MNCOI.N, Deo. 2t.-(8peclal.)-The pub
lication this morning In" a local paper that
Governor Aldrich would 'attempt to pry
JlBrry IJndsoy loose from his position as
clerk of the. supremo court by a recom
mendation in his message to tho legisla
ture that tho offlco be abolished, caused
tho governor to becomo somewhat wroth.
I have a 'notion to deny all newspaper
reporters tho rights of this offlco," he
said. I can't even pull, off a Joko but
what some of them take It seriously and
proceed to write tho thing up. I was
Joking about whut I said, though there
might bo some truth about some of It."
The Incident calls to mind that this Is
not the first Unto that a governor In the
past hus recommended in his message
tho abolishment of somo department or
part of a department.
Governor Savage, In his message to the
legislature la 1K0, recommended that the
office of stato auditor and commissioner
of public lands and buildings should be
abolished and that with the addition of
a few clerks to tho office of tho governor,
secretary of stato and treasurer, tho work
could be done Just as well and many
thousands' of dollars saved annually to
the stats.
Governor hoyd recommended In hla
nicssago that the stato cauld save money
by cutting off numerous clerks and Idlo
officials, but did not name any particu
lar department or officials that he
thought should be sent out to face the
cold, cruel, world.
Governor Mickey was very strong in
his denunciation of the "lobby" and
urged the legislature to pass such resolu
tions as would do away with the gentle
men who attended sessions of the legls
'aturo in order to convince the members
that they should vote right.
Whether the "proclamation" of the
governor relative to the clerk of the
supreme court had anything to do with
it or.hot, is not evident, but anyhow, the
clerk the deputy and all the attaches
of the- offlco this morning wore earning
thelr;.brcad by the sweat of their brow
and digging like heroes leading a forlorn
hope.; .

then will follow the choosing of .1 lest.ee,
who will be allowed the privilege of mak
ing a cliolco on the -architect who will
plan the structure. It Is probable that tlio
architect will bo chosen for his ability In
planning hotels.
Somo one competent and who has
planned large hotel buildings will bo glvon
the contract to design the Omaha hos
telry. Omaha architects, contractors and
laborers will bo considered In nil the work
of erection.
Who the officers or directors of the
hotel company will be, of courso cannot
be told until after tho meeting of stock
holders. It Is probable that those who
wero Identified with the proposition from
the first will bo given preference because
of their enthusiasm and ability. For in
stance some of those Individuals and firms
who have been the larger subscribers
have suggested that Gurdon W. Wattles
be mado an officer or director, probably
president of the hotel company.
Thero Is somo talk of making John 1j.
Kennedy secretary or treasurer, or' both,
but Mr, Kennedy declares he has heard
nothing of this and, moreover, will have
too much to do In other matters concern
ing the erection of the building and his
own business to give his tlmo to such an
office.
It is practically certain that A. D. Bran-
dels will bo one of the directors and In
all probability, an officer.
JVmnlntr the Hotel.
Naming the hotel probably will be de
cided by popular sentiment. Some of
those most closely connected with tho
proposition say they favor tho name,
"The Overland." Others favor, "The Ne
braska" and still others "The Omaha."
One or two have mentioned "The AJt-Sar-ltcn.'
The concensus of opinion is in
favor of a name which will Identify tho
hotel with tho city and attract attention
from the outside world, while at tho
same time suggesting dignity.
