the ''wprd. It was a
mingling of intensely Interested men
and women from all over the country,
gathered there for the purpose of solving
the question of doing the most good to
the greatest number and . solving the
problem of the future of this great
country."
. Will lavade Every State.
Asked as to the plan of the bull moose
campaign. Governor . Johnson replied
that it had not been completely formu
lated,' but that It would be carried on
with vigor until the close of the polls in
every state on election night. Added the
governor: . ' ,
,, "Without reward, or. hopet of reward,
during September and October from 1,000
to 1,600 orators and public men of both of
the old parties will campaign the states,
preaching the doctrine advocated by the
platform and principles enunciated by the
progressive platform. Mr. Koosevelt will
be .in the field, probably doing much of
his work! In the west and the central
west. I expect to do a large portion of
my campaigning in the east, though, prob
ably early in September I will make a
campaign through Nebraska, speaking In
Omaha' and perhaps elsewhere in the
state. . There will be little need of orators
out with us. ' The Pacific coast country
will' take' care of itself. California is
certain to give the progressive ticket a
large majority, and the situation In Ore
gon, Washington and the mountain states
Is very similar to my home state.,
Jobaaoa Makes Claims. .
"While I am not predicting, I would
sot be in the least surprised to see New
York roll up a majority for the progres
sive ticket, and at this time It look as
If we are sure of carrying Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana arid Illinois. There is no
question but that we will carry both oC
the . Dakota,- Minnesota and Kansas.
"I don't say that Roosevelt will be
electedv but If I 'was going to guess, t
would; not hesitate to guess that Taft
would finish third in the race. The facts
are that I cannot see where he la going
to get the states to 'elect him.
The Kercro Ceaventloa.
'The split that the old party leaden
were looking for in the south did not
come. ' It Is true that some of our col
ored friends were not perfectly satisfied
at one stage of the proceedings of the
convention, but those who were fair, and
not office seekers went home satisfied.
In the north we feel that we will have
the support of a goodly portion of the
colored people. . They realise that we are
not against them, but. tha instead the
new party is one that affords them op
portunities and privileges that are not
accorded them by either of the old or
ganisations." - '"' - '- -',
Questioned relative to Wilson, Governor
Johnson said. "I have read his letter,
manifesto, or whatever it may be called,
and the only comment I have to make Is
that It lacks force. Wilson Is a good
man, but his enunciations are not what
were expected. It was 'thought that he
would come out equarety on the important
issues, but he has been disappointing."

over the company's western lines. He
says that during. hie long residence in

,, "Nebraska haa sarvested the best small
grain crop in the history of the state,?
ays Mr.' Holdrege, "corn "Is coming on
fine and everywhere except in a few
counties In the east part of Nebraska,
Is almost certain, to , be as good, if not
the best that has ever been raised. The
potatoes and root Crop is unusually
large and the range is the best that I
have' ever seen . It Cattle and sheep,
owing 'to the severe weather last winter
and the fact that farmers and ranchers,
owing to high prices, have sold down
close, will be a little scarce, but it looks
that 1 what will be' lost In quantity will
be made by reason of th advance. How
ever, I find' that the range Is being re
stocked." i:r ; '' '""' ;-.
GREEK LADS ANXIOUS TO
; GO TONIGHT SCHOOL
, James Filler, Peter Frankos and twenty-five
other "ahlne artists' .under ,21
years of age. have, petitioned , the city
council to pass some legislation that will
permit them to attend night school at
the Young Men's Christian association
and "become, better ciibtens of this great
country." .The request will be considered
by the council in committee of the whole.
. ''We, the .undersigned, minora employed
la. the shoe shining parlors In Omaha,
respectfully ask you to pass some legisla
tion that we m.y" avail ourselves of the
opportunity to go to the Toung Men's
Christian . association night school ' and
thus' become better citizens of this great
country," the petitioners plead.
"Lincoln (Neb.) has passed such legisla
tion, , also Kansas City and . other cities
are taking up this idea.
"We would suggest that; our working
hour should not be later than I o'clock
p. m.' week days and 1. o'clock p. m.
Sundays." ..... :

Greevy Befuses
. to Take.Yeiser's
Protest Seriously
Secretary Greevy of the Douglas county
republican committee expresses surprise
that John O. Yelser had protested the
action of the committee in fitting vacan
cies for county offices on the republican
ticket
"I don't know whether. such a protest
Is worthy the dignity of a reply," said
Mr. Greery. "Mr, Yelser protests on the
ground that the committee that filled in
the . vacancies is not the regular com
mittee. Well, that matter was alt fought
out by the executive committee of the re
publican state central committee at Lin
coln In making up the roll of the conven
tion, and the rump delegation from Doug
las coun.ty was thrown out and our dele,
gatlon. was. seated. This confirmed the
regularity of the proceedings of the re
publican county convention held In
Omaha July 20, and settles all dispute as
to the regularity of. the present com
mittee.". Mr. Greevy thinks Yelser's protest will
have little weight The committee sec.
retary smiles at Yelser's efforts to be
still counted a republican while he openly
talks and works . for the bull moose
ticket ' ' ! .
Carpenter at South
Omaha Kills Self
Joe Novotony,' 63 years old, a carpenter
at the Bwlft Packing company, committed
suicide Thursday night by hanging him
self to some shrubbery in a ravine near
Fourteenth and R streets. South Omaha.
The body was found at 8:30 o'clock In the
morning by frank Zallnka, Frank Vala
and his brother, a party of lads bound
for the i woods along ' the Missouri river
bank near; South Omaha. '
Officer William Corrlgan was notified
and the body turned over to Deputy Coro
ner Larkln., An Inquest' will probably be
held next week.
Novotony left the home' Of his daughter,
Mrs. Francis Splvak, Thursday evening
and was in apparent good health at the
time. He did not return and it was
thought . that he might have gone away
to visit some of his other children in
South Omaha. No definite reason is given
for his act and none of the neighbors
near the Spivak home know of any quar
rel or trouble.
The deceased leaves four children,
Sam, Joseph and Anton Novotony and
Mrs. Francis Splvak. '
Peddlers Protest
Weight Measure
J. M. Macfarland, attorney for the ped
dlers who are protesting against the ordi
nance passed by the city council requiring
that all articles be sold by weight, pre
sented a protesting petltton to the coun
cil and were granted a hearing on the
repeal of the ordinance. They' will appear
before the committee of the whole Thurs
day..' .
Macfarland said his petition was signed
by seventy licensed peddlers and by forty
five merchants and commission men.
John Grant Pegg, city sealer of weights
end measures, and the grocers associa
tion, which favors the ordinance, will be
notified to appear and defend the ordi
nance as passed.
