MISS GIBSON LOST AND FOUND Night of Elks' Progeam at Successfully Enliv- ing Feature, Grave fears that the Fiks' fair had been the sceno of a kidnaping aroused police, detective and private circles at the Audi- torlum Thursday morning. While Mrs. J C. Huteson, matron in charge of the the- atrical troupe of the fair, wore out several palr of spectacle lenses in a vain search for the missing young lady, whose stage name is the Gibson Girl, Police Captain Mostyn, private detectives, sturdy blue- coats to the number of half a dozen and a seore or more of sympathetic patrons of the Elks' carnival organized a systematic search for the lost girl. It was discovered that the last seen of her was by Miss May Weaver Wednesday night, when Miss Gib- son had been shown the downy boudofr provided for the troupe, and had sought the slumber due the tired f:ir worker. A squad of reserves was about to be sum- moned from police headquarters when one of the efficlent police officers on duty at the fair solved the problem of the dis- appearance by forcing the Gibson Girl re- luctantly to come forth from a corner of & covered shelf counter, where the neatly dressed doll had lai over night Much to the rellef of Officers Cooper, Corneau, Lickert, Cunningham, Carney, Thresher and J. B. Wilson, whose brows had worked overtime In producing adequate perspira- tlon to sult the occasion, Miss Gibson now holds her accustomed place on the minia- ture stage at the fair and 1s waiting to be bought by some admirer of the combined | art of Charles Dana and a skillful doll| dressmaker. The second night of the Elks' fair vied with the first in the number who attended and in the brilliance of the event, for in spite of the rain and the chill air the crowd was almost as large as that of the night before. Early in the e ing the vaudeville wi the feature which caught the crowd and after that was over all the booths were visited in turn and many stayed until a late hour listening to the music and maet- Ing friends. To meet everyone that ‘mci knows in Omaha it is only necessary (o take a place near the entrance and sooner or later all will come through the door. ‘This social feature of the fair is one which i» doing much to make it popular.

ENOUGH OF DEMOCRATS ALREADY Vietor Rosewater Calls Attention to This Generally Expressed Sen: ment of Thelr Own Purty Organs. Harmony and confidesce were the watch- words of the Central Republican club at A rousing meeting held at the club rooms Thursday night, when George D. Melkie- john, former assistant secretary of war, and Victor Rosewater were the principal speakers. James Walsh, president of the club, was in the chalr and most of the candidates on the republican ticket also spoke. “Men is what all the larger cities are now looking for in the administration of thelr public affairs” said George D. Mol- Klejohn. “City wfter city has been rent wide open by exposures of graft because the right men have not been placed in office. Did you ever notice that the man who complains the loudest against his taxes or because some man Is nominated to an office is the man who stays away from the polls on the day cf the primaries and allows some one else to make his cholce for him? It is given to every Ameri- can citisen to protect his own intorests and the interests of his neighbors, and if he does not do ft it Is his own fault. 1t the affairs of Omaha are not administered for the benefit of the people it is because the people do not go to the polls to do thelr duty. If you want the affairs of this city to be in control of the republican party g0 to the polls and vote he straight republican ticket. If you fall to vote straight the first thing you know a precinot has slipped away from you, then a county and soon the state. The lower house of congress will soon go and the party will %0on lose {he administration of national atfairs. Conditfon of Perfect Marmony. “Tonight we find a condition where all contention has been biotted out from the republican ranks, a condition of perfect harmony and the party united. I predict 19 suit. tive. & larger vote for the republican party in May than was ever cast in Omaha before. “I huve known John P. Breen, the head of your ticket, for the last twenty-five years, and the republican party has named a standard-bearer who is a man of the greatest probity and who will be a credit to the city of Omaha in any position in which he {s placed. He will make ho dls- tinotion between the man of wealth and the man who tolls, “You have nominated a man for city at- torney whom I have known since the early ‘808, and I want to say that Nelson Pratt I8 & man whose honor and integrity will be the same in public office as it has been in handling the affairs of his olients. “Go to the polls and vote for the men named by the votes of a majority of your party and you will have done your duty to your party. There is no reason why every republican should not love the prin. ciples of his party and stand with gt May 4" Republicans’ Turn to Win “It Is our turn to win this spring 1d Victor Rosewater, editor of The Bee. “The people of Omaha seem to need an object lesson every once in a while, and once in about every fourteen years they elect a democratic administration, and the people of the state do the same thing about once every ten years, “Although ‘the governor has been in of- fice and the democratic legislature in ses- slon about three months, from what thelr own democratic papers are saying 1 think the people of the state have had emough of them already. “Every man on the republican ticket is head and shoulders above his adversary on the democratio ticket, and that is putting the comparison mildly. “The democrats are going to conduot this campalgn along the same lines as before. Tomorrow night they will go through the form of making a platform as long as from here to Councll Bluffs, and there wiil be as many planks in the platform as thers are ties on the rallroad between here and Councll Bluffs, and each plank will prom- ise something Intended to gull a few voters. “The thing for the republicans to do Is simply to point to the two object lessons of democratic administration, eity and state. They promiped as much as they could and dellvered as little as posstble. Thelr own newspapers denounce' their broken pledges, and If they went Into of. fice under false pretenses the people ought to be reminded not to be fooled again by the same fellowh. ““The real question s to give the city a government by men competent to perform the work and who will not promise to do things they know they cannot do and who/ will uphold the reputation of the city so that when Omaha people travel away from home they wont have the dlscreditable per- formances of thelr offictal representatives thrown up to them.” Eleventh Ward Or sation. | An organization among the republicans of the Eleventh ward, caleulated to roll up & snug republican majority in that werd at the coming municipal election, was ef- rected Thursday evening at the Fontanelle club rooms, - 168 Howard . street. Howard H. Baldrige was unanimously ehosen presi- | dent, F. C. Rogers was elected secretary and August H. Schroeder treasurer. The appointment of an active and ener- getic exeoutive committee to act in con- junction with the ward members of the cen- tral committee, was also provided for, and the rest of the meeting was given over to atdresses by the voters present. Partisanship has been placed above pub- lic policy by the present democratic admin- istration,” declared President Baldrige of the club. ““The democrats in power have used (heir position to strengthen democracy in the city and state and the voters and taxpayers have suffered. They have there- | by failed to do their duty to the citizens, for Omaha has suffered while the demo. crats have prospered. “What have they done to deserve re- clection? Not one thing. They have shown no wisdom in administering the affairs of the municipal government, have lacked ef- ticlency and the employment of economy. have not lessened taxes and have passed no ordinances for the benefit of the public.

Gale, formerly of the Lincoln Daily Star, also made warm addresses, predict- ing a republican victory in the state and city of Omaha, as the result of their study of the present situation. People of State on Waich, “Out in the state the people have faith in- Breen and the rest of the ticket,” they said. A republican administration in Omaha for the next three years would be conducive to good business and good oltl- genship, and would make Omaha in the northwest what Kansas City Is in the southwest. The trouble with Omaha today s that the ecity is arriving nowhere on account of the fact that the democrats don't know how to run things.” Hearty endorsements for the republican mayoralty candidate and the whole repub- lean ticket were freely expressed by all the speakers. Besides those already men- tioned, those who made brief remarks were: N. P. Dodge, jr.; Bdgar A. Scott, Cqdet Taylor, Henry Ostrom and others.
