Ten minutes aftor Frank Koutsky ImJ
tiled for mayor yesterday evening th
protected slot machines were brine hauled
out of the saloons by their alleged owners.
It was the first concession of Tom '
Hoctor's administration to the demands
of the republicans In the council and tin '
cltlrena at largo who havo been fighting
for months to get rid of tho gambllns
machines.
Tho slot machine nuisance has borne a j
charmed existence under tho Hoctor ad.

made upon them by city Attorney Henry
Murphy, Councilman John Vana and the
In. with City Clen. Perry Wheeler fo, ' ' ,X r Tfa

treasurer, and Prank Richardson for the
republican nomination to the school
board.
City Clerk Perry Wheeler, City Attor
ney Henry C. Murphy and tho rest of tho
republican candidates will file today for
thcr respective offices. Councllmen Jay
Williams, John Vana and John Rlha are
expected to file for the positions In the
cltv council now held by them. Wes Ad
1:1ns. one of the best known and liked
business men In the city, was waited
upon by a delegation from the republican
club with the request that ho file for the
fire and police board. Adklns pleaded
that with two big businesses on his hands
he could not undertake the race but
friends say he will have to fight to es
cape the burden.
Republicans United.
The harmony and team work among the
republicans Is superb. At a meeting of
the South Omaha Republican club last
night the ticket was canvassed and
names suggested and discussed even
among soma of the possible candidates
with the best Interests of the ticket as
tho wholo consideration. Added to this
Is the determined desire to give the city
a business administration free from the
methods pursued so Ions; by the Hoctors
and tho Gtlllnltes.
One name on the democratic ticket has
developed no opposition and that Is the
name of Jerry Fitzgerald, tax commis
sioner, who was elected to his present
office under the same conditions a year
ago. While It Is possible that some re
publican may file against Fitzgerald the
discussion at the club brought out no
aspirant last night.
Other places on tho ticket will probably
be filled by George Knight of, tho FJrst
ward, John Vana of tho Second ward,
J., C. Rowley of the Third ward, John
Rlha of tho Fourth ward, Gus Sangor of
the . Fifth ward, Jay Williams of the
Sixth ward and Jay TraDP of the Sevctith
ward,
Frank Richardson, who filed for tha
school board, is regarded as one of the
strong men brought out. He is nn em
ploye of Swift and Company, popular and
well known. Others who have filed for
some of the places mentioned are John
Fisher df the Second ward, F. V. Black
for the Board of Education, T. G. Rise
for the Board of Kducatlon, John Cuszak
for the council. John Mclntyre, one of
the old timers of the Fourth ward, has
taken under consideration the probability
of his filing for the fire and police com
mission. Dr. W. J. Faulk has also filed
for the'flro and police commission.
" City Clerk; Wheeler announced that ho
would maintain his office open until mid
night Saturday In order to accommodate
all who 'pish to file. -The gang-.will file
some time, today.
Aftor Koutsky had ' filed yesterday
emissaries of the gang piked about in tho
hope of discovering some irregularity, tho
hopo being that someone else had signed
for Koutsky, but that was quickly dis
sipated when Koutsky's handwriting was
ticen on the filing blank. There will be
open house at the Republican club this
ministration finally assisted In passlne
an ordinance that forbude the machine
In South Omaha. Hoctor, however, re
fused to sign tho law and by his veto
continued the machines In operation. As
long as Ryan and Pivonka were In office
It was easy to throw the blamo for con
ditions upon them. After their defeat

A ROYAL ROAD TO FAME
Prestige Connected rrlth the
of Secretary to the
President.
Post
Members of congress and the news
paper correspondents have received with
a great deal of 'nterest the announce
ment of the name of the secretary to
President-elect AVIIson. To many of them,
the selection Is regarded as of more
Importance than that of the members of
the cabinet. Incidentally, a certain
amount of the popularity or uipopularlty
of the new administration will depend
on the tactfulness and the personality
of tile secretary of the new president,
Mr. Tumulty has been tried as secrotary
to Governor Wilson and now, like his
chief, goes to the wider field of activity
at the national capital.
The Ideal private secretary practices
self-effacement. This characteristic has
been emphasized by nearly all of the men
who are proven successful In what 's
really a trying position, It was notably
the case with Daniel Lament, George 1).
Cortelyou and William Loob, Jr. With
this self-abnegation must be combined
ability, tact and a wide knowledge of
men.
Given all of these advantages, the pri
vate secretary to the president Is apt
to win a pre Use which blazes the way
to fame, or fortune, or both. There has
rarely been an Instance where such a

Daniel Lamont, who has often been
pointed out as the Ideal of what a prl

paper man In Albany- Ho was appolntsd
to the position of military secretary to
the then Governor Cleveland, and that
carried with It tho honorary designation
of 'Colonel," which remained with Urn
even afterwards. When Mr. Cleveland

so at a Kreot pecuniary sacrifice.
George H, Cortelyou is a striking in
stance of a young man who had th
ability to take advantage of an unex

erne day was urgently in need of a stenog.
rapher. None of the regular staff could
be located, and, In his Impetuous wiy,
the president ordered that the flrit
shorthand man who came In sight
should be sent to him. Mr. Cortelo'j
responded, and a little later became Urn
regular stenographer and afterwardS-tr-p
private secretary to the president In
this capacity, he enjoyed the confidence
of three presidents of the United States,
and finally became a member of Mr,
Roosevelt's cabinet.
Mr, Loeb began, like Lamont, as pri
vate secretary to tho governor of New
York, and from that position graduated
tn be assistant secretary to the presldi-.t,
filially becoming liln secretary. In a
popular sense he enjoyed the not-too-n
enviable post of "office goat" to the Im

In Washington when Mr. Taft assumed
the presldenoy, that Roosevelt asked hn
successor to place Ioeb In his cabinet,
but that Mr, Taft declined on the ground
that Loeb was not quite of cabinet stat

him the lucrative position of collector of
