THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1900 WANT T0 BE THE NESSENGER Presidential Electors Are Anxions to Bear News to Washington, WARM WELCOME IS AWAITING THE COURIER Republicans Chosen to Cast braska’s Vote Will Assemble Linceln Early in Jhnuary te Discharge Thelr Daties. The eight citizens chosen to cast electoral vote of Nebraska will meet in Linceln on January 12, in the language of aturday preceding the | uary.” The electors will be called upon to decide a lively rivalry among their number as to whose shall be the homnor of bearirg the glad tidings to Washington. The avowed applicants for this distinction are J. L. Jacobson of Omaha, John F. Nesbit of Tekamah. R. B. Windham of Plattsmouth and Joseph J. Langer of Wilber. There are two addl- tional candidates who have enjoined thelr colleagues not to reveal their names, leav- ing only John L. Kenoedy of Omaha and one other not actively in the race. Bach of the electors has a budget of so- MNeitations from uis fellow offictals, and they In turn have for the most part sent out similar missives. No delegate has made a pledge except to himselt and the confusion will not be strajghtened out until the day of meeting. The official messenger must arrive in Washington before the fourth Monday in Junuary with his official certificate sealed, suthenticated and ready to be placed in the hands of the president of tho semate. A mecond copy of the certificate is sent by mall, providing against any possible accl- dent to the messenger. A third copy of tho officfal vote Is placed in the hands of Judge Munger of the United States district court as a final safeguard. If the recorded voto does mot reach Washington by Jan- uary 2§ the secretary of state will call for the copy in the hands of the district judge. Congress will be In sesslon when the mes- wenger arrives and there is no doubt as to the cordiality of his welcome. the Chief Recompenne. For his services the mossenger recelves only mileage one way at the rate of 25 cents per mile. This amount, however, s moro than sufficient to cover his expenses both ways. The electors receive $5 per day and 10 cents mileuge, the same compensation as that allowed members of the legislature, The first duty of the electors Is to as- semble at Lincoln on January 12 to fill vacancles, if any exist, and to recelve thelr certificates of election from the governor. ‘This document contains the assurance that the electors have been duly chosen and are qualified to cast the vote of the state. The certificates aro issued in triplicate, one copy golng to tho national secretary of etate and one being attached to the official Teturns sent to Washington The electors meet a second time on the following Monday, when their vote is cast for president and vico president separ- arately and for the special messenger. The statute formerly fixed the date of meeting upon the first Wednesday in December, but this was consldered too close upon the heels of electlon. C. ¥.

Merit Always Wins, The hard times of the past four years have been very destructive to all fndustrl affairs and the raflroads have had unusual amount of difficulty in making both ends meet. Roads that have during this trying poriod earned dividends while at the samo time affording high-class transportation fa- cllities to thelr patrons have Indeed been fortunate. And such an event speaks well for the management of the roads. The record of the Nickel Plate road dur- 1ng the recent period of industrial depres- slon has Indeed been remarkable and it speaks most eloquently of the coneserva- tive judgment of the managers. For this road has made great and stewdy progress in the materlal improvement of its road- way and appliances and in perfecting its equipment. The interests of the public have been in no wise neglected. In fact the success of this road has inured to the benefit of the public s much It not more than to the stockholders. The condition of the road today shows this. Great and val- uable improvements of a permanent char- acter have been made in the shape of strengthening the roadway, bridges and other accessories and procuring new and improved safety appllances. New coaches have been added, elegant Pullman sleeping cars put on, mew and powerful engines have been placed in service and everything has been done to raise the standard of the road, to perfect its service and to &lve It a leading place among the bost roads in the country. The result has been obvious. The people have observed the progressive spirit of this road, have given it a liberal patronage, have enjoyed its ex- cellent facilitles, and that tells the whole story of a highly successful enterprise, Among the most noteworthy improves ments effected by the Nickel Plate road s the introduction of a first-class dining car service, which has won the approval of the best class of patrons. Then the coaches Bave been flluminated by the brilliant Pintsch gas, heated by steam and placed in care of a colored porter, sa the passengers have had the best that momey can afford at the lowest rates. The through train service of the Nickel Plate, running in connection with the West Shore and Fltch- burg rallroads over the great Hoosac tun- nel route between New York, Boston and Chicago, ranks with the best In the coun- try and has become deservedly popular. Blegant new coaches aud palatial Pullman buffet sleeping cars run through without change. The service is unexcelled, tho time fast, scemery most fascinating. Located along the south shore of Lake Erfe are many substantial and attractive summer resorts that are yearly growing in popularity and this class of travel prom- ises a contlnual increasing source of rev- enue to the Nickel Plate road. the | TORE TODAY All the samples of ladies’, men's and chil- dren's hosiery from Wesendonck, Lorenz & 0., 44 and 46 Leonard st., New York. 25C WINTER HOSIERY, 12%4C PAIR 1,000 dozen samples of ladies’, children's and boys' fast black hose, fine and heavy- | ribbed, fleece-lined, finest quality, every | pair guaranteed perfect, regular price 26e, all sizes go at 12%c palr.

Secretary Utt of the Commercial club was engaged yesterday fu polnting out Omaha's strong points as & convention city to Rev. Willilam Mohler of Falls City and Rev J. B. Moore of Octavia. The two guests comprise a committee of the German Bap- tist Brethren, who will hold their annual convention next May at some polnt in Ne- braska. This much was decided at, the meeting last spring, the selection of the exact location belng left to the committee, The last convention of the Brethren was attended on its most important day by 60,- 000 delegates and visitors, the denomina- tion being particularly strong in the com- munity. In Nebraska there are 1,300 mem- bers and thirty churches, so that a good attendance is also guaranteed next spring. A rate of one fare for the round trip has hitherto been obtained and a large number of enstern churchmen will take advantage of such an inducement on this occaslon. Nine-tentls of the membership are pros- perous farmers and are looked upon as de- sirable immigrants, The committee visited the Collseum and other locations where a huge tent might be pltched; but did not announce its opin- fon. It will also Inquire into the facilities at Lincoln, Hastings, Grand Island, Fre- mont and Kearney, although it 1s not deemed probablo that any of these towns can show its ability to adequately handle tho crowds expected. Avother matter taken up at the noon mecting of the executive committee was the selection of a delegation to the Irriga tlon congress in Chicago. The following will_represent the club: Euclid Martin, J. B. Utt, Lewls Reed, George H. Payne, George M. Lee, John Steele, A. Hospe, C. G. Pearse, Hugh McIntosh, Rome Miller, R. I'. Hodgin, E. E. Wright, R. W. Rich- ardson. A formal notice was received from Spies- baker & Son Co. of Keokuk, la, that it had accepted the proposition of the Com- mercial club and would begin the transfer of its millinery house to Omaha at once. A request for assistance from the Deadwood Commerclal club was honored in the matter of obtaining the passage of the public bullding and experiment station bill for Deadwood. The next regular meeting and bauquet of the club will be held on the first Tuesday In December, the board of gov- ernors of Ak-Sar-Ben being the guests of the evening. Cure Your Cold While Yuu Can.
