ACTING WITH A HIGH HAND. | The Rowdy and Boodle Gang Riding Rough Bhod Over Douglas Connty Republicans. CONSISTENCY THOUART AJEWEL The Proxy OCommittee Protesting Against Proxies—An Act Which ‘Will Be Resented By Honest and Independent Republicans. The action of the republican county central committee in attempting to fore- stall the choice of the rank and file of the party at the primary elections by desig- nating a notorious clique to make up the delegation to the state convention has created quite a scnsation. It is the talk everywhere among people who take an netive interest in politics, and is very se- verely denounced on all hands as a high- handed piece of chicanery. A prominent republican who was pres- ent at the committce meeting and is thoroughly posted about local politics said to a BEE reporter: *‘1t 18 simply outrageous. A more im- pudent put-up ioh has never been at- iempted in Omaha 1n twenty years. The committee, as appointed Iast fali, is made ap of threo members from each of the then six wards of the city, and two each from the tweive country precincts, mak- ng in all forty-two members. Only seven- teen actual members of the committee were present. Fifteen political hacks and ward bummers came in by proxy, and three outsiders, who had evidently been invited into the pool, were admitted under the pretense that they were to represent the new wards. There was no delegate present from Valley, Waterloo, Saratoga and Douglas precincts. Those members had evidently been ignored by the tricksters because they might make trouble. The cheekjgst performance I ever saw was thi of Mike Lee. Mike was last year appointed member from the Second ward, but now he lives in the Seventh. He was on hand Purmnn]ly and gave a proxy to Mike iuhey to till his seat. This is the first time 1 have ever seen a man voting in a committee and having himself represent- ed at the same meeting by a proxy. Mike Lahey, by the way, has no business in a republiean committee. He wasa demo- crat for revenue until he was appointed engineer of the postoflice, then he be- came a pap-sucking republi When Cloveland came into power he threw up his place, expecting to be bounced, and went over to the democratic commission- crs in_the court house. He may pretend to stll be a republican, but he is soul and body the property of Dick O’Keefe and Mount. He works for any- body they support, and don't you forget it ““This is a prett Bechel and Hascall have been cooking up,” said another republican, ‘“These council bosses have been mplotting and scheming for weeks to run the politics of this county. They want to go to the state convention to show their power and in sult Governor Thayer, but they dare not take the chance on a primary election under the new law. So they are trying to pack a delegation of “their own stripe to represent us at Lincoln. That man Bechel is no better than Rothacker. He has got to be a regular desperado and is capable of most anything. Just look at the beautiful committees that he lrpummd Saturday. He first appointed himself on every one of them and then added enough roustabouts and sluggers to give the clique absolute control over overything. Just think of it, Bechel, Hascall, Rothacker, Mike Lee, Herman Timme and Pat Hawes are appointed to name the delegation to the state conven- tion ! Nice boquet, am't 1t ¥ “‘What about proxies, you say? Why a good deal about proxies! Dave Mercer, on behalt of purity and reform, oftered a resolution to exclude proxies in future conventions. Oil-room Dave was in the committee on a proxy himself, and so was his running-mate, Julius Cooley. The "Judfio" represented a colored sporting man by the name of Payton. Then Joh Sahler was there by proxy, and Lee Es- telle, Pat Hawes, Morrow, the bum plas- terer, Joe Rowles, and other bums whose names 1 forget, were all there acting 88 committeemen on proxies. They were very consistently against proxie Oh, yes, I forgot that Mike Lee wasn't the only man who had two votes, Her- mun Timme carries a tin can by the name of Oft, whom he always puts on as & member and votes for in the com- mittee. ‘limme is one of your model stalwarts whom Bechel appointed with sole power to pass upon the republican- ism of voters in Jefferson precinct, Per- haps you don’t remember that this man Timme organized a Cleveland and Hen- dricks club in his precinct three years ago, although he was then on the republican central committee and at- nded every one of its conventions where enlways trades in votes and proxies. It is an outrage that such disreputable tricks- ters should be given the right to put the voting places into their own houses and exercise autocratio power to reject all votes that don’t suit them. “But thatisonly on a par with the whole performance of ~Saturday. I noticed for instance that a drunken old roustubout by the name of Simpson, from Florence, has been given the same goqex in that precinct that Timme has in efferson, and Bechel located the next primary in Simpson’s saloon." “What are we going to do if this in- famous plot Is}mnhrou h this fall?” said another republican. **We shall have to lay out the gang and their cronies colder than a wedge. They want to make Lee Estelle district judge and Daye Mercer county judge. That would be a pretty mess for republicans to swallow! Iam not alone against this boodle and anarchist outfit. 1f the decent republicans who are expecting to run don't put a stop to this impudentscheme, they will be buried as_badly as Church Howe was last year. The pretense that it is too early to put up a county ticket is too thin. ©= We have a thousand majority in the county, and if a clean ticket 18 put up, it would Fu through without a scratch. Last year, { | remember rllfm, we had our county ticket in the field about the 18th of Sep- tember, and in spite of the Church Howe racket we carried the day. This yoar we have to the 2d of Octover if wa want only one convention, ‘I'he state conven- tion meets on the 8d. Othercounties all over the state have already got their tickets in the field. “What ex- cuse is there for this skullduggery? Why can't Bechel, Hascall and their cap- pers keep their bands off from county affairsy’” Other republicans were even more emphatic in denouncing the deal. Nearly ali of them favor concerted action to repudiate the work of the proxy com- mittee. Steps are to be taken for calling primary elections, holding a republican tonvention and electing a representative delegation to the state convention, —— kettle of fish that SHORT CREDIT SYSTEM. The New Rule Adopted By Omaha Commission Men, For some time past the commission men of Omaha have been considering the advisability of adopting a rule that all goods bought of them shall be paid for on the first of the week nstead of the first of the month. The commission men are. compelled to pay cash for all the goods they buy, and make returns on all sonsigned goods as soon as sold, But Bhey are compelled to wait thurty days for their pay, and 1h many cuses sixty or even ninety days. ln order to pay cash and sell on such long time, it requires an enormous capital to do even a small business. As a natural result many commission houses are forced to borraw atthe banks, in which case the interest amounts to about the same as the commissions or profits on the 8. Other cities of the size of Omaha have a rule that all cash goods should be paid for in cash. In order to introduce this rule here a committee was appointed by the commission men to drsw up an agreement and obtain the signatures of the commission houses. ‘L'his ement in substance is that all bills shali become due on the first of each week and that the commission men make the same ef- forts to collect the bills weekly as were put forth when the collections were made once month. Thus far, the following have signed the agrecment, and it is ex- pected that all will sign as soon as the committee can cail upon them: Weideman & Co., Troxell & Williams, E. Moroney, Branch & Co., Kierchbraun & Son, Rob: ert Purvis, Riddell & Riddell, Whitne{ & Co., C. W. Beall & Co., D. H. Hur e,{. Bolln & Seavers, Freeman & Co., J. M. Forward & Co., Bates, Wilcox & Streeter. The better class of the retail grocers favor the weekl'y payment system, as those wno have always paid up promptly all bills on the first of the month have been forced to compete with those who let their bills run sixty or ninety days, thus having the use of the money 8o much the longer. The new rule will go into effect on October 1. NEWSBOYS AND BOOTBLACKS, Effort Being Made to Provide Them With a Home. The Sunday morning breakfast given under the auspices of the Omaha City Mission to the homeless newsboys and bootblacks ef the city. at the little church on Tenth street between Dodge street and Capitol avenue, was patronized by thirteen happy youngsters yesterday morning. There were not as many boys as provision had been made for, but those present seemed to appreciate the breakfast and the services. Fifty cau be accommodated. At present all the mission aims to do 18 to give the boys a gnod breakfast every Sunday morning at 8:30 o'clock. If it is well patronized, and the number in- creases, sieps will be taken to secure quarters for a home, The homeless news- boys and bootblacks of Omaha have it in their power to secure nice, comfortable lodgings in a short time. All they have to do Is to take breakfast at the City Mission church every Sunday morning, and convince the people in charge that they want something of the kind. Every- thing is free and as much attention will be shown them as if they were dining at a hotel. Arrangements have been made to provide badges for those who attend regularly. AMUSEMENTS, METZ'S GARDEN. Last might Baureis & Puls’ German theatrical company appeared in the in- tensely interesting piece, ‘‘Totts Kop- chen,” introducing the principal mem- bers of the company. The play was ex- cellently produced, affording unusual op- portunity for Mesdames Baureis and Lindemann to distinguish themselves, a fact which none of the ladies overlooked. Mrs. Baureis made an excellent Frau Schraube, Mrs. Lindemann a most interesting Fredericke, _and Mrs. Puls Ahle a winning Han- chen. The latter entertained the lnrge audience with a couple of her de- lightful medleys, which were rendered in a satisfactory manner, hotwithstanding that the lady was suffering from the effects of the season’s work in the open air. The piece is a happy set of com- plications resulting from the existence of a couple of individuals, whose name is Miller, one of whom is a love-lorn swain, the other a student of theology. Letters from the female part of the complication reach the the theologian neophyte and almost paralyze him. This character was most happily enacted by Mr. Baureis, and rounds of applause greeted his suc- cessful work. ext Sudday night will be the last performance of the company be- fore the opening of the winter season at Boyd’s. DISTINGUISHED D]AllkSM General Sheridan Will Not Be Pres- ent at Bellevue. The following letter to General Crook will explain the absence of General Sher- idan from the competition of distin- guished marksmen now being held at Bellevue rifle rang under Colonel Henry: HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES, PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14.—I am directed by Lieutenant-General Sheridan wo inform you that the duties devolved upon him by the president in connection with the celebration in this city of the centennial of the promulgzation of the constitutiou of the United States will prevent his aitendance at the competition of distinguished marksmen now being held at Bellevue, Neb, The lieu- tenant-general further directs me to suggest you to present in his name the medals to the successful competitors and to assure themn and tte other memn:bers of the team of the In- terest which he takes in rifle practice and his appreciation of its great value as one of the elements of the soldier’s instruction which should bear great fruit when broughi to the test of battle. Yours very respectfully, BCE; Bipwn, Lieutenant-Colonel and Aide-de-Camp. Colonel Blunt, nide to General Sheri- dan, will arrive Tuesday morning and go to the mifle range camp. The medals will be presented \Wednesday by General Crook. The train leaves Omaha at 10 a. m. and returns at 8 p. m.. The band of the Second infantry will go down. Sale of Seats for Keene, It should be borne in mind that the sale of seats for the great Keene engage- ment commonces at the box oflice of the Grand Opera house this morning, at 9 o'clock. The extraordinary interest manifested in this event justifies the be- lief that the advance sale will be very large, and that it will be well for every- body to present their orders as early as possible. There will be no advance in prices and we will be mistaken if the ca- F ity of the new Opera house is not h“ y tested during Tom Keene's stay ere. “A Rag Baby,” with Charlie Reed as “Old Sport,” opens at Boyd's opera house to-night. 1f clever comedians, vretty girls, witty dialogue, bright and taking songs, and a8 general atmosphere of “go” can make success, the ‘‘Rag Baby'' is sure to repeat its former bril- liant engagement and furmish a fund of amusement to the Owaha public during the next three day: The Hotel Esmond Fire, OymaHA, Neb.,, Sept. 17.—We wish to acknowledge the prompt and splendid service rendered by the fice department at the fire in our buildinF. and also to say that the Esmond will be in running order in about ten days, fire escapes put on each end of the building, ete.

Sarah McDowell, better known as “Calamity Jane," was arrested yesterday on the eharge of stealing $12 and three gold rings from her landlady. At the time of the theft Mrs. Smith, the land- lady, was asleep, and the rings were taken from hqr gers. AT HOME AGAIN. Facts Ooucerning the Late Interna- tional Bohemian Gymnastic Meet The BEE on several occasions has re- ferred to the excursion of the Bohemians of the world, and especially of this coun- try, to the land ot tneir birth. The in- ternational contest which had been con- templated, because of anticipated trou- ble, was prevented by the Austrian government, but the gymnasts from this country succeeded 1n getting up sn exhi- bition to which objection was not made. Among the visitors from this country were & number from this city. On the arrival of the Bohemian-American turn- ers at Prague they were the recipients of a grand ovation. “ For a week festivities in their honor were held and a district gymnastiv contest was arranged, to give them an opportunity (o show their effi- ciency and the Yrogreu they had made daring the especial instruction of Charles Stulik, who visited this countr, purpose. At this Dr. k. J. Chicago, received the second prize for high ]%?nnlng, and Sahulka, of New York, the prize for swift running. Our own Tony Moravee, the delegate of Omaha's Bohemian Turners, acquitted himself with credit, but gained no prize. His boxing exhibition created a great deal of admiration. While nearly all the dele- Kates have returned to this country, Mor- avee, it seems, has concluded to remain on the old sod. Prof. Stulik, however, who was enguged for a year as a teacher by the National Bohemian-American Turners' association, and who returned with the excursion to his native land, did not remain there. One year’s residence 1n this country has convinced him of the many advantages of a residence here, and ?ust week he arrived on these shores, where he will make his future home. Since his return to Bohemia he has been married, and now brings his wife with him. Kor the present he will make his home at Chicago, where he has been engaged as teacher for members and scholars by the Allied Turner societies. Last week a numerous bmlg of the ex- cursionists returned, and they brought also a costly and beautiful present for the mistress of the white house, Mrs. e- land. It consists of a necklace, asct of earrings and a brooch very elaborately otten up and chased and manufactured Fu Bohemia. Itis of Bohemian garnets and beautiful and precious stones which are found only in thut country. The necklace consists of thirty-eight stars, one for_every state of the union. The brooch is in the shape of an American eagle, holding a golden band with the inscription, “E pluribus unum.” American shield covers th talons of one foot hold a bun i 5, the other a laurel twig. ‘The whole contained in a beautiful case, witha Bohemian and English inscripiion, as follows: To Mrs. Grover Cleveland as a token of Trufnnnd respect by the firstexeursion of the Bohemian Gymnasium association *‘Sokol” of America to Bohemia. The case also contains photographic views of the capital of Bohemia and the city of Prague. The present will be sent from Chicago to Washington probably the coming week. for that aters, of SOUTH 0.“.\":\ NEWS, This evening the city council will hold its ular meeti The city was ed by the usual large number of people Sunday afternoon.

Each used fifteen birds and the result was atie between J. P. Hays und W. McCraith, w ho shot ten each. A rumor was on_the streets Sunday that William Sterritt, a painter, had left the city very uncercmoniously, having failed to call on his creditors, who now mourn him to the tune of several hunarea dollars. Saturday evening a man employed on the mammoth drain for tiie packing houses, ran into the city in a very ex- cited manner and sent a_telegram to Mr. Lanham, contractor at Lincoln, telling him that the foreman of the works in South Omaha had absconded without paying off the men with the money furnished by Mr. Lanham for that pur- pose. Mr. Lanham will be here this morning and the facts of the case will be learned. Sunday afternoon Charles Castler and William Martir, employes of Fowler's packing house, were driving around the city in a single buggy seeing the sights and “irrigating’’ at every opportunity. By the time they reached the corner of J and Twenty-fourth streets the driver could not guide his horse properly, and in attemnting to turn short the whole rig was upset and the horse thrown on ms back. Martin sustained a severe con- tusion of the right shoulder and a few other bruises, but Castler eseaped injury. e They Will Those who once take Dr. Pierce’s ‘“Pleasant Purgative Pellets’ will never consent to use any other eathartic, They are pleasant to take and mild in their operation.
