auditor. Mr. Hedlund was one of the
men who led the victorious fight on
George Bowerman three years ago. He
was a leading candidate for auditor,
and by joining forces with Eugene
Moore he made the latter's nomination
possible. Hedlund came in from the
western part of the state, and he will
which reference is made to the fact
that the public conscience seems to have
become moribund. The fact that this
city has been misgoverned, off and on,
for years, is one so patent to every man
that it needs no elucidation. Tet there
have been very few Instances where
citizens have risen in strong protest
against the acts of their public serv
ants. T-he city council has brazenly

quality. Other shows have gone on
seeking public favor with the same

Mr. Bryan has changed his program
frequently. When the public taste
allowed his thoughts to wander toward
the state houFe. In the event of Mr.
Morrill's deciding not to be a candi
date, this other Fifth warder will in all
probability ask for the support of the
county in the state convention. It is

ten years been looking toward the gov
ernorship, and his recent victory in
Douglas county will make him a for
midable candidate in the next contest.
Mr. Rosewater is, to use a colloqualism,
"on the run," and there are those who
tie protest, and no organized action at
all against the repetition of the out
rages. When the civic federation was
organized a faint ray of hope that the
civic Indifference was about to be dis

Fifth ward. Since Anna Eva Fay, "The

THE PUBLIC CONSCIENCE
to the new silver lined circus with sum- diction is taken as Indicating that Mr.
Slzer's candidacy has the cordial ap
proval of the spirits. And spirits some
times exercise a potent Influence in a
political convention. J. W. Bowen, of
this city, is also a candidate for audit
or. P. O. Hedlund, deputy auditor, will
be a candidate for the nomination for
mersaults and straddles unparalleled
in the history of circuses. And so.
from time to time Mr. Bryan has
worked In new schemes and proved
himself to be a master of the showman's
art. He has exemplified In all Its glory
and to the fullest extent Mr. Bar
num's famous maxim, and although
his tent has been several times blown
down he has always remained in the
field. There has always been a Bryan
show.
The success of the Omaha circus Is
it seems to me. fully assured. Securing
Mr. Bryan's services Is a great deal.
Omaha society is rich In resources as
was strikingly evidenced in the Ak-Sar-Ben
fete and accompanying Feast of
Mondamin where the most select of the
metropolis select population to the
number of S000 or thereabouts provided
themselves with $10 and a dress suit
and salaamed befor Isadore Rush at
the court ball. The thought suggests
Itself that Omaha society can make a
circus of Itself without half trying.
Now that it Is really going to make an
effort, with the skillful and facile Mr.
Bryan as conductor, the result is sure
to be something highly entertaining.
The announcement that R. E. Moore,
lieutenant governor, will not be a can
didate for governor next year, may have
p surprised the general public The gen
eral public is not acquainted with the
workings of practical politics. Mr.
Moore's Intimate friends have known
for some time that he would not be a
candidate, and Mr. Moore, as he consid
ers the cost of the lieutenant governor
ship, is not sorry that he has decided
not to aspire to the higher office. It
costs & neat sum to be nominated and
elected governor of Nebraska, a sum
altogether out of proportion to the sal
ary that officer receives.
Mr. Morrill, of this city. Just re-elected
regent, has, for some months, been
considering the advisability of becom
ing a candidate. He is bUU consider
ing. The odds are that the considera
tion will terminate In a determination
to run. Mr. Morrill lives In the Fifth
ward. He is not the only aspiring
statesman In that ward. There are oth
ers. For instance there's Mr. McClay.
This gentleman has been credited with
a desire to be nominated for state treas
urer. It is now reported that he is
thinking of trying for the audltorshlp.
Mr. Morrill and Mr. McClay cannot both
have the support of Lancaster county.
The Fifth ward would have to choose
between them If they both decide to
try to secure a place on the republican
state ticket next year. There is anoth
er politician in the Fifth ward who has
The following is from the News of
Monday evening:
In another column we reproduce an
editorial from our sprightly contempo
rary, the Courier, which by the way, is
much the best written newspaper In
the city and vastly more entertaining
than when it believed society news the
prime requisite of a Saturday newspa
per. There Is much food for thought
contained in the first paragraph in
grave months ago. In fact it never sur
vived the hard and cruel shock of the
pril elections, but died before it was
really ready, thus fulfilling the predic
tions of the politicians that it would
never be1 heard of after the election.
We have gone right ahead, year after
year, with now and then a lucid Inter
val, electing men whom we know will
betray us to the corporations and the
tax-eaters, and as a matter of fact we
have largely deserved the fate that is
now upon us in the shape of our present
council and police administration.
