WEBSTER ON RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE Members of the Delegation Have Already Agreed on the Various Matters of Its Own Or- sanization, The Douglas county delegation to the republican state convention at Lincoln next Tuesday will present the name of Hon. Willlam G. Whitmore of Valley for the nomination for regent of the state ual- versity. Mr. Whitmore has been consid- ering the question of his candidacy for s>me time at the solicitation of friends and has finally concluded to accept the position if it is tendered to him, ~Mr. Whitmore is well known as a successful farmer and stock raiser and has been in public life as & member of the state leglsliture. He also stood for the position of uaiversity regent as the nominee of the reputlicans in 1896, although on that occasion none of the candidates on the ticket were suc:es: ful. A large majority of the delegat elect to the coming state convention hive indicated their desire to support Mr. Whit- more for this place and he has also bee assured of support from other counties. The delegates have practically agreed, in addition, to an organization of the delega- tion with W. W. Bingham as chalrman and Hon. John L. Webster as member of the resolutions committee for this d:str.ct. The members of the state committee whose terms expire are: Vietor Roscwater, Charles E. Morgan and B. E. Wilcox. T. last two are not asking to be re-elected, so the cholce has been expressed for com- mitteemen for Douglas county Viotor Rose- water, Charles W. Fear and Joseoh Koutsky. Chajrman Goss of the republican county committee has had a tabulation made of the delegate apportionment for the next county convention under the new rules adopted by the committee at the last meeting. This tabulation gives a total membership In the convention of 431 dele- gates. For South Omaha the representa- ‘ward and precinct lines there have been changed since the 1900 “election, the appor- tionment ‘being based on the vote for pre: dent in that year. “Why, no, T had never thought of it and would not have it if tendered me," sald General Charles F. Manderson when asked it he would become o candidate for vice president of the United States, for which the Sixth Ward Republican club has en dorsed him. “I had not known of the oudorsement of the Sixth Ward Republican club at its re- cent meeting, «s I have been out of thg ity and only returned last evening," e continued. “I appreclate the kindness of the Sixth Ward club, as that is my old ward. But I am not a candidate, nor would I accept the nomination. I am out of poli- tics. I had twelve years of it at Washing- ton and have no further aspirations for political life. There is too little domesticity | to be enjoyed there, and I am a home man. 1 really had not glven the matter much thought, being occupled with other busi- ness, but I am free to say very emphat- fcally that the vice presidency should come to the west by all means. “You may certainly say for me that even were the matter of my being a vice presi- dential possibility taken serlously, that I would not consider it for a moment. There 1s plenty of good materfal in the west, and the greatest kindness miy friends can do me Is to let me live in politica! obscurity. They have honored me sufficlently, and I am sincerely grateful to them, and my gratitude will be Increased by their per- mitting me to continue with them as a private citigen."” John N.

DOES NOT- NAME ANY DEFINITE SUM Last Line to Enter Omaha Taking Lead in Hope Enterprise—Directors Othier Rallroads Will Follow, The Chicago Great Western rallway will help Omaha bufld the Auditorium. Presi- dent A. B. Stickney so told a committes of business men who waited on him at the | Millard hotel Thursday afternoon. No definite sum was mentioned, but it is be- lMeved the road will purchase $,000 or $5,000 | worth of stock, the president saying that he would name the amount later. This will be the first subseription toward the Auditorium made by a raflroad. It is| pledged by the chief officer of a line that has not yet established a terminus in the city and which has'had a stiff legal battle to be assured of entrance over the Union Pacific bridge. Now that the last transportation line to reach Omaha has been first with an Audi- torium subscription, it is confidently ex- pected fhat the other lines will respond with equal or exceeding generosity. Such is the hope held by the members of the executlve committee of the Auditorlum company. The committee that oalled upon Pres dent Btickney by appointment included the | executive committee, and was composed of | these torium company. well known business men. J. E. Baum, Charles H. Pickens, Frank J. Car- penter, E. Sanborn, Arthur Smith, F. | P. Kirkendall, F.-A. Nash, W. M. Glass, E. P. Peck, W. 8. Wright, Frank B.| Hochstetler, W. J. C. Kenyon and J. M. | Gillan, assistant secretary of the Audl-‘ | Introduced by Kellogg. Frank B. Kellogg, general counsel for the | | Great Western, introduced those who had not previously met President Stickney, J E, Baum then addressed the railroad mag nate on bebalf of the commijtee and the| citizens of Omaha. Mr. Baum congratu-| ldted President Stickney on his recent vic- | tory in the United States court by which | his road is enabled to enter Omaha and Bouth Omaha and compete for a share of the business of the cities and tributary country. He then presented in a clear way the Auditorium enterprise and asked Pres- ident Stickney to make a subscription for auditorium stock for the corporation that he head: In replying the president sald he was| willing not only to make a definite pledge | of support for the Auditorium, but was | pleased to have the opportunity to show his good will toward Omabans. He had tully decided, he announced, to help the| people of Omaha bulld what he charac ized as a splendid public building. “I want it distinctly understood,” sald President Stickney, “‘that the Great West- ern is entering Omaha with the most | friendly feeling. I have taken up the in- terests of Omaha In conference with the officers of the company, and they were all desirious of showing the people of this city that the Great Western proposes to take a lively Interest in the welfare and pros- perity of Omaha and the surrounding coun- try. We want to do all that is fair and reasonable to promote good feeling and prosperity in this part of the country. Does Not Name Amo t. “I am not prepared at this time to say what the exact amount of stock that we 11 take will be, but there is no question | whatever about the subscription being forthcoming in the near future.' l President Stickney was shown & large | pteture of the Auditortum as 1t wiit appear | when completéd and was much pleased with it. He remarked, laconically, that it would make a pretty fine station building it properly located. The committee thanked the president for his generous treatment of the proposition and departed much pleased with. the inter- view. The fact that the Great Western contributed a handsome amount to the Kansas City Auditorium leads to the bellef that Omaha will be as liberally treated.
