THE COMING CITY ELECTION, The Offices and the Men Who Are Beeking Them. CANDIDATES ARE PLENTIFUL, Honest Jim Crelghton Declares Him- sclf—~Broatch and His Promses of Patronage—Gossip of the Street, What Are We Here For? The republican eity primaries will be held next Wednesday between the hours of 12 m and 7 p. m., to elect delegates to the repub ¢ convention, which meets tho follow~ ing day, Thursday. In this convention a candidate will be nominated for tne office of Mayor, now held by the Hon. W. J. Broatoh; for the office of city treasurer, now held by John Rush; for the office of city comptroller, now held by Charles 8, Goodrich; for the ofiice of Police Judee, now held by Louis Berka; ana for nine councilmen at large, whose terms be- gin the first day of January. I'he counciimen whose terms expire with the year are Francis £. Bailey, Sixth war Joft' W. Bedford, Eighth ward; John I Hoyd, Seventh ward; Leavett W, Burnham, Sixth wardi Jacob M. Counsman, Fifth ward; Isaac . Hascall, First ward; Michael Lee, Seventh = wurd; Adam Snyder, Third ward, and Charles Van Camp, Second ward. Successors o the above may be selacted in any part of the city, regardless of ward boundaries, yet is understood that an even proportion Wil bo observed if possible. There is considerable of a stir in all wards of the city, and preparations indicite that there is going 10 be the most exciting contest known for vears. The mayoralty, of course, is the big plum. Mayor Broatch has been for montt s organizing, and is reported o bo one of the best orgunizers in the state. He has not only got all the official patronage at the present time, but is promisiug o vast amount in addition, The patronage of the mayor has become almost as extensive as that of the gov- ernor, it not entirely so. He appoints the streev commissioners, city attorney, assistant city attornoy, sidewalk inspector, plumbin inspector, gas inspector, boiler inspector, city physician, city engineer, chairmuan of the board of public works, as their terms ex- pire; clerk of the police court, and any num- ber of deputies and clerks n the various ot- fices. 1t is currently reported that the mayor is making arrangements for a great many chauges, and the parties who are anxious for easy jobs are all being enlisted for the fray. ‘I'he competitors of Mayor Broatch are A. Straug, Thomas Swobe, William F. Bechel, with Dr. Mercer as a possible dark horse. Mr. Strang was a prominent candidate against Broatch two years ago last spring. Strang hus for many years been a dealer in water supplies and steam heating machivery. Recently be has dissolved partnership and is contracting for putting in water works in towns and villages. Mr. Swobe hag not been in public life for eighteen years=when he held the office of clerk of Douglas county. He has resided in Omuha twenty-three years. He was fora Jong time counected with Milton Rogers & Sons aud snbsequently joined J. B. Markel in the management of the Union Paci depot hotels on either side of the river. Later he became a mem- ber of the Pacific hotei company, and after the Millard hotei was completed Swobe and Markel became its landlords. Mr. Swobe owns quite a large interest in the notel. Re- cently he severed relations with he Union Pacific, as that company a few months since bought out the Pucific Hotel company. Hon. W. I, Becpel 1s the auditor of the Pacific Express company, and has served two terms in tire city council, of which body ho was proesiding oficer for three years. He has taken a very active part in city politics for a number of und is treasurer of the republican city central committeo, Dr. Mercer bas been a resident of this city for Lwenty-two or twety-three years, He was for a long time surgeon in chief of the Union Pacific railway hospital. He has more receatly been prominently identified the development of the northwestern part of the city, and has done a great deal toward building it up. He laia out and platted Walnut Hill. He was instrumental in mak- g West Cuming street what it is, and has been the moving spirit in the construction of the motor lin2s of this y. In the latter enterprise his entire time has been taken up for @ few vears past, and_when tho consoli- dation of all lines was affected Dr. Mercer let go of some of his hoidings and has rea- lized a handsome fortune. John Rush is the only canaidate at this time prominently mentioned for the oftice of city troasurer, Leo Helsley is favorubly mentioned for the office of police judge. The friends of Roberi Armstrong claim that he will be the next comptroller. There are other candidates for the positions above named, but they have not figured promi- nently before the public, An energetic canvass is now going on, and the contest for pluces in the council will be spirited. Many of the candidates 8o far men- tioned will have less trouble in carrying their own wards than they will in securing the endorsement. of the convention, The voters throughout the entire city vote for the councilmen at large, whiche makes the canvass much more difficult and which calls for a higher grade of men than would be called out in an election for ward council- men, Mr. James Creighton was asked as to his leaning or preference on the question of the mayorality. I nm not looking s0 much at the man in this business,” sgid Mr. Creighton, ‘‘us at the system of government he is in favor of and wilt enforce, 1 think the propef control of the suloon element will have evarything to do with keeping prohibition out. There are plenty of men who will make all sorts of promises, and they may intend to carry them out, but they lack the backbone to do 80, hat we want is vhe man who has the right idea about good government and the strength to carry it out, I think Mr. Broatch has given us the best government the city has ever had, and I also think that his career in oftice ought to insure his re-election. If ne is nominated I shall do what little Ican to aid hun, and I shall not. be - backward about giving my reasons for so doing.” - Said a prominent democrat who does not want to be quoted by name, *Of course Jim Creighton for Broatoh and so. is Con Gallagher, his son-in-law. Long Jim was very loud about démocrata get- ting out of oftice as soon a8 Harrison ~camg in but he 18 not s0 anxious for Con %o resign as he was @ year ugo. Hut Jim Creighton has always had the ear of Broateh, and more than any- body has been able 1o sway him for his own ends, Ho went out of the board of public works, but got Broateh to pucin the men he wanted. The last but not the least of these was John B. Furay, X ‘‘You know Broatch hates Hascall as the deyil does holy water, but Honest Jim, as he likes to be called, got Broatch to fall in with Hascall in his rad on the eity hall, He let Brennan and bis bondsmen out of their contract and stood in with Jim and Hascall to repudi- ate the Meyers plans and put the city at the expense of a new election. I think it was Jun Creighton who worked Hroatch 1o sign the petition for the Planters’ house postoftice deal. Of course Jim Creighton is for Broatch but let me tell you, he can't garry a corpor- al's guard of democrats with him.” Take Notice! ‘The Ninth ward republicans will hold a caucus ut 2008 Farnam stroet, Tuesday oven- iug, ut 7:80 o'clock, for the purpose of select. ing a ticket for the city primaries.

The Real Estate exchange sprang a schemo yesterday morning which, 1f successfully carried out, will endear the organization to the merchants and business men of the Bitye The scheme is not a new one, being noth- ing mors nor loss than the extension of the system of local trains on the various roads leading into Omaha. The members of the exchange are in earnest in the matter, and are going to pre- sent the claims of Omaha to the railway companies in such a manner that they can- not well afford to ignore yhem. President Hartman stated that the Mis- souri Pacific is running a local train from Falls City to St. Joseph.and daily taking a large amount of trade that properly belongs to Omaha to the Missouri town. Then on the north, the residents of Oakland, Ban- croft and a number of good Nebraska towns are compelled to goto Sioux City with their trade, as thoy ot come:to Omaha, as the traing are now run without having to spend a night here. Me. Hartwan stated that the exchange had decided to appoint a committee to call upon the managers of the Missouri Pacific and the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneap- olis & Omana railway companies and see if they cannot be induced to put on daily traing to Omaha at once for the accommodation of people living within a radius of 100 miles who want to make their holiday purchases in this city. The committee selected will be composea of the following gentlemen: J. B, Evans, M, A. Upton, Alvin Saunders, Mayor Broatc! Herman Kountze, Fraok Murphy, A. P Hopkins, C. 8. Raymond, W. A. Paxton, Milton Rogers, W. J, Mount, M. ieliman, A. J. Poppleton, J, P. Nichols, O. M. Carter, C. H. Dewey, N. B, Falconer, A. 8. Stiger, J. H. Millard, A. R. Dafrene, H. McCord, W. L. Parrotte, F. P. Kerkendall, L. ) Bennett, W.V, Morse, S, P, Morse, C. Shi erick, Euchd Martin, J. S. Gibson. . Rose- i M. Hitcheock and I. C. Wilcox. cretary of the exchange read a letter from H. A. Phillips, of Gloversville N. Y, Who contemplates removing his glove fac- tory to a point west of the Mississippi river, He has received offers from Des Moines and Denver and was waiting to hear from Omaha, The letter was written to Mr. A, P. Hopkins and was referred by him to the exchange. A committe of the latter will confer with Mr, Phillips_and see that he has proper m- ducements offered to securo the location of his factory in Omaha. President Hartman announced that the ex- change was not a political organization, and would not express its opinion by a vote of any matter before the people; but the body had agreed to allow certamn parties to ex- press their views in short speeches for and against the bond propositions at the city olections. Short spceches on this subject will probably be mude at to-duy’s meeting of the exchange. ‘The blackboard in the exchange rooms has been completed, and hercafter the property listed each day wiil be written on the board for the benetit of members and visitors.

The Commission’s Action on tho Pub- lication of License Anplications, The fire and police commission held a meeting last night, with ail the members present except Mayor Broatch, The charges against Officer Dibbern, preferred by *‘Dr.” Siominski, were dismissed, and then Ser- geant Ormsby had Officer McBride fined one day’s pay for smoking a cigar while on duty. Officer Hinchey was fined threo days’ pay for leaving his beat, and *‘Count’’ Pulaski pleaded not guilty to being aslecp on his beat. ‘The charge against Pulaski was made by Ormsby, and the former assorts that it is a piece of spite work, and that the sergeunt *'has 1t 1 for him.” Hence the cuso was re- ferred 1o the committee on men and discipline for a rigid inve stigation, Officer Dubois has a sick wife, and his leave of absence was oxtended, while Officer Marncll was granted ten days off_duty. Driver Osborn will get three days and Fire- man Tom Davis ten days from duty. A. R. Hearst was_mado special policeman at the “Thompson-Houston electric light vlant, after which a uniform button for the police and five departments was adopted. The board then opened-bids for 2,000 feot of hose for the fire department. ‘The follow- g are the bidders: Omaha Kubber company—Hose guarun- tecd three years, 97)¢ conts per foot. Kish vrand, 9214 cents. Hoso warranted to stand 850 pouuas pressure, 50 cents. A better quality than the last quoted was offered at 5 cents, The bid of . B.

A similar quality at §0 cents by C. H. Smith, agent of the Gutta Percha & Rubber manufacturing company. All bids were referred to the committee on proverty, which will meet to-day. Mr. Gilbert then offered tne following res- olution, which was adopted, after which the board adjourned. 2 Whereas, The law relatng to liquor licenses provides that “no action shall be taken upon said application until at least two weeks’ notice of tho filing of the samo has been given by publication in a newspaper publisued in said covnty having the larges publication therein, therefore Resolved, ‘Ihat the editors and publishiers of the weeisiy, aaily morning, daily evening and other nowspapers published in Douglas county, Nebraska, bo and they are hereby required to furnished the board of five and police commissiioners nnder their respective oaths as to the circulation of and number of subscrivers to sach weekly, daily mornin duily evening aud other newspapers pub- nshed in said county, and such other evi- denco as the board may sk for, Fire on Wood Pavement.

His First Chapter to the Ministers Favors Broatoh. . THE MONKEY AND CATSPAW, Rev. Dr. Duryea Fires a Broadside Into the Evanxelization of the ¥. M. O. A, Eto., Bro. Minlsterial Activity, ¥ The second session of the ministerial urion was held at theYoune Men's Christian associa- tion rooms yesterday morningto complete the organization. A large number of the clergymen of tho city wero present.Just before the meeting was called to order a committee consisting of Paul Vandervoort, Major Clarkson, Mr. Gil- bert, Josiah Kent, doe Redman, Mr, Irving, Mr. Grant and Mr. Gelden filed in to present 10 the ministerial union an appeal to support W. J. Broawh for mayor in the coming primaries. After prayer by Dr, Thain, the political delegution were invited to state their busi- ness, Panl Vandervoort arose and delivered the following: ““‘We are here as representatives of a large body of influential citizens in a cause in no sense partisan. ~ We have decided to come out boldly as champions of Sunday observ- ance and the closing of saloons on the Sab- bath. We have selected as our candidate for mayor a man who has held that position for two yoars and has closed the saloons at mid- night and on Sunday —a principle so dear to our hearts. ““We are here to declare unreservedly that we are in favor of Sunday closing and the shutting of saloons at miduight. “‘Wa are here to ask for your moral ald as we are unable to win this fight without it. 1f you help us, we are sure of a triumphant victory, Ministers have helped the cause in Denver and other cities and we are here to appeal to you to join with us to carry out this grand reform. At the late Catholic con- ventiou, Sunday closing was eudorsed, and if you see fit you can also help this grand and sucred cause. We propose to give our hearty, enthusi- astic and individual support to Mr. Broawh and we ask for you and your constituents to vote for us in the cause.” Major Ciarkson followed with these re- marks: *“This is the first time I have appeared be- fore any body of clergymen in anything con- neoted with politics. "Here is something in which you and myself are as much interested as those who make their living in politics. Our present mayor has closed the saloons on Sundays and ut nighvapd given us one day in ‘which we can have perfect rest. We would like seven duys of closed saloons, but one is better than nothing, and this one is @ grand gain, ln the coming city- election, there is but one party pledged to carcy on this good work. The larger olement 1 fear is against us and we are here to urgently ask you not as individuals but as representative citizens, to lay aside the cloth and enter this campaign vigorously and with all your heart. On Wednesday next occur the primaries. There will be three or four candidates there who will ask for your suffrage and but one s pledged to the observance of the law. We beheve the Lord 1s on our side. See your people personally and help us all you can.” “The political delegation then withdruw. ‘The first matter attended to after this was the perzanent organization of the union, after wiich the request of Mr, Broatch's friends was considered. Rev. Mr. Harsha moved that the union merely place itself on record as being thor- oughly in fayor of Sunday closing, buv pledge themselves to no candidute. Rev. Mr. Merrill thought that it was un- necessary for a ministerial body to pass such a motion, as they were individually supposed to be in favor of Sunday closing. He was opposed to manipulating his constituency, as Mr. Vandervort termed his church people,in Tavor of any political party. Rev. Mr. Williams said that he was born and bred a democrat, but would vote for no one but & man 1 favor of Sunday closing. Rev. Mr. Palm said that it looked as though the plav of the political delegation which had just left was to use the ministers to pull the chestnuts out of the fire. Re- porters of the leading pavers were present, | and the ministers present would pe adver- tised to the world as catspaws. After considerable discussion it was de- ! cided, on motion of Mr. the motion on the table. ‘The work of forming the union into a por- manent organization was commenced by the following resolution by Rev. Willard Scott: Resolved, That we bereby constitute our- selves a body to be known as the Ministerial Union of Omaba, which shall be unsectarian wmats character and shall consist of such clergymen of the city and vicinity as shall sympathize with the objects of the union as proposed and shall enroll thomselves . us members, and of such others not clergyman as may, from time to time, be proposed by the president. and secretary and be elected by the body at a regular meeting, Rev, Mr. French wanted the word ‘‘evan- gelical” substituted for the word ‘*‘unsec- tarian,”” He insisted that it would be un- pleasant to have in the association anyone who denied the divinity of our Savior. It would not do to have associated together those who are for Christ and those who are against Him. He hoped the christian broth- ers would assert their loyalty to Christ by making the association an evangelical one, Rev. Mr. Harsha opposed Rev. Mr. French’s amendment, by remarking that the associatiation was nota theological institute, but a society for the betterment of humanity. Rabbi Rosenau was present, and was inter- ested in the organization. He had heard the rabbi preach and he advocated noble and moral actions. All ministers alike were working for the advancement of morality. Rev. Mr. French’s amendment was lost and the original motion was carried. The commiltee on organization, consisting of Rev. W.J, Harsha, Rev. J. S. Detweilor aud Dr. A. W. Lamar, made its report, in which were the following recommendations: 1. That the officers of the Ministerial union be a presiaent to hold office for three months, and a secretary and treasurer to hold oftice six months. 2. That the president be elected from the several denominations in alphabetical rota- tion, tho brethren of each to nominate the candidate. 3, That the secretary and treasurer be ap- pointed from the union irrespective of de- nomination. 4. That an executive committee of three members to hold office for thcee mouths be appointed from the union, 5. That our first president, representin the Haptist denomination, be the kev. A. Lawmar; thatour first sccrotary and treas- urer be Rev. C. N. Dawson, and our execu- tive committeo consist of Rev. Dr, J. T, Dur- yea, Dean Gardner and Rey. H. L. House, Dr. Duryea then took the floor and deliy- ered an addre on the ‘‘Relation of the Young Men's Christian Association to tLe Church.” “It is the work of the church,” said .the speaker, *'to perform all the functions of Christ us a redeemer, Organization is not the Henaersop, to lay oanse of 1ife, but life is the cause of organiz. ation, It was the needs of the poo- ple that called "the church into ex istence.

'The mem- bers are not gathered together in the cause of Clirlst. It is not tHe duty of the members of a Young Men's .Ghiristian association to preach or be pregched to, or to control the missions. I have Known of a number of as- sociations that wef& €onduocted on that erro- neous principle and they all failed, “The mission of the Young Men's Christian association is different. Tts rooms should be open night and day. The poor young men of the city who have nothing but a cheerlo: room to o to should be inade welcome, They should move about in froedom in the Young Men'’s Christian association rosms with the best young Christian men in the city, The constant contact of Christian manlir.ess would have its effect, and tney would uncon- sciously be drawn to Christianity through human fellowship. “Jhere is a number of misdirected young men who imagine because they can mark a bible with red, or black or blue ink, and mitke marginal notes that they are born Moodys. They are soft, sweet follows who have more enthusiasm than judgment; they have earnestness, but lack wisdom, and thoy do the cause of Christ influite harm through their gift of gab. We want a stal- wart, breezy, upright maniinoss, and not lisping of commonplaces, The cause Las been hurt by persons bitohing in at froe meetings and exhorting.” At the close of the talk a short discussion of the lecture fol- lowed, which was terminated by Secretary Jenner, of the Young Men's Christian asso- ciation, bristling up and clauning that Dr. Duryea dian't know what he was talking about, and who asked to be allowed to prepare a paper for tho next ineeting aisproving the statements of tho speaker. A motion was made and carried giving him the required permission. The meeting then adjourned. ——— Chitdhood's Happy Days.

Heury Fuerman, the man who shot and killed Saloonkeeper Schwenk at West Point, Sunday night; is in Omaha and at liberty. After the shooting, as reported in Tum Ber's telogram, excitement ran high and talk of lynching was freely indulged in. Fuerman disappeared and the report had it that he had been brought to this city in care of the sherift. Ioquiry at the police station and county jail revealed the fact that the prisoner had not been brought to either place. At 11 o'clock yesterday morning Fuerman was meton Fifteenthstroet by areportor. He was alone, and, whon spoken to, refused to say where the sheriff was, who is reported to have him in charge. Fuerman talced fraely about the tragic affair, and feels confident that he can prove a clear case of self défense. “lama ni}rm‘. watehmun at West Point,” said he, “aud bave been for some time. Sun- duy might I wentinto Schwenk's saloon at midnight or & few mizutes after and told him ad better close up. Our county clerk was in the saloon ut the time and [ tried to get him to o home. Schwenk told me to go out of the place. 1told bamI had a right there and would not go until the place was closed up. Schwenk then came around from behind the bar and ordered me out of the place. I'refused togo and finaliy defied any of them to put me out. With that Schwenk started for me, uud three men wno were. in the place turned on me. Schwenk grabbed me and pushed me into @ corner of the roow. He had one hand on my throat and 1 reached for my pistol with my right hand, As I drew my revolver, Schwenk grabbed my haod and jammed the revolver into my face stunning me. I pulledthe trigger three times. One of the shots us I found after- warls went into the door case and hit no one. Another went through Schwenk's head and one of them hit Otto Geisen.

He has been hov at me for a long while because I tried to make him keep his saloon closed after mid- night. We have had some words but never any serious trouble until last night.” James E. Kelly, an Omaha attorney, was at West Point Sunday nizht. His statement of the case agrees in the main with that made by Fuerman. He says that Fuerman would certainly have been lynched if he had mnot ieft the city, Fuermuan is a man about thirty years of age and formerly resided i Omaba, He worked in the shops several years ago and lived out on Sixteenth street. He is murried and has a family living at West Point. Carl Schwenk, the saloon man who was killed, was fifty-two years of age and a brother of Dock Schwenk, of Norfolk. He leaves a family. A telogram was received from West Point last night by Chief of Police Seavey stating that the coroner's jury in the case of Fuer- man had asked that . he Dbe held.
