Nebraska
DEMOS ARE READY
TO YIS1TST. LOUIS
Preparation! Made Provide for Two
Separate Trains From
Nebraska.
SOME ABE GOING ON AHEAD
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, June 9. (Special.) Ev
erything has been completed for the
movement of Nebraska democracy to
St. Louis for the purpose of attending
the national democratic convention
and assisting in the nomination of Mr.
Wilson.
Ten cars of various makes, sizes,
designations, and other things will
f leave Omaha and Lincoln. A part of
these loaded with bourbon democracy
will leave Omaha over the Missouri
Pacific at 5:30, while another part
loaded with the unterrified followers
f the honorable Mr. He Haw will
leave Lincoln over another road ot
the same company at 4:30 p. m. 1 his
1t L - J t. , I ...... n , .
Will ail UC UU11C Ull Ileal wuimaj an
ernoon, just as the sun goes down
over the western horizon. The two
trains will meet, converge, come to
gether, assemble and join each other
at Union. This will be done because
they believe that in union there is
strength, and most of .the delegates
and their attendant friends are fully
aware that the ticket they will put up
will have to be strengthened a great
deal before it will be able to make
even a faint stand against the on
slaught of republican hosts this fall.
It will be noted that the Lincoln
train is given am uch longer time to
get to the point of convergance that
the one from Omaha. This is done in
order that the harmony serum inocu
lated just about the time the train
leaves Lincoln may have plenty of
time to "take" before the Omaha
iumeli ,titfrmSn7li With P.harlii.
Bryan and Herb Gooch on the same
train there will have to be some pretty
scientific political inoculation done in
order to continue the same brand of
Harmony which has characterized the
wonderful harmonious working spirit
which has been shown the last six
months. '
Tomorrow morning Earl B. Gaddis,
Max Katelman, K. C. McRay and W.
S. Ridgell, will leave Lincoln for St.
Louis as a sort of advance guard.
The special trains are timed to
reach St Louis at 8 o'clock in the
morning on June 13.
Senator Crawford Kennedy will go
with the delegation next Monday in
the role of chaperon and for the pur
pose of giving a sort of respectable
tinge to the excursion. The senator
knows he is taking a great deal of
risk, but he has been up against some
pretty "tuff" proposition in his life
and he does not appear to be afraid to
tackle this one. Like the prophet of
old, he dares to rush in where angels
fear to tread.

BOY SCOUTS WILL CLEAN
UP BROKEN BOW STREETS
Broken Bow, Neb., June 9. (Spe
cial.) The Boy Scouts of this city
have taken over the job of cleaning
up the streets of waste paper and
other junk and keeping them clean.
Some time ago the Department of
Commerce at Washington wrote the
public service here apprising them of
the scarcity of paper in the United
States and asked their co-operation
in the matter. The municipal com
mittee of the club took over the mat
ter and determined to work it to the
good of the city. A dealer was looked
up who would handle a certain class
of refuse and junk at a fair price
and a proposition made to the Boy
Scouts, who called a special meeting
and accepted the offer. A system
has been mapped out and the city will
be worked by streets, which includes
a house to house canvass.

MR. BORAH VISITS
M00SEMEETIH6
Republican Member of Harmony
Committee Makes Eloquent
Flea for United Action.
HIS ACTION IS UNOFFICIAL
Auditorium Hall, Chicago, June 9.
Without any preliminary announce
ment Senator William E. Borah en
tered the auditorium hall at 12:40
p. m., where the progressives were
assembled in convention. He was
escorted to the platform. A tremen
dous ovation was given him.
Chairman Robins introduced Sen
ator Borah and the convention roared
itself hoarse when the senator said
he had not come officially.
"I will ay to you frankly," were
his first words, "1 cpme over here to
get an inspiration."
At once a wave swept over the hall
started, no one knew how, suggesting
that stronger events than harmony,
with Borah as the man to unite the
parties, might happen. This thought
grew as the senator, in his speech, in
troduced the magic name "Roosevelt"
as the progressives great leader.
"We want Teddy," resounded
through the hall and galleries with
more-vim than at any time since the
convention assembled. It was not
"canned enthusiasm" or if it was the
can had burst from internal compres
sion. Senator Borah waited quietly
and finally Chairman Robins urged
quiet
"It is well known the deep seated
affection I have for your leader," and
was halted by a salvo of enthusiasts,
the whole convention in a mighty
chant shouting "We want Teddy" for
a lull minute, while Borah smilingly
waited. The shouting lulled and then
was renewed, leaders on the stage
joining.
Delegates Yell for Borah.
"There's no. doubt you want Ted
dy," said Senator Borah.
"We want Borah, too," answered
the delegates and the senator pro
ceeded and swung into the stride of
his speech, which he promised would
be brief.
He put a quietus on the whispered
circulation of his name as a possible
"Moses" by reminding the progres
sive convention that he was present
as a member of a committee from an
other convention."
"There is not a doubt but that vou
want Teddy and that millions of citi
zens throughout the country also
want Teddyr" he began. "You are
fortunate in having a leader," he con
tinued, "who has done more than any
otner man to mane tne issues ot this
campaign.
"He is a maker of questions in
volved in this international crisis, the
convention responding enthusiasti
cally to the praise oMhe colonel.
Great Issue at Stake.
"But let us bear in mind." he urged.
"what these two conventions do here
will perhaps decide the welfare of the
Store of the Town.

'But if the two conventions agree
upon your leader you will find no
more enthusiastic supporter than myself."
Borah concluded amid annlauce and
shouts of Roosevelt and Borah. .
As Borah shook hands with the
leaders on the staee and left the floor
hummed with excited discussion of
the dramatic development.

and former Senator Crane, when they
learned that Senator Borah had gone
to the progressive convention, said
it was an entirely personal matter
with him and that he went at his own
volition.
