no POLITICS IN THE DEMONSTRATION
President Roosevelt VIII Review
Pageant from stand in Front Of
City Hall and No speech
IL Expected.

According to the plans Of the board Of
governors Of the Knights Of Ak-Sar-Ben
for the reception Of President Roosevelt.
September q, the president will find in
Omaha a little rest from his travels. II is
expected that the itinerary Of the chief ex-
scutive can be altered so as to bring his
train into Omaha at 5 o'clock in the after
noon. A { 6 o'clock 4 dinner will be given
to him at the Omaha club. After the din
ner, at which there will be no speaking Of
any kind, the president will be given an
opportunity to rest until s o'clock, when he
will be driven to the reviewing stand to
witness the parade. That stand will be
erected in front Of the city hall, which will
make the parade appear before the chief
executive after II has accomplished the
greater part Of its journey.
Because OF the large crowd which will
be present the line OF march Of the parade
has been EXTENDED over a wider scope than
In previous years. 1t will leave the den
promptly at 1880 o'clock, and is expected
to reach the corner Of Sixteenth and Cum
ing street half an hour later. On Six
teenth street the parade will move to How
ard, thence to Fourteenth, thence to Doug
las, thence to Tenth, thence to Farnam,
thence to Nineteenth, thence to Harvey,
thence to Fifteenth, thence to Capitol ave-
nue., thence to Sixteenth, thence to Cum
Ing, where 1t will end.
The pageant will have passed the re-
viewing stand In time to permit the presi-
Dental party to leave the city at 10: 80,
according to schedule. There will be no
speech made by the president unless he
desires to say something from the review
Ing stand before the pageant arrives at
that point.
No Politics in IL.
The board desires to emphasize the nom
political character Of the reception, as
there will be nothing of the nature Of poll
tics suggested. The committee Of the
board will Immediately start out to raise
the $4,000 necessary to defray the expense
which attaches to the parade to be given
in honor OF the president. It is absolutely
necessary to raise this money, as 1t is the
Intention Of the board to give the same
parade October 2, the time upon which It
is advertis ID, az many Of the people in the
country have made arrangements to come
on that day, and cannot come September
q.
{ the meeting at the den last night an
appeal was made for volunteers to take
places on the foa;s and to ride horses in
the parade. AS the first display is to be
made a week earlier than was expected,
the volunteers must get to work as soon
as possible. Ali knights who are willing
IN assist in this feature Of the work are
requested to send their names and ad-
dresses to Fred Metz. who has charge of
this work.
