FIRST AND SIXTH WARDS STIRRED UP Republican ¢ Which ¢ Hold Meetings at ndidates, Present and Set Forth A big crowd attended the Sixth Ward Re- publican club’s meeting in Linwood hall last night and heard several speeches of greater pith and point than is the rule at ward convocations. Contrary to the traditional custom, proceedings were begun with a song by the club's own quartet. The bal- lad was altogether a unit for the repub- lican judicial ticket and not at all com- plimentary to centain gentlemen designated “mugwumps,” who permitted the use of their names on the democratic ticket. 8o well were the words and music liked that they caused repeated encores Nelson C. Pratt, who presided, in open- Ing the meeting sald that recent republican victorles in the city and state had been due largely to the young men who had taken prominent parts in the campalgn. As a typleal “republican young man” he Intro duced Charles McDonald, who assured his hearers that he was a speaker who was not a candidate. Year for the Young Men. “The young men of Omaha must bear the brunt of seeing the party reunited here at home,” sald Mr. McDonald. “It is a splen- did opportunity for the young men of the party to push forward and displace the dis- satistaction that now exists. And if good men are nominated you may depend upon it that the young men are golng to work for them «nd vote for them." Robert Sinith, candidate for clerk of the district court, combined thoughts of heavy and light texture. After explaining the good reasons’ why republicans are such, and polnting out the fact that wherever the republicans are in the ascendency better education prevails, he became jocose in his professed failure to see why the other men out for clerk of the district court should 80 aspire when they are much better fitted for other things. He urged republicans to vote for the judicial ticket nominated by the party, saying it should be elected for the good reason that no fault can be found with it and that it is the pecr of any ticket In the fleld. Sam C. Walkup asked the voters to sup- port him in his candidacy for the county clerkshlp nomination. Charles 8. Elgutter, candidate for county judge, followed with the principal speech of the evening. About the County Judgeship. “As you know," he said, “I.am a candi- dats for the important position of county judge. If 1 am nominated and elected to that office there are certain reforms that I can promise you. Certain abuses have grown up in this court in the past and are still there “‘Monies In the hands of the county judge are trust funds as sacred as those in the hands of any trustee. It is against public policy, against law and against business principles that a county judge should spec- ulate with these funds. But, unfortunately, there have been cases in the past where the money of widows and orphans has been used for this purpose. The books of the county judge are generally kept pretty well guarded, but cases such as these have oc- curred unknown to the general publie. “There is no reason why a county judge should deposit trust funds in a bank, permit them to draw interest and put the, interest mioney Into his own pocket. It is a bad precedent aside {rom the moral question in- volved. The interest does not belong to the trustee, but becomes a part of the funds intrusted to the court's care. Such an abuse as this shall not occur if I am elected to the position of county judge. Marriage Certificate Graft, “There is another abuse that has pre- vailed and does prevall in this office. When you wish to marry in Douglas county Yyou must first go to the office of the county judge and procure a marriage license. There his grown up a practice when a young fellow comes up to get his license, of trying to force upon him an illuminated plece of parchment, called a marriage cer- tificate, which may be hung on the wall to ornament his new home. “These certificates cost the groom from $2 to %, according to their degree of beau- ty and coloring and are worth about T5 cents. They are pressed on him as he stands with his blushing bride on his arm and he cannot very well refuse, under the circumstances, to buy such a necessary ar- ticle of household paraphernalla. The money, I am given to understand, is divided between the county judge and the clerk who fssues the license. ““There 18 no more reason why any judge should! traffic in marriage certificates than he should trafic fn wedding rings or wed- ding dresses. There is no reason why he should attempt to collect revenue additional to his salary, If I win this office I shall stop this abuse, “In making these remarks I do not wish it understood that I am reflecting upon any man or upon the present incumbent. 1 have the highest regard for the gentleman now occupying the potition. He s a gentle- man, a good lawyer, and he attends to his business, but there are certain abuses that have grown up in the county court that I belleve are wrong. Joe Marrow finished the evening by say- ing a few words in his own behalf as o candidate for renomination for constable, First Ward Republicans. Honored by the presence of four nom- inees for judicial positions, the First Ward Republican club turned out enmasse last evening and as a result one of the most enthuslastic and profitable ‘“‘experience” meetings since the organization became a tactor in local politics was held. Hon. W. Q. Bears of Tekamah, W. A. Reddick, A. C. Troup and A. L. Button, nominees on the republican judiclary ticket, were there and each spoke briefly relative to the campalgn now on. Mr. Sears reviewed the history of the re- publican party since its organization, sixty- five years ago.. Republicanism was con- temporaneous with the glorious achleve- ments of the country as a whole, and N braska in particular in the last decade. The republican party was like Oliver Wen- del Holmes, who when asked his age said he was 8. On being asked If-he meant 80 years old he réplled, “No, 8 years young." The party has been rejuvenated and is s young today In the vigor, integrity and push of its rank and file as in its infancy Messrs. Reddick, Sutton and Troup dis- cussed the grandeur and dignity of the judiclary and the ethics of which environ the district bench. All the judictal candi- dates were listened to with evident inter- est by the voters present and their dis- cussion of the issues of the campaign at- tentively followed. Candidates for county offices present were very numerous. Among those present who addressed the club were: Theodore Ole- son, W. E. Btockham, who aspire to the clerkship of the county; F. J. Bodwell and J. H. Tullis, candidates for superintendent of public instruction; D, M. Haverly, Rob- ert Smith and Herry Morrill, each one wishing the position of clerk of the dis triet court; Robert Fink, who would ac- cept the momination for county treasurer, and i P, Bioddard, who wants to be county judge; Henry Ostrom, candidate for nty assessor; Fred Hoye, who would leave the council to be sheriff, and the fol lowing candidates for justice of the peace J. W. Kinkead, Willlam Altstadt, C. H Kubat and €. M. Bachmann MILLARD RIFLES AFFAIRS Benefit Promenade Concert to He en After the Fort Riley neuvers.

All he could remember about himself when at the chief's office was that he had been to the state fair at Lincoln. city he was in, but sald he knew it wasn't 8t. Louls, because he saw no large river. The man Is dressed in a dark brown suit of good material and has the appearance of being a well-to-do working manr. He told the chief that he is a man of family, with a wife and elght children to support. His hands are large and calloused in a manner indicative of long years of toll. The chief belleves he is temporarily demented by reason of having indulged too freely. John Doe No. 1 does not know his name— in fact he has not the slightest idea of how he came to Omaba, and beyond saying he was in Lincoln does not know where he has been. As the fellow was very mild- mannered, he was placed in good quarters when taken to the station and recelved the fmmediate attention of Police Surgeon Schleler. SAYS HOUSE WAS ON TENPINS —_— Plaintif in Damage Suit Declares Bullding Was Propped Up When it Fell. Thomas §. Tomb has brought sult against Mary F. Bourke to recover $2,30 damages. When the latter was erecting the brick store bullding at the northeast corner of Thirteenth and Harney streets last fall the one story-brick next door tumbled down early one morning. It was occupled by a powder firm and several reasons were given for its collapse. Later the agent of Mary F. Bourke do- clared it was due to.a ing to the Tomb property, which had been left open. The petition filed Friday al- leges that the Tomb bullding had been propped up with tenpins and other things when work on the corner building was begun and that the falling of the building was due to the workmen of the defendant removing the tenpins and Jackscrews.

A wagonload of policemen were sent to the spot, but after an investigation it was found 'that the vault door had evi- dently been left open by mistake. The door of a small safe Inside the vault was also found open, but this safe 1s evidently not in use. When the night watchman saw the vault dwor open, and then also discovered the door of the smaller safe open, he thought the city’s cash had cer- tainly been taken and called the police.
