OMAHA DAsLYBE k-"TIHTURSDAY OCTOBER 23 1884, L - 0UT FOR OFFICE. The Names of Many of the Candi- dates for County Honors, The nominations made by the late democratic county convention hasveansed the republicans to look around for candi- dates for their ticket. For most places on the ticket a sufficient number of aspi rants can be found who will not all various offices to go begging. w the For county judge the present incum- bent, H, McCullock from prosent indica- tions will have a clear field. No one as yot had announced himself as a candidato for nomination, and the struggle for the office will probably lio between the democratic nomines, Mr. J. J. Points, and the presenty connty judge at th polls For the oflice of coroner, the nomina tion of John Drexel has eocuved to H, K, Burket a walkaway in the convention. This gentleman will, in all probability bo nominated without opposition, although a dark horao at the present time is in the field. For the official place occupied for so many years by Commissioner B. P, Kuight, a host of aspirants have already appeared, Joseph Rodman, John H. Brackin and Henry Bolln of the Sixth ward, William Tarner of Eikhorn, John Clinker of Jefferson precinct, are men- tioned by their friends as able and com- potent mon for the oftice of commissioner erom the Third distrlct. Besides the men mentioned above for this place, the prosent incumbent and J., B. Redfield, councilman from the Third ward, who once served the county in that office, are looked upon as dark horses whose colors are growing brighter as the nominating day approaches. For the legislature the labor of a couple hours’ inquiry elicited names enough to make nearly two tickets. A great many more are willing to accept the nomination in case it is tendered them, but have sur- ‘ rendered themselves into the hands of their friends and do not propese to dis- turb the elements at work. None of the aspirants who are laboring for place seem to bave made any choice as to which branch of the legislature they desire to hold a seat in. Among the many who are mentloned are George B. Lane, once superinten- dent of the Omaha sohools; John H. Erok, the Sixteenth street hardware dealer; Christian Specht, the cornice man; Frank E. Bailey, the brick manu- facturer; Tom Brunner, the grocer; Erick Petersen, of the Sixth ward; ¥rank Lawton, and Dorsey B.Houck, the expressman,all of this city, Morris Morri- son has beenspoken of as a good represen- tative of his nationality, but says he will_not go into the convention as a candidate.

The oldest inhabitant is the tarantu- 1a (pronounced here taranchewla) spider, I have a live specimen in a glass jar be- fore me as I write, purchased from a small boy this morning. He Is a horrible looking subject, having a body about two inches long, and ten legs, each about one and one a half inches in length, with which he can get over the ground faster thana jack- rabbit. The bite from the tarantula is very poisonous and often fatal, but unless %e-tly provoked they will not bite. hisky in unlimited quantity is said to be the best antidote, The nest of the tarantula is very curious, and they may be had here for the moderate sum of two “‘bits” (20 _cents), the bit being used all through California, and worth a York shilling, 12} cents, The house ot the tarantula is made of clay; is about 4 inches long and 2 inches in diameter, rough and shaped much as a potato, and while rough outside is compleiely lined within with the softest material imaginable, whito and silky, spun from the spider’s own body. The most curious part of the house, however, is the door, which is also made of clay, and hinged, and which, when closed, is almost air tight. Iam told the tarentula, when frightened or disturbed will run into its nest, pull to the door, and hold on to it with a claw 80 that it is hard to dislodge him Ho evidently knows the point of English law, that a tarantula’s ‘home is his castle,” Other agreeable companions found here are scorpions, also very poisonous, and centipedes, a small creature with a number of superfluous legs and a bite which is fatal, unless antidoted in season. But few of these creatures ever enter dwelling-houses, and it is exceedingly rare that a death from such a cause oc- curs, the antidote, whisky, killing many more in this region than the poison.

They also have a long, V-shaped tail, covered with the same studded points, They aro perfectly harmless, and may be handled with im- punity.

I found wages tobe in New York as high ae in any of the large towns I after- wore visited—that is, two dollars a day seemed the standard wages of those who called themselves *‘private workingmen,” what we should call day laborers. “Longshoremen”—men working in bak- cries, stores, ete.,—received this wage— very high pay apparently; but when it is remembered that a tenement such as I have described, costs nearly £30 a year, and that everything in the way of clothes is more than double the price in England, the differenco is not so re- markable. One source of expense comes very heavily on the poor of New York. The fashion requires even the poorest to make a great display at funerals, and also burial lots are very expensive, It costs, I hava been assured, 8100 to bury a child amongst the people of the working class; and unfortunately, as is well known, the poor regard it almostas a point of reli- gion to do the utmost possible for the dead. To meet these monstrous and often absurd expenses societies are form- ed, often senri-political, but also benefit societies. While talking with one of the members of these societies ono evening, the weather being very warm he was sitting in his shirt-sleeves, and I noticed a silver badgo worn on the breast, and asked the meaning. 1had touched on one of those points that make Irishmen love the system of government in America as heartily as they detest the Euoglish system, **This,” said he, *‘is a deputy-sheriff's badge.

The merchant [s being worked in the regular Wiy “‘You spoak as though it were a com- mon oceurrence for drummers, who as a rule don’t get princely salarics; to set up their customors regularly to $10 or $20 dinners, Certainly they can’t do that unless their employers foot the bills.” “Their employers don't foot many bills of that kind, you may be suro, that is, not if they know it. One of our sales men, when he was fresh at the business, made a trip out west and spent a small fortune for wines, dinners, and clgars for men to whom he tried to sell. He had heard the boys tell about doing this sort ofthing, and, of course, thought it was When he got back from his three months’ trip he put in his expense bill: ‘To treating customers, $300." Well perhaps he didn’t get a dressing down from the firm. You should have been there to hear the fun. The senior mem- ber, one of those gruff old fellows, told him he must be a fool, and asked him if he thought he was sent out to keep country merchants supplied with wine and clgars, himself, and you may be sure he never got caught in such a racket again. He had to stand the racket “His customers, I suppose, get no more dinners as his expense?” “Oh, yes, they did, just as many as Only they didn't appear on his ‘‘Paid for them himself, eh?” “‘Well, n-n-o, not exactly,” was the re- sponse, accompanied by a aly wink. *We drummers, I know, are a pretty fresh, innocent lot, but we don’t go quite 8o far as to spend all our salary and moro too in treating our customerf. Not much.” “‘Perhaps I didn’t quite follow you,but I understood you to say that the ono of whom you apoke continued to epond money for the purpose mentioned and yot didn’t charge it to the firm, How then did he escapo paying 1t himself?” “Have a cigar,” said the commersial man, as he nonchalently lighted one him- self and tossed the match away. ‘‘and come over here and sit down while I tell you about it.” Comfortably seated, he wenton: *‘You see, & drummer’s lifo is peculiar in many respacts. In the first place it is a roving, restless sort of an existence that always keops him on the go. Whatever success he achieves is due to his own individual exertions, The competition in almost every line of trade is intense, and if & man wants to sell any goods he has got to make himself solid as the boys say ith his customers. The only way for him to do this is to make himslf popu- lar. Now popularity in nine cases out of ten is due to an off-hand good-fellowship and liberality that drummers as a rule must possess in order to succeed. It is absolutely essential for him to be liberal with | is customerr, and occasionally in- vite them to dinner or to the theater, He must do this even with his old custom- ers, and when he wants to catch on to a man whom a rival is selling it is even more essential. Well, now, of courso the drummer can’t stand the expeuse of theso rackews out of his salary, They would soon eat it up. How, then, does he fix it?" ] really give it up.” “Theonly way obviously is for him to catch onto some extra source of income. And this, as a matter of fact, is what most of usdo. Whether the means that we take to do this are always just what any- one would cali porfectly square is a ques- tion, However, 'll give you my idea of what they are on the strict ‘Q T.’ you understand, and you can judge for your- appose now, for example, that I travel through the western part of the state or in Rhode Island or Connecticut. Oi course I pass over tho same road very often, and in time come to know all of the conductors, baggagemasters, and other railroad employes very well, “The conductor passes through the hands, and, after a littlo chat, passes on, nover thinking to ask me formy ticket. they act in fact as a detective force, hav- ing even power over the open guardiaus of the peace. Such a system, if well ca rled out, must be of the utmost import- ance in a city like New York, always swarming with a fluctuating population; and the trust it implies in the con- duct of citizens, even of the poorest class, tends to raise that class, he in- terest the poor in New York take in the system of government, their pride, in their independence, their keen percep- tion of the abuses, and yet confidence in and love for the constitution of the country, was a contrast indeed with the apathetic distrust or the fierce dislike with which the average Irlshman regards what goes under the title of law and order in Ireland, but whathe regards as meaning class oppression, jury packing; snd sometimes jud murder. Yet the men are the same, the Celtic character- i in my opinion, more marked and m re developed 1n every class among the Irish-Americans than among the Irish at home; but in the one case they are liv- ing under & ruls in which they bear their own part, and no insignificsnt one, and in the other they see themselves in their own country powerless and derided, and defamed, * ——— « The worst pile tumors cured in ton days, ruptuce in one month, Pawplet two (351)stamps, World's Die pensicy Medical Association, Buffalo, N, x * —— @t Benson & Bro, —— Ask your Grocer for HaMBURGER 80ap. al2af ok axp Uoar «Jm 5 | N.

Ldon't think of it either, and the result of it is that next time I go over the road the samo ticket answers my purpose. Now, who shall profit by this mistake! Not the firm, certainly. I charge two fares on my expense bill and pocket the profit, soe. Or suppose again, that I have a fow hundred pounds of extra baggage. 1 know the baggage-master well, Porhaps he has smoked more than one of my cigars, or taken sundry drinks with me. At all events we are good friends, I go to him and say: *‘Look here, old man, I've got a little extra luggage: what is it going to cost mel” “How much is it{" “0Oh, not a great deal; & few pounds perhaps.” ) “Well, I guess we wont charge 'you anything for it. “Much obliged. Have a smoke! And I hand over iwo or three cigars. “Now, clearly, tke firm ought to psy for that extra luggage, aud you can rest assured that they. do, too. “In the course of a year it foots up to quite a snug lite bill. +Then there is the old racket of hav ing your letters sent to the Fifth Avenue hotel, and stopping at some chesp up- town hostelry, This, however, is some- thing that the more rospectable members of the profession rather look down upon, It's rather low, you know. But now, here's another question. Suppose I have a friond, as very often happens, in some of the towns where 1 haverto stop two or three days, and they invite we to stay with them, Must 1 charge the firm the rogular bili for expenses?
