The management talked openly about the eaterorise as one that natarally belonged to and shouid be backed by that corporation. Now, however, when the demand for such a road has reached tho point where It 100ks as if somebody must act things are different.

BROATOH'S DUPLICITY, flis Remarkable Performance Bi.yd's Wednesday Night. Rev. T. S, Fitzgerald, president of Creigh- ton college, Wednesday night delivered an eloquent lecture under the auspices of tha St. Vincent de Paul society oun “Christ and Poverty.” Mayor Broatch introduced the gentlema: Speakivg on the subject, a leading business man said: **I think Mr.Broatch offered an un- pardonable insult to the audience, and at the same time showed how little he knew of the duuy devolving upon him as the party se- lected to ntroduce the lecturer. “What would have becn in place would have been u few words, if indead they were required atall, to tell the audieuce some- thing about the reverend and eloquent gen- tleman which was not already kuown to it. “Instead, however,ho took oceasion to feli- citate himself upon the fact that the Cath lic congress had, as it were, sustained him in bis alleged closing of the saloons. Even if it were true, as held by the mayor, that the saloons were all closed by him, it showed poor tuste to advert to it fn co nection with a discussion which compre- hended anl{ the Savior and his poverty. The mayor's talk was vulgarimprovement of the opportunity to advertise himself, which was far from aporeciated, ““Again, his honor, smd: *We, the Protes ants of Omaha, have shown our appreciation of this [thesupportof the Catholic clergy| ¥ joining hands with the Roman Catholics in electing, as my successor, a Roman Catho- lic who I pelieve will earry out the des- tinies of his church in this mutter.” "’ *“I'his statement is in poor accord with that made by Mr, Broatch the day after election, when he stated that he had not only voted for Mr. Lininger, but had ordered his coach- man to do tho sawe thing.
