nctive G. A. R. men in the state and

ONE-MAN STREET
CARS TO BE USED
HERE THIS WEEK
Five of New Tramway Carriers
Will Operate On
Four Lines.
Omaha will have its first glimpse
of "one-man" street cars this week,
when five will be put in service on
the Center street. East Omaha,
North Omaha and Carter lake lines;
R. A. Leussler, vice president and
general manager of the traction
company, announced yesterday.
These cars have been ordered for
several months, and the first ones
arrived Saturday. The entrance and
exit are both at the front of the car,
where one man acts as both motor
man and coductor. Their seating
capacity is 36 persons.
Among the novel features of the
new cars is the "dead man's" control,
which automatically cuts off thi cur
rent, sets the air brakes, sands the
rails and opens the door when the
motorman's hand leaves the control.
It is al.o impossible to open the
doors when the car is in motion, or
to start the car when the doors are
open.
The one-man cars are in general
use in Kansas City and in several
other cities. Mr. Leussler says. Only
the five will be in use here until their
practicality i assured, and even then
they will not do away with the two
men cars, according to MrLeussler.
Woman Gets Hubby in Jail,
Then Makes Bond for Him
Mrs. Rach Hookstra went out and
obtained $500 bond to get her hus

their eight children and went to
Tocatello, Idaho. He was brought
back from there on a charge of wife
and child abandonment, for which
he is awaiting trial.
Mrs. Hookstra said it is all a mis
take, that he went there to work and
would have sent money back to his
family. He has explained it all, she
said.

Gas Customers Kicking on
-Service Charge, Howell Says
'"The people like Service and thev
are filling to pay for it," said a pro
minent Omaha business man recent

item which appears on the Augu.st

CAMPAIGN FUND
IS ONLY $25,000,
HOWELL ASSERTS
Quota. For S,tate Only . Half
What Demos Say Assess
ment Against City
Alone Was.
R. B. Howell, republican national
committeeman for this state, asserts
with considerable vigor that Ne
braska's quota for the national cam
paign fund is $25,000.
"1 was asked by the executive com
mittee of the republican national
committee to appoint a wfcys and
means for this state, and I did so,"
said Mr. Howell." "I was later offi
cially advised by the national com
mittee's campaign headquarters that
Nebraska's quota had been fixed at
$25,000. I never heard of the al
leged quota of $50,000 for Omaha
except through democratic propa
ganda. There is nothing to that $50,
000 allegation.
Mr. Howell has just returned from
an eastern trip, during which he was
in close touch with the national com
mittee and campaign managers. He
regards the democratic hue and cry
about alleged prodigality of repuo
lican campaign expenses as lending
a bit of levity to the campaign,
which is beginning to warm up. He
explained that the beginning of every
national campaign is attended by
some grotesque features and he
considers this latest outbreak of the
democrats as a bit "jazzy."
"I also know," added Mr. Howell
seriously, "that Nebraska's quota
for the national campaign four years
ago was $13,000 and that the na
tional committee spent more than
that amount in this state. Our quota
for this campaign is fixed at $25,000,
and anyone who makes a statement
to the contrary is merely trying to
spoof the electorate,"

"The movement does not indicate

"On the other hand, advertising in
Omaha is particularly free from mis

of the most reputable firms. The
