The socialists held their state. county
and congressional conventions lskt nivht IN
the Thurston Rifles armory, naming n full
state ticket, a partial ticket for Douglas
county and placing before the voters OF
the second congressional district a candi-
Qate 1or congress. Like all socialist con-
Ventlons, these were mass and not DELEGATE
meetings. About 800 people were in at
tendance at the state convention, which was
the hrst held, but the number diminished
AFTER that and at the county convention,
the last held, only about one-third Of these
were present.
The state convention named O.. Christian
son or Plattsmouth for the national COM
mftteeman from Nebraska. II then EN-.
powered the state executive committee to
NIL any vacancy which might occur ON the
state ticket.

All the state nominations were msde

convention came when James R.. Burleigh

making a personal attack upon Mr.. Burleigh,

ception to placing a lawyer on the ticket

The state convention, which was Pre-.
sided over by J. p. Roe, adopted ths name
Of the Socialist Party Of Nebraska as the
oficial title.
Immediately upon the adjournment Of the
state convention the Second congressional
convention was called and nominated Ber-
nard McCaffrey Of Omaha for congress. Mr..
Mccartney is a resident of the, Ninth ward
OF Omaha He has lived In the city ali his
life, TAayipg been, born about two miles
outside OF the city limits in1 1866. Mr.
Mccartney is a solicitor by occupation and
an active socialist worker. He Is a speaker
OF some local repute. In discussing the
probable strength Of the socialist ticket in
Douglas county this fall the nominee for
congress said the party would poll 5000
votes. He bases his estimate upon the
general sentiment which he finds among
the people. In 1900 the Second congress
sional district gave 2s1 votes to this ticket,
but Mr.. Mccartney holds that the party has
made big strides since then.

so dun that it quiets the nerves. do
not know anything about the desperate
leaps and inshoots and outshoots of the
engine as it darts along the track. Let
US see just how fast this is, and for the
sake of convenience we will take the
slower clip of sixty miles an hour in
order to avoid the use of fractions. In
an English mile. the kind used in the
United States, there are $3.50 feet, or
1850 yards, allowing three feet for a
yard. Sixty miles an hour means a
mile a minute. or $3.50 feet in sixty
seconds. One-sixtieth of $3.50 is eighty
eight. So that a train travelling at the
rate of sixty miles an hour travels
lightweight feet every second that 1t is
running at this rate of speed. Put in
a different way, the train Is covering
twenty-nine yards and one foot in a
second of time. A second is not very
long period OF time. II is no more than
the tick of a clock. though there are
clocks and watches which tick at
more rapid rate of speed. Covering
eighty-feet a second is moving rather
rapidly. There are but few things In
the air, away from the friction Incl
dent to contact with steel rails and up
grades. that move as rapidly. Come to
think of il, a man wouldn't be SO very
long in going around the world at the
rate of mile a minute. And yet men
talk glibly enough about trains moving
