Turns Down Keller. : The fact that Postmaster General Payne recently notified the members of tHe ex- ecutive committee of the National Letter Carriers' ussoclation, who presented to him a memotial setting forth the claims of the carrlers to an increased compensa- tion, that the Postoffice department could Dot recognize or treat with James C. Keller of Cleveland, O, as president of the assoclation, s expected to put an end to Mr. Keller's campalgn for re-election, The postmaster general is reported to have sald that beeause of Mr. Keller's un- rellability the department wa® compelled to direct him to return to his dutles as Jetter carrier in the Cleveland office about eight months ago, since which time he has had no standing before the postoffice department. It will be remembered that because of the part which My. Keller is supposed to have played In defeating for re-election Representative Loud, who as chajrman of the house committee on post- offices had opposed the bill to increase the salaries of the letter carriers, Keller lost all standing before the committee and conseguently made no effort at the . last sossion to procure the passage of the bill. Now that Postmaster General Payne has frankly stated the attitude of the Post- office. departmént toward Mr. Keller the fact ‘that he would have no . standing elther at the Postoffice departmfent or be- fore congress Is taken as making his re- eloction oyt of the question, for there would be no fleld in which he could oper- ate ad president of the organization. /While the letter carriers may personally approve of his course In opposing the re- election of Representative Loud it is not thought likely they will elect to the high- est office of the organimation for a term of two years a man who could appear _ meither before congress nor the *depart- ment and who would therefore be merely & useleas appendage.

DEMOCRACY HAS NO CLAIM ON THE PARTY s that in Event of Reorgan- Gaining Control of Demoe- racy Bryan's Followers Might Want a Political Home, (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. 2, —(Special) — Tor- mer, Senator Allen, in the current issue of the Independent, makes the following re- ply to the recent editorfal by W. J. Bryan in his paper, the Commoner: Bdltor Independent: In the Commoner of the Tth inst. a rather caustic comment Is made on the Denver conference address and on the determination of the populists to put a presidential ticket in the field in 1904, and for declaring itself “unqualifiedly in favor of national political action.” It is assumed that the conference did not have authority to speak for the party. But whether that s true or not, it 1s question- able (because the Commoner s not a popu- Mst journgl) whether it is in a situation to ralsé the point of regularity of the con- ference's work. omplaint is made that fusion populists have surrendered to the middle-of-the-road popullsts and it is stated that the latter supported the republican ticket in 190, general onslaught is made on the mid- die-of-the-roaders, they sre characterized as unreasonable, and it is said they gave aid and comfort to the republican party; and other charges are made against them. It is finally urged that an appeal be made from the regular populist organization “to the members of the populist party,” to undo the work of the Denver conference. It is to be regretted that the Commoner, as well as some other democratic papers, takes the view It does of the situation. The tenor of the article is that the popu- list party must be disciplined for not sub- grdinating its will to the wishes of the democratic party. In other words, that the popullst party must be destroyed unless it agrees to subordinate its wishes and plat- forms to the democratic party's wishes and platforms. Complaint fs made that the action of the Denver conference will have a tendency to weaken respect for the Chicago and Kan- sas City demoeratic platforms. ‘What is Populist Duty? Let us examine the situation and what the duty of the populists is. The party was organized In 1 rotest ainst both the republican and democratic rtles and to accomplish reforms that nejther of them had the disposition or 'power to accomplish, The party has held ihree national conventions and promul- ted «tbree national platforms.

But Mr. Bryan, to the regret of the reformers everywhere, fatled of an election. Populists did not fuse with the democrats in supporting Mr. Bryan, but made an in- dependent nomination. 'At no time had they any Intentions to abandon their party of to become democrats, but simply co- opérated with the liberal Wing of the dem- geratic’ party to secure Mr. Bryan's elec- on. In the meantime it is doubtful if the re- publican party did more to 50 the 5"!’“"" party and to' absorb its member- rty supported Mr. [p than the democratic party did.

It wi istinctly understood that we had no au- thority to promulgate a platform and that the vital Issues are ‘continued In the Omaha platform of July 4,.1§92.

At the populist convention a committee of conference was appointed to ascertain the wishes of the democrats at the coming county conventions for the purpose of nom- inating candidates for county offices.

LINCOLN, Aug. 2.—(Spectal)—The work of the college settiement will be resumed in the early fall. The new bullding which the settlement residents moved into at Twentleth and N streets a year ago has been greatly improved by the addition ot a furnace, hoW and cold shower bath, plumbing, a cement floor in the basement, and a new porch over the main entrance. The yard has been graded and fruit trees have been planted and seeds have been sown. The settlement is now practlcaily out of debt, all bills having been pald by voluntary subscriptions by the people of Lincoln and of the university. People not directly interested have a vague Idea of the work belng done by the settlement. It 1s not as is most generally understeod a school or church of charity for the benefit of only the very poor classes who are unable to attend schools, and this very Idea has kept many people away from it. The management does not consider the work any more & charity than a church and they argue that‘when a man attends a church, though he gives nothing for its maintainance, he does not become an object of charity. Those who gave the money for the building of the settle- ment gave it not as an ordinary charity, but to bulld a place where rich and poor alike could meet for social intercourse and for the broadening and uplifting of each other. Its lectfire room is a place where all discuss questions that oconcern them and discuss freely current fssues, city im- provement or anything else. The house is always open for meetings that Interest the neighborhood in which it is located and peopls are Invited to take advantage of it. The work was first started in Lincoln about ten years ago by a number of uni- versity professors, who conducted it in a bullding in the northwestern part of the city. About three years ago the work died down considerably, to be resurrected, and a new bullding was the result. When the work began to broaden, the board of di- rectors was enlarged to include a number of the citizens of the town. The board Is now composed of ' W. G. L. Taylor, presi- dent; A. Ross Hill, Paul Grumman, uni- versity professors, and J. E. Miller, God- trey W. Rhodes and Mrs. G. M. Lambert- &on of Lincoln. Four student members are to be elected In October. The residents who have the work in charge are C. E. Prevey, Mrs. Alice W. Prevey and Harry N. Pos- ton, a student helper. The main object of the settlement Is to promote good fellowship and social inter- course. It does this by the organization of clubs of persons of all ages, each of which has its regular meeting night. Dur- ing the winter the settlement conducted a night school for the benefit of those whose work did not permit of them attending school. The attendance, however, was not terday with twenty-three out of ninety-six delegates. 2 T organized by electing 8. H. Thatch of Hattle Creek chalrman and J. H. Mackay of Norfolk secretary. Th se- lected delegates to the state convention and to the Ninth judicial convention, and adjourned, subject to call of the chalrman of the county central committee. The populist convention met at the same time In the Valley bank hall. They or- ganised, with eleven delegates present, by electing H. F. Barney of Warnerville chalrman and G. 8. Evans of Norfolk sec- retary. They also selected delegates to the state and judioclal conventions, and ad- journed subject to call of the chairman. There was no fusion. CENTRAL CITY, Neb., Aug. 2.—(Spe- elal.)—~The democratic and populist conven- tions met here yesterday and nominated the following ticket: G. C. Agnew, tre: urer; M. H.

During the summer only the boys' clubs have been kept moving: The Antelope Valley boys' club, orgiuised last Novem- ber, has had a meeting every Friday night, with an attendance -of fifteen. The boys are from 7 to 16 years old. They have given two entertainments, the proceeds from which wént to buy a punching bag and other apparatus for a gymnasium. The Ruby Seal club, for girls ffom 7 to 14 years old, has had an averago attend- ance from the tlme It was organized last November until April, of nineteen. The literary and social club for persons over 16 years old, organized in January, has had an average attendance of forty. This club was organized for the discussion of social problems and its members indulge in de- bate and have had several lectures. W. J. Bryan was the speaker upon the night of the organization, and since then Gov- ernor Mickey, ex-Governor Poynter and several of the university professors have lectured to its member® The sewing school for girls attracted the largest number. To April 11, when its meetings were discontinued for the sum- mer the average attendance was fifty-one. The girls were provided with eight teach- ers. Other classes were opened during the winter in arithmetic, language, vocal music, history, elocution and drawing, but were discontinued because of a lack of attendance. This winter it is planned to open a cooking school and a carpenter class. The tools and benches for the lat- ter have all been provided, but assistance is needed to fit up the kitchen. The young people organise their own clubs, elect their officers and conduct all thelr aftairs themselves, under the direction of the residents. The work is in charge of Mr. Prevey and he Is assisted by Mr Prevey and students of the university. These reside at the ssttlement and there is room there for two or three student helpers. The only student who has assisted straight through the school year was Mr. Poston and his work is highly spoken of by Mr, Prevey. For their assistance the students are given room rent free of charge. The settlement néeds finances to fit up one more room for a helper and to fit up the basement for & boys' clyb room. One large room downstatrs is used for a game room and another for a library and reading room. Many excellent books have been secured and the young people of the city are encouraged to read. The work will be resumed October 1. stmpkins Gives Advice, “And I say unto you, build not upon the sand, and neither let your weatherboard- ing be of planks placed far apart. Make your houses that they may be permanent fixtures and that they may also be pleas- ing to the eye. Al these things I say unto you in the name of the board of man- agers of the state fair, 'and to save time you had better yank that thing down as soon as possible.” - Thus spake George Simpkins, general manager of the rules and regulations of the state fair board, to a crowd of women and men, members of the church of the disciples of Christ, who had gathered from Yar and near to view thelr work done in the early hours of the -day. And stralghtway with heavy hearts and hands and tired bodies and hammers and hatchets and hat pins the gallant little band of one lone heavily laden preacher and a score of sisters again set to work to undo what had been done. All after- noon they himmered and knocked, and it Is sald they kept their tempers, though perspiration washed irrigation canals down sunburned, dusty faces, and the day wore on, and the mext day was the Sunday And when night came the bullding was all down and the dey's work counted for naught on this mundane sphere. But to- morrow will that little band, enforced with some better titmber, go forth and start again the bullding of.the house. This will be done because the members of the church have rented the ground at the state falr site upon which (0 conduct an eating emporium. They made putting up an insecure bulldipg, which is against the order of the board of mane agers ' But the members of the church expect to reap thelr harvest during the falr.

FOUNDERS IN OHIO RIVER Excursion Steamer Goes Down in Six Feet of Water, but No Lives Are Lost. M'KEESPORT, Pa., Aug. 2.—Annle Roberts, an excursion boat carrying 1,00 passengers, sank tonight, but no person was drowned. The boat had been up the river with the Ancient Order of Hibernians, No. 7, and their guests from Pittsburg, on thelr annual outing. On the return trip, when approaching this place it was dls- covered that the vessel was rapidly filling with water, and Captain Klein, without letting his passengers know of the con- dition, ordered the pilot to head for the whart. This was quickly done’and when the boat was within twenty-five of shore it sank in about six feet of water. The excursionists were all taken off with- out fatalities by means of skiffs and barges. ‘When the boat sank the lower deck was covered with water to a depth of about six inches. Women and children became panie- stricken and there were many NAITOW es- capes from drowning during the transfer from the boat to shore. e ——————————————————————————————————————————— ot | ——— CITY SUPPLANTS COMPAMIES \ | | Muniotpal Ownership Idea Growing Rap- | idly in German Munioipalities. L RIVALRY TO SEE WHICH SHALL HAVE BEST Pablic Works Generally Inangurated by Private Enterprise or Cor- porations and Then Pure chased by Publie, (From a Staff Correspondent.) | WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—(Special )—Br- nest L. Harris, United States commercial agent at Eibenstock, in a recent report to the Department of Commerce and Labor, writes that the idea of municipal control of public works has secured a strong foot- hold in Germany. “In Germany,” Mr. Harris writes, “there 18 a very strong tendency on the part of the state or municipal authorities, as the ocase may be, to secure control of all the works which contribute in any way toward the public wplfare. It is usually the cus- tom on the part of local authorities to grant a concession for a certain number of years, providing that when the time expires the city shall assume control of the Nllo‘prlsv‘. In the majority of cases it has either been private enterprise or a stock company which has taken the initia- tive In German cities in introducing the most advanced technical and scientific im- provements. This has been the case in | small towns as well as in large cities. The water and gas works of Eibenstock, for example, were bullt a few years ago by a stock company organized by the citizens of the town. The ownership of both; how- ever, was recently acquired by the mu- nicipal government and the company liquidated. Government congrol of all such enterprises has led to & great rivalry among the large citles of the empire in striv- ing to be first in the application of the newest methods and latest inventions known to sclence. The exhibits of the dif- ferent cities of the empire at Dresden af tord a striking opportunity to study the progress made in industrial sclence and its application In Germany today. “Tha exhibition is divided into two parts. In the first section are the exhibits of the large German cities with regard to the progress made in recent years relating to municipal management of water works, sewerage canals, underground wires, tele- phones, electric rallways, gas and electric light works, etd. “One of the most interesting features of the exhibition s the crogs-section street of the city of Dresden. “In the second section of the exhibition many of the large industrial concerns of the empire are represente Begins at Bed Rock.

OIL IN BONANZA FIELDS Recent Wyoming Discoveries Show Large Lake of Petroleum Near Basin City. i BASIN CITY, Wyo., Aug. 23.—(Speclal.)— The strike of ofl by the Hoosler people in the Bonanza fields south of here was more important than at first supposed, but the company desired to keep the matter qulet to prevent prices of land going up. A heavy flow of ofl was struck at a depth of 1,124 feet. Before further progress could be made & caveln occurred and nothing can be done In the well until new casing arrives. The. manufacturers are ninety days behind in their orders and work will probably not be resumed in the well before November 20. The Hoosler company will put down other wells on their property in order to satisfy themselves as to the quan- tity of the ol in the Bonanza fields. The Hdozler discoveries, following those of the Kearns company a year ago, prove con- clusively that a largg lake of high grade petroleum exists undér the Benton shale at a depth of from 1,000 to 1,800 feet, and that the Bonanza flelds with development, will s00n become one of the leading producers of high grade flluminating ofls in this country.
