b4 WAYS OF MERCER CAMPAICN Peculiar Diversion from Custom Preves Disappointing and Discouraging, SUNDAY PARTY IN THE SYRIAN COLONY b Come Up to Gur- Aftair Attendunce Fails t ley's Expectati Therefore Closes Early=Mer- cer Prodignl with Beer. A sample of the Mercer campalgn meth- ods came to light yesterday, although care- ful effort was made to keep it under cover It was a Sunday political entertalument pre- pared by Will Gurley, and was designed to get voters In the Syrian colony in line for the non-resident candidate for congress. Al- though the entertainment was given at the home of Elfas Mima, the husband of the woman, Bader Mina, whos was charged with being implicated in the murder of Najeeb Saldy and who was defended in court by Mr. Gurley, the real host was D. H. Mercer Keg beer, Syrian candy, sweet cookies and cigars of the alleged value of 15 cents were tho refreshments. The Syrians had been led to believe that Herman Kountze, who fur- mished Mrs. Mina's bond, was to be present, but in this they were disappointed. Instead A. C. Harte, chairman of the finance com- mittee of the Board of County Commis- sioners, was presented By the same suave argument that induced Elias to give up $1,500 for legal services last winter, Mr. Gurley convinced him a few days ago that to have the heaven-born congress- man cross his threshhold would be to place himself in the favor of the gods for all time and the unlettered Mina proceeded to rus- tle hard for a full atendance of the Syrian voters of the Second and First wards. But the result was dismally and distressingly disappolinting. There were just eight bona fide Syrfans present and only two others of voting age, one of whom was Mina's next door neighbor. 1 Mercer and Gurley left the car at Thir- teenth and Willlam streets, two blocks from | the house, for reasons best known to them- selves, and walked the rest of the way. A crowd of Syrlans stood not far from the bouse and smiled as they recognized the pair, but failed to follow on. Mina was vis- ibly annoyed, for there was only one ex- planation of his countrymen’s conduct, and that reason was one that he couldn’t very well give without hurting the feelings of the non-resident from Washington. Besides, the $3.50 keg of amber brew was hard to keep from souring and the candied elephants and camels were already beginning to melt. It being Sunday, and some of his neighbors being of pious inclination, both the beer and the county commissioner had been smug- gled up the back stairs. Mr. Gurley towed the hesitating Mr. Mercer up to the Mina front door at ex- actly 4:43, which was just forty-eight minutes behind schedule time. The anxious host and hostess, with four babies and a sister-in-law, had been hovering uneasily at the front door of their home, 1462 South Thirteenth street, a few feet from the seene of the murder, for fuily (hirty min utes. Mr. Gurley removed his hat and bowed. Mr. Mercer, feeling called upon to do a little better, bowed also and said: “Allah, whooplalla,” the same being the best he could do in the way of Syrian salutation. Mina looked puzzled and responded in English. Then Mr. Mercer spled the bables and of course the rest was smooth salling. The party was to have continued into the evening, but when the politiclans sized up the little crowd in Mina's apartments and the little crowd sized up the politi- clans the situation became embarrassing and the visitors soon began to leave. By 6 o'clock the function had passed Into his- tory, recorded another of Mr. Gurley's master strokes as a campaigner. “Have some beer on Mercer." That cheerful slogan has been working overtime during the past week, and it will not be permitted to rest until after sun- down next Friday night, when the last of the ballots are in at the primary election. Devold of argument, without the ability to discuss congressional affairs, with the ma- jority of thinking republicans disgusted with his long bunco game, and with the desperation of a drowning man, the non- resident candidate has turned to beer as a campalgn measure. A keg of beer here and a keg of beer thero, in some places where it s called for and other places where it is not, s expected to make the reciplents think that Mercer is “a good fellow” to vote for, and therefore the am- ber fluld Is being sent out freely every day by the managers of the Mercer campalgn. Saturday a keg of beer was sent to the workingmen at the Willow Springs distil- lery “with the compliments of Dave Mer- cer.” Some of the men drank the beer, but none reflected that he tasted anything in it llke a favorable argument for a can- didate for congress. Most any place that David gends a keg of beer will provide the men to drink it, for at every turn of the road there are men who are glad enough to drink up a little corporation money. Al- though the message that accompanies the keg rea With the compliments of Dave Mercer,” it's a dull man who doesn't read Detween the line, “With the compliments of the Unlon Pacific Ratiroad company.'" “I happened fn at a Mercer beer-fest the other evening,” related a Second ward democrat the other day. “Of course, the are illustrated by the fact that the gen- eral manager of the Annheuser-Busch Brew ing company at St. Louis has requested his agent in Omaha to give the nonresident congressman all the support he can and contribute liberally to the sinews of war. interests behind Mercer have suc in pressing several bankers of Omaha into the Mercer service. It Is re- ported that Herman Kountze is to head the Mercer delegation in the First ward and it is settled that M. T. Barlow, presi dent of the United States National bank will be on the Mercer ticket In the Eighth ward, The ceeded Ancher Indication that Mercer realizes the strength of the gpposition is furnished by the fact that he has enlisted the pack- ing house and stock yards managers of South Omaha to come' to his rescue. Frank Lee, assistant superfatendent at Armour's, has been commissionéd chief quartermaster and chief paymaster. for the stock yards district, and the firét move he made was to engage all the horse and horseices ve- hicles in the Magic City for primary day. It has been given out that the employes at the packing houses and stock yards are to be driven to the polls with instructions to vote for Mercer, the design beipg to capture the primaries by main force. A great rumbling of wheels ia- anticipated, but what the men will do when they get to the voting places may not be according to the plans of thelr taskmasters. It is a safe bet that Dave Mercer never worked harder in his lite than he is work- ing just now. His usual “follying” pur- sult, such as shaking hands and kissing babies, is being slighted somewhat becausp he finds it necessary to devote comsidera. ble of his time to his so-called literary bu- reau. Autograph letters are being played for first, second and third places. They are being sent to some of the judges of the primaries—these letters being desperate appeals for help. Then Mercer has writ- ten to a number of other citizens, begging them for support and promising, with a prodigal hand, to give them positions and pensions In the future. Mefcer, as many republicans of this district have long since found out, is & great man to play on the future and always long on promises.

It wai the intention to have held the se during the Ak-Sar-Ben week, but the executive committee camé together to issue the call the members found that sev- eral of the unions would mot meet until the first week in October, and therefore could not elect delegates to the convention, fact that I'm pretty well known among my Belghbors as a democrat didn't lose me any credentfals at that party. It was free ®eer, and everybody was called in to have a drink on Dave Mercer. Among the re- publicans there I noticed quite a number who are even out working against Mercer.

MUSHROOM CITY GROWS IN AN HOUR ty-Five Cars Bring it from York Sunday Morning and Six Hun- dred Men Rear Its Can- vas Wal A mushroom city has sprung up at Twen- tieth and Paul streets and with it have sprung up, away up, the hopes and ex- pectations of several thousand Nebraska children and several thousand other peo- ple who ceased to be children a long time ago. Within the boundaries of this juve nile paradise are elephants, tigers, lions, gilded wagons, a calliope, chimes, clowns— oh, gee! 80 much that no kid could tell of it all. This morning there is to be a parade that won't cost anything and this afternoon there is to be a show that won't cost anything either if grandpa can be found. Tonight there is to be another show and then—only a vacant lot and a head full of glorfous memories, a heart full of bigh aspirations and secret determina- tions. About a Mile of Cars. Sunday was well advanced when the great yellow wagons bearing the magle name, Ringling Brothers, began to roll from the cars at the foot of Davenport street. The last show point was York and the trains had come in slowly over the Burlington. The Ringlings have sixty-five cars for the equipment and an additlonal ten for the 300 performers, and such of the 100 members of the executive staff as are not in the three advertising cars that precede the show. There is also a night lunch car where the men may get a sand- wich and coffee after the loading is done— a provision that was suggested by the management's desire to prevent the men losing out by night trips to the saloons of the citles visited. " Regiment of People. There are 1,000 people with the show, 600 of whom are “‘razorbacks" or other gen- eral utility recruits. Of the 500 horses 216 are draft animals and these trotted briskly to the show grounds with the mammoth wagons yesterday forenoon as fast as the latter could be unloaded from the cars. At the lot “Happy Jack” Snelling, boss canvassman, was ready and the colossal tents went up with a rueh, not so marked as that which is necessary on week days when a performance Is in immediate pros- pect, but fast enough to prove a spell- binder for the hundreds of Omahans who hovered about the grounds to see the work. They're Looking Well, Though the season is far advanced the circus properties are still resplendent and the show seems unusually well equipped this year. The Ringlings are established as a business institution and are at the head of the hippodrome list, but they are not, it appears, relying on reputation for business. The show is un even lurger one than last year's and the parade at 9:30 this morning promises to be more entertaining if possible than its predecessors. No batitute ered. Say what you will about druggists offer- ing something “Just as good” because it pays a better profit, the fact still stands that ninety-nine out of a hundred druggists recommend Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy when the best rem- ady for diarrhoea is asked for, and do eo be- cause they know it 18 the one remedy that can always be depended upon, even in the most severe and dangerous cases.

The two spent the evening together and rounded up somewhere in the nelghbor- hood of Sixteenth and Davemport streets, where Roth went to sleep. When he awoke, instead of finding Ada, he discovered a uote, in which she sald: “Meet me at South Omaha at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon. I will explain why I left you and every- thing." To ascertain the reason why she left him Roth did not have to keep the engage- ment, and by the emptiness of his purse he was certain she misstated facts when she sald “left you and everything was $160 shy.

Mr. Major will be remembered as the | aged janitor at the postofiice, who lost his position through some misunderstanding with the government and went south, im- poverished and dejected, to visit three bachelor brothers in Alabama. While there two years ago the brothers died and left him an ample fortune. He at once wrote | his friend Charles Burmester, employed in the postoffice here, asking that Major Clark- son, who had given him (Major) a position in the postoffice, be requested to come to Omaha from Buffalo. When Major Clarkson arrived Mr. Major, who had returned to| Omaha, gave him $5,000 afid gave a similar amount to Euclid Martin Mr. Major remainsd in Omaha until Au- gust, when he started for his North Caro- lina visit.
