All Tactions Realy for a Fight at the Primaries Tomorrow, DEMICRATS CANNOT GET TOGETHER Local Sentiment Divide Silver and Administeation Wings of tho Party-Each Sido € and Hetwed Conced The democrats of Douglas county are hav- Ing & very lively ante-campaign battle this week, and a great many of them find it difficult to describe just “where they are at” The primaries will be held Thursday afterncon and evening 1 sides working to capture the delegations There seem (o be three factions in this preliminary skirmish—the administration democrats, the free silver-Bryan democrats and the hired men who been bought to do the bidding of bosses and prevent fusion or the p ment of the populist gubernatorial date. The administration cohorts lled with the railroad crowd headed by T Castor and supported by the Burlington political bureau. The latter influences are being put forward to assist In the success of Majors The administration by Mr. Miller, enjc Job, Charles Conno; and are have railway ible endorse the candl- al- are democracy 18 headed ing a_ soft government er and John McMillan, who expect to fall into the postoffice jobs here and In South Omaha, and others who want to curry favor with the powers that be, In Washington, They are working to send an anti-Bryan delegation to the convention. Then there are a good many democrats who say mothing, but saw wood, and look pleased when fusion is advoc and ap- pear noncommit'al when the administra- tion is mentioned A reporter of The Be: interviewed a num- ber of the leaders yesterday. HIS RE TS TO BRYAN. 8. R. Rush, chairman of the democratic county central committee, in reply to the interrogatory, “Is it true that you, with other democrats, are in constant consuita- tion with Toblas Castor as to means of carrying Douglas count “I scarcely know Mr. Castor, corversed with him five minutes in my life The statement that I took dinner with him on Monday is entirely untrue, and made for the purpose of deceiving and misleading voters as to the real question at issue in this county. “The fact Is we are not waging a fight against Mr. Bryan. Every candidate for dclegate to the county convention to seloct delegates to the state convention will be pledged to support him for United States senator. No one {n this campalgn has a word to say against Mr. Bryan personally. rotwithstanding the editorial page of the World-Herald, for which he says he is re- spensible, §s daily filled with sereeds vilify Ing and deliberately and knowingly mis- representing the best and truest democrats In Douglas county—the men who have de- voted their time and mon-y to democratic success, and who have never faltered when the fight was on. These are the men, the organized democracy of this county, who are branded “liars,” “hypocrities,” “‘cowards” and the rest. Why are they so denounced? Simply because they are contending for the national democratic platform on the silver question as against the World-Herald's plat fcrm, “the fre: and unlimited coinage of silver at a ratio of 16 to 1.” That paper less than a year ago told the democrats of Devglas county that 25 to 1 was the proper ratio, and that the ratio that it now ad- yodates meant nothing less than damnation to the business Interests of the country. “Myself with other democrats contended and worked for that construction of the Chi- eago national democratic platform a year ago and no amount of abuse by Mr. Bryan's paper can deter us from what we believe to _be right and democratic. We have never disputed him the right to think and express himself as he chose on party issues, and we insist that the thumb-screw should mot be applied to us. The old-time democrats who have spent their lives in the service of their party have a duty to perform Thursday after- noon. The combined business Interests of Douglas county have equally an Important duty to perform, The organized democracy of Douglas county is in duty bound on that day to see to it that the national platform of their party’s faith is not spit upon and stamped In the dust. If I mistake not, thes Interests will be found standing shoulder to shoulder at this primary election, battling for their convictions and the highest and most authoritative expression of democratic principle: Dan B. Honin, editor of the Democrat I am a fusionist, and am for Holcomb all the time. I think that any poor man who works and votes for a straight ticket this fall in jures his chances of eating three square meals a day this winter. The bankers and the B. & rallroad are against the poor man’s interest in this campaign, and 1f the demoeratic state convention nominates a man for governor other than Holcomb I will turn my paper Into a populist sheet and join that party. I am for Bryan for senator, Boyd for congress * and Holcomb for governor. We cannot endorse the populist county ticket, nor fuse with them. NOTHING BUT STRAIGHT GOODS. Dr. G:orge L. Miller, collector of customs— I am in favor of a straight democratic ticket. No other ticket is admissable. I have no choice for governor, but hope that the democrats will nominate some man of character and ability. 1 will not approve an endorsement of Holcomb. Fusion always means a sacrifice of principl:s, and I cannot favor it. Men who are ambitions and are seeking office propose to disrupt the party by advocating fusion and a general sacrifice of our principles will find themselves with- out a following In the near future. I am in favor of Bryan for the United States senate, on the Chicago national platform but not in the position he now assumes. I want to see a straight leglslative ticket, and would préfer an overwhelming defeat to a compromised victory with the populists. Oil and water will not mix In politics, W. F. Wappich, sicretary of the Jack- sonlan club—I am in favor of a fusion on the legislative ticket, and to help the populists elect a senator and two members of the lower house, but the balance of the ticket should be straight. I think Clem Deaver should withdraw from the congressional rs In favor of Boyd, in consideration of our ac- tive support of Holcomb. We are for Brya first, last and all the time, but unless Deaver withdraws I fall to see how we can endorse and work for Holcomb. The democrats of Douglas county ar: going to put up a ticket that will commend itself to the voters. We are in fighting trim this fall, and if the popu- lists act fairly we can win. Louis Hoehme, deputy United States mar- shal—The administration democrats will turn down Bryan and the free silver democrats I am not in favor of fusion on any part of the ticket, but if our state convention nomi- nates or endorses Holcomb 1 will give him my support. Councilman E. E. Howell—I am sure that Bryan delegates will carry Douglas county at the coming primaries. This will help Hol- comb, and I_am in favor of a fusion on the head of the state ticket, as well as on the - county nomine:s. We will declsively settle this at the primaries on Thursday. CREDIT OF THE STATE. Henry W. Yates, President Nebraska Na- tional Bank, B. & M. Rallroad Depository— I bave a favorable opinion of Mr. Holcomb, and regard him as a falr minded man, but eannot support him because I believe that a popullat victory would be disastrous to the financial interests of the state. We want ‘lmlghl oyt demogratic ticket this fall. 1 thivk the democratic party is more than the man, and if it is not, I want to get out of it. _As I understand the subject, the national platform should show the prinei- ples of the candidates, We have no more right (o cancel that part of the platform re- lating to our~financial principles than we I-Ave 10 alter the part relating to the tariff. \* reason I caungt see how any gne un clalm fo bs & dbiibcrat abd. wish The platform to conform with the pecullar prinal- gl:l of another party, the same as is now ing attemp!ed. Charles H. Rich, Merchant—I am a Bryan man and billeve In fusion and free silver, 1 will vote for Holcomb whether a demo- erat is nowinated or not, and I know a lot ted ”mu who are in the same gesl-| A tion as I am We can and will earry Doug- las county, and we won't stand any gig rules from the administration democrats. Councilman A. B. McAndrews says that he has canvassed portions of the city and is confident that the Bryan delegates will earry the county at the primaries. The country precincts are regarded as being strictly In line, and the free silverites do not believe the Cleveland's minions will cut nearly so large a figure as they expect to this fall DOANE WANTS HOLUOMB, Judge Doane is a fuslonist to the that he would have the democratic convention refrain from nominating a didate for governor. He would, however, nominate some -candidates for state offices. “I would do this,” sald the judge, “in order 1o preserve the party organization. I am in hopes that the democratic state convention | will endorse Judge Holeomb outright, but if it does not do that [ hope to see it leave | the governorship blank. 1 desire to see the Douglas county convention endorse Bryan and his platform of principles. This, of course, means the free col of sil But 1 am doubtful of this being done W. D. McHugh Is not thinking the governorship these days.

Piatti Is in favor of the democrats ning from making a nomination for gov- ernor if it is not possible to secure a demo- cratic endors:ment of Judge Hocomb.

It was a ease of where the lion and the lamb cuddled down side by side, and as soon as (he caucus had nominated and elected Abe Waggoner for president and J. D. LaCourse for secretary the work of making up a couple of slates was prosecuted. Without beating around th bush, the following named gentlemen were selected as caucus del to the state convention: Abe Waggoner, P. Smith, A. Jackson, John W. Dennis, James Schneiderwind, Mike | Hogan, H. J. Farmer and J. D. LaCourse. There were a few more democrats who had not been provided for, and in order to pre- serve harmony, the following gentlemen were selected as proper parties Lo go to the county convention T. A. Megeath, nus, M. Fleis, Crooks, W. Murphy, W. L. | Seventh Ward De Something like thirt the Seventh ward met str and Woolworth where they Andy Murphy, J. B. Huse W. A. Ackerman W. K. Jacobs, E. H. B. Newcomb, Ramsey Webber, John Koveski, Mike Herald and J. D, Murphy To show where they stood, and in order that there might be no mistake, T. A. Me. geath moved that the delegates selected use all honorable means to secure the boosting of Bryan Into a senatorial seat, while Ram- Crooks followed with the same kind of a motion looking to the election of Boyd for congress. Both motions were carried with a whoop, and the chairman said that the work of the caucus had ended. L. Mag- Complicates Matters, The acticn of the county commissioners in changing the boundaries of the commission- ers' districts so that the First ward was taken from the distriet from which a com- missioner must be chosen this year has com- plicated matt:rs considerably in the demo- cratic calculations. Tom Lowry's heart was broken, as he had the pine pretey well set to capture the nomination. William also a Vs democrat, was a very - thus ndidate, and had probably done more to get his party's endorsem:nt than ny other aspirant for the office. The county rd's action left Major Dennis of the nth ward as the only pronounced candi- date on the democratic ticket for the nomina- on, but the addition of the Fourth ward to Stenberg's district has brought Truman Buck, W. J. Mount and Captain W. H. Ijams out as available men for the place and Mr. Stenberg may have a stronger man than Lowry to beat at the polls in case he is renominated by the republicans. George Sabine of the Seventh is a candidate for the republican nomination in opposition to Sten- berg and Is mustering quite a following. South Omaha republicans are very much put out by the action of the county board 0 changing the boundaries of the distriets. liey assert that the addition of the First ward to the district in which South Omaha Is situated makes it almost hopeless for a republican fo attempt to make the race for commissioner in that district.

Several members objected to the ordinance on account of the prospective submission of the canal proposition, which, if it carried, would supply the power for the dynsmos and thus render the putling in of a steam plant unnecessary. It was also urged that the submission of an additional bond proposi- tion at this time might endanger the suc- cess of the canal proposition.

His son by her wedded a half-breed maiden. Margaret Young is the daughter of that son. Through the death of I the heirs apparent to the throne, Miss Young found herself called upon to assume the power of mistress of the islands. This news was conveyed to her at Apla some months ago by a delegation of chiefs from Manua, and she was forced by the laws of hereditary obtaining in the southern archi- pelago to accompany them back to Tau, where she was immediately installed as queen. Great Interest Is lent to the case of the girl, who is but 22 years of age, by the re- port that she is highly educated, and was at the time of her sudden call from Apla hap- pily pursuing the course of her studies at a Catholic convent. Captain Luttrel of the Ramey, and his wife, who accompanied him on his last trip, were the first white people per- mitted to interview the queen, and obtained from her majesty the story that her life was one of misery in spite of the profound re- spect shown her by her native subjects. She is a ruler who is compelled to maintain an odious reserve, the sanctity of her dwelling being rigidly preserved by fierce w who stand ready to decapitate the b truder who dares to enter the queen presence without first being espe ap- pointed by the spirit fires and summoned by a council of chiefs, The grand chief of the group is the only man that is allowed to approach the queen, explained Captain Luttrel. “He attends to | her wants, assisted by two maids who never leave her side except when they are called upon to do her bidding. Should any native desire to pay tribute to her in the shape of fish or fowl, he must fasten his gift upon the end of a bamboo pole, advance with closed and thrust the stick through the door of the palace. “Queen Margaret is not outside her cabin limit.

This verdict has been given by the best jury ever assembled for such a purpose, backed by the recommend- ation of the Chief Chemist of the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., who made an elabor- ate examination and test of all the baking powders. is pre-eminently the highest authority on such matters in America. This verdict conclusively settles the question and proves that Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is superior in every way to any other brand. This Norg.~The Chief Chiemist rejected the Alum baking powders, stating to the World's Fair jury that be considered them unwholesome, scoted by win- dows and door itis often much batter to fur- nish it in sep- arate install- ments rather than by complete pleces. Thus, a Hall Stand subdivides itself into a Hall Mirror, a Hull Table and a Hall Chair. There may be good light for the Mirror beside a window, the Table can be placed under the stairs and the Chair in the corner. Thus three pleces are stowed, when a regular Hall Stand would have been impossible. Again, The Hall Stand being large naturally dwarfs the size of the Hall. But divide it into three parts and it is rightly proportioned to the apartment. Don't buy anything in the furniture line without looking through our stock, Chas. Shiverick & Co.
