South OMAHA March H.-Editor Omaha
BEE: At meeting which was held here
this evening it was decided that Pat Rowley
should be put up on the independent ticket
for treasurer. The reason for doing this was
that on the night of March II at the demo-
cratic meeting when they nominated the Off
GERS it was thought then that the office of
school treasurer was separate from that OF
city treasurer 1t was also stated at the
same meeting If both came under one head
ing that the nomination Of city treasurer was
to be reconsdered. And as +. Rowley had
decided TO run for the office of school treas
urer when he was offered the nomination for
city treasurer he declined. At the next dem
ocratic meeting, which was held one week
later, the question was brought before the
house and our chairman said in his
opinion it would not be wise 10 consider
the matter, as we have found out since our
last meeting that the city treasurer is also
exoificiO school treasurer, etc. Our chair
man, through his remarks, had 1t voted
down, and seeing that our friend Mr.. Row
ley did not receive justice we have decided to
place his name on the independent ticket for
city treasurer and exoificio school treasurer.
Yours VOTER.
