Goverror Shallenberger, who signed the 8 o'clock closing law after it had been enacted by the democratic legislature on the demands of Arthur Mullen, has dipped into Omaha democratic politics through this same Friday, Mullen. It was Mullen who called the recent meeting of the Omaha democratic city committee at which four candidates were endorsed for membership on the Board of Fire and Police commissioners. Mullen, sepremanting Governor Shallen- berger, came up from Lincoln, rounded up a few of the governor's faithful and called a meeting at the Paxton hotel. He ordered the democrats to get together and endorse candidates for the police board But Mr. Mullen did not make known the object of his visit to all of the demo- cratic committee. Instead, he called in a few of those he could depend upon and then refused to permit other members of the committee to get into the meeting. it is reported from the Inside that mem- bers of the committee bucked and kicked strenuously, but the agent of the governo insisted, with the result the endorsements were made. One democratic candidate for membership on the police board insists that Mullen lost out and the committee refused to en- dorse his candidates, while others Insist that Mullen won out for his chief. After the meeting Mullen went to the Henshaw, where he was the object of bit- ter criticlsm a* the hands of & bunch of irate democrats, but as the agent of the governor had accamplished his puurpose, he refused to be put out by the denuncla- tion and went back to Lincoln happy, to report his success to the governor. boosters.
