The magnet that draws the politician there 18 a strong one and its force is irresistible More frequently it is personal interests to be served that directs the footsteps of the manipulator of wires to his honor's quarters, but occasionally it is curiosity that prompts the visit. No macter what the circumstan the politictan drifts in and out during the day. This has been going on lively for a week, and_betore the eventful first Tuesday in July rolls around it will become a mad scramble for an audience with the mayor. Omaha’s chief executive permits the laten string to dangle from the outside, and all comers are treated with courtesy and their words given due weight, Simmered down, it i8 & procession of appeals for the appoint- ment of friends of those in line as members of the Board of Public Works, The first Tuesday of July of each y brings with it a charter provision for a reorganization of the board. The mayor is the appointing power and the council the confirming. Alrcady there have been filed with Mayor Bemis nearly a score of ap- lications. The mayor listens to all, eeps his own counsel and when the proper time comes his views on the matter will oe made known in the shape of appointment.

As.
