ADOPTS SPECIAL RULES BY RESOLUTION Who Have Moved from Ward to Another Mast ake Afidavit Before City Clerk to Vote. In response to the call of Chairman Goss & majority of the members of the execu- tive committee of the county republican central committee assembled in his office yesterday afternoon and adopted resolutions governing the primaries to be held next Friday. Those present were: John F. Behm of the Second ward, Harry B. Zim- man of the Third, C. W. DeLamatre of the Fifth, W. 8. Askwith of the Sixth, John L. Plerce of the Seventh, Clark R. Hutton of the Eighth, Charles A. Goss of the Ninth, John C. Trouton and Joseph Koutsky of South Omaha. It was voted to allow George Cathroe, who was present, to serve as proxy for A. M. Back, the member from the First ward. The resolutions adopted were thes Be it resolved, That where a voter prop- erly registered in one ward has removed (o another ward since his last registration, it 18 necessary for him to swear to an affl- davit before the city clerk to the effect that he was duly registered in the former ward from which he has removed as a repib- lican, and as a republican voter at the iast general registration in said ward, which afMdavit.must also be sworn to by at least twb well known and reputable resident free- holders of the ward in which he desires to yote at the sald republican primaries on Baptember 19, 1%2, and must produce to and file with the judges and clerks of said primary_election Wwhete he desires to vote said affidavit 1t _is hereby resolved, and judges and clerks of the primary eléation to be held in the cities of Omaha and Bouth Omaha on Friday, September 19, 1902, will take notice and govern themselves accordingly, That no transfer or certificate of removal is necessary to entitle a Person to vote at such primary, otherwise entitled to vote thereat, where the remoyal of such person has been merely from. one district of a ward into another distrfet of the same ward, alace the last registration of the voter in the ward.

Clark R. Hutton of the Eighth ward was elected assistant secretary of the conven- tion. The committee adjourned until 10:30 this ‘morning, when it is to meet and complete its ibors. Chaitwan Goes had a mesting of Methodists slated for 4 o'clock in his office and the political conferees were not through when the hour arrived. William A. DeBord amnounced to his friends yesterday that he would not be a candidate for county attorney. He sald: “Yes, I have decided to withdraw. I find that professional business will prevent my EIVIng to the campaign the time required for a vigorous contest. While I shall sup- port and try to help eleet the ticket nomi- nated, my efforts will be first directed to (fi' lay business. My law partoer, Mr. Bal- . has thought it would take too much of my_time from our business to make the canvass, or to attend to the business of the county attorney's office. He has been through both and I defer to his jucgment.” Although the meeting of the First Ward Republican club last evening had been an- nounced as a club business session and none of the candidates was present, the members were entertained with several speeches and showed their appreciation of the sentiments expressed by heartily applauding the speak- ers. The. first speaker called was L. Ernest Phillips, who came as the representative of the Young Men's Republican club and whose subject was “Harmony." ‘There !s prob- ably not a man here this evening,” sald Mr. Phillips, “who does not want that this dis- trict should continue to be represented by a repubiican congressman. It is only natural that each man should have his own ideas a to who that republican should be, but I think we are all agreed that the congress- man from this district should above all things be a republican. To that ena we mus: see to it that we nominaie a man who can be elected; a man upon whom the party can agree and not one who will divide the re- publican vote and give the democrats a chance to elect thelr candidate. Mr. Hitch- cock is In many respects a worthy man and periaps he would r present this district well in congress, but he is not a republican an theretore we republicans do not want him.' Judge Hascall, who was next called out upsa the floor, said be was glad to hear the representative of the young men’s club make 80 good a Cornish speech. “We do need barmony &od I am glad the young man came here this evening to present that idea to us, but T wish also to say that we are go- ing to have harmony. The young man ha spoken of it as something we lacked, but I think he has become unnecessarily alarmed at the activity of the campaign just as some persons hearing two cats fighting in the back yard might believe that all the cats were going to be exterminated on the spot, but the cats keep on increasing and so do the republicans. If Mr. Mercer should ke nominated we would probably get out and support him, but he 1 not going to be nom- inated, for we do not want him. Mercer has been our representative for five terms now and he has never done anything to re- flect credit upon his state or to distingulsh | bimself. Tbat idea of harmony s a good | one and 1 am obliged to my young friend here for having suggested it. Let us have haimcny and mominate Cornish as a man who can be elected and who will be a eredit 10 us and to himself atter he is elected. It Mercer had stayed at home Instead of tak- ing & couple of trips around the world maybe he would be more in harmony with the people of this district, but he seems to ronchitis Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral is the only medicine you need. 'We have been saying this for 60 years. If you want ad- ditional proof, ask your own family physician. We will abide by his decision if you will. That’s fair, isn’t it? “ Ayer's Cherry Pectoral never fails to cure me of 4 cold. I have recom- mended it to many friends suffering from throat and lung troubles, and they deh fm ST a e, b, 3108 — J.CAVER CO.. Lowsll Mass. have lost all interest in us as a people. He serves individuals and not the people, and during this entire campaign thus far he has uot deigned to go to the meetings or to ad- dress the people. He relles upon the fndi- vidual friends he bas served and looks to them for support Mercer is a better lob- yist than Coralsh, I have no doubt, but I am sure that Cornish would not be in con- gress two terms before he had distinguished uimsel? by dolng something that would bring credit to his state. Mercer b served some people too well and the others of us not at all. 8o let us nominate Cornish and have barmony."” Dr. Ford delivered a brief address on be- haif of the young men in politics in which he urged his hearers to vote at the primaries for Mr. Cornish as a young man, & resident of their own ward and one who was pos- sessed of ability to serve the district ably and creditably in congress. J. F. Coy, a resident of the Eighth ward, spoke briefly advocating the candidacy of Mr. Cornish. The meeting of the Sixth lican club last night was sively to speech-making was the principal orator. tle followed Mr. Bartlett, talk. R O. Fink announced his withdrawal from the race for state senator on account of sickness, which makes it impoesible for him to make the campaign. He was fol- lowed by Judge L. D. Holmes, who spoke tor some time paying tribute to the party. N. C. Pratt was the next speaker, calling attentlon to the fact that one week from last night the primarles would be held and requesting all of his friends to get out at these primaries. George McCoy announced his candidacy for assessor of the ward and proposed to the other candidates that all should stand by the resuits of the primaries. P. H. White announced his candidacy for the same office and den'ed that he had been hiring “‘scabs’ for the Union Pacific. B. F. Anderson made announcement of his candidacy for the office and made a plea for reduction of expenses in the office. W. W. Eastman stated that he, aleo, was & candidate for the position of assessor. The meeting adjourned for two weeks. FROST BITES THROUGH KHAKI Colored Soldier: t Fort Probably Chatterin, Rag Time. Ward Repub- devoted exclu- E. M. Bartlett Dr. W. H. Chris- making a short fobrara The glistenirg teeth of about 600 colored soldlers out at Tort Niobrara are chattering in rag time, their epines undulate with chills and their ample heels are threatened with an epidemic of chilblain. For, this week, the mercury has gone 8 degrees be- low the freezing point at Valentine and the tawny soldlers are in the khaki of the Philippines—khaki and underwear so light and thin that & September zephyr goes through it as readily and easily as a tack thrqugh a rubber tire. The soldiers are in seven companies of the Twenty-fitth United States infan- try, which arrived from “the far oast i Augusi. they had been in the fslands, where the mean temperature is above 70 degrees Fah- renheit. They have had since coming to Nebraska neither a change of uniform nor a change of cuticle. The War department plans to change the former when necessary and Providence usually changes the latter in the course of time. In this instance the soldiers have become alarmed lest the wheels of the former turn no faster than the mythical mills of the latter. Thelr officers, when the frost struck them the other night, realized how new were the conditions and negotiated with Washington at length that made the wires hot. It a rellef to have something hot, even it it was nothing but a wire. Orders were sent for coats for the backs, socks for the feet and other garments for all intervening territory. Until the supply is sent, khakt and transparent underwear must remain the garb. There is one warming reassurance, how- ever, In the thought that a strongbox which For monihs an express company carried out of Omaha | yesterday for Valentine is supposed to have contained $42,000 in cold; for the soldiers. Because of the incon- venience of payment in the Philippines and because of the regiment's wandering: some of the men have a full year's back pay to their credit and nearly all had eeveral months on their tab. It is anticipated that it the strongbox arrives safely today the frigidity will be relleved with at least a temporary warm time. RABBI SIMON RESUMES WORK | | z i i ; Cholr Season Opens at Harney Street Temple. Lecture an the The lecture and choir season of the Har- ney Street temple began last night, Rabbl Simon preaching the sermon of welcome and the new quartet cholr furnishing the music. Rabbl Stmon's address was rich in poetic figure. He developed the three themes: That autumn is the home season and that home seems the more dear be- cause of former absence; that the church 1s the true home, the house of God, and the instinctiveness of worship. He sald that man was a creature of instinet, as are the lower ‘animals, and divided instinct into three classes: First, the instinet of hunger, that in the flerce struggle for existence was the idea of self-preservation and brought | about the survival of the fittest; second, the struggle for the preservation of others, | not nutrition, but reproduction; and last the instinet of worship, by which we revere God without know'ng why. These three have made the universe as we know It, according to Rabbi Simon, and he promised that his tuture addresses would be for and for Judaism. He asked that those who beld the higher idea of home to come weekly to the church home. Notice.

PICKET LINE MAY BE SHORTENED batantial Ald fs Received, Larger and Permanent Will Be Sollcited to I System in Fight. but Funds re Leaders of the Union Pacific strike have reached the conclusion that they have an all-winter's fight on their hands and with thie thought in mind they are deliberating on methods of conducting the strike cal- culated to meet the exigencies of the cold weather and best subserve the interests of the men involved in the struggle. As was stated in The Bee yesterday it has been proposed to reduce the picket line and allow those strikers who feel the neces- sity to leave the city and work elsewhere until the etrike here is over. This, it is claimed, will reduce the idle force, increase the number of paylng members and conse- quently remove a financial burden from the shoulders of the various lodges A meeting of the men who are conduet- Ing the strike was held at the Midland hotel yesterday, at which matters of vital Interest were taken up. No definite re- sults were reached and the meeting was continued untfl today. Thos in attendance were President John MeNeil, national leader of the boller makers; President EA Kennedy of the local and district lodges of boiler makers; J. W. Kline, executive com- mitteeman for the boiler makers; First Vice President P. J. Conlon and Third Vice President George Mulberry of the ma- chinists' national organization; Samuel Grace, secretary, and other members of the machinists’ executive committee. Incl dentally it was suggested that an attorney be employed to direct the strikers from now on in a legal manner. Some Opposition to Plan. There is some opposition to the proposi- tion of reducing the picket force. It Is a question whether this proposition can be carried. Willlam Richilieu, who has been one of the most active picket officers and workers and who today assumes charge of the entire force, belleves it will be a mis- | take to lessen the number of these men. | He has just returned from a trip through lowa and northern Illinols towns collecting { funds for the strike treasury and is con- vinced that there is ample support for all | the strikers without reducing the picket | force in order that some may go out of the | ity to work and thus reduce the bene- ficlary fund. However, this question will | be settled today, no doubt. | It was propesed at yesterday's meeting that a joint appeal be made by the allied | unions engaged In the strike to aseoclate [ lodses over the country, but this pian fs held in abeyance, pending a decision as ‘o the amount of funds necessary and the factlities already at hand for raising them. The blacksmiths and boiler makers throughout the country have levied an as- sessment of §1 per member to be diverted to the etrike fund and the machinists, hav- ing other resources at their disposal, have not felt the necessity of calling for such an assessment from their members. Warned Against Violence. At the morning meetings of the boiler ‘makers, machinists and blacksmiths mem- bers were warned again to abstaln from violent demonstrations, such as oceurred at the yards a day or two ago. Each unlon imposes fines upon any of its members gullty of unwarranted assaults upon any em- ploye of the Unfon Pacific and, in some instances, these fnes have been increased as a further admonition to,the members who are doing picket duty. The blacksmiths have raised their penalty from $1 to $5, the full amount of & weekly benefit Said a leading member of the blacksmiths yesterday: “The better element of strik- ers are, as Chief Donahue puts it, not in favor of fighting or violence in any form, and we propose to suppress such demon- strations In those who are not easily re- strained. For the length of time this strike has been in progress there has been very little violence, that we fully realize, but what we want to do s to prevent any vio- lence whatever." | President Kennedy of the boller makers has been informed that a number of non- union men were employed in Buffalo, N. Y., and sent to the Union Pacific shops in Omaha Thursday over the Wabash, Baldwin Makes Declaration. “The Union Pacific company fs.entitled to full protection of its property, and to the security of its employes from insults and assaults, and to secure such protection it will call upon the city, state or federal authorities, if necessary. The frequent acts of violence must stop, or decisive ac- tion will be taken.” This is the statement made by General Attorney John N. Baldwin yesterday: “If the public knew the full details of the many lawless and brutal acts recently | committed by the strikers there would be less sympathy expressed for them and less encouragement held out to them to con- tinue the strike. Looking over the list of assaults during the last week, it s re- markable that such a state of affalrs should be tolerated in this city, and much more remarkable that it should be encouraged by apparently well-meaning citizens. “Crowds of strikers and thelr sympathiz- ers frequent the gates of the company's yards, doing what they call ‘picket duty.' Their real duty seems to be to assault or abuse and intimidate every workman who goes through the gates. It is their purpose, s openly expressed, to create such a reign of terror that no man will dare work for the company. No person pretends that these pickets are acting on their individual responsibility. It is well known that they are placed there by their head officers or walking delegates, and that thelr every act | ot lawlessness is heartily approved by the strike officlals, who place them:on ‘duty’ around the premises of the company. ‘One of the cases is that of Michael Cronin. He has lived in Omaha for twenty years, and has worked for the Union Pacific since 1884. From his wages he has been able to support his family, and has saved up fully $5,000, which he has invested in Omaha property. He declined to quit when the other men struck, and they seized every opportunity to abuse and intimidate him. One morning & well known striker id to him, ‘If you keep up this work, you will be killed, and if nobody else will do it, I will kill you myself.' Al d te Go Home. “He was afraid to go home that day and remained in the shops all might. In the meantime his wife was notified that he would be killed. She was terribly fright- ened, and induced him to quit work. He remained st home then for several weeks, but finally tried to get back to work. At the Cass street gate Strikers Millett, 0'Don- nell, Boles and several others stopped him and told him If he went in he ‘would be sorry for it' When he went back to town & man with a revolver in his hand followed Bim two blocks. Last Monday he went back to work and on Tuesday evening, while leaving the yards for home, in company with George Roach, another workman, they were assaulted within 150 feet of the gate Mr. Cronin was knocked down twice and was badly bruised. The policemen sl tioned near got uround too late to see who committed the assault. “hast Mouday night Heary Guinotte, one of the workmen, was assaulted by strikers up near Jefferson square. One ran up to him and asked him if he was working in the ahops. He replied that he was and the man knocked bim down without an- other word. Another striker kicked him in the back. He was almost senseless for a while, and when he tried to get up they came back and knocked him down again. “Several days before this attack Mr Guinotte's wife went down to the yards to see him. She was stopped at the gate and the pickets swore at her and frightened her o that she was afraid to go in. Other women who have tried to see their hus- bands or tried to send word to and from the gates bave been treated in the same man- ner. They tell pitiful storles of the brutal oaths and threats dealt out to them by the pickets. “Last Friday E. H. Reld, one of the work- men, was stopped and assaulted by striker Lee Harrier (or Haraway) and was threatened by others. On Sunday E. J. Win- ters, ome of the shop guards, was caught outside the yards and was badly beaten. There are several other cases of minor assaults and the threats recently made not only promise bodily harm to Foreman Tur- tle and others, but they say the new smoke- stack is to be blown up with dvnamite. Fauver-lsh Incident. “The most recent case Is that which oc- curred Wednesday night. Two of the guards | named Fauver and Ish stopped work at § o'clock and left the yards to go to their homes. They were followed by a gang of ten or fifteen strikers and were attacked. Ish was badly beaten and was seriously in- jured by having one of his eyeglasses broken and the pleces driven into his eye. Fauver escaped serfous injury by making an active fight, proving too shifty for his cowardly assailants. This affray occurred in open daylight, and the crowd of strik- ers hung after Fauver, throwing missiles and using foul epithets until the police finally appeared. As s frequently the caso the police urrested the first man they came to. This was Fauver, and most of the as- sallants hurried away to stir up more trouble or ‘bend their energles' elsewhere. “It is & curfous condition of affairs when any association of individuals can ‘officlally’ blacklist a business house or factory in this city and station men before the en- trances to warn people not to go in or to insult and assault those who disregard | thelr warning. In such cases it is difficult to discriminate between the terms ‘black- 1st’ and ‘blackmail.” “While the insults, threats and acts of intimidation on the part of the lawless | element have been of daily and almost hourly occurrence since the beginning of | the strike, the cases of actual violence are | on the Increase during the past week, in- | dicating that the recent declaration of the | head officers of the union that ‘every energy | would now be directed to the Unfon Pacific strike’ was no idle threat. The newe that | several of the most lawless men from Rawlins and Cheyeone have been tran ferred here to do picket duty for the strik- | ers is followed immediately by a number of brutal acts on the streets and in open | daylight. The police force of the city has been too scattered to prevent these acts, the e and sssault men wi offense s that they desire to work for a 1iving and spend their wages In the city for the benefit of their families,” Samuel Higgins, who was superintendent of motive power for the Union Pacific for about a year and just left the office for a | position with the Southern raflway at Washington at the inception of this strike, is in the city conferring with Union Pacific officlals. FLKS’ NIGHT AT THE CONCERT lendld Crowd Filla the F Oceaston of the The concert of last night was especially for the Elks. The Gardners also attended, and the members of the two fraternities, with their ladies, numbered about 500. Of the 3,000 reats under the concert tent only a very few were unoccupled. The evening began with a well applauded address by Grand Exalted Ruler George P. Cronk of the Elks, followed later in tho evening by Joseph E. Barton, who sang, by request, and the Elks' quartet. Miss Crawford made her last appearance and her rich voice and charming stage presence won her prolonged applause. The program was ended by the band with “Reminiscences of Scotland,” which were neither very reminiscent nor | very Scotch, but pleasing neverthless. ’rnei cold wave has led the young women of the booths to discard thelr airy Japanese cos- tumes and Conductor Rivela has had to give up his white flannels. This forenoon at 10:30 o'clock Huster's band will give a ragtime concert for the children, and in the evening the Masonic quartet of Minneapolis will make its first appearance. The Sunday concerts will be McKinley memorials, “‘Lead, Kindly Light" and “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” being sung. Tuesday will be “German night,” and the program will be largely Wagnerian, Wednes- day night is to be “Auditorium night." Pro- pram: FORENOON—HUSTER'S BAND.
