AFTER CAMPAIGN CHATTER.

In view Of the results Of the recent local
election the dervish conference committee on
appointments is preparing for a very busy
season. The magnitude Of tho work Of d.
vidlng the spells and seeing that the ap.
pointments 90 to the proper parties can
scarcely be appreciated by any one who has
not served on that committee. BY a tre-
mendous stroke Of enterprise and regardless
Of expense The Bee has secured the services
Of a mind reader who has prepared advance
copies Of the documents that arc to be pre-
scented to Council 125 and their contents are
cheerfully submitted to the public. This is
only the first installment Of several thou
sand that the numerous patriots intend to
prepare. The mind reader Of The Bee is
not necessarily infallible, but he claims to
be as accurate as any other mind reader in
the business.
Members Of the A. T. A. Conference Com
mittee-Gents: How long do you want a fell
ter to be a martyr? You have given Broatch
a vindication and | am just as much en-
titled to one as him. | am not as
big a thief as some you elected to office and
I've been out of my job as long as | can
stand it. DO you tink I'm going to run the
school business this winter on wind? II /
can not get my old position as dog drowncr
| want to be clerk to the mayor. Doc Sa-
vile and Bob Duncan will tell you about my
political ability, if you don't know of it yet.
Please let ne hear from you at once. | want
a job and a windication and | want the Job
any way, even if | have to get along for a
few months without the windication. Yours
for the flag and a job,
ISRAEL FRANK.
Gentlemen Of the Conference Committee,
A. 2. A.-Friends: | am an applicant for a
position as stenographer and court reporter
for one of the judges of the district court.
| have been an A. p. A. for some years. /
was the official stenographer at the trial of
Friend Winspear when he was acting presi-
dent of the state and was accused of having
sold out our order. He can tell you about my
capacity as a shorthand man. | have car
ried a revolver in anticipation of a Romanist
uprising until | have broken down my health
and worn out all my pockets. Hoping that
such earnestness and fidelity to the cause
VIII be appreciated and rewarded, yours in +.

-A' 1 u"i FN'NiAlS NhN appointment Is CITY
prosecutor. have been a d=vout follower
Of the cause and have not missed a day from
the corner of Seventeenth and Farnam
streets since the campaign opened. As
Police Judge-elect Gordon is conceded to know
no law l wish to urge that you consider his
feelings and appoint as city prosecutor a man
whose legal learning will not oyershadow
that Of the court. This is my chief claim to
your consideration. Yours in +. p. & p,
FRANK L. MUM.
Mem. Con. Com. A. p. A.-Gentlemen and
Friends: I am an applicant for a position
somewhere, some place under the adminis-
tration of some of our Friends. l have been
a jealous worker in the cause for years, and
expect to have the flag for a winding sheet
when l die. l am anxious for some good
place where | won't have much to do but
look pretty; that is my strong forte. l am
considered the ~prettiest boy in the Eighth
ward, and did great work for the school
board ticket among the ladies'. | would like
the place as secretary of the Board of Edu-
cation, where | would meet all the ladies',
but there is a good deal of work connected
with the place, and if you decide to give
me that job | wish you would give me a
good, hard working assistant | will be able
to do all the posing necessary. | have been
promised the position as secretary to- the
mayor, but my godfather, Wiley, tells me
that BrcatCh's promises are not much good
any way, and | am anxious to get something
out of the coming administration, and 50
appeal to you. | do not think you can afford
to overlook my claims for q place. | refer
you to Jim Allan, J. w. Furnas. Jim Win
spear, Cadet Taylor and Charley Unit. Yours
in the faith, VAN b. LADY.
p. S.-My middle name is Beauty, but
mode9ty compels me to use only the initial.

Gentlemen of the A. 2. A. Conference
Committee-Four years ago l appealed to
your committee in vain. | asked for any job
that would pay better than $40 a month, but
you did not find anything for me. | make
an appeal again. | have been untiring in
the work for the order, and am still in need
of a job. Times have been a little tough
and l am willing to reduce my former bid a
little, and will this year accept anything
that will pay over $50. Trusting that you
will be able to find something for me, /
remain, Yours eXpeCtantly, I
