County Commissioner Peter B. ElsaS'

Intention to Invoke a state law makln

The law has been on tho statute books
for years. The first commissioner, who
sought to hold office for an additional

Sullivan, say the law is good and Uio
commissioner, who was defeated by tho

tlrcly different point.
Elsasser's bond Is for $16,000. It was
filed In county court, as required by
statute. County Judge Bryco Crawford

While the politicians are lining up for
coiy places at tho state and national pie
counters, somo with eyes nearer home arc
planning for .the election to be held next
spring. There are n nunrorr Who maintain
that no election will be needed In tho
event of annexation, which It Is generally
admitted tho present legislature will pro
vide for. Others say that tho present offi
cials must serve out the full term for
which they wore elected. Most of the'1
present officers, however, feel that the
law calling for an election In 1913 must be
obeyed and thcreforo a slate Is being
made.
Those who are to get In on the slate
will. It Is understood, find little difficulty
In being elected in view of the fairly con
servative administration which tho present
officials are said to have given tho city,
lloctor. It Is understood, will lead tho
ticket. Which, It Is said, will be a non
partisan one, following closely the com-
ploxton of the present administration. As
yet arrangements for place on the ticket
arc tentative, lloctor's strength will bo
conslderebly weakened. It Is said, If he
should undertake to Ho tin with rltln-r
Commissioner Ryan or Commissioner
Pivonka of tho Klre and "Police board. It
Is claimed by friends of Rynn and Pi
vonka that Itoctor has been won over to
the defense of tho two accused commis
sioners, in viow of the treatment no
corded by tho two commissioners to Hoc
tor In tho administration of pollen board
affairs, It Is not thought that Itoctor has
Joined with either Ryan or Pivonka.
In state affairs Peter Powers Is after
the superlntendency of tho Industrial
school at Mtlford. Henry Richmond Is a
candldato for his old place, chief clerk of
the houso of representatives, with B. li.
RIdgeway as assistant. For the national
plums a number of strong men have come
to the front determined to-havo a voice
In tho matter of South Omaha federal ap
pointments. Tom Hoctor, Jim nulla, John

AccordIng to Hattlo, who was detained
at tho police station last night. Waller
has been urging her to marry him for

taking tho step becauso of tho trifling
Inconvenience of another husband. Lost
night Hattlo was about to return to her
room In Omaha when Waller raised ob
jections. Ho said he loved Hattlo and
wantod to marry her right away. Ho also
accused Hattlo of trifling with his" young
affections. A fight ensued and tho police
were called.
While Harry was In custody he plunged
a penknlfo into fhe region above his
heart. At tho police station Dr. li J.
Shanahan dressed the wound and Harry
was placed In the bull pen. Hattlc, In
tho bridal suite on tho second floor, com-
(-plained that she was not to blame If ufcr
fatal beauty had such a disastrous effect
upon Harry. Sho admitted that the sui
cidal attempt of Harry was tho outcome
of his ardent passion for he. She said
sho hoped Harry would recover, but she
waa stilt .unable to agree on marriage
with him because her other man was

showing employes how they could raise
their wages by assisting employers In
finding the cost of production on various
Jobs, lty a system of checking up the
time spent on each Job brought Into a
printing plant, he said, employes could
greatly assist their employers. Cost find
ing systems have been evolved In recent
years and since they have come into
existence printers have wondered how thoy
made their businesses pay before.
There were about forty-nvo employes
present and alt paid close attention to
Mr. lslllck's remarks on the "cost sys

part In which tho printer was Interested.
Tho object of the meeting waa to bring
about a better feeling between tho em

claimed by the members of the Hen

will revolutionize tho printing business In

Shall S
treet Car Stops Be Changed?
The Commercial Club and the .Omaha Auto-Motor
(automobile) Club desire to havo street oars stop at tho
near irido of tho streot intersections to take on and lot off
passengers instead of at the far side, as they do at pres
ent. The olaim 1b mndo by thorn that it will loBBen
accidents.
The Omaha Ss Council Bluffs Street Railway Company
docB not favor the change for the following reasons:
L It haa been the established practice in this city,
ever since street cars havo been operated, to stop on
the for side of Intersections, and it is the established
practice in tho majority of oities throughout tho country
today. "Wo feel a change would be confusing to resi
dents and strangers alike.
2. To stop at the' near side of intersections would loavo
the car entrance fifty feet away from the cross-walk,
compelling paBsengors to wade through mud when
boarding cars onunpaved streets, and compelling them
to wade through snow and slush when boarding oars
oven on paved stroets on many days during the winter.
3. Careful study and investigation fails to substantiate
the olaim that tho near-sido stop lessons acoidents. The
theory of advocates of the near-side stop is that there
will be fewer collisions if oars stop on the near side of the
street intersections. Our experience and the experience
of other street railways is that but few collisions occur
at intersections where the car is about to stop. Ninety
per cent of all collisions oocur either in the middle of the
blook or at intersections where the oar is not about to'
atop and, therefore, would not be affected by the ohango.
and the-remaining ten per cent would still occur, because
the chance of a street car colliding with another vehicle
when orosBing an intersection remains the same whether
it is starting up from a stop or coming to a stop as it
croBftes the intersection. In either event, the speed of
the oar would bo the same.
IT THE OMAHA & COUNCIL BLUFFS STREET
RAILWAY COMPANY BELIEVED THAT THE NEAR
SIDE STOP WOULD LESSEN ACCIDENTS, IT
WOULD BE QUICK TO ADOPT IT FOR FINANCIAL
REASONSiIF FOR NO OTHER, A I IT IS COM
PELLED TO PAY THE DAMAGES.
4, A number of oitios, after trying the nyar-aide Btop,
havo abandoned it and returned to tho fofhior praotico
of stopping at tho far side. Notable among tho oities is
the City of Minneapolis whore conditions are very similar
to the conditions in our own city.
The Omaha & Counoil Bluffs Street Railway Company
desiroB to do in this matter what the majority of fts
patrons wishos it to do, and, in order to give its patrons
the opportunity to express themselves, will take a vote
on the question.
On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, November 26tb",
26th and 27th, passengore on paying thoir fare will re
coive frorn the conductor a ballot, on which they- will
please indicnlo their wishes in the matter by marking a
cross opposite "FAR SIDE" or "NEAR SIDE" and
drop the same in the box on tho rear platform of the car.
It should bo borno in mind that if tho near-side stop is
adopted, cars will no longer stop on the far side.
Men, women and ohildron alike are entitled tova vote
for eaoh fare they pay, and we sincerely hope that all
persons will exercise their right to vote each time they
ride, bo that we may havo a fair expression of publio
sentiment on this question, not only for our own guidance,
but also for the guidance of tho City Commissioners, who
have been requested by the Commercial Club to onact an
ordinanoe requiring us to stop ori the near side instead
of the far side.
