/ Benjamin X. Severn, of town, has publicly
announced his candidacy for the nomination
of County Controller subject to Republican
rules. Mr. Severn is no stranger to the voters
of this county, having been elected as Con-
troller of the county under the act that was
subsequently declared unconstitutional. This
fact alone will be a strong factor in Mr..
Sevems candidacy, and the mannerin which
he conducted the office during his term saved
the taxpayers hundreds of dollars. The
people are not ungrateful, and their apprecia-
tion of an efficient official will attest itself,
no doubt, in his behalf
The announcement that Hon. B. j. Mona
CHAN has retired from the Democratic county
chairmanship appears to have been premature
1t is true nevertheless, that he is contem-
plating the step, but its consummation will
depend upon the result of his visit to the
west, which will be made some time this
month and in time to enable him to get back
and call meeting of the county committee.
Should Mr.. Monaghan's interests in Iowa re-
, quire his personal attention for period ex-
tending into the approaching campaign he
will resign the craftsmanship. A meeting of
f the county committee will be held before the
resignation is acted upon, should such step
become necessary. Among the names men
, toned in discussion as to probable successors
are F. P. Spiesc, of Tamaqua; George j.
Wadlinger, Esq, Pottsville; Frank S.

Charles Graeber, Ashland John A. Bechtel

THE OMAHA CONTROVERSY


be Settled in Court.
OMAHA, Aug. 6-Tho answer of the A
p. A police commissioners TO the petition
of the regular fire and police commission
ers was filed in the district court yester-
day. The hearing will be in the nature
of test of the constitutionality of the
new law under which the A. p. A. is
acting
The petition claims that premedltated
plan was arranged by certain individuals
TO render the law void, and that for
further prosecution Of said plan, Mayor
George Bemis procured a pretended in
junction to be issued pretending TO re-
straining the city council from approving
the defendants bond, but said injunction
was and is illegal and void and of no effect
and was procured with the fraudulent pur-
pose and design of preventing the defend
ants from having legal status herein and
in pursuance of the aforesaid corruption,
as defendants are informed and believe
Defendants further say that no pro.
Ceedings have been commenced by sai6
plaintiffs to test the rights of those de-
PENDANTS under the said law by quo war
rauto, and that the said plaintiffs have
not commenced the same, and that the
allegation in the said plaintiffs petition
that said plaintiffs are about to and will
commence said proceedings and pursue
them diligently are without foundation
and are not made in good faith, but are
made for the purpose of deception, so that
said plaintiffs may pretend to be acting
in good faith in that regard"
The answer concludes: 'If any dual
board of commissioners exist it will be
because said plaintiffs set aside the law"
